It starts that way, with a mark and sweep collector (think Java CMS or the GC of Go). But some applications like games or Facebook are monsters so the GC was changed to a copy collector which has a better throughput, avoid fragmentation at the cost of using more memory.

Also the code is not just AOTed, Android is using profile guided AOT. After several days of usage, the code is AOTed with the profile collected from previous runs.

> How is the coup narrative so pervasive?

Because the fairly explicit goal was an autocoup.

> There was no institutional support

False.

> nobody got killed except for a rioter,

Even a successful coup is possible with no one getting killed;

> they all cleared out promptly by curfew

Because the coup attempt had already failed.

> By all indications it was a riot and a pretty mild one at that given the previous summer. How is that a coup?

“Coup” is not defined by intensity but by objective. The overtly intent was to use intimidation and/or violence against government officials to coerce a rejection of the electoral votes from sufficient states to allow the sitting President to extend his term nothwithstanding having been defeated in the election, at the instigation of the sitting President. It is a textbook autocoup attempt by its goals and ultimate instigation, which failed because the rioters were held back long enough for members of Congress to escape, but not by a wide margin.

Was it a hastily conceived, poorly coordinated, amateurish autocoup attempt? Yes, absolutely. Does that reduce its severity as a crime? No, no it doesn’t.

> I don't get how any honest assessment takes the actions by the partisans in DC as a coup.

It was a coup attempt, specifically an attempted autocoup. It wasn't a coup, because it failed.

> At LEAST the other riots were coups

No, none of those were coups, or even coup attempts. (The “Autonomous Zone” might be viewed as a hyperlocalized secession attempt, but that’s a distinct thing from a coup, seeking to separate territory from the control of an established government, not unlawfully take or extend control of said government.)
I've only been in situations where pay-cuts were offered a couple of times. In both cases equity was offered. In the more recent case, equity was offered with instant vesting, and there was a commitment to repay the deducted pay in full after the situation (short-term cache flow issues due to delays with fundraising) had ended.

The 2nd case was obviously a better deal, the only risk to me was that the fundraising would fail completely. If they're not offering you any kind of upside, you need to push back.
Thank you. I'm not bothered about the company, though I do like the employees and the work. I'm trying to find the best way forward mid-long term for me. The company won't think twice about letting me go. I have options for jobs that I am reasonably confident about. They're becoming more attractive over time.

Yes, how else would they push their Kotlin agenda, if modern Java was given the same access.

I'm actually dealing with this right now. I have a previous-FAANG new hire into my organization and when they came for their drug test they started complaining and "providing feedback" about the package they signed (pay, benefits, WFH policies, etc.) to the poor recruiting person who was just performing the test.

If that attitude persists, it doesn't matter how good they are, their toxicity will override that skill and they'll be out before long.

I'm saying this as someone who came here from FAANG companies and put in a lot of personal effort to not become the FAANG brat.
Again no, the government accepts loans to private citizens as collateral in these loans.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Cops already cover for each other's illegalities today when the worst punishment they seem to be getting is paid leave. How much more would they do when a job is on the line?
The company was entirely focused at what turned out to be a technological dead end, so the business did not improve much in the short term. I don’t know what happened much later, though, as I later quit that job for unrelated reasons, but the company seems to still exist, and they seem to have pivoted to other products.
Actually this is not accurate and somewhat bad advice. A normal bicycle frame is designed for... normal use.

No need for ebikes but child seats should be used on reenforced frames such as what the Dutch call "Moederfiets", you can also use a 'Transportfiets' frame.

You are adding an extra 5 Kg to your front steering tube and another 20 kilos to your back cargo loader. That is not what most frames were designed for.

Secondly things like double leg kickstands and steering stem lock are really important to load kids in and out of seats safely, which again don't exist in 'normal' bikes.

My point is you don't need an ebike but you should definitely not be using an off the shelf thin frame to carry kids around everyday.
I've never seen a union contract that didn't have a clear path to firing someone. I've worked in a union and in HR labor relations. My experience is that 'hard to fire' stories usually boil down managers not understanding the union contract, not enforcing the union contract until its too late, or wanting to enforce the union contract differently based on the employee.
It's optional, so if the need you identified exists it will be implemented. Its essential selling-point is compactness, so being the target, the path of least resistance should be optionally allowing the text-form, not building around it.

