I'm not sure what part of the passenger jet they'd crash into, but ramming head on into the cockpit might give you the the best success rate if you have enough time to get into position.
It’s not reagonomics it’s just the opposite. Whatever party you align yourself with, just think of the power the other party would use to stifle speech that they don’t agree with.

I have a lot more power not to use Chrome or Android than not to be under the rule of a hostile government.

Whether it’s the religious right who are in control of one party or Tipper Gore going after rap music in the other party, do you really want the government controlling the web?

Reagonomics was about thinking the government is incompetent. I think the government is hostile.

I think this time the emerging interest is that by leading the effort of and controlling most of the infrastructure for establishing a long term, potentially permanent presence on the Moon, the US can dictate the terms of these first realistic international agreements on the resource rights on foreign bodies. The next closest adversary who is a contender technology-wise for establishing a similar presence is China, so you can imagine that all the issues with them are involved too.

Plus, to a smaller extent there's the idea behind Artemis that all this is a staging ground for our eventual trips to Mars (which, due to the mechanics of it, would have to be a long term thing), where of course the big interest is that it would be another monumental event in human history and politicians would very much like for that to be associated with their name (hell, part of Artemis' motivation was just that they promised to put boots on the Moon before the end of Trump's assumed second term, allowing him to claim to have been the one to oversee America's return to the Moon).

Good explanation. Hobbiest switched. Because IIS and Asp.net run very well with VB.NET. but who could afford that compared to PHP.
Sun is not a great compare because it didn't have the type of network the author lays out. There was a relatively small market in Sun-only software, for example, and a smaller set of people who exclusively programmed for Sun hardware.

If I were forced to use Sun as a comparator, I would say their supremacy in the general-purpose high-end Unix workstation niche was never toppled, but that niche declined to irrelevance in popularity. The takeaway from that analogy here would be Nvidia is in trouble if people stop using GPUs in AI applications.

">It's interesting to me that people bring up 'The Dot Com Bubble' as an example of empty hype, when in fact, investing in the Internet even at the peak (deploying capital proportional to 1999 market caps) has one of the best IRR's in the history of time (Amazon, eBay/PayPal, eTrade, etc.)."

Do you have a source for this claim? Like, you or someone else has a market cap dataset of 1999 web companies and their market cap, including such 1999 darlings as stanlee.net, pets.com, etc. And you or someone else calculated the perormance of a .com portfolio circa 1999 if held for some time period past 1999?

That sounds like a dubious claim, especially because there isn't a clear line between a .com company and a non .com company. I recall related tech companies were also part of the .com hype cycle.

Ingesting non-public data that matches the format that will be used during ingestion during implementation so inference will be more accurate is my reason.
We can ignore everything except the last sentence because convenience is all it boils down to. Protecting yourself is annoying. It's annoying in part because companies like Google make it annoying on purpose. They make so much insane money from preventing people from protecting themselves (from Google) that they fund their competitors to buy public goodwill.

Even if you somehow think that Mozilla is as bad as Google, which, to me, is a ridiculous notion, you can still choose the lesser of two evils. At the end of the day Mozilla is a foundation, a legal entity which is driven by its mission[0], and Google is a corporation, a legal entity which is driven by profit and data collection. And there are also tons of other browsers that are less bad than the worst one.

To choose Chrome is, again, to bend over backwards to justify continual use of an abusive tool, in the name of convenience.

Ah, but "the problem with the world today is that everyone else doesn't believe what my religion teaches" has an enormous feature that your arguments do not:

It gives the one who holds this belief the comfort that _they_ have done everything that can and everything they should; all that is left is to be publicly smug. This is much easier to do than engaging closely with complicated ideas, and crucially can never result in deciding that it's necessary to go through the pain of changing one's own behavior or beliefs.
Wow they used real servers. That goes pretty well with their lack of a dev/test environment. And they had hard coded references to infrastructure, because they were always in a hurry improving their product. Extending that character limit took 500k engineering person years, including the devops team. Great job!

Really, Musk sounds like an amusing guy to work with. "Fuck, let's do it" is an attitude more execs should take.
I go back and forth on the usefulness of Diataxis and related information frameworks—Mark Baker (of EPPO fame) has an interesting series[1] about the DITA equivalent of task, concept, and reference:

> If there is a problem with DITA, then, it is not that it lacks a theory of information design. The problem is that many people actually believe that it does have a theory of information design, and that that theory can be summed up in three words: concept, task, and reference. But a theory for breaking content up into pieces is not a theory of information design unless it also includes a theory of how the pieces should go back together.

> There is, of course, nothing preventing DITA users from having or developing a sound theory about how the pieces should go back together. The problem is not that DITA does not provide one. The problem is that writers often do not see that they need one. They believe, or act as if they believed, that the devolution into concept, task, and reference is a complete information design. The result, generally, is Frankenbooks.

Which I think is a salient point, and less an indictment on the "three/four types" model than a reminder that you shouldn't just throw together a bunch of type-delineated docs for their on sake; the individual pieces have to make a functional whole.

So I'm certainly in favor of supplementing traditional OpenAPI-esque reference docs with more conceptual or task-based docs... provided that they're actually designed to complement each other.

Collage Diffusion: a Photoshop-like layered interface for Stable Diffusion

Procedurally generated environments require very, very little storage space (you essentially need to store a few hundred seeds and parameters) and for most games nowadays, storage is actually the biggest bottleneck of all (not just HDD but temporary buffered storage).

Procedurally generated environments basically approach Kolmogorov-optimal compression for a given domain, without any loss of fidelity when done well. And the generation itself is usually not more computation than the polygon rendering.

That's incorrect, the Send bounds are only there in the multithreaded runtime (because it might need to Send a task across threads). The single threaded runtime will never do that, so its futures don't need to be Send.

