Another factor that would be interesting to control for is 2-parent households. I don't know how you provide adequate support for single parents while also encouraging 2-parent households, but it doesn't seem like we're trying either.
I don't. As I said, there is the natural "chemical fit" that you have or not with someone.

I consciously avoid making up my mind after the first seconds or minutes (which is an atavistic reaction) but after an hour or so I usually have an idea of "no", "yes", "not sure" (for the "will fit in" perspective).

Since the teams are already quite diverse, there are no obvious bias that would pop up. I want to have people of all kinds (everyone can provide something different) so i am very open by definition. But I need to feel that they will be a good fit.

This is of course completely arbitrary and based on gut feelings.

I am not sure about which blindspots you have in mind, though?
Television shows aren't tied to any particular platform, either. They just need some platform. Plenty of shows have been dropped by one network and picked up by another, even very well-loved shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Expanse. Talking heads like Jon Stewart jump ship all the time. Tucker Carlson was dumped by both CNN and MSNBC before Fox picked him up. Megyn Kelly was on NBC within a month after Fox dumped her.
I was interviewing a CISO for a prior job. We asked how they would expand our team, given what we have and what we do. The candidate said that a typical team needs X, Y, and Z, but they really couldn't make an informed decision like that without being in the environment for at least a few months and seeing the way that things actually work.

My peers and I, who would report directly to the CISO, loved the answer. One of the CISO's potential peers on the interview panel thought that the candidate bombed the question, because "shouldn't they just know what's needed?"
These Chinese police stations exist in the United States as well.

I have not heard of any 2nd amendment 'events' that have occured at these stations.
Compare to Twitter which has reduced the differentiation between a long form article and an unsourced image and you’ll find that Google News is nevertheless much superior to any other way to get information (though twitter was superior last year!)
It’s NYC. There’s going to be an underground gas distribution that fills that gap.
1. Rent-seekers are sucking up all the productive surplus out of the economy, raising the cost of a lot of things.

2. People doing work vital for society got raises, which was made possible by bargaining power that they gained from low unemployment. This, naturally, results in higher prices for anything that their labour produces.

3. Shortages.

None of these are the fault of the immigrant boogieman.
Interestingly 90% of energy in Norway is produced with hydro and the rest is mostly wind power
Indeed, one thing that most seniors learn is humility and being able to say I don't know, without caring about consequences.
I wanted to make Linux on the Web precisely because I knew that Unix Philosophy on the Web would never catch on.

"Linux" is merely the current pronunciation for the ideas that were coming out of Bell Labs in the 1970s.
> but couldn't point to RAM on a motherboard or explain what it really did.

To be fair, the last time I "opened up" a computer and changed its RAM was about 10-12 years ago, and since that time I've only worked on a Mac Mini and on a laptop meant that "opening up" computers became a thing of the past.
Staff SRE here: I comfortably exceed your TC by a factor likely approaching 2.0 doing harder shit than your whole team combined. That’s nothing against you, only that you don’t really know what you’re talking about here. I can safely conclude that because 20% of your app dev TC is not in any ops in the US, particularly not DevOps-school, not even “legacy-style” SA; hospital SA, for example, used to be a high six-figure, pensioned gig, until we commoditized ops as a concept in our reinventions and pushed everyone to AWS.

Hint: I wrote operating systems for fun before becoming an SRE. Imagine how much fun I have explaining context switches and CPU cache invalidation and their implications on their app’s performance, to application developers who consume frameworks and look down on my salary! Building a distributed computer at scale is much, much, much harder than your Linode tutorial expectations of what ops does.

Native software is mostly dead, so operations is software engineering now, at least those parts of software engineering you folks threw out when Docker came along and turn your nose up at, and I make more money every year cleaning up the low-hanging fruit y’all leave around, so…
I thought Lumberyard was forked from CryEngine 3.6? Did they refork or rebase it from CryEngine 5?
Libraries are the best they've have ever been in the history of civilization. Library-denialists pretend SciHub and LibGen and friends aren't "libraries", or are somehow inferior libraries to the authentic, irreplaceably-traditional experience of bicycling 90 minutes to the inner-city mold barracks where nodding hobos guard rubbish bins of yellowed paper—the approved, compliant source of knowledge.

