These are mostly learning resources rather than certifications....

For backend engineering specific, some free & paid resources are

- O'Reilly Membership - This is a gold mine. For the $400 I believe you can purchase a yearly membership, where you get access to the entire O'Reilly catalogue. Designing Data Intensive Applications is included of course. They also have some video courses & conference talks in addition to the books. If you don't want to spend the $400 then they also offer a 7 day trial and don't ask for a credit card....

- quastor.org is a good read (but it's free). They follow all the big tech engineering blogs and send summaries of the interesting backend-dev blog posts.

- bytebytego - this is also free. It's mostly diagrams and provides a very high level overview but it's a good subscription. You can also purchase their books on their website.

- LeetCode membership - good for interview prep if you're looking for a FAANG-job, pretty much useless for everything else (could be helpful if you like competitive coding though!).

- Udemy Courses by Hussein Nasser - I really liked his course on databases. Delves into the different database engines, tradeoffs, query optimization, etc. He also has a YouTube channel with lots of free content.

- codecrafters - I haven't done this myself but it's a bunch of interesting challenges where you build a toy version of Redis, build a bittorrent client, build a toy version of Git, etc. Could be useful to understand how tech works. In terms of a free version, there's also (https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-x) which is a collection of blog posts where you're building different things in various languages.
>> In science, 'adversarial collaboration' is a modality of collaboration wherein opposing views work together in order to jointly advance knowledge of the area under dispute.

> Seems like this is the ideal model for how politics should work.

If you think so, I don't think you really know what politics is.

IMHO, the adversarial collaboration is only practical in relatively easy cases, when there's already significant common ground and shared goals between the factions.

> Instead of the norm, which is opposing parties yelling past each other and blocking the other party just out of spite.

That's what happens when the factions are unified and have incompatible ideologies. The blocking isn't so much out of spite, but a desire to see something not done.
It’s more common in the US than many think, at least in some communities.

Absolutely, we think there are some really interesting use cases around imagery too - for exactly these reasons.
I don't understand your comment or the citation needed? Arabic, like Hebrew, is typically written without most vowels and that makes reading words like "sfr" or "ktb" a guessing game. Theologians still squabble over how "yhwh" is supposed to be pronounced (Yahweh? Jehovah?).

You can add diacritics to both Arabic and Hebrew to show all vowels, but this is rarely done outside religious texts.

Copyright law allows a copyright owner to license their copyrighted work to others, and also to put restrictions on how the licensed work can be used.

This is why if you write a book, you can license it to a publisher to print copies of it and sell for profit without them automatically gaining the right to adapt your book into a movie.
> and doesn't try to abstract things.

The C standard is a description of an abstract machine. You get UB and unexpected miscompilations, because the optimizer is not evaluating how your code runs on the machine you're compiling for, but simulates running your code on the weirdly abstract C machine, one that can't overflow signed integers.

And C abstracts away almost everything about stack, stack frames, and all the complexities of memory and cache hierarchies. They are abstracted to be uniform linear address space.
Can you tell more, please? I missed those news.
Yes, I often take the non-pennies out. Not for that reason, but because when someone comes in and doesn't have enough to pay for something basic - like milk, I can use some of the two or three dollars in quarters, dimes and nickels to make up the difference.
That's fair. I was thinking more in terms of applicable use cases, rather than limitations on liablity/warranty/sublicensing.

Although on that note, I find it somewhat funny to speak about something like the MIT license as conveying "rights", when half of the license's purpose is to take away the licensee's legal rights.
Sorry but as someone who works in ML, no one is paying hundreds of people to design a machine to replace a pizza influencer, that may be one task that is possible from a far larger purpose, but it's one of quite a few. Pizza making robots are also worked on in parralel and one does not stop the other (there are pizza making robots that work today, you can go buy them if you'd like). This is a false dichotomy.
Can anyone care to explain why Werner Herzog is famous? I just heard about him.
> The researchers go on to propose that which forms persist is governed by a number of selection pressures – similar to the way Darwinian evolution is based on “survival of the fittest”.

