Could be. I've noticed my iPhone started to accidentally intermittently lose WiFi connection, only to reconnect again in ~3-5 seconds. I wasn't sure if this is iOS or UniFi AP bug, but I suppose it could be the former.
I just don’t get that. Either the market advantage / concentration is ok or it’s not. Why let them have what they claim is an inappropriate share, just later?
I don't care how good any one company is at $thing; that doesn't mean they should be allowed to own the entire market for $thing. That's just not healthy for a society or an economy.

There's already way, way, way too much consolidation in industry today (not just "the games industry"; all of industry). What we need to be doing is breaking up many of these megacorporations, and then reversing the burden of proof for mergers & acquisitions: not "we'll stop this if it's proven that it would be harmful," but "we won't allow this unless it's proven to be beneficial", with a fairly high bar.

It just seems so absurd to me to see so many people who trumpet the power of the "free market", but then advocate for this kind of hyper-consolidated situation as if it's remotely like a "free market". Yes, sure, I can buy my $thing from Oppressive Megacorp A, B, or C, all of whom have a huge interest in maintaining the status quo and avoiding meaningful competition.
I always assumed this format was a derivative of Churchil's saying ("I am a man of simple tastes easily satisfied with the best"). Looked it up and apparently it has a distinct source of its own.
Just saw this through Wes Bod recommend on Twitter. Great stuff!
WoW was too big of a cash cow for too long, and sucked the oxygen out of the room at Blizzard; everyone who was involved with making non-WoW games left.
'Make everything simple as it can be but no simpler'. To me your ask violates this.

Timers augment the variety of existing service types, so your idea just doesnt work straight up, unless we severely limit the flexibility of what timers can be via the 'periodic' type. Or we make 'periodic-oneshot' 'periodic-serice' et cetera, which feels absurd.

Perhaps we could leave Service= alone & just shoehorn each systemd.timer option into system.service. But then we need some way to view the timer statuses & logs, which we can easily review and handle by having a separate unit. 'list-timers' is ok & might still work but we cant filter and log as well if everything is jammed together. We also cant just disable a timer temporarily, & go manage the service manually for a bit, if somethings going sideways & we need to step in; the two are now one in your world.

And what if you want multiple timers, with different configurations between them (maybe one long running one with WakeSystem= and a shorter one without?). We eliniate a lot of creative ability by glomming stuff together.

I dont like this idea. I think it's a misservice to jam everything together. Systemd has similar patterns of representing different pars in different places that I think has served it well. It's an even more trivial case that is more supportable by this idea you've floated, but there is a systemd.mount and systemd.automoumt. It's just good, as an operator, having clear boundaries between these units, and has always made it clearer to me what aspect Im operating on, and enabled healthier patterns of system growth.
Overall, I am glad that this shift in direction is happening for Gitpod. They are still leading the CDE movement (IMO) and this gives them a better chance at continuing to do that. I don't want this space to collapse into just use codespaces, it's mediocre, but whatever because innovators businesses couldn't keep their products alive long-term. Official support just doesn't feel like it was ever a money-maker, nor is it something that the target audience would really use IMO, at least not now.
I am not saying the list is correct, but we all kind of live in a bubble, last week i met a customer they have 12 dev and all write....wait for it...ColdFusion! On something called lucee. I would have predicted that in 2000-2008 but today?? Well he said they are pretty happy with it, it runs it works..i am happy for them.
AI learns to write computer code in ‘stunning’ advance
I live about an hour away from where I grew up, but my family moved nearby so they’re just a few miles away. Modern economic trends that rip families apart have many downsides. It’s much harder to raise kids without family nearby. Likewise, people who don’t have family close are much more likely to fall through the cracks if they don’t have family around.
> I am actually surprised at how correlated layoffs have been across the industry.

Given one a16z VC gloating about it and praising Musk's "sack everyone and work the rest to death", I wouldn't be surprised if it's the billionaires co-ordinating.

