> But to say that Paw Patrol is a problem because it has a police dog in it and that he helps people is equivalent to saying that Daniel Tiger is anti-Democracy because it has a Royal Family.

Any positive portrayal of police in US media is problematic. Teaching children to trust the police is only going to get some of them jailed on fabricated evidence or killed, especially if they aren't white and affluent.

edit: Ok, apparently Paw Patrol is Canadian, so mea culpa. I guess the police are actually civil servants there. It's still a problem when shown to US children.

idk if $2000 would get you a worthwhile MacBook, unless it's yours to keep. If it's yours to keep than definitely spend it to subsidize your own macbook pro, if you don't have a really good chair or really good monitor. If you like coffee, you could use it on an incredibly good grinder.
Does Daniel Tiger portray a royal family as benevolent, and a democratically elected leader as incompetent? If so, it sounds like it's anti-democracy. Perhaps unintentionally so, but perpetuating those mythologies nonetheless.

The number one thing I've learned from being laid off was never to trust your employer. Trust people, if they've shown to be trustworthy, but never, ever trust a company.

A company is not family, they're not your friend, and the perceived loyalty you think you've "earned" doesn't mean a thing if layoffs are coming.

Treat your employment as a business arrangement. You get a paycheck in exchange for labor. Nothing less, nothing more.

What regional dialect of English are you using that the word "pa" is pronounced any differently? To my West Coast / NorCal ears, urying to use a stressed, second-a-in-"banana" pronunciation, is really weird, as is schwaing it to the point of "uh". The unstressed-short a (the other two 'a's in 'banana') sounds the best, and is perfectly reasonable to describe phonetically as "aw".

Do you want identification of famous people within a photo or to find photos of a famous person given a known photo of them ?

They are somewhat intertwined though. If police can feed anyone to the DA, and the DA can then use a variety of sketchy tactics (including junk science, but mostly other stuff) to punish them, then it all works. If it kept resulting in cases that get thrown out, the feedback loop would slow it down some.
If white people should support immigration because it is good for white people than doesn’t than mean you are making an argument that is racist and white supremacist? Because usually Europeans who oppose non-European immigration are the ones called racist and white supremacist. Why is it ok to support immigration by highlighting the ways it is good for white people but bad to oppose it by highlighting the ways it is bad for white people?
Three Body Problem's sequel, The Dark Forest, is one of the most mindblowing books I've ever read. When they go over the Dark Forest theory, I thought, wow, the author came up with a novel solution to Fermi's paradox, after all this time.
I'll have to disagree. I don't think I'd want that in most cases.

It's unclear what general problem it solves. If the database row is actually corrupted, I want the query to fail violently, and the database to fail all operations around it to avoid further corruption. If I really need to handle it, I'll handle it in my app layer.

If it's not, I don't want it to be set to some invalid state. I don't want every piece of code to need to deal with this invalid state that shouldn't be allowed to begin with. I'd rather gate it at the door and stop it from getting in there in the first place.

If you use a nullable timestamp as a boolean, this is fine; there's only two states w.r.t. set or not: NULL or not NULL, from the SQL perspective. How this is encoded in your language and tools of choice depends. If there's some database value not encodable to your language's native types, the db connector will probably decide what to do: truncate data, fail the whole query, use a type with additional entropy (like Go's NullString, for example.) In no way do I want there to be an error state for that field alone. If I did, though, for example because I need to handle partial data as an application concern, I'd want union typing. In that case you could have Error/Unset/Timestamp just fine. I don't believe SQL has this sort of union type natively, but it can be represented in many programming languages intuitively (like unsafely as a union in C, safely as an enum in Rust, safely as a discriminated union in TypeScript, and mostly safely in Go abusing interfaces.) However, that is only something I want to do if my application specifically needs it. Otherwise? Data that goes into the database must meet the constraints first.

You claim the volume is large but you have nothing to support that claim. I don't
think that's true, based on the study I linked. If an adult can learn a language
in a similar amount of time as a child. Then by definition both the child and
adult have the same time (which you can use as a direct proxy) for learning
anything else.

I don't use a specific utility function. Because it doesn't matter what utility
function you use. Pursuing maximizing any utility function for the maximum amount
of time and effort will in general lead the maximum return if you go about it correctly.

