My first question is is your application suited for the cloud or are you just doing a lift and shift so you don't have to have on-prem equipment?

As some that does migrations, I'd talk to a couple of vendors, ask them questions and let "a pro" ask you questions -see if that makes you dig a little deeper, most customers have an idea of their end state but not necessarily the best end state. If you are going to go through the pain make sure where you end up is worth it.
Continents can rise and fall without changes in the quantity of liquid water on the surface. One must also consider the fact that the world was much warmer then, so things like Greenland, the Antarctic ice sheet, and glaciers did not exist. If all the ice covering Antarctica , Greenland, and in mountain glaciers around the world of today were to melt, sea level would rise about 70 meters (230 feet). The answer to your question is that a portion of this water turned into ice. Ice that is now turning back to liquid form thanks to climate change. Another factor is that water is also slowly disappearing into the Earth's crust. When the Russians dug 12 kilometers into the crust, they discovered that rocks at that depth were saturated with water: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_Superdeep_Borehole?useski...
Thanks for the very helpful and detailed reply!
They are an invaluable resource just don't get too caught up in trying to understand everything they present, they are introductions and about giving you the tools needed to pursue the study of the field, not about giving you a full education. They only take a night or two to read and the bibliographies are within the scope of the introduction they provide, they don't load you down with books that are beyond the knowledge of the sort who would be reading such a book.
I live in the US and have the same preference as far as cars go, but I literally cried happy man tears the day that I got my four-cylinder Honda bike (with a flat-plane crank) and listened to it as I wound it out in first gear. There's definitely room in this wonderful world for both :-)
Yes, there used to be Plan S by the EU, 'all research has to be open access' - which led to an explosion in publisher's prices as people were forced to pay them! Nature used to be Closed Access only, but once Plan S came around they added an OA option for about 10k in euros. Ridiculous.

The EU just announced they're changing that towards no cost open access mandates: https://www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-europe-infr...

> For the longest time, "Democracy" the political system was bandied about to be the primary precondition for economic progress.

I agree with you. I think that mindset has a fundamental misunderstanding of the root cause of economic prosperity.

Economic prosperity comes from liberty. Democracy and liberty are two very different things. For a long time, they were treated as roughly equivalent.

China figured out that economic liberty, coupled with state sponsored abusive labor conditions and few ecological restrictions, can effectively compete with "democracy" where people are able to vote to regulate labor markets.

In the face of this, Democracy is a weakness. After all, how can a Western economy that's voting itself (for example) four day work weeks and great work/life balance benefits compete with forced labor in the short term?

I think it competes well in the medium to long term, as economic systems that maximize liberty seem to mostly win.

This is just nonsense. What is "unpredictable" about the runtime? What is difficult about enabling X-Ray?

"All-serverless" is just as stupid an idea as "no-serverless."

Aside from lock-in, your "cons" are just the cons of anyone trying to build large-scale systems without knowing what they are doing. There is absolutely no way anyone who read the documentation would run into your cons of serverless.

Here's my theory: if you look at surveys, it does say a 10% chance or so of an extremely bad outcome.
BUT it says a ~20% chance of an extremely good outcome, and an 80% chance of at least a neutral one.

There's about as many varieties of libertarian socialism as there are libertarian socialists, but your guess is pretty close. The usual endgame would be the abolition of the state in favor of cooperatives, unions, and mutual aid networks, though a complete abolition of the state ain't really necessary for a society to start to look simultaneously libertarian and socialist in practice. The big historical example was Spain prior to the fascists winning the Spanish Civil War; contemporary examples include Rojava and the EZLN (though the latter tends to reject any particular label).

The thing most/all self-identified libertarian socialists have in common is the perception that capitalism and the state are, if not one and the same, heavily reliant on one another, to the point that abolishing one without abolishing the other leaves in place the material conditions that make both inevitable. It ain't enough to replace state agencies with private corporations, because those corporations will simply become the state - nor is it enough to replace corporations with state agencies, because the bureaucrats running those agencies will simply become the new bourgeoisie or outright aristocracy.
> Ok but what issues do you have with the argument itself / methodology?

Sorry-- I can't read every paper by every known crank and debunk it. It's an unattainable goal. I would have to pull all the data and analyze it again myself.

If you have an author who has committed great methodological errors in data analysis multiple times in the past and this is a documented fact, you stop taking that person seriously.

Here, it shares a lot of characteristics with papers he's written in the past-- possible censoring of data (picking one country, and a dubious date range for the comparison series) and ignoring other well known effects related to the COVID shutdowns (reduction in particulate emissions causing a pop in daily temperatures).
I stand corrected regarding Buzzfeed vs. Buzzfeed News.

The ability to imitate someone's tone (long a staple of satirical writing), or to fool a lot of unread people, no doubt represents a true achievement for LLMs. But people easily fool themselves and believe what they want to believe, so LLMs simply play into the limitations of human models and explanations for the world rather than representing a new form of conscious being.

