> Haskell is simple even if unfamiliar to you. Brainfuck is complex even if familiar to you.

I would actually swap these two descriptions. Haskell is complex, because it has many "complications" (in the sense of features). But those complications permit simple programs. Brainfuck is simple, it has few complications (only 8 instructions) but this forces complications into the programs written in it.

It seems unlikely that the GoPros in question are rad-hard (there is no rad-hard GoPro that I'm aware of); it's more likely that they chose them for some other reason (perhaps some sort of validation or testing), or that these have fewer heat dissipation issues than the newer models. Heat dissipation is a frequent cause of issues for electronics in space.

Perhaps regular people, many of whom don't drink much wine, prefer simple, unchallenging flavors that can often be found in cheap wine. Theres nothing wrong with this, but I don't think it necessarily means that wine "quality" doesn't exist.
One reason is web scraping. Twitter used to have sequential IDs that made it easy to tell how many users they’d added over a period of time, even after they were public.
Contracts are agreements between humans. Therefore, the only "correct" outcome is the intended outcome.

If your code has bugs or errors or security vulnerabilities, those will all lead to incorrect behavior.

That's why smart contracts aren't useful.
If bugs are being introduced, that means the team's testing culture is poor. If someone asks me to make a change in code review, I know that my modifications are fine because the unit tests still pass (and the integration tests, but it's rarer to have to touch those). If I forget to manually run them the build system runs them before my code is let in.

Writing in "the reviewer's style" is preferred because they are the reader. For most things that are "style" there should be explicit style guides; for the things that aren't, the reader's opinion is better every time.

If your team isn't getting useful code review feedback, that's also a team culture problem and your senior eng need to step up and lead by example.

"I don't understand this" is important feedback. At a minimum, more comments are needed, but it probably also signals that variable or method names need improvement.

My experience (15+ years, companies of all shapes and sizes from college shops to FAANG) is that the kind of engineer who feels that code review feedback isn't worth listening or is a waste of time to is detrimental to the team in both the short and long term.

In general, the Supreme Court is loathe to review a lower court ruling unless there was either an obvious constitutional violation or rulings from different circuits have resulted in ambiguity at the national level on how law should be interpreted.

The best is rapid growth, high profit margins, but also dominance. Hence, Google, Facebook and Amazon's success. I think you need at least two of those.
Yeah, I mean, in general you should always think about how much entropy you need and know how much you're getting. I think it should be fairly standard knowledge that a UUID may only provide 122 bits of entropy, but then again what should be standard is not what is standard.

It should also be standard to understand the birthday paradox and when it's relevant.

In a ton of cases 122 bits is totally acceptable and it's really up to you to understand when it isn't. In fact, in lots of cases you can get away with less, like 96bits, etc.

It should be pretty easy to answer "how much do you need?" by asking what your tolerance for collisions is.

I'd also like to add that your "Cache Missing for Fun and Profit"[1] paper is an excellent read for people who are just getting into Timing Side channels. It's both so crazy (yet so believable) to me that it wasn't taken more seriously by academics when it was published. Quite frankly, the endless commentary from reviewers critizing work for being "incremental" is a big part of why I'm walking away from academia.

While I don't doubt your story, to really eliminate any chance of cheating you need Amazing Randi levels of procedure and knowledge.
This is my take as well. A related problem is the idea of control. If you feel you have no control over a situation, then action feels meaningless.

The book "Lab Rats" explains this phenomenon very well. In fact, apparently, the way you make a rat depressed in a lab study is to constantly change small aspects of its environment, preventing it from ever feeling stable and comfortable. I wonder if the upheaval in modern social life resulting from things like the rapid changes brought on by capitalism and information technology are a contributor to this widespread feeling.
I've been building from a couple of kits and realizing the next step is to make my own design - what I'm looking for is just not on the market.

I might have a small axe to grind. My Wyze cams were much more capable when I bought them 3 years ago than they are today. Now the app takes much longer to load, and has the uncanny ability to insert an advertisement under my finger just before I touch the camera feed I want to view. Scrubbing through saved footage is slower now than it used to be.

It all smells like feature bloat that I can’t opt out of. RTSP was how I tried to escape that, but as their own site says, they no longer offer it for my cams.

For most people you really don't need to go above $20 for a wine that's world class in terms of quality. At the higher price points most of what you're buying into is the story and exclusivity. There are things you can taste but as you say, it's arguable if these are actually virtues beyond those two features, and it's doubtful if it outweighs the cost unless you have a lot of disposable income.

