Seems like a large chain would make things in bigger batches where things would be easier to control anyway.

Plus, it's easy to imagine a commercial bulk coffeemaker that's designed to make coffee at the average rate you're selling it, hold it in a cooling chamber for a while, then put it in a vacuum insulated chamber from there.

I like fresh coffee, and the safety issues is minor, but if it's going to be stale anyway, I might as well get the benefits of the crappy bulk process.

Especially when keeping it hotter for too long seems like it would oxidize something and make it even more stale faster.

> Is the web still suitable to help researchers share information if so-called "tech" companies intermediate access to all information and seek to commercialise all web use.

Yes, plenty of researchers share information via the web.

There was some original vision for the web, and of course that vision has changed in the past 30 years.
Rewrites in big tech are a symptom of too many people each trying to demonstrate impact that checks the boxes of an elaborate promotion process.
That doesn't sound plausible; this "person with direct knowledge" must have somehow received bad information or not been honest.

I have a globally very rare last name and also own the .com for it, registered it in late 90's so that all of us would get their firstname@lastname.com email addresses. During the last 25 years exactly one (1) other than me ever wanted one and that was my younger son (he did use it exclusively).

So even if you think getting firstname@lastname.com is cool, just like I did/still do, I doubt most of your family really cares.

According to Wikipedia[1] it looks like the rebranding effort from Swagger -> OpenAPI was in November 2015, but the OpenAPI Specification was only officially renamed on 1st January 2016. OpenAI was founded on 10th December 2015. So it depends how pedantic we are being -- technically on branding, OpenAI predates OpenAPI by 21 days. In terms of the spec itself (as in, the thing they adopted), Swagger v1 was released August 2011.

It's in the pattern of consumption. Obviously Elon Musk can't eat orders of magnitude more beef than the rest of us, but in 2017 he announced that the boring tunnel would dig a tunnel directly to his house. Now I don't know if he ever did that, but it's not particularly far fetched for someone with his resources to do. For arguments sake, the emissions of such a tunnel would be ludicrous when you calculate on a per person basis. Then you have emissions associated with luxury yachts, helicopter rides, private jets, etc. on top of elevated normal consumption (i.e. able to travel more often via normal means, while occasionally also taking the jet for a spin).

The very wealthy are able to afford to not go through the same public channels as the rest of us, and so their emissions don't get amortized over vast numbers of users. This is on top of the fact that they can already consume more anyway, which is to say, I have one car, but the very wealthy might collect them (buying new! another thing I've never done), and just the process of manufacturing a new car releases more CO2 than I could produce in several years of driving.

Sweden treats the roundabouts as it's own road. To get into the circle you yield to whatever is inside the circle. The cars inside the roundabout is on their own road so only yields on lane change from inner to outer lane. When exiting they are leaving the road and is yielding to any pedestrian/bicycle crossing directly after the roundabout. Well, they are supposed to do but mostly don't.

There are a few non-standard roundabouts that has no yield sign and the lane goes straight into the roundabout but then it usually doesn't have an outer lane before that entrance.

My ideal microwave would have two buttons.

1: The first two times you push it, it sets the timer to 0:30 and starts cooking. The next time, adds 0:30. Each time after that, it adds 1 minute and starts cooking.

2. Reset the timer to 0.

And a door latch which stops cooking.

I don't need power levels, or more precise timing, or any of that other stuff.
My "favorite" feature on the GE microwave that came with my house: If you cook something then walk away (leaving the food inside) then come back and want to zap it for 30 seconds, you must open and close the door to "Insert Food".

I started using Kotlin in Java 8 before the "record" keyword existed to be able to use "data class" instances. This provided very nice semantics for defining immutable structures, and the resulting classes could be imported into the existing Java codebase.

As the project progressed we started adding more in Kotlin and it massively improved developer experience.
That's not really that much of a problem to be honest.

If this is to be an industrial mining scale operation that goes in with a 600 million tonne per annum target (similar scale to iron ore for steel mining operations) then the company building out the capital assets will setup EV's and solar on the grounds of both economy and PR.

> Relational models are everywhere in Apps, they are often common in complex systems software like databases, and they are fairly rare in firmware/drivers/system code code.

It's not like that you can't write relational models in the safe Rust. The only forbidden thing is a reference pointing arbitrary memory, which is typically worked around via indices and often more performant in that way. It is much rarer to find applications that need an absolutely random pointer that can't be hidden in abstractions in my opinion.
"The oven must be on a SEPARATE, 20 Amp, 60 Hz-120V GROUNDED CIRCUIT."

