> Realistically only US and Russia have the capacity to do 3 attacks like this simultaneously.

I'm no military expert but why? From reading about the pipeline, sections of it are between 80 meters and 110 meters deep which technical scuba divers can reach and the subsea blasts were equivalent to 100kg of dynamite.

Seems to me basically any country could wrangle up a decent sized boat, a few technical divers, 3 100kg bombs, and some time delayed chargers and planted bombs on the pipelines weeks or even months ago.
Wasmtime: A fast and secure runtime for WebAssembly
When I started as a CS graduate, I was thrilled to be on a complex project as a lowly maintainer. I dove into that code and learned how stuff worked. People avoided those areas because it was too dirty, scary or hard sounding. That's the story of my career. Pick a popular project and be a fish in big pond or pick something others stayed away from and own it.

Our future is going to be a shitstorm of breakage. Covid should have taught us a lesson but we're going to go on while infrastructure (physical and virtual) starts to break and no Top 10 grad is going to want to touch it. You're not going to have a choice about plumbing or roof leaks - nobody is coming for a week and you are on your own.

On your knees - I look at my classmates now and consider HS sports to be child abuse. My coworkers talk about their kids surgeries. Those 4 or 5 people boarding your plane in wheelchairs now? It's going to be 3X that in a decade. But that'll be fine, because you'll have to wait a couple hours for the rare pilot to show up.
Doesn't this increase scripts attack surface?

I'm big on personal Integrity.

It doesn't seem to win me any points.

In fact, it seems to actually count against me, as I'm sometimes accused of being "snobby."

Ah, well...

STORY TIME:

A few months after I had been promoted (the first time) to a manager, one of my new employees was hired by my boss' boss, while I was out on medical leave.

When I got back, I found out that he had made a promise to the new (now hired) employee, that he was not "legally" allowed to do, and had to let the guy do it (because he promised).

He asked me to sign it off.

I declined, sure that my job was in jeopardy.

Surprisingly, he took it well, and it was never mentioned again (until now). He actually had a lot of Integrity, and was uncomfortable with it (it was a mistake; not deliberate).
The scale of this on the thread is astonishing. I hired in the past through marketplaces. One particular candidate started strong but then his productivity began to taper off. Camera off in more and more meetings. Less availability. And this was a full time position! I haven't been able to prove it, but a very similar profile photo showed on LinkedIn as working full time for a different company. Whether or not he was working 2 jobs, more, or even being a face of a dev shop, all are possibilities. All I know is this individual was not just working full time for us.
I actually wish programs do not put content in the Title bar area. The title bar area is meant for users to move the Window around.

Try opening Microsoft Word, make the window narrow and drag the window. You have to hunt for a small bit of empty space in the title bar or you have to understand you could drag on the Title text, Search box and the Sign in Username, but not the Auto Save text, Upcoming Features icon, or the Ribbon Display Options icon.
"...he (or she)" couldn't help smiling at the instinctive political correctness.

Reminds of of a story about a person from US visiting South Africa and at some point referring to black people in the audience as African Americans.
That’s fair, but I’d argue those concerns are separate from the expectation of whether or not it’s reasonable to conduct an interview for a remote position on-site.
I have plenty of money for these tools but what I can't afford in modern day America is a shed to put the tools in, a garage to work on my car in, and an alternative means of transportation to get me to the parts shop while I take 3 days in my off hours trying to figure things out because I'm inexperienced.
I think you are grossly underestimating the ability of agencies. If you think only 1-3 countries could actually pull off something like this, then you are wrong.
You could make an incoming WebSocket message behave much like an incoming HTTP request: The DO worker starts running, reads the message, runs any `event.waitUntil` work to completion, and goes to sleep. Let your runtime unload DO workers while holding on to their WebSocket connections.

That would mean maintaining "chatroom" state in memory wouldn't be enough, the DO worker would have to always write it to the durable store, to be safe to unload.

You'd have some sort of a "WebSocket connection ID" that could be used as key for storing state, and when the next message comes in, the worker would use that key to fetch state.

