According to "Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results" from Udemy:

"On February 13, 2023, Udemy announced to its employees that in response to macroeconomic conditions and to further streamline its operations and cost structure, it made the difficult decision to reduce its global workforce by approximately 10%. Employee notifications are complete and this action will result in a one-time charge in Q1 2023 of $8 to $9 million in non-GAAP severance costs, primarily consisting of personnel expenses, such as salaries and wages, one-time severance payments, and other benefits. Udemy expects these actions to result in annualized non-GAAP savings of approximately $30 to $32 million. Udemy believes these actions will accelerate its path to profitability and now expects to be profitable on an adjusted EBITDA basis for the second half of 2023."
What products does DO offer that Linode doesn’t?

I always thought they seemed pretty much equivalent for both price and features (though Linode did take an age to implement cloud firewalls).

I’ve personally hosted about 30 servers with them for about 15 years, did look at DO a few times but it didn’t seem worthwhile to migrate everything over (and I preferred that Linode were privately owned vs the VC backed DO).
As long as it's part of the agreement, they would need to at least notify you if they're planning to change that.
That's common in the history of science and enginering. First, someone got something to happen more or less by accident, although sometimes the accident happened because they tried a lot of possible things. Then there were attempts to improve on the new thing. Eventually, detailed theoretical understanding of the new thing was achieved, and it got much better. From pottery to semiconductors, that's been the path of progress.

We're now at the point where, by fumbling around, people have developed a sort of brain-like thing that they don't fully understand. That's just the starting point.
Now it needs theory.
Remember when Steve Jobs would "allegedly" fire you in the elevator if you couldn't explain what you were up to?

> Since it also needs to be said, the fact that you have a constitutional right to say hateful things does not mean you should or that you have a right not to be judged by other people if you choose to exercise this particular right.

This is the interesting part of the debate. It is commonly stated that freedom of speech doesn’t equal freedom from consequences, and it’s hard to imagine a law that could guarantee anyone freedom from the consequences of their speech, but is there a point where the consequences become disproportionate?

The first amendment only limits government, but there are private entities which have government-like powers in some circumstances. For example, the church. Historically if you said something the church didn’t like, you might risk shunning, or worse. People have lost livelihoods and been shut out of civic society for using speech in opposition to religious authority. Is that a legitimate and proportionate consequence of speech?

The church in America is in decline, but religiosity has found new homes amongst political mobs, who can wield their powers against free speech. They can put pressure on the private companies that act as the government of the internet. All while acting in a private, non-governmental capacity, so it’s not censorship, it’s just consequences, right?

Should we seek to limit the consequences that churches can impose?
Reminds me of an ad I saw on the tube for an online furniture company (Made.com?) claiming to 'cut out the middleman' - wtf are you if not a middleman! Always made me chuckle.

Authors told that "we are still testing". For me it has worked in Brave, Chrome, Firefox and Safari Tech Preview, with or without installed IPFS and IPFS Companion (with IPFS it works much better). Haven't worker in Safari in IOS and non-Chrome browsers on Android.

Not very fast and sometimes it requires page reloading but overall impression is awesome.
Because the whole ligatures for programming thing is relatively new. It was rarely the case that designers built them into the font.
It's the font rendering and color scheme. Looks wildly out of date to me.
Things like CDN and DoS protection: you'll need to operate massive networks and machines distributed around the globe.

Until someone creates a well-thought decentralized CF alternative from the ground up, which solves bad actor, slow and unstable node problems, with clever incentives, et cetera et cetera, we'll be stuck with centralized solutions.
Honestly, I don't think the code I write is so special that no one should ever see it. The whole product might be worth protecting, that's why the codebase isn't public. But the individual files/functions are not special in any way. And that'll be the case for 99%+ of all code.
If you think “derailment” means “on fire”, we have bigger issues.
This question is so nonsensical it almost makes me angry...
I think you have to loosely interpret "randomly wired" as "fully connected", i.e. no predefined structure (because an actually randomly wired net probably wouldn't learn well). The thing is as we've seen with convnets and now transformers, the structure of the network actually matters quite a bit. Even though a fully connected network could theoretically learn the right weights so that it emulates a convnet, in practice this is too hard to do.

