Yea but Github isn't competitive in all the SDLC stages like Gitlab. Gitlab is comprehensive platform for DevSecOps whereas Gitlab is more of a point solution that covers a few stages like SCM and CI/CD through GitHub actions which are complicated to use. Shops with excellent DevSecOps hygiene will still need to subscribe to multiple other point solution tools to get the same capabilities of Gitlab offered in a single platform for one price. Our shop saves money on OpEX using Gitlab after we cut the expense of lots of other tools and the overhead of maintaining them with consolidation into Gitlab.
This reminds me of Car2Go being relatively well-utilized in Vancouver compared to other parts of North America.

How did you make this move? I've day-dreamed about this, but curious to hear details from someone who did it.
The idea is just not as obvious as you think. Take, for example, Manhattan in NY. If you compare the ratio of car/bus on its streets to a smaller city (I live in Seattle), it will be significantly lower. To the point that I am unsure removing cars altogether would change road conditions.

Now suppose we take all or majority of Manhattan's roads, let pedestrians in, and only allow buses, trucks, and utility vehicles. Suddenly buses are much slower than they are now, because the pedestrians have the right of the way.

The first thought that came into my head was that AOC should be taking a victory lap over this. I clearly remember all the hate she got not only from the collective of right wing people but also her own party.

Sure enough after this news, she has brought it up:

"When I opposed this Amazon project coming to New York bc it was a scam of public funds, the whole power establishment came after us.

Billboards went up in Times Sq denouncing me. Powerful pols promised revenge. Op-Eds & CEOs insulted my intelligence.

In the end, we were right."

"I know I’ll never get an apology for that time, but it was worth it.

We protected NYers from a scam deal to drain public dollars from schools & infrastructure in exchange for empty promises of “Amazon jobs” w/ 0 guarantees or guardrails. Sadly, cities who took it are suffering."

That's what I was thinking too: when Linux was released there was no viable Unix-like OS for the current day PC machines.

Edit: actually there was SCO, but it was costly. So above really I mean "no viable free Unix-like OS for...PCs".
Funnily enough just spent a day tracking down a weird problem in an embedded system - some event timestamps were getting corrupted in a weird way. The pattern wasn't obvious until in desperation I dumped them in hex and found the second MSB was toggling between 0 and 1 (whereas it should have been been part of a count sequence). That told me exactly where to look - where the count was re-assembled from four bytes and I found this upstream (paraphrased):-

uint8_t tx_data[64];

....
tx_data[43] = utime>>24;
tx_data[44] = utime>16;
tx_data[45] = utime>>8;
tx_data[46] = utime;

This has nothing to do with brightness or with the bulbs being LEDs. Their hardware is not properly suited for the environment it's being used in.

The saying is "it takes two to have a car accident", and I found out over the years that it's mostly true, I've forgiven a lot of mistakes by other drivers, and viceversa.

It's also the cultural dimension to this: we as humans are very good as establishing a culture or fitting into a new culture when new to it. We are very good at predicting what the other drivers are doing, and we can avoid a lot of incidents that way. When could the AI have a perception of culture change, and say an AI trained in SF would have a hard time adapting in DC or New York - all with different styles of driving. Not to mention moving to other countries...

> proportionality seems to be working

The fine is arbitrarily decided. There isnt anything solid governing the amount if the fine is not % of revenue. So it totally depends on the whim of the regulator. Which is totally in lieu of the principles of civil law that Europe uses. Its more like the common law practice in which the authority can interpret things and can act arbitrarily without solid, inviolable, democratically-made laws governing its behavior.

This may look like working today. Tomorrow you may find it disproportionately hitting whichever segment or sector that the interests behind the incumbent regulatory appointees target.

This is a silly game without data. I'm open to the idea of escalating consequences to effect deterrence, but we need data, not "+1 forever" to figure out the correct threshold. In any case, that's a completely separate argument. My claim is that the current system seems more than sufficient to reset any mistaken expectations due to marketing. You don't seem to disagree, so I rest my case.
This appears to be a single manager for a single railroad--not Norfolk Southern--getting caught. While egregious and likely indicative of what we all suspect--corner-cutting industry-wide--it doesn't appear related to East Palestine at all. Saying "US rail workers" feels like clickbait.

