Piloting planes! A Cessna usually is 50+ years old (since regulations apply for newer planes), instruments are awfully analog, and a good share of crashes happens by fly-into-IFR. Get a helmet: You’ll still get the analog instruments + warnings if they go outside range + 3D navigation map + horizon + a circle around far-away planes that might fly towards you (TCAS) + weather map. All of these are today routine causes for accidents. All that in the $3500 helmet that you also use for work. Plus you can look at your feet and see the terrain.

Could even put dinosaurs in there.
"Money don't buy what you really need
It make an ice man cry, it make a stone man bleed

It rules the world like a green machine"

Pressure equalizes as they descend slowly. It's different from descending 4000m inside an armoured can and have it all released upon you in a split second.
That will be brilliant. And transparent management of unions will be essential.

I answered a similar question[0] back in April. Quoting[1] from it:

>"Fairly senior experienced" people learn in a variety of ways ... but mostly we learn via diffs

In other words, we have a baseline of knowledge, and we're looking for what has changed / is new / is different

>This can come from videos, books, papers, blog posts, one-on-one examples, seminars, conferences, etc

>The best folks then take what they think they have learned, synthesize it into a teachable format, and teach others the "new" thing (crystallizing it in our own minds)

As for specific resources, what are you "interested" in? Re:AWS in particular ... if you "know a bunch of AWS stuff by now anyway", why not go take the exams and get the certs (especially if $WORK will pay for them)?

What kind of "Architect or Principal/Staff role" are you looking for?

Many people are walking for months to reach the coast to escape on these refugee boats.
I've seen it mentioned in a few places; it took me a bit to find it, but it's
in the "subscription services agreement"[1], the relevant bit being section 2.2:

"Distributing the Subscription Services (or any portion) to a third party outside the Portal or using the Subscription Services to support a third party without paying the respective fees is a material breach of this Agreement even though the open source license applicable to individual software packages may give you the right to distribute those packages (and this Agreement is not intended to interfere with your rights under those individual licenses)."

I think the way this works (legally) is that accessing their service (their Customer Portal) is covered under this EULA, while the software is covered under the license. So technically you're not adding additional restrictions to the GPL. Or something like that. Not a lawyer etc. etc.

Edit: I see there's also some discussion of this over here, in case you're interested: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36436375

Lives sure. But not deaths. Bringing yourself in a confirmed dangerous situation just for the thrill of it, even being so desperate for it as to pay what post people would dream of earning over multiple years, and then dying during this adventure ... in contrast to desperate refugees trying to escape into a better life and then dying because traffickers don't care about their survival.. Idk man, doesn't sound equal to me.

Yeah, it's just a basic 24" Dell office monitor from 2014. Actually, I have two of them.

The primary appeal of the VR desktop is that you'd effectively have infinite screens which can dynamically adapt to the content. But I suspect the sacrifice to visual clarity will be enough to scare away most people from using it that way.

Maybe it would work with 8K+ displays? If you can crank the DPI high enough, I could see the VR desktop taking off. I just think 4K probably isn't enough to make it worthwhile for most people - at least not for extended, professional use.
I presume it's because Python has a reputation for being a slow language, and this quiz wanted to show that even "slow" Python code can be fast on modern hardware, unless you touch IO.

That, and Python is probably the most accessible language for the most number of people.
> Early BBC technicians differentiated between disks (in-house transcription records) and discs (the colloquial term for commercial gramophone records, or what the BBC dubbed CGRs)

The reference given for this claim also states "I don't recall that anybody took any notice of this [the difference in usage of disk and disc] except in staff instructions and training manuals.", so I don't think it carries much weight.

In the U.S., and probably elsewhere, audio recordings on vinyl are referred to as "discs" overwhelmingly more often than "disks". See for example the text of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LP_record.

Also we have "discothèque" and its derivatives, not "disko...".

As a long-time full-time linux user, I've for the past weeks been trying to use wayland with KDE again, but simple things like a lack of a native screen locker for basic desktop security and ubiquitous software support by packages are far from a starter.

What mostly got me even wanting to use wayland over x11 was better emulation fps for playing the new Zelda, but most everything else is still pretty darn rough to stick with x11 for now.

