of course, some regulation is good and some is bad. more regulation is not always bad as libertarians would have you believe.
this is absolutely not the experience we have when customers migrate to Pulumi, and I spend all day helping users undergo that transition.
Killing short sessions would be somewhat nice from a user perspective, but I think this is unrealistic as others point out. Instead, let's focus on what makes short sessions super obnoxious.

In theory I don't mind a fast and painless re-auth that doesn't hugely interrupt my flow. But the current implementations seem to be actively user-hostile and intentionally annoying.

My company has moved to Okta for most things. Fine. But the session expiration and re-auth mechanism is extremely maddening. It comes out of nowhere.

Right in the middle of doing work, I need to re-auth to {jira, github, google suite, whatever} without any warning. Github in particular makes you re-auth to each org independently even if trying to view OSS material that doesn't require auth to begin with.

And of course SSO flows break anchor tags in URLs so good luck if you already closed the link that had the necessary anchor information.

Then let's talk about Okta in particular requiring three separate pages and clicks for user, pass, otp (because a single form with all three is "insecure" in a meaningful way?). And then not respecting dark mode making an otherwise dark-friendly workflow have flashes of bright light at unpredictable times.

Sure, let's make regular re-auth a thing. I'd even do it once every X hours. But come on.

Let's make the re-auth schedule predictable (ugh google suite re-auth right in the middle of screen-sharing or doing deep work on a doc).

Let me pre-emptively re-auth everywhere all at once in a batch (pointing my finger at you, github).

Let's figure out a way to preserve anchor tags (javascript is a thing, sso sites could capture and sso providers could pass this through).

And dear god, Okta, please just support dark mode on your interstitials. I view that bright flash of light about 5 times per day now and it raises my cortisol levels and hurts my eyes every time.

I know TFA isn't about SSO flows, but SSO flows + short sessions highlight how annoying the end-result of this hodge-podge of auth is for users trying to do their job.

If there is demand for a thing and its exceeded such that people who want that thing can’t get it, just make more of that thing. Barcelona should build like Tokyo does until demand is satiated. The solution exists, people are just generally in favor of how things presently look and feel like and fear the unknown, so policies on land use tend to reflect these feelings.

Sorry? Are you a mind reader or something?
I used to use the term "Lambo vents" to describe gamer-gear excrescence. The inspiration was an Asus ROG laptop I actually used on a job that had deep, oddly-shaped fan exhaust vents that looked like the intake vents on a Lamborghini.

Turns out that ROG beast was a rebadged model formerly in Asus's Lamborghini co-branded line, intended to compete with Acer's Ferrari laptops.
Locals are incapable of that because property owners are the majority of voters and unwilling to vote against their own interests. Furthermore, if one municipality solves its affordability crisis a ton of people will move there and gobble up the affordable housing stock. It’s a problem that can’t be solved locally.
> I also wonder how well the sargassum bricks withstand weather.

In the video they mention the first house built using these bricks was in 2018. It's still standing and looks like it's in good condition. They also mention the homes they build with these bricks are strong enough to withstand hurricanes.
If you are a digital nomad you are still only occupying one space at a time.

Bigger picture though, there’s a major contradiction in housing around the world and that is that owners who tend to be older and more likely to vote benefit enormously from rising home prices and governments which collect property tax as a percentage of property value receive more revenue when prices rise. Both groups have grown to depend on perpetually rising property values and factored it into their long term financial plans. There are numerous ways this is achieved that vary somewhat from location to location but the result is the same. After years of housing simply eating up more and more of renters and new homebuyers income we are reaching a breaking point and governments are looking for something other than their own policies (which they have every intention of continuing) to blame.

Governments if so motivated have numerous tools at their disposal to reduce home prices, which all in all is probably easier than the reverse. There are a handful of governments which have successfully done this, but the ones that haven’t won’t do this because they’d simultaneously anger both property owners and recipients of government spending which would need to be cut.
I often do. I actually like the IDE, sometimes using it instead of Emacs with the Racket support.
I think you've successfully protected yourself against very dangerous information.

