Wow. When someone is that much of a prick, they become a one-dimensional stereotype.

The problem with asshole-led corporations is they, surprise, reward assholes. Civilized workplaces make a principled effort to kick out the assholes and find competent, productive people with normal-sized egos that can fit through the hangar doors.

> Also, that guy is a fucking psychopath.

Ahaha. Reminds me of the 6 Sigmas from "30 Rock". The 3 main organizational morale killing personality traits are bullying, depression, and low impact. And the problem is most organizations promote the opposite of each in reverse order, often forgiving bullying and harassment when there is $ignificant impact.

I think the legal concept of mens rea or a similar concept is applicable here. For example, I'm a type one diabetic and will cut off a friendship with people who vote republican because they agree I should not be able to afford insulin. My grandparents vote republican because taxes and don't consider the other effects.

Basically it comes down to intent and knowledge for me. If causing harm is part of why someone voted a specific way I think that it's fair to hold them partially accountable for that harm then it is carried out.

My guess at the Postman-alikes. Postman has evolved way past its original usefulness and is aggressively trying to push enterprise features and anything to make the business sustainable. I'm not mad at them for that but eventually you remember that you just wanted a graphical curl to mess with, not a team secret manager with workspaces and a test runner etc.

The basic functionality starts off pretty easy to build so there's a large pool of people who decide to take a crack at it.

Yep. The "tiny" model gave you a single 64KB segment shared by both code and data. And the "small" model was the one where there was one 64KB segment each for code and data.

IIRC, with the tiny model you could often compile those to .COM files where MS-DOS would pick a free segment, load the file to the 0x100 offset, set all the segment registers to it, set the stack pointer to 0x0, and jump to the start at 0x100. Super simple (not even an executable header)!

I don't see anything in that link about increasing unemployment in order "suppress wages". Milton Friedman's comments are about monetary policy. Unemployment can be decreased by increasing inflation, but Friedman thinks thats a bad idea. He not arguing that anyone should "gun" for that unemployment rate, but rather that it should be accepted as the "natural" result of an elastic market.

Anyone who is even slightly interested should check out ABANA for a blacksmithing group in your state [1]. Blacksmiths are, in general, very friendly and willing to share. Several times a year they have weekend meet-up at campgrounds and such that are also a great time. They usually offer classes, too.

The hobby can be very technical, or very artistic, depending on what you find interesting and focus on.

For TCP sockets I'd rather just MSS clamp on the internet gateway. On top of too many things just dropping PMTUD, enabling it results in a slower process while MSS clamping hijacks the initial TCP open messages directly.
Personally I don't know why people aren't just using a local recursive DNS resolver rather than external services like this. I wonder when the root servers etc will start supporting DoH/DoT.

Love jq. Solved many problems

But at one point I started write long jq modules and while it was pretty straightforward, there are less people familiar with jq.

So I declared jq bankruptcy and rewrote it as a nodejs script. The rest of the team was relived
> If we can't debate against nazism or slavery and win in the eyes of the audience, on democratic terms, I guess it is to late to be "intolerant of intolerance" and democracy has already failed.

Probably, yes. Democracy is bad at edge cases (Hitler was democratically elected) and undemocratic means must sometimes be used. Deplatforming is pretty mild as far as undemocratic means go.

Such is life.

I would consider making S3 the source of truth and mirroring your data to a regular server with a bunch of SSDs. If egress is substantial this may save you money. (When I built encodeproject.org AWS egress fees made it worth putting in a stateless proxy server so we only paid the lower Direct Connect fees.)

A 4U server with 24 8tb 2.5” $400 consumer sata ssds is probably the best bang for the buck. Probably about $20k plus hosting fees. That’s 192TB of storage.

> Office space is the single most expensive line-item on most companies financials

Is it? Not payroll? Expensive commercial real estate in the US rents for $80/sq ft/year (source: https://www.matchoffice.com/news/rental-rates-for-commercial...). Tech workers are generally factored in at using 250 sq ft (source: https://web.mit.edu/e-club/hadzima/how-much-does-an-employee...). So, $20k per year, per employee for rent in the most expensive cities in the country. How can that possibly be more expensive than payroll?
> It's interesting to think what might have happened had Germany abandoned any aims on a massive navy and focused all those resources on it's army instead. My hunch is no mis-alignement with England and a very different looking world today if that happened.