This seems silly. We don't get mad at the military if the manufacturer selling 9mm handguns to the DOD also sells to local police and store security guards. We would get mad if weapons manufacturers sold Abrams tanks and ICMBs to local police and store security, but we still wouldn't blame the military for that. We'd blame the sellers for selling it, the users for using it, and the law for not stopping it.

If we don't want Amazon or whoever to use intelligence capabilities originally designed for military use to bust unions, then legislatures need to ban the sale and use of these technologies to and by private actors. It isn't the responsibility of the military to do that.
You are right! Crypto checks all the boxes. Wallets are like users. Mining is like ad network. Ledger is like content.

SUSE is tenacious AF, you have to give 'em that. This could be an opportunity for them to grab some market share. I'd love to see it. I don't wish ill on Red Hat, either, but I'd love to see SUSE grow and be a stronger player here. It'd be good for the larger ecosystem.

Make it so that you have to actually go looking for it, with a product in mind to buy, or just generally be in a shopping kind of mood in order to see it. Our world would be a dramatically different place without all the constant drains on our attention trying desperately to get us to consume.

Definitely agree that some intense insights could be gained. Some of my most brilliant insights into stuff i was working on happened while stoned. Though, it happened getting high after work, having done a ton of leg work digging into the problem at hand. Leg work that was both completely necessary, and would've been impossible to do while stoned.

I never got anything out of being chronically stoned other than general dysfunction.

So you'll develop directly on the wasm runtime locally which should be a platform abstraction ?

The way I see it VM -> Containers -> WASM is a logical progression in the same direction from the perspective of deploying applications.

Exactly. Most people are bothered to see how rich folks like this waste money when most people struggle to survive. Being paid ok in tech does not make me feel any closer to the sort that spends 250k on a fun trip.
Maybe not much consolation, but even crummy health insurance plans have yearly limits where you'd "only" ever have to pay, like, twenty grand a year out of pocket on medical expenses. Significantly lower for better plans, of course.

Assuming your plan is willing to cover the remaining expenses in the first place.

(Yeah, it's not an irrational fear :P)
Unfortunately, this approach cannot solve the clickbait problem, because it is baked into the videos themselves. If someone is using clickbait for their videos, the video itself is very likely to be low quality. The rise of clickbait has led to content creators doing things like exaggerating reactions, misrepresenting things for views, putting on overexcited voices, etc.

It's just the same as how the creator's previous work, SponsorBlock, can only put a bandaid on things, because ad incentives lead to creators padding out their videos to 10 minutes, causing the videos to be needlessly long and rambling. Not to mention videos where the entire content itself is an advertisement.
You can try hackintosh. Depending on your hardware, it may work anywhere from great to not at all.
My guess would be that the window wasn't the failure point, assuming that pressure hull was indeed found in many pieces. If the window did go first, the pressure delta on the rest of the hull immediately begins to equalize, so the amount of force the hull is under immediately goes down, making failure of the hull instantly less likely. The inertia of all the water rapidly entering the vessel might do some damage, but that inertia would have to overcome both the pressure of the ocean pressing in on the outside of the hull, and the tensile strength of the carbon fiber, which is stronger in tension than compression. So my guess would be that if the window failed, it would result in mostly just the titanium end caps being blown off rather than a complete destruction of the hull.

If the hull itself failed, however, given the way carbon fiber fails, finding the hull in many pieces seems to be the expected result.
Hopefully it will eliminate all the boring shit like managing JIRA, giving status updates, and following up with communication tasks. Another large part of my day is also troubleshooting random things, so hopefully AI will benefit my team before I have to get engaged.

I don't think AI poses a risk when it comes to setting engineering priorities and building the roadmap. If it could do that, it could probably just build the entire system anyway.

EMs are there for the human aspect of engineering, so I also doubt it will impact hiring or EM-engineer ratios.

I do expect the bar to being an EM to be higher as the job will be more technical and less project management.

>This is patently false. Redhat is making bank off of this guy. Jeff has written 100s of Ansible roles for free and made them widely available.

Firstly, creating value is not the same thing as creating revenue.

