There is no clearer example of the divide between equality and equity, and the ways in which those two schools of thought are increasingly diverging.

Equality: remove bias as much as possible

Equity: intentionally introduce bias to achieve desired outcomes
I've been watching how Go and Rust tooling has been finding its way into the JavaScript ecosystem. I've been out of the PHP realm for about 10 years but I did find RoadRunner for PHP at one point. That's also an app server written in Go I believe. I wonder how this compares.
I can strongly recommend Fussel's (the author of this essay) book "The Boys' Crusade", which provides a very eye opening account to WWII. It is most likely a longer version of this essay (I haven't read this essay).

I can also recommend his book Poetic Meter & Poetic Form, but for different reasons.

Other books in the same vein:

- The Warriors: Reflections on Men in Battle by J Glenn Gray (Gray was a philosophy PhD and a 2nd Lieutenant in the war)

- War is a Force that Gives Us Meaning by Chris Hedges (Hedges was a war correspondent during the balkans and numerous other conflicts, this is much more interested in the psychological build up to war in common society, and its effects on society)

These books make me very pessimistic about human nature, but Nicholas Wade's Before the Dawn: Recovering the Lost History of Our Ancestors provides a nice antidote: the total number of people killed by warfare in the 20th Century, if we followed similar patterns to our prehistoric ancestors, would have dwarfed what actually happened. We are becoming less warlike, even if its not cured.

Let me guess, it's yet another AI article written by someone who's never worked in the field, repeating the same drivel seen in pretty much every other mainstream news outlet

If there's one thing I'll take out of this year, it's that I will NEVER read another AI article written by some journalist that's never even studied the subject matter and worked in the industry.

Every time I see one of these articles, I always read the author's bio before going any further. If I don't see any related degree or expertise, the article goes rightfully in the trash
LEOlabs operates its own radar systems that point upwards-ish. The "beams" you see are the fields of view of their radars. When an object crosses that field of view going at orbital speeds, LEOlabs tracks it and uses the partial trajectory information to figure out the orbit of the object. From there, it can potentially associate that object with existing objects in its own and other databases (the US Space Force, which operates its own radars, is one of the best-known).

It then sells that information to spacecraft operators, who may be using the orbital information to determine if their spacecraft has a risk of hitting another object in space, or to figure out where their spacecraft are in the first place (usually when they're not talking to the ground).
And what happens when one realizes that limiting sunlight, of course, is an incredible weapon against your adversaries. Or, god forbid, ampliflying sunlight?

And then, when the inevitable happens and it moves from theory to "you know ... actually ... our atellite could actually do that" and then to actually doing it against that really-evil-dude-that-totally-deserves-it du jour?

Or we do it first to lessen the economic impact of a cold not-very-well-oiled winter in Europe?

Plus, I'd like to point out that even when it goes perfectly smoothly, ironically, fixing climate change will make many climate change effects worse. For instance, currently meltwater is helping offset the draught in California (and in the nearly-1-billion-people Indus valley, and a hundred less important valleys). If we slow down climate change that meltwater contribution stops, today, almost entirely.

The same with many other effects. For instance the greening of the Sahara will stop, we will not only see less extreme weather, but less rainfall ... everywhere. And that will do a lot to prevent the countries from growing.
Intern is a very low-stakes job. Nobody expects an intern to be in charge. Try to do your best, to the best of your ability, and let whatever happens happen. Is it possible that something goes wrong and you get blamed for it? Yes, it is, people screw up and blame others for it. If you did your best - you're ok. Even if the management doesn't recognize that fact - ok, maybe you'll get fired. That's the absolutely worst that can happen. But you're an intern. There are tens of thousands of intern positions around, and many of them aren't managed by jerks that blame others for their failures, so you'd come out better off if that happens. But as likely, nothing bad happens and you'll leans something. Just relax, be ready to do what you can do, prepare as much as you can and if something is out of your hands and you can't do anything about it - don't worry about it.
Can anything save a bad boss?

Maybe every boss deserves to be matched with the team that makes all involved most-likely to mutually-succeed, even if it's a peculiar & unrepresentative bunch of people who can only work with each other.

And further, if that best-effort assemblage still consistently malfunctions, the boss, & the whole team, should be encouraged to find other roles and teams that have a better chance of succeeding.

Yeah, I was also taught the silly rule in school that you shouldn't say "said" all the time. I don't know where it comes from, but texts that use this rule extensively just read like what a schoolkid would write, not an actual author.

The point of careful and nuanced words is that you should use them where it matters. In many cases, especially in prose, it doesn't and "said" is more than enough.

