I’ve not been but Miami comes in the middle of a ranking of public transit cities in the US so I could imagine the trip working well the other way around. https://amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/...

How practical it is will depend on the place. Yes lots of America has been built as suburban sprawl but there are lots of slightly more urban places too where modern regional rail would be a huge improvement over sitting in traffic.

The frustrating thing about living in the bay area is that they ripped up a lot of rail in the 60s and replaced them with roads. Now those roads are clogged and journeys by car take longer than journeys by rail did back then.
I just mean that when you lower prices, more people will buy it, and they’ll buy more of it. That can more than offset the lower margin on a per item purchase.

If your train has 200 seats, it’s better to sell 200 tickets at $65 per ticket than it is to sell 100 at $100 per ticket.
>Highly recommend more folks look at credit facilities.

Are you suggesting funding with lines of credit vs "free" money from VC which diminishes the founder's control?
This is why I prefer a self-optimizing collections library. Many of these inefficient passes can be internally re-wired when combining 'objects' which represent the functions and their rules of composition.

Inline 'debug' pipeline functions are helpful for the second problem you mentioned.
>inverse correlation between dosage and effect

That sounds quite magical. Wouldn't it be more likely that the uptake characteristics were very different for the two variants? Not sure if possible but maybe the 10mg variant were still being digested the day after so it would make you sleepy then instead of during the night?
With anti-aliasing filters, that's how.
Lots of news about Twitter is not a link to Twitter. Most mastodon domains don't have mastodon in the name.
Organizations might not have the ability or money to hire an entire organization to build a product from scratch.

An upfront $200,000,000 bill is much harder to budget for than a 7-8 year $25,000,000 bill at an organization generating around $1 billion in revenue and with extremely low margins.

For most organizations, software is a cost center the same way HR, Payroll, and Accounting is within tech companies, so whatever limited money exists is better spent on their primary mission

Contracting out functions can work quite well, but the issue is organizations might not hire the right kind of management staff for techncial projects. Also, in most organizations IT/Infra falls under the CFO organization, and as such budgets are much smaller

Also, procurement rules are often written in such a way that it's often unfeasible for newer alternatives to compete simply because there is a massive upfront cost to meet RFP requirements.

Contrary to popular belief, enterprise sales doesn't want to target high revenue alone, you want to target high revenue PER dollar spent. If I made an efficient competitor to Cerner or Epic, why should I spend $50-60mil over 3 years to get FedRAMP qualified if the TAM federal agencies can provide me is maybe $100mil? For Cerner/Oracle and Epic, that $50-60mil isn't that expensive to provision because it can add additional lock-in or deal sweetners like other adjacent softwares or services getting discounted, thus making that $100mil into $130-150mil, or leveraging economies of scale to make that $50-60mil infra cost down to $20-30mil.
If its affecting your mental health so much, perhaps you should change jobs.
The solution at the end almost looks like the manual setup of terragrunt which we are using to manage lots of base infra in many different accounts.

What would be interesting here would be to see how they actually reference the outputs from one layer onto the next layer. That is something that is not even solved nicely in terragrunt and one of the major annoyances for me there.
Using dependencies and the mock_output option is creating lots of noise in the plan outputs as the dependencies are only completely resolved when terragrund applies all the modules.

But it seems I also missed a few additions to terraform - so probably there are better ways to take outputs from one terraform run into another one.

Of course, it is obviously inevitable that at some point the doomsayers will be correct (and, to note, there are also many times they've been right in the past - I wouldn't have wanted to be born in Europe just before the Black Death, or in Rome just before it fell, or in 510 or so just to be in prime age during what is often called "the worst year in history" in 536, ...)