The wealth technology has created is staggering, like Andreessen was ranting about earlier this week in that emotional essay. Any human on the planet (almost) can flip through any book or paper ever written (almost), instantly at any moment—from their couch, from the back of a horse on the Mongolian Steppe, anywhere. An invisible cathedral of books spans the globe, and we're always standing before its glowing altar. A planetary-scale library. This is a wonder of the modern world and we ought to be glorifying it, extolling the ingenuity of human technology and the greatness of its civilization.
Main hardware comment: 4 way right angled Lemo cables. Must be fancy.
Dunno why there are so many foot-draggers failing to deploy better DNSSEC algorithms. I’m grumpy about SHA-1 in particular https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-fanf-dnsop-sha-l...

When I query vjhv.verisign.com I get a response containing four 2048 bit RSA-SHA-2 signatures in 1049 bytes which is well within the EDNS MTU for unfragmented UDP, so I’m not convinced the problem is as bad as you paint it. There have been problems with EDNS trying to use fragmented UDP, but that has been reduced a lot by newer software being more cautious about message size limits for DNS over UDP.

DNS needs TCP even in the absence of DNSSEC, because there are queries you cannot resolve without it. Some operators might convince themselves they can get away without it, but they will probably suffer subtle breakage.
That’s an option but it makes both of them less money. Google has pulled out of other countries as a negotiating tactic because they can afford to lose that money indefinitely but that does not mean it’s optimal for anyone.

> And in any case, it's not like these resources are going to waste, the war in Ukraine (we will elide the other conflicts) is very much worth the investment from NATO's perspective.

The ammunition is not being "wasted" as it is splattering the bodies of men, young and old. A protracted war, which could well have been avoided, rages on, with Millions of refugees, a country's economy wrecked, and probably half a million people dead or wounded among Ukrainians, separatists and Russians. This talk of a "worthwhile investment" is abhorrent.
Why Denmark is so special in that regard I do not know, but for Europe in general if you are directly employed by a company you get good training, and the ability to get a lot of help and support from colleagues (based on European consultancies that I have worked for). I've also worked for Asian consultancies and there is more of a sweatshop mentality in those companies where "everything" is about the billable hours and there doesn't seem to be the same sort of work/life balance (I'm half Indian just for context so try to see the European and the Asian angles)
> If the police are the regulars, the citizens are the Minutemen. A scalable, ubiquituous force ready to act at a minute's notice.

This is a weird fantasy that isn't really playing out with the Second Amendment rights we have.

Meanwhile, there are other industrialized countries where people don't always have guns, and sometimes even the police do not have guns, and they are doing better than us in terms of crime and safety. Of course, if you think of countries like Japan, their cultures are simply superior.

I am not against someone owning a gun to protect their household, but these kinds of grand arguments fall flat in front of the data we have.
"""The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. ... A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.""" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory
And in those cases plugging in your EV amounts to no net gain or loss, but there absolutely are people who already have to make a dedicated trip to the gas station because their own town where they do their shopping simply doesn't have one.
I'm not sure about the garbage collection improvements since I haven't touched the GC, unfortunately. My philosophy is generally that I just let it do its work.
That appears to be in progress, so it looks like regulation is working.
Time to move to the country side. Discover a whole new aspect of "...so you're saying I can get basic groceries in town, but gas is 15 minutes further in the opposite direction of where I live?".
You can surround text in asterisks for emphasis, *like so*. Use a backslash and an asterisk or two asterisks together to output a * literally, **like so**.
And so it’s a balance :^) I personally take the approach of specializing in what I believe to be my natural talents (i.e. seemingly able to pick up X much easier than whoever) while just being generally aware of new technologies or other spaces/sectors. Also tinkering and/or having a general interest in tech helps lol.. IME doing this has helped me pivot into a new tech or other areas where I may not be specialized in, but may need to eventually be for a new role. Also worth mentioning is taking a pragmatic approach to problem solving in general.. I’ve personally found that if you’re able to demonstrate solid reasoning and/or problem solving, generally learning a new lang or specializing in something different than what you’re used to, isn’t too too bad. I’m not really sure how specialists outside of tech/in other sectors can transition into other roles “easily” though… hm.

Edit: I wanted to mention that IME in STEM, most? More often than not? are goal oriented… It is _completely_ okay to not have any “working” thing at the end of your tinkering/learning… The journey into that “thing” can be a learning experience in and of itself. I’ve often started to learn things but after a certain point have told myself “I’m gonna stop here and that’s okay. I don’t need to have a solid understanding of this, at this time”. YMMV…
I guess they'll survive. Next. So many "we layed off some people" articles here to flag these days.
The solution is to go "web scale" and add a technology with magical indexes and no transactions because IT FAST! What could possibly go wrong.
That's now how I heard it.