Had you read this stuff without first conceiving the notions that you did conceive, you would have risked being radicalized by the hateful, racist, misogynistic, islamaphobic, homophobic, Bidenophobic ideas contained in such literature.

It's a good thing that today we have both corporate and state-sponsored mass media available to create and attach these kinds of labels to dangerous information for us. It not only saves us time, but keeps us safe from exposure to harmful information.

I'm glad you were able to catch yourself before being exposed to these dangerous and radicalizing ideas.
They also expire faster when suspicious things happen, such as your IP address changing. Auth providers are pretty quiet about what they find "suspicious" — some are obvious, some are clever.
Yes, they're used in the rf power amplifiers. Both the X-band amps use tubes, and one of the pair of S-band amps does. The other is solid state. I don't know what drove this decision back then - they're presumably mission-critical so perhaps they were separately sourced.
"Uncaught (in promise) FirebaseError: Quota exceeded."
Interestingly, I went into this article thinking that "guess culture" would mean something along the lines of guessing what others want or what the right thing to do is, executing it, and revising after the fact based on feedback. Essentially, "It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission." I guess you can call this "do" culture. However, the article talks about guess culture as something else.

One of the most valuable skills I've learned in grad school is how to get good at using all three: guess, ask, and "do" culture. You really need all three in an environment like that to navigate complex admin tasks, raise money, pursue ideas, and be a normal, friendly, empathetic person to work and collaborate with.
I think the deeper point is that Go is a well-defined problem: it’s simple, the rules are fixed, and there’s no question of being able to determine success.

Driving a car has multiple problems which are all much broader, and some of your goals are at odds with each other (e.g. driving slower makes everyone safer but the owners won’t be satisfied & some situations like merges or unprotected turns may be intractable without a safety risk; you need to respond to police / fire fighters / construction flaggers but not pranksters or carjackers, etc.)

Nobody said you couldn’t solve Go without AGI. It’s still open for debate whether that’s true of driving.
I'm sorry that you don't appreciate hyperbole, but in Europe, public transport planning by Google Maps is quite often inferior to local services. And these local services do suggest water taxis here and there.

Also, typing in the destination still is cumbersome. I hope we can agree on that.

> in the rest of the world where it's affordable/free, most would hesitate to hire self-taught developers, even in web development positions.

I live in a country with free education and nobody cares about developer education, if said developer has some experience.

I, myself, dropped university in the last year (it was my mistake at that time, but whatever) and the only real issue it caused in my life is that I can't easily get work permission in Europe (and many other countries) if I would decide to immigrate there. And even then it's possible to compensate lack of degree with work experience, I just don't exactly know how it works, because most of my work so far is kind of "self-employed freelancer", so I have no idea how I would prove my work experience to the visa office.

That said, getting proper education is not a bad thing, it's just not very essential, at least in my experience.
>Regardless of the rules, or consistent FISC disapprovals, the FBI continues to act in a way that shows no regard for privacy and civil liberties

The FBI cannot act. Only it's members can act. And there's no reason to suppose that their malfeasance will stop if it isn't punished.
> If your app lives in a vacuum I don't see why you'd ever need to upgrade the framework.

Unfortunately the only apps that live in a vacuum are embedded apps not connected to the internet. We should all be monitoring our dependencies for security upgrades. Eventually even a stable framework like Django goes out of long term support. I wrote a Django app in 2008 that is still in heavy use today and at some point had to go through and upgrade to a new major version. It wasn’t a breeze, it took me a few weeks. To leave the app live on that 10 year old version would have been irresponsible for security reasons. The only apps that live in a vacuum are embedded apps, like the one in a vacuum cleaner.

