Sadly, given the behaviour of Typelevel as an organization (leftwing political activism, targeting rivals with cancellation etc), it seems vital that there’s an alternative.

I invested a lot of effort in implementing systems using Typelevel libraries (which are great, by the way), but I feel increasingly nervous about wedding myself to this side of the ecosystem.

I attended the Functional Scala conference in December (organized by De Goes and friends). It was invigorating and demonstrated that there’s momentum, professionalism and a warm community in the ZIO side of the ecosystem.
Pharma guarantees exact amounts of the active compounds each single time. Herbal medicine can't, because 5 grams of this plant harvested at shadow is radically different than this other 5 grams of the same species but growing in a colder place, or in a sunnier place or in a short summer year, etc.

Therefore with herbal medicine there is always a risk of overdosing or receiving an useless (too low) dose. The importance of this fact when people deal with such evil things as Scopolamine shouldn't be dismissed.
adrien from updown.io here.

Sorry about this, I still don't have any answer or explanation from Vultr or CloudFlare at this point. Most likely cause IMO is that CloudFlare (accidentally?) blocked one or many big ranges of IPs belonging to Vultr (and maybe some other providers as people seems to say Vultr was not the only impacted). I noticed during the incident this morning for example that I could ping CloudFlare IPv6 (ICMP) but not connect through TCP (port 443). So this sounds more like a firewall than a routing issue from what I could see.

I'll update once I have anything else in https://status.updown.io/issue/1e196616-1368-43a0-8c04-82cff.... For the moment I'm keeping the mitigation in place just in case.

If you have more details about this from CloudFlare or elsewhere I'll be happy to hear it :)
Hmm. I want to distance this library pretty far from Camel!

Wrt. "papering over": Not really. I make it "feel like" you're coding straight down, sequential, linear, as if you're coding synchronously.

But if you look at the examples, e.g. at the very start of the Walkthrough: https://mats3.io/docs/message-oriented-rpc/, you'll understand that you are actually coding completely message-driven: Each stage is a completely separate little "server", picking up messages from one queue, and most often putting a new message onto another queue.

It is true that the error handling is very different. Don't code errors! You cannot throw an exception back to the caller. You can however make for "error return" style DTOs, but otherwise, if you have an actual error, it'll "pop out" of the Mats Fabric and end up on a DLQ. This is nice! It is not just a WARN or ERROR log-line in some log that no-one will see until way later, if ever: It immediately demands your attention.

Interesting, it appears the simulation is done with netlist generated from the layout, so it's not a toy TCAD but something else?
That's true about Lorentz, although for completeness I just want to point out that the geometric spacetime extension was done by Minkowski.
This is not possible because it goes against the very basics of double-entry bookkeeping.

IBM's assets cannot be moved. They can only be sold, where assets are exchanged for other assets (most often cash or equivalents). What you mean is either petty theft or embezzlement, which are (white collar) crimes. In the event of an obviously and intentionally unfavourable sale, the shareholders (a.k.a. owners) can hold the CEO liable for damages. If the assets become impossible to recover, they are written off, which is a kind of expense in bookkeeping term. If this event is not recorded as such, there would be other crimes.

Double-entry bookkeeping ensures that assets can only appear on JBM's balance sheet if their source is documented. In practice, this meanr that they were lawfully acquired. Otherwise, the auditor would be on the hook.

Of course, it can always be that illicit activities are creatively hidden on the balance sheet and that the auditor didn't spot them. In that case, it could indeed be that JBM would have to either fix the reported budget or suddenly write off the amount that was found they don't really own. Things like these are always a risk.

Shares on the stock market are only worth their resale value and what dividends they can be expected to yield. This is hopefully basic knowledge to anyone who engages in stock trading, and it's the reason why public companies are tightly regulated and have to regularly undergo audits and report to the shareholders. The stock market does the rest.

I'd love to get educated, but I guess most divorces happen either within the first five years or after ~twenty years when the things that kept a bad marriage together (kids or physical appearances) go away. Limiting any marriage to 20 years would only get rid of the latter. I also guess that a lot less people would marry because marriage is a way to ensure the economic existence of the party who sacrificed their career to take care of children.
Why not wish for a peaceful transition to a more open and free society? China has already proven it can move towards being more open without collapse, for example.
It’s not as bad currently, but 10 years ago it wasn’t that unusual to find things like government and bank websites using freaking ActiveX.

These days I would imagine it means things like not publishing videos with (only) proprietary codecs, or using some sort of non-standard non-open 2fa or something.

