Yea it’s atrocious as management is basically derelict in planning.

They are relying on random unrelated work tasks to trigger these unplanned work time bombs all over the code base .

Either some new standard is important and the code should be updated, or not. Just relying on randomness and slowing down urgent work ain’t a plan.
No, the best organizations have a happy path laid out for org chosen tools and a platform that supports adding in “non standard” tools / libraries by individuals and teams as needed, with a defined path toward those additions become the new golden path standard.

Sure, it's Reddit. Point out that Europe and EU isn't the same and you get 50-100 downvotes in a discussion where the difference matters followed by a boatload of snarky responses. But this isn't Reddit. Here the same snark and opinions are put in pretty packages to avoid mods, but it's still there. Look at any mention of China or Socialism for example.
Then what is the gimmick?

I would categorize it as performance.
Nowadays I use github's packages registry. I used to run my own registry in the past along with the docker save method. But both of them are annoying to deal with. I have Github Pro so it's pretty much free. However even if I need to pay for it in the future, I'll probably do so. It's just not worth the headache.

> and the Australian Drop Bear

Urban legend I was told (In Auckland - not Australia)

In the war the US army moved vast reserves into North Australia for quite obvious reasons.

Tanks on exercises in the Australian desert got very hot, so naturally kept their hatches open whenever they could.

Massed tanks on manoeuvres in the desert will from time to time run into trees.

Koala spend 90% of their time asleep in trees.

Completing the picture a tank blunders into a tree and koala are dislodged and rain down.

Through open tank hatches.

The "Great Australian Drop Bear" is a recently woken angry Koala in fight mode in a crowded tank.....
I think the theory for the normal orbit is that the force given by Newtonian gravitation points outward rather than inward, but then the effect of an outward-pointing force on an object of negative mass is to cause an inward-pointing acceleration.

As other people have pointed out, that's inconsistent with other aspects of the simulation, and maybe just means that the author happened to use two equations involving mass in the simulation and the two negative signs cancelled each other out. Whereas using an odd number of equations involving mass would cause a physically noticeable different result.

I actually wonder if one could derive an explicit contradiction in Newtonian dynamics by allowing negative masses. That is, show that there is no trajectory that actually satisfies all of the equations in this case. (But that might also depend on which equations we think are fundamental. E.g., if we break conservation of energy, is that just an interesting consequence that that law doesn't apply anymore, or is that a contradiction?)
I'm not sure they forget about cleanup for nuclear so much as it just isn't included for any power generation method.

The residual ash from coal plants are called coal tailings. They basically contain everything in the coal that didn't burn. Currently this is all piled up near the coal power plant. So you have chemicals like mercury, arsenic, and lead, as well as a smattering of radioactives like uranium sitting in a pile. Occasionally weather washes out these "piles" and they find their way into streams or leach through the underlayment to hit the ground water. When a coal plant is decommissioned the owner files for bankruptcy and the pile of coal tailings becomes another Superfund site.

Yet somehow nuclear is different. Even though if nothing is done, in a thousand years the coal tailings will still be just as toxic as today. While the radioactive waste will be near a background.

That's rationalization. The middle east wasn't on the verge of collapse, that's ludicrous. even if it was, it doesn't justify the invasion! Again, those deaths are squarely americas fault. It would be like arguing that eh, Putin isnt so bad since Ukraine was in a state of quasi civil war anyways. But the civil war was caused in huge part due to Russian meddling in Ukraine, just like the instability in the middle east in 2003 was due to the war on terror and the decades of playing king makers by the US.

In any case, Trump still led to an order of magnitude less deaths than Bush. As a non American (and a Muslim) that's all that matters. Everything else is irrelevant outside of the US. And arguing that lying is worse than killing is again, quite extreme partisanship.

It's weird to see the rhetoric shifting to "well the Iraq war was acshually not that bad because... We need to rehabilitate bush and we need Trump to be the worse like, ever!". No, Iraq did not deserve an invasion based on lies. No matter how bad Saddam was, the most affected were the Iraqis.

Dynamic DNS record services have been around almost since the beginning of the public internet, and it's not the only way to deal with a remote location that has a changing IP address.

It's far from "obviously the only way for you to connect" - you are just ignorant of your options

That's where "tracker" originated. "Chiptunes" are a more recent denotation and imply hardware generated sound different than a tracker.
A Brompton is really small when folded. Smaller than a carry-on suitcase by volume. It rolls on little scooter wheels on the rear rack when folded. I bring mine into all the places you just listed on a regular basis, except for a gym. For a restaurant, it typically will fit under a table. At a bar, if you are at a table the previous thing works. I've also had the bar staff offer to stash it inside the store room. If someone you are meeting up with is DD'ing a trunk works as well. I've never been in a store so small I couldn't roll it in, you can just pull the seat up a bit and roll it in front of you.

