Go's good parts are basically the parts inherited from Bell Labs - the channels are an echo of Plan9's 9p protocol being used everywhere, and the style syntactically and in metaprogramming capability remains close to C, but with refinements like using Unicode. Which adds up to it being a decent language for making networked software and small "one-thing-well" utilities.

If it were actually used in production on Plan9, a lot of the idioms would become that much more powerful, as more of the interfacing glue could be handled by the shell and 9p namespaces, but as it is, it gets bogged down by compatibility issues.
Command dissidents to accept consensus (even if they disagree) is how you eliminate the possibility of dissidents. It's a contradiction.

Some do this to diversify. Not only are they getting the income from the single trick, but now they are getting it from courses, ad revenue, consultancy, and whatever else they can use the leverage on.

IMO that’s a smarter play than having zero income if the trick runs it’s course.
I don't see how this platitude adds anything to the conversation. What happened in the USSR does not excuse the American state enacting a less extreme version of it domestically. The red scare was a tragedy for those that were harassed by the state or excluded from certain positions.

Was child labor ever actually 'killed off'? As I understand it, its use declined before legislation hit, but even legislation never completely got rid of it. It just rebranded as "helping my family on a farm" or "helping my family shop" or "summer jobs" or similar.

Let's assume that having full control over your phone is a problem. Then the biggest issue lies with power management. A phone will try to power down any subsystem which seems to be underused and that doesn't play well with a server listening on a network socket all the time. So either you will have to disable power management negatively affecting the battery life or accept that most of the time your server won't be able to handle requests.
Great, that means we don't disagree

Because the entire point of the article is that hosting on mobile should be indeed more convenient and accessible.
> A 2021 review investigating different hypotheses behind the discrepancy of sexes in STEM jobs summarizes the greater variability research with respect to this question. Given that research finds greater variability in males with in quantitative and nonverbal reasoning,[32] they hold that this can explain some, but not all of the difference seen in STEM occupations.[33] With regard to the question of whether these results are due to societal influences or of biological origins, they hold that the results showing greater variance at a very young age (for instance IQ differences in variability between the sexes is visible from a young age on [34]) lend credence to the theory that biological factors might explain a large part of the observed data.

It's certainly falsifiable. Research could have shown no evidence of the variability. That didn't happen.

What are you looking for? Evidence as strong as the evidence in physics? No one gets that in the social sciences.

What annoys me is that in 10 years they will "discover" that the chemicals used to make paper water resistant enough to be a shitty straw, cause all sorts of cancers and disease.

A lifetime of avoided plastic straws will then be instantly cancelled out due to the absolute mountains of plastic waste necessary to provide healthcare treatment. Oh, and you also gave the person cancer or ruined their health.

You can already see the early signs - not that there will be political or media will to admit that their moronic approach is moronic:

https://cen.acs.org/environment/persistent-pollutants/Biodeg...

https://www.foodpackagingforum.org/news/contamination-found-...

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S00456...

And I'm only talking about the unnecessary disease caused in humans, not to mention what will probably be the environmental impact of adding new forms of chemical contamination to the ecosystem, some of which are of the with-us-for-a-long-ass-time variety. Unlike plastic straws, we are adding this in a dissolvable medium, which also seems like a particularly bad idea.

I do think the metal straws are a good idea though, they're just incredibly hard to clean. And of course, if you care about this stuff you should be avoiding all take out and disposable cutlery/tableware.
I still think "expense" is more appropriate than "tax".

The difference is that you get to blame someone else for a tax, but expenses are something you bring on yourself. Victim mentality.

Long story short, you wouldn’t take anything that would not align with your narrative.

A religious zealot.
When I say "Everyone" what I mean is, the vast majority of the scientific community in both those fields. Fringe ideas like this idea that we could have reached herd immunity in 3 months would have killed literally millions of people that didn't have to die. Especially true considering how quickly we were able to develop a vaccine.
Personally, I would not take this into consideration when deciding how much to pay people.

I recognize that there are a lot of different niches in our industry, and presumably in some of those niches this narrow focus on what technology is being used makes sense, but that hasn't been my experience.

In my experience, you want people who are both pragmatic and flexible about learning, evaluating, choosing, and teaching others new tools.

I do recognize this may be a somewhat privileged view. I think I've been fortunate to spend my career in organizations where software is the profit center rather than a cost center supporting the rest of the business. My experience is that these companies have focused their hiring, compensation, and performance expectations on fundamentals and figure-it-out-itude rather than any specific technology stack.

