The biggest failure of HyperCard was not integrating networking. Bill Atkinson has lamented that oversight. Indeed, the whole visual layer of the Internet might have taken a totally different path.

From one survivor of a near-certain-death scenario to another: glad that you’re still here with us to tell your story. No two experiences are alike, but don’t be surprised if it takes you a long while to process what happened. Good that you’re able to talk about it here; if you can, I encourage you to talk to your family about it, even if only to let them know you acknowledge it happened.

(Then again, feel free to ignore the unsolicited advice of an internet stranger, but if you say you nearly died, then you’re likely in shock to a degree. Maybe this sounds excessive, but consider professional support.)
While I agree books have bloat, spending 4 minutes to read a blog article once makes it more difficult for me to retain the information. Books typically discuss ideas (over multiple days of reading) which helps me retain their information better.

Do you have any advice on how to retain blog posts better? Re-read them everyday for a few days?

the usual suspects

- older population, surviving the most common disease that once killed millions of people at younger age

- pollution

- toxic substances (asbestos for example)

- radiations

- exposure to highly carcinogenic substances (nickel, cadmium, radon, vinyl chloride, benzidene, and benzene, etc.)

- DNA

Crystal Skull, for me, is really one of the most disappointing continuation of any series ever. It's even worse than the Star Wars prequels (and later on sequels), because those at least managed to set up interesting world building apart from being bad movies. It's no surprise that Lucas had a say in both of them.

Temple of Doom was nowhere near the quality of Raiders or Last Crusade, but it was still a good Indy movie. They should have never touched the franchise again after the trilogy. Harrison Ford is Indy. And Indy without his charisma & agility is just really plain…

Something I haven't seen discussed very widely: it feels like there's not only a balance needed in determine what to log vs what not to log, but also logging in a way that isn't a detriment to the readability of the code overall.

Over time I've actually found myself logging less just because having to sorta mentally elide logging lines added to the cognitive overhead of reading & understanding code.
Do you think it's something to do with the medium, rather than the content?

I am an avid book-collector and much prefer to pick up a technical manual and find guidance there, but at the same time my job demands fluency with online documentation, plus e.g. Stack Overflow, blog posts, etc.

Personally I like the dead-tree feel and heft of a book, and the fact it doesn't require a screen or battery. I can curl up with it and I don't have a bright square of light blasting into my retinas. I could annotate it (criminal!) if I wanted to, or certainly bookmark it. It has the same features as online material in that regard.

I tried the Amazon Fire(?) reader-thingy for fiction books and couldn't get on with it at all, despite the paper feel/look.

I happened to chat with HR when I did the opt-out. They claimed, which I didn't believe, that most employees actually benefit from it because they get streamlined approval for personal loans and mortgages.

If you want to give your work away for free, people still need to hear about it some way, which would be the marketing side of it.

I can relate to you. This is me currently. I ended up transitioning into a leadership position with a dev team as well, and I don't love it either. It's a lot of 1-on-1s and stakeholders. So many meetings.

I don't have any shares, but I just found a new job in a smaller shop as a dev. I know that's what I want to do, so I just went for it. It's slightly lower paying than my current job, but I know I'll be happier. Honestly, if I were you, I would ask them to hire a Manager and if that doesn't go, I would look elsewhere.
They used to host their own servers there, but it went the way of the cloud.
Certainly such a model is regressive, but it is in line with the actual costs of service. In my opinion, it's better to have a pricing model that reflects the actual costs of service, then an explicit subsidy to repair the regressivity issue, such as the Consumers Affordable Resource for Energy (CARE) Program in California.

Using usage as a proxy for value-received from the grid worked fine when there was a monopoly provider, but with distributed solar being a thing, we have to move off of the model, or we end up with an even more regressive system. As I noted before, we use these systems for water, gas, and other utilities, so we have methods for addressing their natural regressiveness.

Alternately, if you feel (and this is reasonable) that power should be a ubiquitous service provided to everyone, take over the grid, pay for maintenance and development of the grid with tax dollars, and bill only for generation/usage after a reasonable base allocation.
For me Pixar movies are great in this respect. Storytelling is there front and center. There is a book (Creativity Inc iirc?) that talks about Pixar history and their process, pretty incredible how many hits they were able to produce during their era and how consistent they were. Not sure if they produced anything lately though?
I meant having an opaque function inside your instruction handler. My assembly looks like crap if something doesn't get inlined. Because I have no way of achieving this I simply cannot use TCO. It runs fibonacci faster, but anything that uses memory is way worse because it pushes and pops a ton of registers on the instruction handler itself, and not the slow-path opaque function.

An instruction handler here being a dispatch function. It handles a single instruction.

Reading your post it says so under Limitations. Opaque calls trashes performance. I guess we agree, but then again I was just reading my assembly, so I had no reason to doubt myself.

Even if the forest is replanted and eventually stores the same amount of carbon as was released in burning the wood you end up behind. You release a bunch of carbon today and it takes decades for the new growth to recapture that. Plus you burn additional fuel for the harvest, processing, and shipping, which is never recaptured.

Burning and replanting forests is not carbon neutral. Not even close. It's an accounting gimmick that the EU uses to make themselves look good.
Despite the issue, I'm not convinced that Go doesn't do shallow fetches vs deep clones. Other issues (like Gentoo's issue with the proxy, I don't have a link handy sadly) point to fetches being done normally, not clones.
+1 for getting away from the screen. I've stopped buying eBooks for exactly this reason. A glass of wine or bourbon and a book with a soft lamp is a much better way to power down at the end of the day then doom scrolling or vegetating to Netflix.

