More mobilization is impractical; the current mobilization seems to already be far more than the system can handle.

And as for straight out war...the war went hot in Feb. Russia has been holding nothing back in its (so far futile) efforts to defeat Ukraine on the battlefield.

And Crimea has been attacked many times already, it's clearly not a red line, nor has Putin expressed any clear "red lines". (Many red lines have been hinted it, many have been blown through without a response.)
I think he was just pointing out that Trent is pro-NATO/Ukraine and is not really an impartial source of news/information. Don't think he was implying anything wrong with it.
Similar experiences with Lufthansa. Using legal mechanism yourself it's an uphill battle, you could use something like airhelp if your flight got cancelled/delayed for long.

Regarding reimbursements they can't help, I'm waiting myself one from April and one from June. One flight hotels (police told passengers to leave airport and pay for hotels), other lost luggage. Impossible to get any information from Lufthansa after I sent my bills and demands.
At first I thought the original Macintosh screen was too small to use for meaningful work, until I fired up MS Word 5 and started writing. The display fits half a page at nearly 100% scale which made it perfect to just write, and the printed page would look pretty much exactly as it did on the screen.
In my experience on iOS actually preventing taking the screenshot doesn’t happen though. The app just gets to know it happened and can notify the user of options. Many apps do this, including jodel. Sure, it’s annoying, especially if you want to take multiple screenshots in a row.

Recording video of apps sometimes is blocked though.

It would be lovely to get vector screenshots someday. That contain the static UI state of a given moment with as much semantics as possible.
Both probably, but the off-brand a bit more. :-)

Uber doesn't really care about the customers. The customers are merely a means to an end in skimming as much cash as possible from drivers and investors alike while the Management Suite takes as large a salary and bonuses as possible.

In other words, Uber is basically a scam. It's not ever intended to make a profit. It will continue as long there are sucker drivers and sucker investors to hand over easy money to the top Management.
Sure, I know. But what is the use being angry about it? It is happening. You are looking for a socialist/basic income world but live in a capitalist one. That is the problem. If AI replaces (it already does) people that doesn’t create new jobs (it still does!), there is no other route than political. I will be dead and have (notably because of this) no kids, but still vote parties that understand this. Living in a country that requires working like you say is already not ok but, if AI moves on, will collapse.

An AI winter might happen though if we don’t move on from this place.

That's not exactly what the research says. It says that fund managers ask for more in fees than they earn you back in capital gains.

(Which is obvious: if they couldn't charge their customers more than they earn, they wouldn't offer their services in the first place -- they would just invest on their own.)

Even if you don't believe that trans women are women, it seems inarguably correct that they identify as women in spite of having been identified as male when they were born. You could complain about the vocabulary, I guess, but there's no set of vocabulary that won't upset someone.
Then don't run that software or don't buy that hardware in the first place? There are plenty of options here.

A TPMs main role in our current hardware ecosystem is to provide device identity and attestation. This has been driven by businesses that want an easier time to bootstrap hardware for their needs. Which means controlling what software is run on company owned hardware.

All of the FUD about lost of hardware freedom comes some from the fact that IT teams were tired of having to keep inventory and they needed a solution to enable the on boarding and off boarding of hardware. Look at what Apple is doing with their hardware and OS right now. It's not to take away more individual freedoms of their users. It is to help businesses and edu manage their Apple stuff stuff. The other vendors are trying to fix those pain points too.

Managed device attestation is the SBOM new new hotness of 2023 and you don't need to be a big business to take advantage of it.

Certainly!

But my understanding is that RMS created the free software ideal, formalized as the GPL, that an author freely sharing code with others can in turn require them to freely share any changes and improvements they make to it. If he wasn't the first to think of it, he certainly was the one to codify and popularize it. And it all makes sense to me when viewed through the lens of his frustrating printer driver experience.

This isn't strictly true for all, though.

Imagine you knew, 100%, a 20% bounce coming. You may be able to scraggle together a few hundred thousand, maybe a million, and do OK.

