> There's no requirement to have single versions of dependencies in a monorepo. Google allows[0] multiple versions of third-party dependencies such as jQuery or MySQL, and internal code is expected to specify which version it depends on.

Sure, but this is unsustainable. If service Foo depends on myjslib v3.0.0, but service Bar needs to pull in myjslib v3.1.0, in order to make sure Foo is entirely unchanged, you'd have to add a new dependency @myjslib_v3_1_0 used only by Bar. After two years you'd have 10 unique dependencies for 10 versions of myjslib in the monorepo.

At this point you've basically replicated the dependency semantics of a multi-repo world to a monorepo, with extra cruft. This problem is already implicitly solved in a multi-repo world because each service simply declares its own dependencies.
So when MH17 was shot down, would Malaysia Airlines be responsible for harm done to people of Грабове, had it fell on this village directly?

Any airliner is a flying object full of dangerous chemicals, flammable and toxic.
I have been poor most of my life.

I have had clothes stolen by people who have had access to free clothes at many locations.

I'm also not talking about Mexico when I am talking about cold wind and snow in 20 below with a -42(celsius) 'feel'.

The point being made was that having the option to do either "the poor" or "efficient" method is advantageous. This advantage impacts time. Which, my understanding is, you disagree with.

Perhaps you can tell me when having two options is worse than having one in the context of the article.

Also, I don't see anyone as inferior. Nor have I suggested such. It's highly offensive.

Have a good one.
Clickbait imho because there are less charged ways to express the point of what is essentially a sales pitch comparing a generic synchronous web service.

Why risk the cognitive dissonance by contriving the term “synchronous REST-based systems”

What? Lol.
OK, plane flying overhead. You shoot it down. Who's going to be held responsible? The airline or the people taking it out of the sky?

Where's the line drawn if the dangerous thing I mentioned before has a practical use? Maybe the balloon is filled with a mix that is toxic to something (crop, livestock, etc). Or there's a component of the payload that is dangerous when hit by a missile or making contact with the ground?

I'm guessing China sees this all as low risk research and nothing more exciting than that, but just trying to imagine what else might be going on, or come next. (I'm not anywhere near either China or the US.)
NetBSD (and pkgsrc) have a very loyal user base, with quite different expectations from their system than the Linux or FreeBSD user base.

I guess what NetBSD is after (preserving the heritage of the original / early Unixes from which it descends, keeping things simple and stable with minimal requirements while staying as platform agnostic as possible) is a bit of a niche, which also explains the small user base.

More users favor simplicity of usage rather than technical simplicity, run powerful aarch64/amd64 machines rather than exotic / constrained hardware, and are more after the "move fast" model than after long term technical stability and consistency. A large "frenetic" project like Linux simply suits those users better.

What do you think aging is? I was under the impression that there is evidence that aging is due to degradation of cell DNA over time, even if this isn't known conclusively at this time.
I'm assuming that the cost of building and launching these balloons is lower that launching fighter aircraft to shoot them down with missiles. I wonder if we're about to see thousands.
I think it’s not the moment for Linux gaming in general, but more so the moment for certain devices like the Steam Deck. Fixed hardware platform is what you need to precompile shaders and eliminate stutter. I would love for Valve to put out a box that sits under your TV with an APU on par with the PS5

The classified information "complex" is huge and includes all sorts of private actors. It's incidentally rife with abuse and corruption because the organizations' activities don't see the light of day often.

Without 10 GbE (or at least 2.5 GbE) using any kind of NAS is a pretty significant performance downgrade over directly connecting hard drives (even using USB 3). GbE has been too slow for even a single hard drive for at least 15 years.
Yeah, but how worried? I mean, Google's portfolio is totally diversified these days: they are the O.G. Search Engine, but Google's properties are so much more than that; there's Mail and Workspaces and YouTube and Calendar and Android phones and Meet and Voice and on and on and on.

For a company whose name is synonymous now with "searching the Internet", how much do they really have to lose if their actual Search product tanks and becomes obsolete/deprecated? They now have myriad ways to get ads in front of our faces, and they've got GCP, and they're selling Workspaces to enterprise-level companies including large universities. They're laying fibre in the street, for crying out loud!

It seems that nerds largely understand that Google Search is already obsolete, GPT or no GPT, and if it does fade into the background, I am confident that Google, and Alphabet as a whole, can soldier on regardless.

Thanks for linking. I re-read that article just now, and I interpret it differently. In a completely abstract view, GPL indeed says nothing about money. However, there's a reason the very article you linked exists - GPL exists in the real world, world defined by money and markets. As such, the article reminds us that being able to sell the software is a part of the end-user freedoms that Free Software protects. The article in fact explicitly recognizes people need to make money, and encourages them to try making money on Free Software.

My claim here is that Stallman and the FSF have a very realistic view of the world. The Free Software isn't about empowering individuals - it's about empowering communities. And communities, in the real world, always have some form of internal economy - be it favor-based, gift-based or money-based. They have a form of specialization of labor. They're also embedded in the larger local and global economies, and to survive, they need to be productive participants. Free Software isn't preventing people from making money on software - it's just counteracting the natural tendency for software to turn into capital and concentrate in the hands of the few. That is, it protects people's ability to make money via the software (should they choose to) from the interests that would build on it, establish exclusive ownership, and use it to seek rent.

