No. I see that as a reflection of the reality of the database; if your database contains rows that violate your domain invariants, what would you expect to happen?
AMD is bad at software and that is not changing so they will always be behind.
This is normal. Most aid given to developing countries are stolen by fraudsters. There will always be people looking to exploit the vulnerable and the ignorant.
I think the thing you're missing is that in Japanese culture this kind of interaction can't happen unless you're drinking. The social mores just don't allow these sorts of outbursts in any other situation.

This can be difficult to wrap your head around in the US because we don't have social rules anywhere near as strict as Japan and so empathizing with the experience is difficult.

It doesn't. This is about particulate pollution and other directly toxic nasties, not CO2 or climate.

I’d say hand-crafting pixel-perfect icons with different versions for extreme sizes is worthwhile (and I don’t believe in simple rasterization from vector for the same reason), but not every developer would have resources to spare for that.
Once you’ve tasted the fruits of WFH and you like the taste, you’ll never go back.

It’s like going from a black and white TV to a color one, from a dummy phone to a smartphone, from dialup internet to fiber to the home. You never go the other way round, unless there is a very strong reason and personal decision.

People like to improve their lives in whatever way is best for them and will strongly object to a “downgrade” imposed by others, unless it’s something they’ve decided on their own and on purpose.
Someone here asserted that DoubleClick bought Google with Google’s money. But that was 2008 and that timeline doesn’t sound particularly convincing to me. But something changed for sure.
Time zones still matter though. I have been in same-time-zone remote teams and different-time-zone ones. The dynamic is very different.

Things that take minutes or hours when everyone is on roughly the same schedule, could easily drag on to a multiple day delay in a remote team that crosses many timezones.

As for fully outsourced teams... They always could have done that even before remote work. Other factors seem to affect why that doesn't work.
Personally, I have zero trust.

In reality, the entire article could be thoroughly vetted, and Finkel may well have made a full "recovery" and rededicated themselves to the truth, but fabricating facts at that level is unforgivable.
Is there a way to get air quality via an api in the US that doesn't require api keys? weather.gov is one example of what I'm sorta looking for. I have a shell script [1] that gets weather and solar radiation from free and open APIs. Adding in some sort of air quality index would be great.

It’s been super easy for me to recruit people from my network. Yesterday texted an old friend and he straight up said “sign me up”. Just placed another friend who was extremely competent at our previous job but he got swept up in layoffs. Big layoffs at my old jobs that are in industries that saw huge booms because of the pandemic, whereas I’m in a nice stable industry at a very large company that has a decade+ worth of huge contracts lined up.

They made the home office return to work, but for our sizable satellite office they’re literally building a new 4-story building so the devs can come back in 2025 or so.

Business is booming if you’re in the right industry, and for tech workers it’s not that hard to switch it up.
For a moment I thought they found a way for WiFi to use sound instead of radio.
This is ridiculous. Shouldn't it be the government's job to step in in these situations and mass produce these basic compounds.

Does anyone measure the cost of not saving lives, and who pays that cost?
Most firs and pines tend to be around the same density (around 25-28 lb/ft^3).

Wood isn't magic and no common softwood is particularly moisture resistant. It's more likely that the envelope of the house was built better than anything to do with the framing materials.
Let's flip this around: do you (or decision makers) have any evidence that remote work is worse? Without that data, and barring ulterior motives (such as attrition without severance), reversing the status quo and enforcing return to office is, by definition, not a sound data-driven decision.
As long as you help staple filters to the wall of my filter shed!
The other replies reflect my thoughts, so I don't have much to add. So, these are elaborations on those:

It appears most of the peripheral support libs (eg those that use Embedded-HAL traits) are not designed with practical ends in mind; I've found it easier for all I2C/SPI etc devices I've used to start from scratch with a `setup` fn with datasheet references, than DMA transfers. So, you have these traits designed to abstract over busses etc; they sound nice in principle, but are (so far) not useful for writing firmware.

I get a general sense that the OSS libs are designed with a "let's support this popular MCU/IC, and take advantage of Rust's type system and language features!" mindset. A bare minimum is done, it's tested on a dev board, then no further testing or work. There are flaws that show up immediately when designing a device with the lib in question.

So, at least for the publicly-available things, they're designed in an abstract sense, instead of for a practical case.
Reminds me of my gym's site (https://www.stc.se/), where the centerpiece is occupied by a useless looping montage, while the main function of the site (the booking system) is pushed into a hidden-by-default sidebar. I've had to block the video with uBlock to be able to use the site, since it's so distracting.
If you submit a peer review paper to a frontline journal like NATURE and then it turns out your work cannot be reproduced, and you do not either issue a retraction (and explanation) or an explation how to make it work, and your data, then you stand very likely to be accused of falsifying data.

If you had secured tenure at a uni because of achieving the nature paper, and this happened, your head of department would quietly suggest you look elsewhere for employment because you won't be getting seniority in the department, ever.

