I agree with your conclusion but want to add that switching from Julia may not make sense either.

According to these benchmarks: https://h2oai.github.io/db-benchmark/, DF.jl is the fastest library for some things, data.table for others, polars for others. Which is fastest depends on the query and whether it takes advantage of the features/properties of each.

For what it's worth, data.table is my favourite to use and I believe it has the nicest ergonomics of the three I spoke about.
I made the mistake of moving for a role back in 2018. Money was super good but it was to a location I wouldn't want to be if the role wasn't there. Literally 45 days after we completed the move they decided to eliminate the role entirely. Between the move out and the move back the cost was something like $25K and they didn't provide anything to offset it. Never again.
For people who have never lived in Atlanta, the booting situation is ridiculous there. You can get booted even if you were parked in a spot legitimately - they’re over eager.

Police don’t care. Reading this article made me happy.
It makes sense if it's the case. There's been more centralization around major urban areas and there's generally more acceptance of distributed teams whether or not employees are actually sitting in a home office or not. More households are two income. Put those all together and they both increase the friction of relocating and decreasing the imperative to do so in order to take a new job.

I don’t think what you’re saying and what GP is saying are incompatible. Many people choose to work exclusively remotely so they can live where they want; those who want top wages, or who are in a non-remote-compatible field tend to prefer the big city with the jobs available in such.

I’d also like the point out:

> Everyone in my area (hour outside a major city) is basically the same

If you live only an hour outside a major city, you’re still living in the metropolitan region of a big city.
Plenty of companies do cover relocation expenses. In fact defense contractors who spent decades dodging taxes by moving facilities to bumfuck nowhere rural areas are so desperate they've been ponying up large signing bonuses on top. The problem is many of the companies complaining nobody wants to relocate is because they are located somewhere that's a career deadend. They may be the only employer in the area or there's barely more. The cost of living may also be lower but the quality of life may not be so great too.

Boomers put up with this shit. Every other generation is actually prioritizing quality of life long term.

Constantly relocating generally isn't fun, even if it's paid for.
It may be a societal net good to have both parents in the workforce, but that doesn't make it wrong to acknowledge the downsides.

Whether or not they got it all technically right, I expect them to stand by their product and make things right eventually, at least moreso than the typical hardware vendor. I've personally had several very positive experiences with their customer support department.
The special thing about architecture is that it imposes on others. You can't not see a building. So I agree with the conclusion but not the reasoning. It's not users vs creators, it's the public who are not the users that get harmed by ugly buildings, even if those buildings are private and desired by those who pay for them. (The government commissioning ugly public buildings is a problem with the government, not the architects)

Meanwhile, anything on the internet you're reading/watching/listening to is by your choice.
No, not at all. A landlord has property rights and a tenant has a human right to shelter -- how those rights are balanced is the government's job. If a landlord doesn't wish to obey the UK's minimum rights afforded to a tenant, he is free to sell his property in the UK and buy somewhere else.
I would absolutely say that having the means to complain does not inherently give you the right to complain.

Right is earned through investment.

A creator invests a substantial amount of time and effort into something.

A complainer can invest no time or effort into something.

And specific to the gaming community, there's a distinction between investing consumption time (e.g. playing) and creation time (e.g. modding or building).

I'd allow that playing confers substantial rights ("I've played this game over 1,000 hours and I think..."), but those rights should never be confused with creator rights.

Which is what makes amateur game criticism so toxic to me ("I can't do what you do, nor have any interest in investing the effort, but let me tell you how to spend your time to do what I want").

Especially in the performance-limited era of Half Life, most gamers didn't know a damn thing about the boundary of the possible.
Stop listening to podcasts.

Enjoy the quiet.

I use to fill up my day with listening to podcasts during all non-work time (e.g. driving in the car, exercising, even showering).

It overloads your brain if it's having to process info during every waking moment.

You brain just needs quiet time to think, relax and explore.

I'm way more relaxed, creative and find unique solutions to problems now, than before.
Just make it possible to display the list of hw changes.
To me this looks like a great opportunity window for devs who care about this stuff.

In the future we will have opportunities to ship 10-1000x faster code than the baseline competition, just by understanding the tech stack, the codebase and knowing what is not needed, and that will be an immensely competitive advantage pushing the value of such devs through the roof in the markets that value it.

If you thought no-code app builders were producing slow stuff, wait until software purely developed by AI starts to hit the shelves.
It’s also more about not wanting to pay the smarmy pieces of shit who booted you than just the price. This way you feel like you’re hurting them.
Do you live in London? I live just over an hour outside and most people I know own a house or flat. You buy a 2 bedroom flat here for 150k. Not denying there is a problem, just surprised you’re finding it so hard as a well paid professional
Oh wow, my partner and I are planning a trip to the Netherlands for later this summer and this was one of the top places we wanted to visit. I'm glad to hear it comes so highly recommended from someone local!
That is an almost accurate interpretation. They knew for sure the state of things and were not surprised by the missing documents - this was proven during the pre-trial.

