They are suggesting that anti-trust is an excuse to perform industrial espionage. France is, however, also the top anti-trust and pro-consumer enforcer in the EU, which in many sectors leads the world in consumer protection regulations. There is no reason to assume it was done for industrial espionage reasons, especially as NVIDIA France is explicitly already a French company producing these AI chips.

> Undoubtedly the Modi administration has received more information about it than we have.

why undoubtedly? -- looking at the Indian response I doubt that they have.

> Hypothetically, is there some sort of motive you have for Canada to want to blame India for such a murder? What would they have to gain?

Yes, there is. The Trudeau govt will fall, if not for the support from Jagmeet Singh who is openly pro Khalistan and anti-India. Trudeau has every reason to act on behest of Jagmeet Singh. To top it all, Trudeau also aspires for the same pro-Khalistan/anti-India voters. The differences between India-Canada relationship are not new, it started soon after Trudeau became PM. In 2018 during his India visit, Trudeau, with him, invited a known Khalistani, convicted of attempted murder of an Indian Minister. But, however, the differences go all the way back to 1985 when pro-Khalistan Canadians bombed Air India Flight 182, killing all 329 aboard and failed-attempt to bomb another Air India Flight 301.

It is not to suggest that these allegation are because of this motive -- but only to list motive (since you asked).

A-OK in my book - but blocking intersections and pissing off fellow citizens and stopping their free travel is not.

The line crossed, in the view of many people who might have otherwise supported them, was the nature of their protest - not the fact that they were protesting and not the words that they were saying.

I mean, most of what GRUB provides is completely unnecessary under EFI.

You can even boot Linux from EFI directly, I think, you just need to hardcode the kernel parameters, which is not ideal. So a very minimal loader is still useful, but way simpler than GRUB.
From the article:

> Our services now ran on Kubernetes with individual pods collecting tens-of-thousands of metric samples per second. Engineers also evolved much stricter expectations for the amount of dropped metric samples (none).

Is there any indication of how many datagrams can be dropped in a localhost connection? I expect zero datagrams to be dropped between a service and it's sidecar.

It's also possible to run a StatsD node in a Kubernetes cluster as a DaemonSet. Each service+StatsD sidecar runs as a Deployment and StatsD sidecars can be configured to both aggregate metrics and push them to the StatsD DaemonSet through a TCP connection. This would lead to very low traffic rates between each Deployment and the DaemonSet, as sidecars can push their metrics in periods of several seconds or even minutes, and each Kubernetes node typically runs single digit/low two digit Deployments which results in single-digit TPS.

Does anyone with experience in both Prometheus and StatsD have any insight into this scenario? At first glance it sounds like the premise to push a migration to Prometheus is flawed and unjustified.
Fascinating. Visa-subsidized gold I guess.
I'm not sure what you're doing to get into deadlocks, but when used as prescribed, I personally haven't run in to these issues.

Swift concurrency is still in a transitory period, and with that comes some warnings about how you can mix it with legacy concurrency primitives. i.e. not holding a lock across Task boundaries.

However, it's fairly well documented. There's a talk 'Swift concurrency: Behind the scenes' [1], that goes into detail on this. View from around the 25 min mark.

> I would have thought that an excellent interviewer would generally be considered one who is efficient at extracting interesting data (or can at least edit it to appear so) and can engage with & challenge the interviewee ...

I agree with the earlier part but disagree with this part of the comment. If the interviewee is someone particularly interesting, I learn a lot more about them when the interviewer just throws softball questions to help the interviewee more or less free-associate. Most of the time when an interviewer tries to "challenge" or "ask hard questions" it comes across as cringeworthy and a waste of time that could have been better spent letting the interviewee speak their mind.
I wasn't involved myself, just talked over lunch to some of the guys on the team. The customers for the software are other businesses, each with a pretty large contract volumne and direct negotiations, which meant there was already a lot of documentation on the actual requirements of the customers. From that a ranking of core requirements was compiled, a ranking of requirements that would need to be fulfilled due to current contracts, as well as a ranking of requirements that would probably be required in the future. I think that was most of the first two months. In addition they probably scouted out options for tech stacks.

With that in hand, the rest of the time was basically spent with UML and Figma. So very large iterative class diagrams and User Journeys -> UI/UX.

I think by far the largest advantage they had is that the project manager and several devs had been with company and the product since the 90s, so there was a lot of institutional knowledge on the product and customers.