EDIT: And the ability to "rejuvenate" other WebSocket connections from their IDs, so you can e.g. resend a chat room message to all subscribers.
>"If our future does shift towards thin-clients and web-browsers"

Please no. I like to control what I have. No way for me to be fed by thin client. Sure I do not mind web apps / services where it makes sense (banking for example). But the possibility to be suddenly cut off for whatever reason (maybe my app provider does not like my political views) - fuck that. Or when everything goes through some portal what will prohibit from them jacking up subscription fees sky high? I understand by many developers wanting to use webapp hummer for everything but I think they're digging their own grave
What exactly are the obstacles prohibiting multiple tenants from running rust/java/c++ on the edge?
tl;dr Both sides are the same.

> The leader of the Republican Party – former President Donald Trump – has declared that Biden Democrats are an enemy of American democracy. A significant majority of Republicans believe that this is true.

I don't remember him ever specifying Biden Democrats. I'm pretty sure he has included some non-Trump Republicans too.

But, I am a fan of electoral reform, Ranked Choice Voting or similar and more democracy generally.
We're talking about web apps that are specifically intended to be installed locally and look like native apps. What are those "important differences" in this context?

(and note that you can still use PWA in the browser if you want to, and thus deny it this ability)
It's certainly cool, but don't make more of it than it is. It's merely pointing out that with a given set of axioms, there will be questions that cannot be answered. It's not a statement about the Real World Truth, but about the models we use.
It's kind of impressive that one can still run the same .hta app even on Windows 11 according to the wikipedia article:

> HTAs are dependent on the Trident (MSHTML) browser engine, used by Internet Explorer, but are not dependent on the Internet Explorer application itself. If a user removes Internet Explorer from Windows, via the Control Panel, the MSHTML engine remains and HTAs continue to work. HTAs continue to work in Windows 11 as well.
You thought that going 100% remote wouldn't have any drawbacks... You apparently thought wrong LOL

Check out 'Acid brushes' for use with IPA.
Great breakdown… with some interesting results and a ton of effort.

Are there any open benchmarks like this for all models that are actually runnable like the data exposed in https://github.com/syhw/wer_are_we but with some of your additional metrics?
I agree up to... new parts shouldn't need cleaning. And cheapo hobbyist-grade RF and audio connectors often have a weird chrome + some kind of oil or varnish surface finish that just won't clean off or solder and flux is a godsend for those.

That said, I let someone borrow my bottle of liquid flux about a decade ago and have never bothered to replace it.
"You can give a short person a step more easily..."

Once you get into the territory of cognitive abilities, it is the other way round. Making a dumb person smart is nigh impossible, while you can dull a bright intellect with all sorts of external interventions (various medications or drugs come to mind).
pytorch is using shaderc_combined.a.

There's a shaderc_combined.pc in shaderc, but it doesn't lists glslang or spirv as dependencies, even though shaderc uses glslang and spirv data structures and functions. Errrrr. How's that supposed to work?
Consider avoiding 3rd party screening solutions and put in the effort up front to talk to candidates in detail. Asking people to go through such hoops before they can even talk to a tech person from the company will put many good people off.

> Inflation is high

Current inflation has been about 0 in the last two monthly reports.

The headline 12-month trailing figure is still high because “12-month trailing”.
Looking at your comments, it seems you are merely defining infinity to what you want it to be.

Which is fine. It is, after all, what the mathematicians did.

But then taking your definition and insisting other definitions are wrong - that's problematic.
IETF Last Call for QUIC Version 2 has started
My comments are very revealing about the reality of the work world at mediocre aka most companies.

If you get a big enough group of people there are going to be some people with machiavellian tendencies or at least some that read bad advice on the internet about how to get ahead at work and try to apply it with clumsy gusto. You will look like a real fool to your boss the CEO if you are giving information to these type of people and they try to use it for their benefit.

I may be painting too dark a picture due to the focus the comments have on a single sentence. Overall I had good relationships with the vast majority of people that worked for me. I know this because I still have contact with most of them even though we have almost no chance of ever working together again. You are deluding yourself if you think there are no bad apples out there or that people having problems in their personal life may try to pull manipulation at work to get ahead or however they see may solve their problems.
Same situation, hardly anyone believes me that I'm skilled in construction, electrical, plumbing, electronics, and car mechanics in addition to my IT skills, because hardly anyone actually tinkers with things or repair them. Meanwhile, I always followed my dad's advice (who was doing construction when I grew up) that you should invest your time and money in tools and knowledge, not in disposable things. I can disassemble, repair, and reassemble nearly anything, and thanks to that have built my own high quality things, repaired many older high quality things, and generally structured my life around "buy it for life" with repairability as part of it.

