I feel like I've suffered through this type of "leadership" for the past decade. When it works, it's great (although I feel you've kind of traded traditional authority for slight manipulation/scheming on part of the leader in such instances). These instances have also always involved more experienced team members.

When it doesn't work it's useless. Instead of just getting told to drive straight off a cliff you get to wander around in a forest for a while and when you eventually find out you're lost it's way too late.

As always (and as TFA points out) the person you pick for a leader still needs to actually possess whatever skill set your flavor of the month leadership style requires.

Depending on your business's "economics", serverless can be decent for MVPs/projects where you're not sure you'll become popular.

For my own project (uptime monitoring + status pages), I got to about 500 users before serverless costs were eating enough of my profits to make me want to move to VMs. It was nice to be able to validate the idea on a service that costs zero if no one is using it.

With continuously running applications (100 concurrent users), it makes zero sense to use serverless as you're paying a high premium over a continuously running VM. I'd just use a VM and scale the number of instances serving the API.

For what it's worth, though you're clearly not eligible for American VA benefits if you served in a non-American military, the legal definition of a "veteran" in the US is anyone who performed any active-duty military service at all. You don't need to see combat to be considered a veteran. You're obviously less likely to end up with PTSD if you don't see combat, though you'd be surprised. Training can be rough and a fairly high number of people end up being assaulted and/or raped while in garrison, and of course several US military installations have also been the site of mass-shooting events.

Anyway, if this has happened your entire life, I wonder if there is really anything you can do about it. That seems distinct from trauma-induced. This seems to describe my sister. From as early as I can remember, so at least when she was as young as 3, she was waking up in cold sweats pretty regularly having dreams the entire family except her was murdered in the middle of the night. Myself, I can't remember ever having a single nightmare my entire life, and I served in the Army during Iraq and Afghanistan and even outside of the military had a few near-death encounters. Some people are just a lot more predisposed to worry than others. It's not necessarily a bad trait, either. I'm reasonably sure the high number of near-death experiences for me is because I'm way too prone to idiotic risks because I never believe anything bad will happen. And always surviving just reinforces that even though I know rationally I just got lucky. Humanity exists right now because my ancestors were mostly a lot more anxious than I am.

Interesting solution to the spool, not sure if I want it for my own stuff, but it is very minimalistic and nice. I get why you picked it. Seems like it tries to do the minimum possible to replace traditional sendmail with something still unixy.
Well, the original point was whether philosophy had any influence on world events, not whether that influence was good or not.

To me, the idea that ideas don't play a major role in world history and politics seems odd. There's nothing more fundamentally human than trying to understand the world around you and wanting to shape it in a certain way. Of course material conditions are important; the French Revolution wouldn't have happened had the state not gone bankrupt. But it also wouldn't have happened in that way without Enlightenment ideas. Very basic principles of the revolution, some of which were kept by Napoleon and in subsequent generations and still live on today were formulated by those enlightenment thinkers. Just consider the declaration of human rights.
I agree. And it is sketchy when people give a guarantee we know they can't keep.
I'm sorry that it frustrates you, that must be difficult.
Here's the catch -- I don't have a dog! Utter ramblings, I say!
Before you actually dive into coding in Emacs may I suggest to do the following:

1) Get yourself a copy of https://www.masteringemacs.org/ and read it. That gives you a very good overview on the design philosophy of Emacs and many practical tips.

2) Explore vanilla Emacs a little bit. Run the built-in tutorial. Explore Emacs's customization UI. Play tetris.

3) Familiarize yourself with how you install Emacs packages from ELPA and MELPA. On your first steps you can use Emacs' built-in UI. But, ideally, you want to learn "use-package.el" as quickly as possible because that will simplify your configuration a lot.

Coming from VScode you might feel a little bit overwhelmed at this point as you will be starting to use a Lisp macro routinely (!) to install editor extensions. Check out the "Emacs from scratch" series on YouTube for a helpful guide.

4) What programming languages are you using? For React projects you might need to use "webmode.el" which is not built-in. Similar situation with Clojure or Rust. If you want more convenience, you also might want to take a look on "lsp-mode.el" that adds more code introspection features. It is not crazily complicated to install and setup but definitely not beginner friendly.