FWIW, this became clear to me when I started to look into what the "right to repair" movement is really about. There's a common argument against RtR, that's very similar to a common argument against Free Software: that it assumes or mandates everyone to be a specialist able to fix and improve their devices on their own. But the RtR crowd had a very clear counter to this: it's not about you becoming a hardware engineer so you can fix your own devices. It's about you being able to get a friend, or find a local repair shop, and pay them to fix your device for you. RtR is also expressed in terms of individual freedoms and seemingly orthogonal to monetary issues - but it's been made clear all this is primarily about making the economics of local community repairs work.

Once I grokked that, I realized Free Software has always been about the same thing, but for software.
That looked like one large run-on sentence.
Perhaps having a 10Gbit internet connection and it is faster to download/upload things than 1Gbit? I'll never max it out, but it's $54/month instead of $44 for 1Gbit so why not. Why 1Gbit instead of 100Mbit?
Specifically, matchmaking shutting down isn't too bad as long as hosting and Direct Connect still work :

plenty of games that have lost their matchmaking by GameSpy shutting down have found a second MP life through third-party matchmaking services like Game Ranger.

But do NOT buy games where MP doesn't work at all without official servers (or only through Steam MP or equivalent).

They're pretty good at improvisation. Odds are good that they could pull off such a thing if they were so inclined. You don't need a traditional submarine fleet to do something like this.

They're not at the top of my suspects list though.

This article seems to just skim over the negatives here. Doesn't relefct on the reasons we got to this situation, and say's dystopian without saying why. It's reads like a promotional piece in disguise.
AMD ST (formerly PSP) and Intel CSME (formerly ME, not the same as AMT) are the only reason that I, and 3 close friends off the top of my head, are completely disinterested in buying any new x86 CPUs.

All 4 of us work in big tech companies, have 6 figure take home pay even after expenses. I don't mind paying high prices due to shortages. Lockdowns were BS and I was continuing to eat out regularly at restaurants from September 2020 to present in a state with lax mask requirements. Only 1 of the 3 friends lost any money in crypto, and it was a very small amount compared to his annual income.

Just because you and your social sphere don't fully appreciate the privacy implications of CSME and ST, which again, aren't the same as AMT, doesn't mean nobody else cares about them. Have you considered that it might be you who is in the bubble?
Yes this is the point I was making. Although, I wouldn't try to say "this was a Ukrainian achievement" – I still think you should lump most of them together as "Soviet" achievements. But calling them Russian seems just as misguided as calling them Ukrainian.

Pretty sure everyone knows they can take IR photos from the Plane... That is not really a secret.

Plus I reject the idea of secrecy from the citizens, government can not be "for the people by the people" if they keep secrets from the people
But remember - these planes are often up in the air anyway for training. The US Air Force has some of the highest flight hours per pilot of any air forces. Yes it will cost more, but it's hard to say by how much.

Fighter jets don't just sit in hangars all day. They're no good without trained pilots.
I'm trying to think of potential grey areas in the middle where the agitator could say "It was minding its own business. It wasn't dangerous until you shot it down. That gas mix was part of the cooling system and would've been completely fine if you didn't launch a missile at it." And some portion of the host public could be convinced that this was a reasonable opinion and hold their government responsible. I don't think your example fits that.
It’s hard to beat a pedigree like Anders’ for Typescript. He had Delphi and C# to cut his teeth on. I can’t imagine many other people that would be better qualified to design something pragmatic on top of the ugliness of JavaScript

Obviously this depends on the jurisdiction the website is complying with (e.g. US-only websites may not comply with GDPR), but since GDPR requires consent to be opt-in (cannot be assumed by default or have pre-checked consent boxes), I think a GDPR-compliant website cannot assume an [X] to mean the user is consenting to cookies.

Not exactly unsustainable considering Google has been very successful with this approach!
Personally watching people interact with it on Bing I think there is a bright future with this technology. As always there are negatives, but I find the hyperbolic pessimism by a lot of people sad. I'm glad humanity usually ignores naysayers with things like this.
> Consider a small sample of heinous cases

I can cite henious cases committed by London Police force. Just a couple months ago we've convicted 'bastard dave'. He was a cop and used his position to become a serial rapist and a murderer, and he had a nickname, which strongly suggests some of his colleagues knew something.

You have to assess three points to understand if the entire organisation is responsoble.

Have they commited significantly more warcrimes, than comparable situation suggests is, dreadfull to say, normal? Say during occupation of Iraq? For blue helmets I mean, I hope London police do not think of themselves that way.

Can these acts be traced back to some higher level of command, that is either turning a blind eye or is actively encouraging them?

When these acts become known, are the perpetrators punished, or are these acts tolerated?

I have not studied history of blue helmets, but these are the kind of questions you should be seeking to answer.
As you stated you don't know much about their details, it wasn't meant to be pejorative: they're actually called Blue Helmets (and Blue Berets). I would wager their most defining visual characteristic is their helmet color, which is quite terrible as camouflage and wholly unsuitable for a conventional military force.

