I was referring to blog posts, for example [1], in which you admittedly use both terms in the text, but you focus more on "state-based" for example in the headline and image. You also erroneously conflate declarative migrations with somehow involving `mysqldump` for some reason? This is what I mean when I say posts like this feel like they're designed to make declarative migrations seem strange and foreign.

I realize this post is two years old, and you're understandably not going to mention a competing product like mine. But it feels like a disingenuous strawman argument to claim that declarative schema management requires `mysqldump`, considering that Skeema (my product) and SQLDef (another declarative tool) were both released in 2016 and are both widely used.

Exactly, who cares about the sensibilities of the poor children when Meta is infringing on Disney's copyrights, that's clearly the most shocking element here. Also, they're pretty well done, nice work from the team that put that together.
I mean it isn't just minimalism. It makes waterproofing way easier and allows for sturdier construction in a smaller device when getting said device apart again isn't really a priority.

Also who in the world needs all this replacement batteries anyway? I'm still rocking a 13 Pro purchased when new, I have no plans to upgrade and my battery is bloody fine. I still end every day with a good 40% charge at minimum and I'm an app developer, so I'm on my phone for a good solid portion of every day. And prior to this one I had an X which not only didn't have any major battery issues but my wife still used it for another year after I bought my 13, and then, near the tail end of her ownership, STARTED having some battery problems. At the end of year 4 of service as a daily driver.
But in those days, in addition to the license prices for closed source DBs, you also had to pay all the hardware costs to run them on, and hire an army of DBAs to support and maintain them for you.

Running HA Postgres is not easy and requires a lot of niche/specialized knowledge. But running one of the big commercial DBs back in the pre-cloud days required just as much specialized knowledge at the DB level. It required network engineers and Sysadmins. It was far from cheap to run at scale.

There's a video poker version, which I played on a machine years ago, where after being dealt a winning hand we have an option to infinitely double the winnings if we correctly guess if the next card is higher or lower than 7. Does anyone know what I am talking about and what the name of this poker variation is called?
They’re dismissing it because using TikTok now is fun (or at least interesting) and those other things you’re talking about are not - and they can’t do anything about them anyway.

Assembly theory unifies physics and biology to explain evolution and complexity
You seem to be thinking that manufacturing costs alone dictate the product cost. Demand and volume in circulation are also part of what determines costs, though. That is, your first assertion that they should be within cents of each other is clearly wrong.

It doesn't let us infer that there is a cheaper cost somewhere, it lets us infer that Amazon has a low confidence that someone will buy it. That or they have such a low inventory of it that they are not confident showing it on the buy box without more engagement from the users.

To be clear, I'm ok with the idea that this is getting investigated. I have low confidence of finding smoking gun reasons to punish sellers on this. I am far more confident that Amazon is optimizing to convert sales.
So it’s a straw man that anyone can’t just set up a blog or do podcast and publish their ideas?

It don't even support dynamically assigned ipv6 address. And ipv6 prefix need to be hardcoded into config. And even worse , ipv6 address(not suffix) is bounded directly to the container at creation time. If your ipv6 prefix changed for whatever reason.(laptop is a thing since 20 years ago, you know) Best you can do is scrap the container and make a new one. I would say keep it experimental at current status is a good decision. It's simply not usable currently.

I hope Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania don't continue down this path. I've looked at the graphs of their economic success over the past 3 decades with quite a bit of interest.

I'd love to see all of them break through to the level of my adoptive homeland of Finland, and perhaps even beyond (if we don't find a way to make ourselves more business friendly first, of course!). Tremendous potential in all 3 of these places. I'd love to visit Riga or Tallinn one of these days.
I don't know how well the original y-websocket provider scales, as it holds ydocs in memory. I imagine lots of folks are using it just fine in production, though. I wrote a less-stateful version of y-websocket that uses the Yjs Differential Updates API to save and serve updates without loading the docs into memory.

As long as you have garbage collection turned on for your Ydocs, they stay pretty small, especially if you are avoiding using YMaps. (The strings that serve as YMap keys can't be GC'd, from what I understand. YMaps are great for bounded domain objects, but not so great for storing collections, dictionary-style. Y-KeyValue solves this problem.)

I eventually added a X MB document size limit on the backend, but only after doing a statistical analysis on existing documents. I found a size threshold that was a strong indicator of abnormal/buggy behavior, and set a limit under that. Without the limit, occasionally I had huge Ydocs, usually created by a bug or weird user behavior, clogging up database resources. Now I block those ydocs on the backend and send a messsage to the user with some mitigation/recovery tips. I plan to add automatic document repair, but just haven't gotten to it yet. As LK matures and I get better with Yjs, these bugs become much rarer.
the delay seems to vary, perhaps by when the discovery becomes widely applied?

Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier had a much shorter delay, for example.

Exactly what glitch is fixed here? Is there a problem with highlighting to a customer that the battery may not be authentic? They aren't preventing you from installing aftermarket batteries at all... This works just as well on a 6s as it does on the brand new ones.

It isn't "whataboutism". If the government's position is that MFN terms for vendors are fundamentally anti-competitive and bad for consumers, which I agree with, then it raises questions about any organization or sector of the economy that widely requires MFN terms. It discredits the FTC when the US government routinely engages in the same market malpractice that they are accusing Amazon of but are disinterested in changing their own contracting behavior. It doesn't become less bad because it is the government doing it to vendors instead of Amazon.

This "rules for thee but not for me" behavior is why trust in government institutions has been eroding. It is difficult to give good and necessary actions the aura of legitimacy required for democratic institutions to function when the hypocrisy is obvious.

When performing a rollout of new code across multiple machines, you can expect to have both your old code and new code running at the same time. That’s why you might want to support both the old and new schema at the same time.

> Also who in the world needs all this replacement batteries anyway?

Really?? I get that you personally may not see a need for this, but it takes special kind of blinders to pretend that your experience is universal. Tons of people want replaceable batteries. You're welcome to talk to the iFixit folks if you need more evidence.

> Why is this behavior legal for manufacturers but maybe not for Amazon? I can see no other reason than the law is path-dependent and arbitrary.

Market share => market power => different regulations.

(Of course, I would personally prefer to ban this behavior across the board; I just wanted to also point out that treating Amazon differently could plausibly be reasonable)
These aren't little children of course. Little children do what they're told. These are probably almost exclusively teenagers.

I think they're not showing up because they don't want to be in school. And I think that's because school isn't a healthy place for teenagers. I don't think teenagers should be spending their entire day in a government administered environment, and they seem to feel the same way.
Not supposed, but is done like that.
Practical considerations aside, it intuitively seems like making green covered skyscrapers like this can actually increase the primary productivity of a given ground area.

In a typical dense forest, plants at the top of the canopy are probably not efficiently using all of the light they absorb, and much is lost to branches. Given how many plants can thrive without any direct sunlight, just having sunlight for half the day from an angle (a plant on one of the balconies) is probably forcing more efficiency and growth out of the plant relative to the amount of light energy it receives.

I suppose if the ground was covered in skyscrapers of comparable height, the effect would be more or less neutralized by the shade from neighboring buildings.
He reported it in the best way possible. We all know what would have happened if he filed a bug report (especially if they didn't realize it was him).
Actually, in this case I am cheating because I already know that this SKU is offered for a lower price with faster shipping from Walmart. I suspect that listing is what triggered the loss of the buy box.
>Game theory supplies that just fine

To a vastly lesser extent than when it's one company with one board and one CEO in charge of multiple business units that would be unrelated after the breakup. If you break off Costco's chicken selling business from the rest of the store, the chicken business isn't going to keep their prices so low to boost the other company's sales because it costs them too much money to do so and they get far less benefit from boosting the other company's sales than when they were the same company.
Of course not. Factories are a product of capitalist development. But this monopoly of means of production is a necessity for capitalism, because without it, there is no salaried work. Therefore, we had things like the enclosure of communal lands in Europe that were instrumental for deprieving people of means of production.

Why do you think that in American continent we had slave labor? How do you convince someone to work in your land if the person is able to simply go and easily take for herself vacant land and produce for herself instead of producing for someone else and get a salary smaller than her production? Slavery was how you deal with the problem forcing people to work. Later (and usually before the enslaved people are freed), the land becomes a commodity and then nobody can so easily simply take land for herself.
In general, yes, but google specifically, no. When a company has a decent track record I'm willing to accept on faith that they will do what they say, or at least try to get close to it. Yes, business reality may change in that time.

However, Google has repeatedly demonstrated that they'll sell you something only to kill it off very quickly. They're great at innovating cool new ideas and absolutely terrible at getting anyone to maintain those ideas. And you can see that based on their hiring. They want the best of the best, people who want to do nothing but blaze new trails. Maintenance? Techdebt? No... not for these esteemed engineers. Which leaves... basically no one at Google to mop up after.
I'd say it's table stakes today.
As much as the author calls themself out in the subtitle, they do lead with the actual "TLDR".

> It’s called TLDR and it blows up if your tests take more than 1.8 seconds to run.

> The big idea is to run as much of your test suite as you can as often as you can, as opposed to only running whatever test you’re actively working on and saving the full test suite for CI.

The stated objective sounds nice. I have no idea how sensible or thought-out the 1.8 seconds decision is but keeping the whole suite at less than 2 seconds "feels right" as it were, especially in a CI/CD context. Probably most valuable is setting some timeout and ideally setting it as low as possible.

