The cartels at this point have diversified into avocado farming, iron mining, and forestry. Not to mention human trafficking, which makes them some $13 billion a year.

The war on drugs has been a disaster and should be ended, but saying that legalising all drugs will solve the cartel problem is too simplistic. And while legalising heroin and prostitution and instituting open borders could overall be better policy, these are a bridge too far for most Americans.
There's so many of these "k8s is too complex" blogs I have been thinking about where they come from. I feel like if a person strictly has an application-developer background, they just don't understand how much kubernetes has 'solved' from the time before kubernetes. Not that k8s is perfect, but they've never had to think about app runtime because ops teams helped. It can be complex if you had never finagled with webservers, config management, app segmentation, internal DNS, scaling, etc.

As for trying to get at the real problem, perhaps there's room for tools that could make k8s better and understandable for these app-focused engineers (something like lens, but without stupid licensing).

That seems extremely unlikely to make any sense given that the random seeds in question would be, what, FP32 or FP64 by default? So that's 4 billion random seeds per prompt. Better hope your GPUs are really cheap and you're targeting a really popular prompt+model+everything-else...

One more vote from me for mathacademy.com!

For reference, though I now work in tech, I have a physics degree from a top-10 worldwide university, and reviewing linear algebra on math academy has not only been great to re-learn things I've forgotten, I'm confident that it's taught me at least a few things that I've never encountered before.

So yeah, it's legit in my book.

I also think that one of the reasons it gets such rave reviews/etc from folks using it is that it's, frankly, not that well known yet, and we users who like it _really_ like it, so we want to see it stick around and grow further for our own use too!
The prompt is not a creative expression, it's more like a cooking recipe, hence is not copyrightable.

The short answer is that I'm quite familiar with those, but I felt the post I'd made was getting alarmingly long already, and I did decide to try and reduce some of the "10k word epics" I'm prone to writing. This probably should have been split into multiple posts, but I struggled to find anything I found relevant to cut. And, yes, figuring out the structure of it was a challenge, because I know a lot of people won't read to the end, so... consider it my best attempt.

I probably should have mentioned CRI and R9 in particular, as those are quite relevant, and a lot of the cheaper LEDs perform very poorly on R9. But I also ran into a limit of the affordable spectrometer I was using being more focused on the blues (it's designed for a 400-580nm main range) than the reds, so I wasn't too comfortable using the data from it to make strong claims about the reds. I'd need a meter that reads either (a) far wider range or (b) more focused on the 600+nm range to make those claims, and I don't have one. While I don't mind spending money for blog post data, I'm also not willing to drop many thousands on a post. Sorry!

I'll pick up some of those Tradfri LEDs, and the "bedtimebulb" ones as well to poke and prod - I've been looking for "good LEDs," and I'm finding stuff that's at least decent looking and has a spectrum plot in the datasheet, but it's at $30/bulb. YujiLED has some stuff that looks good on paper, but... also $35/bulb shipped in small quantities, at which point it's a somewhat hard sell over just using incandescents.

I really do appreciate the feedback, especially on ordering - it's something I struggled with throughout writing this post, and I won't say I'm entirely happy with what I stuck out there, but neither did I find a lot of ways to radically improve it, without moving towards "another book of a blog post."

You say people aren't going to give up their screens, though - but I know people, myself included, who are doing exactly that after the sun goes down, to great sleep benefits. I really do notice the difference.

But as far as actionable measures... I did put those in there. Incandescents, on dimmers, in evening spaces. I have yet to convince myself that even high CRI, high R9 LEDs are low enough in blue to not interfere with human sleep. The ones I've used don't dim very well at all, and certainly not as deeply as incandescent bulbs do.
Hats off, I think it takes some real dedication to stick with it.

> One of the things I found useful here was to get immediate practice once I knew just enough. I think this is one of the reasons project-based learning can be so powerful: you have a problem and research your way into it versus researching your way into it and then seeing what to apply.

This. Perhaps it varies from person to person, but this is also how I learn best. I want to start with a problem, struggle to solve it, and then learn how to actually solve it. That way the material immediately clicks and sticks with me longer. Why don't schools teach this way?