This is mostly true but for things like medical devices, aerospace, industrial control and so on any corner cutting should be allowed.

I'm pretty sure that Philips right now has some thoughts on this as does Medtronic. Those two should have never happened and personally I'm all for liability of executives in such cases.
You don't need frameworks to do that though. You can just libraries for authentication that do all the work for you.

The difference is important though. With libraries, you have to connect them to each other. With a framework you don't. But with a framework, if the predefined connection isn't working for your case, you spend way more time to change it. That is, if the framework is good.
Eric (StackBlitz CEO) here- you can actually self host StackBlitz! You’ll just need our Enterprise Edition (https://stackblitz.com/enterprise) which can be run on any cloud or on-prem. Happy to answer any questions you might have!
In fact you can just use nginx. Cloudflare itself used it for a long time (although heavily modified) and nginx will give you most of the features Cloudflare had until 1-2 years ago. You'd still need the network though.
Well, if nothing that explains why i'm so against learning another language.

I know 2 languages and learning English has been an incredible painful process started in my childhood and peaked in my adulthood. That's like 30 years of pain and I still make extensive mistakes.

Your description fits and really explain why i never even considered learning another language, despite all people saying "it gets easier"
It's worth noting that, at least in rust tokio, you can spawn a background task. Not sure if there's anything similar in python.

elon fired > half the company. site runs reasonably well. personally havent seen issues.

main question is what these people did.

and being in big tech seen this up close. original leadership leave, replace by professional managers. Professional manager have no vision or care about product. only goal to grow head count..get promoted.

amazes me why so many people triggered by musk firing half company. class of worker producing no economic value but paid hundreds of thousands USD per year..catered food.. it massive GRIFT. business is business, not charity.

One clever thing they did to prevent the porcelain from breaking was that they used tea for the packaging. Not sure what they generally used in those days as polystyrene foam wasn't available, maybe wood cuttings? But if they can use something that is itself valuable cargo like tea, why not!

> The value of CloudFlare comes from its network, not the software they run.

this is, as the kids say, a *MOAT*. you could leak the entire source of cloudflare and cloudflare's value would be unaffected.
Yes, there is quite an enthusiastic crowd of people making videos of trains. A video of a train on fire just cruising along is gold and there aren’t that many.

Unless you are proposing a conspiracy where the train companies run them on fire only in areas with no people and then shut the fire off as they approach towns/cities/crossings.
How did this happen? a pickle is not a sensible storage format. it's insecure, hard to version, not very portable. isnt a model basically a big matrix of numbers?
Sounds like art imitating life.
Those things work well when you're the only one doing them to gain an advantage over your competitors. But as soon as everybody starts doing it that means that the whole chain will adapt and suddenly all that stock that allowed you to do JIT and offload the costs of keeping that stock onto your suppliers evaporates which takes all of the slack out of the system. Now everybody has to perform and that will work right up to the first crisis and then the whole house of cards comes tumbling down.

It is always important to know what the underlying assumptions of your strategic advantages are. Going 'countercurrent' can work, but then if the tide turns you need to be aware that your previous advantage is now a risk.
Ultimately it was a game more than sim. Note the lack of parking lots.

As a website owner, pretty much all traffic I see from Tor is malicious. I also block it outright now, it decreased bad traffic by a lot. So I can understand the decision of CF here. The problem is not Cloudflare or Tor, it's the people abusing Tor.

TBH, something similar to hacker news but taken to an extreme. Give actual value to an account and make detriments revoke those priveledges. You need a minimum karma here to downvote, so take that and add more priveledges. even up to being light moderator or being able to have higher weighting in votes for comments. reward good behavior and quickly remove it if the tides turn.

You need some self moderation in oder to keep a healthy community, this encourages and rewards regulars. This can also guard against "Eternal September" if a regular's vote mattered more than some newcomer.

It depends a bit which time-frame you use as well. Taiwan and Indonesia have become more democratic since the 90s; Balkan countries (former Yugoslavia) are doing mostly okay today. Possibly some other countries as well.

