>Evolution will favor those who trade over those who don't since the ones trading will be more efficient. There will blips along the way but unless you can convince me otherwise how a closed system will be more efficient, in the very long time, globalization is our fate.

You're looking at this wrong. The dichotomy isn't Globalization vs No Trade. It's more of Globalization & Free Trade vs Limited Conditional Trade. Throughout all of written human history there was trade. But there wasn't free trade like today where everyone is able to trade with one another so freely with little cost. Historically, only big powers who had massive navies to protect their own ships were able to trade in meaningful quantities. Today the USN guarantees all global shipping.

Morris Chang has long opposed moving Fabs to the US where most of his customers were because so long as the cost of moving stuff was negligible it made little sense. But Taiwan's trade is not guaranteed by the Republic of China Navy. And it's customers are overwhelming American.

Post Covid & Ukraine Invasion it is clear that neither the US government, nor US corporations believe that there is no cost to crucial supply chains being located abroad. Nor is the transport of those vital supplies considered to be effectively negligible. TSMC leadership likely had some difficult conversations behind closed doors which to effect amounted that with the current status quo they are too expensive, and if they do not relocate some of their fabs to the US, their customers will look to alternative partners.
Egypts first female pharaoh was described in contemporary texts as being blonde.
I wonder if this counts for the people in DC jail for Jan 6, or is that some quasi-federal thing since DC is a district by itself? But then I’d think it was at least somewhat a federal matter, and a speedy trial, one would hope, should apply at any level.
Also Billy Mitchell of Fyre Festival... wire fraud instead of bilking his concert attendees.
I agree with you, HOWEVER, we have yet to see or hear rumors of any type of search warrant(s) being executed in the Bahamas or the US.

As we saw with the Fyre Festival guy and other similar fraud cases, the government wants to move quickly to secure physical hard drives. In the case of that dude, Fyre happened on Thursday and they executed a search warrant at his apartment on Monday morning.

It’s possible that grand jury subpoenas have already been issued and served, but that doesn’t typically generate the criminal intent evidence they will need for this case.

We also know from former employees that routine business was typically discussed on Signal. That’s probably not a great sign for the government as they will need physical access to the devices used OR they will need to snag an iCloud (or other) device backup and grab the contents from there.

Your points about a speedy trial and losing a case are generally valid BUT the DOJ can always opt to file a superseding indictment once he is in custody. I don’t know the full deal with Extradition from the Bahamas but it’s likely it will take some time (several months). Despite this being a white collar case the government will absolutely seek to keep him incarcerated given his flight risk and resources unaccounted for. Anything he’s embezzled from FTX in the span shortly before bankruptcy will be used by the DOJ as proof he has hidden resources.

Remember, in pretrial arguments, they can come up with pretty far fetched or ridiculous arguments that have no merit or bearing later on. For example, in the case of Marcus Hutchins (the WannaCry kid), prosecutors argued he was potentially violent because he visited a shooting range several days prior. He was, in fact, in Las Vegas for DEFCON and went to one of many shooting ranges advertised on the Strip.
> Fermilab/CERN were going to stream and... not anymore. Perhaps the bugs and instability were a bit too much.

Not exactly. CentOS Stream is still a standard offering for them, and they've told me they are pretty happy with the stability and getting faster bug fixes. The problem is that too many third party vendors are refusing to keep their software compatible with CentOS Stream, so the environments that depend on those vendor's software must stay pinned to RHEL or a RHEL clone. It's unfortunate because if those vendors also targeted CentOS Stream they would be compatible with new RHEL minor releases on day 1, rather than forcing their users to pin to older minor versions while they play catch up.
Agree with this post. Low-code lets a non-engineer build 80% of an app quickly, but then ultimately that last 20% requires engineering work and it ends up taking more total eng/IT time to create something far less maintainable and useful.

I think the best low-code platforms are ones that are ultimately built on top of code (eg Webflow, where the underlying representation is normal HTML/CSS/JS). I wrote a blog post about how I think low-code platforms are broken and how they could be fixed: https://www.airplane.dev/blog/how-to-fix-low-code-with-more-...

That's kinda like saying the Mafia could be good if it weren't for all the bad actors.

That's I think where we're at with crypto.

Include directories is an option which defines paths for your imports in protobuf files. In large projects it's commonly use case when you have directory of protobuf types that used in another files with service definitions for example.