My biggest problem with the flow nowadays is instead of getting briefer and simpler as you and the device learn each other better, it stays just as onerous all the way through--and, in fact, becomes more so as they introduce more "By the way, you can...[new feature discovery I did NOT want forced down my throat when trying to reset my alarm while half asleep]..." asides.

It's like every lesson about not disrupting GUI flow with modal banners, and about creating shortcuts and other accelerated paths for advanced users was forgotten in VUI. At best you get a one-size-fits-all brief mode that usually isn't very brief, and doesn't reward learning so doesn't increase engagement.

VUI vendors also plainly have no clue how to enable discovery without either fucking up your home screen with some ugly "things you can do" list or being annoying about volunteering stuff when responding to your commands. It's as if they might need to *gasp* document their features instead because voice devices aren't web apps you can just fiddle with.

The net result is I actually get way more frustrated with these devices now that I'm super-experienced with the tech, not less. That's the wrong direction.

The entire local economy surrounding sports venues. For a small bar or restaurant near a stadium, the difference between a good season and a bad season can be huge.

They're for distributed systems.

The entire point is that different computers can generate ID's that can be merged in a database later on and not collide.

And the way they're designed is less likely to collide than random numbers are. (But you need to pick the appropriate UUID version to ensure that, depending on your system's architecture.)

If you're generating ID's that originate in a single centralized table, you don't need UUID's -- autoincrement or random integer is the simpler choice.

> If that were true, we'd all have lower wages than our ancestors, which is demonstrably untrue.

I got a good laugh out of that…

Every study I’ve heard about says that relative wages have been steadily decreasing compared to earlier generations. This naturally leads to a lower standard of living which, incidentally, get covered over by technological advances.

Not that I blame immigration for this but take issue with the “demonstrably untrue” part.

You can prove that my niece making $15/hr in 2022 is higher than her mother making $5/hr in 1987 for essentially the same job but what’s the relative difference?
They (randomized type 4 UUID's) obfuscate as a side effect because they are much more difficult to guess due to their randomness. As the article points out though, they are not impossible to guess... but it will come down to your risk tolerance and what the UUID's are "protecting".

People like to reach for UUID's when obfuscation is needed because inventing your own duplicate-aware random string algorithm isn't what most folks want to spend their time thinking about. Plus, these days, many databases come with UUID-aware data types that make using UUID's fairly straight forward.
At the time, when you are hallucinating, whatever they are saying to you is the "truth".

Wine is far more expensive in the US than in France, for various reasons.
Audio stuff: virtual instruments and effect plug-ins
Yes, I just checked and LCBO's (Ontario province quasi-monopoly on alcohol) and the cheapest bottle of wine is CAD $7.25, an Ontario one so probably terrible. Gallo is CAD $11 which I guess is the US $5 option. Cheap wine bottles are around CAD $9.

Alcohol here is as expensive as in Hawaii (maybe a bit more), OTOH LCBO employs people and there's something to say about more expensive alcohol may prevent alcoholism/accidents etc.

Elon Musk says Twitter is done with layoffs and ready to hire again
> Judges were most consistent at the bottom of the range—they always agreed terrible wines were terrible—and least consistent near the top.

A hypothesis to explain this: We've evolved a detailed sense of taste to help us distinguish harmful food (spoiled, inedible, etc.) from safe food. That would suggest that our sense of taste is most heavily calibrated to detect bad flavors since those are the actionable danger signals that tell us to spit something out.

Part of something tasting good is simply the absence of off-putting bad flavors. Then, once those are out of the way, you can have more interesting but subtle nuances that elevate it to something much better.

I suspect that it's easier to reach agreement on bad wine (or bad food of any category) because it's likely bad because of the presence of one or more wrong notes that most of us are sensitive to and dislike.

Once you've eliminated all of those, you have a wine that's good but perhaps undifferentiated. To go beyond that, though, you quickly enter the realm of personal preference. Because any flavor component that doesn't signal danger is equally as valid as any other and it may be mostly up to memory associations or other mostly arbitrary preferences.

I think they mean that rather than the traditional sense of community (a group with common interests or characteristics who look out for and assist each other, such as farmers helping bring in each others crops if one gets sick at harvest time), Web3 communities are more like an organised crime gang or a cult or something. In that they exist by taking advantage of people outside the group (or at lower tiers within the group) and are generally malevolent.