I think we can see an analogy in craft production versus mass production. Today machines can produce (for example) furniture of very high quality, rivaling or exceeding the output of a craft carpenter or joiner. The mass-produced goods cost less to make and have good-enough quality, and can even sometimes fool people into thinking a skilled person made their table. That doesn't mean we should call those machines carpenters or conclude the machines possess the same skills. With LLMs we see mass production at scale come to writing and some other trades (law, customer support, etc.) that we like to think of as requiring actual skill. Maybe other trades such as programming will also fall to LLM mass production. But that happens because the jobs consisted mainly of rote and repetition in the first place, and require little creativity or intelligence to imitate.

I will support feminism when feminists protest against male only military conscription in Ukraine. Until then it's just one of "we only care about our own kind of people" movement like white supremacy or black lives matter. If you believe in sending men literally to their death while staying safe yourself, you should be at least willing to do some house work in return. Personally I think nobody should be forced to fight a war and everyone should be able to volunteer, and countries that can't find enough volunteers do not deserve to exist. Pretty sure there will be more men fighting in practice, but if that's by choice, it's not an injustice.
Using ror like that doesn't seem like decompression. Maybe it is just aligning the artwork.
I spent my Sunday afternoon reading about learning strategies and this one was interesting. In STEM there's a heavy emphasis on doing problem sets for homework, but in addition to that, comprehensive textbooks will have several worked-out examples in each chapter, and then at university, the TAs are supposed to do example sessions each week. Such practices would seem to track with the theory.

> Everyday political talk rejects the language of universality in favor of the idioms of affinity. To call a candidate or policy based or cringe, pilled or normie—terms without a fixed meaning even for those who invoke them—is to situate oneself in a particular group against an ill-defined mainstream.

so too does this apply to “elite”, but the essay uses it liberally and a fun exercise is to try and replace each occurrence with its “plain” equivalent.

> Obscurity impedes solidarity.

don’t reveal your answer to the above exercise. if we do, we’ll discover that we’re all reading slightly different details into the text, and that may put us in conflict. you and i can be in solidarity against the “elites” only because of our differences which this term serves to obscure.

> To write plainly (and read texts with the expectation of plainness) was to make information meaningful and persuasion possible.

persuasion is about selling an image. information serves only to constrain the image. rarely do they work hand-in-hand.

One thing that works for me is to have a consistent early to bed, early to rise routine 365 days irrespective of what the day looks like.

I think Agile workflow has a part to play in this. It embraces complexity and moving fast to build out buggy features, where every new bug becomes a new user story. It feels productive but it just creates more work than you need.
Tbh when compared with raytracing I couldn't tell if it was better when playing. Note that I could tell it was very different but I couldn't tell if it was "better".

When watching direct comparison videos path tracing was slightly better when someone pointed out more accurate lighting details but not in a way that was noticeable if someone didn't point it out.

What I found works for path tracing is objects that don't have strong textures or bump mapping. I've tried this when writing my own path tracer in a programming project (not cyberpunk) for simple monochrome spheres. Then in that case it makes it look very real, but in something as visually detailed as cyberpunk it's barely noticeable.

I also think the lighting in cyberpunk is too urban and neon. It's not something our eyes evolved to interprete with extreme fidelity so our brains cant really see the difference. I think the effect is much more noticeable in environments with fewer light sources and light sources that aren't neon. For this reason I suspect red dead redemption 2 would benefit much more from path tracing.

That's just my opinion. I have a 3090.
>but as far as I'm concerned battery life is also irrelevant, and power consumption only matters to the extent that it increases my power bill. I use laptops because they're easy to carry around when closed

I'm somewhat in the same boat, but I sometimes use mine when traveling (without being plugged in), but fairly rarely.

However, another thing I really like about having a laptop is that my current one, at least, is very very quiet. Years and years of having a noisy desktop PC with loud fans really made me hate fan noise. With a modern laptop, I can do normal computing tasks and almost never hear the fan (and when I do, it's hard to hear), and I don't have to build some custom, non-portable liquid-cooled machine to get that.
You're not alone. What doesn't get said enough about this topic is "it doesn't matter". The architecture and design, for the most part, doesn't matter. Because no matter what is chosen, there will be pitfalls. Failing to account for those pitfalls will lead to problems, and changing the design or architecture to avoid the pitfalls will just introduce new pitfalls.

IMHO, the right path is to first become educated about each design and its pitfalls, so that when the time comes, you can quickly pick a design, and move swiftly onto dealing with the pitfalls, because that's where the actual problems lie.

Among the maxims on Lord Naoshige's wall there was this one:

This is pretending that, as others have noted, Google haven't made a habit of locking out accounts for no reason and providing no path to recovery.

