What makes that super weird for me is the inheritance by gender.

I get reparations, e.g. for enslaving people. In its simplest form, you break it down to "should have been paid instead" and make that a claim that can be inherited. There are arguments about collective guilt and claims against collectives etc, but that's a second step.

But women aren't an ethnic group. Children are pretty much a 50/50 split between male and female. Those claims (for reparations, and extra privileges because other women elsewhere in a different century were disadvantaged) are very different, and make no sense to me, at all.
There was no cheaper Tesla option 10 years ago when I bought my car so I couldn’t afford it. Now I drive very little so even a $30K car would be too expensive even if I save on gas money. I feel everything about EVs will get better in the next few years so I am holding out as long as possible.
Because I work at a different car company, and get a free-ish (no monthly payment, but still have to pay taxes/fees/registration) lease as a staff engineer.

Also, having worked at a software company (Amazon) and now a car company, I don't want a car made by a software company.
So classic german-canadian spirit: I will do it perfectly ... tomorrow.
I've been thinking for a while about how to architecture systems and I wonder if perhaps we could generalize something like Fuchsia's device driver stack design [1] for arbitrary systems and eliminate this monolithic vs microservice applications debate altogether.

In Fuchsia, the device driver stack can be roughly split into three layers:

* Drivers, which are components (~ libraries with added metadata) that both ingest and expose capabilities,

* A capability-oriented IPC layer that works both inside and across processes,

* Driver hosts, which are processes that host driver instances.

The system then has the mechanism to realize a device driver graph by creating device driver instances and connecting them together through the IPC layer. What is interesting however is that there's also a policy that describes how the system should create boundaries between device driver instances [2].

For example, the system could have a policy where everything is instantiated inside the same driver host to maximize performance by eliminating inter-process communication and context switches, or where every device driver is instantiated into its own dedicated driver host to increase security through process isolation, or some middle ground compromise depending on security vs performance concerns.

For me, it feels like the Docker-like containerization paradigm is essentially an extension of good old user processes and IPC that stops at the process boundary, without any concern about what's going on inside it. It's like stacking premade Lego sets together into an application. What if we could start from raw Lego bricks instead and let an external policy dictate how to assemble them at run-time into a monolithic application running on a single server, micro-services distributed across the world or whatever hybrid architecture we want, with these bricks being none the wiser?

Heck, if we decomposed operating systems into those bricks, we could even imagine policies that would also enable composing from the ground up, with applications sitting on top of unikernels, microkernels or whatever hybrid we desire...

Square Enix is on an epic journey of discovery hard https://kotaku.com/nft-market-collapse-square-enix-ubisoft-s... They sold Tomb Raider and Three Studios to fund this garbage :o
It is not banned because it’s expensive, it’s banned because of political reasons. Sweden are great with large scale mining.
Based on what you replied to, I thought you were going to say that Twitter Blue Plus allows you to suppress posts written about your company
Didn't downvote you, but this is essentially why I have no desire to build anything for programmers - unless I happen to need it for myself, then I casually open source it (rarely actively maintained as soon as I stop needing it).

I go to _fantastic_ lengths to not pay for software, to mostly use software I could theoretically contribute to, or even to not have to deal with learning new tools. I even built my own accounting system (based on Ledger though).

We're an insanely tough crowd to monetise, I suppose. At least some of us. Meanwhile, prosumer software in other areas seems to be doing quite well, happy users, decent income for the developers and all.
I got quite frustrated by how much native C++ programs are slow/closed to any kind of introspection/debugging so this year I will be attempting to build a live object inspector/debugger for C++ programs/games, independent of the game engine you are using. I have currently lots of ideas on features I want to build but at least for me it's an interesting challenge to tackle. The basic idea right now is to allow to add small changes to your code live without recompiling the whole thing and I aim for instantaneous compilation times, so adding a print() does not take >=5 seconds to compile. Currently I achieve this by using a scripting language that is exposed to classes/functions/variables in your codebase but I may change the approach later if I find a better solution.