5) Try to identify your most important extensions you are using right now in VScode. What are the features you cannot live without? Then embark on a google search what the most suitable replacements are in Emacs. For example, VSCode's "Restclient" extensions is paralleled by Emacs' "restclient.el" and it works quite well (if you use it together with "restclient-jq.el" that is).

6) For your dev work flow, checkout Emacs' built-in "compile-mode" (C-l) -- you can paste any shell command in there that will compile your code, run tests or synchronize with a remote dev server (everything that goes inside a bash script). Line errors will be clickable in the output window and help you jump in the offending code line. It's simple and effective. This will make you stop using the shell too often.

7) I recommend installing "which-key.el" which makes Emacs' display a cheat sheet of possible keyboard combos upon hitting control keys (after some delay). This way you'll learn keyboard commands more quickly.

8) However, don't let anyone tell you what the right way of using Emacs is. If you find the mouse menus convenient, by all means use them and don't listen to people who turn off the menu bar. (I even added a custom menu for Emacs modes I happen to use sometimes but not everyday.) Use CUA mode if you are used to "C-c C-v". Don't use the terminal version of Emacs. Ignore the extremists. However, definitely check out "magit.el" for version control.
Plenty of organs go below 20Hz though, and even an otherwise good sound system starts to struggle around 40Hz if it's not built specifically for playing such notes.

I think the question a senior-level IC needs to ask themselves is how much they care about stuff "above their pay grade" when this sort of thing happens. Personally, I don't have the patience to deal with super-dysfunctional management structures where they just want to ignore reality unless someone takes the time to Jedi-mind-trick them into doing the right thing. I would much rather give them the straight dope, and let them decide if they want to do the right or wrong thing. And if they want to do the wrong thing, that's just a very clear sign that's an organization I don't want to continue to be associated with.

And yes, I mournfully agree that this is the state of many organizations and management teams. But life is too short for me to put up with their bullshit.

Thats a very interesting analogy that moves the discussion beyond
"Gods will", "cancerous opinions" and endless bleating for "proof"
that occupies some other outbursts.

I think stuckness is a good metaphor. And yes I see where you are
going with that - persistent nightmares are taxing, waking up feeling
physically drained etc. There seems a strong case for instrumental
suppression, much as anti-depressants can help set the necessary
conditions for long-term therapy.

But I'd take the metaphor further and suggest the nightmares are
processes that are signalling, but those signals are not acted upon.
We sometimes need help in interpreting and verbalising those signals
so that we can hear them ourselves. My objection would be to blocking
those signals as a first recourse (and allowing that to become a
normalised response to intrusive reliving as other self-medication is
so often with veterans I've had contact with).
> Does this relate to the normal modes or eigenmodes of a system?

Yes. The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of an undamped harmonic oscillator are respectively the vibration frequency and vibration mode.

One major class of structural analysis techniques is modal analysis, which determines the vibration modes and corresponding frequencies of specific structural systems subjected to particular boundary conditions.
yeah general chicken and egg problem but I guess if we don't collectively take a bit of initiative, we can never have better things!
Aren't the images in that wikipedia link misleading?

In the original case, you have the following statement: If even, then red. You also have 4 cards, 3, 8, red brown. So two numbers that relate to the if side and two colors that relate to the then side.

In the second picture, you have the statement: If drinking alcohol, then >=21. You also have 4 chards. 16, 25, soda, beer. So two numbers that correlate to the then side and 2 drinks that correlate to the if side.

But the way they arrange and color code the cards makes people associate the drinks with the colors and the ages with the numbers, which is mixing up the if and then.

Granted, this isn't a problem in the text explanation, but could lead to further confusion by someone trying to create associations between drink alcohol status and color when it is really drink alcohol status and even/odd.