(oh and also, despite its flowery language at times, Homeric language is full of repetitive turns of phrases too)
This, Nvidia competeing against their partners with Nvidia branded boards, and the evga article a few weeks ago make it seem like being in partnership with them must be dreadful.

These card makers now have to sit on inventory and reprint boxes and repackage everything?
they got greedy and every reviewer in existence called them out on it. The price is too high for a 4070 so they called it another 4080 no matter how different it was from the other 4080.

What brought this up was a constant and unending battle with our IT department over the use of our Endpoint security tool. It indexes the local disk so that you can query for file hashes across the enterprise at scale.

That means you want to be really careful on what parts of the OS you whitelist. A print queue folder has NO value being indexed and can cause performance issues. And this product persists in having a reputation for being the culprit, even though it hasn't been for more than 5 years.

What we're encountering though, is that the IT staff have NO bottleneck troubleshooting skills. They can't tell you a system is running slow because it's CPU, RAM, or I/O bound...they don't know that the underlying compute could be an issue, they don't know to check /var/log for hints that something might be wrong...they just point, rigidly, at the EDR saying 'it occasionally pops to the top of the process list, therefore, it's the reason the system is slow.'
I am pretty certain they must be dead reckoning the location with occasional updates.

WAN will usually require a password and second factor to get to the point where you can enroll your device. For example, if you lose your WAN device or need to login a second one, you’ll need credentials (username/password+second factor) to prove who you are to enroll new devices.

I opted not to use WAN for now because it feels like a lot of hassle to setup and most users aren’t going to bother enrolling. Who here loves getting non-technical users setup with SSH keys? I don’t.

When people are more used to WAN it’s going to be great. Is anyone using it today? I’ve never seen it used in production.
Cooling tech is like a shit-test for climate change absolutists.

The guidelines are targeted at phones and other long range transmission equipment. AirTags use Bluetooth and have a relatively limited range, a very low transmission power, and don't really do much at all until they get pinged by another device.

It's also been fairly well understood for a while now that Bluetooth is not a concern on flights, and it uses an ISM radio frequency which is specifically set aside so as to not interfere with things like planes and other critical communications infrastructure.
One of the things I found interesting about TUIs is that it forces your design to be on a grid, defined in units of characters. It's easy to make a column of fields that all line up on edge. If you want any spacing between fields at all, it forces you to make that spacing fit to character-width grid cells. So, in a way, it's a little easier to semi-accidentally end up with a clean, good-looking design in a TUI, if someone is being just a little thoughtful about their layout, than it is to be in a full raster-based GUI with pixel- or percentage-based positioning.

What I'd like to see are TUIs that embrace terminals running on large, high-resolution displays. We don't need to be constrained to 80 columns by 25 rows, or whatever.
These kinds of visualizations give you the impression that LEO is much more crowded than it actually is.
This looks extremely crowded - but reminds me of how apparently hard it was to find or bump into another ship crossing even a confined sea like the Med before sonar. With three dimensions here and more avoidance planning, even this level of space probably looks very empty still.
It is, of course, a power thing. Yes, there's an endless supply of porn, but the "real thing," especially if gathered without consent or explicitly agains their will, is "more satisfying." To be clear, not advocating for this.

Agreed on all counts. This is a textbook example of the Copenhagen Interpretation of Ethics (https://blog.jaibot.com/the-copenhagen-interpretation-of-eth...). Musk and SpaceX have done a huge amount for Ukraine, but they could possibly be doing even more and that somehow makes them worse than others who haven't done anything.
This feels like saying that (generalized) linear regressions without interactions are inadequate. And criticisms of intersectionality seem to be that (a) high order interactions are statistically volatile and (b) multivariate averages miss important information.

Is it deeper than that?
It doesn't appear to include any objects in the GEO belt (which space-track does), so I'd guess it's just objects from LEOlabs's own sensors.

Silly yourself. If there were simply a "non-zero" number of charts in them, the model wouldn't have, you know, modelled them. That the model can reproduce graphs is clear evidence that it saw enough graphs to reproduce them.

And don't call me silly just because you used imprecise language to try to make a vague point with great conviction as if you absolutely knew what you're talking about, when you absolutely didn't. Show some respect to the intellect of your interlocutor, will you?

People are really good at avoiding the pit of success! We run most of our infra on k8s, and if you want a cert, with ACME & auto-renew all managed automatically for you, you just create a Certificate object.

But then we get some vendored product that manages to be completely unable to run in k8s, devs avoid the automation for $reasons, etc.

> Does your company have a Wiki page saying how to do it wrong?

Sometimes we do! I've found a few of these after really pressing the point of "why are you doing it this way?" hard enough. But you have to a.) get an answer to that and b.) the answer has to reveal they followed some shadow docs.

> If you have firewall rules or a proxy, block random unauthorised stuff.

