It looks like this uses some sort of automated system controlled by Google -- I am skeptical we'll see any improvements, given how bad results have been for so long (see all the SO and GH clones returned by Google for many examples). Who knows, though; I've certainly been wrong before.
Well, you would still compare Google as-is. It’s an apples to oranges comparison but you can still compare apples and oranges side by side.

I think it’s important to measure and quantify these things.
No, most Unity developers. Unity the company definitely wants into that market but, unfortunately for them, that's not the majority of their customers.
I'm not a chemist, but I believe Boeing when they told me never to place copper in contact with stainless, due to galvanic corrosion. Corrosion is the mortal enemy of all airplanes.

You'll also find the same if you google for copper and stainless galvanic compatibility.

Who says ‘inexperienced developers are managing databases’? That is not the use case EDB is advocating with cnpg, EDB offers a Postgres DBaaS for developers.

The README [0] explains that CloudNativePG has been designed by Postgres experts with Kubernetes administrators in mind. Put simply, it leverages Kubernetes by extending its controller and by defining, in a programmatic way, all the actions that a good DBA would normally do when managing a highly available PostgreSQL database cluster.

Ok I understand your point. I heard this story being told before as “the aristocratic English masters..” (implying they’d rubbed shoulders with the French enough to have adopted their lingo) which I think makes more logical sense to how it wound up being a French word in the English language.

The feature was basically used exclusively to kill ExpertsExchange, so the problem existed, but yes, it wasn't quite as bad as today.
Oh, you're right about it not being the default. I could've sworn it was the default way back when, but I might be misremembering. Also wasn't aware Signal rebranded.

> “Innocent until proven guilty” is for criminal systems, not security analysis.

Sorry if this sounds ignorant; I'm not a cryptanalyst/security researcher. Isn't this kind of the norm in the industry?

A few examples come to mind like hashing algorithms or encryption methods becoming obsolete over the years.

Was that due to the innocent-until-guilty mindset, or because computational power just overtook those standards?
Connect or Die: The high cost of going it alone
Rolling the Dice with the PostgreSQL Random Functions
Well back then (~10 years ago?) it was just a standard three signal minijack (left out, right out, mic in)

I think the audio out was open to software, but the incoming mic data required an MFI chip to be able to open/read the channel in software.

I never did get my hands on an MFI chip, so I never got far enough to figure out what it interfaced with. I assumed at the time it must somehow talk to the phone over the mic line, otherwise how could you build a microphone that used the standard mic jack? I'm sure it's encrypted, I know they were like 10¢ or so in volume, and once Apple approved/blessed your idea you could get tech docs and samples. That's about all I know, as I couldn't get them to work with us, as my company refused to hand over and project plans, market data etc to them. It was going to take multiple months before we got anywhere, and we had weeks to get a demo running. Spent about 3x time and money on that project as it should have taken because of their user hostility. So f*ck em.

Maybe some one else here can add some details on how MFI works on microphones.

Edit: should follow up saying that once I figured out that they weren't locking out WiFi, we added a small WiFi hotspot module to the PCB. So you plugged it into the phone, it drew power from the phone to run a hotspot. You then had to go into the phone and join the hotspot. Then our app would open a port on the local wireless LAN to tunnel a few hundred bytes of data a second. Blew my mind that I could only get around Apple blocks by sticking another radio on the phone.
Vite is a _fantastic_ piece of software that solves a huge part of front-end complexity. I've used it with both Vue and React and it worked perfectly for both.

I'm not a big fan of Vue because it feels like there's a lot of rough edges, although the experience is much better with Vue 3. React is much closer to vanilla JS/TS, and the tooling feels much more mature.

I think it does, to an extent. Reddit is still alive, for example. It's just nowhere near the community and content it used to be and, in my mind, it won't ever be that way again. Reddit's biggest benefit was that most of the moderators were people who were really, really into very niche topics. The big subs were all moderated by the same 10 people so they devolved into meme depositories and made up stories that stoked emotions. Now that the principled mods have left and those niche subreddits are being taken over by people who care more about the memes than the topic at hand, it's falling apart.
This is not my experience. I search for exact phrases the same way I always have. Three to result does not contain the word I emphasized. This never happened before a few years ago. Now it happens daily.
Organisations that care about new features need to reconsider their stance on using Preview features and even more importantly sticking to versions for which the sales org offers an LTS service. The whole concept of LTS is designed for companies that are so uninterested in new features (often because their software is no longer heavily maintained) that they're willing to pay money not to receive them. There are a lot of such projects around, and the fact that non-legacy projects choose old versions and an LTS service shows that the ecosystem still hasn't adapted to the new release model.
I’ve thought about making an account and spending the free quota on a side by side comparison. The problem is you need a representative sample of queries. The things I search might not be what you search or what my mom searches.

