> What if the daily standup routine isn't highlighting problems (nor otherwise helping), but it's just wasting time, throwing off flow, or frontloading a bunch of distractions into people's brains first thing in the morning?

Why don't you change the format of the meeting in a way to make it helpful?

> What if people have to contort their schedules to do it (either starting before they're woken up or done their morning exercise, or interrupting the flow of early-risers who'd already dug into their work)?

Why don't you talk to your team to move the stand up to a time that's convenient to everyone?

> What if the team members are good at async collaboration, and have a good sense when on-demand real-time is worthwhile, so daily synchronous standups seem like someone else needs help/nudge to learn the skills of the other team members, to avoid sabotaging a high-performing team's effectiveness and morale?

Then why are you having stand ups at all?

==========

(I don't know if you are the one who has those issues, but I'm going to use "you" in my response just because it's easier)

None of the things you listed are problems with a daily stand up. Almost all of them seem to be communication issues within your team where you can't or won't communicate your needs to the rest of the team. You're an adult (I assume). If something isn't working for you, speak up, take some ownership of the problem, and work with your team or your manager to find a solution that works for everyone.

Maybe everyone else on the team is getting a ton of value out of the meeting and you are not. If that's the case then it seems like the problem isn't stand up, it's you. Remember, not every meeting you attend is there to give you value. Some meetings exist for other people to get value from you. Just because you're not getting something from it doesn't mean it's a bad meeting.

On the other end of the spectrum, if you talk to your team and no one is getting any value out of the meeting, then the problem isn't the meeting, it's that your team leadership sucks and they're making everyone go to meetings that no one is getting value out of.

Daily stand ups are just a tool. Saying daily stand ups suck would be like saying hammers suck. Your may not need a daily stand up, but that doesn't mean they're bad.

I used to work at Realm (the mobile database company). In order to keep an eye on what was going on, there was a Slack integration that reposted any mention of @realm on Twitter.

One morning, we woke up to a #twitter channel full of very nearly porn. Young men, scantily dressed, flexing their abs and flashing smiles at the camera.

Turns out someone added a bot on Twitter that would repost things from Instagram to Twitter, except that Instagram allows dots in usernames and Twitter didn’t. I think the IG account was @realm.of.beauty, which was promptly understood by Twitter as @realm.
Not to mention all the one- and two-letter combinations!

I wonder if those have less or more breakin issues compared to spokes. With a spoke you have to reset the angle of the bend to the shortest distance between the hub and the rim. But with cables they have to settle in along their entire length.

Doesn’t change the answer. They’re still compressing. They’re just pretensioned.
Not only do they bend light paths to be invisible (or blurry!) to cameras, but they bend information waves so UAP info is never clearly processed by receivers. Anything is possible in Grusch high dimensions.

I guess I'm just saying it would be nice to have an actual "expo build" command that can build the app locally (assuming Android Studio and Xcode are in place), to complete the full Expo framework experience, instead of using expo prebuild and letting the user deal with Android Studio and Xcode manually.

Then again, I can understand why it isn't a priority for the company.

2.0 included a filter on the training data that removed all nudity. It went way too far and removed a lot of humans. They tried to rectify it a bit with 2.1 but even that was still hampered.

What you said also happened, but the main thing was the base model didn't have a great concept of human anatomy. Apparently it was really hard to train for anything else as well.
Possible, if it actually succeeds in ending up everywhere and ubiquitous.

If not, as things are going, media would rather go for more SEO friendly combos like "X formerly Twitter", "Elon Musk's X app", or when things visibly go further downhill "the troubled X app", "the beleaguered X app"...

When you become "beleaguered" in media, it's truly over.

You're repeating yourself here, without adapting to what we've discussed. There was no grand scientific process. This is all just evaluating evidence and giving one's opinion on it - not some profound scientific process leading to an inescapable conclusion.

The issue is finding a widget right beside a widget factory and trying to decide if it came from that factory, or if it came from a mystical laden African swallow that's evaded all attempts at discovery. Technically one cannot prove it one way or the other, and that's problematic when saying one thing sets the world (and likely, your livelihood) on fire, while saying the other is met with a yawn and vigorous approval from the two most influential nations in science, as well as the guy about to sign off on your dream scenario grant.

The only argument they used to try to ignore having to deal with discussing a lab leak is that they claimed that COVID was inefficient at binding to a specific human receptor, with the implication that if it were lab created then you could have developed a more efficient binding mechanism. Nearly a trillion cases later, it seems fairly safe to say that the virus' binding mechanism was quite efficient after all, even prior to mutations.
عينول is a valid name, which can be poorly transliterated to Ai'null

Explaining the joke: The first letter is ain, written as a3 or 'a in some places. Pronounce a' with a soft stop. Because of this, legal names here sometimes include an apostrophe. Normally it's spelled 'Ainul, but one can misspell it.
Hi, author here. The quote you mentioned from Wikipedia indeed says that devices don't have to implement all the capabilities of the connector. However, further down, it says the following:

> USB-C devices may optionally provide or consume bus power currents of 1.5 A and 3.0 A (at 5 V) in addition to baseline bus power provision; power sources can either advertise increased USB current through the configuration channel, or they can implement the full USB Power Delivery specification using both BMC-coded configuration line and legacy BFSK-coded VBUS line.

