This problem actually comes up in The Goal. After the characters lift the bottlenecks in their factory, things go smoothly for a while but then they start to see starvation in other areas like you mentioned. The solution they come up with involves local signaling and also data collection and analysis to understand the timeframes in play within the factory. The following excerpt is from Chapter 26.

Then I said, "Fine, but how do we time each release of material so it arrives at the bottleneck when it's needed?" Stacey said, "I'm not sure, but I see what you're worried about. We don't want the opposite problem of no work in front of the bottleneck." "Hell, we got at least a month before that happens, even if
we released no more red tags from today on," said Bob. "But I know what you mean. If we idle the bottleneck, we lose throughput."
"What we need," I said, "is some kind of signal to link the bottlenecks with the release-of-materials schedule." Then Ralph, to my surprise, spoke up and said "Excuse me, this is just a thought. But maybe we can predict when to release
material by some kind of system based on the data we've kept on both the bottlenecks."
Yeah for sure in serious traffic it can be useless but in most situations I still try to use it. You find gaps in traffic with a car in front going the speed you want and then match their speed. I find if you do this you can often find a good gap to just sit in for extended periods of time while the rest of the jabronis go around.

And I think if more people took this approach en masse we’d actually see a lot of dangerous behavior disappear.

A fairly serious accusation to make, which you did little to nothing to back up.
> Yes, this is a problem of weak static typing of pure C. Pure C is a great tool for some jobs, but here be dragons, as they say.

> The problem is that (sizeof(struct ...)!=0)==1, so size=1 always for memcmp(). Instead of comparing two tmp, my code compared only 1 byte of each structs.

This isn't just due to the type coercion of the third argument to memcmp though, is it? It's at least as much due to the fact that the _return value_ of memcmp is a valid `if` condition. I know that "zero is false, everything else is true" for integers is just as much a "feature" of C as the coercion of the comparison to a size_t, but I feel like it's less obviously a useful feature, given how easily it is to just manually write `!= 0` if you happen to want the existing behavior. Are there any compiler warnings or hints for being able to disallow this specifically?

Oh, I guess we're taking this candy diet suggestion far more seriously than I originally thought.

It wouldn't require a whole lot of thought to come up with an all candy diet that supplied the minimum necessary nutrition. How broad is our definition of "candy" for this? Are you willing to consider candied fruits, vegetables, and bacon? Chocolate covered things? How much dark chocolate would we have to add to something to consider it candy?
Of course, Windows (and especially Windows NT) learned and borrowed from the Unix world. But it retains a distinct personality and lineage.

This does seem to use AI or at least not use the "human workers" method.

Going to the Google SSO page for their signin flow and clicking on the blue domain name for their app, the Google auth page shows the email of the GCP account that started the auth project, which in this case is jaewany@gmail.com

Looking that up on Google shows that it corresponds to Jaewan Yun.

Looking him up on GitHub gives you his profile which contains some captcha solver extension code for this very website and also many TensorFlow-related things.

His personal website[1] also lists the solver under "My Products"

By giving writers an incentive to write quality content.

Youtube pays their creators well, although I know that video is more engaging than text. Nevertheless, giving writers the chance to make good money on a platform will make them post quality content, and would make them continue to post quality content so that they get compensated. I'm a medium writer, and I don't get paid nearly enough what I should for the amount of work I put into my articles.

Medium doesn't have a great recommendation system. Tiktok does. The beauty of the tiktok algorithm is that it gives users what they want without them having to go through the trouble of finding what they want. On medium, you have to go to the topic and then from there see what you can find. On my platform, there will be a "For You" page that makes the content go to you.
The young people I work with now are the laziest I've ever seen. I think the job market has been so strong for so long they dont know what the real world is like. If/when we get a proper recession these people will all start working properly or get fired.
The Essential Deming[1] is probably the gold standard for now, though it can be a little dry. It's one of those "suggested readings" in basically any safety or process management higher education curricula.

Not really 100% about Deming but very relevant, I would recommend Alfie Kohn's "Punished by Rewards" [2] as a supplement to understand some of the implications of what happens when Deming's ideas are implemented without understanding the human condition.

Otherwise, Deming wrote and published plenty of his own work that is worth reading.

I had this same experience several years ago - someone signed up for an apple ID using my corporate email. I escalated it via the phone tree, and eventually got a phone call back from some sort of manager who was able to detach my email without otherwise disrupting the person's account.

I suspect that your best bet is to use the phone support via TTY. As a non-apple customer, I was very impressed by their dedication to resolving my issue, and I hope/suspect that if you can get your case escalated they will find a way to communicate with you without audio or sign. But getting to that point may require an initial interaction with the phone system. My experience did not lead to any linkage between my phone number and the problematic iCloud account.
Sure, agreed. Ant colonies do the same emergent behavior over and over again. Why should we be that different?