Your rouge service implementer just creates their own VPC; they are in control of the firewall.

Should my security team either set appropriate privileges or delegate that to my team? Perhaps. I have to get them to adopt like RBAC and ABAC first; they fervently believe our industry's regulations forbid "job function begets access" (i.e., RBAC) type policies. (They desire that, even if a job function begets access, that if you're not needing to exercise that access, it should be revoked until such a time that it is required to be exercised. But this means that you end up with "all security reqs. must flow through security team" style thing, and there are then a lot of them (because they are so ephemeral) and so any process must inherently be ignorant of whether the request is right. So your rouge implementor's request for "I need to implement $high level service" is basically carte blanche.

The thing about shadow-docs and shadow-services is that they're hard to find out about in a timely manner. A lot of these comments are fighting the very core of human nature.

(We used to be better about this as a company, back when we were very engineer heavy, and filled with good engineers — most better than me. The quality bar definitely fell at some point, and we've hired a lot of not engineers doing things that really would be better served by an engineer. Y'all are working at rainbow companies, and I don't know how to keep a company in that state or move it to that state as a bottom-of-rungs eng.)

> "diversity in the workplace" is some kind of ideological conspiracy that is out to undermine them personally.

It doesn't have to be a conspiracy to be unfair. At my place the leadership team spend about 30 minutes every week complaining about the number of old white people who work at the company. I'm not saying this is true of all companies, but I think the issue is often that leadership pushes diversity in such a way that makes people feel excluded.

Based on the pricing, they unlaunched the wrong one. The price of the 16GB 4080 is way higher than the 3080. Based on pricing alone, it's the 12GB card that should be called the 4080 and the 16GB card called a 4080Ti or Super or 4085 or something.

So hopefully this is a sign that they're going to adjust the pricing of the 16GB 4080 to the price announced for the 12GB former-4080.

I doubt it, but one can hope.
I don't disagree with your premise, but if something like half the country doesn't agree that the cops are fundamentally flawed, labeling them effectively as an extremist group will only further entrench their stance that "you're crazy, we're right."

Edit: for example, I think that your other post with the five bullet points could hold up to reasonable scrutiny when presented to the pro-cop crowd, but would likely fall on deaf ears with them if you lead off with the paramilitary framing.

That's not quite true. They've pulled this stunt a few times. Most recently with the 6GB and 3GB versions of the 1060. That was arguably even worse because they did it after the launch.
Less memory bandwidth too IIRC.
I'm all good with helping people prepare for the effects of global warming, as long as that does nothing to detract from our efforts to prevent/reverse it. You said:

And the problem I have is the word "just". No, we're not going to just accept it. We should fight like hell to prevent that from happening. We can still plan and prepare for if all our fighting fails, but taking drastic steps and trying some moonshots is absolutely not off the table.
These big companies really need to get naming input from someone other than marketing teams

It's not the marketing teams to blame.

Marketing teams name things iPod, or MacBook, or PlayDate.

I don't know who names things at Intel, or Nvidia, or Sony, but it's not the marketing team. At least not a good one.
This is why you should never finalize specs until you've written the documentation for it.

Extrapolating your position makes me think your ideal operating system wouldn't be an offshoot of the Linux kernel. It would be a general-purpose, fully asynchronous, MMU-less, zero-copy, single address space operating system secured through static program analysis, where the web browser and the NIC driver are but a couple of function calls away. Kinda like Microsoft Research's Singularity, but probably without the garbage collection.

Maybe one day every phone, tablet and laptop will run such an operating system, but I doubt that we'll have this as a viable alternative anytime soon. In the meantime, I think there's a reason why Google with Fuchsia OS and other companies are hedging their bets mainly through micro-kernel-style approaches for their next-gen general-purpose operating systems.

That sounds like a cop out. The historical data is accurate. And there is a historical basis for reparations being a thing that works. Similar things have been done successfully before. The best way to get countries to drop out and not participate is for countries to feel like it's not a fair deal. Make it a fair deal and you attract everyone to the table.
Very sure. I have pretty much on every programming language on my resume and LinkedIn (and yes - I have actively worked on projects that shipped to customers using those). Number one recruiter reachouts are webdev (Javascript), followed by generic web backend stuff (Java, sometimes Go, less likely C#). Then there are the Rust crypto blockchain stuff recruiters (yes, it's unfortunately 90% of roles using Rust). And the very least in terms of volume is C/C++/Embedded stuff.
>If you apply any amount of rational thinking to the problem, you'll realize that it's incredibly likely that we'll solve climate change.

I think that confusing can with will is a good way to increase the chances of won't. "Solving" climate change seems to be within our technical capabilities, but we currently appear to lack the collective will.