I think we see "frontend monitoring" in two different buckets: "metrics-oriented" and "incident-oriented". Metrics are about things like lighthouse scores, optimizing your frontend bundle, etc.. which tend to only become relevant for larger companies as only at that point do these things affect conversions to a significant level. Incidents, however, are more about one-off issues happening in your web app, and that' what we're focusing on at highlight.io (at least right now). Examples include customer support issues, bugs that affect a user's experience, etc..

Both are important for larger companies, but for smaller companies, the only thing that we see as relevant are frontend "incidents".

So to answer your question, I'd ask yourself what types of issues are you trying to track down? Does that make sense?
Consider mmap .. your perfect candidate, it would seem, to be the basis for zero copy everything. No more read/write, your files are just chunks of memory and if you are reasonably smart about it, you can end up with either zero or just single copy semantics.

Wheee!

Then you go and look at performance, and you start to notice how some programs seem to benefit from this design, and some suffer greatly for it. You start to realize that the OS's model of likely program I/O (because let's face it, your data is not actually in volatile RAM) is sometimes right and sometimes wrong. And so you start moving either towards a model that defines the data you want to read, so that the OS can do a better job of making it all work the way you imagine it should, or you start trying to bypass the OS entirely to avoid it interfering (O_DIRECT, dear friend). But then you start realizing that your lovely zero-or-low copy design doesn't play well with others, because the OS is still working for them, and you and the OS are now stepping on each other toes.

And so it goes.

Then you try to use mmap on your audio interface, precisely to avoid unnecessary data copies, and you realize you didn't even understand what memory or mmap actually meant at all.

Which is probably as it should be.
> I don't think he's wrong that the POSIX synchronous IO model isn't a great fit for modern hardware, though.

Opinions don't really matter. Solutions to real-world problems do.

To me, the fact that no one up to this day felt that the issues in this area was significant enough to warrant a fix or an alternative tells me that it's noise about nothing.

In my experience, the biggest problems we have is that it’s hard to figure out what exactly to log. There’s sensitive information in the system that we are not supposed to store outside designated locations.

Then there is session storage itself. Do we log every request? Do we log even very large responses?

Software is so huge that it would take you a lifetime of programming from different perspectives to get a grip on what it really is. So we are all doomed to experience POSIX through whatever programming experience we end up getting deep in.

I feel the underlying problem most software is that it's just too damn complex, so you can't fit enough of it in your head to design it how you think it should go. An average person can't go "Oh, I think the kernel should be able to do this" and then go whip it up and having an experiment running in a little bit. That's an esoteric corner full of tons of specialized and arcane knowledge that, truth be told, is completely invented. And half of that invention is workarounds for other bad inventions.

I dunno enough to just pronounce doom on POSIX, but I do feel like the rickety C way of doing things (everything centered around intricately-compiled machine code executables, incredibly dainty fragile eggshells that shatter and spill their entire guts of complexity on the world) underpins a ton of the problem.

The number of years you would need to just read, let alone grok all the hundreds of millions of lines of code that run on our system is just beyond human lifetimes now.

Right now we just capture network metadata like URL, connection type (fetch, xhr, websocket, etc), status code, filesize, etc. We additionally filter this data at the edge (before anything gets stored) for any known unsafe values like credit card numbers or SSNs, in case they somehow get into the URL.

As of right now we do not capture actual network request headers or bodies.

Sure, and, of course, there are accidents and there is a mix of autonomous and people operated vehicles on site.

The main point here is that there is eight years prior art in real world conditions dealing with 1,000 km + remote driving | oversight with dropped connections and extreme heat, winds, lightning, dust storms, unexpected blockages in roads, etc.

That's a foundation that can be built on and extended.
Is air pollution causing us to lose our sense of smell?
Yeah, I agree that's an area that needs work. I admit I didn't bother to read every word, but I did search for "async" to see if he mentions aio(7) to complain about it and I saw that he didn't.

Don't get me wrong, there are lots of room for improvements in POSIX IO interfaces. For example, POSIX doesn't define any modern event systems (epoll, kqueue, etc). But what's the result? We use libevent/libev.

