I have some doctors in my family and they told me that when their system switched to Epic, Epic sent a consultant to sit in their office for months and answer questions because every new user complains about UX.
They froze the bank accounts of some Freedom Convoy donors.

The worse part of it is that some are denying that it happened, even though the Deputy Prime Minister made an official announcement about it.
This is a pretty old product and idk if they are still being sold, despite that page. I wonder if the thread title should include a date, and what it should be. It would be at least 5 years back.
One thing about an employee being on the board, especially if it is a large company, is that the board is not going to be where the real decisions are being made.

Many of the board members are together a lot outside the board. Many board members serve on the boards of several different companies. These board members likely see each other at expensive charity events and political events and cultural/art events. Their kids likely attend similar private schools or colleges. They will often go to the to the same ski resorts in Colorado or Switzerland.

Having a board member who is not part of that socio-economic class, sounds nice in theory, but in practice will get left out of the real decision making and real discussions.
I spent a fruitless few minutes trying to find out about the company 'Ye' before realising this is a person.

I have a lot of love for framasoft, but beware that they have limited resources and have in the past closed down or geofenced services I was relying on.

I think Codeberg's co-op style governance/funding makes a lot of sense w.r.t sustainability.

A reminder that Framasoft's a worthy cause to donate to if you are looking for causes to support!
These are all valid. However, if only nuclear can get us past "bottleneck events" (e.g., oil supply chains falling apart due to deglobalization or the world's oil running out, either of which would (or possibly will) cause catastrophic effects), then that supersedes #2 and #3, and probably #1 as well in most analyses.

I'm not well-versed enough in hard evidence to assert that we absolutely need nuclear to make it through bottleneck events. But it's plausible that we do. And so we shouldn't rule it out unless there is high-certainty evidence we don't need it.

In other words: I think the burden of proving that nuclear is unnecessary is on the anti-nuclear crowd. I've heard plenty of arguments that wind/solar will be enough, but haven't seen an analysis that seems to prove it based on numbers. (If you know of any such analysis, please share!)
> I’ll go against the grain..

I think it is also because most of us never had to work two jobs out of necessity. So we just assume that one is supposed to have only one job.

Unfortunately, I have met many people who had to do multiple jobs in order to survive. Especially, when they had a family, and wanted to provide them better opportunities. It is pretty standard operating procedure below certain income levels.

I don't see anything wrong with 2 full-time jobs as long as one is actually performing and working 80 hours. I knew people who worked even longer hours out of necessity.
Meltdown is a specific type of catastrophe (overheat and fuel rods literally melting). So being proof says nothing about other kinds of leaks.
Nuclear and solar both have about 1/10th the carbon emissions of natural gas, and 1/20th the carbon emissions of coal.

It's tree moss that is the larger risk apparently. It 'breathes' particles and keeps them. Wild boar love it; you shoot a wild boar, you have to get it tested with a Geiger counter to make sure it's safe. Like mercury in salmon, boar are a concentrator for fallout!
Disclaimer: My Epic experience is around a decade old.

I never saw a riot, but I definitely saw providers who hated Epic when it was installed. As in people literally screaming at the top of their lungs at IT nerds. I saw a few contributing factors:

1. Epic supports making all the technically-mandatory-but-not-mandatory-if-you're-in-a-hurry data actually mandatory, so providers have more typing and less ability to just get stuff done when needed (which minimizes agency).

2. Related to above, Epic will make the updates for any new regulation, which increases the amount of data providers need to collect.