Might be helpful to set up and use a few public repos.

Or at least convince a single user to do this so you can show your tool in action.

It’s always hard to get that first user.
People say basically the same thing while on vegan/keto/paleo/raw diets. The real trick is being mindful about what you eat and minimizing processed junk. Based purely on the externalities, you probably picked the worst arbitrary set of rules to remove junk from your diet.
The low hanging fruit on physics discoveries using current technology is also all taken.

The right person at the right place at the right time -- the time is maybe the biggest one. It's not just Einstein who revolutionized physics, his contemporaries did too
That used to be the case, now it's asset protection because the only way people will pay for skins, hats, virtual shoes, and pink guns is if you can't load arbitrary assets.

If a server says: load whatever skin you want... well, why would you pay for it?

This is also why modding got killed off, you can't sell people stuff if someone else will make better assets for free and just puts them up for download. Even if integrity or security was a big issue, that's been solved since quake 3 and ut99 with integrity checks and server-side load controls (ironically, the same ones that are now used in locked-down games to make selling different coloured virtual shirts a thing).
Monorepos are great... but only if you can invest in the tooling scale to handle them, and most companies can't invest in that like Google can. Hyrum Wright class tooling experts don't grow on trees.

A good article to reference when this topic gets raised:

Because they are criminals. This is strictly forbidden in most countries.

Yeah, if money and time is no object graph databases are a joy to use but being a commercial database is pretty much the death knell for support in different languages and frameworks.

I was going to say something about this being a ridiculous reason for conflict, but then again the US does have a history of starting wars over fantasies and fabrications. So consider curbing your moronic jingoistic attitude.
>and not domestic weather/research balloons ...

Keep in mind that not only US or Canada launches weather balloons. These things are well capable of flying huge distances, including across the oceans. There has been one launched by amateur radio operators a few years ago that has circumnavigated the globe - and that's not at all a rare feat.

See e.g.:

https://qrp-labs.com/circumnavigators.html

So no need to go all conspirationalist about "unmanned drones operated by foreign governments" just yet. Especially given the distances and altitudes these things were found flying at - a heavier than air device would need a ton of fuel and energy to fly that high and that far, so a "drone" that at the same time doesn't look like an aircraft is rather unlikely.
I am not sure what exactly "bouwen" means in Dutch, but the verb "to build" in English usually means the process of constructing something by humans or animals [1] [2]:

That’s a matter of opinion. The attempts to smear John (by association) seemed desperate to me, and now we know where they originated, it’s pretty obvious that this was a vexatious attack on a decent man.
Haha, much better response than the usual "wake me up when it's replicated in humans" any time there is a mouse study shared.

I was 17 and homeless prior to the job. I had to drop out of school for it. The only other option was living in a home for 16-17 year olds that had two cats (I have a 10/10 allergy to cats).

I am also not trying to claim this is common or even not extremely uncommon. Rather, I am stating that being poor is expensive. I even gave you a specific example where it is true. Where having money would mean first and foremost that I would be in school instead of working to pay rent at 17.

But that's not even where being poor started to cost me. It started to cost me when I missed meals as a kid. Is that also my fault?

Not everyone can build a cushion. That's just the way it is. There are countless divergences from the "normal" that can wreak absolute havoc on a person's health and wealth. Nobody is choosing this life.

I am no longer poor. I am a full 10 years behind my equally financially privileged brethren. I work harder, perform better, and have far superior outcomes than the people of my age who have come from a family who owned a home and could afford to send them to college while paying for housing.

Lazy people are everywhere, it's scary, it's terrifying. If that behaviour is a benefit of wealth, and it is frankly, it is in itself evidence of the cost of being poor.

I've also never asked for a hand-out. I work very hard to undo the cost of being poor. To say that it wasn't a massive disadvantage with an equivalent cost is to lie.
Accessible via the UI: click into the extension, click the right arrow next to a container, select "Manage This Container", then "Advanced Proxy Settings" and you can enter a SOCKS5 URI. And of course, this requires the aforementioned extension, not just the built-in container tabs feature. (Confusingly, Firefox does have this feature "cooked in", presumably they just expose a bunch of it via WebExtension APIs so that things like Multi-Account Containers can work.)
I remember when I was a kid, I'd heard various things about how Einstein failed school or was bad at mathematics or was just a simple patent office clerk etc etc...

Seems he was in fact super smart and educated at good schools / universities in the countries he lived in. As you'd expect from someone who revolutionised parts of science.