This misunderstands Darwin. Persistence is exactly the wrong measure. Darwin explained how new kinds of things could and do arise. The opposite of persistence.

This proposed new "principle" says things that last, last. Yes, and..?
I would also go for books, but if OPs here asking for courses they probably know they learn better that way/prefer it.

Multi Agent has several potential, I am having more confidence as there is some level of entropy on agent reply that makes it a worthwhile
My concern is lack of support for certain things and flexibility.

To be fair, I have very little knowledge of what's supported and what's not. If it help, here's 2 things I love about Linux:

1. The dev experience. This is obvious. Great package managers, native container support, etc. It all works great and feels snappy.

2. Ability to do obscure things. For example, a family friend may want a bunch of pictures archived. I can mount his google Drive with rclone, grab all of his pics and burn them to a blu-ray. Obviously, this is not an everyday use case but I appreciate the ability to do these types of things if I ever need to. I don't want to have to spin up a VM to support these odd one offs.

Move their music off it. It happens a lot. If a band's earlier Bandcamp album gets picked up by a label, they will insist on exclusive distribution, so the band will remove it from BC.

Magical thinking is a manifestation of the mind's desire for clarity beyond its reach. Instead, we should become comfortable with not knowing. That's the path of honest humility. Not all realities can be knowable and we should accept it rather than making up a false reality to make us feel more comfortable. We're better than that.
Sorry, I made the same mistake in another response as well. I meant to paste this.

Power user features like gestures should also never be the only way to perform an action. I like to be able to do everything in a program with keyboard shortcuts, but if half of a program's features are only accessible by keyboard I get pissed.
Apple wouldn't want Linux to be a first-class citizen on their hardware that competes with them, so this is likely a feature not a bug for them. For Linux to always be 6 months or more behind and a little bit buggy (more buggy than macOS at least) keeps them exactly where they want them. They don't want linux competitive or better than macOS, but having that free work available can drive some hardware sales to a group who otherwise might not buy them. It's quite brilliant actually, in kind of an "evil genius" sort of way.
Sounds like it will go far!
Doesn't matter. If God wants to hide he can spot you're measuring prayers and stay under the radar anyway.
The AGPL was created by a company named Affero, Inc. It's not clear to me whether that company even exists anymore — various sources claim that their web site was affero.com or affero.org, but neither site seems to be actively used by the company anymore.

So at least for the creators, the license does not seem to have been a rousing success, although that is of course completely anecdotal.
> I'm not sure which world was better, the old PC world where rootkits and other similar malware had free reign, or the modern "trusted" world

I'll take the old world over the new one, no contest. Sure, I had to actively work to protect myself from bad actors in the old one. But in the new one, I also have to protect myself from the devices themselves. That's a much more difficult prospect.
This is actually a brilliant bit of insight/tinfoil that I'd totally missed, largely because all the things that FAANGs have been saying to justify RTO have been so daft.

You're totally right, though. If the data shows that RTO has negligible benefit — or even, say, just a marginal 5-10% benefit — then the logical move is to force RTO for the most expensive headcount (since a 5% boost there will be the most valuable) and then hire globally-remote headcount for all the rest.

That... really feels quite grim, the more I think about it. Time to go stare at my early-retirement spreadsheets and see where I can squeeze out some more velocity for myself, I suppose.
> We believe the techno-capital machine is not anti-human – in fact, it may be the most pro-human thing there is. It serves us. The techno-capital machine works for us. All the machines work for us.

This assumes that only human agency is possible, I doubt that.
I agree with the premise, but why does this read like a tech bro and his finance/business major buddy in their early 20s got high and wrote it with the help of an LLM trained on /r/iam14andthisisdeep?

Meh. The article presents a rather disingenuous view of "both sides".

Gumps? Gumps went out of business in 2018 (Chapter 11). What Chachas is mourning is not a centuries old company, it's the less than a decade old plaything of an investment banker who bemoans the effect of remote work on his San Francisco business… from New York.

TogetherSF? They've put forth some rather dubious political positions and bankrolled the comically tone deaf "Fentalife" ads. Who cares about the opinions put forth by a group only interested in pulling cheap publicity stunts?