You can publish shit in the minor outer planet regional journal of skeptical telekenesis, and nobody cares. If you publish a paper in Nature "we cured cancer" and it turns out you forgot to stir the lab reagents before adding them to the PCR machine, people care.
If not multiple browsers many use different profiles, and then you would want to chose the appropriate profile
But... At that point what does hibernate even do for you? You can just use a lighter query wrapper at that point, or almost even roll your own wrapper around jdbc directly. The latter is a bit more work but it might be worth it depending on project since it gives you absolute control.

I'll take a query wrapper that's designed so I supply queries directly and it does the work from there (binding to objects) over using hibernate that way any time.
It sounds like reimplementing ClickHouse, but worse. Sorry for pointing this out, but isn't it?
VC are incentivising building an “AI” business right now with easier access to funding. Wouldn’t be surprised if half these companies would drop the AI moniker otherwise.
An external keyboard and mouse is a necessity for any non-emergency work. 100% of laptop keyboards and trackpads suck for anything other than emergencies, and many suck for emergencies as well.

This is inarguable fact.
Maybe consider a boxfan+furnace filter for the living room - if air quality is always bad you don't really need the sensor switching
The dirty rotten cheats went and took a copy of the source code in Wales. (-:

I had to use a disassembler to get an enormously long printout (on a continuous roll in a really small font -- no fanfold or tractor holes here!), and then go through and hand-annotate it in ball-point pen after figuring out what it did.

Checking the first few hundred lines of my printout, it agrees with this source.
I don't even think there's a study that indicates developer productivity can be reliably measured.
Thanks for the interest! We have transparent pricing here: https://quant-aq.com/pricing

Short answer, $1500 + $300 annually (includes cellular, realtime data calibration in our cloud, and full API access).

Relevant to the topic above, we are building for a slightly different market than AirGradient, and want to make sure we're an appropriate solution for potential customers -- you might genuinely be better served by a different product! As such, we're currently not optimized for low touch single sales to individuals, but it's something we'd like to improve in the future.

If you do contact sales, and we end up being a good fit for what you're looking for, we'd love to help!

> But no-one uses different databases.

Within the same installation, that's true. Within different installations, not necessarily. GotoSocial uses `bun` as its ORM which allows you to use the same code for a Postgres, MySQL, SQLite or MSSQL backend[1]. Which is extremely handy if you're writing something for other people to use in a system you (obviously) don't control.

[1] Although I believe GTS only officially supports PG or SQLite.
Why not try reading the paper written by Igor and try to find single instance where he launches a personal attack on the researchers, calls them names etc?

Note just the tone difference as you read Igor’s work to the stuff of his detractors. One immediately goes personal, tries to figure out motivations of the opposing counsel, talks about harassment and sounds emotional to say the least. The other has an extremely objective tone, only focuses on the subject matter, and in general reads more like a maths theorem than an activist essay.

I’ll leave you to guess who sounds like who.
Six hour battery life seems very good for dual OLED screens... I'm slightly skeptical of the details.

That’s the whole American kayfabe in a nutshell: create a boogeyman out of state power, while allowing businesses to stomp all over everyone. You have a greater right to free speech (in the absolute sense) in most European workplaces than you do in the US because your boss can’t take away your kids’ medical care because he doesn’t like some remark you made about politics or whatever.

How exactly is Systemd more complex?
In Italy there's a bunch of things called "pizza" which are not round flat bread.

Consider the pizza di Pasqua (dough with liquor, chocolate, cheese, +20cm tall), pizza alla pala (1.5m long), pizza sbattuta (sponge cake), pizza in teglia (rectangular and cut in square slices), and many more.

Could be related to pita, and I would not argue every culture on earth made flat round dough and put stuff on it, but it's a very large family.

node A is connected to nodes B, C, D, E, F

the A->B link is under DDoS or whatever and delivers packets with 10s latency

the A->C link is faulty and has 50% packet loss

the A->{D,E,F} links are perfectly healthy

node B has one view of A's skew which is pretty bad, node C has a different view which is also pretty bad for different reasons, and nodes D E and F have a totally different view which is basically perfect

you literally cannot "detect skew" in a way that's reliable and actionable

issues are not a function of the node, they're a function of everything between the node and the observer, and are different for each observer

even if clocks were perfectly accurate, there is no such thing as a single consistent time across a distributed system. two events arriving at two nodes at precisely the same moment require some amount of time to be communicated to other nodes in the system, that time is a function of the speed of light, the "light cone" defines a physical limit to the propagation of information
I have noticed a lot of subtle UI changes recently. Youtube and Steam specifically. I assume this is because it is the end of a quarter and teams have to ship something for promos. In a couple weeks the experiments will be over and we can go back to a few months of stability until Q3. But watch out, this is intern season, so the stuff you see in September is going to be really wild.
> most devices are designed with a commination of passive and active cooling

Smartphones with active cooling? You must live in world that's very different from the one I live in.

Also, as mentioned in other replies, your whole point about "overheating and rebooting" is a straw man. Throttling was introduced to address battery aging. Again, a problem that affects every device with rechargeable batteries.

> Apple just has a history of prioritizing design asthenic and they're willing to push the limits on thermal regulation.