Another book recommendation (the Chris Voss book someone recommended in another thread is great too): Gervase Bushe’s Clear Leadership.

Curiosity is great, and it does lead to answers, but often it’s helped if it’s balanced by descriptiveness, in which you describe where you’re coming from – what you observe, how you’re experiencing it, etc. Skilful questioners move easily between the two, reducing defensiveness or anxiety. Particularly important where there’s a power imbalance.

This isn't obviously true. Taking 1% yearly of $100,000,000 (compounding) from investors is better than earning 15% yearly on investing your own $1,000,000 (compounding). (Or some similar charging strategy).
Well... That's not a point of previous post.
I worked in a team of one senior and several juniors (university students at that time, I was one of them). The senior was a guy that had been programming a one-man-show project for several years and then needed help. In this setup, the guy was respected by all devs and he cared for the product, meaning that he wouldn't accept anything. Also, it's important to say that this senior guy was the one who hired all the others, therefore he had already pre-filtered the less skilled.

However, the risk of being swarmed by PRs was there anyway. We did the following things that lead to the improvement of juniors without significantly compromising the quality of the code.
- We had an initial meeting where we agreed upon all the general rules and established a baseline for PR quality. (rrwo mentions such general rules in his comment)
- PR had two levels of code review. The first round was reviewed by a fellow junior dev who was to review it thoroughly. This round was focused more and code smells and easy-to-spot bugs. Note that all the code review comments should have a relationship to the baseline we had already established so it wasn't just opinions. The second round was done by the senior himself who made sure that the design and complexity is correct.

This way, the juniors learned from the seniors and from themselves. Ultimately,
- we improved ourselves in giving code review
- the gaps between juniors' skills shrunk
- senior still had the final say

On top of that, you can collect some contentious decisions and have a discussion about them, and incorporate it into the baseline.
Hence the word "broadly". MIT etc allow for Open Source code to be used in proprietary software, true.

Whether this is good or bad, depends on your point of view, and is very newanced.

For example I can use OPENSSL (MIT licensed) in a proprietary system, but I would argue that is better for end users than not. Having a few solid libraries in play is arguably better than a multitude of home-grown closed commercial libraries.

OSI is clearly not FSF. FSF persues a future with no proprietary software. That's a necessary stance for someone to have in the world, it sets a goal post. OSI seeks to make code that has maximal utility by being useful in open and closed environments.

MIT does not prevent companies contributing code, it does not hold back a project in any way, it just makes the code more widely spread and more "utilitarian".

Edit: so it does not eliminate "all" the benefits of Open source, it may remove some of them. Alternatively it may be a net gain if the software is actually used more.

Technically, yes, a company can fork OPENSSL, add features to it, and ship it closed. But why would they? Certainly if the did they remove no utility from openssl for everyone else.

Equally SQLite has a public domain license and that does not seem to have hurt it in any way. There are plenty of contributers etc.

For anyone interested in calendars, check the proto-Bulgarian calendar.

It is considered to be one of the oldest if not the oldest, and most accurate in the world by UNESCO.

There is a website that rebuild it from the ancient documents describing it, and it is compared head to head with the Gregorian calendar, you can also find the code on github, it is cool.

According to it we live in year 7527-th :)

No shame in that! My SO has one which replaced an '09 MBP a few years ago. I had one too and miss it dearly, should really fix it up so I can use it again. My main laptop is currently a 2014 MacBook Air which is definitely a downgrade. (Plus I have to keep my '07 MacBook handy in case I want to watch a DVD.)
One way to think about this: as a founder you charge your seed investors, whose capital you deploy, say 85% (preferences notwithstanding). Why wouldn't you do it all on your own and retain 100%? Capital inflow is a multiplier for your efforts, sometimes a gatekeeper too.
Most of the comments get fixated on the most and least expensive options in this (AWS where you pay through the nose / own DC where you'll get bad service from your institution and have to fight with hw procurement stuff).

When I was working on MRI data about a decade ago, there was another newer format .NII gaining traction. This was demonstrably easier to work with and the good thing was a lot of views (imagine a time series or fat-water separated information) & could simply be stored in its container format as opposed to Dicom.