Unrelated to my the rest of my comment, I found that despite having what I would consider a very logical brain, I did have a much simpler time solving the drinking problem than the original one. I reach a satisfactory conclusion in each, but the drinking one felt more natural and intuitive while the original problem included a pause and double checking my logic. I would like to be tested on social rules that aren't part of my current social context to see if that played a roll in this specific instance (the article says there is evidence that the effect persists even when the rules aren't part of the existing culture, but that is a general trend and may not apply to specific instances).
Completely agree with this.

Unix is centred around composing lots of individual tools that do one job well. Emacs is the antithesis of this. It's closer to Visual Studio.

Honestly in the 30 years I've been using Unixes I have never needed anything but vi/vim with a few lines of configuration, mostly to satisfy some of the newer fussier language indent requirements (yaml, python). Most of the non trivial data processing is done with external tools (sed, grep, awk etc) where the knowledge and power is reusable for other tasks external to editing things!

Only on Windows have I had to leverage anything more complicated.
You may not ;)
I think what a lot of comments are missing is that they tried to raise this with management, and eventually management responded by asking them to conduct a review and deliver the results, which they did. Maybe they could have played it better but it doesn’t sound like it was their idea to do it this way.
Weirdly I did tap and hold those buttons first and I just realized that has become my default for a lot of UI elements on mobile, because it often emulates hover behavior.

By all means, Celts are actually Arabic speakers who have splintered off during the Bronze Age - some 3500 years ago prior to the Kingdoms of Israel and Judea - and the genesis of your theories revolving around the lost tribes of Israel is irrelevant. That bit is just an inexplicable coincidence.

Obvious, my bad for being confused.

To add a couple more good use cases for Lambda:

- To run something at deploy-time with custom CloudFormation resources. As an example, a Lambda can be invoked during each deployment to run tests. If the test fails, the stack(s) can be automatically rolled back. Tricky to get right and not often the right tool in the bag, but sometimes useful.

- As handlers for CloudWatch events. Useful for forwarding events to third-party log services, or for taking some sort of complex action based on a given event.

AWS is nearly “all in” on Lambda at this point, so it’s a good bet that if you want to hang some kind of task off an AWS service, they’ll give you a hook to fire off a Lambda. From a cost and simplicity perspective this works out well.

Illiquid just means that you can't cash it in quickly.

Cash is 100% liquid while a house is illiquid you might have millions US$ parked there but only if you manage to sell it, then you convert it into liquid cash.

Liquidity is a measure of how easy it'd be to trade a thing for another thing you want.
My read of the situation: SBF's comments were about assets (balance sheet) rather than FTX's liquidity. I believe SBF was saying (paraphrasing) "Our balance sheet is fine; FTX doesn't invest customer assets; we're processing withdrawals as fast as possible." That's different than saying "we have 100% liquidity."

Banks make similar statements all the time -- they require regular audits of assets (stress tests) and maintain some minimum levels of liquidity.
I get it. But I admit I'm also on the side of healthy skepticism when it comes to anything around her. Have not followed the trial closely (which is on me), but read a lot of the articles and books and such.

To me it's direct correlation.

"If she knew there might be problems in the lab" - the only problem in the lab was the machines themselves! The blood work is known science - the issue was getting to a point where accurate blood work could be done. Which involved the machines, the machines that they separately demonstrated she knew did not and could not do 'x, y and z'. And to be clear, in your example, x, y and z are "extract sufficient blood for an accurate test", "extract blood in a way that allows for an accurate test (i.e. absent over-dilution, contamination)".

To also be clear, this can be entirely a failing of the prosecution too - but it seems there's this sense of "there's this missing -glue- that we couldn't prove", but the lab IS the machine, and if she knows the machine can't do x, y, z, then it follows that the lab can't do x, y and z. There are only two outcomes from the machine, and lab, an accurate result, or an inaccurate result (or inability to provide any result). And then if you say "My machine cannot do x, y and z", then it cannot provide accurate results (at least not by design, stopped clocks and all that). Then you get to a conclusion that her argument would be that "an inaccurate result doesn't inherently harm a patient", and convoluted logical leaps of "because the result would lead to further testing and interventions", but there was presented at trial concrete evidence that unnecessary, and harmful, interventions were ordered/performed, on the basis of the lab results from those machines.
I recently embarked on a journey to come up with a math vocabulary for Toki Pona, a lovely little artistic conlang which deserves better than what I'm doing to it. In Toki Pona, words are build up from simpler ones to describe a thing as it is. A friend is 'jan pona', a person who is good (to me, the speaker). So I've had to come up with names which describe math topics.