Their Rules of Engagement are also significantly different from those of a conventional military force.

The International Court of Justice (the IJC–not the ICC) is part of the United Nations System. At that body, at least, UN peacekeepers enjoy blanket immunity. To oversimplify it, it's another case of, "we have investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing."

The UN nominally expects host countries to prosecute the war crimes of their peacekeepers, but in reality the nature of deploying to somewhere needing peacekeepers is that the rule of law on the ground is already minimal, at best. So there's no real enforcement mechanism to prosecute these crimes.

It is not a trivial distinction. One can debate their virtue and utility value one way or the other, but the distinction is real and significant. They operate under a unique set of circumstances and saying war is hell and victors typically enjoy their own brand of immunity is true enough, but not entirely applicable here.

I don’t want to particularly get into all of it at this moment, as there were a lot of weird moving parts. In the end Cloudflare gave me a very straightforward process and a better offer, so I ended things with Google post in-person-interview but pre actually extending me an offer.

What I will say is that from what I hear this sort of under-leveling is pretty normal and just how it is. Maybe it’s better now, I don’t know.
This is very cool. Let me know if your Manim patch is accepted.
A lot of other comments have covered other aspects, and here's another one. If balloons become commonplace, I'd bet that they don't scramble the latest and greatest to shoot them down. It could probably be done with a turboprop.

The F-22 was probably used in the most popular case as a show of force.
Main reason is that lasers don't do as much damage to people as bullets. Bullets poke holes, lasers burn. This laser is for drones and small warheads.

The other reason is that lasers are big and expensive. This laser is mounted on Stryker armored vehicle and probably costs a ton. Bullets and guns are cheap. The regular Stryker carries 50cal machine gun which is overkill for shooting people.

People and bullets are fine for hitting people. Enough that there hasn't been much work in automated targeting. The laser has faster targetting and more accuracy which is good for drones.
Well, it’s certainly easy to claim that

They've already invaded a nation. What you're suggesting here is like a violent machine-gun toting bank robber in ski mask making sure to pay his parking bill before driving off, because he's worried about what other people might think of him.

Using international trade to coerce nations is a far lesser crime than invading them and leveling their cities with artillery.

I think their processors are not including management engine, so you are safe to buy one. The management engine that included in chipsets can be switched off permanently.
In general usage, it does not matter while you use third party controlled CAs, distro repositories and automatic updates, not speaking about microsoft, google, nvidia, valve, mozilla spyware that can do anything with your data anytime they (or US/EU government agencies) want.
I'm unworthy to criticize? Did you forget where you are? If you don't value my perspective, you can move on.

I'm sure the rant is interesting. I haven't really been following his life story.

I suspect that when Carmack was making PC games all the way from Commander Keen to Rage, he understood the value of PC as a free/liberated platform. Do I have proof? Well, here he is lamenting the consequences of working on a proprietary platform. I'm content with that.

This isn't some kind of trial. My point is not to condemn the man. My point is to use his character to articulate the story of my own perspective.
Even so, the cost is often outrageously high.

No to mention that if you're the first team to import a third_party library, you own it and other teams can add arbitrary cost to you updating it. You have to be very aggressive with visibility and SLAs to work around this.
Both would have acted with (at least) careless disregard for human life, so I would consider both to be responsible. It would however be much easier to know who shot it down than it would be to know who put it up, so I think the public would primarily blame whoever shot it down in practice. There would probably be no way to know if the government was telling the truth about the origin of the object in such as situation, absent an admission.
Lot of things going on in space lately

Let's take a moment to remember this beautiful story: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/reagan-and-gorbach...
Aging is one side effect of a major internal system that counteracts cancers.

Most of our cells are preprogrammed to die after a certain number of replications. This is one of many systems that counteract normal genetic mutations - which can cause cancers and other side effects. By definition a cancer has to reproduce and one way of defeating cancers is for cells to die (or be killed) once they reach a number of cell reproductions.

Think of a binary tree where the tree depth is the number of cell reproductions, and telomere length controls tree depth. Each time a cell reproduces it risks mutations. Stem cells are the progenitor branches, and stem cells maintain “cleaner” copies of DNA, which then become normal cells. Normal cells then reproduce a number of times before they kill themselves.

We have evolved this system because it balances the shorter term harms of cancer (high cost preventing reproduction), and senescence (lower cost after reproduction).

There can be no “cure” for cancer, or aging. The cure would for cancer would require some way to either cause perfect cell reproduction, or to remove (or correct) all cells with imperfect reproductions. The “cure” for aging would require a cure for cancer. If I were to invest in something myself, it would be brain transplant, since brain cancers are rare, and dealing with organ rejection seems doable, and the issue of nerve reconnection seems solvable. The main problem is finding spare bodies, which can be unethically solved for a few wealthy people.

The balanced-tree-depth metaphor makes me think of this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=plVk4NVIUh8 although admittedly it isn’t that relevant!

This is misleading.

It's not about not wanting to serve someone. It's about how much you have to serve.
