Scale to zero has always been my favorite feature of serverless compute. If there was a fast way to do it with VMs, I'd certainly consider it.
According to The World Economic Forum (WEF) speeding tickets in Finland are linked to your income.^1 This means that a speeding ticket is calculated as a percentage of your income, and so the fine will also scale with whatever you make.

“Godfather of AI” urged to warn about risks
You can't make it perfect. But you can make it better.

Put another way: For the tiny proportion of people who are wealthy enough to obscure their income or get most of it from capital gains, the fines don't currently matter financially, so if they end up getting off more easily it has minimal effect. They get unfair advantages now and still would if you indexed by taxable income. But the much larger portion who earn well above median yet not enough to obscure their income would get a fairer/stricter treatment.
It doesn't help that the size of SUVs and Pickup trucks have grown over the past 20 years. They take up more width and the length of truck beds are shrinking in place of more cabin space. I would love to find a truck that has a similar profile to a Chevy S10/GMC Sonoma but manufacturers are pushing bigger and bigger trucks to the market.
You're right that the language doesn't protect you here.

One easy way to prevent these sorts of errors is to always return default literals with errors (in the same spirit of "value == var" from c to prevent accidental assignment).

Sales tax isn't proportional.
It's also due to cost. At scale is cheaper to produce your own professors than buy it from a vendor.

Not to mention performance and energy consumption benefits.

The phone had it to begin with due to the low consumption and easy instructions set. Then the Moore's law did the rest and now they're powerful enough for data centers
I worked for 4 years intensively with RXJS. I love the concept, but it quickly becomes a mess in readability when trying to merge different data sources.
The props.children/slots issue is one of my biggest problems with angular. It’s really hard to use composition like you always do in react.

Another thing is, that angular components always wrap their template into a block element (like a div) in the DOM. So if you do some refactoring and split up one big component, the result in the DOM is different and your CSS may not work anymore. If you are using flexbox or grid, it may even be impossible to split the component.
Preventing a good parent from caring for thier child for an unrelated mistake should be somthing the courts take extreemly heavily.

Jepodizing a business that employees people might will be taken into account.
Another option for New York is that if you have too many civil violations you get banned from Broadway, Maddison Square Garden, and the Opera for the year.

This would have minimal impact on the poor, but would probably motivate the rich to avoid these civil fines.
Overall, like it's stated in the article, it would be a case-by-case choice what to use.
My experience tells me it's always a good idea to start with the monolith but I don't know much about PII to tell you your idea is over-engineered.
I feel there are better ways though.
Also because you don't need to use Lambda to not be on-prem EC2 is enough.
A fine example of whataboutism.

FWIW, both the country where I was born and the one where I live have chosen a simple approximation: Fines are set at "x typical daily earnings" and the court will estimate the equivalent in legal tender, jail time is set in days.

Did you miss what I said??

I am about as technical as it gets. If this is not for me, really, this is for such a tiny minority of people who are just very interested in finance, and in particular using cryptocoins, as to be completely out of reach for anybody else. Like every other crypto app I've seen so far.
They draw them in real time at 24 fps? Wow.
You’re right, of course.

How many historical nextdoors are you aware of? For me, none. But is that because they don’t exist or just that no record survived? Social media is secret society.
What does repo being on github have to do with copilot? Free copilot licenses for OSS?
All methods of decreasing driving are unduly burdensome on the poor.

That’s why I object to these policies:

They’re middle class and up people advocating that other people bear the burden for what they want done — often times, burdening the more productive members of society who perform critical jobs. If you actually thought it was important, you’d take unilateral action… instead of making “tragedy of the commons” excuses and demanding authoritarian impositions on lower classes.

That kind of entitlement by the bourgeoise is how we ended up with the worst governments in human history — and I’m sad to see us repeating it.
No.

For rich people it's trivial to hide their income: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-dollar_salary -- it would only make things worse for the middle class, which is the worst class of all: too rich to get any help from the government, too poor to hire lawyers.

So, you guys try to hit the rich guy, but you hit the middle class guy instead, who pays all the taxes. Good job!
> [0] Unless you implement a cpu on top of the fpga :)

You should revisit what "Turing complete" means. The whole idea is based on one architecture being able to perform the computations an other architecture can by implementing a sort of emulator of the other architecture.

So the fact that the FPGA can implement a CPU shows that the FPGA is Turing complete, there is no "unless" about it.

