Shameless plug:

I'm working on a similar project, portable pipelines built with Nim :)

The idea behind this project is to:

1. Dev and Prod pipelines runs the same code, the only difference is where are executed. Allows easy troubleshooting and faster development.

2. Tests output by default on each script.

3. Decouples the code from the image/container. This allows it to be embedded into any CI stack.

4. Complex rules for retries specific scripts rather than the whole pipeline or even the step (stage)

A typical pipeline definition looks like this:

```yaml
kind: pipeline
version: 1
policy: strict

steps:
- hello

hello:
- script: echo "hello world"
expected_output: "hello world"
expected_return_code: 0
retries: 5
```

```bash
./takito --tasks tasks.yml --step hello
```
I thought cercatrova's interpretation was a lot funnier.

Not every child is a pesky one; but suppose it makes a network request, or tries to read something from IndexedDB, or relies on window.matchMedia or IntersectionObserver. And you don't want to deal with this stuff when you are testing one of its (grand)parents.

"45" appointed two Democratic Commissioners and one Republican when he was in office. One is still serving and voted in favour of withdrawing the 2015 Statement on Section 5. The 2015 Statement came under Obama's watch, not 45's.

"Tech" proponents try to politicise any regulation that threatens their privacy-disrepecting, anticompetitive and deceptive "business" practices but that strategy is doomed to fail. At this point politicians on both sides are annoyed by the "tech" company nonsense, perhaps for different reasons.
This is exactly what Taleb wrote about [1].

Systems start out very fragile.
Over time they get more and more robust, as edge cases and events result in more rules and rigidity.
This works until they become so robust that they can no longer cope with the change when something unexpected -i.e. a black swan event - happens.

The only way to counter this, to make a system that improves in coping with disorder/chaos as it encounters it.

>AdBlue, a mix of urea and deionised water...

De-ionised water is easily obtainable in any filling station, or place that sells motoring spares.

And urea?.. well given the amount of 'truckers' lemonade' found in lay-bys, they shouldn't have any trouble sourcing that either.
Kind of sad "retail workers have it much worse" is what prevents people from taking action, though.

Elon Musk tells Twitter employees ‘bankruptcy is not out of the question’
No. The "regular" price is whatever people not opting into stalking are paying. Capitalism is based around supply and demand, and people who don't want to be stalked are willing to pay more. That's not an upcharge. That's the default price.
For me it’s always been chlorine and other cleaning products. Salt water and sweat doesn’t help either.

What is the 1993 electronic money being referred to?
That's a different issue. "High prices" are a problem, but that's not what "inflation" measures. There is no way to report inflation (derivative of prices) that correctly reports "price/wage ratio", which is what people really care about.
> the entire concept is starting to destabilize

Nothing other than the price, which is just random people gambling like they are on Robinhood, has destabilized. Quite the opposite actually. All entities that are in trouble have been completely centralized entities, just like Google, Apple or AMZ are. They don't use the blockchain for their service. It's all centralized and they are largely gambling venues.

Meanwhile, anything that's on-chain like Uniswap, Aave, Compound, etc has been quietly humming along without outages or drama. You just don't hear about it because well, nothing happened there and it has been working just as it should. Same when the market crashed a few months ago, it worked flawlessly.

The fact that these centralized entities can do shady stuff with customer deposits without anyone noticing is actually the biggest argument for crypto, which is fully transparent and auditable by anyone. Not your keys not your coins has been true forever. The problem is that the vast majority of people doesn't understand this concept and thinks that Binance/FTX/Coinbase/etc has anything to do with blockchain stuff. They don't. They're just your normal centralized middleman. It's like saying "The internet is going down because AOL failed"
You deposit $100 dollars at two banks, the banks lend to each other until they have created 10x as much bank money than they have cash. The cash didn't go anywhere, it is still there but if the bank were to pay it out it would not meet its regulatory requirements and be shut down even though it might have $1000 worth of assets if you give it enough time.

The problem essentially is that the money can be withdrawn all at the same time but the obligations cannot.
> It might sound a lot, but its actually not.