My point was that there is no Star Chamber where people do PowerPoints about the importance of making people work so much they don’t have energy to protest.

As someone with experience using services like these, and at the price point and solve speed their offering its quite clear that is a model. Legacy players using low paid humans had solve speeds >20 seconds usually and now model based solvers are now down to under a second.

This type of discussion always leads me to believe that the current model does not work. I always had the impression that, on average, we are all or will be enslaved in some way, what differentiates are values and benefits. So, one additional day to do my activities, be with my family, or just do nothing, seems very fair to me.
Thank you for the feedback!

The site is built on the assumption that the flake interface is here to stay. The reason is simply because it is a very powerful, general, and pure interface. To simplify the installation process, the https://mynixos.com/install-nix install script makes sure to enable the necessary config to use flakes.

Hopefully the feature will be declared stable soon, and I totally get your feelings towards depending on experimental features.
Whaaaat! That's very cool. I am surprised any article could mention Kurt Sr. without mentioning his son, if only as trivia.

Weak argument soz. You're appealing to your authority as a Theory PhD but haven't posted your papers so who cares. I can at least read Sabine's papers if I want to do that.

However, reviewing Sabine's cosmology papers to assess her arguments that theory research is poorly incentivised would be nonsensical anyway, so why even bother?

(To make my position clear, I actually don't agree with Sabine's angle that theory research is overvalued, but I do agree it focuses weirdly on some topics. I do read contemporary papers outside of what's presented via pop sci. But that should not be the content of your response if you are as credentialed as you say)

Interesting, I've encountered a lot of problems with Spotify on Android, but not that one.

I did have to do some work to track down the alphabetical ordering feature for my playlist listing, after they unset it and moved it, but it is possible to set it, at least for the main listing (I find the MRU thing helpful for the "Add to playlist" menu, so I don't mind that I don't know if it's possible to set it there).
They probably employ large teams of both good and bad UX designers, constantly deploying and A/B testing UI changes. If the A/B test says the change wins, it stays.

Sites like Booking.com do this to the umpteenth degree.

What the hell is a corporation to you?
Edit: I simplified my math. I know there are 24 hours of work in a day. It's not about that. The point is about rhythm.

7 days is 100%

If you'd work 7 days, there's no downtime to recover. You simply just tear into your reserves, and get less productive each week until you hit diminishing "returns" in being less productive, getting to some low productive apathy state. It's productivity rock bottom. There are people who can manage this but very few can.

6 days 86%. Now you can rest for a day. Great! But there's still little time for socializing and other stuff in life. There's no way of flourishing at all. Also, if there's trouble but not enough trouble (e.g. bad sleep), then you'll be using that day and there's no socialization at all that week. Or time to spend on your hobbies.

5 days is 71%. Now you can devote 29% of every week on free time. Literally 29% of your life is free. You can now absorb fairly big shocks that aren't covered in illness protection plans. You also have time to get into a hobby.

So why 4? The cyclical nature of the week makes it to be 57%. 43% is left to free time. I'm working this amount. If I include my vacation days with it, I work an exact 50% and am free 50%. I have sleep issues that no doctor cares to know about. My free day is on a Wednesday. If my sleep is screwed over then I can rest all day during a Wednesday or a Saturday. Sunday is always left over for free time. If I have a good week of sleep, then it can happen that I feel a bit bored. I have too much free time. It results in an iron clad focus on work.

I've worked 5 days per week. I never had an iron clad focus as I was always struggling with sleep. If my sleep was screwed over on Monday, then I'd need to suffer until Friday. Now I only need to suffer until Wednesday and sometimes I even swap days and don't have to suffer at all.

So that's a simple example of how it improves my focus. It's an example of how I'm probably more productive on 4 days than 5. Why more? Productivity drops by 50% for programmers with severe sleep deprivation.

Different sectors and situations may have different results. But I'd suggest to try and sketch out different scenarios where it does and doesn't work.

So why not 3? Well maybe 3. I can tell you why not 2, because it's extreme enough for me to see why. The context of work starts to fade. Your subconscious starts to deal with issues less to not at all (in the context of programming). It takes way longer to warm up. Why is this the case with 2? Because 2 days of work is only 29% of your week. Your identity will be formed around what you'll do in your free time. Work will become a "side thing". You will be amazingly well rested to work, provided you can manage your life well. But the extra increase in focus won't make up for it. The switch between 5 to 4 days may in certain cases may not up for it either, but in my particular case it's clear that it does.
They haven't even mastered implementing standard 40 hour weeks yet. Wait until they see the productivity gains from those.