You do the great project, I tested HTTP features and they looks good! I'm sure that you will improve gRPC experience soon. Thank you for your comment, I will subscribe for your updates!

I like that a lot of projects enters gRPC world - this promotes gRPC and making it easy to use.
I think Kotlin will see a nice rise in adoption, as the refactoring seems big enough to warrant moving to a language that embraces certain semantics and remove some magic.

This is exactly what I was going to point out. People seem to forget that these kinds of cases take a lot of time to build.

(Context: Previously, this item's title matched the article - "Archiving official documents as an act of radical journalism". Vs. the current title - "The importance of distributing true copies of government records" is far more descriptive of the article's contents.)

Yes, and yes (if you sufficiently restrict "norm" to very recent years) - but the article was published in Columbia Journalism Review - which is published by Columbia University. An institution which should bring a few scraps of sober historical perspective to the table. "Radical journalism" is stuff like being a party to New York Times Co. v. United States ( 1971, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Times_Co._v._United_S... ). Not doing something that most small-city newspapers were routinely doing back in the 1950's. (Because what reporter wanted to waste time dragging back & forth to City Hall, to consult their records, when he was writing a story about how this year's City Budget gave X% less money to the Roads Dept. and Y% more to the Fire Dept., and Councilman Smith voted twice against item Z?)

Python averages around 40-50ms, and bb averages 30-40ms.

Well, much of the current field is about increasing the number of high fidelity q-bits. With the idea being that interesting problems will finally occur (IE, a slam-dunk, yes that was useful to know, sort of result that couldn't possibly be done with classical computers) when some qbit threshold is achieved.

The Curse Of Almost: Your tool is great, it's almost perfect... except for that one little thing it can't do, which your users need to do, which, therefore, leads to masses of ugly hacks unless you provide access to an escape hatch where sufficiently motivated experts can drop down to a real language which doesn't have your DSL's limitations and get the job done.

It's the Curse Of Almost because, if it were too much worse of a fit for the problem, nobody would even think of using it to solve that problem. Getting someone 90% there and crapping out puts your users in a more awkward position, especially if they feel they've invested effort in whatever tool they have.

An example is Talend versus CSV: Talend is an ETL Solution which Extracts data from some source, Transforms it according to a graphical DAG of ideally stateless components, and Loads it into some other storage. It's also a happy, friendly GUI on top of Java, which is nice, because the Real World isn't kind to happy, friendly GUI solutions which expect CSV is going to conform to any of your syntax rules or other misguided preconceptions about files having structure. So, when you have to run a Talend pipeline on vaguely-comma-delimited text files which may once have been machine-readable, you can make your own component which is literally just a block of Java code to parse the file using the Zerg Rush Of Ad-Hoc Rules Technique, an oft-overlooked method for designing parsers. You can also use that kind of thing to make components which are tasteless enough to demand state variables other than the stereotyped kind Talend itself provides.

> Another problem is that managers/CEOs think that if you have no-code tools you no longer need engineers.

Or you can cheap out on engineers, because they don't have to code, just use a GUI (which must be easy, it's just point-and-click right? /s) and don't realize that, to solve any problems except the most stereotyped happy-path examples, you need more expertise because now you're actively going against the grain. This isn't as bad in Talend as it is in other things I've worked with, but even in Talend once you start writing actual Java in the components you need to worry about scoping rules because your Java code is just dumped into the middle of a great big method written by Talend itself and the Java compiler isn't in on the gag.

The part I touch to lower is the top of the lid, so relatively distant. But the part I touch to raise is the underside of the lid, at the edge. While it might not be in the most direct line-of-fire, I would expect it would actually get a decent amount of particles because it is adjacent to an air gap, where pressure would escape. But I'm no aerodynamicist — just speculating!

> In reality the time sink is getting clarity on the requirements and understanding the interactions of the components on the page.

This is the core issue with any sort of complex system. Absolutely nothing matters when the customer is non-responsive with requirements or is not providing enough feedback on prior iterations.

Code vs no-code has absolutely no bearing on this part of the equation.

I do think there is value in low-code or scripted/DSL solutions, but it has to be a very intentional strategy that isn't simply leaning on "configurable == done faster".
I typically rely on keeping background noise going to drown out the tinnitus, but I’ve also found that earplugs can work.