Unfortunately, the one exception to above is laptop & phone, where I buy Apple products because they are just clearly the superior option, but unfortunately are not very repairable at all. Nonetheless, I kept my iPhone 8 going until just recently where I finally bumped to an iPhone 14 Pro, and I have kept my 2013 MacBook Pro going and am still using it, although it may be replaced soon.

I really wish things were built to be repairable, but like you I have long suspected (and cursed) the engineers who design products have never actually tinkered with them so don't even consider this as part of the design. They are only optimized for assembly because there is a business cost reason to do so, but repairability doesn't matter to them.
Now quell our concerns with the same rhetoricals but in the top 0.1% range, like for, say, Amazon.
It's a real priority internally. As is accessibility. We want our product to be useable by the widest range of people and via APIs. And we want it to be easy to use.
I really hope you're right. If they start adding more user-hostile stuff in CPUs and firmware it may not matter what we're using for an OS. Intel and AMD are basically the entire market and having just two companies with that much control over our computing freedom is a problem.

HDCP strippers will probably keep working, but committing crimes like circumventing DRM only gets riskier as our computers log and report back connected devices, what we're doing on them, and companies can buy up our purchase histories.

I do admire your optimism, but I've seen our freedom increasingly restricted over the course my own lifetime too. For example, the idea that Microsoft was overstepping their boundaries and taking inappropriate liberties with our computers has been around since Windows 95, but there was a time when I never thought we'd see a day where MS was openly snooping on user's personal files or plastering ads all over their OS yet here we are.

Don't underestimate surveillance capitalism and the desire companies and governments have to restrict what we're able to do with our own devices.
For some reason, public technical forums often seem to develop that way.

The Arduino official forums, for example, are filled with toxic people who are often fairly skilled but whose replies nearly always drip with condescension. It's to the point that when I'm searching for a problem and find a discussion on their forum, I already expect to see it, and I'm nearly always right.

I'm sure there are other similar forums.
bash isnt posix???

if bash isnt posix then wth is? if you told me "British English isnt actually English" I'd be less surprised than bash and posix.
They're considered bad because they're old technology, and that newer and better tech exists. Floppies and faxes might not be shiny and glamourous or require other peoples' computers to work, but they do work. And well.

The tech world pushes the narrative that everything new is better, and that everything old (or older) is for dinosaurs or should go the way of the dinosaurs. Because, you know, progress and innovation and all of those buzzwords.
Wow... honestly I'm just amazed at the audacity considering the hoops I've had to jump though. Doesn't' seem at all worth it. I guess they're just banking on it being too much of a hassle to do anything about it but if that happened to me I would clear my day to get to the bottom of it and put an end to it, lol.
I believe up to a few years ago it was the original Rosetta stone, but when I last visited 2-3 years ago it was just a copy (with a sign explaining why).

I'm not really familiar with math beyond linear algebra and googling was not very helpful; could you please give an example of an obviously incorrect result enabled by the axiom of choice? No need for detail, just the name of an example is good enough for me.
Then your kitchen (and laundry room, etc) would have to be properly designed and built, with drains, and a floor sloped to them, waterproof and mold proof materials.

Maybe even a sub-panel so the major appliances and each wall outlet were each on their own circuit and you could plug in a waffle maker and toaster oven on the same wall without popping a circuit breaker.
> This makes zero sense to me. What does Russia get by destroying their own pipeline?

1. To do the repair EU needs to lift sanctions

2. Gas prices spiked = short term monetary gain

3. Not so subtle message: hey Norway-Poland nice pipeline you opened here today, you should hope that nothing bad can happen to it.

Sticky positioning on mobile devices is rarely a good experience. (Though it might be my tiny phone screen.) I would love for it to get special treatment on mobile so it could always be dismissed or something.
The good thing is that Java is incorporating the proven features of other languages. It has gotten records, pattern matching (better than Kotlin's), and in the latest release, virtual threads with structured concurrency, better than async/await, and also better than golang as it lacks structured concurrency.
I'm being pretty good faith about this, I just don't appreciate people who can't read.