Except they do have thermal controls...
I have been coding on Java since v1 and wrote basic ORMs before Hibernate was a thing (yes, in EJB world). There were pretty big and complex projects in fintech and healthcare, but I have never encountered the situation you describe. Maybe I was lucky, but logically you cannot say “every non-trivial project”.

I'm sorry, did you not read past the ad break? The very next paragraph is about four dissenters taking issue with the wetlands definition:

> Justice Brett Kavanaugh, joined by the court's three liberal members, disputed Alito's reading of the statute, noting that since 1977 when the CWA was amended to include adjacent wetlands, eight consecutive presidential administrations, Republican and Democratic, have interpreted the law to cover wetlands that the court has now excluded. Kavanaugh said that by narrowing the act to cover only adjoining wetlands, the court's new test will have quote "significant repercussions for water quality and flood control throughout the United States."

While the trivia version of this is interesting (I've seen it elsewhere than Twitter), does anyone actually have a working list of all the models?

Somebody needs to write an updated Big Red Fez because modern devs clearly don't understand the idea. 20 years ago the problem was sites didn't have a banana; the problem now is sites are nothing but bananas. But the impact is the same.
How are Systemd's unit files any worse than unconstrained init scripts written in a Turing complete language with even basic stuff - like PID files - managed manually?
> If >25% of the population uses your company for some form of communication censorship should be prohibited

IRL, that kind of regulations exist all over the world but they don't tend to mandate no censorship, instead they mandate censorship in the name of national security.

Unfortunately, the national security aspect is not exactly baseless. It all started with the Arab Spring, when the more authoritarian countries realised that they don't have control over the communications as they used to and the less authoritarian countries realised that foreign powers can curate the content their population sees(through fake accounts or owning the platform).

Anyway, IMHO censorship should never be an option and to deal with issues of security we just need openness. That is, platforms with significant reach should be mandated to have open algorithm and verifiable data which can be investigated against faul play. For example, 3rd parties should be able to look into the recommendations and moderation actions of YouTube.
It WILL be implemented. Remember: both the EU and the US are pushing these laws. And soon they will be extended to cover terrorist propaganda, drug trafficking and calls for unlawful protests.

This is not disabled. I loaded the page a few minutes ago and it gave me the fullscreen popover. It appears about halfway down the page. I just re-loaded to check and there was no popover. When I load the page in a private browser session I still get the popover. So there appears to be a cookie that remembers the dismissal.

e: I cleared the substack cookies and my main browser session still doesn't get the popover but private sessions do.
Fwiw: I did some searching and pine had the strongest effect on pm2.5 in the study I found.

Sooo it’s dapper with string interpolation override to make queries parameterized so you don’t need to manually put the parameters on as 2nd arguments?
No numbers on potential efficiency gains.

This also seems like a likely capital cost vs operational expenses optimization. What is the upfront cost premium for the dehumidifier vs lifetime energy savings?
The only conclusion I can come to is that this is a recruiting aid to signal stability to candidates (cashflow vs valuation) for orgs that might have a challenging time hiring when private equity valuations are down 40% and tech valuations in general have declined.

Why else proudly proclaim success when everyone knows exits and IPOs are waiting on the further end of the yield curve?
Sorry to hear that you encountered such teams. It tells a lot about their professionalism and experience. There are teams which do not use this kind of argumentation.
Like most 10x technologies such as ORMs, AWS, and high-level languages, the goal should be to gain the advantage they provide early on but have a plan to move toward technologies with better long-term outlooks (ideally home-grown alternatives).

You can run tests in MySQL in memory almost as easily.

database-autotests:
volumes:
- mysql-autotests-volume:/var/lib/mysql

volumes:
mysql-autotests-volume:
driver_opts:
type: tmpfs
o: "size=2G,mode=777"
device: tmpfs

It's also very fast and allows to test the code on the same database, especially if you have something MySQL-specific.
On that front unfortunately OPNsense is the same. But there’s a plugin at least.

Yes? At this point, it's hopeless - plastics are expanding like never before, Shell expanding several new enormous factories right in the US. No politician is interested in stopping it either, since the lobbying industry for plastics is also going strong. The only legislation passed in modern time is against single-use plastics, which is just a tiny drop in the ocean (!!) of plastic.

And also, the clothes industry is massive and went from an already cheap source like cotton, to plastic.

Consider the forces here that push plastics - influensers, marketers and huge brands. It's hard to find consumers or manufacturers willing to pay several times more for the better alternative..

EDIT:

In the end, it's up to consumers. Personally, I'm using glass, it's infinitely re-usable. I use hemp clothes, it lasts many times longer and I don't own a car, I bike everywhere.
That's a shame, I reached an impossible situation. The best chess move is Re5+ which includes the letters Re which is the element Rhenium with atomic number 75. However since the roman numerals need to multiply to 35 then the only valid solution is having VII and V (XXXV for 35 is not recognized for some reason), and V is Vanadium with atomic number 23 and I is Iodine with 53. That already leaves me with 227, above the 200 threshold for one of the rules.
