Yup. Microsoft continuing to make purchases like this is how we end up with them being the Disney of gaming.

A giant backlog of great stuff that was made by smaller studios placing their bets on a project they think is good and has passion behind it, and a bunch of perfectly mediocre, forgettable new stuff with logos of IPs we used to love, the product of numbers crunched from focus group testing that couldn't possibly offend anyone for any reason.
The point of the postmortem is to educate people as to what to do differently. You get more value out of the "accident" frame than out of the "malice" frame, which has already been intensively explored by the DOJ. Most organizations aren't going to be in a position of having a formal federal prosecutor serving as CSO and Deputy General Counsel making grave errors in fitting a report to a bug bounty process instead of a criminal investigation, but it's easy to imagine a variety of organizations landing in a variety of different scrapes about how to route reports that might trigger breach report liability.
I find stack traces to contain more noise and less signal than the error messages I see in Go. So the idea that exceptions with stack traces give you “both things for free” doesn’t match my experience. I have professional experience in both software engineering and operations for apps written in both styles—from my experience, using exceptions makes it easier to write the code, and harder to diagnose errors in the running application.
Why do you think that the parent poster is entitled to watch it? There is clearly the option of not watching it.
I have used Waze regularly since 2014, and my perception is that it plans more aggressive routes (trickier turns, using side streets, etc) to shave off a few more minutes than Maps, whereas Maps will stick to the major, less complicated routes. But I haven't used Maps for routing lately, so I wouldn't be surprised if Waze/Maps are more similar than I realize.
I see the arrogance of devs here who think scalability and performance are the core metrics. They are not. Outside of security, its the customer requirement that takes priority. We can point to a mountain of well written software that the customers wont touch with a ten feet pole.

The trouble is treating No-code as the final product. Its the MVP that can be rapidly iterated which the end customers can play around to visualize and make sense of the product. This helps to understand what the customer wants and if it makes significant improvement to their workflow and creates value. It helps to streamline requirements and get you as close to final design as possible. Any executive worth their value should not be paying smart engineers to build a product that noone is going to use.
I mean I assume that retail is about as close to the bone as food service is currently, meaning there just isn't really anything to cut.
Since everything is already running as a container, it really doesn't matter
I was a military child, and so I moved around my whole life. My best friend has lived their whole life in the city I live in now.

Sometimes I get a little jealous because I don't have any heart-connection to any place. Most of the friends I regularly talk to are people I've met within the last 5 years, and I still don't have any still-standing friendships from the time before my dad retired.

But also, I cannot imagine that life, nor do I know if I really want to. Moving around so much gave me such a wide array of interests and cultural knowledge about places in and outside of the US. I think the benefits of that well-rounded background outweigh whatever pangs of sadness I get occasionally about not really feeling like I have a homeland.
Most choices are not cake or bread.

Most choices are bread or going hungry.

Or a new bridge instead of an old failing bridge or no bridge at all.

The fact that the bridge failed catastrophicly rather than ductally suggests the fundamental problem was systemic in the design and the mode of failure was from unanticipated forces.

What I mean that if the force was 8x the design load 2x vs 4x safety factors would be irrelevant.
Also the Airforce and Northrop Grumman must be familiar with the idea of celestial navigation. And the shot was clearly taken in the evening on purpose (I assume, at least, that a PR shot has to justify being taken outside of maximum daylight).

They probably want it to feel vaguely spacey for the sci-fi vibes.

They’ve got at least as good star charts as the rest of us, so if they really wanted to be jokers they could photoshop some stars in, make it look like it is flying over an adversary’s country…
Is this not Elon's email on the Cypherpunk mailing list?
I've read some things that suggest the B-21 may not offer radical new capabilities (over say, the B-2) but it will be way way cheaper to build and operate.

There were only 21 B-2s ever built. The Air Force has already ordered 100 B-21s.
The point isn't to determine Sullivan's guilt or innocence. That's already happened. The point is to mine actionable information for other startups out of it. That's McGeehan's whole M.O. with all of his writing.
> International Style had its biggest impact in the US on NYC and just look down park ave to see those buildings getting torn down. Union Carbide being a great example.

My point is you saw a lot less of people complaining about how ugly the style was.

> plenty of brutalist buildings have been and will be torn down, but I doubt Harvard is going to get rid of it’s Le Corbisier and I bet in 60 years people will talk about how lucky they are to have the only built example of his work in the Western Hemisphere.

Bet most people will still think it's ugly, even in 60 years.
"In gaming we have one goal: which is to bring more games to more gamers on all platforms" - Satya Nadella
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZdo0elQI_8)

How does xbox-exclusive releases fit in with this goal? Are are just playing word games where you mean you'll release a bunch of indie and old games to more platforms while restricting new games?