To sum up:

'Cured' and 'uncured' are weird artifacts of the US Agriculture Department's labeling requirements and refer to the source of the nitrates/nitrites used to cure the product, not their amount or type. Cured and uncured bacon are the same thing.
As an American, I view it as an option to start a light conversation. You can decline the option with a simple "Good, thanks", or you can genuinely answer with a light comment and see if the other person reciprocates. Answering with a particularly serious topic will likely catch the other person off guard, so people avoid that, but to say Americans don't actually mean it when they ask how are you misses some of the nuance of the situation.

There are important contextual and regional difference that apply too. You're more likely to get a genuine reply in a place like the rural Midwest than you are in NYC. You also are more likely to get a genuine reply from a person relaxing at a bar than the cashier at a fast food drive through window. There are many people who will take the question as an invitation to talk if the situation is right.

How does he respond to the 1971 [1] argument? That whole page is alluding to the ending of the Bretton Woods system. Until 1971 the USD was directly convertible to gold at a fixed rate. This was supposed to prevent bad economic behavior because if we weakened the dollar too much (by e.g. 'printing' money), then people/countries could 'bankrupt' the US by converting all their USD to gold. Of course we [shockingly] did print too much money, defaulted on our obligations, and gave the rest of the world a 4 finger salute. A famous quote from Nixon's treasury secretary at the time: "The dollar is our currency, but it is your problem."

I find the consumer price index 1775-2012 quite interesting. It's really easy to see how nearly everything listed there could be directly, and very likely causally, linked to giving the US government the power to start printing tens of trillions of dollars. Because that money invariably makes it to the most well off in society, even on the rare instance when it starts somewhat lower. If not one has to come up with an alternative explanation for what happened at that time, because it's like in 1971 that were just a button pressed saying, "start destroying socioeconomic stability."

> In municipal gov especially.

I wish. Although I guess this could be location dependent. But I think I know what you are talking about. I'm in Central Europe. Municipal workers are usually a bit better than workers in the private sphere. But people suck at their job, with almost no exception. They have no idea what they are doing, but if you point it out, than you will get burned. But of course, in the past decade or two the word "responsibility" has disappeared (or at least its meaning has changed significantly). As long as you do the very bare minimum, you will get a positive feedback, that reinforces that you are the master of not sucking (even though unfortunately it is not true).

I stopped caring about what others are doing. I do pay attention to it, but ultimately I concentrate on my own work, so I can be proud of it. It took a long time learning doing this, and sometimes I still mess up. But ultimately I don't think that there is any other way. Unfortunately.
Were the Democrats to move to adjourn without a pro-forma session, every Republican + Joe Manchin and Krysten Sinema would vote against it, since it would end-run their hostage-taking on nominees. (The GOP led House would also object, and their consent is usually required for a recess sufficient to trigger recess appointments, but that disagreement itself would allow the President to use the extraordinary, and never yet exercised, power of his office to declare an adjournment in the case of a disagreement between the houses of Congress on the matter, so while it would be a major escalation to bypass it, the House objection wouldn’t be insurmountable — the failure of a majority in the Senate, though, would.)

(Still think they should do it, even though it would be a break from long-established [0] practice, but it wouldn’t have any practical effect other than setting up another debate for the next election.)

[0] long enough to be a bipartisan norm, actually not that long in historical terms.
There are millions of people with cgms that drink soda with artificial sweeteners that see no spike in their blood sugar.

The irony being of course, that huge flat slabs are not somehow inherently more "functional" than something with a handle, or a screen that doesn't break, or a back that doesn't scratch etc.

We just kind of hand-wavy announce that anything boring, sleek, or rectangular is "functional". It's not.
Yes but there are laws regarding using hearing if you have it (iirc?). Ie I want to say headphones are illegal here if you’re driving.
Some big auth providers throw in a few extra signals too. Your IP address changes? That might hurry up expiration a little. Your user agent changes? Big red flag. Etc.
> Nobody is pretending that solar can provide electricity via night time generation.

The OP appeared to be suggesting exactly that.

It's like the (many) solar advocates who pretend that a solar nameplate capacity of x watts is equivalent to a conventional nameplate capacity of x watts, when in fact you're going to need 2x watts at a minimum, with an expensive storage system on top of that.
This sounds like some hyperbolic framework nonsense. First of all I/O just means access to an API. I am going to presume you mean messages from a network.