And further down:

> However, to connect a USB 2.0/1.1 device to a USB-C host, use of Rd[57] on the CC pins is required, as the source (host) will not supply VBUS until a connection is detected through the CC pins.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C

As the device doesn't implement the full USB PD specs, it must advertise that it wants power through the CC (configuration channel) pins. This is part of the specifications and it must be properly implemented.
Neat article.

I'm not really sure about this, Japan loves meaningless highly manual process intensive jobs and high employment rates, so I understand what you mean, but replacing people with machines isn't really in their DNA even though Japan seems to like robot movies.

Maybe in the face of some type of economical crisis they will change their tune but I wouldn't bank on it. In my opinion, they've been burned once, they were the top dogs for a while, economically poised to even surpass America, and now, a lot of people are without money. So I think it will take a bit of convincing to want to go back to those days.

Japan has an interesting sort of apathy (??), kind of like, they're happy to not be the center of attention and just go on minding their business. We had some business development people visit Japan recently and they were stunned at the lack of competitiveness and interest in growing their businesses.

I guess this is a culture which was happy isolate itself from the world for centuries and I guess if it could, there's nothing saying it wouldn't do it again...I have to say, I can't always blame them :)
I read this Wikipedia article and some examples: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp_Object_System

Yes, the article calls it powerful, but aside from the ability to update classes and their functions at runtime - which, maybe I’m missing the utility of so I won’t say it’s useless although in my experience a SharedInstanceSingleton or LocalImmutableConfig or BatchedMonitoringEvent wouldn’t need it - it’s “just” dynamically resolving the method implementation to use based on argument types dynamically and letting you provide an order of precedence for diamond inheritance.

I think it does solve one problem I have - with some solid tooling and a guarantee that class updates at runtime don’t disrupt ongoing calls, it might let me patch running binaries without doing a full update. Though, the cost is that I seem to incur a few extra lookups or even sorts on each dynamically dispatched method, to resolve the implementation? Besides that it doesn’t seem to really solve most problems I have regarding I/O or state - having the option to update some of these at runtime is interesting but it seems like something I’d only want to selectively enable
you can omit version numbers in Conda files as well tho
Currently it only supports openAI. I'm looking into patterns for supporting local LLMs! I think the best approach for that might be to allow you to update the api endpoint to your own and assume you're using something that mirrors the structure of their API.

The main escape hatch for everything right now are custom nodes though. But then you'll need to bring your own templating pattern.

You can absolutely remediate heavily polluted rivers. Best example might be the Rhine. It was so toxic in the 70s that everything in it died. Now it's a nice river with lots of living things and you can absolutely swim in it. It's still dangerous because of ships and currents, but at least the water itself won't kill you.

But there are still lots of other rivers where remediation takes still place, e.g. because the rivers was used for raw sewage.

I have found these notebooks very useful in 2 ways besides presentations: as a final exploratory data analysis front end that loads data from a larger modeling and data reduction system, and as a playground to mature workflows into utilities or modules that will later be integrated into a back end reduction or analysis system.

The models run on a small cluster and/or a supercomputer, and the data reductions of these model runs are done in python code that dumps files of metrics (kind of a GBs -> MBs reduction process). The notebook is at the very tail end of the pipeline, allowing me to make ad hoc graphics to interpret the results.

They can be whistleblowers and still part of the conspiracy without being in on it. I can buy the Pentagon working on some advanced technology outside the purview of Congress. I can also buy that it's so secret that the response to such first-hand accounts are "Nothing to see here; move along" and if people press too hard they're told "It's aliens. Don't tell anyone - for obvious reasons"
This is because your still able to access all the benefits of globalization. You probably have things like cheaper property prices and access to all the latest tech.

You're basically leaching off goods and services provided by those in high growth areas.

I think the idea is we might reach a point where globalization itself is hard to maintain and then things start to unwind, dramatically fast.

Out of curiosity, does this imply there is some permanent solution implemented here that will benefit the river after the Olympics as well?

Not the OP but would somebody be able to summarize HOW are the lisp REPLs different then to me?
I've written limited amount of clojure and common lisp just to play around and I don't recall any difference between Clojure REPL and the REPL I get for say Kotlin inside IntelliJ idea.

