What's become cheaper in the current economic crisis?

There are by definition, fewer jobs available in total during an economic crisis. More competition for those positions also makes it likely that living standards will decrease.

At one point, after having introduced the brushtail possum from Australia, which is now a massive pest that kills forests and spreads bovine tuberculosis, someone suggested introducing dingos and/or tree snakes to control the possums.

Luckily, that didn't get much traction.

THis largly comes from growth asiprations, while traditional family business usually try to find balance between growth and conservatism. The Startups backed by investors, who fund them for growth accelerate significantly without base or processes and therefore there are high chances to falter. Also traditional family business has human touch where employees are treated like a family and therefore there is loyalty, lesser pay expectations etc Vs startup pay, Esop Expectations and making in to millionare club on the employee side.
So, if the US says that foreign communications equipment firms who want to sell into the US have to demonstrate they are not subservient to any non-democratic government-a standard Huawei and ZTE cannot meet-then Huawei and ZTE are not (by your logic) being “banned” either, they are merely unwilling or unable to comply with US law and government policy.

> "some weeks" (not sure what this means exactly) is not a very long to be looking for work.

I know but when you are desperately looking for work, along with multiple failures, 12 weeks could felt like 12 months. Especially with an empty pocket. I know it rationally doesn't make any sense but from experience that is how it felt. It was hard, especially hard when you dont have family and friends around you for support.

>Get a non-professional job in the meantime just to keep some money flowing in.

Yes. Waiter, Drivers. There are plenty of options, enough for food on the table.

To OP. I dont know much about US Food Cost, but at one point in my life I was spending 70 pence a day on food, or a little more than a US dollar. Washing clothes by hand, couldn't even afford heating in Winter. Barely able to afford to pay rent and food along with whatever debt. Something like McDonald was luxury. It was hard, but not impossible.

Just dont give up.

Dont FUCKING give up.
Post-Its sure does a bad job at making this evident by packaging them vertically.
Also: companies print their logos in the wrong orientation, e.g.: https://mobile.twitter.com/quantumsensing/status/15529988939...

The design of Post-Its is wrong. There should be a tab next to the glue-strip, so you can easily peel along the strip.

The article you linked says:

> Hammond was right, of course, on his primary counts, as well: the temperature topped 40 degrees at London’s Heathrow airport and over 1,500 people died across Europe as a result of the heat wave.

There was 'literally' one day of temperatures over 40, in a couple of places. I didn't see any data on deaths, but it wasn't 'thousands'.

Before anyone jumps, I believe in climate change :) I just think this hyperbole isn't helpful.
The Atom core is starting to find it's place now though, albeit years later. New Hybrid architecture in the core platforms, in the guise of the efficiency core, and for IoT/MilTech platforms there's a massive growing market with their Elkhart/Tiger Lake processor taking a large share of it.

What do you suggest? (genuinely curious).

IMO, I understand the desire for a truly Turing complete language, however, myself, as a devops, after the horror stories I've seen with high level tooling such as Ansible, Helm, Kustomize or Terraform, I just don't want to imagine the hell that we could have if operations people was using a proper programing language with all the complexity and design decisions that it implies.

This. The typical vulnerability requires an obscure hardware or software config, the user to do something unusual or foolish, or an attacker on the local network. This requires none of that.

That doesn't look like a scientific statement to me. What are its implications? Under what conditions does this hold? How is it falsifiable? What is the relative contribution of each element in that equation?
‘Very’ comes from the Latin for true and could be replaced with ‘truly’. In that sense, it’s like ‘literally’ and other attempts to emphasise.

Co-author here; the first goal is to work at all, not to be awfully fast. But the branches that appear would most likely be due to inline caching, which are very predictable in practice; [1] claims a 95% hit rate for a simple inline cache. And given that there is little to inline, this scheme probably does approximate subroutine threading.

ZFS is mostly developed by the OpenZFS community, not Oracle. OpenZFS is creating all the new developments, including ZFS on Linux, while Oracle is over in the corner with their little fork, pretending it doesn't exist.

To put it more succinctly: Oracle ZFS is OpenOffice. OpenZFS is LibreOffice.
From a quick look at the openwrt home page, they had really bad timing this time: they had just released an important security release two days ago (on the 12th), one day before this new set of vulnerabilities was announced yesterday (on the 13th).

Often multiple inventors arrive at the same idea at almost the same time, for example Edison and Swan for the light bulb, Meucci and Bell (among others) for the telephone, Tesla and Marconi for radio, the Wrights and many others for the airplane etc. possibly because the technological and social level of society has reached a certain point in its development when the "time is ripe" for a given invention. As Charles Fort put it:

> A social growth cannot find out the use of steam engines, until comes steam-engine-time.
I think people are understandably cautious about large scale interventions in complex systems. It's not like we've got a test Earth ready to do a dummy run on. We're making changes directly to production here.

(I do think we'll ultimately need to do something like this simply because the cost of not doing it is too high but I understand why people are scared by it, and it's not just down to belief in wood spirits).

