> So you agree that if I pay the cost it's not a problem? You just disagree about what that price is?

Not OC, but I don’t think that’s quite right.

When you create any good, like converting a tree into a piece of paper, you convert a natural state into a productive state. No amount of money can reverse this transformation. You can only attempt to offset the conversion. In this example people plant new trees to offset, but the forest remains altered. Then we argue about to what degree it’s been altered and if that’s better or worse.

So I think the debate is more like: Can we offset our consumption of A by doing B? Because B never equals A, some people will naturally always say no and advocate against consuming A in the first place. Others will debate the price/effectiveness of B.
You can equip this thing with 4 Thunderbolt ports. Each such port is required to provide 15W to connected accessories, and they have to plan for the worst-case current, which inclusive of the greediest CPU and GPU you can configure this diving board with adds up to a huge (worst-case) power draw.
It's a real problem. AWS IAM permissions are not human manageable anymore. The only way to get decent permissioning done is via an IaC abstraction layer that can generate them for you based on declared needs. AWS CDK does a pretty decent job here at making it so you can just say `myTable.grantRead(myLambda)`. A lot of the higher level constructs take care of transitive permissions that are needed. Even then, there are cases where you need to make sure you don't just do `myBucket.grantRead(thing)` but also `myEncryptionKey.grantDecrypt(thing)`.

Doing fine-grained permissions correctly is hard.
Yeah, this happened to me this week. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it. It sucks that they don't want to see more but it could be any number of things that they isn't working out for them. This experience you have doing the takehome, it's definitely going to help you out in the future in your next interview. Just think of each interview as another opportunity to learn and grow your interviewing skills :)

But really, I think that interviewers should be gracious about takehomes. And if they're not, that gives you and indication of what kind of place it is to be.

>> It will be interesting to see how many people become vegan not because of any moral reason, but because it helps them e.g. cope with extraordinarily high prices.

My estimate is zero. Prices may reduce certain foods to occasional consumption. I can't speak for other non-vegans, but I'll eat vegan food at times if that's what I go for or if that's what's served by someone. But scarcity will not cause someone to declare themselves vegan IMHO.
Oh no - not my point at all.

You can't pay the price. If the subsidies are stopped, the farmers have to sell their animals to slaughterhouses order of magnitude more, the slaughterhouses have to do the same with distributors, and those guys do the same to restaurants/grocery stores.

No restaurant/grocery store would buy meat at that price (edit: restaurants and grocery stores make 1-4% profits on their sales) this is a PERISHABLE good. It's way too much risk - and what consumer would buy that?

Not forgetting that everything else remains the same price - McDonalds makes money off of dollar meals - that's not gonna work if a quarter pounder is 20$+.

So no - it's not about budget. This is to explain that the "status quo" is heavily supported and is more akin to a sinking ship that is being propped up by subsidies.

A plant based diet is justified many ways by many individuals. To me, sentient animals are not food and have the right to freedom, so that's why I eat plants. Some are motivated by the environnement, some budget, some health benefits, some other reasons.

> Beyond reducing environmental impact through efficiency and recycled materials, we’ve enabled longevity by making both the 2m USB-C and 1m AC cables removable, letting you swap a cable if your cat chews through it.

It baffled me when I first actually examined a laptop that used USB-C natively to discover that its power adapter didn’t use a removable USB-C cable. I’d just assumed implicitly that they would, because obviously you would do it that way since the cables are so frail and always fail long before the brick, and lots of people would like to be able to use a different-length cable.

So far I haven’t had an A–C or C–C cable last for even six months, with not particularly stressful usage. Nor have I had an A–Micro-B cable last much beyond a year in the longest case (normally much less). In all cases, they become unreliable. I’ve tried quite a few different brands by this point, mostly on the cheaper side of things but not all, and have observed no significant difference between cheap and expensive. They all fail.

Does anyone make cables that don’t fall apart ridiculously quickly, failing at the cable/plug junction or within the Micro-B plug?

DC barrel jacks, they fail eventually too, but they’ve at least tended to last two to four years, which is slightly less absurd. My current ASUS laptop’s barrel jack became unreliable after a year and a half in a way novel to me: the metal of the jack has been etched by the latching mechanism in the laptop, to the point that it no longer works if sitting forwards or backwards, only up or down (the less common, and thus less etched, orientations for me), or if you unseat its latching by pull it out a fraction of a millimetre.