3. The customizability of the Epic UI and workflows for each type of visit was completely insane; many permutations of steps in a visit had to be supported which meant a huge maintenance surface with ok coverage rather than an opinionated workflow for each visit that could be optimized and improved over time.
All five large reactor disasters occurred with reactors that also had fail-safes that rendered them theoretically safe. In the case of Three-Mile-Island, unlucky technicians had to work very hard against the reactor's system to sustain the failure.
I really liked this. Made my day. Very nice job with layering!
This is likely a recognition of a hit and ignorance of misses. If the friend was suggested before then you probably wouldn't notice. But there's still a lot here that even me with little information can give reason to suggest that friend. For one, you mention that it was an old mutual friend. Facebook is going to use the metadata (you talking to your friend) and search for potential mutual connections. But there's more. If that friend recently talked with that other friend (likely a prompt for that discussion), Facebook knows (either by GPS or by mutual conversation on one of their platforms, or even a friend of that friend connection).

I'm not trying to say that Facebook isn't reading your messages (I doubt they do tbh, because ->) but rather trying to demonstrate that they don't need to in order to make these creepy connections. This is the importance of metadata. Data you may not even know about!

Think about it this way: a private investigator sees who you talk with, how long, where you go, etc. But they don't have the actual record of your conversations. The PI is working on metadata. We find this creepy and invasive because we can recognize how this information can be used to gather intimate aspects of our lives. Companies like Facebook are essentially doing the same thing but at scale. And you can probably imagine how the scale both helps and hinders this invasion (but likely overall helps).
I will agree insofar as webdev seems to proliferate use of magic. ASP.NET core also uses a ton of it, which I hate as well. I'm not sure why that one particular area draws the people who love magic for their tooling, but it at least partly explains why I wish I could just hide in a backend hole and avoid 90% of it (Dependency Injection can be very full of magic as well but that's another tech tool I wish would go away).
While this is true (btw, Azure as well has a managed offering) the complexity is not the only issue. Cost!

The article is basically advocating, "if you have more than one service, you need K8S", and sticking your app on Kubernetes in the cloud (managed or not) is a huge cost upgrade from a single or handful of servers.
It is what swyx said.. cardinality not in the mathematical sense.. but the fact it does not exisit, there is exactly one instance of it or there are many instances of it. Going from one to another means refactoring/through testing as there would be side effects all through the system.
White collar jobs tend to really be about the connections between people. It sounds like UW has a placement program with all the connections on rails and ready to run students through.
You're asking why a Seattle located university has a high degree of placement into a suite of companies with a high presence in Seattle?

Sure. San Jose is not Seattle. Nor S.F. but, Seattle has massive presence in FAANG doesn't it?

I'd be interested if the % varies for Microsoft and Boeing: that might show if the effect is out of scale.

There's also a long tail effect of hiring staff from x who gain seniority and then hire staff from x because it's a known quantity.

And with a massive ICT sector people from UW can cut their teeth in junior roles close to home after graduation, get their chops and then swing into FAANG with good credentials and experience behind them.

MIT and Boston might be similar.

Guess which university close to the seat of government (cough George Washington uni) has an amazing track record of placement of graduates into think tanks and lobby groups...
This is misrepresenting the article, which is clearly relaying the artist’s self-belief and identity, not trying to claim that the artist objectively had supernatural powers.

Hence “As a clairvoyant and mystic,” which is a recognition of spiritual belief, and identical to any generic “As a <believer in specific religion>” in format. Much like writing, “As a musician”, does not actually specify any actual musical talent. They could be really terrible at it. In fact this describes much of the music industry.

The very same sentence then goes to on to confirm that it is entirely about the artist’s beliefs: “Af Klint believed that her abstracts were painted under the direction of higher spirits.”

Occam’s razor, people.

As an example - there are a lot of smart people at Tesla, and there have been for years. If you'd have put me in charge of it 10 years ago it would be dead. Dead dead dead. Elon makes a big difference. He's done it several times. Some people actually are the differentiator.
Not all jobs are office jobs.
Haha yeah, been there. I forget all the details, sadly, but there was some long-present bug with how the frontend architecture word in the dev environment that would keep the changes from being propagated. But every member of the team had set up a workaround so that, on their machine, it would load the correct assets some other, undocumented way, so they wouldn't notice the bug.
right, things are not perfect, and people make mistakes, but that doesn't contradict my claim because it should still be possible to object to the takedown and take measures to get the host to reinstate the content if the IP claim was wrong. in the US, in the same situation there might not be a recourse.