I can only speculate as to why they did it, but I am pretty sure that it was to get the whole process started because some of the heirs were in poor health and they needed to sign the contract sooner rather than later, otherwise they would have entered in a potential loop of heirs dying and having to find the heirs of the heir and so on. So they said, let's start this thing now to minimize that risk and work on the rest of the documents later. From this point of view, they were right, as two people died in the months that followed.

I am also sure that they've hidden the fact because they knew that in this situation, it would have been nearly impossible to find a buyer willing to take part in the risk.

You are right with your remarks about experienced buyers. All in all, I have almost 0 regrets about the whole thing, I learned a lot of stuff in the meantime and got the house eventually

This is how humans treat nature without mindfulness. I suppose it should not be a surprise when we treat each other as we do nature. As humans are also part of nature.

It's kinda down on the list of prios but "I can not in good conscience have children grow up in this world where I see only problems and no solutions." is definitely on it, and you can call me overly pessimistic, but not sure how this has anything with dignity.

There have been reports of people now running Tears of the Kingdom at 4k/60 fps. Of course, that's on a PC.

Here's one article talking about it : https://www.dsogaming.com/news/nintendo-switch-emulator-yuzu...
My girlfriend's phone is stollen and last location is in China. I'm sure they are selling the parts and the motherboard is useless. If those parts wouldn't work with other phones this theft would be less incentivized.

Serial lock is a good thing if the owner had the option to unlock their phone's parts on Apple's website to be usable for repairs etc.
Pretty much. I moved to where the jobs are. If you want to hire me, move your office here.

What distinguishes real reviews from fake reviews?
Some buildings were burned down in riots but not whole cities. What people haven’t noticed is that this phenomenon has largely run its course. When Tyre Nichols was killed by the police in Memphis this year the police immediately fired the offending officers and… no riots!

Many places have gotten rougher, there is the visible disorder in San Francisco but even the small city of Ithaca, NY has seen a large increase in aggressive panhandling. You can plot opioid overdoses on the map and it looks like a pattern of bullets aimed at the needle exchange. People used to think the old African-American neighborhood downtown was “dangerous” (it wasn’t) but rents have gone up, the area has gentrified, and many of the former residents have relocated to smaller towns in the area. Today people are terrified of the large homeless colony by the inlet and the accompanying shopping cart graveyard.

The pedestrian mall downtown for years was decimated by a construction project that went overtime like the construction of a nuclear reactor, then the pandemic hit. It has been bouncing back and is even starting to get more diverse businesses (it just got a clothing store after years without one, a restaurant moved into the site McDonalds vacated 25 years ago, …) but boy there are a lot of head shops that look more lurid then head shops every looked. (You are dealing with bro overdose when you have a strain of weed called “AK-47”.). I never thought I’d see the day when the mayor, the governor, and the head of the business improvement district would hail the opening of a cannabis dispensary as a strategy for economic development.

My guess is that most cities have people telling a similar story today.
>including the "can't unreasonably refuse animals"

That's not true. They can refuse your pets with a reason.

> that you mentioned in maligned in another comment

How was that "maligned"?

> I am much happier as a renter here in Germany than I was in the UK however.

You're happy now, but you might not be when you'll retire and earning much less and having to pay market rates on rent. Will your pension cover that?

Owning your own home can shield you from old age poverty.

>you don't have a white name

There's no such thing as a "white name". White people come from so many countries each with completely different sounding names.

Funny, how we focus on landlords being against against pets but not focusing on landlords discriminating non whites which is an objectively much worse problem.
I wonder how that would play out in court. Is it a valid defence to say that you responded a few months late because your local jurisdiction uses DD-MM-YYYY?

Working at a well known big tech company that recently mandated a return to office.

Despite them playing “hardball” with RTO, the fact is that our teams are already distributed and it’s telling that they aren’t mandating we all move to be colocated. I’ll begrudgingly try to commute in a few days of the week to work remotely in the local office, but if management tells me to move coasts I’m out. I’ve got options here.
One thing I find harder about podman is auto start containers. They should make that easier.
I once heard an anecdote that during the industrial revolution in the UK, "mills" were build out in the country where hydropower was available and the mill owners would also build homes to sell to workers. When recession hit and the mills downscaled, the workers were forced to sell at loss in order to relocate -- and the mill owners could resell the homes at profit when business picked back up.

What a clueless article. Almost every new lasting technology in history has at one point labeled criminal or potentially destructive to mankind. From cassette and VHS tapes, to radio, computers and the Internet,everything at some point was considered for regulation or deemed irrelevant.

