there are a million “shoulds”. just because you know most of them or can afford to account for them on every release doesn’t excuse google for the maintenance nightmare that the android ecosystem is.

I think, to a large extent, they don't attract decent talent. The sites are barely functional from a monetization POV.

OF, for example, leaves stacks of money on the table by not having a functioning recommender engine. OF artists are almost always discovered and promoted on platforms like Twitter, which DO have finely tuned recommender systems, but it seems like such an inefficient way of going about things.
thanks for doing this. I could see this becoming a part of my workflow long term.

Short-sighted companies with high turnover probably won't see the benefits, companies that actually give their employees careers definitely will. It is all about potential, what is 8 weeks of internship if you expect your employees to stay for a decade or more? It may not be the culture of Silicon Valley, but the Silicon Valley culture is more the exception than the norm (at least for decent companies).
Many people say that markets fundamentally can't do that. If you think a market can, could you explain? (If they can, that would by far be the easiest coördination approach: we understand markets quite well.)

I like this framing. That's because it seems like a working carbon market is a must have to hit decarbonization goals. Therefore it's a question not of "if", but "how". And a lot of the current "how" is probably best priced close to zero.

Lots of opportunity here for entrepreneurs.
GDP/capita typically measures economic wealth and is typically used to compared economies. "Median income" does not account for cost of living which can explain how Mississippi can have a higher quality of life despite a lower median income.
yes helpful. Developmental biology is a very sophisticated discipline, most people require years of post doc study, in order to attain a global understanding of the topic.

And you can shortly get that 1.85 GHz 3-wide OoO in a 64 core chip, on single- and dual-socket motherboards (64 or 128 cores), with quad-socket coming soon. I've been using such a machine via ssh since March, customer deliveries will start in a couple of months.

When I went to Osaka Castle, the tour info tells you that the building itself is basically a replica of a castle that was sacked and then rebuilt, multiple times over the centuries. The inner and outer baileys -- the stone fortifications -- are original, but the castle itself, which was originally made of wood, is brand new in relative terms.

The Japanese don't remain attached to their buildings, usually because their buildings have been historically likely to be destroyed by earthquake, typhoon, fire, or invasion. In more recent years, yeah -- houses a few decades old will be knocked down to make way for new developments and no one bats an eyelash, but it's because Japanese culture sort of respects the ephemerality of all things, especially manmade things -- one way or another, any given building is going to fall on a timespan of 30-60 years.

I think you two are saying different things. Agree that the existing products for decarbonization have a lot of room for improvement.

Some solutions include:

1. Stopping the dumping

2. Pay the full cost of the impact of any dumping that does happen. In your analogy, this would mean the longer you leave the river polluted, the more you have to pay to clean it up.

Several reasons:

- Until recently, Firefox did not support VA-API video acceleration on Linux, while mpv supported it for a long time. My last computer struggled to play 1080p videos without hardware acceleration.

- I am used to mpv keybindings, i do not want to use two completely different sets of keybindings for playing local videos and Youtube.

- I like videos in a separate window (this feature Firefox started to support recently as PiP mode).

> saved, bought land, and slowly built their house.

That's what I'm trying to do now. It seems like there is opposition of some kind every step of the way. For example, it isn't uncommon to have a time limit on your building permit. So you can't just slowly build. And you can easily end up buying land that you're not allowed to build on at all. And I'm not just talking about zoning.
Yeah sorry will address it directly. Graphweaver is different in a number of ways:

- Graphweaver is not just Postgres, you can run it connected to only MySQL
- Graphweaver can connect to one or more datasources. You can even connect both MySQL and Postgres together. Sounds crazy but could be good for a migration.
- Graphweaver has two layers the API layer and the Data layer. Both of these are represented by coding classes in Typescript. You have full control over how these are exposed and defined in the entity files.
- Graphweaver does not automatically reflect the database. Instead you run an import command in our CLI tool that creates Typescript class files for your database. From there you can edit them as needed.
More common seems to be use of a launch system of a catapult or slingshot, where early-phase acceleration is provided by ground-based infrasturcture. This can be extremely basic, e.g., surgical tubing and a support framework. The Zipline drone-based delivery system utilises this, as well as parachute-based drops (its payloads, unlike those of the Ukrainian drones, are presumed to be shock-sensitive), and a dragline-based capture mechanism (not required for one-way flight missions). Zipline's catapult accelerates the drone from 0 to 60 kph in 0.3s: <https://yewtu.be/watch?v=jEbRVNxL44c&t=3m50s).

Those drones, incidentally, have a 6 kg payload capacity and 160 km range (one-way).