Does this prior art invalidate any of Nvidia's patents?
I don’t - companies misallocating resources to chase fads most of which end up as mediocre product is nothing new nor is it tech industry specific.
ahh yes, setup a relationship on a lie and close the loop on major interpersonal issues. When in doubt, push the upcoming bursting bottle down to later you.
yea, great for small projects but no good when you're trying to expand into enterprise capabilities -- I have to get one tool for dev, have that config diverge from CI, and then from staging
then i have to hire a large devops team to manage it all -- super inefficient
I did this once. I landed in Newark at 12am on a rainy night. Ubers were about $300 to Brooklyn with a 60 minute wait, and my phone was about dead. So, I took the AirTrain. The AirTrain doesn't go to the terminal I arrived at, so I walked through an empty parking garage, then outside in the rain for a while, then finally to the AirTrain station with all the lights off. Trains were running though! In sections. At each station between this one and the commuter rail station, you had to switch trains. Eventually I arrived at the EWR NJT station, and the machine wouldn't take my credit card. I tried another one and it worked. Eventually I got on a train to Penn Station that ... just stopped for 20 minutes for no reason. Penn Station was closing down when I arrived, and myself and another passenger got "locked in" to the gated-off corridor between NJT and the 7th Ave line. The gates weren't locked, though, so we opened them and pressed on to find the subway. The 2/3 of course runs local at this hour and at 30 minute frequencies. I definitely waited all 30 minutes, and then enjoyed the speedy trip downtown stopping at 27th St, 23rd St, 18th St, 14th St, Christopher St, Houston St, Canal St, Franklin St, Chambers St, Fulton St, Wall St, Clark St, and finally getting off at 2:30AM into the pouring rain at Boro Hall.

It was well worth saving the $290.

(I normally fly into JFK and take the LIRR to Brooklyn. I didn't do that this time because my employer insisted that I fly into SJC instead of SFO to save on taxi fare. AA would only sell EWR-DFW-SJC and not JFK-DFW-SJC. Never again. When I worked for Google I flew business class from JFK-SFO with a fully-flat bed! Then took Caltain down to Mountain View.)

> I've asked for simple ipv6 tutorials

There really does seem to be a lack of good documentation about all of this. The docs that I've seen appear to be aimed at actual network engineers, or are so incomplete as to not be worthwhile.

I would be much less stressed by all of this if I could find something good that sits between those two extremes.

A part of me, though, suspects that the reason there is no "middle ground" documentation is that it's not possible -- that IPv6 is too complex for that. Not saying that's the actual reality, but it has the whiff of it.

Got it, I see you're in the "make up stuff about the other person" phase of the discussion. No point in continuing here.
Well, apropos of anything else, I think they very deliberately "broke"/tweaked Display Stream Compression when they released the Pro Display XDR.

My cheesegrater Mac Pro with a beefy graphics card under Catalina, I was happily running 2 4K displays in HDR10, at 144Hz.

First beta of Big Sur, which came out with the Pro Display? I could drive them in HDR10 at 60Hz. 95Hz in SDR.

Was reproducible - by me, by many others.

Turn DSC 1.4 down to 1.2 on my monitors, and it got a bit better, HDR10 @ 75Hz, 120Hz SDR, IIRC.

That remained broken all through Big Sur, despite a huge number of reports.

Remained broken through Monterey too.

I believe it's fixed in Ventura, but I've since changed monitors.

Initially, people were wondering about the Pro Display's bandwidth and how it was doing 6K HDR and other USB connectivity, and it sure as hell seems like they messed with the DSC spec to make it happen, and 'screw other monitor owners'.
Twitter doesn't have a ton of people pimping twitter out to anyone who will listen. Those links tend to occur because people actually use twitter.
My Tesla Model 3 Performance is the 4th car I've owned and it's the only car that hasn't achieved EPA estimations.

Hell, my previous car was a 2016 Subaru BRZ manual, EPA estimated at 24 city/30 highway. Despite the occasional launch, I still averaged 32 mpg.

That said, I'm not upset by it, despite only getting 240-270 miles depending on the weather (Out of the 300 mile EPA range). I know the reality of the difference in how an ICE and an EV use their energy.

Tesla is doing nothing wrong. If the range estimations are inaccurate, it's the EPA that needs to change.
There is also very little "money at rest" or idle in the current world. Even if you consider real estate, a small fraction of the total and often held through loans, producing taxes and employing people to maintain it. We often hear this notion of "useless use of money" and there is truly very little of that.

Same about this "wealth" scary object being passed from one person to un-deserving heirs to the possible detriment of the rest of humanity. Who owns that wealth is very irrelevant: most of it is invested and very productive.

Who needs 20Mbit/s for Zoom? Are they sending 4K UHD from a pro DSLR?

My ISP (cable modem) was around 25Mbit/s down, 5Mbit/s up in the before times, and they've rapidly upgraded speeds a few times since the lockdowns, but mine's been max 20Mbit upstream, and no complaints. I've used every app there is for realtime meetings.