It’s bad for both. But this thread is specifically about Amazon.
If the EU does mandate it, like USB-C we will see the corresponding iPhone release tout how they have the greenest batteries and an amazing (same number) X hours of batterylife, but only the greenest battery life.

Snark aside and how most phones/etc are put together these days, I see issues in the general population of replacing the battery if it requires opening the case.
The comments here seem to be focusing on the "offensive" part of the discussion rather than the copyright angle which is far more interesting.

The inclusion of copyright characters will be a huge deal IMHO, and Meta as the creator within a product that provides them commercial gain will likely not be able to claim fair use.

The technical challenges of cleaning up their data set to images that are legally safe will be interesting, but it also means that their training set includes lots of copyright imagery already. Which will mean that they're potentially open for even more legal headaches

Even more interesting is how they’d need to filter out studio specific depictions. E.g rapunzel is public domain but not Disneys depiction.

That’s before you get into individual artist rights as well, but at thethe corporation level this is fascinating

Sounds like they were smart about it in the case you’re talking about, both in word and in action.

Flexibility (both in being able to say yes, and no) is important. Not being abusive is important too.

A lot of folks have lost their minds over the last few years (more than most), and it’s going to be interesting for sure how this all plays out.
I really love how Velan Studios handled the shutting down of their game Knockout City.

1) They announced the official servers would be shut down months ahead of time with an exact date[0].

2) In that same announcement they also announced that they would be releasing a private server/client build before the shut down happened that would allow people to continue to play using privately hosted servers.

They delivered on the promise to release a private server build[1] and by the time the official servers were shut down, the community had already built out a hosted server solution complete with a custom launcher to support easily connecting to different servers.

Because Velan took the time to plan the games shut down properly and went the extra mile to produce one last release that included everything needed to run the backend, players were able to continue playing the game completely whenever they want.

I really hope that other game studios take similar paths in the future.

Note: On mobile, apologies for any grammar

Yeah, but it's obsolete because people who use wheels can get better ones and upgrade. That's not the same as a company telling you your hardware is now useless. These devices are services.
You know what let me try my iPhone, maybe lowering the volume enough would do the trick indeed.

The issue is the speaker btw not the mic. I want(ed) it to be outside of my ear as in the bluetooth wearable headsets though.
If I'm being generous then maybe 5% of my developer time is spent chasing type errors. And then most of those "type" errors would be errors that no reasonable type system would have a chance of catching - like keys missing from associative arrays. I'm competent enough to not need the compiler to tell me banalities like that age is a number or name a string. The overhead of having to deal with types is many times larger than those 5%.
I happen to know exactly what I’m talking about - you right now can look for an item on Amazon and see “this product is available at a lower price with <slower shipping>”

You right now can set up a site on Shopify and sell your goods.

If you are selling a differentiate product instead of cheap crap imported (or drop shipped) from China, you can create demand without going through Amazon.

For instance, I was specifically looking for Samsonite zipper less luggage because I trusted that brand and it wasn’t available on Amazon. They chose not to sell on Amazon and I bought it directly
An important consideration is that Nobel prizes are for "great benefits to humankind", it usually means practical discoveries, and never theoretical work.

The world becoming more and more complex, the time span between the theoretical framework and the first experiments to the realization of something genuinely useful tends to become longer and longer. There are some fields where, with the time to become an expert plus the time for the discovery to become Nobel-worthy, it may become difficult to get a Nobel in a lifetime (so, at all).
Great news. This should be rolled out everywhere.
Sorry, maybe I was unclear: the potentially high penalties for possession are used a threat, to push people into pleading guilty on the distribution charges. Possession alone can potentially land you in jail for up to 3 years. Distribution has a wider range, from 1 year up to potentially 9 years.

If you're caught in possession of a couple grams of coke, then the prosecutor is going to want to get you on distribution. They can say something like "You will be found guilty of possession, we both know that. If you plead guilty on both counts, we can recommend concurrent sentencing and you'll be out of prison in less than two years. If you don't take the deal, we're going to push for everything we can get: even if you get off on the distribution charge, you'll still be in prison for 3 years for possession."

Now, you or I, affluent tech-bros that this forum attracts, know that this is a terrible deal. We'd hire a lawyer, fight it tooth and nail, and walk away with a possession conviction and a slap on the wrist sentence. But if you're some broke kid, with a public defender who's really just there to counsel you on what plea deal you should take, it might not seem like such a bad idea.
Would a more p2p system ever be possible? Just choose the host and their client is the one that orchestrates? Then you’d just need a proxy to connect users?

My understanding with WASM is that you can run full desktop applications in the browser. Wouldn’t that mean you could include the server as well?