I don´t know either Swish or Contexts, but both looks like a window manager. Can you tell me, why do you need both?

At least the law isn't the law in the U.S., it defers to the Constitution, and that in turn to the sovereign (the People).
Gopher was better than www until the graphical web browser existed. The gui browser had one technical requirement that gopher did not. The gui browser required a node address on the network or ip address.

One could access the www from gopher. The gateway page for the www stated

Welcome to the World Wide Web. There is no top or bottom which is what distinguished it from gopher. That had a top of the tree and bottom of the tree of links.
I guess it depends on what you mean by "AWS tech advisers" ... I've had two different AWS recommended partners advise us to go to this stack, one of the partners even tried to explain that despite more than doubling in costs we would "make it up in faster development".

In most western countries these days the tax level effectively decreases with wealth, so no... they might not have contributed "disproportionately" already

> If your business invests in physical servers anticipating strong growth next year then later finds out actually we're going into a recession and those servers are no longer needed, then that's a sunk cost.

Yes, but that sunk cost is probably still lower than what you paid AWS for the option to scale up and down.
Yes, and it attracts just the wrong kind of dev/architects.
At a previous shop, we hired a cloud architect to drive our "cloud adoption".
He of course bet the farm on a set of new AWS services that were barely in version v0.9 to be the backbone of the system he architected.

It quickly became clear even he had no experience with the set of tools & services he had advocated, and the whole thing went off the rails slowly & surely.

Low & behold 100% of existing customers are still on the on-prem offering 2 years later, and if you throw in the new customers that were shoehorned onto the AWS offering, his team has captured 2% of customer use after 2 years of effort.
I would argue that the problem goes much deeper than for historians. By focusing on the most FUDed national/international news all day, people are collectively incensed all day long for no reason. Doesn’t matter that it won’t affect their daily lives, but they are forced to read it by having it shoved in their face…
> The only upsides of Angular are its "batteries included" approach

This basically trumps everything else though. Angular is likely going to have by far the lowest TCO for any projects with a 10+ year lifespan.

Like, sure, you need to watch 20 hours of Udemy videos to understand how to build an app, but that two weeks of work upfront is going to save you millions of dollars and multiple years of stress eating coffee pastries every morning.
It also settled a long standing lawsuit and a lot of cross licensing.
> I feel bad that there is always the request for potential applications for studies like this, and the scientists feel required to come up with something.

The request of “but what is the application for this” often comes from those outside the field who don't understand.

Sometimes it is the selfish human nature question “yeah, but why should I care?” with different wording to try to make it look like the asker cares about a wider community. Sometimes it is a genuine question: they are intrigued by the base idea and want to know more about where it might later develop.

Often there is already an application, or a potential application. In fact sometimes this is explicitly written into the paper, but people haven't bothered to read it (or didn't understand it) and are just reacting to a headline report. For instance studies on how cereals settle in transit and how they absorb available liquid, why the bigger parts end up at the top and so forth, are favourites of “silly research” lists but can have importance for the safe transport & storage of many other things that are in particulate or powder form. Some of this sort of work has fed into understanding a very real problem causing ships carrying such cargo to roll over and break and/or sink in choppy seas (endangering lives & the environment and, what commercial sponsors of such research care about, costing money).

> Can we just find out the answer in order to find out the answer?

We definitely should be able to, and thankfully some do.

There are a lot of results in maths over the centuries that were just curiosities at the time but then later became important to a larger problem sometimes quite unrelated to the original thought space.

Though even for things that may never find a real world use, the process itself will have helped train and/or the minds of the people looking at it so has value through that.
I am curious about a few syntactic details:

Why is the & (reference) argument convention a suffix? That seems inconsistent with Python’s *args and **kwargs, and the keyword conventions.

What is the difference between the “owned” and “consuming” conventions?

And why is the ^ (consume) operator postfix? Python doesn’t have any postfix operators, and it seems awkward wrt the ^ infix xor operator.
Why not self-host Forgejo or cgit? Or use Codeberg or SourceHut? There's no reason to eat from the Microsoft hand that his historically always came back to bite developers.
Copilot, Issues and Actions, all symptoms that GitHub is forging ahead and building features that are well thought out and well integrated.

Ironically, CI/CD and issues being well integrated were the reasons we switched to GitLab in the first place. But since then we stopped using issues.