I am not making a judgement whether or not the merger should go through, but I would love that the result to be the end of deliberate platform exclusive titles
I think that's probably a trade off that large enterprises often make. It tends to work well for very large teams, and especially if you're trying to make your tech team fungible. Still, there's such a thing as taking it too far.

I think there's a middle ground. Sure, a single crontab makes it hard for packages to schedule things and makes it hard to assign ownership to individual packages/people/whatever. I can recognize that, and how it would be a problem for a large enterprise or even just for software developers who want to bundle some kind of cronjob with their package.

What you could do instead of a crontab is have one folder with a bunch of services/timers in it, where each file represents a single service that needs to be run. It would mean that you can still understand all of what's going on timer wise by looking carefully at one source, but you can still assign different services/timers to different people/packages/organizational-units/whatever.

Splitting each individual cronjobs into 2 different files is just crazy from where I am. Like you already have a bunch of different service types, at least give us the option to use a "periodic-oneshot" service type instead of this craziness. There's no need to have different packages/people responsible for a service and its timer, and if there is some edge case where it is you can still have ssperate timer services just they can live in a separate periodic-oneshot service file and use the original service as a dependency.

There's separation of concerns and then there's this. Take any principle too far and you get some craziness, and systemd has most of the infrastructure needed to solve this in a much more elegant way. Like at some point it has to just be bad design and not just different priorities, right?
I’ve used extensions for this for years, on Chrome and Firefox.

> ...most projects where team lead was not willing to "mutilate" were a disaster.

It seems like you agree that my core statement ("sometimes the smallest unit of work cannot and can never fit into a one (or even two) week Sprint") is correct, but are unwilling to explicitly say so.

> Are you saying changing state handling...

I'm saying that neither you nor I have the details required to understand the minimum time required for the project.

You've said yourself that you have experience with tasks that have justifiably run longer than a work-week. So, it's clear that -given more information about the task- you could be convinced that the time estimate is a reasonable estimate of the time required.
I feel like when you diss journalists, it should generally be for something they actually did wrong, not preemptively based on your imagination.

If they are so terrible, there should be no need to invent stuff.

When people read something like this post, and they are predisposed to the idea, it’ll reinforce their skepticism of „the mainstream media“. If you want to test yourself, make a bet of how many media outlets will run with the story in the manner outlined above, then check in a few days. My prediction: you won’t see it in the NYT, WSJ, BBC, or on CNN.
Geostationary orbits are well beyond measurable atmospheric drag; the expected lifetime is on the order of millions of years. Geostationary satellites do have a limited oeprational lifespan, but it's not because of orbital decay, it's because they need propellant for stationkeeping to adjust for irregularities in the orbit, and that propellant is finite and eventually runs out.
All IMHO of course: we'd be better off if it was 9 of 10. The family is the most important institution we have, it is the backbone driving the most valuable members of our society. The stronger and more cohesive it is the better.

There's a countervailing factor which is that more earnings and economic output arise from jobs in urban areas, which historically can only happen if some members relocate.

Hopefully the trend towards remote work helps alleviate this conflict.
It was a good day when we finally removed 100% of the C and C++ code from the D compiler and all of the runtime library (including the memory manager). The assembler code uses D's inline assembler.

The test suite has C code in it, because of course D can compile C code.
Does SC2 do rank based matchmaking?
Yeah, sure, but it's frustrating. Sure casual users who won't saturate the network get fast offloaded performance.

However more aggressive users will end up enabling more complicated firewall rules, QoS, buffer bloat mitigation, or deep packet inspection and disabling the silicon based acceleration or bottlenecking elsewhere.

Thus my interest in the RK3588, that provides 4x the PCIe of the RPi4 and a fair bit more CPU.

I do wish there was a popular benchmark that used a more realistic benchmark. Smaller packets, dozens or 100s of TCP sessions, non-trivial firewall rules, etc. Doesn't seem like you learn much from iperf managing 95% of of line rate with large packets.

But here's the iperf numbers I stumbled across:

thanks for your comment! I know that React or Svelte is more relevant nowadays, but as I mentioned, it's not my option.

I am thinking about Websockets as well, even I don't understand how it works in depth, I'll look into that.
also I might also try using gRPC instead of REST APIs since this is becoming possible.
this may seem a lot, but I hope I can get may head around this in 3 months :)
It's about separation of concerns. The happy path is one flow, and the error path is another.

The business logic is no longer mixed with the implementation details. You can look at the code and very quickly reason about the business logic. Yes the implementation details still exist but they can be reasoned about on their own.
I would formalize it as "(corruption ∨ ¬guilty) <-> ¬jail".