I currently have a prototype but nothing that could be used in production yet: https://donadigo.com/d0/
The comments answers that it is ready.

I can still buy 110 octane leaded racing gas at the pump in Washington State, USA. It's illegal to dispense into a vehicle, you have to pump it into a jerrycan.

Not really, I come from a similar country. If you’re ambitious – move to the US or UK, if you want balanced lifestyle – stay and don’t work too hard.
I generally think you're pretty right on. "... we can only transition and hope others follow" is basically the right idea, the right outlook.

There is a bit more bias towards audience size as the reason this is hard than I'm comfortable with though. Twitter as a medium is, in my controversial opinion, almost always a better medium than a blog.

There's a ton of counter-opinions, but I quite enjoy seeing a thread of toots, that decompose an idea into different segments. Having the tree of comments shooting off the thread adds context & shows which areas are high engagement, contested or loved, and which don't excite as much. Being able to cite specific pieces is better than most blogs permits. The granularity of threads is better than wall of texts, for me, and enables more interesting interactions. It's a richer online medium, and in my view, that's cool.

I hope over time we can start to see ActivityPub/Mastadon start to allow blogging like things that also boast more interactive capabilities than traditional blogs. Blog posts that are shareable on standards-based social media protocols, where commenting is also standards-based social media protocols, would be a huge lift, would allow for some of the memetic virality that has allowed the social media Walled Gardens to team with activity.

Making things based on standard protocols also allows for a choice of clients. Such that we can tackle the "blogs aren't realtime" challenge (which also talks about for example comments, another handled via our existing protocols!), https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34231569

Understanding some of the genetic makeup of Twitter & social media & trying to recapture some of the capabilities we had is important in transitioning away. I worry that "start a fucking blog", while spirited & heart-in-the-right-place, suggests a lesser path, a path that isn't as ambitious as is mandatory for survival & thriving.
Everyday you learn something new. A long read but truly eye-opening.

Big thanks to the author for the courage to share this.
Wow! I have seen this exact conversation style. Is there a name for it? What is it intended to achieve?

I've seen it in religious forums primarily. At first I figured they were just dicks but then I saw the behaviour duplicated. So there's some kind of organization there.
Android can do that with a few more steps: take a screenshot, tap Google lens (can do this on the screenshot popup UI, without leaving the current app), and then the text tab.
I downvoted the comment because the article explicitly mentioned speed, which VS Code and Clion both struggle with. Either the gp didn't read TFA or didn't have experience with the kinds of code bases it discussed.
Headline should read "Tesla Passengers"; even the original source mentions that it was a Tesla..
Microservices, by definition, do not share a DB. If they do then you just have multiple processes in the same larger service.
I can understand that, but the solution can never be privatize the police - that is just giving up and formalizing the unfairness.
I don't get enough sex for fucking blog to be worthwhile.
Could you elaborate on that?

Isn't it true that encode always means text -> bytes and decode always means bytes -> text?
They did annex much of Ukraine, although have not been able to hold on to the annexed regions. Notably, they lost Kherson in November.

However, this was probably a consolation prize after their decapitation strike failed, and may not have been their original plan. Russian ultra-nationalists do play up a notion of 'Novorossiya' which would include everything from Odessa to Kharkiv, however; this by now is utterly unrealistic, but Russia attempted to take both Odessa and Kharkiv early in the war. With the former, they were stopped at Mykolaiv, and with the latter they stopped short of managing to take the city itself.

They also lost the parts of Kharkiv oblast (which they did not annex) they had occupied around September or so. This opens them up to counteroffensives in Luhansk oblast (which they annexed), specifically around Kreminna (where there is ongoing fighting and a reported Russian withdrawal) and Svatove.
Works for me, no repro, not an issue, right?

The post specifically mentions which one ISP is doing the blocking. If you're not using them, then it likely wouldn't affect you... until your ISP also starts following the order.