That's not walking back. That's taking a step back. The runtime fees still exist.
I'm not saying violence doesn't exist anymore, I'm saying that tech companies don't and likely can't get hundreds of men together to beat and kill striking workers a la Standard Oil and Paul Bergoff. They also don't currently own Congress, like Rockefeller and the other robber barons did.

And they still didn't come close to the power of feudal lords.
This is exactly the problem. It's not about how many bodies we can stack on top of each other, it's how many people can this one specific area sustainably support, knowing that the number we come up with will fluctuate with time and circumstance and that same calculation has to be made for every "area" we care to define. It's a highly complex problem.

As resources like clean drinking water get more and more scarce, and climate change and the refugees it produces cause all of us to pack into smaller and smaller areas we'll need to start paying more and more attention to this to make sure that we're not destroying what resources we still have.
Exactly. People and society having to deal with certain individuals "making repeated false claims" has resulted in this having a name: "bad reputation".

I have a few qualms with this app. I've easily and securely sent things from one computer to another using a simple FTP server, with all of the features that croc has listed. As for CLI support, I've written a small helper tool that allows me to transfer via CLI - giving me more security since I don't pull in any dependencies in my own code.
It's really not, not even for professionals, but anyone playing at a decent hobby level. Consider, for example, Beethoven's Sonata Pathétique (accessible to many amateurs), starting with Grave (very slowly) and changes to Allegro.

Either you start with an impossibly long bar that covers the screen, where you can't see how the phrase flows into the next notes, or you later get to a dozen identical ultra-short bars mashed on top of each other.

And that's just one problem.
Your first bullet point here is basically entirely fiction, none of those accusations are factual.

The small number of people relevant to this land-grab are, very literally, casino operators. This wasn't a general commentary on Indian casinos, this is literally people who were born into the privileged position of inheriting generational wealth and privileged legal rights.

If you ignore that you've been conditioned through years of propaganda to see an overly simplified and exaggerated system of "Indians good, European immigrants bad", then this gets trickier when you realize you're basically arguing in favor of some trust fund kids to get more powerful because of who their great-grandparents were, a system which I'm confident you'd oppose if it were a different set of kids born feeling entitled to land, wealth and political power.
So they’ve abandoned being the world’s best employer by forcing return to office and return to hub. Now they are publicly abandoning customer obsession by putting ads in the middle of a movie.

That wouldn’t explain why Bing has the same problem as Google. Bing isn’t making money off of serving pages with Google ads. If anything, they are handing money to a competitor.

Beginning to think you're actually incapable of understanding what I'm saying so I'll be as clear as possible.

You said, "the point of a command economy is to reduce individuals freedom." I have provided numerous arguments that a command economy could serve another purpose -- survival in extremis, provision of public goods at a loss, and creation of a communal sense of obligation.

I made no argument about the specific context of this thread. I made no argument that it does not decrease individual freedom. It does, as does any situation where the principal decision maker and executive agent are not the same person. But that is not always the purpose. Your inability to understand your own words and their implications astounds me.
This is a great take because I suspect that the airline industry is exactly the reason why all these companies are now in the "death by a thousand cuts" stage of their strategies. Literally no one prefers the airlines today and the experience of flying to the same degree (and especially not more) than they did a decade ago or more. Everything about the experience, from the boarding to the seating to the food, is objectively worse than it was before and yet people still need to fly.

Yeah, even at my father's place (I've had different providers than Comcast for personal reasons, but FWIW same story) I've never had a problem just plugging in a router of my choice and using that instead. Makes it a lot easier to handle quirky setups between modem swaps anyway.
Wasn't the standard model for how a nuclear war would start basically "if you escalate, the reasonable expectation is that the other side will escalate as well"? If you escalate despite the nukes on the other side, it would be risky to assume that the other side is unwilling to do the same.

If you escalate, you signal your intent to start a nuclear war if the other side does not back down. But if you are willing to do that, you should assume that the other side is equally willing. Otherwise why would they waste money on nuclear weapons if they are not prepared to use them?

Much of the cold war was basically figuring out what you are allowed to do in a proxy war, so that the other side still interprets your actions as a legitimate proxy war rather than escalation.
I’m similar to you, and I agree with your points completely.

I learned to play classical piano as a child and teenager and got reasonably good at it. But as my interests expanded to music that is normally not written down, I had less need to read music notation. Fifty years later, I still play the piano every day, but the only reading I do is occasionally looking at the chords and melody lines for jazz standards.

The music theory I learned when young has been very helpful over the years, and it would have been more difficult for me to absorb it then without using standard music notation. But I no longer think about music in terms of notes on a stave; I have gradually developed my own mental representation of it.