Nice read, thanks for that!

However, I would say it doesn’t emphasise issue, from React’s perspective, enough.

Languages like C++ or Rust, where pointer/reference definitions are required, has an advantage that you won’t miss the fact that something has pointer.

Worthy mention - `additionalProperties` property of `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps` ESLint rule, allows to define hooks which requires referential stability for dependencies. Personally, I’ve yet to use it.

I’d posit it’s quickly getting easier to live without a car than without a smartphone in the US.

Plus, even if you live in an area where a car is required you have the option to opt out and move (housing crisis aside), which isn’t an option to avoid smartphone requirements.

Yikes.
Based on the fact that Berlin is planning for 2-3 hour* organized blackouts, I don't think they have enough electricity.

EDIT: Not 2 to 3 blackouts, 2 to 3 hour blackouts. When grid is overstressed.
That's also the first thing I think about. The disappearance of MH370 and the inability to find it combined with sea floor mapping always makes me wonder. I've always fantasized about the idea of autonomous seafloor mapping drones.
Some restaurants link to their non-optimized printing quality PDF. A few restaurants have made me download a 20 MB PDF, sometimes, while consuming my small and expensive roaming package.
Agree about the Elements. I was once enrolled in a small class that proved all of the props in order. For a given meeting, a set of props were assigned (fewer and fewer as they got longer and more complicated), and a student's name would be randomly chosen to prove the prop at a chalkboard without the book or any aides-memoires. One did not have to reproduce Euclid's proof exactly. We quickly learned the value of (a) making mistakes, and (b) being able to think things through logically. It was a transformative experience for me.
I've seen clips of them using the more esoteric electronic instruments like the Lyra 8 and the Resonant Garden, which may explain some of the interesting and uncommons-sounding FX you hear in their work.

I can't help but think you are right. There is so much negativity around micromanaging and yet... it seems to work sometimes. Many complaints about Musk, Bezos, Jobs micromanaging.
Most nuclear accidents are caused by greed, laziness and shortsightedness. Japan seems to be one of the few societies (possibly the only wealthy one) that doesn't suffer too badly from these issues. When I worry about nuclear power here in the UK, I don't worry about earthquakes, I worry to PMs cousin will get a billion pounds to build a containment unit and not do it. Or the reactor will need to be shut down but the CEO will decide to keep it running because safety and maintenance are just "cost centres"...
...you do understand that your "sensible" minds only decided to keep three reactors online for six months, right?

It seems like argument you have is that the "sensible" minds are agreeing with you, and a whole litany of name-calling for the people who advocated abandoning nuclear - who are largely the exact same people by the way.
Whether or not some or all of Kanye's claims are the most ridiculous things, cherry-picking and presenting one piece of bait and trying to associate everything Kanye has ever said with the same brush feels like a hell of a disingenuous way to argue. You can't just dismiss everything somebody said just because they were very wrong other stuff.

PS: I'm not going to say what's true or false about any of Kanye's claims here, but who the hell knows what goes on in the highest levels of Hollywood? This is a circle of people who felt zero shame publicly disparaging critics of Roman Polanski. And apparently the Harvey Weinstein stuff was common knowledge in Hollywood crowds for decades. If you think Kanye has little credibility, well, think about how Hollywood's credibility ought to be perceived.

Why is this a yearly cost? I don’t understand.

There’s already open source utilities [0] for users who aren’t proficient in Unix commands.

If anything this should be the definition of a one time fee.

You’re free to charge whatever you like, but it seems odd that anyone would pay you year after year to use your app.

It’s not the price, as $40 isn’t that much, but the value and principle of the thing.

While you're not wrong, the grandparent comment said that most of the "dark side" is not fully mapped, implying—at least to in reading of it—that the reason it's not mapped is due to it being the "dark side".