Event loops were old hat in GUIs, and web servers like Nginx adopted them so they could service thousands of requests concurrently without allocating stack space for thousands of threads.

And the context is not the same. Switching threads requires you to go through the kernel scheduler, so it has to change page tables and stuff in the CPU, right?

It lets you write simpler code too, because some events can be handled in the loop without involving mutexes and thread safety.

If async/await is, as you claim, a pointless hack for interpreted languages, why did Nginx, written in C, get so much traction with essentially the same architecture?
Maybe Google intends on pushing those activities entirely on device later?
You can have vacuum pig by siphoning the liuqid out?

In most places, Gasoline is already cheaper than milk, for instance.

Most people just don’t buy 20+ gallons of milk at a time.

Propane has gotten down to $3.30/gal in the US West.
I've seen this repeated often with no analysis to back it up. Can you link to some? I'm quite skeptical that it will be effective or cost-efficient enough to do better than updated land and farm management techniques.
There are "clipboard managers" that will internally copy the last copied thing as best it can from the clipboard owner, and then when the application exits, will mark its copy as the clipboard owner going forward. If you aren't running a clipboard manager, then yes, nothing will happen.
Yup, that's still my the worst banking experience.
Maybe it is as bad as it appears. Something does feel off in their content, Disney-esque.

Or maybe the show had terrible ratings and it wasn't worth the potential grief. Why needle a business partner (China) when there is no upside?
in the hot ones reveal for this he mentioned using pepper x distillate in the sauce. isn't that just another word for extract or am I misunderstanding?
Yep.

Lose selection === unable to copy. And it's at all times up to source app to decide what it will allow to be copied.
Well, I have heard the word 'Mongo' uttered in passing....
No it's not. You can set up async runtimes that run on a single thread and service thousands of long-running connections with slow clients. Tokio, the most popular Rust async runtime, starts one thread per CPU core by default, and you can have thousands of tasks running on just a few OS threads.
I agree with your analysis. I think news is generally accurately reported. I agree there can be some slant and distortion in the telling, and in my opinion it calls for response; I love efforts like alas shuttered Newstrition that would display a news nutrition label, with things like a "spin" factor. I think there are layers we can and should be getting better at to temper ourselves as consumers. https://ijnet.org/en/story/newstrition-labels-aim-help-reade...

However, the bulk of the parents argument wasn't about the veracity of the news, albeit your quote did show a strong dig from the parent. The parent was chiefly arguing that being aware of the world seems to be a bad thing, and that globally we would be better people by not being aware at all of the world. No matter what the news looked like, the parent argued, we shouldn't read it.

It feels like some crazy dark world shit to me. I can't imagine a return to the darkness, to being unaware of each other & the happenings of this planet. It's a burden, yes, and I think there's a ton to recommend about finding balance where local matters and our own lives aren't so entirely outshadowed or even sandblasted away by the enormity of the acts unfolding upon the global stage. But I just think of ignorant easy to manipulate peasants & awful fuedal systems, when we can't or won't consider the setting & events of this planet.

We are a better species for this noospheric connection we have, and rather than fret about whether we should go back, I'd like to figure out how to progress forwards, like to figure out how we can do it better.
I don’t care about middle-click paste, but having selection auto-copy is also implemented by terminal emulators like Putty on Windows, and I wouldn’t want to miss that.

What’s problematic with the Firefox behavior is that content gets copied (pasted) that wasn’t selected by the user.
Assuming the taxes are just on first-hand sales, the subsidies on new EVs probably flooded the rural regions with cheaper-than-expected 2nd-hand ICE vehicles.

Obvs the market for newer 2nd-hand ICE vehicles is going to wash away.
> I think the challenge will be for the employee to try and show that workplace conditions vs, WFH are so much worse to warrant organizing mass subordination as a way to improve it.

No, it won't be/ First, because its the NLRB that needs to make its case, but more significantly because the legal protection against retaliation for workplace organizing doesn't depend at all on a determination as to whether the organizing was "warranted" by how bad the situation was:

29 USC Sec. 157: "Employees shall have the right to self-organization, to form, join, or assist labor organizations, to bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing, and to engage in other concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection, and shall also have the right to refrain from any or all of such activities except to the extent that such right may be affected by an agreement requiring membership in a labor organization as a condition of employment as authorized in section 158(a)(3) of this title."

29 USC Sec. 158(a): "It shall be an unfair labor practice for an employer-
(1) to interfere with, restrain, or coerce employees in the exercise of the rights guaranteed in section 157 of this title;"
I think it’s more troubling to view owning a car as a base right that everyone should have. It’s better as a luxury. We want fewer cars and for people to live in walkable areas where cars are not needed.
But if there's no longer any gas stations on any of my usual trips, it'll become a special trip.