> And a third one. it will have serious downsides. things which we didn't think of which are exceptionally hard to remediate at scale once we've put the material up there in volume.

I disagree with this. The downsides will be things the same 15% of the population that always points these things out will point out. They'll then be soundly ignored.

Link's not working
Getting someone to leave without much of a cause is easy, certainly, if you're willing to pay enough. The being willing to pay bit tends to be the sticking point that makes employers who are used to US "at will" employment complain.
> I realize I speak from a privileged position as a software developer. But never since the first day that I stepped into an office as a professional software developer in June of 1996 did I “plan a future” with a company.

If you can acknowledge that you're in a more secure position, why then argue for the treatment of those less fortunate based on the security that's been afforded to you by your particular set of circumstances?

> 2008 was worse. But as a developer, you could find a contract somewhere if you had a network.

The economy consists of more than just developers. Unemployment spiked in 2008 and many people were unable to find work after having been fired.
Sandi game
For a game that has a single release code review seems like it would be less important. Where I've found it really comes into it's own is keeping a codebase maintainable over several years.

Bun's SQLite implementation has correctness issues:

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/921

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/1056#pullrequestreview-1...

This makes SQLite transactions no longer serializable (in regard to the schema), and breaks the safety of any kind of external concurrency (e.g. mvSQLite and Litestream).
I'd say you're informed in minute irrelevant details but less informed and even directly lied or misinformed on the overall picture!
> But because they fracture the rock instead of vaporizing it, there's essentially gravel/sand leftover which is hard to evacuate from a deep vertical shaft, hence their focus on power/fiber trenches not geothermal.

Getting cuttings out of the borehole is a solved problem with present drilling technics used in the Oil & Gas industry or geothermal. The drilling fluidsbrings them back. One needs the drilling fluids (mud) to avoid the well to collapse, I guess Petra is staying clear of deep borehole drilling because they can't operate their technology with drilling mud present. Also the deeper you go, the smaller the hole and they may face miniaturizion issues too.

Nah - it'll go down like Venezuela [1]. The government of a country flagrantly ignores the internationally agreed carbon caps, and so some country or group of countries get together and sponsor a coup.

It happened to Venezuela because they refused to align with US interests, and with other economic and political issues, they were an easy target. The wikipedia page [1] has a nice summary of the list of countries on each side of the dispute, and you can see a nice 'pro USA' and 'anti USA' divide.

True. In fact, at my last interview they looked hard at my resume and then asked, "And so why should we hire you?".

I snapped off my sunglasses and, trying to contain my annoyance, said, "Guys, I solve problems and create systems."

Only if placed above high albedo surfaces. And when placed above existing grass several times less than any other option except wind/tidal.

A solar panel above asphalt or concrete provides a net increase in albedo. And there is more than enough to provide the required solar share of energy to provide all our needs (with the other half provided by wind).
That could as well be a city apartment, except for the rooftop solar being enough for the whole building.
His lamenting "they didnd't get the joke" wasn't on the quality or effectiveness of his joke, or why it failed to get a laugh. He could just as well make the same comment about a non-joke remark about the "Modest Proposal".

Militia has a legal definition, as does arms. Bearing them seems clear to me, ability to use them.

Free states are not free to ignore any right enumerated, so that’s a no brainer, same with the loss of rights.

If 2A is ambiguously worded because we want it to define it’s own terms instead of using the standard legal definitions, then what does this make every other right?
It seems to me that it’s being defined ambiguous as an attempt to pick it apart.
Yes, definitely this is part of it for me. The other reason I’m concerned (although, agree it’s probably necessary) is that I’m wary of any solution that we can’t undo if it goes awry.
One of my biggest pet peeves is when people get into the habit of leaving code reviews with only suggestions like variable name changes. It's not that I'm resistant to changing things like that but I have several colleagues that seem to only ever make suggestions like that and it seems very performative to me.

Yes, Go has a precise (i.e. non-conservative) garbage collector. It seems odd to me to think about that as some kind of special feature of the & operator. Even if one does, it's certainly not a surprising feature. Knowing that Go has a precise GC, one certainly expects the GC to know that the value of &x references x. If it didn't that would be a major bug.

The Go GC isn't a reference counting implementation. It traces the values of variables on the stack and it knows their types (because it knows which function any given stack frame corresponds to and it knows which variables that function allocates). Thus it knows that if a variable is of type *int and has a non-nil value then its value references an int. (And so on for fields of structs that are stored in stack variables, etc.) The & operator does not need to do anything special. The & operator merely takes the address of the object. When that address is stored in a pointer variable (or array member, or struct field...), that's when it becomes visible to the GC as a reference.

There's little point in rendering normals computed from a triangle mesh to a normal map. The point of using textures is that they enable greater detail without having to add many vertices. With the right normal map, you can make a flat triangle look curved or bumpy.

Computing a normal map from video that still looks good if you change the lighting is a bit more difficult.
I wasn’t around then but my impression is that at that point in time basically no one saw the internet coming maybe aside from a few geeks.