I think the exercise of saying let's legitimately try to build something vs buy, is a great place to start. It will help determine what you need in an off the shelf solution, while also serving as a useful pricing target. If the buy solution is more than maintenance and development, then it makes sense to build yourself and avoid vendor lock-in and allow for bespoke flexibility. I've experienced both situations, some rules of thumb to go by:

1. is this service or product similar to what your company creates, or would you have to create an entirely new business unit to develop and support it

2. how complex would it be to integrate the off the shelf solution into your current system. if it's the same as building on your own, then why pay for it

3. is there competition in the market for the buy solution so pricing and innovation are competitive.

4. who is this company selling this product or service, what is their track record, do you service as just their financier and guinea pig testers

> Was the food adequate?

In Federal the food is fine. All of the prisons in the entire country follow the same basic meal schedule, the highlights of which are usually every Wednesday is hamburger day and every Thursday is chicken day where each inmate gets a large baked chicken breast. I was told by almost every inmate that had ever been to State facilities that the food there is virtually inedible while they were happily scarfing down lunch.

> How was the prison library?

The facility I was at had a different library than what most people think of when they see prison in the movies. There was no big room with large isles of books or any tables to sit at while reading. It was a very small room where inmates could enter and browse the various catalogs (mostly in binders) and then ask the inmate working as the librarian to rent a book. Access to books was simple and there was a decent selection. Many books were more readily available if they were more popular since inmates often leave their books with the library when they are released. I found something on most every subject I was interested as long as it didn't get too niche and we even had a decent selection of Dungeons & Dragons books ranging back to 2E.

> What did you learn from the experience?

I learned that literally 85% of people are there for drug related crimes. Most "repeat offenders" are there because they had access to a firearm while on supervision. The result is that if you ask another inmate why they are there, almost every time you literally just get the sentence "drugs and guns" which is a catch-all statement inmates use because their story isn't interesting and just involves the usual "sold drugs, got caught eventually" stuff.

I learned that in Southern California (where many inmates originate) their legal system is so taxed that some of these offenders for drug crimes spent a total of 45 minutes with their court appointed public defender before being sentenced to an average of 7 years in prison. Some of them didn't even know the actual charges they ended up pleading guilty to. To be clear: they did sell drugs, and they are guilty of breaking the law - but they were also completely denied an adequate defense and in many cases English isn't their first language. Contrast that with my case and the dozens of hours I spent with my team of (public defense) lawyers and it seems unfair. Legally they either deem a case "complex" or not and mine was considered complex, whereas the drug offenders usually just get thrown to the least experienced public defenders most of which see no point in arguing against their potential future boss or judges they have to interact with daily to advocate for a client. (My public defenders were amazing, but I'm not from Southern California)

After trying rust only for a few hours i really wonder how come this language remain the most loved one on surveys. From the outside it looks like a niche language you'd only use for super constrained or critical environments.

Take backend dev for example: unless you're trying to squeeze the last drop of performance from your CPU, most concurrency issues are usually dealt with at the middleware level (DB, Queue, Nginx, etc), and most performance issues are usually I/O related.

I'm currently evaluating developing a cross-platform mobile native library using Rust, but i really don't see myself inflicting the pain of that language to the rest of my team.

Or maybe it's just a reflection on how active the community is ?

edit: i realize a lot of people are probably still coding in C because they have no other choice, and for them it's probably a good idea to switch. However, for all the rest i really don't see the point.

I still mostly stick to Nix, but I highly recommend Pkgsrc over Homebrew/Linuxbrew. It plays nice with other package managers and is generally well-behaved. Not a bad escape hatch for Nix if you feel like you need one.

Our team has pipelines that builds, runs, and tests our code in containers. We like to approximate this locally with docker compose. This helps eliminate things like forgetting to update pyproject.toml. Additionally, since the pipeline uses an internal artifactory/harbor (no external Internet), the containers we use have environment variables using the internal resources.

> Using Porter you don't need to know anything about Supervisor, systemd [...]

Using systemd you don't need to know anything about Porter.

> One advantage might be the ease of use. [...] Porter abstracts away these things so you only have to write a simple .yml file.

Is the systemd unit file really that much more complex? The example `mpd` service file might take more lines than the equivalent Porter .yml snippet, but the DOS/Windows 3-era ".ini" file format isn't exactly rocket surgery, and there's only one kinda weird bit of boilerplate ("WantedBy=default.target") that isn't immediately obvious why it's there. Other than that, the systemd config for a simple service is, well, simple. (At least, it looks that way to me.)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd/User#Example

Yeah, there's a lot of complexity you can add with systemd units, but only if you have complex use-cases that need it. As far as I can tell, the only alternative to "Yeah, there's a config option for that, but it can take a bit of reading to find out its name" is "No, you can't do that, sorry".