That's the point: Google wants to collect your digital life and control it. But they also don't want to deal with any requirements to ensure you can actually use or recover it expediently.

So it's not "if Google close up shop" it's "due to reasons we've (our AI decided too) ban your account. Don't bother contacting us, as there is no customer service".
At least you can switch to another email provider at any time. The domain is yours.
Some time ago I had this thought: The original (single) continent was round, and about the diameter of the moon. Since the moon was much closer to the earth, it's gravitational pull would give rise to a bulge (an earth "tide" if you will), which would be roundish and about the size of the moon's visible diameter.

I am definitely not a geologist, and this is probably un-provable... but, to me, it sure seemed like a plausible idea.

That’s a fair point; I hadn’t realized how bad certain brands could be. The last Samsung phone I owned was from about 10 years ago, and it worked just fine. I replaced it with a Google Pixel last year when the 3G networks started getting shut down, and it works great too.
Other commenters say it's nowhere close to what I'm looking for, btw.

And let me repeat that I am not looking for the old-school OS threads support. Almost all programming languages have that. It's nowhere nearly good enough.
In my opinion. No. Watch comparison videos as well, you can barely tell the difference.
Clojure is head and shoulders above other lisps. Watch Rich Hickey's Sermons From the Mount in the years following Clojure's release and you may never be the same again. At least that was my experience. David Nolen's Clojurescript videos are similarly riveting.

Clojure also has far more reach than any other lisp with implementations for JS, JVM, .Net and recently Dart/Flutter. It also has a library - libpython - for easily importing Python libraries.
Saw elsewhere you were on PC. I'm on a series x and it plays really well. I don't know how much time I've spent on it but it was way too much because I was getting back into a C++ project and played it whenever I had long compilations. I only had a couple of crashes and it was about 6 months ago too, so it might just depend on what systems they are fixing bugs for at a given time.

That being said, once you finish everything it really does feel empty. There's no repeatable content once the game is finished, unlike most other open world games. This is pretty unfortunate because I would sometimes just happen upon fun little notes and hiding spots. I'm sure there are tons of little details that will never be noticed because there's no drive to go out of your way and find them once all the other stuff is done.
I tried it out and I couldn't really figure a way to `atuin init` on Powershell, as it requires one of the supported shells as a parameter.

I've also seen a couple of PRs such as [1] that consider Windows support a dead-end as of 2021, so I assumed it to be a dead-end as well. Maybe this user is on WSL? That'd seemingly work as it can get bash/zsh or anything running there.

Safest to say the exact thing (or list of things) I reckon!

Technically "serverless" should mean "no server" which means "no process fielding network requests" i.e. "unable to accept inbound network requests" - so some kind of batch processing system, or scheduled lambdas :-)
I agree about high-level parallelism. Having done it every which way, from C to Python (bleh) to Rust to Java to Erlang: NodeJS is actually nice with throng, at least for a webserver. And the built-in async/await stuff is your greenthreading. Easy to avoid race conditions because you know the event loop stays in context until you hit an `await`.

>If you’re remote anyways, you won’t get the in person advantages so you might as well pay less.

You are still ignoring that a remote-in-country employee is different than a remote-out-of-country employee from a legal, HR & logistical perspective. Hiring someone in Kentucky is not the same lift as hiring someone in Poland or India. There's going to be extra expense and overhead to manage out-of-country employees & the logistics of operations between different countries. Many companies aren't setup to do this. You can't just look at the pay rate.

Additionally you can't just look at the pay rate of an in-office employee. In office requires a commitment to pay for the office, pay for the staff to manage the office, accept a reduced talent pool in some areas, and if you're in an area with a large talent pool, it's probably a high-cost-of-living area, so your rate will not just need to be "a little more", but "a lot more" to be competitive.
Common Lisp (CL) is not the entirety of the Lisp world. However, CL does have a lot of limitations given its 30-year old design.

1. The typing is vague, annoying and its weird half-assed existence to a CLOS is a constant source of trouble
2. Code-walking is not completely deterministic and is not implementation independent.
3. The environment is not part of the standard.

CL was written in a completely different time when there was money to be made selling various bespoke implementations, and therefore there was a big need to vagueness in the spec. Today this need is much less so: there's 1-2 big open source impl. and about 2-3 commercial vendors.

It's a recurring vignette where two Martians go around-- often carrying their own guidebook-- and mis-categorize Earth things:

> For young children, what's the developmental impact?

Kids get to practice talking about and describing what's silly about the behavior they see in the vignette. In the process, children usually end up properly categorizing various Earth objects, gaining valuable experience points which they will later exchange for increased attack and magic-conjuring abilities.

Additionally, the kids learn coping strategies to deal with the idea that creatures can teleport without warning to any location in the show and are never, ever noticed by any of the characters on the show. IIRC these characters scared the ever-living bejeezus out of a lot of kids.