This sort of seems like the result he's asking for in diverging from POSIX, which we ... already have. There are a lot of pretty great non-posix standard interfaces available too!
Does this mean I get qualified immunity too? I'm not pretending to be a cop but I think I should get it. This court will probably agree with me. Maybe all Americans should have qualified immunity!
Maintenance is cheaper for older cars, and parts are readily available. New cars are much more expensive to maintain, and the cost of parts is an order of magnitude higher.

All of the cars being produced today will be junk in 20 years. Actually, I take that back; they are junk the moment they roll off the line.
Many people in the art world at the time argued exactly that, just like they are doing today. From the photographers side it took lobbying, an act of congress, and a supreme court decision to finally grant copyright protection to photographs.

Mercedes' reputation for reliability is mostly a legacy of the 60s and 70s. Their cars from that era were absurdly overbuilt, especially the diesel powered models. You will still find diesel MBs from the 70s on the road today, some of them having racked up 500k miles or more.

It is hard to believe that this bunch of drivel was actually available from acm.org. If a 16 year old programmer came to me with this nonsense, I might take the time to gently point them in a few directions. Being on the acm.org site ... unforgivable.

And not even the obvious faults, pointed out by others here. There's the question of an apparent complete ignorance of OS research, for example systems that rely on h/w memory protection and so can put all tasks (and threads) into a single address space. But what's the actual take home from such research? The take home is that these ideas have, generally speaking, not succeeded, and that to whatever extent they do get adopted, it is incremental and often very partial. If you don't understand why most computing devices today do not run kernels or applications that look anything like the design dreams of 1990-2010 (to pick an arbitrary period, but a useful one), then you really don't understand enough about computers to even write a useless article like this one.

Think about parent PIDs. You can't assume a process's parent PID is actually still the parent.
Think about file open semantics. Try to open to a file when any other process has the file open with no sharing allowed.
Think about file delete. (Really, try to delete a file reliably in Windows.)
Think about string encoding and code pages. (Well, this is out of bounds for Posix, but closely related to expected filename semantics.)
Probably because a lot of scripts and other software has written that calls tar without a hyphen in the options, and it seems strange to break them for no other reason than it seems better to you. If you want to change behavior and make a better tar with saner option behavior, you can do so, just don’t call it “tar”.

I find myself torn on this:

* Traditional Automakers: Mostly as you describe, though honestly I am fond of the UI in my VW. Most others score B-D in responsiveness and anywhere from B-F in my "is this UI closer to ideal, or to a caricature of a baffling UI that no one will ever like to use?" scale.

* Apple: "No one needs physical controls for anything, and people HATE seeing any details, so let's try to get as minimal as possible because that's just elegant. Maybe just a dashboard with a your speed, as a single number, unlabeled because labels are ugly, and three dots (touch target 0.6cm) that you have to touch to access a menu to access all other features."

* Recent Automakers: "People love screens. Let's delete lots of switches to save a few dozen dollars, and stick functionality in deeply-nested menus that require you to take your eyes off the road."

I really want the $20 worth of physical buttons, knobs, stalks and switches of a traditional car, and the extensibility of the CarPlay world.

I would indeed appreciate you reading the whole thing... I did write it to be read, and while it's long, I promise I don't blather on pointlessly. At least by my standards.

But I agree with you. I think we absolutely can make multi-emitter LED bulbs that reproduce the spectrum of incandescent bulbs, being low in the blue, etc. I know people who have looked into exactly that sort of thing, have researched relevant LEDs, good dimmers, etc. They run into the problem that to do something like that, you're looking at a BOM north of $100 (implying a far higher retail price), which is rather at odds with "anyone actually buying the thing."

So I have to ask, "Why are you sure?" I've explained how our current white LEDs work (blue pumped is the most efficient, violet pumped is somewhat better but less efficient), and the work involved in blue and white LEDs literally led to a Nobel Prize (https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/2014/press-release...).

Physics doesn't have to grant us what we want, and if your goal is "cheap white LEDs that reproduce incandescent spectrums," nobody, so far, has come up with such a thing.