CoPilot X will help write PR descriptions, some code review, etc. All those things are on top of just hosting the repo.
Because AI sounds cool maybe
You can produce multiple docker images from the same codebase quite easily. You can deploy and scale them separately. None of that requires separate repositories or expensive RPC instead of local function calls.

And some programming related stuff, but that very depends on my job.
I can't think of any project I've worked on where the main data base could be backed up and restored to a different database in "2 minutes"

The sarcasm was warranted.
This has repeatedly my been demonstrated to be false in real world tests. One bundled file performs way better, especially when you take tree shaking, minimization (which has performance implications even after load in terms of memory usage), and compression into account. A small change in one part of the code can result in lots of other code being removed from a library you use. Code splitting usually does a better job of achieving the (suspect) goal of making these incremental changes more performant since the chunks are chosen in order to optimize this vs files which are “chunked” along human organizational lines, which do not necessarily correlate highly with diffs.

If browsers hadn’t removed the shared cache for script resources, there might be an argument here. But they did, putting each domain its own cache to avoid fingerprinting, so even that goes out the window.

On the one hand people worry about the massive node_modules folder in the cases where it doesn't matter (when it's just files on disk in a local node app), and on the other hand, we create things like import maps that will literally take this dependency graph and translate it one-to-one to a higher latency HTTP version, where it absolutely will be a problem.
Personally I would like to separate business and private me. It is inexplicable to me to not prefer the freedom of anonymity for anything private.

Sure, for business needs that might be adequate, but I don't use Discord for anything professional. Naturally I wouldn't want either my domain or that of my business associated with my Discord account. On the contrary, if there was an association, it would induce a moderate to heavy panic. I don't even do that for private development that I publish.

An ephemeral ID also provides many advantages, especially in these time where everyone and their dog wants to erect walls on the net. I don't want a safe net®. A safe net is for people that are scared. People that are scared are scary. Far more than the average scammer and an associated ID would even expose you to more dangerous ID theft just because you know are a more interesting target.
There's also developer push from two sides; developers want to do microservices because it gives them gratification (new problems to solve! new architectures! Rewrite!), and employers want to attract developers (we do microservices! Blockchain! IoT!). So much in software development these days is hype and self-gratification.
You're thinking different "rich".

When poor people talk about "taking from the rich", they typically mean (well) salaried people. Their bosses, managers, higher up employees… folks they personally know, just with more income.

The truly wealthy you describe are of course unaffected. But they're also off the radar for most – too far removed from their daily experience. And difficult to fleece for the state. So the sacrificial goat always ends up being the middle class.
Unless your money doesn't come from your "salary", and you declare "the salary" to be $1 a year. Then you pay nothing for double parking even if you're firthy rich.
Agree, but I was talking about the cost of parking including the fines.
Won't go in too much detail since I don't want to dox myself, but I currently work at Samsung doing embedded IoT stuff. As a new-comer graduated from a top college, the salary is very competitive, and so are the year-on-year increments (even now, with the global economic downturn).
I think average people would thing that they would be too high for the crime.

Minimum day fine for someone without income is 6€. Now parking fine is I think depending locations is 20-80€.

So you tell that this incomeless person parked the car. And we have set it at 5 day fines so 30€ at low end. On other hand day fine for median earner is around 35 €. Which would mean 180€ parkin fine.

Most would think that to be excessive.
Presumably they are talking about giving poor people money out of a different bucket, so it isn't "just" going back through the auction, the people that receive it have the opportunity to allocate it to their needs and desires.
Fitness? It's called GymRunOps in 2023.
Airbnb remove bad reviews. They state they break guidelines but won’t say which ones (former superhost here).
Yes, but the problem with the async pipe is that you're pulling logic into the template.
I've been using Stable Diffusion to generate cover images for the music I release & produce for others. It's a massive time saver compared to comping together the release art using image editing software, and a lot cheaper than working with artists, which just doesn't make sense financially as an independent musician.

It's a little bit difficult to get what you want out of the models, but I find them very useful! And while the output resolution might be quite low, things are improving & AI upscaling also helps a lot.
Most companies will pay way more for the engineers maintaining their on-premises infrastructure than they would for AWS. On-premises still makes sense when you reach a certain scale. When you reach a certain scale.
Incarceration by itself is poorly correlated to the goal of reducing overall crime and reducing recidivism. Putting people in prison should be a last resort, instead of the first resort that the US and some other countries treat it as.