I still listen to classical music, and I do wish that I had acquired and maintained better sight-reading skills so that playing it would be a pleasure for me now rather than a chore.
Yes, that's my point. The article had to use a once-in-a-lifetime/millenium global pandemic to make its point.

Do you live on the California coast? There are plenty of fish, mostly because of so many protected areas. Maybe you are talking about commercial trawlers or something but if its coming to subsistence fishing there is more than enough to eat. Apparently, these groups claim they know how to harvest mussels during blooms ... Maybe they are immune to cyanotoxins etc. I just wonder where they have been practicing.
I’m basically the opposite — really struggle to memorize music, and will almost always read while playing.

Maybe because I was taught to read music for piano as a kid?

The only exception was learning banjo (as an adult) because I basically learned it all from youtube and forced myself to memorize songs. But when I could play piano I only ever remembered a few bars from a couple of songs, everything else had to be written down. Even just playing chords on a uke!
I know right. Unfortunately with jdk upgrades only e2e tests have much value, and those are much more expensive
There's more to music than an "acoustic thing" because of processes such as composition, arrangement, rehearsal, and so forth. Whether those things are necessary or useful depends mostly on what genre you're interested in playing.

Some genres, like rock and folk music, involve little or no written material. There are certainly players who have never read music from a sheet. I attend a week-long folk music camp every summer, and there's no sheet music. I perform jazz "standards" in small ensemble settings entirely by ear.

But I also belong to a 19-piece jazz ensemble, that plays from sheet music. It's really not practical to expect the players to figure out their parts by ear and perform them from memory. Requiring that would greatly reduce the scope of our repertoire, and the band's ability to attract players. Sheet music literally expands the artistic palette of the composer, to the delight of both the performers and the audience.

Sheet music allows students to study and work through a large amount of literature, quickly. My kids are both studying music in college, and the amount of material they're exposed to every week is mind blowing, in lessons, class, rehearsals, and even getting together to play for fun.

Having been a part time working musician for a few decades, I've also noticed that sheet music is a band management tool. My band would be incapable of performing if we couldn't call in one or two substitutes per performance, some of whom are sight-reading on the bandstand. Same deal for a classical orchestra. In a smaller band that I play in, the bandleader is composing most of the material, and we scribble edits and rehearsal notes in our parts as we collaborate on refining each piece.

Up through the 1960s or 70s, the instrumental parts for most popular music was recorded by professional musicians who were working from written material, even if they made sometimes dramatic changes to the songs. This was just the most efficient way to manage a studio date. The touring musicians could always learn the songs by ear later on. There are stories of bands, where the first few dates of each tour still sounded rough as the band was coming up to speed on material that had already been professionally recorded.
I hear what you’re saying but isn’t it a bit of six of one and half a dozen of the other? The high(er) pressure relative to what the pipes could withstand exacerbates the effects of water hammer induced by the pressure washer’s solenoid constantly slamming open and shut in the matter of milliseconds, no? Lower pressure (via a PRV or otherwise), higher-rated pipes, slowly opening and closing valves, or strategically installed hammer arresters are all (theoretically and to various extents) viable solutions, no?
I prefer "more betterer".

There's no question that the survival of humanity depends on our ability to colonize space. I just worry that destroying our planet on the assumption that future generations will be able to escape to other worlds is going to make it so much harder for that progress to happen that we might not make it that far.

That people who have to fight each other just for clean water and food will focus on building guns and bombs instead of spaceships and won't have the time or resources to search for suitable planets.

Those people are a combination of 1. really old and 2. lost an election. You can't keep people around forever, even if you might want to. (It also implies they're effective as lobbyists, which I don't think is necessarily true.)

> This falsely implies no donor can get more than $5k into any one campaign fund.

Those other things aren't the campaign fund, they're largely separate funds running separate campaigns and not controlled by the candidate. So they can't be used to directly pay the candidate.

Also, as I said, 1. money doesn't actually win elections and 2. if it did, it's Bernie and fellow non-corporate-Dem candidates who'd actually be winning, because small donor fundraising is more effective than this stuff is.

There are some straight up bribery scandals, but I think Bob Menendez is an exception that proves the rule and is going to lose his office based on his literal piles of gold bars bribery.

I learned by playing along to the radio. This was in the late 70s and early 80s, and I still remember a lot of the "classic rock" repertoire for this reason. It can help to have a teacher give you a head start on easy songs before diving in head-first, and also, learning your way around your instrument independently from ear training.

You develop a reflexive connection between your ears and your hands, so the signals flow through your spinal cord and reptilian brain, while you're thinking consciously about the higher levels of musical structure and what's going on around you.