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362023-Zoom-sys...

Zoom recommended 3.8Mbit/sec. Most third parties recommend 5. 20 is ridiculous, and will allow for 3 of your kids playing Fortnite and Netflix all day while Dad's in meetings.

Next week's news: Nvidia prohibiting collateral loan agreements as part of their partner agreements. The last thing they want is a glut of these hitting the market due to bankruptcies.

But their sales team or other execs who have incentives to keep sales prices inflated for as long as possible will fight against such a move.
haha. fab, didn't realize that!
That's a strange way to frame it. Every skill is useful in some context. As a parent, I think a more productive way to think about it is to ask whether teaching kids anything is in line with your values. For me, I'd prefer if my kids were well rounded from being exposed to many different things, so they can make informed decisions later in life. That means they have lego mindstorms, but if they say they like tennis or they spend time drawing sidescroller games and not twirling to nutcracker ballet videos, then so be it. For some parents, laser focusing on something might be considered preferable.
surprised they couldn't get asset-backed financing for the new build. wonder if they just took a better rate this way. ceo says cheap way to access debt so i guess so

I find it very helpful, does code completion too and has a chat interface. You can select code and ask for refactorings, comments and whatever.
"Design" has a spectrum of level of detail, anything from a whiteboard full of information to a description of code in a fancy tool that is more detailed than the code itself.

Text (source code) as a representation of ideas can be worked on extremely efficiently at arbitrary detail. At low level of detail only beaten by a whiteboard.

If any piece of information has been missed when creating anything (any form of design or code), updating mutiple implementations of the same thing takes more effort than updating only one (the code).

Too many details in design will require frequent changes, with low level of detail it won't help much to detect missing pieces of the puzzle. Either way it adds effort.

Design has its advantages, lower total cost/effort in the short term isn't one though.
Yeah, I know...
I definitely disagree with you on the first point.

Setting aside the part that's just fussbudgetry, I think "proper" coding is about doing things that pay off in the long term even if they feel burdensome now. As an example, I'm a huge fan of good automated tests for long-lived code bases. But if I'm just writing a quick, throwaway script, then building a bunch of automated tests are going to slow me down.

Throwaway prototypes are another area where you can save a lot of effort if you have really committed to throwing the code away once you've learned what you set out to learn. As a physical analogy, before the Long Now built out their bar/cafe space in San Francisco [1], we spent a day in the raw space building furniture and walls out of cardboard and tape [2]. It let us get a real sense of how the designs would work in practice for actual use of the space.

In the past for a number of projects I've done throwaway prototypes and then started fresh with "proper" engineering, which for me usually includes pairing, test-driven development, and continuous deployment. I've also done ones where we think we understand it enough and just start building. And either way, we usually end up evolving ways to prototype on top of the existing platform via feature flags, etc, so we can learn something from the real world and then decide whether or not we want to refactor to accommodate a major change.

It's very different types of money. Both are dangerous but vc money is considerably less dangerous (imo). If you take someone like Fortress as your capital group (credit line) you're going to lose the company if you f up, period. With VC, you have more latitude to have a conversation. We ran a very difficult path to build DO, I'm sure a lot of people lost sleep many nights, but if you're very sure about the business, credit facilities can be helpful, just know they're not joke. Neither is better or worse than the other, they're different but both useful. My point was if you are sure about the business credit facilities can be really helpful and are under explored for many startups (granted HW is often a factor in credit)
This seems remarkable from someone who grew up in Toronto, where chunks of ancient forests (since the ice sheet retreated ~12kya ) are scattered everywhere.
Twitter essentially broke itself as a useful tool for me having used it primarily through Tweetbot for years.

Previously if I was having some issue, I could search for the @username of a company or service and find users sending messages that username from Tweetbot. Now if I search that on their web or X app I can't find any way to show what people are saying "to" that username. Instead I get that username's content or perhaps a reply from them to someone that seems to be stale.

So I spend almost no time there anymore, and as-such, no links from there are surfaced to other platforms.
Personally, I've never heard them. It's dead silent and i'm constantly running CPU intensive build pipelines and heavy CPU bound sql queries on it.
Lest we forget DotA was a Warcraft 3 mod to begin with…
I can tolerate 3 mg very well, 5 mg seems to be the bridge too far, where I wake up exhausted and lethargic.