- If the government is corrupted it does not matter if SBF is guilty, he will not go jail.
- If the government is not corrupted and SBF is not guilty, he will not go to jail.
- Only if the government is not corrupted and SBF is guilty, he will go to jail.

The problem is: There are more factors in life that just a corrupted government and guilt. There are jurys, capable lawyers, incapable DAs, loopholes, you name it.

So in truth we have "(corruption ∨ ¬guilty ∨ X) <-> ¬jail", with X being the unknown. Thus, if SBF does not go to jail, it could be true that the government is not corrupted, that SBF is guilty, but any of the other factors were at work.

I think this is what people are really arguing about: what will be causally relevant for the outcome. Mind you, even a conviction would not convict (ha!) people that the convernment is not corrupt. They'd rather say that somebody did not pay enough, other interests were at work, aliens, and so on.

The truth is that you cannot infer much based on a singular outcome if you do not have extremely good insight into the mechanics behind the outcome. Which is precisely why people rather update priors as a way to build up an evaluation based on statistics over a longer time frame. Quite ingenious, if you ask me.
> Also Microsoft offered to make Call of Duty available on PlayStation for the next 10 years, which is unprecedented.

So what? That was obviously just a move to try and prevent the FTC from doing exactly this, not out of the goodness of their hearts. Great, 10 years of 1 series continuing to be cross-platform, and then you blink and 10 years is up and Microsoft has bought the entire gaming space and Sony dies a slow death because they didn't have infinite money like Microsoft. Or Microsoft buys them too!

Here's your 12 new plates of gray goo to choose from, straight out of the Microsoft games factory. Enjoy.
When Switzerland introduced "one ticket for all" I was a bit confused about what to expect. Well, travel is almost a non-event nowadays: you jump into the first thing coming by (including long distance trains, boat, bus, you name it) and go on with your trip. Adding to that is the mobile ticketing system where you check in when you start and the fare will be calculated when you check-out, always picking the best options (like, if any reductions are available on the trip, or combinations with local transport)... Plus a bus station in front of the house, regular and often connections even at night in the weekends, USB chargers and power sockets and almost working wireless (this needs work though) no wonder I keep the car only for carrying groceries and such. I hope you too will get there soon.

PS but the Swiss all-inclusive ticket is WAY more expensive, like 10x...
It's notable because it's practically a brand new bridge - only 10 years into its 100 year life span. Bridges that fail are typically much further into their projected life spans, and the ones that aren't make headlines (like Tacoma Narrows). It's also a novel design, so lots of heads will be scratched while figuring out where the mistakes were made. Was the mistake in analysis? Materials? Something else?

I say novel design, but it's more like some novel techniques for combining wood and metal together. The basic bridge design is fairly common but typically built using all wood or all metal. When you look at it it's fairly similar to train bridges from last century.
Most Americans live in what the US Census categorizes as urban. Which is a very broad definition of basically communities somewhat in the orbit of an urban area.
The secretary of defense mentioned "deterrence" as part of the reasoning. Maybe not-so-coincidentally, the aircraft (at least as they showed it) skips the old school black paint job for one that looks more like anti-flash white[0].

Part of it is probably also that this is a refinement of an existing aircraft and not anything with drastically different capabilities-- if you're planning on war with the US, you're probably already thinking about B-2s, and if you're worried about B-2s then a B-21 isn't that different.

I can think of a lot of different ones...
A lot of upperwardly mobile, ambitious people don't realize this, or they generally understand it only in terms of chastising their high school peers who stayed home. If you build a society based on the assumption everyone will simply move and re-skill to the regions with economic opportunity, you get a lot of regions of bitter people who stayed behind somewhere and watched their local economy get destroyed by trade deals and technological advances, and that's how you get an anti-globalization populist political movement.
Why would retail have layoffs? It’s not like stores are over staffed, at least any of the ones I frequent. If anything they are super understaffed.
Your college experience sounds pretty terrible. Some of us were able to have a great social life while learning
Use case - Road warrior who spends around 3 months a year traveling in various areas of the US, 50/50 urban areas vs rural or very small towns.

I find the Waze experience on Carplay to be far superior to Gmaps. I prefer how it provides access to the key features like reporting/voice prompt, the size/position/color how things are displayed, etc. The level of detail (surrounding streets and landmarks) is more useful on Waze.