20A @ 120V is only 2.4 kW max while you should only run it at 80% of the circuit/breaker load so 1.9 kW. Not exactly a fast charging EV circuit. It is not that much greater than a 15A circuit. It would take over an entire day to charge a typical EV, e.g Tesla LR Model 3, from 10-90%
I'm gonna say it. Instant Pots suck. They're too small compared to a crock pot and aren't really fast for a lot of things. Most things that you can cook quickly on a stove take forever due to pressurizing and depressurizing. I can cook noodles faster on a stove top. Rice is barely faster than my old rice cooker, and if I'm going to make a stew or something, does 4 hours really matter vs 8 hours? I suppose I could start the stew at noon instead of in the morning... But I'm still not gonna get a stew by coming home and cooking it in the evening at the last minute.
You hired developers, not DevOps people. I assume you hired them to develop code, not manage AWS/GCP/Vercel/younameit, right? They are simply doing what you hired them to do.

It’s not the same though. Red means stop. It is ambiguous as to who must yield precisely because there is no red light to indicate it. What would the rule be? Your best guess as to the speed and distance of the other driver?

In general, to be scalable and cheap, CCS needs to be mostly passive activities relying on biology and large surface areas. This would then usually involve farmlands, forests, or oceans. (Not necessarily trees because they lack automatic sequestration.)

I went from running the engineering team at an online virtual events company, to trying to start my own agency to cold-applying to a WebRTC vendor with online virtual events companies as customers.

The key was having experience in the business vertical for me. They wanted my former company as a customer, so that helped. My former company ended up becoming a customer too, so not burning bridges REALLY paid off :-)

I'd recommend an internal transfer if you can. It does make things a lot easier. My previous companies didn't have a role like this available so I had to go the cold application route.

You're welcome to think all you like about how great Marxism is. If you try to implement it here, I'll vote against you.
Problem is, the literal/default definition of "open source" is meaningless/worthless in this context. It's the weights, training data and methodology that matter for those models - NOT the inference shell.

It's basically like giving people a binary program and calling it open source because the compiler and runtime used are open source.
My Siemens oven wanted an Internet connection on first power up.

I fired off an E-mail to Siemens, stating that there was ONE feature which could tempt me into granting it access: NTP support.

Fingers crossed.
Commercial microwaves for restaurants are like that.
Haha, yeah. That is the likely outcome. Especially since while tech-advanced, in the country of origin, ain't nobody trust anybody.

That' a common way to implement (faceted) search where the search expressions are dynamic depending on the user input. With this style, if the user wants to search on one or more fields you simply add "and field = :value" and you don't have to check if it's the first or next search expression.

The 1=1 doesn't hurt, as it will be removed by the query optimizer anyways.

Why not focus on deterministic codegen only? Caring about some metadata changing does not seem to be as useful from a security perspective.

I don't think anyone can answer the "why" question you ask. I would guess because no one thinks such a database would serve any useful purpose, compared to the more usual ways to learn about entities and relationships. Using "ontologies" in a sentence does seem cool, I admit.
> GCP has done well integrating their different services together. GCP provides a smaller set of core primitives that are global and work well for lots of use cases. Pub/Sub is probably the best example I have for this. GCP has Pub/Sub. Pub/Sub seems flexible enough to replace most (all?) of AWS’ various queues.

I feel like if you're going to spend this much time writing something in this much detail, the least you can do is try to understand some of the things you're criticizing and not say things so wildly incorrect.

> In AWS you have SQS, SNS, Amazon MQ, Kinesis Data Streams, Kinesis Data Firehose, DynamoDB Streams, and maybe another queueing service by the time you read this post.

The most accurate criticism would be that Pub/Sub combines AWS's SQS and SNS. AWS had SQS first for 1-to-1 async queuing integrations. Then they added SNS for fan-out. GCP just started with fan-out from the start and said "well if you don't want to fan out, and just have one subscription, it's basically fine.

That's actually also true with AWS too - nobody is stopping you from using SNS this way. SQS was the first AWS service (S3 went "GA" first, though), and AWS doesn't deprecate things that are popular with customers.

Amazon MQ is Amazon's managed Apache MQ. You can criticize Amazon for hosting managed open source software, but there is a reason why it exists for customers that want to use an industry standard queueing service but not worry about operating it.

GCP's competitor to Kinesis isn't Pub/Sub, it's Dataflow -> https://cloud.google.com/dataflow Both are described as for the same use case - streaming, analytics, batch processing.

Kinesis Data Firehose may be another valid criticism. It can be thought of a "Simplified Kinesis that can push data instead of pulling it". It is clearly coupled tightly with Kinesis Data Streams itself, so in another company that cared less about not breaking backwards compatibility maybe they would've bolted those features on top of Kinesis.

DynamoDB Streams is also not a separate service. It's a feature of DynamoDB - streams data capture streams from a database. Exactly like... https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/change-streams-overvi...

> 2019 Update: Amazon has now released another streaming service: Amazon Managed Streaming Kafka.

GCP also has a Managed Kafka service only theirs is a collaboration with Confluent: https://cloud.google.com/learn/what-is-apache-kafka