It's awful.

You know how many same-xs there are?! Eigenvalue, eigenvector, homomorphism, isomorphism, homeomorphism, homotopic. Which one gets to actually be "same shape"? Worse are when well meaning mathematicians use descriptive names anyway. Open and closed are not mutually exclusive, giving rise to the awful clopen (and don't pretend like ajar helps. an ajar door is an open door!). Groups, rings, and fields all sort of bring to mind the objects they describe, but only after you know the archetypal examples. Math is the study of giving the same name to different things, and that gives rise to more names than there are short descriptions.

So do you know what I did? Whenever I could, I used a real person's name. It freed up a limited vocabulary, and gave enough wiggle room to translate most undergrad math without too much loss. I suspect a similar thing is in play with math. Maybe the category theory people have abstractions to usefully describe "same-functions" without confusion. But in general, things are named poorly because it's genuinely a hard task.
Which is why I said it depends on local situation. None of those exist where I am.

> why the lab in question would be doing secret work on coronaviruses

what was secret about it? the lab in Wuhan was literally doing research in 2015 on how bat coronaviruses could adapt to spread in humans vs ACE2 receptors and developed their own strain:
https://www.nature.com/articles/nm.3985

from the linked study:
"Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone. The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild-type backbone can efficiently use multiple orthologs of the SARS receptor human angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2), replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV. Additionally, in vivo experiments demonstrate replication of the chimeric virus in mouse lung with notable pathogenesis.... On the basis of these findings, we synthetically re-derived an infectious full-length SHC014 recombinant virus and demonstrate robust viral replication both in vitro and in vivo. Our work suggests a potential risk of SARS-CoV re-emergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations."
> Starting an implication with “if no action is taken after 100,000 deaths” is the same as “if false” — you can put anything in the “then” and have the statement be logically sound - that doesn’t mean it’s in any way useful.

1) Not when YOU are the person who determines if action should be taken!

2) You seem to be implying that action can be taken at 100,000 which will be effective at preventing the spread to 1,000,000 which may be true or may be false, but it's going to be far easier to stop it at 10 regardless.
Surprisingly, what killed the company was the lack of competitive scene. We sort of expected players to organize themselves. We also had a lot of the DotA pros at the time.

The moment icefrog and valve dropped their $1M tournament prize pool, the company in hindsight was doomed. But it took a couple years to sink.

Players follow pros, and if the pros are playing DotA, they’ll switch to DotA. Our only chance was to keep the pros. It would have been smart to make an exclusive contact with as many pros as possible. But of course, that’s with hindsight.

The rise of twitch happened to coincide with the rise of pro DotA, which I think was a factor in shifting popularity.

Did you see the second video I posted where they went around to different intersections and counted up over a longer period of time and found that approximately 90% of cars roll through? It also agrees with my observations. Since I realized this I've gone to many intersections in my city and watched and sure enough, just about every single car rolls through. So I have

* a lifetime of experience as a driver, passenger, cyclist and pedestrian

* explicit counting in multiple intersections near me

* the video on twitter

* the informal study on youtube

which all agree. At what point do I have enough evidence to form a personal opinion for the sake of a hacker news comment?

It's definitely more complicated than that, I've migrated containers over to new OSes and I'm familiar with how tough it can be getting all your tests to pass again. That being said, it's a solvable problem. It's hard to say how many services Twitter runs internally, but by the sounds of this article their internal tooling sounds pretty lean and mean. A team of 5-10 tenured engineers would probably have no problem switching off of RHEL before the year is over (much less by June).

As much as I want to watch Twitter collapse under the weight of it's own incompetence, it seems highly unlikely that Elon Musk is going to allow Twitter to go offline. If Twitter really was so fragile that it couldn't be scaled by throwing more money at the problem, then I guess I get why all the previous engineers were fired.