However, after writing the post above I asked the lead how things are going, and they actually still aren't feature complete (3 years on). So while it has fully replaced the old product and 90%+ works, extending to some of the features is still very hard.

It's immaterial if some key on some keyboard in some language happens to have a key that produces that glyph by composing with shift, or not.

If you asked how to type numbers, and I said "same way you type letters", that does not mean by typing "A" and wondering why it didn't produce "1".

The question was what is a compose key or what does compose key mean.

Shift is an example of a compose key that everyone is familar with, just no one calls it that. But everyone already understands what the shift key does. If you know what the shift key is and how to use it and what it does, then you know what a compose key is. It's that.

All the other possible compose keys just do exactly that same thing, just more of it for more and different glyphs and control codes.

An they had language in their TOS to reflect that, but they removed it (before the current fiasco). They also removed the github repo they're talking about.

Fair point, and definitely a valid refutation of his position on Russia-Ukraine.

My point should have been that everybody is entitled to their opinion on politics and philosophy, but you do have to take facts into account when available. They're not always available, and it's not always obvious how relevant they are to a new situation, but you obvious shouldn't ignore facts completely, and that does happen way too often. In every corner of the political spectrum.

I'm not claiming that there is no use for Jack. I just think that this is a niche and doesn't require a separate connector in every smartphone. Having a universal connector that can be used for various niche scenarios is IMO enough. We should push for improvements in that regard (e.g. make it easy to charge the phone and use the dongle at the same time).

these kids were literally arrested for "cheering for pakistan cricket team which won against indian cricket team" and the supporters of indian cricket team in their college were offended by the loss so they had them arrested.

the popular discourse around the issue at the time was "they should not have cheered for pakistani cricket team". like wow.

We definitely know obvious bad behaviors can cause cancer, probably the ones you've heard of.

But I think some big part of it is genetics and/or luck. I see what happened to Jobs, and people like him - reasonably healthy people.

> It does need the remote machine to be logged in

NoMachine seems the only one (that worked well?) I've tried a few years back that could be used to access remotely a local session and viceversa. Which is my use case.
Sadly the local session must be logged in, as you said. The black screen feature sometime would fail and any passer by would then be able to use the machine locally. Also if there was a problem with the connection or you forgot to disconnect remotely there was no way to take over the session locally. Complete dealbreaker for me

I wrote a "common-config" module for an internal python project, that works like this:

1. You hardcode settings in python using a multiline TOML string

2. Users may have multiple configs at the usual config folders

3. The configs override the hardcoded defaults wherever fields are present

4. Configs override each other in order of directories (when we are talking about xdg-directories) and within them in alphabetical order wherever fields are present

This allows you to have good defaults, override some fields at will and add something like 99-debug.toml that you can just rename to 99-debug.toml.invalid if you don't need it anymore. The module also provides an install/edit cli and functions for printing the final resulting config and which configs it read on the way to that final config. At some point I have to publish it.

If you need anything more than TOML because your use case is so crazy, then consider either writing a domain specific language or use a scripting language like lua, python, js, ...
> I feel like the whole point of marketing is to generate revenue for the business, albeit indirectly

if there is anything that doesnt "indirectly" make money for a company, then it should be cut immediately...

The whole cost center vs profit center is a highly political game anyways. Thats why engineering and IT is often thought of as a cost center (because they often care more about the product) wheras marketing, sales etc are usually profit centers because they are able to direct their skills inwards to make a case for their own existance.

Its a persuasion game about where resources will be spent to achieve most impact and for different companies the true answer will often be different. You need less marketing (but not none) if your product is premium. You need less product development (but not none) if your plan is to ship as much low quality garbage as possible. In between these the persuasion game is a distributed way of deciding strategy.

There is a sort of almost-idea of risk vs quality, where some areas exist soley to prevent future risk to the company (IT meltdown, no roof over head, legal liability etc) where the rest work on the buisness. But under that thought the vast majority of operations are profit
Europe doesn't exist anywhere in the world except in the fallacious minds of human beings.

Gold exists. The sun exists. Gravity exists. Elephants exist.

Europe does not.

We cannot conjure up gold just by saying "gold shall exist!" - we can, however, lie to ourselves and say "Europe exists!", and - as long as the human mind is around to perpetuate it, this lie will persist.

Gravity doesn't need the human mind to making it work. Neither does fission. These things exist in the universe whether humans like it or not.