I experimented with higher doses, such as 15 mg. They worked like sledgehammer to the forehead, with a weird feeling the next day. Not recommended. A good sleep mask and ear plugs are better than increasing dosage of melatonin, at least for me.

Here in CZ, melatonin is OTC.

This isn't a good test. You'd need to run a regex against the entire urls, not just domains.

But I bet that will accidentally match other things like maybe lemmy or threads or even tiktok?

Mastodon links not being distinctive is annoying because on mobile your viewer of choice can't catch urls, the url needs to load in the browser and then you might be suggested to re-open in your app of choice.

Is that why you commercialised ksplice?
Just because nobody made me sign an NDA for this: there are satellite companies using this for finding other satellites in eclipse. It's a pretty brilliant strategy if you want to dock with something and there's no usable visible light. You can make markings that appear clearly in LWIR by making dark parts shiny (see mostly empty space reflected) and light parts matte (see the thermal emissions of the spacecraft)
It seems like that would be very hard to get a consistent dose with such a small amount. Those cuts would need to be extremely precise. It would be more reliable to buy the 1mg children’s dose and cut them in half.
I'll admit I only skimmed this article, but I think that I have noticed this sentiment as a boon during software development: Sometimes I will find myself in a position where I need some level of sign-off or approval from the team about something I'm trying to do. If I ask for opinions without showing anything concrete it's often crickets. However, if I make a pull request (or even a couple pull requests show casing different options) then it's much easier to find out people's thoughts. It may be more work for me, but it's better than the paralysis feeling of not being able to move forward, and it also helps me really understand some of the options at hand.

I'm sure that you have no control over this but I really wish Spacelift would increase the cost of its cloud tier and lower the cost of Ent. I'm in the anti-goldilocks zone. Ent seems priced for large teams when I practically fit into the cloud offering sans missing a few required features.

Great product though from what I've experienced.
To quote Keynes, ironically, "in the long run, we are all dead", and even wealth that gets passed on to children is frequently frittered away. There is no guarantee of unending passive growth if society at large does not make productive investments. Plenty of countries have learned that the hard way. I think this is a bias of modern westernized countries for the last century.

"The economy improves and so assets do become more valuable, inevitably."
More pricey, no guarantees about more valuable though. Some assets may be entirely Ponzi-like and have little value, but a high price.

And anyway, if the economy is improving, homeownership / rent would be more affordable, families would only need one parent to work, the number of hours worked to buy S&P500 would be more reasonable, things like healthcare and education would be getting relatively cheaper. But artificially cheap margin debt, speculation, and financial chicanery backstopped by the central bank have lead to a lack of productive investment. Unusually high immigration and population growth without a corresponding increase in productivity causes higher prices too. Everything is getting harder from the point of view of Mr & Ms NoAssets 20-somethings who earn a wage.

The fixation of the tax-happy is on making the rich poorer in a dollar-net-worth sense. But there is no focus on making the poor richer in a purchasing power sense (what you can buy).

This requires a gradual deflation, higher reserve requirements, saving and careful investment. All currently very unpopular with the asset-rich, banker class, and thoroughly captured mainstream economics profession, who want you drowning in debt buying ever more expensive stuff, and not deferring consumption to the future.
Yeah, beech bark disease was actually introduced from Europe, to Halifax in the late 1800's. (well, i should say, the insect part was. The mechanism is that the scale insect creates an opening for the native-to-North America fungi in the Nectria genus to infect the bark). So the disease has been around in Europe (with local Nectria infecting) for much longer and my understanding was that European beech has better defenses and was more resistant, thought not entirely unaffected.

Not super up on the leaf disease, but it does appear that European beech can be as well.
I don't develop for GNUstep anymore, but I remember making scalable dock apps possible some decades ago.

You need to configure the size of icon windows in windowmaker WPrefs, the app then needs then to query the [[[NSApp iconWindow] contentView] bounds] that it was created with. There are almost certainly still some dockapps in existence that don't do that and just use hard coded sizes though. I know that the clock app AClock, implements it correctly.
I think the idea is that you would need to call ahead to any branch. Why not use one closer to the transaction.