They both used observational health data to create a causal conclusion on mortality. How is that not a similarity in methodology?
Yes being a CAS and a general purpose language is at odds. I guess there's two paths

a) use sigils to signal that some variable should be treated as an abstract values for CAS purposes. like, :x + :x rather than x + x (or.. use sigils to signal that a variable is "normal", like $x is a normal variable and x + x is CAS stuff)

b) declare CAS variables as such before using them. like with a "var" keyword or something. optionally, declare normal variables, but with a different keyword

Note that formal math always look like "b)" (we declare our variables before using them), it's informal math that looks what Mathematica is doing
The audit trail likely represents actual risk reduction of someone undoing or misunderstanding the change later, since the change has no meaning outside the context of the request.

"Fixing preexisting errors that violate new company policy" also arguably involves real risk reduction; you gotta do that work sometime, and if everyone in the company agrees the time is now, the best time is now.

Using Marge instead of Homer is not "risk reduction" but presumably testing accounting close is also critical.

Tony's request is also reasonable, unless you want to leave the next dev in the same shithole you were in re. the wiki state.
On the flip side, if nearby things are never updated to match changing understanding of the system, then very shortly the code will be cluttered with possibly dozens of different styles: multiple naming conventions, constants in some places, hard-coded values in others, and values read from a parameter file in others, and other kinds of variations. The result will be a chaotic scramble that has no clear structure, and requires programmers to know and understand multiple different ways of expressing the same business concept.

Now that is truly increased risk.

Except that phrase is a pretty well-known aphorism. It's sort of the equivalent of using map and filter or reduce on a collection - just because a programmer hasn't seen map, filter, and reduce doesn't mean it's wrong. Perhaps the programmer needs more experience.

1. UTF-8 is not an unreasonable encoding, but it is an encoding of an unreasonable character set and is also unnecessary here. It is better to avoid needing unnecessary conversions that will then be needed in both programs, even though it should not be necessary. Not everything is using UTF-8 and Unicode. I continue to use (and write) programs that do not use Unicode. (And, if it is necessary, conversion program can also be written in uxn; the fact that uxn does not use Unicode does not prevent this; you can implement whatever character sets/encodings that you want to do.)

2. Sometimes it might, but that has nothing to do with uxn. Sometimes it isn't helpful to be differentiated anyways, and sometimes this differentiating byte arrays from text causes problems, too (it isn't really so uncommon).

3. The niju program does not use Unicode and does not need it; it works better without it. If you do want more sophisticated Japanese text, even then there are better ways than using Unicode.
well, i might be repeating meself.. Been mentoring few ppl.. last 15+ years..

it's not easy to find mentees. Not pupils, students, or just listeners.

proper ones. Those who will devote some of their time/selves into the mentoring. Be it everyday or once in a while. Those actively interested in being mentored (not taught, lectured, tick-that-course'd, etc)..

And when there is someone like that, noone pays for that. So it gets even more difficult.

Somehow this mentoring thing has always been taken for given, granted, an "expectation" of being experienced/older/.., and that it happens automagicaly. Well no, does not. Needs very conscious and persistent attention from both sides. Hence Active support - if it's not purely personal.

have fun
Whenever I have anything to deploy, so depends on the project. On actively developing ones, could be once or twice a day. On slower days maybe once every 2/3 days.
Looking at the flights and seat map, looks like most of the seats are pay to upgrade for the extra legroom.

Is that what you mean with like 40% of the plan having extra legroom?

Options seem to be:

“Standard legroom (79 cm/31 in)
Conveniently located in the front, directly behind the Economy Comfort zone
Quick access to your seat during boarding”

Or

“Enjoy extra legroom (+10 cm/4 in) and recline (up to 5 cm/2 in)
Be one of the first Economy Class passengers to board
Conveniently located in the front of the Economy Class cabin”

Embedded Linux engineers in general are not incompetent. Many of us do care about quality of the software we write. Although you are right that there is a lot of dodgy embedded software around, that isn't a reason to accept mediocrity like this in newly written user facing APIs.
They'll be marketed on the basis of individual personalities before long. I think it's inevitable, it means each one forms its own natural monopoly.
By the way, since the beginning of time, open source was happening asynchronously on email and IRC. Linux, one of the most complex and most useful pieces of software that exists, was done over asynchronous text. There are innumerable examples of builder success when working async. The synchronization obsession comes from managers and execs.
I think it's great at simple technical questions, like "how do I do x in python". Hallucinations isn't really a problem since I am about to check if the solution works anyway.
I think they will over time if PE deals start to implode or reveal themselves to be as bad as people claim. But the reaction will take a while to happen.