Second, people aren't licensing Redhat for access to these. People license Redhat so when they have a bug that affects them, it gets fixed right away with guarantees. Unless that guy is getting paid to do those fixes, I don't see how this affects Redhat customers.
That's fine, I think clearly the labor market is shifting toward people demanding more WFH.

Maybe on competently assembled subs. All bets are off on this one.
Agree, although if the bells are destroyed, that doesn't mean they were the failure mechanism either. It's entirely possible the tube collapsing would result in a huge water hammer effect on the bells, causing them to be shattered.

It's going to be interesting to see to what level (if any), this gets root-caused. It's not trivial to do when stuff is miles down on the ocean floor.

I assume there isn't a regulatory requirement (like a plane crash). I wonder if it's even needed from an ensuing lawsuit situation; it seems like there's plenty of evidence to support a negligence argument, without getting into the specifics of whether it's the hull that failed or the diving bell, etc.

Yep. Going to mention that next time. "I'm too smart to solve this quickly, can I get back to you next week?"
Makes sense -- it sounds like you can't let someone else use your credentials to access the Customer Portal website/online services... or maybe there's something else that's a "subscription service" they're trying to limit too that I don't understand... but they seem to acknowledge you still have the right to redistribute the source code of any GPL licensed code, that the GPL gives you, right?

But yeah, they are trying to figure out how to square the circle and have their cake and eat it too. It does not seem like they are actually trying to tell you that you have lost the legal right to redistribute GPL software though.
Well the article mentions Ctrl-k+FA to put in the ∀ symbol, but it should be fairly easy to make it output "forall" instead and then use the concealing feature to turn it into ∀. That would get you the best of both worlds, no?
It also occurs to me that there should be no more sophisticated consumer than a billionaire. If one really wanted, I'd imagine they could build their own submersible to their own safety specifications.

That would still narrow down the search quite a bit. Unless you think the cops won't notice a 10 block area where all the cameras are broken.
Only one action can run per robot loop. The first code isn't bad exactly - it just doesn't work for how the robot needs to operate.

Essentially the first code block has the issue mentioned in the article:

Unfortunately, we can't do this because we need our autonomousPeriodic function to keep ticking. Loops like this will never finish and will cause the robot program to hang. So you can't use loops!

The second code block yields every command back to the robot until the robot is ready for the next command - it's not actually the same as the article code but I think it's better design to return a command to the robot than to run a mutable operation in the brain code, it makes it clearer to the user that it is necessary to let the robot do the work.

The article's point is there are many ways to write the state machine code that makes this possible - and the coroutine approach is the easiest for students to understand. It's also quite clean and practical for real world use too.

LOL, Guardian published information about documents describing the danger of this thing, the lack of regulations and how deep sea exploration of this kind is probably finished for many years to come.

Him saying "it's obscenely safe" just sounds like a Silicon Valley CEO saying they're going to save the world by selling their users' personal data under the table. EDIT seems like I interpreted this wrong according to comment below.
As a game engine builder, you come to appreciate that your target speed to draw millions of polygons, calculate physics on hundreds of objects, render the UX, collect network traffic, send network traffic, compute pathing, and implement game logic, and everything else that needs to be done is 16 milliseconds max.

So I would guess in C++ you could make 240 million calculations in a second.
Ahaha, that's also evil genius.

> To my best knowledge, the amount of mechanical harvest needed to feed an animal one unit of protein is no more than 4 units of protein in the most optimistic case[0]

So even if we assume that the harvest needs to affect four animals, that still seems like pretty small potatoes, no? Any hay field I've ever walked through was teaming with hundreds of visible insects alone, and who knows what else was hidden in there, in areas smaller than an acre.

> There's also the aspect of how you weigh suffering of different beings

I am not sure that is necessary. An earlier comment told that all we have to do is count animals. The larger the count, the more the cruelty. The entire discussion has hinged on that assertion.

Certainly there is going to be a whole lot of subjectivity. Some will argue that the number of animals doesn't matter with respect to cruelty – that suffering is wholly an individual experience. And many more will tell you that the animal that experiences the most cruelty of all is man himself and that ending that cruelty will solve all of the world's problems.

But I don't think we need to find a new metric. We already chose one that was good enough.