Did you take into account the different RAM architecture? Sure you can get bigger RAM, but that’s not nearly the same as what the M series offers (and it shows on benchmarks) - you might be better off with a 16GB MacBook, than a 32GB other laptop. Oh, and it’s not like this form factor/higher quality displays, etc would be cheap by other manufacturers.
> If the CIA/State Dept hadn't been involved then and wasn't now treating this as a proxy war, then you would be right to think it all started when Putin rolled tanks into Crimea with no provocation. But we know that isn't what happened and we know the US was involved back then and is funding and arming Ukraine now in a proxy fight against Russia, and since we know all this we can't just blithely claim the war started the day Putin rolled into Crimea.

Who are "we"? Links, please! All I know that bunch of my well-off middle class friends, coworkers, acquaintances participated. They are still waiting for CIA to send them the paychecks BTW. So, to me it looked very much like a _revolution_, but obviously random Fox news fan from US knows better...

> Putin didn't just decide one day to invade, whether you call it a revolution or a coup, the fact is the democratically elected government of Ukraine had just been overthrown, destabilizing the region and putting millions of Russians in harms way.

Harms way? Oh, I was waiting for those bloodthirsty russian-killing Ukrainian nazis to come in! (I'm a _russian-speaking Ukrainian_ BTW)

> Now if you want to make the case that was a shitty justification for an invasion, ok - but that is a different conversation. I would argue it was at least as justified as our invasion of Iraq, Syria etc.

So not justified at all?!

> Crimeans voted to become part of Russia after they saw their democratically elected government overthrown in 2014 though, you keep ignoring that part. You ask me why I don't just take your word for it since you were there, but what about the opinions of countless Crimeans who voted to break away from what they saw as a newly installed western-backed puppet government?

What about them? Crimea was de facto part of Russia for almost 8 years before Russia (re)invaded and it didn't look like the situation was going to change any time soon.

> And that's to say nothing about the people on Donetsk and Luhansk who also wanted nothing to do with what they saw as an illegitimate government that had just overthrown a democratically elected one, and they've had to deal with periodic shelling since then and the government trying to outlaw anything related to their heritage such as their language, their church their media outlets etc.

> They chose to cut salaries rather than cut the office rent and catered lunch/snack expenses

Real-estate is surprisingly hard to get rid of. Depending on the size they might be stuck with a multi-year lease. Cutting snacks and lunch doesn't substantially change the equation.

That said, I'd start looking for another job. Layoffs AND a paycut for those that remain doesn't fit well. Might as well layoff more people and keep the others "happy".
Nothing beats experimentation when you really need to find out for yourself and documentation is not ideal to begin with.

> And T-bonds are the riskiest that those regulations allow for.

From finance podcasts I have learned that the most important bit may have been that the Basel capital requirement for T-bonds is zero. (bonus citation)[1]. From a repayment risk perspective, that makes sense. From an FDIC puts your bank in receivership perspective, it's kind of a moral hazard.

> Its clear that there will be a bank that's too stupid to figure out and hedge its own risks here on out.

Everyone says hedge risks but that costs money that will likely be equal to or in excess of the entire "go long on interest rate risk" strategy profit.

Show HN: Grammatical – A CLI spelling and grammar corrector using ChatGPT
There are so many people who are long FRC because they like the service or want the bank to survive, but the only thing that matters for valuing a bank stock is the deposits and the revenue they can make off of them.

Based on the news from the last several weeks, it's clear that the uninsured deposits have fled First Republic. The hole is being plugged temporarily by the consortium of banks but that will only be temporary. The next disclosure date will make it clear that FRC is not worth anything close to what it was previously.

Buying the common stock is a huge bet that First Republic can bounce back to what it was prior to this crisis, but that's looking extremely unlikely.

It takes a long time for new trends to percolate through the management class. I had a gruff old engineer at an early job who used to joke that one of the executives must have gone in for a dentist appointment and read the 5 year old tech magazines in the waiting room, because we have a new initiative to start doing something that other people are already stopping.
One year is a long time. Did they give raises at that point too?
It is not exactly the nominal costs of having children, but the whole package. For example, now that it is completely within a couple's control to have or not have children the decision to have children might go like

1) will we be secure in our housing, at a certain minimum sq ft per person?