In that case a message from a network either sends or fails and in the case of sending try/catch does nothing for you but provide an error object, and you don't need try/catch to capture the error. In the case of receiving a network message the message comes in or it doesn't. If the message does come in and is malformed your application should be mature enough to handle that appropriately to the benefit of the user instead of crapping out some error messaging to the console. You don't need try/catch to do any of this. A simple if condition is more than sufficient.

You should check for everything. You only need to check for one thing and if you check for it you are already at 100% of everything. Did you get what you expected: Yes/No?

Frankly, give me Japan's rail system any day of the week. You can get across Tokyo, with multiple changes, and plan your arrival to the minute. Try that in NYC, London or any other city !

And as for the Shinkansen, it puts most other country's railway systems to shame.

Fun fact (IIRC): The headway (time between trains) is consistently down to something like 1m50s during rush-hour on Tokyo subway. It's nuts how freaking punctual the system is !
> So a reaction to what was itself once the challenger and is now the incumbent seems reasonable.

I agree with everything you've said, but would just point out that the pendulum has perhaps started swinging in the other direction: a lot of folks in the design world are starting to push back against the associated minimalist/functionalist aesthetic that has taken over much of the world: it can make our built environments feel sterile, boring, and robotic.
The average crypto bro might be more against iris scanning than the general population.
Those poor fools got a premium rate for this to happen. Like, the entire point of AT1 bonds is this can happen. Other banks have AT1 bonds, and I think they have also been written down.

Far from the Swiss government pulling a bait and switch, the point of AT1 bond is to have privatized safety net like how it is being used.
>I'm not sure making people live in tower blocks just so that more people from other countries can move here is all that fair of a solution

The only forcing going on in London is handing over between 30-50% of your paycheck just to have a roof over your head.

Nobody would have to be forced to live in an apartment. You just have to build them and people will rent or buy them.

As I said, unless you want to take this to a racist place it's not an issue of immigration. Not in the UK anyway.

>TBH property oligarchs would favour high migration

Yes, thats why the Tory party effectively used xenophobia to garner votes while simultaneously increasing net migration to the UK. It was all about throwing a racist bone to their voters who were heavily swayed towards UKIP before betraying them.

Atari Email Archive (archive of messages sent at Atari from 1983 to 1992.)
The e-mail archive of one Atari Engineer, Jed Margolin, who worked in the CoinOp division of Atari. Jed was a hardware engineer at Atari from 1979 to 1992, and these messages comprise his inbox while he was at Atari.

With permission, the owner of this site, Vikram Oberoi, curates the archive, including pointing at interesting threads. There was no threading in the VAX email system they used, Vikam links together the threads.

Neither Jobs or Wozniak are mentioned, they left before these threads. But there are interesting topics like layoffs, piracy, residuals, pop culture, babies, etc.

(Those babies should be into their 30s now. Wonder if any are reading here.)

This interaction illustrates my thought on the wisdom of supporting two language 'profiles'.

It seems like the 'small' profile matches what I expect from Scheme's brand: useful minimalism.

The 'large' profile seems off-brand. I get why it would be useful to have a Python-like experience (where 80% of problems can be solved with the stdlib), but doesn't that describe Racket?

I'm not suggesting that a batteries included standard Scheme would be a bad thing. It's just that it pretty much already exists (Racket started as a Scheme).
Maybe look into how many launches are needed to loft fuel to send just one can to Mars. And, how many passengers, realistically, fit in a can on a 9-month (note, not 6-month) trip, with supplies for the trip. Hint, not 100, and not 20. Hopefully the supplies needed to survive there are in other cans already there. Literally nothing there is worth exporting except maybe reality TV; not cans, and not even just engines taken off the cans. Never mind homesick colonists.

Pressure suits for everybody on board might be crammed in, but more likely just two or three to use collecting more from cargo ships already landed.