Yes, unfortunately I understand why the huge markup is a necessity to cover R&D costs. I am close to people who are on these prohibitively expensive orphan drugs. What surprised me however was that when the patent for it expired, I thought prices would decrease as generics came in. Unfortunately as I learned more, it seems that biologics are so hard to produce unlike regular drugs, where Indian pharmaceutical companies can immediately come in with generics. Even though detailed information on the production process is available on the patent, it seems production variability/heterogeneity is still a major obstacle, and I was just curious where in the whole development process is this the most difficult to control for.

Anyways, thanks for taking the time to respond with your insight!

She's the CEO of Alameda Research. SBF is the CEO of FTX.
Part of the deal everyone's living under is that we live under a system of rough supply and demand. Selling something for what people will pay for it is not a shell game, it's basic economics. The price for people who choose not to be stalked is the default price.

He had a talk three days ago, explaining his thesis where he remarked:
“When the paper was posted online just a few days ago, many people who don’t focus on mathematics didn’t understand it, thinking that it was the Landau-Siegel zeros conjecture solved, and some even thought that it proved the Riemann Hypothesis is wrong. Actually, I don’t have this ability. I only partially solve the Riemann hypothesis within a certain range. If I say I overturned Riemann Hypothesis, few people would believe it.”[1]

Maybe he loves what he's doing and that's the root of being stubborn and "genuinely oblivious to ordinary material feedback". Although love or passion can be overrated or too general to describe his attitude toward problem-solving, I think people can't be just stubborn, there's a drive that holds them to a higher standard.

As folks keep looking to Rust for safety and performance, I wonder what in-language facilities exist to say "this variable should exist in a separate cpu cache line". That would be neat level of control in contrast to recognizing this in debugging + adding arbitrary padding.

It's called parody, and you can't actually seriously be asking, can you? You probably thought that The Onion amici brief on parody was good! Yet here you are, insisting that if parody doesn't reveal itself, it's identity theft and impersonation. Never heard of a comedian that "does impressions"? Doing an impression isn't illegal. Mimicking someone except as to say things they'd obviously not say, is exactly what parody is and it's not illegal and it's certainly not problem speech in anyway (as opposed to spam, which makes sites illegible/unusable).
How so? Because they buy software?
This is hilarious, telling an absurd amount of people that their money is gone because of a simple math mistake on margins by “me”. You raised many millions on valuations of billions to avoid these very mistakes and have redundancies. To hire experts that double, triple, quadruple check these and create systems that check these margins in near real-time. It’s disgusting that he’s using emotions to retain the US-based costumers that he has remaining.
I think you're getting hung up on the technical difference between Twitter continuing to exist in any recognisable form and continuing to exist as a shell of a company with neither revenue nor staff. I see them as functionally the same.

A few weeks ago I didn't think this sort of outcome was possible, I thought Musk might muddle a bit and cause a long term decline, but nothing so sudden. Now, with the FTC consent decree potentially breached, advertisers running for the hills, Musk himself saying the company is close to bankruptcy, the resignation of virtually all key top staff including their head of Trust & Safety, and the departure of so many SREs that it will cause stability issues, there's a perfect storm developing that'll have mutually reinforcing effects. Social networks don't always die slowly, sometimes they collapse as Hemingway described: Slowly, then all at once.

The death knell would be if Twitter is kicked off one or both of the App Stores, but I think long before that the company will become completely unsustainable financially. I expect Musk to successively lay off more and more staff to try to stay ahead of that, making things worse.
So, instead you should not accept CC and expect the employees being happy with higher take from tips and less tips in general as losing people paying by CC would result?
This is one of the most ignorant comment I recently read on HN.
NPM dep system is a security nightmare. Try to publish something on maven central vs npm.

Python is a joke. Really. Tried using an airflow api for days. Having no static types, you have to rely on documentation, so good luck. python is ok for scripting, fee dozens LoC, not for serious enterprise dev.