Yes. The sentence in question is "Yucatán es una tierra la de menos tierra que yo he visto".

The section "la de menos tierra" sounds fine in isolation, as do the preceding and following sections.

But together they give off a very archaic feeling. Understandable since it was written almost 500 years ago.

A modern version, might be:

Yucatán es la tierra de/con menos tierra que (yo) he visto.

If you know Spanish and you read that sentence and the following ones here: https://www.wayeb.org/download/resources/landa.pdf (cmd+f or go to page 101) you'll notice that every single sentence is rendered differently as it would be in modern Spanish.

An example:

Yucatán es una tierra la de menos tierra que yo he visto, porque toda ella es una viva laja, y tiene a maravilla poca tierra, tanto que habrá pocas partes donde se pueda cavar un estado sin dar en grandes bancos de lajas muy grandes. La piedra no es muy buena para labores delicadas, porque es dura y tosca; empero, tal cual es, ha sido para que de ella hayan hecho la muchedumbre de edificios que en aquella tierra hay; es muy buena para cal, de que hay mucha, y es cosa maravillosa que sea tanta la fertilidad de esta tierra sobre las piedras y entre ellas.

And a quickly made conversion into modern Spanish, trying to preserve certain things while excising others haphazardly:

Yucatán es la tierra con menos tierra que yo he visto, porque toda ella es piedra viva, y tiene maravillosamente poca tierra, a tal grado que habrá pocas partes donde se pueda cavar (4-5 metros cuadrados) sin dar con grandes bancos de lajas muy grandes. La piedra no es muy buena para labores delicadas, porque es dura y tosca; pero, tal cual es, ha sido usada para construir los numerosos edificios que en aquella tierra hay; es muy buena para cal, de la cual hay mucha, y es cosa maravillosa que esta tierra sea tan fértil, sobre las piedras y entre ellas.

EDIT: so everything is understandable really, but some things, like the phrasal adverb (?) (locuciónes adverbial) "a maravilla" has become less used than using -mente to convert an adjective into an adverb. And some articles are used strangely, and some words aren't used anymore (estado as a unit of area), empero instead of pero, etc.
This sort of situation is why I'm so insistent when it comes to always operating a pull-through cache/mirror for dependencies in the context of a software company. Every company needs to do this to protect themselves against dependencies becoming unavailable or changing unexpectedly.

You do need 100%, otherwise you'll end up with a void at the top once the plastic melts. You could experiment with intentionally designing in a "sprue" of extra material to melt and control where the void is, but I haven't tried it yet.

I've successfully used this method on a sun gear for a planetary gear box designed for a low speed, high torque application. Due to mechanical constraints, the gear only had about 1.2mm of wall thickness at a 5mm radius, and it was prone to shearing off. Remelting it in salt solved the shearing, without having to redesign anything else.
Could also hedge with swaps or swaptions or mortgage pass throughs. Banks who are very long mortgages frequently short passthroughs. They take enough risk off the table to not have the risk exposure of a hedge fund.

My lord some of these clients are actual investment firms.

Why the hell is Sequoia hanging on to a billion in cash? I can't imagine cash flow is an issue when you've got those kinds of numbers. They can't find overnight lenders instead of keeping it under SVB's mattress?

> Isn't that the question, whether or not what he's doing is a "specious debate tactic"? You saying "when it's not" begs the question. It is, in my opinion. You can disagree, but your disagreement is not objective fact, just a belief.

Sorry but if I call a fish a cigarette it is not a disagreement over belief. In this case 'gish gallop' has a definition:

The Gish gallop /ˈɡɪʃ ˈɡæləp/ is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm their opponent by providing an excessive number of arguments with no regard for the accuracy or strength of those arguments. Gish galloping prioritizes the quantity of the galloper's arguments at the expense of their quality. -wikipedia

Please tell me how this applies to the response you admit to not reading.

> Nor did I, "disregard the responses."

You specifically said you didn't read at least one of them.

You wrote that you would take them seriously if they weren't a new account. If that isn't 'wrong as a result of who they were' then what would you call it?
It is a trash can that must contain a waste fire so it doesn't burn through the wall of the plane or suffocate the crew.

It is a trash can that must not fly around the E-3's cabin if they're making evasive maneuvers.

