Who's upstream?

Open source project and publicly accessible upstream? Yep. They're likely MIT licensed in accordance with the CLA.

Internal company copy of an MIT project? Unlikely unless legal says they are.

If the organization that I worked for made an internal copy of Influxdb ( https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb ), my contributions to the private and internally hosted copy are not inherently MIT licensed too and furthermore don't need to be redistributed.

If those changes were submitted upstream to the influxdata/influxdb repo, and I signed the CLA with them - then yes they would be.

What's more, if I left the organization, then I don't necessarily have a right to the contributions that I made to the private and internally hosted copy's codebase.
Haha, we were getting stupid sedentary beforehand.
There's a middle ground.

We write to communicate, but the way we write can communicate something as well. Style, word choice, punctuation also say something to the reader.

Reducing language to the lowest common denominator risks losing complex thoughts that are best communicated in complex language.

At the end of the day, know your audience. Are you communicating something to the largest possible group of people or people interested in a niche topic that you're passionate about?
>When bailed out banks paid bonuses it was understandably unpopular, but there was a certain logic that retaining talent optimized performance of the remaining bank, and therefore it was ultimately in the interest of taxpayers.

I don't think optimizing the performance of banks the create trillions of debt and were bailed out trillions of dollars is "in the interest of taxpayers".
Starting with "That's nice" is extremely flippant and is an immediate turn off to any subsequent statement. A stronger opening to discredit the [..] proposal would be to take the closing quote "We've been doing that with D for over 20 years" and point out that storing the length of an array of a certain type is a specialization to arrays of dependent typing that has been around since Howard and de Bruijn extended lambda calculus to match predicate logic by creating types for dependent functions and pairs. Each axis of the lambda cube is another source of nondeterminism that has to be reasoned with and languages that explicitly exclude said functionality for simplicity can point to as justification for such restrictions.
Perspective from someone who maintains Debian packages in the community repo here:

Package maintenance is time consuming and difficult. It requires a lot of volunteer work. Individual maintainers are overworked and unpaid. Packaging software often requires managing complex dependencies, writing documentation, developing packaging toolchains, and patching software.

Furthermore, stable release of a particular software version is even more of a challenge for package maintainers. Often upstream FOSS maintains only patch HEAD and release a new version. The responsibility of backporting changes to previous versions is left to package maintainers. To provide secure versions of old software, you're asking maintainers to have intimate familiarity with the OSS code bases and follow the dev process etc.

If I had community supported software exposed to the internet, I would be very concerned with the current state of things. I would want to ensure that individuals are invested with maintaining this software in a full-time capacity. It is important that "main" receives free Updates. Ubuntu Pro seems like it enhances the OSS ecosystem. As an personal user, you can get a free subscription courtesy of Canonical.

It is important to remember that as the end user, you are choosing to enable the community repo. Without Canonical, you wouldn't even know this version of the software is vulnerable.

What's "urban Chicago"? The loop? Kids do not play on the street in the loop. This is what the loop looks like:

Most of Chicago doesn't look like the loop. It's a big city.

The University of Chicago is in Hyde Park, 10 minutes south of the loop. It's one of the safest neighborhoods in the city. This is what Hyde Park looks like:

Very nice! I wish they would have copied Intel's moving the power switch to the front as the top switch is a falling book reboot waiting to happen. (I've got 1/2 dozen servers in this form factor doing different things and all but one have front facing power switches.

The psuedo-intellectualism is more than just a veneer, I'm afraid, it's the real tooth of many of these pieces.

Soul sucking job sucks, but if it also makes you a millionaire, then I think feeling oppressed is not entirely earned by your reality. You can always take you million and go on a spiritual quest in Himalayas for next 10 years. Somebody who earns the median wage in the US - which is a lot of people - may not have this option. So I don't think framing it in these terms makes much sense.

> I'll be forced into the "shit pay plus 2 hour commute per day, sit for nine hours in a tiny cubicle"

That's not exactly how jobs in Bay Area at least look. I mean 2 hrs commute can happen, if you live in a cheap place and not in walk distance from Google campus, but the pay likely would be not "shit" at all, especially for somebody who worked at good salary in Google.

> make an actual argument for why I should be gung-ho happy about about the future of work reverting back to being shitty,

That's it, from the point of view of about 99.9999% of Earth population, it will still be dream come true. From the point of somebody who has been living in the paradise, they will be living in a bit less luxurious paradise, and that would, I agree, sting and be very distressing. I mean, it is natural for people to strive for perfection, and for improvement of their own conditions. If you are hungry, you want to be sated. If you are never hungry, you want tasty food. If you have tasty food, you want it prepared specially well, be of appropriate spiciness, be healthy, have variety, maybe get some exotic foods from foreign lands, or authentic food from specific region, or prepared in some special ways by uniquely creative cooks. There's always something that can be better. Or, as it happens, worse. But if somebody who had access to Michelin three-stars restaurants, now has to eat in star-less ones, he shouldn't complain he is dying of hunger. His soul may be distressed, but it's not distressed in the same way as would be if he was actually hungry. Yes, there are levels, and yes, understanding them is good.