The theoretical benefits to society from distributing people's IP for free is that people who otherwise couldn't afford the money for a book or song or piece of software are able to use it.

Of course, it becomes impossible to support yourself as an indie producer of (software/music/literature/etc) in a world where your work can be taken for free. That reduces the number of people who can participate in the creation of that sort of thing to hobbyists and large businesses that are capable of protecting their IP through other avenues.

Getting rid of intellectual property rights is a short sighted exercise and all you end up doing once you've run through the trove of contemporary and historical IP is impoverishing the world to a much greater degree by destroying incentives for creators to create new things.

The only solutions that I've heard defenders come up with is some version of <hand waving> "it doesn't matter, people will still produce art" Yeah, people will produce, but like 1/10th what they could if they can't make a living off it or aren't trust funders.

Current copyright is life of the author + 70, which is too long. Still, even in that situation, those who wouldn't otherwise have access to those books will eventually get it for free as works enter public domain. If you want to argue that we should drastically reduce the length of copyright, I'd agree with you. But pretending that IP theft doesn't matter is naive.
The problem is that you hire someone legit that could pass any verification, but the person you talks to once hired is not longer the candidate.

If you don’t notice it on day one, it’s almost impossible to detect it afterwards. The fake dev could be somewhat competent even and do a great job.
Those problems are also realistically an issue for native apps. The internet is your distribution platform regardless of if the web is your target.

I would hope that the industry could work together to provide a comfortable cross-platform app development experience, but none of the big players bought-in. So now the web is our only option, and they're the ones to blame.
If you want to use their "Access" or "Zero Trust" product from the main dashboard, I get about 8 redirects, ~12 seconds of delay and it launches a whole another bloated JS app which has different aesthetics, built by a separate team and has no relation to the main dashboard patterns.

They need to streamline their UI. There is much that needs to be done.
There’s also nothing about the physical universe to suggest that it is finite, or that it cannot contain infinities. It’s simply an open question.

> If infinity was an actual number (having a size), it would need to be extrauniversal

What does the universe or its physical extent have to do with the nature of numbers? A number is simply a concept, or idea, not necessarily a physical thing. We imagine things that aren’t physical all the time.
Fun fact, even though most of the world pronounces it "angstrum", "Ångström" should actually be pronounced "ongstrum" (as the Swedish still do).

> I'd encourage you to make friends with a company owner in the $1-10 million per year range.

To be fair to the person you replied to, I think we can assume this kind of company was not the category they were thinking of. Many companies with less than $10 million annual revenue are struggling to stay afloat.
the name "Yeah Write" probably didn't sit well with many people
The fumes come from the flux, and they're not that great for you in quantity.

Soldering temperatures will not vaporize lead or the metals in unleaded solder.

There is also some conjecture that the fluxes used in unleaded solder produce more aggressive fumes.
I think yes, obviously.

The morally questionable situation is where you publish code under GPL, allow community contributions on the code on the condition that the community contributors sign a document transfering copyright to you (without payment or anything like that) and then also use those community contributions in a closed source product you sell.
Unlike the native app you probably won't have to worry about web page encrypted your files and asking a ransom.

The point of controlled inflation is to ensure this isn’t possible.
Maybe the progressives of Santa Cruz could have figured out a progressive way to build housing before the ways with the most money won. Or maybe they could have imposed at least the requirement that large apartment buildings be attractive or maybe to NIMBYs all apartment buildings are ugly sin.
Everyone knows they have the capability to do it. What prevents them from doing this is that if they do it, NATO will start sinking russian submarine in the north and baltic seas and we are in a shooting war. So I really don't see the point.

> For remote work we require video interviews and cameras on during meetings.

I can understand interviews, but once a person is part of the team and team members have met with him often enough (with the camera on) to recognize his voice, what is the point of having the camera on?

> I know some people don't like this, but it improves communication and team cohesion in a noticeable way.

This is one of those things for which there is no True Method. Yes, a lot of people have better team dynamics with the camera on. And yes, a lot of people have worse team dynamics with it on. Mandating one way or the other is suboptimal.
I like my Metcal and wouldn't be without it. But by most accounts the '936 clones do fine with real Hakko tips.

A lot of technicians seem to like to have temperature knobs so they can dial the temperature around instead of swapping out for an appropriately sized tip: this works of course except when it doesn't.