TiDB Cloud – A MySQL Compatible HTAP Serverless Database
There are four reasons for me to choose TiDB Serverless:

1. MySQL compatible: no pain to use

2. HTAP: TiDB has a great TP performance and an excellent OP performante. See their OSSIsight project: https://ossinsight.io/

3. Serverless: The separation of storage and computing architecture makes TiDB Serverless cost-effective to the extreme

4. Rich ecosystem: Vercel + TiDB Serverless = A Freedom Porject. See https://vercel.com/integrations/tidb-cloud

Not at all. To the audience the blog is written for, the article is very sensible. When two folks who know computers quite well discuss some esoteric issue, they will use technical language and assume a certain level of competency and background knowledge; it's the same in physics.

I’m not the GP, but OT is pretty annoying to implement. There are so many cases that it’s quite difficult to formally prove an OT correct. On the other hand, a large subset of CRDTs can be implemented in Datalog and if you do that you can’t possibly end up with an invalid CRDT.

From wikipedia:

> Similarly, Joseph Gentle who is a former Google Wave engineer and an author of the Share.JS library wrote, "Unfortunately, implementing OT sucks. There's a million algorithms with different tradeoffs, mostly trapped in academic papers. […] Wave took 2 years to write and if we rewrote it today, it would take almost as long to write a second time." But later he amends his comment with "I no longer believe that wave would take 2 years to implement now - mostly because of advances in web frameworks and web browsers."
I see that in the app privacy report, but it doesn’t ask for location permission. Not really sure what to think. Perhaps it’s just tracking/logging your IP’s geo location and that alone is enough to require disclosure?

I had the exact same thought on that sequence.

The angle is a personal choice, though I think I agree that the mirroring angles of the two bridges was more interesting than having the horizon straightened. But the final "Tone Curve Corrected" turned a fairly nice image into a typical HDR-ruined photo, where the eye can't focus anywhere because all the colors have the same value.

To add some praise with the criticism, I thought the explorations of light white the photos of the wife were well done. Pointing the rear light at the subject's back to create that subtle halo is nice and I had not considered it.

You should also have a look at the much better performing Septentrio Mosaic series of GNSS receiver boards. There are dev kits available for a dual antenna heading RTK receiver for around €750. And €645 for single antenna. Dizzyingly cheap compared to what this class of receivers cost just a few years back.

These support all GNSS constellations and signals and do a real 50 Hz PVT in RTK mode. And they even come with a built in, quite useful web interface.
That’s what tin boxes are for. They keep their content fresh and protect it.
In my opinion next gen captcha should be asking user to prove that he's human.

For example ask him to upload his video with his ID. This video will be verified by another human operator.

In the end, user will be given some kind of identifier. He should present that identifier to anyone asking if he's a robot.

Of course that kind of verification will be paid. So you're paying $100 to get a verified identifier and then you keep that identifier (probably in the form of private key with signed public key).

There will be multiple certificate authorities who will issue those certificates to people. Rest of software companies will trust those authorities.

You need to renew that certificate every year.

If someone spotted your certificate being used in a nefarious schemes, your certificate will be revoked and you'll need to pay $5000 fine next time you'll ask for new certificate.

If you don't possess certificate, you're not qualified to be a human.
I doubt that the reason for the suddenly appearing banner in the first example is a slow internet connection. The app checks if the mouse is near the button and then the banner is loaded. A form of clickjacking.
Determining ways to win a destructive conflict is a mechanism to signal willingness to cooperate, and the value of that cooperation (averting the war in the first place). Pretending they’re mutually exclusive is wrong.
I wrote this in another comment:

As a naturalized US citizen who was born in China but intends to raise a family as full-bore Americans, it's hard for me to assess the China threat.

I believe China very much wants to assert it's influence in the Asia Pacific + MENA region, but I just don't it trying to conquer the United States directly. It's never really had a history of imperialism like the West has (excluding the Mongol empire that collapsed almost immediately).

That said, a country doesn't need to directly conquer another to be a threat. Still, it's hard to know how serious the threat really is—the post is compelling but also assumes as a forgone conclusion that China has aggressor ambitions.
I mean, I most certainly would never use a crooked cross for the reason you point out, but it's a bit much to demand that an ancient culture change their behaviour because of your lack of discernment with regard to usage and intent.

It's also worth pointing out that the Nazi's barely did anything in the US. They inflicted their horrors on millions of people in Europe. The horror of genocide against native Americans in the US wasn't perpetuated by Nazis.

If you want to fight back against such evils in the present day, rather than making a fuss about symbols, the world would be be better served if you helped fight back against those who inherited the hate of the nazis and now perpetuate it on Palestinians in Palestine. In fact many who carry that torch come from USA to squat on and steal Palestinian lands. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbPnF8Hvj0I
If you never lift weights, and everyone else around you does, don't be surprised when the "cooperation" tilts in their favor. Such is the nature of man.