In the enterprise world Java/jvm is THE way to go, there's just too many choices and possibilities. You don't like spring? No problem, there's endless other frameworks.
I always feel like a git telling people "it's nftables now!", but it's been over a decade and folks keep using iptables as the common identifier. It's slow to change language. You're right, many of those iptables commands are utilities/scripts around nftables now.
The article isn't a critique of teams following Goodhart's Law IRL. It's a formalization of concepts between machine learning and Goodhart's Law including a "strong" formalization where performance can diverge.

I found it quite useful to think about these concepts with respect to machine learning. In a sufficiently large system of humans interacting, there's a lot of emergent stochasticity that is tough to model.

Some examples given are of teams working together at a business, but seemed intentionally written to strike familiarity with the reader, not to make suggestions about how people should analyze metrics on a daily basis.

He is just trying to stress the folks let at Twitter even more. Such an unethical move to have an entire company constantly hang in the purgatory of having a job next month or not.
I have been going on a similar journey. My childhood was trauma over and over again. I learned to cope but those skills no longer serve me at 45. It seems you have been much more literal about "connecting with your inner child". I suppose there are many ways to do this. Good luck with your journey. I appreciate the struggle.

I last paid active attention to this in mid-2017. At that time, Google mostly, eventually executed JavaScript, but it would often be weeks after initial indexing that any JavaScript execution happened; and there were rumours but scarcely more that Bing could execute JavaScript; and I know of no other engine doing any JavaScript. By mid-2018, Bing definitely sometimes did some JavaScript execution (see https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/bing-javascript/). It’s probable things have become a bit more consistent by now, but actually loading pages realistically is so much more expensive than just parsing the initial serialised HTML that I think you can reasonably expect JavaScript-execution to be less consistent and reliable as they will very probably continue to prefer to avoid loading things that way if it’s not obviously required.

Forestation can be quite controversial so we err very heavily on the safe side. Our calculation is on the site[1] but I'll copy it here for clarity as well:

* We use an average CO₂ sequestration rate of 10.875kg of CO₂/tree/year.
* We only take the first 5 years of the trees' carbon sequestration into account. What gets sequestered after this is a gift to our planet and we don’t sell that.
* To mitigate chances of loss due to disease or fires we double plant (meaning we buy double the number of trees that we need to).

Therefore for every two trees we purchase we assign a removal value of 54.375kg (10.875kg * 5 years).

For one tonne of carbon that is (1000kg / 54.375kg) * 2 trees = 37 trees (rounded). At $0.15 per tree that's $5.5.

I have seen a type of banking proposal where the bank always borrows from the central bank at x% and issues loans that way and just passes the x% cost to anyone holding the money. That means no deposits were required to begin with. If anything, cash means that the person who withdrew money would be stuck with the borrowing fee until they deposit their cash back in.

So yeah although this is still theoretical, it is indeed possible to do banking without having a single customer cash deposit.

IME, the problem with the GraphQL API is that it does a poor job of indicating where permissions came from, and you have to fall back to bad heuristics.

For example, if team="company" has "READ", and team="company/dev" has "WRITE", and Bob is in team="company/dev" but not team="company", then Bob will have both "READ" and "WRITE" because of his membership in team="company/dev"; the API will give no indication that the "READ" indirectly came from team="company".

Also, the permissions that the PAT needs in order for GraphQL to even list those things is excessive.

Musk's Twitter loses key executives, triggers sharp FTC warning
This has been a trend in this late stage Capitalism, if you will. A large group of people spend years and decades building a company that can still grow and produce immense wealth over long-term, but a bunch of grifters roll in and sell it for parts, because "shareholders".

The job of the board is to assure long-term growth of the investment, not a one-time burn-it-all-down event or a slow bleed (GE, Boeing) where the shareholders get unreasonable returns while annihilating the hard work building up the company.

These are not company-building boards, these are company-destroying boards. Literally, vulture capitalists from the inside.

Not too much like a modern car to compare, though. Still no electric starting, and not a lot of capacity, creature comforts, or speed. Time between major overhauls was ~15,000 miles. Overall lifespan of the car was estimated as 100,000.