I don’t use them as much, but in my case, yeah, they’ll increase the volume of the tinnitus. In a weird way though, I’ve found that if that’s all you’re hearing then you can kind of get used to it and your mind starts to kind of drown out the noise. You can also meditate and focus on the tinnitus with the same effect, and there too the earplugs can help.

I don’t tend to wear them for more than an hour or two since even the soft ear plugs seem to make my ear ache.

A lot of their money is from enterprise contracts. These businesses have strict privacy requirements and would immediately end their Microsoft contracts or sue the company is they were monetizing their data. Let alone businesses with regulated privacy laws like medical or fintech. No business would touch them with a 10 foot pole.

For Windows Home or other free/bundle solutions, it's a different situation. But not for enterprise or pro/higher-tier customers.
I think one thing to keep in mind here is that, while everything you said is true for most ordinary defendants, Sam's parents are both highly regarded Stanford law professors. They have both been spotted in the Bahamas with him, and are certainly giving him counsel here, not to mention any whiteshoe legal team he's hired. Sam may be a lot of things, but he's not an idiot. There is no doubt that what he's doing is part of a calculated strategy, and it is a virtual certainty that that strategy has been approved of by legally serious elements of his defense team.

Whether or not it works time will tell, but it's a mistake to think that he's just a fool running his mouth.
Don't have anything significant, but giving this a quick test with some of my advent of code solutions I found it to be quite a bit slower:

It wasn't a ton of work to get running, but I had to comment out some stuff that isn't available. Some notable pain points: I couldn't import code from another file in the same directory and I couldn't do zip(*my_list) because asterisk wasn't supported in that way. I would consider revisiting it if I needed a single-file program that needs to work on someone else's machine if the compilation works as easily as the examples.

Yes. You may laugh at me for trying to use Linux on a computer that was not built for it.
While AMD might not have "official" support for their consumer hardware lineup on offerings that have traditionally been a non-consumer area of GPGPU, there is plenty of evidence that it will indeed still work just fine on most of them (once compiled properly and sometimes with the right environment flags); as witnessed by me and even people in the link you reference. I agree that "official" support would be great eventually, but for me as long as it works, that's adequate enough for me on consumer hardware.
I don't know much about gitpod, but from reading the github repo, it appears they were deploying into k8s clusters with a fairly complicated application.

I suspect that is the issue.

At $curjob, we offer self-hosted versions, but our product is a monolith (in java, if that matters) that needs a RDBMS and optionally a proxy and elasticsearch. That architectural simplicity lets us offer self hosted solutions in a variety (deb, rpm, zip, docker image, docker compose, kubernetes).

But we're also an application component (auth server) not a full featured application. A full fledged application would be tougher to support, but if I were to try, I'd definitely start with a monolith.

Having worked from home for 20 years now, it was great pre-pandemic. Once the office crowd came online over the last few years, having no working from home skills and wanting to do things as if they were still in the office, then I can see why you'd rather be in the office. This office at a distance model is quite horrid.
there should be a class that is just low-math "implications of QM on natural philosophy" to satisfy those with the curiousity but not the inclinations towards heavy math.

At the very least the class should be able to get through the two-slit experiment, EPR, and Bell's tests with a clear point being that nobody currently understands "how" entanglement works at the physical level.

Are you running on your own hardware? I've found the latest commits to be less stable and it's hard to know what to run.
Of course. From what I can tell, there is virtually zero effort to create, accommodate, or contribute to adapters that allow Next.js to run at bug-free, full (or close to full) performance on any other turn-key serverless platforms i.e. Netlify or Amplify. I think Next.js' poor performance on Netlify ultimately reflects poorly on Vercel as much as it does on Netlify, for better or worse. We (the customers) are being swept up in what appears to be your skirmish.

Meanwhile, Next.js is becoming increasingly opinionated in ways that make it difficult to justify ongoing investment. Turbopack was announced without any commitment for plugins, for example. Hats off to your team for being able to attract and retain talent, but I (and I suspect many others) have a growing sense of anxiety centered around the fact that you can pull the rug out from under the rest of the ecosystem at any time. In exchange for that we're being given incremental build performance improvements and more configuration requirements that we could live without on all sides.

It's untenable to try to secure commitment to migrate a plethora of sites implemented in a given framework to its parent platform when that platform effectively appears hostile towards alternatives.