My experience has been that Waze seems to have better traffic prediction and avoidance in the areas I use it. Just last night I was following a cow orker from the plant we were working at to a restaurant about 30 mins away. We were right behind each other when my Waze suggested taking the exit and following a different route than my friend. I arrived at the restaurant a good 5 minutes before him, I asked, and he was using gmaps.
This was a bug in the WiFi portal’s api. No need for the airline to fix anything. It simply affected their customers.
Yes absolutely. In fact I switched to Flutter precisely because React Native was so broken. Every time I upgraded, some package broke. Expo is alright but as soon as you try to do something outside of it, it sucked.

Packages didn't break on Flutter, releases are quite stable and preserve backward compatibility, at least generally.
Originally (2002) a /48 per site was recommended in RFC3177.

More recently (2011) RFC6177 took a more pragmatic / softened approach, but it does say:

- it should be easy for an end site to obtain address space to
number multiple subnets (i.e., a block larger than a single /64)
and to support reasonable growth projections over long time
periods (e.g., a decade or more).

I don't really understand why ISPs choose to be so stingy with allocations. An extra 8 bits of address space to allocate /56 instead of /64 costs them effectively nothing and has considerable operational benefits, simplifies CPE configuration etc. Just minds still living in IPv4 land I guess.
The car is absolutely not preferable if you value using your time for anything else than staring at the road and concentrating on driving.

Google Maps also suggests 6.5 hours by car compared to 4.5 hours by train between Munich and Berlin.
Actually after being away from home for 20 years I'd love to go back but wife and kids prefer staying :(.
How long until we get the systemd kernel?

The most frustrating thing about Waze is that it doesn't have offline maps. I get that the main selling point is live traffic data, but that's not necessarily an either/or with offline maps.
yeah a study that can be summarized as: "when you lie to people, they believe you", which is not exactly groundbreaking.
Definitely selection bias in some way.

I saw an Armbian release for a similar RK3588 sbc, hopefully that image works and had a mainline kernel.
is A,B,C,D in the database the same as D,C,B,A? Or does order infer orientation?
> What’s the benefit of Waze being a separate app at this point besides the brand name? Why not just fold it into the main Maps app?

There are differences in my region which make me think that the apps have different mapping and routing engines.

Turn by turn dirrections and road condition information are much more accurate in Waze. There's a larger Waze local community that helps keep maps up to date.

We do use Google Maps, but mostly as a Yellow Pages substitute or for checking business opening time.
I personally find journalctl -fu $service very cathartic, because I'm almost always typing this command when $service isn't working.
Too much of the web is mobile these days to be dismissing it.

Yes, mobiles on v6-only with NAT64 to reach legacy v4 hosts is a massive success story. How can you say with a straight face that it's not?

Most big landline ISPs in the US are doing v6. Comcast, the poster child for awful ISPs, winner of multiple worst company in America awards, has been running v6 over their entire network for years now.
Nothing shocking about it really. Woman have the option to do it. Heterosexual men usually don’t. So woman who choose not to do it are not worse off than low income men in the same situation. In other words, woman have the advantage of having a choice and some choose to take advantage of it. Good for them. If they find it to be a better choice than working in a soul destroying Amazon warehouse or low income foot joint why not?
In the meantime, most personnel in IT department do not have time for newer apps to be integrated as they are still battling against the organization of Active Directory made 20 years ago... (only half joking unfortunately)
100% agree to all that. But I think every game being released is considered disappointing at this point. I'm trying to hold off judgement until PvE comes out ... hopefully this lifetime.

Anyways my quote is "enjoy playing", and sounds like we both fall into that category. The game engine and polish with the original is often overlooked IMO.

Growing up where the aspirants move to is such an odd place to be in certain social circles. Simultaneous jealousy and judgement.

Exactly, whereas stars shown in the image are just data, you don't need the exif data to see them.
Not really my experience. Seems to depend what "mood" Google Maps is in. I've definitely had it take me on circuitous routes even with recent snow which almost always makes the circuitous routes worse. If you somewhat know the area you can of course usually override.
I just wanted to say that I used AirTable recently to organize some complicated, but business-facing data, and it was awesome. I highly recommend it.
I grew up listening to baseball on AM radio. Can't stand to watch the game on TV. Too boring. But on radio? I can go into the garage or the shop and work on something and listen to the game.

I listen to football games in a pinch. Sometimes I have errands to run while a game is on and so I listen in on radio. It's amazing how they call a game. That's a talent that's going to be sad to see die.

I've been having this problem for months. The solution I settled on was a root cronjob that just does `ifconfig awdl0 down` every minute.

It makes shared clipboard not work as well with my iPhone, but at least I get 180Mbps/70ms on the work VPN instead of 4mbps/70-700ms.

The interface stays down till the laptop sleeps, so most of the time it's a no-op.