The moment humans are unable to perpetuate the fallacy of "Europe", it ceases to exist entirely.

>Its not a lie to give something a name.

Yes actually, it is. You are not your name. Your name persists only as long as others help you make it persist.

This is not true of the ground under your feet or the air you breathe or water you need to survive.

America is a fiction that only persists for as long as there are human beings around to say "that fiction exists and we shall refer to it as America and in so doing, make this thing that doesn't exist, a reality which persists - but only for as long as we state it does".

And therein lies Chomskys' dilemma: he cannot tell his audience that one culture is less of a lie than another, because: they are all lies. They don't really exist, except as human constructs - and these are arbitrary, requiring a decision - an ability which we humans, by all reading of the natural laws of the universe, shouldn't really have...
Corporations are composed of individual human beings who are also exercising their universal rights in the course of involvement in that corporate entity .. will you start making a special class of humans that has those rights and can exercise them, and a class that can't based on their membership in a social group?

Then: Congratulations, you've become the very repressive thing you were resisting in the first place.

Yes, this is the price of freedom: in public, where you can express yourself, and exercise your universally granted rights to free expression (and thus recording) or not - without the expectation of being impinged upon by your peers - so too can others express themselves, and exercise their same universal rights.

Its a two way street and it belongs to the public.
Yes, the company would comply with discovery, but it operated in hundreds of jurisdictions, and sometimes those jurisdictions think that kicking in doors and telling the interns that they'll go to prison if they don't give their passwords is easier.

This is especially true if this authority intends to use the fishing expedition to build the case in the first place.
From the perspective of the natural world, all culture is a lie that humans tell themselves in order to create something that doesn't exist.

We conjure these things into existence by telling ourselves - and hurting those who don't agree - that the thing is real, even if it isn't.

>Just because it is not the unified worldview as everyone has doesn't make it false.

This is demonstrably incorrect: Just ask a Russian to explain American foreign policy. More Americans than Russians believing such lies do not make them true - they just add the force of human attention to the fallacy, which helps it persist in light of other forces of human attention ..

>arbitrary

Lies are arbitrarily persisted as a result of the _decisions_ of human beings, which don't have any force, weight or energy other than what we say they have, and that force, weight and energy only persists for as long as we, humans, say it shall - and not a moment longer!

"Gold is real. Europe is not."

Shelley was onto something ... the fiction of Ozymandias is one lie from which we all will learn, whether we like it or not.
It was probably mostly about cash balance for the company. I once worked in a company that was a niche business but very profitable and with predictable cash flow. That made it very quick and easy to sell when needed, basically a tradeable asset. Twice in the space of a few years it was sold when the current owner wanted some cash and another had excess cash. Sounds like this is the case with Bandcamp.

In my middle management experience, being profitable and owned by a company that didn't share the business domain was best as they mostly left us alone as long as we were profitable. When they finally got bought by a similar business, that's when they tried (and failed) to merge jobs. I've since left but they've recently been spun out yet again.

Only ~40% of cancers are actually preventable and even if people followed all guidelines, we'd still see around 1 in 4 people developing cancer. For most people, the second line of defense is early detection, which is important to mention so people don't say "I have such a healthy lifestyle, it's very unlikely that I'll get cancer". Millions of extremely healthy people out there develop cancer every year.

Adjacent to your adjacency: My dad played video games, too. I was probably six or seven years old when we were playing through Super Mario World at the same time. One day, I came home from school and my dad had been experimenting with the Game Genie. He did shift work, and was just coming off a night shift -- he was tired, and wasn't sure exactly what code he was TRYING to enter, but whatever he DID enter ended up producing the following two effects:

* Mario would cycle between three animations at all times. Walking, swimming, and walking upside down.
* Mario was invincible to everything except falling down pits.

I so wish we still had that code. I don't even know where I'd find a SNES Game Genie, but it was endlessly entertaining to me at that age.
The same happens in the other direction though.

I'm really left scratching my head about people who buy gold to hold physically and personally rather than as an investment.

In any situation where it might be relevant, how are you going to sell your gold?

For example, if you bought one of those bars right now, how would you then sell that bar again right now?

And, if things really are completely collapsing, nobody wants gold. They'll want something much more immediately useful--food, clothing, ammunition, etc.

I did look at this to see if it was cheaper than any jewelrymaking gold I could buy, but the prices are bang on identical per ounce.