If anything, your comment is trying to heavily downplay what is happening.
The Federal Canadian government used to aid the construction of tons of housing, both market and non-market all through the 60s and 70s. It ended with the austerity budgets in 1993 of the Liberals under Jean Chretien, at which point the Federal government pretty much entirely got out of housing and left it to the provinces.

Provinces didn't fill in the gaps the same way. Shrugged their shoulders and mostly downloaded the problem to municipalities.

Municipalities didn't have any sort of revenue generating capacity to build social housing at all, nor did they have the ability to incentivize market housing, so only a limited amount of very profitable market housing gets built.
Came in expecting a tale about the actual infrastructure, i.e. hardware and software and probably something about OS/2. Came out with a lot more info about payment "rails" and fees and stuff that makes me glad I'm in software development and not finance.
Psychological problems are not comparable to addiction and death, particularly as our current resarch seems to show them solving more problems than they cause.

There are always companies that will try to make bank in an emerging market, but the details are different than an entrenched company using their power like in the opioid crisis.
I am also a regular user of mushrooms these days. My usage of them is definitely different from when I was younger - when I got ahold of them I would always trip pretty heavily and had a blast with them. As you get older, heavy trips just don't seem to be as enjoyable. Too much shit going on in adults lives I think, too many things to think about and it's harder to let go and enjoy the trip. Nowadays, I strictly microdose with them. To make this more streamlined, I will take a whole batch of mushrooms and pulse them into a powder with a coffee grinder, then fill up large capsules with them. This has the benefit of making each pill about as uniformly dosed as possible as long as you fill the capsules with the same amount. With these, you can really dose it the way you want. 1-2 capsules is usually great for a nice microdose. It will even give me energy similar to several cups of coffee, doesn't affect my cognitive ability at work at all, and the afterglow as you said is great.

As far as my personal anecdotal experience, if you can get Steel Magnolias that's the way to go. Penis Envy's are OK too.
Fwiw I'd say ruby would be similar to python, but without the semantically significant whitespace.

There's also lisps, like racket, that might be worth trying?
What do you mean blown out of proportion? OP has mentioned that it's a partial block and shared a source showing multiple people facing the same issue.
My experience of being the old guy in the team (older also than the manager) was that the young whippersnappers[0] drive new tech adoption regardless of the views of the old fart; the manager waves it through to keep the young-un's happy, and the old fart doesn't find out until it's a fait accompli.

My experience was also that the young manager was very suspicious of the old fart. I've never had any problem working for managers younger than me; but some young managers don't know what to make of a team member that knows more than they do.

[0] No insult intended; almost everything I learned after the first 10 years, I learned from people younger than me.
NetBeans switched to FlatLaf, and looks pretty good.

As I understand it, IDEA has done a lot of "Swing Work". I don't know if it's just augmenting existing or creating a bunch of new controls or if they delved deeper. It's just my understanding that IDEA is Swing, but not as we know it. I could be wrong.

NetBeans is pretty much pure Swing.
Where would you go to 'see the future of computing' today?
Xerox did not 'allow' their monopoly on copiers to expire. They regularly filed large numbers of patents and engaged in monopolistic commercial practices in an attempt to lock up one or more elements of the supply chain. The FTC then forced them into a consent decree in the 1970s that required them to license the patent portfolio at a reasonable royalty fee. This allowed the Japanese market entrants to compete and therefore innovate for the benefit of the consumer.

Edit: arguably, because Xerox did not have to compete with the Japanese until legal actions were taken, they were NOT actually on their toes and lost ground rapidly once the market was opened. Had they been forced to compete by the late 1960s instead of mid 1970s, they may have been in a better position to sustain themselves against foreign competitors.
While I agree it definitely needs some buttons for things, a counterpoint to that is other car makers have gone WAY too far with buttons and dials. I mean look at this hideous Macan design: https://di-uploads-pod17.dealerinspire.com/porschewoodlandhi... . Every button looks and feels the same. You have to look down to find the button you want. There are something like 30 buttons there.