Also it's not fun having to make your trip even longer stopping to get gas. I'd prefer to just leave the house with a full tank every time.
Thanks for the contribution, I guess?
In my opinion, unless you destroy the new EV in its early life and the battery cannot be reused or recycled for some reasons, it's likely much better to sell your ICE now so it replaces a more polluting car.

You could also compare the pollution per km in the remaining lifetime of your current car, and the pollution per km in the remaining lifetime of a new EV. Your local electricity grid may improve over the years, but you could ignore that.
> The OP is saying drive the car as much as possible and as long as it doesn’t have problems don’t mess around under the hood.

If that's what you and the OP are saying, then you're conflating the codebase with the end product (program). Yes, the end user (at least in an ideal world) shouldn't need to modify the end product. That wasn't ever disputed, though.

The point (if I have to use your car-modding analogy instead) is the manufacturer's engineering team very much does need to be able to evolve the design (read: source code) for future versions of the car.
Nice to see an accurate (offsite) status page!
It is simply unnecessary to own a car in New York city and my impression is that poor folks in the city already largely don't own a car. The only way to maintain more gas stations than the market naturally demands is to subsidize them or otherwise distort the market. In NYC it would involve taxing everyone including the poor to subsidize the well off.
BTW, besides the impact on climate, it's worth taking into account the effect of tailpipe emissions on health. This is where EVs have a big advantage especially in crowded areas.
This effect is true but the thesis is dumb. The rich are rich because of the compounding effects of wealth. Not that small fraction spent on durable goods.
I have been searching for a new phone for months, looking for something small and with a headphone socket, it's literally impossible.
I think we only really care about the oil being burned, not merely used as chemical feedstock. In this regard we do also have to care about oil fuel heating, oil fuelled power stations, and the transport that uses oil derivatives but not normal petrol stations (flying, shipping, non-electrified rail, probably some others too), so I would still say this is a good start rather than the actual end of oil, but for different reasons to you.

Peak oil is still a thing, and we will still need to shift the feedstocks to something renewable, but the schedule doesn't need to be the same.

What is the least expensive EV one could buy in the middle of nowhere North America?

I'm open to anyones knowledge in this area I dont have but our primary mode of transportation when we were struggling was a $2,000 USD 30 year old Toyota.

If you don't think EVs are a luxury than we both need some clarity.
I am technically q full stack dev and I don't grok how aspnet core actually generates the web requests. It's layers upon layers of magic to me.

Similar with mediatr, I know conceptually that it "just" checks for the right classes in the loaded assemblies. But still feels like some weird incantation to use, to me. And I have such huge knowledge holes across all layers.

Sometimes i feel my lack of knowledge to such a degree, that I question whether I should even be a programmer.
It seems to be South Dakota and Iowa that killed this
Gibbon was biased by being a Victorian imperialist whi thought empires per se were a good thing.

The decline in big public works were probably the result of the loss of an empire that could cocentrate resources.

I thought concrete did continue to be used, but differently?

This all seems to spring from the myth of "dark ages"
One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet: the guidelines explicitly state that the Twitch chat experience must be >= other platforms.

Many streamers use bots to interact with chat for things like raffles, giveaways, custom coin gamification... and these bots usually don't support multiple concurrent platforms.
Because of this stipulation, I've already witnessed multiple streamers say "if you're watching on Youtube and would like to enter, you must go to Twitch and type !X in chat"

Whether intentional or not, this is a sly way make the actual streamers 301 to Twitch.

I would love to use a SQL database where all tables are DISTINCT and unordered as a rule. A true relational model.
> Why wouldn’t they?

Because their primary purpose was to provide open access to literature and information, which is now widely available thanks to the internet.
SciHub and LibGen is great. However, in my own field and adjacent ones, they are nowhere close to having complete coverage of publications from before the era when a publisher’s own digitized edition could be taken and uploaded; so many basic publications that are paper-only are missing. I myself have scanned tens of thousands of pages in order to fill in LibGen, but I have still barely scratched the surface.

And while the non-fiction/scientific-papers side of LibGen can seem impressive, the fiction side is meagre. Literature in languages other than a few of the world’s major languages is missing, and poetry is especially badly represented even for major languages.

In many places a real library offers some kind of inter-library loan service that can get you all those things that you won’t find – and perhaps will never find – on LibGen.