I don't think so. The biggest mistake Germany made was letting its alliance with Russia lapse in 1891, in favor of trying to snag an alliance with the UK, which wasn't interested in one (Britain favored a policy of neutrality on the continent). This leads France to seize the opportunity and ally with Russia in 1894. A series of colonial issues leads the UK to realize around 1900 or so that not having any allies wasn't exactly a good thing, especially when you've got lots of people you're butting heads against.

Wilhelm was an absolute wrecking ball when it came to diplomacy. His tendency to show support for anyone fighting the British in colonial ventures in the late 1890s (especially the Boer War) couldn't have helped any chance for a UK-German alliance. It's only after tentative attempts to come to an agreement break down in 1901 that the naval arms race actually becomes an issue in UK-Germany relations: indeed, it's not really until dreadnoughts make the existing fleets (lopsidedly in favor of the UK) obsolete that German navy buildup actually poses a threat to the UK. The treaties the UK does enter into are less military alliances than they are colonial tension defusing, and Wilhelm's tendency to do the opposite would have likely made any formal UK-Germany treaty rather short-lived.

The naval arms race mostly takes place after the UK-German treaty attempts ended, and redirecting that money to a larger army would probably have pushed UK even harder into the Franco-Russian camp: during its period of continental isolation, its greatest fear is that of a second Napoleon, who conquers most of Europe and shuts the British out of it. A stronger German army makes that look more plausible, and aligning against Germany helps avert that catastrophe.
Not OP, but have worked in a similar situation run by ex-Amazon leadership. Project leaders focus mainly on writing docs on their "ideas". These docs are then spread around to other project and org leaders. Most of their time is spent reading or commenting on these and planning meetings for feedback. Typically the last people to read these documents are engineers who then have to make sense of and build whatever was laid out in the documents. Many times after all this is done the project is then shelved or engineering shuts it down so it was a waste of time.

Project managers can then point to these documents as promotion material and take credit for "leadership".

Obviously I'm being a bit harsh here and that in no way represents the average - but it is something I've seen too often.

Both Amazon and Google have document writing cultures. If you want to propose an idea, you write a doc about it.

The value of a doc writing culture is that writing things down encourages rigor and thoughtfulness. Docs can be widely distributed, and you can read it, think about it, and add comments. Exchanging ideas can be asynchronous rather than meeting oriented.

But also it can all get a bit carried away (because these artifacts become an important component to promotion).

I work at Google, which is a doc culture. But I worked most of my career at startups where we never wrote anything down. Overall, I prefer doc cultures. But yes, left to it’s own devices it can seem like you are working at a doc factory.
Fundamentally, I don't see a way to frame the A.I. generated child porn problem in a way that doesn't apply to a lot of other legal things. Maybe you could say it inspires people to go and do X, Y, and Z to children, but then you opened up the "crime is transitive" gates, and you now have to outlaw a wildly long list of things normal people consider innocuous simply because someone sick likes them the wrong way.
This would be expected unless it is smart enough to solve all of the mysteries of existence, which would be...weird.

> once you do SO_RCVBUF the auto-tuning is out of the picture for that socket

Oh I didn’t realize this. That explains the switch in limits. However:

I would have liked to keep auto-tuning, but only change the max buffer size. It’s still weird to me that these are different modes with different limits and whatnot. In my case, I was parallelizing tcp and capping the max size would have been better, and instead varying the number of conns.

I gave up on it. Especially since I need cross platform user-space only, I don’t want to fiddle with these APIs that are all different and unpredictable. I guess it’s for the best anyway, to avoid as much per-platform hacks as possible.

"Old format revivals - does your music tone really sound better in mp3?"

Your original comment amounted to "It's working as documented, see here and here". But arguably the question was "Why does it work in this baffling way?"

Certainly that's how I interpreted it -- and while I didn't downvote your answer explaining that this weird footgun is actually documented behaviour, I got no value from either that information or your tone, which read to me as a little dismissive ("It's pretty clearly documented [, you lazy/incompetent person who didn't bother to look this up yourself]").