It's not as though suppressing workers is new, and SV got co-ordinating their efforts to crush salaries.
I had tinnitus for more than a decade but it didn’t bother me. The scary part was the constant muffled hearing. I used to cup my hand behind my ear a lot.

It's worth noting that stars can be seen even in daylight with the right software.

That's because, while no individual star is visible, the exact angles between all stars is fixed, so you can do a brute force search of all possible orientations of the sky to find a matching one. In a 6 megapixel image of half blue sky, you effectively get an oversampling ratio of 3 million:1, so even with very bright sunlight obscuring the stars to the naked eye, your algorithm will pick them out.
Do you know how team dynamics work day-to-day? What the relationship between the product team and developers is like? Who drives new features? How is work assigned and scheduled? How big are teams? What are teams structured like? Is there frequent movement between teams?

Ask questions that aren't easy to find out without asking current employees, and that don't put employees on the spot. I can do that for hours.

With execs, questions turn more to product roadmaps, marketplace fit, revenues and budgeting, but again, I bet I can come up with interesting and practical questions longer than any slot any interviewer has in their calendar.

It's possible that the recruiter was expecting questions like the above, and saw your reasonable confidence as either over-confidence, incuriosity, or both.
I find that even less plausible. I don't suspect that the null reference practices in, say Java, have any influence on the way people work in Lisp.

Optional parameters in Lisp take on a value of nil when the argument is omitted (unless a different default is specified). Various search functions return nil when an item is not found: find, member, gethash, ...

The practices around these conventions may, at times, resemble work in static languages with null references, but there is no cause-and-effect there.
There are few issues with your rebuttal.

1. Google Search makes 0 money from ad impressions. They only make money through either clicks or conversions.
2. If your search doesn't have commercial intent they will likely not even serve you an ad.
3. If your search has commercial intent that falls under the definition of a commercial search.
4. You need very up-to-date information to support commercial search. Whether that is reviews, retail product feeds, or ads but that is quite different than how systems like GPT work today.

Ultimately running your own ChatGPT will be just as hard or harder as running your own Google.

Are you familiar with the expression "fight or flight"? They feel a need to flee, but there is nowhere to go.
The issue is mostly maintaining two diverging compilers as every feature needs to be implemented twice. Thus, by removing the C++ compiler the project gains from only needing to implement new features once and thus lowers the maintainance burden of keeping the two in sync.

It's not that they're too lazy to rewrite this in C but rather that it's impractical when there are still breaking features to be implemented.

Also the process is `zig -> wasm blob -> c -> zig` where they're not commiting C source code to the repository at all, it's just used as a stepping stone to compile the real compiler from the bootstrap compiler.
I'm definitely not saying someone couldn't write a better cron, or that it doesn't have warts. Still, put 1/10th of the budget towards cron that went towards this and I think you'd get something a lot more usable.
I would like to know what else is embedded in digital pictures, similar to the printer yellow dots, except it will be undetectable.
I think my point is, don't blame us for getting the nomenclature wrong, when it's clear that the crypto people were smearing the nomenclature around too like a cheap maple syrup, letting it stick to anything that looked "defi-ish"

Now only after FTX failed people are saying, "Oh that wasn't really defi, and you're being dishonest if you call it that."

Basically we're being gaslit after the fact.
WASM allows them to bootstrap Zig compiler on completely foreign systems that only have a C compiler. This solves the chicken-and-egg dilemma that occurs when one wants to use a language under development to develop the language itself.

It's not about code size or efficiency. They are talking about the ability to use the latest versions of Zig for further development of the Zig compiler. This improves and speeds up the compiler development cycle by removing the limitations imposed by the bootstrap process.
How is RTS dead? There are new ones coming out all the time, and there are studios such as Paradox that are exclusively on RTS games.
Probably a bit of both but yes the rate hikes have been especially hard on tech. I think it is also a reasonable question why Google needs to have two competing products that do the exact same thing.
both the focal length and the field of view are irrelevant, you know the angles between the stars so you can infer everything.
Coming from a smaller town (<30,000) I was pretty much taught this. I couldn't go a month without someone wishing I would move away and leave the town behind. I live in a bigger city now and I'm glad but it took effort not to feel ashamed of living in my home town for so long.