Otherwise it's a puff piece filtered through the perspective of tech. How droll.

Wow interesting! I've being using LinkedIn since it first started, and honestly this is first time I have heard a positive story that is not written by MS or LinkedIn staff or related people. I guess a broken clock can be right 2 times a days. Still won't touch LinkedIn with a 10 feet pole since the MS take over.
I recently started using NamesCheap.com mainly because a domain name's registration details (that show up on Who Is?) are kept private and that's included in their base price.
They’ve had the technology for a 20 years. I remember in the early 2000s my traffic engineer uncle describing a system he installed covering the major artery in their township. All of the lights were networked it would batch up people turning onto the artery then virtually guaranteeing your batch would have all greens on the artery if you stayed with in 5mph of the speed limit.
It's incredible how this community here, which is mostly against Discord as a Forum because it's not indexed and publically searchable, are so into ChatGPT as opposed to an indexable platform like SO.

I don't think you can say this is a community with opinions. Rather, there are various subgroups of people with strong opinions and certain posts attract one subgroup and certain posts will attract others. You can find a whole lot of people telling you building an app "on top of" an LLM is a dumb plan because they aren't reliable. And you can find a lot of people telling you to delegate all your drudgery to an LLM. That might seem a bit contradictory but it's really slightly different topics pulling in slightly different people.

And in the this case, there are lots of people willing to tell you bad things about SO. The story for such bad feelings is that SO was fun to do answers for and now it's really miserable. It may or may not sometimes still be useful in an objective but it's accumulated massive bad feelings. So just about any SO thread attracts the SO-hating subgroup rather than any other subgroup.

You can write a method that uses IEndpointRouteBuilder for creating a route group so that you can split up your routes by object domain or into separate classes or however you want to.

Then you add an extensions method for WebApplication that registers all of your route groups when configuring your app pipeline. Each time you create a new route group, you add that group to your WebApplication extension method and it's wired up.

It's a little extra work up-front when you're first creating your app, but it also results in a clearer structure for how routes are defined once the app grows into the size you're describing.

Unless I'm misreading this, it sounds like an app can only suppress the clipboard paste toast if either:

1) It's a system app, and thus has permission to "legally" suppress the notification. This can be a problem for pre-installed third-party apps. But if your phone doesn't have those, you're fine. (More or less; I don't love the idea that system apps can suppress the notification, period.)

2) It's an app that you've explicitly granted permission to draw over top of other apps. Which is a permission that's hard to accidentally grant, and is a permission that you shouldn't grant to any app, unless you super super super super trust it.

Seems like kinda a nothingburger?
I don't know what it is precisely, but I find this writing style to be unbearable. I can't even get past two or three sentences.
Not impossible, but very difficult. Reading between the lines it seems
that you are underestimating the effort involved. You say that you are
interested in type theory. Do you know everything about Hindley-Milner
systems, lambda calculus, System F, etc? Great! That's the very basics
and what you will learn in a CS master program at any reputable
university. But to actually do research in this area, you need to know
about all major results published in the field since the
1970s. Learning all that takes a lot of time. Then you need to learn
the practicalities of research, how to write papers, how to write
papers that gets accepted, etc. Phd programs aren't multi-year affairs
because academia wants to prevent students from progressing, it's just
that these things take time.

Then there is the financial side too. You're unlikely to ever earn
as much in academia as you do now as a developer with 16 years
experience. Phd and postdoc salary may be 1/2 or 1/3 of what you're
making now. Then there is the age thing (16 years of experience
implies you're 35+)... Your professors and supervisors might be
younger than you.

But if you fed up of writing crud apps or bug fixing the shittiest
t-sql code in the world then maybe it is worth it. If you've done
something you didn't like for 16 years then it is time to stop and
reconsider.
You hit the nail on the head.

> I still wouldn't "trust" you if that trust hasn't been earned elsewise.

And since a large swath of the tech industry (and most of the consumer tech industry) has spent years actively demonstrating that they can't be trusted, even if by some miracle they all suddenly decided to start being decent, it will take decades to even get back to the neutral point on the trust scale.