I find running uncontrolled experiments on a population without their consent highly unethical and immoral. The whole thing was unethical and immoral. And I have just as much of a right to that opinion as you on yours. Unfortunately society decided to force your opinion, despite being unproven, immoral, and unethical. It is the closest my country ever came to straight up facism. It was scary as fuck how people cheered it all on too.

We never should have mandated a single thing. It was perhaps the most evil thing humans have done. Especially what society did to children. What we did to children is absolutely shameful.
You're absolutely right.

And I am in academia so I'm not aware of what's being done in industry. I've heard people prefer conformal prediction since it is simple and distribution-free. Also, I recommend this fantastic article by Chip Huyen: https://huyenchip.com/2022/02/07/data-distribution-shifts-an...

None of this makes much sense. SARS-CoV-2 was discovered in Wuhan when local doctors noticed the unusual volume of sick and dying patients. The WIV's specialized knowledge wasn't necessary for that. The genome of SARS-CoV-2 was first published not by the WIV but by Professor Zhang Yongzhen at the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre:

https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/3052966/chin...

There's no evidence that the Vector Institute in Novosibirsk had any role in this. SARS-CoV-2 emerged in Wuhan, and the WIV had the world's biggest collection of novel sarbecoviruses sampled from nature, plus an unfunded proposal (DEFUSE) to engineer in a furin cleavage site. The Vector Institute had no significant coronavirology work.

Thanks for the name calling. But don’t worry I’m used to it by now. Your responses do a great job highlighting how naked fear coupled with intense propaganda can turn people into monsters.

I truly believe if one of “the experts” gave permission to physically harm dissenters like myself, my entire family would be dead. And the dudes who snitched me out (which includes you by the way) and executed me and my daughter would go to sleep with a smile on their face. And that is not hyperbole at all.

The fact so many otherwise smart people don’t see that is scary as fuck. Fear, tribalism and propaganda is a hell of a drug.

Sure I would. My company builds stuff with React, but that isn't what's important to what we do. It's just an implementation detail.

I mean obviously it depends on a bunch of other stuff in the resumes and during the interview process. But no, it's not a huge advantage to know React or have done front end development recently, just because we do some front end development in React. It's like the tenth most important consideration for whether someone would be a valuable contributor.

I don’t buy the basic premise of the post. Why should a mobile server be good thing? It is either a constant drain on the battery or a server that responds very rarely. I remember taking a mobile communication class in university in 2007 and it was full of acronyms and history of standards but had some interesting stuff to it, eg how networks using directional microwave antenna would not work after an earth quake.

However, one of the last topics was the problem of routing for mobile servers and how to find optimized path if both the client and the server frequently change physical locations. And I remember the professor saying how this is a big unsolved problem for the industry. I think it is just not something that many people would use in practice.

Using Jet.ai to Book Charter Jets
Thank you so much for your interest. Deep learning has had tremendous success recently but it often makes one important assumption, that is whatever data the model sees during deployment should be 'similar' to what it was trained on (aka in-distribution). Unfortunately, the real world is not static and constantly evolving, and so is the data we feed into the model. Equipping the model with the ability to say no when it is not familiar with the input is very important, especially when it comes to safety-critical applications.
Bags are like 0.10 cents. I agree there is hysteria over straws and bags, however, your opinion is undercut by hyperbole. But you knew that, your post was more about gloating over your perspective than contributing to the conversation.

Next time, please try to think what is the point of making a post. This one, for example, is an attempt to help someone realize their perspective is useful to share if it can be done in a manner consistent with community guidelines.

Hope you have a nice day :).

It's not about working hard. It's about working smart.

> So much opportunity is either created or destroyed by external circumstances that we don't perceive, let alone control

However, doing nothing guarantees failure. Some aspects of working smart:

1. doing the prep work so when opportunity does come your way, you are capable of taking advantage

2. placing yourself in a situation where opportunity can find you

3. learning to recognize opportunity (it often comes disguised as hard work)

4. be willing to take risks
During large storms sewage does end up in the bay and ocean. SF county has pretty active monitoring and you can view hotspots in almost real time. San Mateo samples weekly and their warnings follow a moving average so their don’t swim warnings are delayed. Linda Mar is pretty consistently borderline or unsafe by county standards, bad news for the tech bro kooks on here. Personally I just try to not touch the creek water and hope for the best.
I agree with all of this - and the skill that leaders need isn’t demonstrating (intermediates can do this), but coaching - this will help develop the team to be able to solve the issues themselves.