Good is a non-productive asset. If you buy gold and just hold it, you earn nothing, especially if the price never goes up. Good just sits there tying up your money. If you buy gold low from people willing to sell at a discount (e.g. cash for below market gold jewelry), then you sell at full retail value, you’re making money.
Sure, how isn't that always the case? I mean, I've never heard of a company where the management was stellar but the engineering sucked.

I also love gron, if nothing else to find the paths I need to use with jq later.

But ChatGPT has genuinely solved my suffering writing jq, it does a pretty good job. It even almost replaces gron, if you feed it an exmaple json and ask for jq, it gives you something. It usually needs a little adjusting but it gets me 90% of the way there and saves me a bit of time.

I rarely use it for much else but its a jq winner :)
So from some choice examples I've seen on the fediverse, I think It is less a replacement for abusive material as a stand-in in public venues for the more illegal stuff they trade in private. You will find examples (please don't go looking, mind you) on unmoderated servers of users sharing AI generated CSAM who proudly declare themselves as "pro-c" or pro-contact with minors.

Which is to say, it might be a reasonable argument if it was indeed being used by people coping with a disorder in a less harmful way, but it appears to be more often a way to share their interest in abusing children.

Historically, blacksmiths of one sort or another were involved in making almost every tool prior to the industrial revolution.

My totally unreserved guess is that there are not very many on a per capita basis, but there are probably about 10-50 working smith's per state. They do architectural work, historical pieces, education, sculpture, and all sorts of other stuff, if you include farriers (who deal with shoeing horses, but it's really a more technical trade that deals with horses gaits and health).
I'm saying for what you call a "retirement colony," there are dozens of businesses in which the vast majority of the tech industry actually work. Blind is where spoiled rich people complain about being rich in the wrong way.

This is exactly right, and Marx opposed revolutionary efforts in pre-industrial Russia (e.g. the Russian Revolution). He did advocate Russian support of revolution in Germany, but saw no use in revolution in pre-capitalist society.

Capitalism has no concern about power. It only speaks to ownership rights.

I am not saying to stop sending some emails around and try to acquire third party IP permissions, but perhaps a contact to the IP rights might come out of the woodwork and speed up the processes if you release what you can while you are waiting.

Since this is mostly for historical interest, note what the IP is and what they do, for libraries, perhaps somebody will find a substitute or a version of library with similar functionality without the limitation. For images/sound just include blank ones of the proper dimensions/length and the same filename, if there is enough interest they can be remade.

Just to give you an idea of of the lengths preservationists are willing to go, people in the retroreversing community they are spending months to years converting by hand opcodes of binaries to annotated assembly or C code that compiles byte identically, a few non included IP bits shouldn't be much of a blocker to retro enthusiasts.

GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp. The key benefit of GGUF is that it is a extensible, future-proof format which stores more information about the model as metadata.
> Instead they should be making public transport more attractive

Indeed, and the article itself agrees with you - the headline is deceptive. Without any specifics, the actual quote from the transport minister is about improving intermodal transport, saying "We must make it more attractive to travel by public transport, cycle, and walk."

The Aesthetics of Videogames
From the review:

"For anyone interested in the philosophy of games in general or of videogames in particular, this volume is absolutely essential reading. It is also an important contribution to the interdisciplinary field of game studies, as well as to aesthetics and the philosophy of art more generally. While readers would benefit from antecedent familiarity with the book-length works mentioned in the first paragraph of this review, as well as other influential discussions such as Juul's (2005) theory of videogames and Kendall Walton's (1990) influential work on fiction, the volume remains accessible from start to finish."
Yes. Although making IC tracks is great and all, the power to get big things done involves organizing and leading people, so the natural state will be that a leadership career will go higher than a technical career on average. And balancing that is putting a hand on the scale (takes continuing effort) and indeed is a political or strategic decision, so it is up to the leaders to implement!

That said in 2023 you can go a long way into upper middle class and rich without needing to lead people, or kill them in wars, and still do creative and non-repetitive work. So we are very lucky to live in this era!