It is a lonely thing though, so YMMV when considering your spouse or roommates.
Unfortunately you won't stop the tide with simple data practices. If they can't slurp up the the data automatically, they have an army of people making phone calls to gather employment data from other sources to add to their database.

We use them as a provider (unfortunately), and when they don't have the data on hand we have to handle cases where it can take a few days for them to call the business and confirm employment directly with someone who works there. At that point, I don't think where you work has a reasonable expectation of privacy since you walk there, probably put it on your LinkedIn, talk about it with friends/family, etc.
> I don't know why I thought that linking a scientific paper reporting accurately all the data would be helpful to the discussion.

Right, but you cherry-picked the most uninformative statistic possible out of the whole thing to make it sound like smoking isn't a major factor.

These ones would have painted a different picture:

> In a study performed in the United States, roughly 19 percent of women with lung cancer were non-smokers, and only 9 percent of men with lung cancer were non-smokers.13 As this data has shown, lung cancer in non-smokers tends to be more common in females

> Importantly, there is also an increased risk for those non-smokers that have a spouse that is a smoker. In a meta-analysis that included 55 studies, it was found that women who were married to a smoker had a 27% increase in risk of lung cancer.

So a pretty good chunk of those non-smoker cancer cases are caused by smoking, it's just someone else's. And that 27% is just spouses who smoke, another chunk of that will be waitstaff with workplace smoke exposure (an occupation which skews female) since restaurants were one of the last public places people where kept smoking all the time. Indoor smoking bans will reduce those cases, but we're a long way yet from seeing the long terms effects of that.

> they are absolutely not!

I'm aware. As I said in my comment, that was a hypothetical scenario with made up numbers to illustrate how the 50% statistic on its own could give you the wrong impression of the safety of smoking.
It seems like they're getting tons of bandwidth paid by the war chest if they don't care about this waste at all.

> RPC is a dumb protocol

RPC is a broad concept, even farther from a protocol than REST, which is an architectural style.

> because it tries to abstract away the necessary aspects of "remote" as if they don't exist.

Generally, it does not. There are some languages/frameworks/other technologies that have been promoted on the basis of transparent RPC or distribution across machines, but that’s not the normal case of RPC.

> REST APIs done correctly are great because they expose the possibility of network failures and partitions, allow for idempotency (GET doesn't change stuff), caching and all of the other things that the architectural style offers.

More accurately HTTP has all that, and REST layered over HTTP gets it for free from HTTP, while many RPC approaches (though this is not inherent on “RPC”) over HTTP would, e.g., tunnel all actions over POST and reinvent distinctions between safe/idempotent/neither operations if handled at all, within the RPC protocol, and would require specialized caching mechanism for things that are cachable, not HTTP caches. Or, worse, do the same thing but tunnel over GET.
Why? Google has quite a reputation for wrongfully banning people from things. This doesn't seem unusual for them at all.

I consume information in whatever information it's available and whatever way I prefer at any given time. Even a Twitter thread can be a valuable source of information. I'm not going to ignore it just because it's Twitter. Some things I'm only able to find in books. Other things are great as articles because you don't need a book to explain a single concept. Even a book is just a whole made of chapters and indices and some chapters are more useful than others. I haven't read a non-fiction book cover-to-cover in years (or ever?). Sometimes a Reddit post is valuable because of all the information in the comments (eg. "the real TIL is always in the comments"). Sometimes I'll read a handful of notes from somebody's knowledge database and that's all I need. Sometimes I'll read all of them.

I can't imagine limiting myself to a single type of textual presentation.

if it was actually using negatives during the transfer, it isn't necessarily fake HDR. the dynamic range of film is incredible. with a good colorist, you can grade something to have that HDR feel even if it wasn't specifically shot as such. yes, some knobs/sliders might get pushed to max, but not in the disparaging manner in which you mean.

even in cameras shooting RAW, you can push the exposure higher knowing that highlight recovery is possible much more than shadow recovery. so you "expose-to-the-right" to allow for much more shadow exposure while pushing your highlights. in post, you can then grade/develop how you like.

but yes, i'm tired of the HDR-for-HDR-sake post-apocalyptic looks as well

Question...why no mention of "change" logs? I'm curious as to why I don't see change logs mentioned often as an important overlay to general system logging.

I liken errors and debugs all related to heart beat and breathing rate but without information like "climbing stairs" or "changed medication", it may be hard to understand context or understand why new errors are being seen. The first question I would expect to ask when seeing logged issues, is what has changed recently that could be related to the new errors. Curious to hear thoughts on this?

I actually built software/startup related to the logging of changes (architecture change/software change/server restarts) but just didn't get traction and curious to know why it's not more interesting to people.

From when I used it, Maya was perfectly fine at doing polygons just as well as 3D Studio Max. It was just a more expensive. That being said Maya didn't come out until 1998 so all the early PS1 games I know mostly used 3D Studio Max. One exception that is well documented is Crash Bandicoot which had an art pipeline using the predecessor to Maya, Alias PowerAnimator running on SGI IRIX workstations with all custom written tools. They even used PowerAnimator to make the levels - not just the character animations.