In reality though, our maps of the far side of the moon are as good as those on the near side.

> they resented features that controlled their time and their autonomy

Of course. Nobody likes being controlled by software. The computer is supposed to obey us, not the other way around. Software controlling humans is a violation of basic human dignity.
He's passionate about engineering and has a lot of energy which is why he's still working and wants to continue. I think his focus is on identity, worked for a few years before this as a support engineer for an enterprise software company which ended up moving to a different state (he liked that job a lot more). But he's had a spotty work history, taking up engineering late in life and starting his own IT company which shut down ~15 years ago.
The article states that the kind of PV charger they're using works under any light source, including artificial lighting.

It's about half as efficient at converting light into electricity as current best rooftop panels, and these ones are way thinner.
It's worth noting that oceanic water is actually very poorly mixed, with only the first 200m or so mixing well with the atmosphere, so the radioactive emissions likely wouldn't increase in the deep ocean water. On the other hand, that basically only lops a zero off your number.
At this level, I feel like theres dozens of well-designed 2D web-based intake forms that have fixed this problem without needing a backup human.

This seems to be more of a bad/incomplete implementation than a structural problem with robots/kiosks.
> How do you deal with this?

Isn't that the problem that kustomize is designed to solve? Flux even has a first-class declaration for "take this thing, then kustomize it". The `helm template` into git pattern could be extended to "helm template, write kustomize files, then version control both" since it would capture the end state as well as the diffs that were applied on top of the vanilla chart

I think the "maintaining our own version of the helm chart" is only painful if the helm chart itself is moving around a lot, versus they're using helm releases to carry changes to "--set image.tag=$(( tag + 1 ))" type thing
All the big tech company HQs regularly have protestors for random issues, some software-related.

Not actual physical mobilization but when the amount of mistreatment the team (and founder) behind Roam Research became too much, users started switching en masse and very vocally.

It was a lot of drama, I don't think I've ever seen a promising start-up blow the lead in this way. All because the founder thought himself to be the next Steve Jobs and thought that he had a defensible moat (spoiler alert: he didn't) so he could treat his users however he liked and charge them for five year plans without offering a road map.

> Lawmakers need to jump on this stuff ASAP

Maybe not as soon as possible, probably a lot of other problems that need immediate attention.

But some attention maybe? Nobody likes it if someone does a repost of a post, but some reposting could be seen as going "viral" so as a creator you're cool with it. If someone else does the whole going "viral" with your work, maybe it's less cool.

In spirit of the thread, if co-pilot generates some code to create a stable diffusion prompt explicitly for "Greg Rutkowski" art and it writes code your friend wrote for a small gig, well can you re-use his code for your own gig?

Can "Greg" even claim it was his art in your opininion, even though it's probably not a verbatim copy
If it's possible to peek under the ocean in realtime to any significant degree, I reckon it would be the single most sensitive government secret: it would enable tracking nuclear submarines.
That's one reason, but the big one is that it makes it easy to remote-power the sensors. It gives them a 4mA budget to Do Their Thing even when outputting a zero.
To be fair, hardly anyone ever used Bitbucket due to Mercurial support.

Some people probably used it because for awhile, pre-GitLab, it was the GitHub alternative with the most generous free tier for private repos.

However, the overwhelming majority of users probably use it because they're already in the Atlassian ecosystem due to JIRA.

It may sound odd, but you are not bolstering your argument here. The parent is arguing for a way to ensure that participation in society is not bound by one's ability arrange for unrelated physical objects other than cash and ID to participate. And that is before we even get to how much having a car and cell phone governs one's life in US. Not everyone believes it is a good societal structure.

Note that I am not arguing one way or another, but outright dismissal is not an appropriate counter argument.

You do a risk-benefit tradeoff. Here, the risk massively outweighs the benefit. So you have to be absolutely certain you're not mistaken. This is very different from activities with low probability risks and/or considerably larger benefits.