Somewhat relatedly, a major (early) stumbling block for me with the multithreaded runtime was trying to keep references across await points. While boxing them is always an option, things also got much easier when I realized that while &T is only Send if T is sync, _&mut T is send if T is send_.
And on the other hand, private data is something nearly nobody talks about. Actually sensitive data about you is not handled in anything approaching a systematic and careful way, and that's the data that gets exposed in massive leaks that we should be caring about. But rather than talk about that, people talk about not wanting cookies, because they're more creeped out by that than having to change their social security number.

That’s not the only major purpose for a UUID and even if it was, it still would be flat out wrong to claim that almost no application requires that.
I believe that "LOG011 avoid pre-formatting log messages" is a terrible rule, and I always push for the opposite in all the codebases we work on: always pre-format all messages.

The reason is simple: logging module made a weird decision to ignore all the formatting errors, which means that a lot of testing generally fails to find any logging problems.. Put "logger.info("Queue size: %d", 'hello')" int your source and it'll pass all the unit tests, all the system tests, and would only be detected in prod, at the worst possible time when the system is failing and someone really needs to know the queue size. It is much better to preformat the messages, so tests and IDEs catch it later.

And yes, there are some rare logging statement in the tight loop - and in this rare case you can add explicit "if logger.isEnabledFor(logger.DEBUG):" call.. This is annoying, but it should be pretty rare, you should normally avoid logging code in tight loops.

I commonly do work in this space, and my solution is a standard ATA hooked up to a Peplink device for cellular connectivity.

My experience has been that 'serving' over a cellular connection is dicey, and I've abandoned my quest to get static IPs on all of my cellular gateways. Peplink has a management portal that lets me control everything, including a built-in system to connect to web management portals behind the gateway.

PRI/T1 technology based on copper wires is being discontinued in much of the US right now, and consequently, demand for this kind of solution is going up
is Faster Than Light travel even possible? I'm asking in a serious way.

Corporations are made of people and are protected from government tyranny. This is case law.

No - what it means is government will respect those aspects of people and treat all with dignity. But private citizens and the organizations they build are not compelled to that standard.

What you describe is totalitarian, authoritarian government that exists to oppress freedom and liberty.

I typically buy at least two titles per month, and the best deal ended up being:

Audible Premium Plus - 1 Credit Every Other Month for $17 ($8.50/mo)

You can buy 3 more credits for $37.99 (12.66/ea). It’s also worth checking individual titles because quite a few cost less than the credits.

Correction: I guess I actually buy slightly fewer than 2/mo because there’s a plan for that ($22.95/mo) that’s cheaper than the 27.50/mo from my numbers above. I had that one for a while but ended up feeling pressured to use them before they expire.

> Every ordinary person has to, in some way, pay attention to their semipublic image, even if that image is one that resists appearing on a platform.

The internet is a social platform upon which patriarchy has been subverted [in virtual reality] without anybody even noticing.

This is the age of social engineering. We all have to live like teenaged girls engaging in cliquish behavior whether we like it or not. Everything you say that can in any way be attributable to you will be used against you out of context.

If you don't think you do, then nobody has found a need to cancel you yet. Just wait until you get in another "girl's" way for a promotion or you're the target of staged histrionics so they can evade accountability for some other shit they did. Give it time and watch your back.

It's a quiet war you don't even realize is being waged until your life becomes a smoldering crater. This is by design. The favored weapon of women has always been poison, and it's not always the chemical kind.

I hadn't considered the sexist angle even after noticing my stepdaughter snooping on her parents' phones and cyberstalking me and was thinking just yesterday that it feels like I have to like like an aspiring presidential candidate. All skeletons must be macerated, all dirt must be swept away, all witnesses discredited or eliminated. I've seen what she does to the rest of her family with weaponized intelligence. There's no discernible endgame, just defamation and humiliation of everyone for the sake of elevating herself.

I now understand how teen girls get bullied into suicide by other girls. Some shit, you can't live down.
Because they are not "just collections of people", corporations are a legal fiction meant to be a handout to a group of people for investing in the economy.

It's insane. If you just get five people in a group and start selling lemonade that hurts someone, you do not get limited liability protection! You only do that if you file some legal paperwork. That legal entity, separate from any of the individuals involved, is what a "Corporation" is.
There is a huge amount of empirical evidence that adverse childhood experiences disrupt the HPA-axis as well as other biological systems. It's also well-known that people with PTSD have low cortisol. These aren't controversial findings. They've been found over and over.

I have CPTSD and it's very clear to me that the symptoms of this "mental disorder" are in my body, first and foremost. And it's clear that after I go through a flashback, I'll end up going through symptoms that many would describe as chronic fatigue syndrome or adrenal fatigue. So I don't think the comment is to say "It's all in your head", but to say that the mind and body are actually connected. (Shocking!) It's a two-way street. I'm actually relieved to see a medical professional say something that I've been thinking for the past few years.
Of the 3 Pixel 6a phones I've provisioned with eSIMs two of them have mysteriously failed and required me to order physical SIMs to get working again.

Code just tends to live longer than developers often anticipate. They put more trust in their organizations than is warranted about how much time they will be given later to go back and clean things up. (This probably happens because the original work is over-estimated and then the project is delivered under in a crunch, instead of having some breathing time to clean things up.) But again, this is all situational, you may work in different circumstances than I ever have.

There are processes (and even laws) that force banks to use only certified, supported and regularly patched software: there are still a lot of Windows 2000 servers in their datacenters and will be there for many years.
That line of reasoning is how you have systemic failures like this (or the Ariane 5 debacle). It only makes sense in the most dire of situations, like shutting down a reactor, not input validation.