Russia had a "decade of democracy", which also failed quite spectacularly. It doesn't really have a long democratic tradition that you see in other countries.

good by who's definition? because there are plenty of people who hate cloudflare for flip flopping on nazi sites and will also heap that hate on just regular SWEs who join cloudflare who dont really have anything to do with those decisions.

I can’t answer your question but I would push back on the claim that it’s done the requested task very decently.

There is nothing uniquely Eminem or Dennett about their respective parts. Eminem has never released a verse with as simplistic rhyme scheme as what’s been produced.

Part of the mystique in your question is by assuming that’s it’s done the Eminem/Dennett part of the request justice, when it could really be anyone else’s name attached. I’m impressed that it can create a rap battle about consciousness, but I don’t think it’s done much more than that.

Same for SimCity 2013, except the flaws extended to every agent. I've always thought that's why they limited the city size so heavily. Such a shame, because there was so much promise there.

Power, water, etc. randomly chose a direction at a junction, so even basic grid would make it impossible to power a building on the other side of the city, even if the power demand was there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvq6zAMJfOU.

Traffic and pedestrians were attracted to available houses/work, but randomly every day, rather than having a defined home/work location. I built a pedestrian heavy city and would watch crowds of pedestrians head for the nearest available house on a street, before the whole street filled, and they turned around for the next nearest. Same for work, shopping, despite there being plenty available.
You're confusing the means of communication and collaboration (remote vs office), with the fungibility of engineers.

They are distinct things, and knowledge workers aren't the most fungible things.

A good team is a good team, regardless of how they communicate and collaborate. Replace one person in that team, and you have a different team.

Replacing a team just because they're remote is phenomenally destructive, just like the layoffs are.

> because why not? after all, remote is so efficient

That's not the point of remote. It is a preferred way of working for a significant portion of the industry.
Maybe it was originally visible, but written with a kind of ink that has weathered away over the years, and only the creases the pen left behind are still visible?

I did a year at a large law firm straight out of law school, not because of any free lunches, but because the debt is enormous. https://hls.harvard.edu/sfs/financial-aid/financial-aid-poli...

On top of that, the accession process for public interest is full of uncertainty. Law firms, as private entities, can structure their recruiting process however they like; and the common practice is for a 2L summer job to turn into a full-time offer. But federal agencies (and typically state agencies) are required to go through the government hiring process; and non-profits typically don't have the budgetary margin to make offers a year in advance. Even the DOJ Honors Program, specifically designed for recruiting directly from law schools, is only open to graduating law students; you can't compete as a 2L and then get a full-time offer at the end of your 2L summer.

I applaud this student for writing about their experience, but at the end of this coming summer, when facing down the barrel of $300,000 in debt and no immediately apparent way to pay it, their perspective may change. If it does, it will likely be for far more compelling reasons than a Paul Weiss hoodie.
Haha, I am a developer. Do you know how many projects I’ve worked on where the tech lead said “thou shalt write a week’s worth of boilerplate cruft per each new feature” just to make sure the codebase adheres to the pattern? Anybody who does that and pretends they’re being “productive”… is hurting my feelings.

If I could do the work of even two developers, I’m definitely getting paid. I think software engineering is headed for a John Henry moment.

"Hello, this is Bing. I found some information about the new Avatar film for you.

There are actually two new Avatar films in the works, one based on the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender and one based on the 2009 science fiction film Avatar by James Cameron.

The animated film is set to begin production sometime in 2021 and will be released on October 10, 2025.

The science fiction film is titled Avatar: The Way of Water and is a sequel to the first Avatar film. It was released on December 16, 2022 and was a massive box office success, earning over $2.2 billion worldwide2. It stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver and Stephen Lang3. James Cameron directed and produced the film and reportedly made a minimum of $95 million off the film.

I hope this helps you."

The movement of a ball on each shape (triangular, parabolic, Norton's-domic) will be modeled with its own differential equation. Some of these differential equations will have one and only one solution (given the boundary conditions).

One of these differential equations has an infinite number of solutions--even given the boundary conditions :-)

Best way to really understand this is to roll up your sleeves and spend an afternoon setting up and solving the various differential equations.