Humans learn by "theft". We learn language by observing word patterns created by others (books, speeches, TV shows) and correlating them to outcomes. While ChatGPT doesn't yet display human-like intelligence, it's clear to me that it is taking a step in the direction of how the human brain actually learns.

More complexity, more chance of problems.

For example, my dad used to use Androids. Without fail, he would get malware on them, he simply could not resist bypassing the security prompt to click on something he wanted to click on. Or maybe he does not understand English, or the concept of malware enough to properly heed the security warning pop up.

With iPhone, it’s not possible, so there is no worry, and no malware. Same with the hardware changes. People like my dad, or my wife, or even me who have very little interest in technology simply want to trust their device. And this device is literally the key to their life, their financials, their personal data.

All I know is my life has been made much easier by slinging Apple devices at people in my family that they simply do not have a way to mess up.
I prefer a prompt asking ChatGPT to provide the most surprising, statistically unlikely responses it is capable of producing. I say Good morning! And the alternative ego replies: "Whispering mushrooms dance under crystalline rainbows while playing chess with gravity-defying elephants." Beautifully silly.
You haven’t said what the GPT in your domain name means. Is it actually a reference to AI or is it completely unrelated?

Big cities don't work for everyone, it's exhausting. As an older man I have different requirements.
Or that instead of sitting at your computer for another 4 hours, once you're done with your work, you're done. Yes, you could warm the seat for another couple of hours once you've finished your actual work. You could do that. On the other hand, Tears of the Kingdom just came out.
The Kraków Pinball Museum in Poland is a good one - pay a small fee to enter and their whole collection of pinball machines are on free play mode. Lots of arcade machines too, and beer of course.
Interesting - I predict the opposite effect. Ultimately the use of AI for programming is still a human-computer interface, and both sides will need a coordinate system to communicate, which is the framework. I mean, until we get super AGI in which case we can tell it "make me the perfect website" and it does. However I don't worry about that case because its equally likely it will tell us "go to work at the chip factory or die." The in-between case is to tell an AI "make a controller" or "make a react component" and things like that. And ChatGPT is very good at doing things like that.
Of course. I have been talking about building small projects mostly for yourself. If you build your own house in a weird way, knock yourself out (especially if there is no family).

This is about expectations. Good architecture serves many users. Good films serve many viewers. Good software ...

You get the point. And it is always better if you can serve two target audiences at once instead of one – IF you can do it without compromising.

But some software doesn't want or even need to serve all users. Take vim for example. For most people it would be a horrible experience to use it and they could criticise it for a ton of things. But what value is there in this cricism as they don't understand how vim is intended to be used? Their cirticism comes from a true place, but it still isn't worth a lot, because if you followed it to the end you would end up with something like notepad.exe or MS Word and loosing everything that makes vim special and interesting.

So if anything, what I say here is: good criticism is critcicism by people who see the same thing in your thing as you do, as their vision likely aligns with yours. If you are painting impressionist pictures for example, the criticism "it could look more photorealistic" by some guy is utterly useless, while the criticism "I think you should rely less on simple complementary color combinations" by someone who understands impressionism might be really helpful. The photorealism guy just tells you that there are people looking for this out there, but as you already know and/or actively decided against it, there is no use in this.
I wouldn't expect them to be that precise, especially when they misspell their client's name as OPENAL
Progression of status pages, from experience at a large cloud provider...

Stage 1: Status is manually set. There may be various metrics around what requires an update, and there may be one or more layers of approval needed.

Problems: Delayed or missed updates. Customers complain that you're not being honest about outages.

Stage 2: Status is automatically set based on the outcome of some monitoring check or functional test.

Problems: Any issue with the system that performs the "up or not?" source of truth test can result in a status change regardless of whether an actual problem exists. "Override automatic status updates" becomes one of the first steps performed during incident response, turning this into "status is manually set, but with extra steps". Customers complain that you're not being honest about outages and latency still sucks.

Stage 3: Status is automatically set based on a consensus of results from tests run from multiple points scattered across the public internet.

Problems: You now have a network of remote nodes to maintain yourself or pay someone else to maintain. The more reliable you want this monitoring to be, the more you need to spend. The cost justification discussions in an enterprise get harder as that cost rises. Meanwhile, many customers continue to say you're not being honest because they can't tell the difference between a local issue and an actual outage. Some customers might notice better alignment between the status page and their experience, but they're content, so they have little motivation to reach out and thank you for the honesty.

Eventually, the monitoring service gets axed because we can just manually update the status page after all.

Stage 4: Status is manually set. There may be various metrics around what requires an update, and there may be one or more layers of approval needed.

Not saying this is a great outcome, but it is an outcome that is understandable given the parameters of the situation.