I am not sure how well it might work for viewing on patient consoles, but it sure was a step ahead for making data portable.

Edit: NifTI format. I was forgetting the name.

I have been using go for maybe 6-7 years and couldn't care less about generics. However, I now have to admit I'm quite happy they added them and I used them a bunch of times already to clean up my code and make re-usable types/functions across our stack.

So was not having generics a deal-breaker? No! Are they useful? Yes!

didn’t bother to search their cars at the border.

Not entirely true. They had sniffer dogs going over all the cars, and Gordievsky was hiding in the boot of one. The MI6 agents "accidentally" dropped a few cheese and onion crisps by the car, plus the baby of one just happened to fill her nappy at that moment and the agent changed it next to the car. The sniffer dogs didn't stand a chance.

FWIW, apparently that baby is now a senior curator at a major London art gallery.

I went to boarding school from grade 5. You are probably picturing a fancy place with the "elite of tomorrow" walking around in smart school uniforms. My boarding school wasn't like that at all. It was located in a very small village, so small that it didn't even have a single shop. It cost like 250€ a month and you can accurately deduce the rest from that. Yes, some of the minders were clearly alcoholics. Yes, there were lots of troubled youths. Yes, some of the food barrels really did have "pig feed or millitary" stenciled on them. But they tried and on the whole they did a good job. I have to admit that in retrospect.

There are many activities you can do there. Painting, singing, pottery, metalworking, theatre, dance and all kinds of sports. There was even a warhammer table! This being Germany you can play soccer all day everyday.

I, however, was very cool, you see. I was so cool that I was too cool to do any of the activities on offer. So I spent my days on walks with my best friends just smoking and drinking and discussing how we would get rich. We did not get rich.

Now at 41 I am a non-smoker and learning to play soccer. If only I had played in my youth. If only I had been a person who wasn't repulsed by sweat and effort. If only I had the confidence to really try at something hard. If only I could have seen myself as someone with the potential for strength, for speed, as a team player. If only I had known myself a little better back then.

Now try running your own build of Linux on a phone, or similar devices. It most probably won't work, because the likes of Qualcomm, Mediatek, Samsung, Huawei, Apple have locked down the hardware so you can only boot digitally signed firmware that matches public keys fused into the device. And that firmware does the same when loading the rest of the OS.
They probably don't love the process, they just use it as an excuse to slack off and they're probably quiet quitting.

Most of the industry is like this, so most small companies don't have a chance at being able to afford productive people.

My personal solution to this problem is relying on expensive agencies in cheap countries. I consult with mid-large companies and they all have the same problems: unmotivated developers who don't own the product, product managers that spend all their time in meetings and parrots what PM at Google say. Nothing gets done so what I do is advise the CTO to start moving projects to outside agencies, to teams that are actually productive.

I don't think non-tech focused companies can build product efficiently but they're excellent places for slacking developers to work in. I worked in agencies as a youngster and it was 10x more challenging than working in a product company. There was also way less bullshit and I could make decisions without having to organise a company wide meeting on how we do X.

Startups are a special case: when people are paid in equity they tend to care more about the company and things can work.

I have a bias: I'm planning to start an agency at some point in the next 5 years (albeit I'm a throwaway so you can't reach me)
I read it similar to enforcing free speech; that doesn't mean making people talk, it means protecting it from violations. Enforcement of little "a" agile implies preventing more pomp and circumstance and growing into capital "A" Agile.

I actually made no claim about NHS in particular. I only pointed out that if the number of people (and heavy service users in particular, like old people) is increasing then not increasing the budget appropriately is the same as cutting it.

I don't know if it kept up or not, but the comment I replied to mentioned that in some years the budget was static so unless UK population somehow stopped growing or becoming older the effective budget per user has been effectively cut in those years.

But to your point, you may say population increased by 6% but you ignore the fact that thanks to life standards having increased there's also an ever-increasing number of old people who don't count as population increase but do increase the burden on the NHS.