It is a trash can that must fit in a specific spot in a plane first made in 1957 and ended production in the 1970s.

It must have been confirmed via a vigorous process to fulfill all these requirements and approved for aviation use.

Just going by the headline, (I don't have time to read another click bait) if it is indeed true, this is to be expected. The one thing that nature is good at is extraordinary degree of efficiency when using energy fine tuned by evolution. No 'artificial' processes will beat that efficiency. Unless you're looking for a significantly worse quality of meat, lab grown meat is never going to be equivalent to real meat, both in terms of quality, and in terms of energy utilization.
I currently don't like the implementation as it relies on FBS, which relies on the unethical practices I became vegetarian (and am becoming vegan) to avoid. The core concept is fine though, and I'd eat it. I didn't make this choice because I hated the taste of meat.

Honestly though, I think vegan meat replacements are pretty much a solved problem already as far as I'm concerned. Between Beyond and Impossible and all the more traditionally made meat substitutes I haven't missed meat in ages.

What I'm really finding difficult to replace, now that I'm trending towards complete veganism, is cheese. Some substitutes work ok in some contexts, but the state of vegan pizza, for instance, is extremely sad.

No, its called a benchmark and tells you how much you have to do to reach the goal you are ostensibly trying to reach. Its useful not disingenuous. Now if someone says this is the final word on lab meat, that would be disingenuous.

I understand. Another reason I haven't pursued this (not like it would matter - I don't have millions of social media followers).

The additional context here is she was yelling at me more than the driver and this was in a small Midwestern town where crime (and especially violent crime) is nearly non-existent. Unlike some of the incidents you hear about where there is physical violence there is a near-zero chance the driver had ever experienced any. To this day I am convinced a little yelling is more-or-less (unfortunately) par for the course of a day in the life of a ride share driver or really anyone in the service industry that interacts with the public.

My perspective is that (again, unfortunately) people in these roles get yelled at on a daily basis (talk to anyone in service). If everyone who ever got yelled at (service industry or otherwise) described it as "violence" these industries would grind to a halt.

My general sense (from my perspective, of course) is the drastic exaggeration and characterization on the part of the driver was more vindictive than a genuine concern for their safety.

My version of events at least. Like the situation I linked to (Twitter thread) absent video (which should be mandatory and provided by the ride sharing platform) these situations are yet another they said/they said and wildly subjective.
>Any time one presents work as their own which they did not create themselves is plagiarism .

Not sure this is true. If I hand in an assignment that is written strictly by scattering chicken bones into a grid representing the most common English words and writing down the result is that plagiarism? It will definitely be non-sense, but i'm not copying anyone else's work.

chatGPT is just a more sophisticated chicken bone grid.
Yes if they eat a lot less of it. You probably can't raise animals as efficiently (especially in terms of land required) while keeping them happy. The difference will be reflected in the cost to the consumer - ethical meat is more expensive[1].

Whenever these conversations crop up, the idea that we might need to eat less meat to achieve ethical or environmental goals seems to be unthinkable to many commenters. The recent fad diets that focus on consuming tons of animal protein have really muddled the water as well since they seem to imply that you can't eat healthy while eating less meat. I think that's why you see so much enthusiasm for lab-grown meat.

I jumped in IT when i was 18 years old and was choosing to which faculty go. At the first 1-2-3 years of working i was really eager to work, learn and you know my eyes were burning. But know it's just seems like an ordinary work every day. I often want not to do tasks and do something else. But sometimes that fire from old days are burning my soul and i'm trying to read smth or touch new technologies. Ofc i'm doing this stuff when i have energy after working and spending time with my son.

And i don't think i will be able to find strength and power to prepare to new interviews. And you know i think i have 3-4-5 more years before my brain will not help me in my work
I would argue that #4 is where this fails most dramatically. Once you have been convicted of a crime, none of the "innocent until proven guilty" protections apply any more.

You have very little recourse, even if you possess overwhelming evidence of misconduct. Appeals are, at best, very slow, and there is a good chance that you will be spending that time in jail -- during which time it is hard to prepare for your defense.

And there is practically no penalty for a prosecutor who engages in misconduct. They hold immunity stronger even that that of police. There is effectively zero constraint on them to be honest. Many do it anyway -- they are not, for the post part, monsters. But if you encounter one who is, your rights were effectively forfeit the minute you walked in the door.