Maybe the ability to send expression from the IDE into the REPL with one keybind but I cannot say it's not possible with the Kotlin one right now because that's not what I use it for.
Please do not be so condescending when you don’t bring any facts to the conversation. Let me help you: please name the last 5 presidents and tell me how many of them won the popular vote?

i own the book.. and also The Art of Wheelbuilding - Gerd Schraner

of course in a properly built wheel usually all the spoke are under tension...

i was just demonstrating the fact that the spokes on the upper half of the wheel are supporting the hub and are under greater tension than the bottom ones, the spokes on the bottom half of the wheel should remain in tension, but only through the fact that they are already under tension applied during the building of the wheel.

the fact that the wheel works by tension of the spokes becomes obviously apparent when you start to remove the pretension and then the spokes will feel loose on the bottom half. of course you'd never want to ride a wheel like that because it will quickly become out of true.. just like a walmart wheel.
This is a clown show.

The space one without headphones is particularly cool.

I use it for D&D art generation. I can have a piece of art that somewhat matches every location/scene I have planned. If things don't match my plans I can generate 8 images and pick the best in about 2 minutes. I talk to a lot of other DMs who use it in a similar way.

It's not great with specific details, I plan to commission someone to draw the party when the campaign is over. But for things like a fantasy magic shop with potions, or a fantasy dungeon exterior, or a forest of mushroom trees, it's more than good enough for concept art to throw into Roll20. I couldn't afford 5-10 pieces of custom concept art per game, nor could I come up with the ideas for them 2 hours beforehand and have them ready for the session.

There's a person above saying that it's about being to able to mutate program state from the repl, which is a thing that's also possible in any repl for a language with managed memory.
Japan is way too densely populated in comparison to Nordic countries. It is difficult to alter a country's socioeconomic status by mimicking some foreign policies originated from a country of desired template.
you sound highly confused, what is compressing? the rim? the spoke?
It’s optimized for reading and use: the first time you see a query written by another developer, the interesting bit is what data it returns (the select part). Once you know that, you may be interested in the how, where does that data come from? Same for functions or methods, you first see the signature, input and output structures, before you see the implementation.
Yup, I noticed it after publishing. I'll check with the blog theme and see if that is possible. Sorry!
love this. are there any open source versions of this as a library?
Yes I remember the problems with Vagrant. I'm unsure about what's making Docker more predictable across machines than Vagrant. Possible reasons

- it's usually headless

- it comes with a layer that mounts the host file system, instead of installing extensions

- better testing of that layer on all platforms, especially the ones that need to add a Linux kernel? (Windows and Mac)

- it's harder to ssh into a container, manually fix things and persist the changes without updating the Dockerfile. We can do that with a Vagrant machine.

Anything else?

Why would I use your service over restic?

God bless you Colin, but reading this, it appears you're the only one in charge of the infrastructure for this service. I'm glad you're clear about no SLA, but this seems like a big liability between me and my backups.
It's not Colin's fault that you're using a browser that can't render an html rendition of an email which has been widely in use since before iOS existed.

This is entirely Safari's fault for not having good compatibility with a common existing webpage format.

Anyway, if you're the intended audience (someone using tarsnap), you also received a copy to your email address, where you can read the text with your email reader of choice.
Thanks for the answer! Your word scramble game in particular seems like something that approximates my “maybe not a good fit for FP” bucket. Do you plan on sharing it on GitHub or describing the challenges you ran into?

Completely agree code generation is where I expect Lisp to perform the best. Though, I looked it up and apparently Markdown is not context-free so.. curious as to the challenges that introduces as I figure FP could zap through parsing a CFG but really struggle with state for something not context free
The USSR is the only example I can think of where they ever tried for a long time to elevate workers in this way instead if paying them better, like the parent commenter asked for.
edit:

i assumed the parent did not know how to do that, i tried locally and it seemed to work, but i did not pay attention to the text

original:

on the left side of the url input field you'll find "AA"(the first smaller then the seconds), tap that

then, near the bottom of the pop-up menu you'll have "Show Reader", tap that

if you're not happy with the text as displayed then, you can go back to the "AA" menu and change the options
What I distilled.

Paris like most older cities has a combined storm and sewage system. The problem always is when there is too much rain the treatment plant can't handle the volume so it get dumped into the river untreated. To fix that they're building a huge holding reservoir so they can capture sewage + storm water and feed it slowly into the waste treatment plant instead of dumping it into the Seine.

Added. I've read elsewhere that the Seine is often safe to swim in already. Hope is this will turn often safe to to always or usually safe.

Would you rather have Chrome permit everyone to visit every phishing site? Not OK to take down C2 or botnets? Like it when a DDOS crushes your favorite website because Akamai and Cloudflare can't blackhole the traffic? Your ISP can't filter SMB ports, so everyone with Windows File Sharing gets pwned?
Ah, good to see, easy mistake to make. Thanks.
I don’t know what paris is doing here, but I doubt it.

It’s fairly standard practice for triathlons to dump a whole bunch of bleach into a lake or river to make it safe to swim in for a couple of days, but without continual treatment it quickly goes back to normal.