Regarding jail time for the wealthy, you're still thinking in simple numbers instead of means-tested comparisons. A more-wealthy person and a less-wealthy person that go to jail for 30 days both are physically restricted for 8% of a year. If you pretend that wealthy people earn the same way that less-wealthy people do (they don't), then both are naievely losing 8% of their income-earning time for that year.

It's still not fair, mind you—the wealthy person likely makes much or most of their money from diversified income streams that are less succeptable to temporary incarceration than the more-likely single salary-based income of a less-wealthy person.

Regarding the question of using children as leverage, this is addressed more intricately than I'll summarize here in contemporary cases e.g. with Elizabeth Holmes and the allegation that she, her partner and legal team have tried to lean on her having children as a way to attempt avoiding incarceration.
I wish to propose a solution: A tax when you wish to add someone to your block list. $1 per person per door per year. Madison Square Garden is a popular spot and so serves lots of people and so has lots of doors so that business should, I think justifiably, pay more to block people than a single door hardware store.

I think that this might be a decent solution because it is a modern analog of blocking people using low-tech methods: blocking people using human memory is costly and that cost is the natural means of limiting abuse and letting the person remain a member of society.
> For example, "printf" in C can fail, but I have not seen many programs checking its return code!

Okay, I add

if (printf(...) < 0) {
// TODO: Handle error
}

around the printf call. Now what? How do I handle the error? In most realistic scenarios I can imagine I'd either just ignore it and keep going, or print an error and abort (but what if printing an error fails too? Oh no...), or I'll never actually even get the chance to handle the error because my program will get killed by a SIGPIPE.

Seriously, if the printf fails then (barring the malformed format string) that means that the underlying device lost its ability to output data and this ability is most likely not coming back, and your program generally can't do anything with it, or even know about something to do: the functions from the FILE*-family abstract the underlying devices extremely well.
Hi There. What is meant by data engineering? Is this databases? Data warehousing/lakes? Preparing data for ML? ML models? Other ETL? Data transport?

Also could these be combined with e.g. rustler, having broadway in elixir to do the pipelining while rust NIF does the computationally intensive /cpu bound parts?

Local news decline, where? Our local news agencies are pushing news every day, all the time.

It's not the major news outlets' fault that local news can't be bothered to have decent websites/apps and actually maintain their archives.
Of course not. It will help millions of small companies to write scripts so they won't need AWS anymore.
Would you consider making a pay-per-search model for the occasional users?

This way one search is maybe $0,05 or whatever, but at least one can use KAGI without signing up for an account.

That is a can of worms. What is the operational definition of Rich?

- Networth?
- Income?
- Net Taxable Income?

Instead, it can be an escalating penalty that is based on repeat offences; increasing fines for repeat offences, culiminating in something like losing driving privileges, impounding of the vehicle, permanent loss of driving privileges etc.,
I think using "Monolith" for what they ended up with is badly chosen. Basically they just made a service less granular (or less micro, if you will).
Ah. I was thinking that the encoding machines were not bandwidth limited but rather cpu limited as they were doing expensive encoding algorithms. So I was thinking the streams were streaming out at less than real time. I figured this was better than the dual/multi encode method I think they are now relying upon when all the detection code doesn’t fit on the same machine as the encoder.
First, that's gross profit, which doesn't include the cost of paying the employees that work in the store, or the cost of paying "mom and pop" for the work they put in, or the cost for rent, electricity, heating, garbage collection, insurance, etc.

Second, judging by what little I can see without paid access, the "50% gross margin" refers to "health and beauty care products", not to all products sold by small shops in general.
The downside is that the entire depth of the "syntactical stack" has to be taken into consideration over the whole range of the expression's length. Those walls of openings and closings at the beginning and end... Those don't really serve any purpose besides creating pressure to come up with names for intermediates. When those names are good they are helpful, but that's not a given. Those named intermediates lurk in the scope because you never know if they might be use-and-forget or not (well, unless the code happens to be rust)

The strict flat-binding left to right chains of the dot and friends allow for a nicely streamlined "intra-expression scope" in the mind while reading. To me this feels like a lot of brain capacity getting freed for more important things. King of that hill is the "kotlin let" which allows just about everything to get converted into left-to-right. I miss that in every other language.