> "Someone else had it shittier" does nothing for me.

Maybe that's why somebody else has to tell it. As they say, you can't tickle yourself. So maybe you realize this point, and maybe realize that the suffering that you are feeling may be caused by framing, and also cured by framing too.

> That they are telling the AI to be concise is funny since they don't have a way to explicitly program it to do that besides just asking nicely.

Instead of crafting SQL injections, hackers will try to outwit LLM’s with logical contradictions like in old science fiction films. It’s funny but also a systemic problem with this technology. No amount of filters or safeguards can fully contain the range of expressiveness available in an entire language.
We can and regularly do invent compound words in English too. We just write them with spaces between each word. As far as I know, this is just a minor difference in orthography with little effect on the ability to create (even arbitrarily long) compounds.
Amtrak also includes State subsidies as 'revenue'. They also don't count depreciation. They then want 45Bn or some such enormous figure for maintenance from the Feds.

First rule of usenet! do you want it to end up like zlib?
Not having a long term plan for how the company needs to evolve to respond to changing customer needs and market trends.

Many companies have a difficult time coming up with a 6 month roadmap, and often if they do it’s so porous that new priorities will constantly change that roadmap so the things you wanted to get done simply don’t.

Visionary companies have an outlook well into the future because they not only understand what their customer needs are today and how they can make money by providing that value, but also know how they can leapfrog competition by innovating in the long term in their respective industries. Apple is a great example of a company that has done this.

Management styles, leadership etc come and go, they can be trained, but often a company that lacks focus and “here’s where we’re going to be in x years” is going to feel pains show up in the organization in different ways (people leaving, leadership changes, demoralizing culture, lack of talent, lack of care and passion from employees, etc)

You need someone who gives a shit with the power to spend money. That's pretty much it. Every single year, a company costs more to operate than it did the year before. Every piece of software you buy costs more over time. Same thing with hardware. Same thing with leases. Same thing with desks, chairs, trash cans, pencils, paper towels, and on and on. Yet I've watched many companies try to implement a "flat" budget, meaning no additional spend compared to the year before. Works fine if you've got room to cut, but do that over a long enough period of time (really not that long, two or three years max), and you'll end up with a situation where critical infrastructure is running on hardware that's so old it wouldn't survive a reboot or a gentle move from one rack to another. You can have great leaders up and down the chain, all of them saying, "Hey! This thing is probably going to break soon and it's going to ruin the whole year's sales forecast 'cause we won't be able to ship a damn thing!" but if that messages gets to the CFO, and they'd rather roll the dice on one more year of "lean" operation before they jump ship well...that's pretty much that.

Also, no company I've ever worked for makes their budget after asking people what they need. Instead, the Finance team just copy-pastes last year's budget, usually with a little haircut off the top for "efficiency." So let's say you run a team that depends on a handful of servers. You bought the current ones five years ago, and it cost $500k. Now it's time to replace them. But since you didn't buy $500k in servers last year, it's not in the budget for this year, so now your entirely reasonable request is being scrutinized as "unplanned spend". Several times I've seen teams try to build a plan for the upcoming year, only to find that there's nobody to give it to, because the "budgeting process" is done in about a week's time, usually two or three weeks after the fiscal year starts and with commensurate effort.
I have been a part of an NGO for about 12 years now. Previous year I was appointed as a head of our NGO. Our NGO solely focuses on providing mid day meals in schools and also takes part in covid 19 food donations. Our NGO team is very big as there are people in each district of our state. Such a huge team not only has volunteers but there are a few paid employees in our organization too like the website developer, finance analyst , social media handle and many more who get paid monthly for their service.
I haven't yet seen anyone actually create a gpt3 bot that can top chatGPT, I'm not sure how it's tuned, or what you'd need to do to get it there. Would be cool though if an ai could follow me around see everything I see on my phone/pc and log into their fine-tuning, and let me search for everything I come across. Maybe I could dictate an idea and when I ask for ideas about things it'll regurgitate my better ideas.

That's a wishfully pessimistic and cynical point of view. Multinationals are made of people and like people, some of them have more less turncoat attitudes. TSMC would probably not abandon Taiwan, it knows it's essential to its defense.