> I'm being mildly hyperbolic because I think a lot of people assume it's just watching kids play. It's not. Where do you think fine motor skills, balance, exercise habits, mental health, diet, recognition of emerging health issues comes from?

Many parents can't afford childcare anymore for their pre-school kids. Their just isn't enough supply, and the supply that is out there is too expensive. Productivity can't be improved given fixed requirements, and people's labor continues to get more expensive.

If we really believe this, then let's dump a bunch of resources at the society level. However, if we insist on keeping pre-school care private, this requirement will only make daycare even more scarce than it is, so that fewer children to receive any kind of formal daycare at all (and parents will drop out of the workplace, leading to further knock on effects).

Economically speaking, we simply can't afford the system we have now, let alone an even more resource-intensive system that we can imagine.
Humans have been raising children for hundreds of thousands of years without an advanced education, but now, suddenly, they need one?

Socialites who "trafficked in Leonardo" back in the 90s likely pulled the reverse stunt (anyone in the know calls him Da Vinci) after a famous giant rat gave the name Leonardo to a mutant turtle ninja, as Leo was among the rats four favorite artists. TMNT was so popular in the 90s that if you said "I like Leonardo more than Michelangelo", and were not currently standing inside an art gallery, everyone would assume you were talking about Ninja Turtles. If you said "I like Da Vinci more than Michelangelo" people would understand you were saying I like the artist Leonardo Da Vinci more than the ninja turtle Michelangelo ;)

The technical change is that you can build very useful, very small sats, which are cheap. Current SpaceX launch costs are lower, but like 1/2 price and 2x is not a big premium for a national security need.

I don’t understand these “missiles cost too much” budget arguments. Defense costs hundreds of billions annually. The cost of the people who orchestrate the firing of that munition vastly outweighs the cost of the munition.

US military shoots down high-altitude object over Lake Huron on Sunday
As mentioned here: https://mats3.io/background/system-of-services/

.. Mats is meant to be an inter-service communication solution.

It is explicitly not meant to be your front-facing endpoints. If you are DoS'ed, it would be from your own services. Of course, that might still happen, but then things would not have been much better if you used sync comms.

It is true that you can bridge from sync to the async world of Mats using the MatsFuturizer (https://mats3.io/docs/sync-async-bridge/), but then you still have your e.g. Servlet Container as the front-facing entity.

Indeed. I think a much more accurate model looks a lot like the returns on an investment.

Returns are always accumulating to what you already have. If you know a lot you have context to recognize the next thing that comes along better. You’re in a place that is more wired for learning surrounded by smarter people.

The guy says as much himself when he says “you’re at Stanford” for god sakes. People who didn’t have enough of the good thing in high school aren’t starting at a lower Y-Axis point they’re simply not on the graph at all.

Most of life’s “graphs” don’t look like linear lines they look like compound interest.
Thankfully, Northstar makes Titanfall 2 completely independent of EA if need be. Right now they still check the EA client ID against EA's servers to get around copyright/legal issues, so you have to own the assets according to EA in order to play a modded private hosted version, but there is no reason the EA-check couldn't be removed. The loader is open source, so anyone who wants to could fork it and do that.

I suspect, however, that this time people got lucky: the Titanfall 1 and 2 games contained most, almost all of the server-side requirements/assets, so hosting a server was mostly a matter of breaking in to one DLL file and a few game script modifications to get access to the entire source engine and game features. As far as I understand, the main missing content were the navigation meshes for the AI, a few scenario scripts, and some party/lobby features. Most, if not all of those have been reverse-engineered or created by the community, so that's not even an issue anymore.

But the more games get individually specialised engines, less and less server features included in the client-side game releases, the harder it becomes to do this type of stuff. In the case of idTech, unreal engine and Source, most things outside of the main menu and settings panel are 'maps' and those are either 'hosted' by your own game client, or by a remote server. That means that due to the architecture, the client package has to have at least some server features. If games have training modes, or explore/tryout/singleplayer modes, there has got to be more server-logic/code/assets in the client package to enable that.
It is old question of getting something right now or delay your gratification and get more in the future.

If I learned anything from playing strategy games like Starcraft it is two things:

"Agility wins almost always over bunker mentality" Be nimble. Ability to pivot quickly has a value.

"You only take now what you need to survive plus a safety margin and use everything else to macro." Macro = investing in improving your income/production ability). Greedy = low safety margin. You can lower your safety margins if you can get better at gathering information.