Whichever is higher implies no upper bound no?
Yes, and.... the time constant of an LR circuit = L/R -- it takes finite time to 'turn off' the electromagnets. And, the collapsing magnetic field's energy has to go 'somewhere'; and it's of opposite polarity to the current that created it.

In other words, yes, possible, but more complicated than one might think. For example, we could build a circuit that "sucks out" the field by jamming very high currents in the opposite direction through the coils. To do this needs even higher voltages that the motor normally uses.

So, yes, it's possible. Not especially easy for optimal efficiency.

There are quite a lot of bit hacks on the web, but Hackers Delight is where it took off for me.It was a massive eye-opener, what was possible and even better doing it the old-fashioned way.

The second book is very, very heavy on division and as such it's not really as much 'fun' as the original, however I'd still recommend it!

I shared the original Hackers delight with a work colleague, who had a mathematical bent and he contacted Henry Warren with a possible addition for the forthcoming second edition, Morton curves (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve) which are extremely simple to calculate, much more so than the space filling curve given in Hackers Delight, but which despite the author's interested response to us, did not go into the second edition. My colleague was very disappointed. Me too. Morton curves are just interlace-the-bits so would have slotted in so well.

Sadly there won't be a third edition as the author died.I found out when I contacted him to let him know his website was down (again!). His family let me know he had gone.

IT’s lovefest with GPT-3 needs to meet reality now
They could all be great managers and literal geniuses and it wouldn't matter. Each person you add to an org increases the number of connections and communications required to do something.

To get anything done I have to get Safety, and Compliance, and Marketing, and Sales, and Project Management, and Vendor Management, and Product Management, plus the Product Dev Team, plus any sister Dev Teams, plus QA involved. Also gotta check with Security, and confirm our Infra team can host it.

Inevitably these people will have their own things going on and may not be available. They will have to wrestle with their own complexity. This leads to meeting after meeting. Then there will be paperwork. A lot of it. Maybe I don't need most of those teams involved but I need sign-offs about that.

Plus each of those teams is there for a reason. If I ignore Compliance we get sued -- and each lawsuit is going to cost a lot more than the cost of those meetings. If Marketing isn't involved then the product launch will screw up and the offering won't go anywhere. If QA isn't there than the product will suck, or maybe screw up catastrophically.

Even if every single manager, every single C-level, every single team lead and Sr., is a bonified genius, it's still going to be a mountain of lame, pedantic work. If there was a way to ditch that then I'm sure, somewhere, one of these MIT Berkeley Disrupter-types would have done so, but the reality is that's how any org larger than like 100 people is going to work.

I'm a partner in a plastics manufacturing facility (injection molding, thermoforming).

3D printing has been big for us. No, we don't make money directly from it, or not very much. And it's extremely expensive per unit.

But it allows us to design a part for injection molding, and then iterate it many times until we are happy with the functionality of it.

Once we commit to an injection mold, it might be $15k or $30k to get it made, and it'll take 6 months. But we know that the fit will be nearly perfect by the time those first shots come out. Then we can roll with making thousands or hundreds of thousands of parts per day at the efficiency of scale.

The way that 3D printing is used by hobbyists looks fairly different than the way it's used in industry. In industry, we're mostly still using traditional design-for-manufacturing principles for the prototype: for example, we're designing it so that it could be injection molded and ejected properly from a mold, even though the 3D print doesn't need that. That's because our intent is to merely confirm what we see in Solidworks in the real world, and to show a customer an idea in their hands in the shape and form it'd actually be produced at scale.

I'm not compelled by the idea that 3D printing is going to make a big difference by allowing very small runs of parts (except for prototyping in the manner above). That's because like everything, there is a power law when it comes to parts. Nearly all the revenue comes from medium and higher volume products. Sure, it's useful in niche applications, and for things like jigs, but as much as people love to talk about the power of long tails, it rarely is as good a fit to the real world as the power law.

But the idea that 3D printing is making a big difference in improving the design and innovation with those medium to higher volume products made with conventional manufacturing methods is absolutely true.