I also hated my Audi. The display is filled with garbage I don't care about. I do not care in the slightest about my engine RPM and yet it takes up almost half of the display. But that is just visual. A lot of the physical buttons still felt the same and were next to each other so you had to look down to find it and change something. Most people sitting in the car couldn't figure it out, but had little trouble figuring out the Tesla display

Most of the time I prefer the touch screen on our Model Y but there are some things that BADLY need a physical controls:

* Defrost/defog/AC

* Wipers (the Auto mode is hilariously terrible)

* The god damn glove box

* The back seat lights (I have kids and need to look back there often)
Lol. I’ll encode it a bit next time. 1312
> at which point you shouldn't use any cloud services

You may be on to something there.

Cloud services exist first and foremost to further skew the playingfield in the direction of the larger parties because the economies of scale they create will allow them to compete with you in legal ways that you will find hard to match. That is the reason why these large companies are willing to rent out their data centers to you: you are essentially allowing them to sell you value added bits whilst reducing their own marginal costs in the process. Double win for them.

The fact that they could do even worse doesn't matter much absent proof. But for Facebook I'll make an exception: that company is rotten to the core in a way that not much else is and I highly doubt that there is a barrier low enough that they wouldn't crawl under it.
That is not true. Seismic monitoring show that the explosions were equivalent to several hundred kilograms of explosives. With that much explosives there was no need to remove the concrete. The "concrete removing CIA robots" narrative is only pushed by Russian propaganda accounts.
>American society doesn’t know how to use low skilled men

What's the solution though? I can think of 3:

1) Bullshit jobs (i.e. fake jobs or real jobs that exist only to support fake jobs. This is the current answer)

2) Universal Basic Income - Doesn't solve the problem of giving people meaningful work, but gives them some freedom to discover/create their own solutions

3) Artificially making life more difficult - For example, banning furniture companies that are too good at their job. Want new furniture? Here are some tools, go and make it. Maybe find some friends to help you with it too. This solution would solve the problem, but it would be extremely unpopular and would likely need to be enforced globally, or people would just go to a place where they can buy furniture cheaply.

First solution will likely continue to be the most popular one. I hope the second solution continues to gain popularity, maybe not directly as UBI, but something similar. Third solution is extremely unlikely, it's more of a thought experiment to realize how solving real problems gives us meaning and creates bonds among people. Kaczynski writes about this when he writes about three groups of human drives.
The best experience I've had with modular code in the java space was osgi. Very cool to be able to upload a new jar and have it start working just like that.
Microservices and eda... not really a fan. Yes you can release faster but operationalizing is a massive nightmare to me. Of course one size doesn't fit all but I'm pretty convinced this is only a popular solution for now.
Medically speaking, what did you expect a pregnancy doctor to tell someone who wasn't pregnant?
Governments already fund much of the basic science research needed to find new drugs. That isn't the issue. The real funding issue is with stage 3 clinical trials, which now often cost on the order of $1B each.

In theory we could nationalize the whole industry and have the government run all clinical trials. So the decisions on which drugs to develop would then be based on lobbying and campaign contributions. Would that produce better outcomes than what we're getting now? The government has a poor track record on picking winners.
> DoT does help even if it can be trivially blocked (more than one way to do so, but blocking TCP on port 853 would do the trick)...

Indeed, and this is exactly why DoH is better than DoT.

> DoT cannot help bypass SNI-based censorship (unless apps implement domain-fronting).

TLS ECH will. I can't wait for it to become mainstream.
And many among the Average Joes will not measure up to this ideal man of science and art. In truth you'll see that I'm not advocating for the rights of as-of-yet non-sapient computer programs, but to think of what this means about people.

If we're setting the bar of personhood or dignity to being exceptional researchers and engineers, it doesn't bode well for the masses that aren't and won't be. Maybe this will result in a society of leisure where everyone can be that! I wouldn't bet on it, there's already more PhDs in the sciences and humanities than society can fit, and humans may just not work that way.

You're already dismissing concerns about the welfare of the merely average, for being unfit when competing with the Machine Learning models we may have in the near future.