Most people in America are born and live in metro areas and I wonder if the same kind of mentality is taught to those people?
That's good to hear that's all it takes!

Yes, Bonjour name resolution, which Screen Sharing uses, can also run over AWDL, but of course it does not have to.

There was a bug in OS X Yosemite and older versions of iOS which caused any AWDL activity to severely increase network jitter and latency; this sounds like a regression.

> I’ve encountered that type of demeanor quite often, which is burying nonetheless-obvious and heaping contempt under “it was particularly enjoyable” smarm and a fake smile.

Or maybe it really was enjoyable for him to read someone else's point of view? If someone disagrees with you, down to the very core beliefs that serve as foundation of your world, I don't think there is much of a better way to try to handle the situation.
I'm not the parent commenter, but I will be honest -- I fail to understand the purpose of bootstrapping low-level languages. Like, if you just were to given a task to write a compiler, would you honestly choose Zig? No. Then why don't have the compiler be written in Haskell or whatever high-level language where writing code is actually productive and not error prone, since it is not a performance-critical application?

EDIT: since my performance critical sentence is getting misunderstood: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33914718
>And what if you want multiple timers, with different configurations between them (maybe one long running one with WakeSystem= and a shorter one without?).

Well, that's where you can write a regular timer or just add a dependency to your timer-service.

But also you're sort of getting to the territory of inventing your own scripting language on top of systemd at that point, if your needs are that complex just write a script.
The answer is based on the contents of the websites returned by the search engine + other some sources.
This just seems insane to me.

I purposefully graduated early from highschool (1 semester less and it only worked because of where my birthday was) to move 853 miles from where I grew up to where I currently live. My partner did a similar move (before we met).

When I talk to most of my friends it is a similar story.

I just can't imagine not wanting to explore a new area and have distance from your parents. I love my parents, we talk a couple times a week, but I don't need them physically close to me. (last couple years being the exception for obvious reasons).

Maybe this is because I am gay and I needed out of the south (as are many of my friends), I also wanted to move to an urban city like so many in my generation.

This just seems insane for me to think about.
Remote work for a lot of people simply does not work. It is not the interaction makes progress but the intensity of interactions makes progress. And for a large number of people remote communication does not give the necessary intensity.

In my opinion very few jobs should be posted as remote but adjusted to remote if that does not hurt productivity.
Yeah, the Mews street I live in we are all property owners. Only in the middle bit is city council property
Knowing the path to the log file isn't more complex than knowing the name of the systemd unit, but not needing to know the right set of flags to pass because the sane behavior is the default is _really_ nice. That said, I didn't know about `--boot` or `--since`, so maybe I'll hate journalctl a little less (also, I've only ever used systemd-based systems, so I don't think "it's what you grew up on" applies, at least in my case).
I don't get the first argument. Put the whole command in a shell script and be done with it. You can easily run it anytime you want to.

Same with the last - templated unit files. Add a parameter or more to the script and you're done.
When I set up a new box, the first thing I do is disable all sorts of systemd-* nonsense, keeping systemd as an initd service only (which it should be). Then I replace them with serious, battle-tested tools like ntp/chrony, unbound, etc...

It looks like systemd.timer will continue this practice ;) I'm expecting someone at Canonical/IBM/RH will be happy to put this as the default scheduler in the next distro release, marking it as a "significant improvement".
I'm sorry but this UI definitely gives me the vibes and engineer designed it and not somebody well versed in product design. There's so much going on here with clashing typography and elements that I don't even know where to look.

I am saying comparing a mobile only game to a MMORPG back when gamers were willing to pay to play MMOs is misleading. Which MMOs are making 14B in yearly revenue in today's entertainment market?