2) will we be secure in our access to healthcare (I guess this is a US concern)?

3) will we be living in an acceptable neighborhood with access to acceptable schools?

4) will we be living in an region experiencing economic growth, or at least not economic decline, so as to reduce the probability of becoming destitute due to job loss, etc?

5) will we have friends/family nearby to help with children in case of emergencies (a problem for many who move away from economically declining areas to economically growing areas)?

All of these are not a concern if you choose to not have children. At least you will be able to spend a coupe hours watching TV or browsing on your phone, but you will not be stressed out trying to make ends meet while also trying to meet the expected quality of life you want for your children.

>Poor people, religious groups (Mormons, Muslims, etc.), and immigrants who come to western countries all seem to have no problems having children.

There are a few tribes that have women who do not believe in (or have access to) birth control or do not worry as much about the future, or they have different expectations of quality of life for their kids. But outside these specific examples, my armchair analysis seems to indicate that most women with independence start thinking about various tradeoffs in life, which can make having children (or as many children) seem not worth it.

>Even the Koreans mentioned in the article have huge families when moving overseas.

I do not see this mentioned in the article.

My thinking is that the visual and tracking ads are often one and the same. Much tracking is invisible and many ads are well-behaved, but I would say most visual ads are tracking ads also.

For me, as much as I care about tracking and stuff, it's been really nice not seeing basically any ads on my web experience for the last 10 years, so I think really I just wanted to attempt to 'end' the cat and mouse game. At least for a while.
Which is one reason why the IAEA introduced a new symbol for use on interior components of radioactive sources:

https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/new-symbol-launched-war...

Even if you don't know what the radiation trefoil means (a lot of people interpret it as a flower or a fan), the added message of "death, run away" is pretty clear. And, unlike the existing radiation symbol, this one is reserved for use in places that most people should never see (like inside radiation therapy devices), so there's little risk of people becoming accustomed to seeing it.

I know who Avi Loeb is and his previous work in this area. But this paper is very explicitly not about meteorites or objects seen by advanced telescopes, it is exactly about the fast blurs on aircraft sensors.

Here is a piece from the conclusion:

> For example, one of the most common sets of data
within the military holdings comes from FLIR (forward looking infrared) pods. These sensors provide an accurate
resolved image of relative thermal measurements across the scene. Typical UAP sightings are too far away to get a highly resolved image of the object and determination of the object’s motion is limited by the lack of range data.

Not to mention, 'Oumuamua was emphatically not a UAP, it was a pretty-well-identified spatial object. UAP in fact refers exclusively to sightings that are not even clearly known to be "objects" at all, hence the move away from "UFO".
> The alternatives may include a capital raise, the sources said, which could dilute current shareholders. A sale of the bank is also a possibility.

This is why we need to stay very very strong on the "no help for shareholders" policy when banks fail. The potential for moral hazard is extreme otherwise.

What is your take on that, what do you think?
Yes, they wiped out these CoCo (Contingent Convertable) bonds, which are floated to provide money to provide a "capital cushion" in the case of stress. As bonds they're definitely weird, because (in this case) they are effectively subordinate to equity. This wipeout may make it difficult to issue any more AT1s, which removes another barrier created in 2008 that was supposed to prevent public bailouts. I am a bit surprised they didn't just convert an payout at the fairly cheap stock price, which it sounds like other regulators are saying they will do?

Well we pay them to do it, don't stop them from doing it, and almost never impose consequences for doing it. In a real practical way I think that makes it their job.

It’s common beginner gamedev thinking that making things more realistic makes them better. It’s only fun if it’s fun. Realistic is usually != fun. Maximizing the core fun element, taking away everything else, is a good way to make a fun game.

Realistic skydiving game: Start! Drive your civic to the DZ. Oh no there’s traffic! Wait for plane. Get in plane. Take 20 minutes to fly to altitude. Fall for 1 minute. There are no obstacles, nothing around you so you don’t die. Land. Wait to get picked up, take 1 hr to repack your parachute. Talk to your friends about how cool it was.

Fun skydiving game: Start! Jump out of airplane immediately. Skydive for 15 minutes. Surf on the wing of a plane. Avoid obstacles. Fly around buildings. Try to land in a swimming pool on the side of a mountain. Land. Parachute repacks automatically. You’re back in the air automatically.