But yes, staging or jettisonable batteries might be another option, at an increased complexity cost.
2023 Summer Rewind
I think the word “ennui” was almost invented to describe rural Japan. There is a mesmerizing, eerily graceful sense of decline.

In a lot of other rural places on Earth, even if they are in poverty, there is usually a decent amount of activity even if some buildings are abandoned. There are families (often very large ones with many kids), drunk hooligans, outgoing salt of the earth types.

Rural Japan in contrast is quiet, mostly elderly, and more culturally “refined” at least on its face. And if you go wandering around, even as a very conspicuous foreigner, because of the language barrier and general cultural introversion, the few people you do see will mostly politely ignore you or not initiate conversation. Similarly while buildings may be abandoned and overgrown with plants there is usually very little trash (not counting what was simply left there, think more like plastic bags and empty beer bottles from teens hanging out) and no graffiti.

Other places that may be obviously in decline have evidence of a future and continued habitation, even if bleak, from young people vandalizing abandoned places, families going about their day, and confused middle aged folks trying to ask why you are even visiting their place and if you’re lost. In rural Japan, especially if you don’t speak Japanese, it’s more like you are a ghost wandering around a place resigned to evaporate, whose remaining inhabitants stoically continue on their peaceful day to day.

We can't do Hollywood style compensation because we rely on actually functional computers which are obviously incapable of Hollywood math.

More seriously, we need to make sure the entire team is getting the goodies. Even your fairy-tale 1000x developers depend on good ops/infrastructure, support and QA and clever management; if they can only hire on McStaff warm bodies, they're massively hobbling those "ridiculously compensated" devs.
Funny enough, that's probably the worst way to convince engineers due to the belief that is rooted in this field which is both rockstar qualities and a false sense of security due to companies (so far) overpaying to reduce talent pools. So bringing up support staff and sales usually results in the mindset that they should just switch fields.

Instead talk about sports unions, like the NFL Player Association, and that usually gets them re-evaluating all they've been previously understanding about unions.

The job we have to do is rapidly decarbonize our economy and also remove billions of tons of carbon already in the air. This pursuit is likely in the trillions of dollars in our lifetime.

These are good points, but I think it highlights the larger issue in how humans meddle with nature and attempt to be its curator. We'll rarely get it right because nature is a system we don't understand, and we harmed it indiscriminately and then have tried to retrofit nature on top of our constructions.
I’ve no doubt they did. Shame about the illiterate plebs begging nearby though.
Big surprise, the old adage "it's all about the people" rings true.

I'd guess this is also an area where the Dunning–Kruger effect and misaligned developer incentives are involved. Inexperienced teams are more likely to take on reinventing the wheel. When you're starry eyed it can sound fun, plus its a great opportunity to do some resume building.

But as folks become more experienced, they can end up salty and disheartened. If you've been around the block a few times writing your own database might no longer sound so exciting. Plus life has become comfortable, you've mastered the tools and aren't really all that interested in taking risks so it's easier to just recommend IBM or Oracle.

Both scenarios aren't really all that great.

Maybe Jane Street and their ilk are just better at rewarding risk while simultaneously providing strong mentorship opportunities (I see the intern projects).

> GDP/capita typically measures economic wealth and is typically used to compared economies.

I believed that the top level comment of 'mustafa_pasi was more focused on the effects of unions on employee outcomes, rather than on national-level outcomes. So I chose to continue that. Perhaps I was wrong. If we're asking the question: "Should I, as a selfish individual, support increasing unionization?" we can come to a different conclusion than "Should I, as a massively powerful national leader entrusted with the perpetuation of my nation and its ability to deal with existential threats, support increasing unionization?"

What evidence is there that unions turn into guilds? There were more guilds in preindustrial times and modern unions haven't become guilds.
One way to see wordiness:

When you’re speaking, whatever your thoughts are have to come in the order that you think them, because people are used to being interrupted and therefore don’t want to stop talking to pick the right wording. So they say things in a very long way, just as they thought of them, in a disorganized jumble not dissimilar to this paragraph.

Writing, however, can be edited to make points clearly, without irrelevant detail, and logically ordered.
I think youre are romanticizing this far too much here.

They have a massively ageing population, which is the true problem.

In 2060, over 40% of the population will be pensioners requiring payouts, according to the japanese health ministry.

And yes, they have low birth rates and no population growth (whether via immigration or otherwise). This is actually going to bite them at some point.
Well us software engineers can look at some of the ways that unions are run, and decide for ourselves if we like those "benefits".

For example, seniority requirements and enforced degree or qualification requirements don't sound like something I would want, nor would the many other software engineers like myself who didn't go through the "proper" path of getting a CS degree.