According to the article I linked Immortal generated roughly the same amount of revenue in 4 months as Raid Shadow Legends (the previous record holder) did in their best year. That is a domination of that gaming niche.

That's not "another explanation" that's the exact dynamic:

TCI, who do not actually run the business, are threatening the CEO (addressed to Sundar) that they will move their money if Google doesn't do what they say - namely cut costs etc...

Is it more likely that TCI investors know how better to run Google than Google does or that they don't care and are blindly seeking alpha with no care for the people that run it?
I'm not drawing equivalence between products here, but rather tempering trust in the opinions of investors. How much money was invested into FTX? How many renowned investors swore, and continue to swear, by that sham? Saying that "all these investors think it is good" is also just an appeal to authority.

The target market is developers, and developers are spooked out by this kind of thing. Seems risky.
I suspect that most people who would like more coworkers to come back into the office appreciate that they have very little say in the matter and should probably largely keep quiet about their preferences--and perhaps seek out somewhere where things are different if they care.

I suspect many have preferences but not strong enough ones to take imminent action.

Nice, the biggest achievement for a new programming language is met :D
I'm frequently on that receiving end of low-code implementations that have failed, and I'm not quite as fond of it as you. ;^)

The problem is reasoning. Often the low code limitations funnels the implementation into a contorted state, so by the time they've decide to give up what I get is frequently exceptionally difficult to comprehend. Usually I peek at it, try to get an idea, and then do what I would have done if assigned to task from the get-go - read (or make) a spec, and go from there. I'm doing some quick napkin calculations from the time tracking system, and the ratio is approximately 13/2 on the last 7 of these no-code to code tasks. What they attempt in no-code in 13 hours and fail I finish in, yes, 2. Given, these are not developers, and sometimes these actually come from the CEO (who does not track their time so they're not in that ratio), but mostly they're just managers and remote hires. And I've been developing software for 28 years now, so I have some capability. Also, these are mainly data related projects, so maybe other types of work would have more success.

No code will get better, I'm sure, but the problems we're solving actually are getting harder (it seems to me) and reasoning about them is the difficult part. I'm not sure how to no-code that.
Sure, but the reason you didn't lead with that, and also the reason you did this for a secretive aircraft and not a new campervan is clicks, no?

The integers don't have the same cardinality as the reals, full stop. It comes from the definition of real numbers, and if you don't accept it, then you're not talking about the same real numbers that everybody else is. What this person is actually saying is "I don't believe real numbers exist".

Okay, and? Does the number 4 really exist? Like, really exist? Who cares!? It's useful! Most mathematicians actually don't care whether something "exists" in some absolute-truth sense, and certainly not whether it physically exists in our universe or not. They use the word "exist" a lot, but in a slightly different way; the use it to mean something like "can this set of constraints ever be satisfied?"

All models are wrong, but some models are useful. Whether those models exist in any real sense is pointless philosophical masturbation.

You can't trust the client. You need to validate everything on the server in the context of the authenticated session. At that point, it doesn't really make sense for the client to be submitting data that will have to be looked up and verifed anyway.

A huge part of my job as a developer is organizing the business person’s thoughts for them, and filling in the non-happy-path 80% of the app that they don’t care about, but their users do.

And doing all that in a coherent way that’s ruthless about maintaining simplicity for as long as possible, including pushing back on business ideas that add marginal benefit but mushroom the complexity of the app.
Imagine if the Saudis grew wheat in the desert! Oh wait they tried that and even with all the capital in the world it wasn't competitive, because it turns out the desert is a horrible environment for growing wheat.

The less fortunate places of today weren't built for no reason, back when they were new there was money to be made to support them. Then economics shifted and there's less money that can be made in that location, so people/businesses move away. Expecting capable people to intentionally stunt their achievements to try and do the equivalent of growing wheat in the desert is just mythologizing places that once served an important economic purpose but no longer do. This notion that you'll never need to adapt to changing circumstances, that there's some sort of societal guarantee of growing old in the same community you grew up in, is incredibly entitled and fundamentally anti-American.