A quick search on 'Ampro' turned up https://www.elite.parts/ampro/little%20board$z80 which might do.

My first CP/M computer was an Ampro Little Board 1A, sold along with a floppy carrying CP/M-2.2 + ZCPR3. I got a lot done on that machine, including a text-mode MIDI editor-sequencer -- the Z80 DART as set up could run the second serial channel (the first was CON to the terminal) at the MIDI baudrate and slave-interrupt to derive its MIDI Clocks from a sync-track recorded/played on a 4-track cassette machine through a Kansas City tape-modem.

Low-effort FUD. This is an image of the author, who is a tenure track assistant professor in Denmark. Your comment is not constructive, is not based on any evidence, and can be addressed through simply clinking through 1 link in the OP.
Also a full time pedestrian. While I have near-zero trust for drivers, autonomous cars are not the savior.

At an intersection you can usually see where the driver is looking to help inform your frogger-like quest to not die. There's nothing to look at in an autonomous vehicle. You are operating on hope that the OS was designed to see you and stop accordingly.
Unfortunately, the people here in the comments attributing this phenomenon to feminism tend not to go deep enough. Yes, feminism is cancerous, but most of these teenage-level critiques just play into the hands of enemies by arguing on the same terms of liberals, utilitarians and socialists. I invite you not to dialogue with these people, who are largely unaware of the occult roots of their own belief systems, and instead look to logical conclusions of feminism being an historical error.

If you follow the trail long enough I think you will find that the only thing like a "solution" to this "problem" lies in catechizing youth in a consistent doctrine of sex before they grow too old, proud and familiar with justifying their own passions with pre-packaged ideology like many of us have throughout our lives. This doctrine of sex is as an ordering toward procreative ends (impregnation in the case of males, gestation in the case of females), and the conjugal act as having the intrinsic, divinely-ordained primary end of conception, rather than viewing conception as merely a natural consequence relating only to design in the case of humans actively attempted to conceive.
Completely agree with your last point.

So many of my tools over the years have stuck with their simple command line initiation rather than wrapping into GUIs or other alternatives. Being able quickly write “python [whatever you are doing]” is awesome.

The Linux and BSD cases actually turned out to be pretty similar. There were a handful of cases of literal copying but not to anything close to the degree claimed and pretty much trivial. (And SCO also made all sorts of claims around Linux taking knowledge, including negative know-how, and techniques from Unix that were completely ridiculous.)
I mean, those two things aren't mutually exclusive.

You can easily have the worst of both worlds, where somebody disables the autonomy to engage in some road rage, then re-enables it, but without driver awareness features (lots of videos of people doing this) so they can have a nap and not take over when the autonomy disengages.

So you can easily have all the disadvantages of autonomous cars and idiot reckless driving.

Only time we'll be free is if there's ever L4/L5 autonomous driving, which seems a long way off.

edit: even "full self-driving" in Tesla's are L3, since you need to be available to take over, driver awareness is enforced, etc.
How easy is it for them to turn their back on "Forgejo will always be Free and Open Source Software."?
I wonder if anybody here can correct my memory.

When Microsoft sold Xenix to SCO, I seem to recall that part of the deal was Microsoft agreeing to not compete in the Unix market. Today, Microsoft is embracing Linux with their WSL stuff and that certainly impacts the Unix market.

Maybe the 1997 agreement between the two companies ended Microsoft's exile from Unix-land or maybe when Caldera bought SCO's Unix business the Microsoft agreement didn't transfer?

And I realize that, unlike macOS, Linux isn't Unix but it does compete in that market.
Extreme labor inefficiency. Today Amazon's driver can deliver an order of magnitude more packages than a person with a wheel barrow could. There are 100,000+ Amazon drivers in the US. You'd need at least 1,000,000 people with wheel barrows.

If a system has bugs, is it fair to say it's not working?

Typically you just fix a bug, though of course some systems reach a point where a rewrite (either incremental or from scratch) is the only option. I see absolutely no evidence that we reached that point, all arguments are just emotional factoids. I also see no attempts for an incremental rewrite, all people want is to burn the system and hope that something good rises from the ashes.