This time it was Finland that pushing them both to NATO. Finland had friendly pack with Sweden that if either of them decide to pursue NATO membership they would let the other one know.

Last year by the time Finnish leadership and people were pretty much decided on NATO, Sweden was just starting their discourse so they had to catch up not be left behind. Now somewhat ironically because of Sweden, Turkey has been delaying and objecting the membership.

Finland has also kept with updating equipment and keeping the conscription military service these past 100 years, Sweden ended their conscription and mostly been downsizing their military.

You can't be sure what they're paying. For Apple I've seen $0.0056, $0.01, $0.008, and $0.006. The only consistency is that Napster, Tidal, and Amazon Unlimited (Not Prime) are always among the top payers and Spotify at the bottom in the West.

P.S.: Qobuz might be the best one, paying $0.04, on par with Peloton - or $0.03 if you adjust based on Peloton's reduction since then - while being cheaper than Tidal.
If the explanation is directly connected to specific parts of the code, it's not "why", it's "how". "Why" will be true regardless of implementation, "how" won't be.

Comments should be less visible, as they distract the coder from understanding what the code actually does with potential lies about what the code ought to do, according to the flawed human who wrote the code.

Put the comments elsewhere. We don't put all our code in one file to solve "it needs to be visible!" problems, we shouldn't do it with our docs either, it is not consistent nor is it helpful.
One of the great small book I read about writing is: Style: Lessons in Clarity and Grace (https://www.amazon.com/Style-Lessons-Clarity-Grace-12th/dp/0...) It is very different from Strunk&White book in that it does not address things like whether you should place a comma or not, it teaches you about how to present you idea clear and easy to understand. In short write less like Friedrich Hayek and more like Ray Dailo. The former uses much more beautiful long sentences, but the latter's essays are more easy to read, and clearer in delivering the author's ideas.
There isn't much difference along some axes (e.g. downranking is downranking) but there's a huge difference along other axes (e.g. organic community response is very different from authority intervention).
I feel like a lot more questions get ass-covering answers from the legal department now, and it seems to really, really want to caveat almost everything it says on any subject. Pretty much every AI service that has launched so far has gone through the same cycle of initially being really powerful, then slowly being hamstrung by negative press and legal departments.
I wish we could get away with that but one of the dismayingly consistent findings of running an internet forum (or this one, anyhow) is that you can't rely on high rep for almost anything.
These are called a “call sign” [1]. The International Telecommunication Union issues prefixes[2], and in the US the Federal Communications Commission issues four- (formerly three-) letter call signs under their prefixes[3][4] to commercial broadcast stations. They also require (or required? not sure what the modern regulations are) stations to regularly announce their call sign for identification purposes, so a lot of radio stations folded the sign into their branding since they had to use it anyway.

Simplicity is one desirable aspect of writing, which is a technology.
Graham's argument seems to be that simplicity makes writing effective.
It can. But effective for what? To what end? The ecstasy of
communication?

Enhancing reach only makes sense if you have a message. The envelope
for that message might also be passionate, sincere, vivid, playful,
challenging, informative, and perhaps most of all - enjoyable for the
writer. But it must be addressed to something.

Let's return to that first sentence. Writing is a technology.

Most of the images Paul Graham's piece invokes, of dragging a heavy,
tedious train behind me, apply more to any computer technology than
writing. Show me today one piece of digital writing (code) that is
simple, universal, transparent, and durable.

There is a line between Orwell's "Politics and the English Language"
and Postman's "Seven Questions About Technology", and somewhere on it
is point where we ask "What is it's sincere and honest purpose?" As
mobile technology and social media show, I think we've lost track of
purpose and gotten obsessed with the form itself.

The word 'censor' was traditionally used to describe an intervention by governing authorities. People have much stronger reactions to that than they do to actions by peers who have the same privileges as they themselves do.

You're right insofar that a ranking isn't any different based on who did the downranking. But there are other variables than just rank. If you don't believe me, wait until the next time we mess up and misapply moderation power, and see how ferocious the response is.

The evidence strong towns presents is not convincing. They take rural towns far from cities and claim that towns issues represent suburbs. They cherry pick suburbs that have issues and claim it represents all. Nowhere do they apply statistical or scientific rigor.

Suburbs have existed for more than 100 years. They have rebuilt their roads many times. They have installed modern things like telephone, running water and so on over the years.

People interested to learn more?

We don't just learn a new subject through simpler ELI5 explanations.

We also learn by immersing ourselves further into the subject (like here, were we were given an alternative, still elaborate explanation), until things "click".

In immersive learning (like how kids learn language and most other wordly things naturally outside of explicit teaching) we also get to understand the meaning of an unknown term by compounding other unknown terms, and making correlations, connections, and deductions.