With partnership-based models, it's not necessarily the case that most of the doctors who owned their practices were necessarily that entrepreneurial. Many probably joined the practice and then became partners after a few years with buy-in and sweat equity. There's some risk and business management involved, but not the same as really doing your own thing. The path was laid out. (Kind of like lawyers at big law firms.)

The real entrepreneurs were the ones who initially founded a practice from scratch. But for some specialties where PE has taken hold, you need a group of people with enough capital to do that, negotiate contracts with hospitals for admitting privileges, wait-out a non-compete from a prior practice, etc. That takes time, and meanwhile, the net share of PE held firms may still increase for a while as other firms continue to sell out.
Bezos pulled it off by starting that practice from immediate onset of founding his company (hence my startup comment).

It’s not like 20-years into Amazon, he then decide to implement that practice.

Also, people misconstrue Amazon as being an async culture.

That’s incorrect.

Amazon is actually an anti-PowerPoint culture. So when meetings need to happen, you need to convey your info in long form writing since PPT isn’t allowed. That doesn’t mean the culture is async.
I don't know about other people but i have no agenda. I am neither right nor left (perhaps this is one of the topics where the two sides can find common ground). I support anyone on either side as long as they deliver good policy, the kind that improves people’s lives, maintains a stable economy, looks after workers and businesses with sensible balance, doesnt ostracise groups of people based on their religion, race, gender, and other irrelevant traits. I also support good policing that respects people. And i am genuinely worried that we are straying further away from these. Perhaps some people feel the same way and thats why they dont downvote my comment.

> Metabolic health is responsible for at least 3/5 of healthcare costs.

I would love to see a source for that, as it is strongly at odds with all data that I've ever seen. For example:

"Medical cost of overweight and obesity combined is approximately 5.0% to 10% of US healthcare spending." https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1467-789X....

"Costs attributable to overweight and obesity in Canada were $6.0 billion in 2006, with 66% attributable to obesity. This corresponds to 4.1% of the total health expenditures in Canada in 2006. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1467-789X....

"Costs attributable to obesity totaled US$ 269.6 million (1.86% of all expenditures on medium- and high-complexity health care)." https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...

This is a notoriously difficult thing to estimate, and highly influenced by exact definitions of any given study, so some variance is to be expected. But going from around 6% to >60% seems like quite a jump.
A bonus based on risk-adjusted outcomes would put pay in alignment with patient care. This would require much better outcome analysis and reporting though (also a good thing).

I found $50 for a month of resumeworded.com helped optimize your resume based on their provided objective function. Just make multiple copies of your resume, like in my case, lastname_first_name_x89_y92_z95.doc and based on the ATS feedback, adjust your resume by making the incremeental changes and updating the file name for the new scores that they pass you. Eventually, you will get to lastname_first_name_x99_y99_z99.doc or thereabouts and have a nice ATS resume. The other part of your question, the skills. My approach was to decide what field I was working in and review various job postings making a list of the desired skills in that field. Then summarize and list those skills for that that targeted field.

Though to be fair, SETI is specifically looking for "intelligent" life.

It may be possible to identify biosignatures on other planets, like looking for evidence of atmospheric gasses far from ordinary chemical equilibrium (like how microbes emit methane here on Earth), or unusual spectra, like spotting the signature of chlorophyll absorption.

It is more expensive to open a clinic than a restaurant, with the costs being anywhere from $500k-$1M. The main difference between the two is that the vet clinic has higher running costs aka salaries in the early years before the practice takes off. For restaurants, it’s relatively lower (staff salaries and produce) if the demand is lower.

What are "these things"?

Are you talking about something with a throttle?

In the EU (and still the UK), anything with a throttle is treated like a motorcycle - it needs licence plates, tax, insurance and a driving licence. A child would therefore not be able to ride one. You also can't ride them on bike paths or lanes.

A pedelec on the other hand, which is what "ebike" usually refers to, still requires pedalling and can only offer motor assistance up to 15.5 MPH - these can be used wherever bicycles can and by anyone, and have no legal requirements to use.

I understand that the US doesn't really regulate non-standard vehicles, but it does seem to me like a child shouldn't be using something with a throttle.

Forcing everyone to satisfy standards/inspectors just kills all the joy from plumbing, so you get everyone to be mediocre.
I don't get fatigue at all, but always keep my video off and do other things if the content of the meeting isn't directly relevant to me.
