Vercel is great for pre-prod ethereal environments for testing and CI. But they desperately want to sell you their enterprise stack which is completely inadequate, and will drag their feet for months if you just want to sign the damn “pro” version.

Naomi who has a kid she never tells him about and whose ex (who she also fails to mention) is the head of a lunatic fringe terrorist organization? Naomi who was also a part of that and was integral in executing an attack (also without a mention)? Naomi who disappears without a word to go infiltrate that organization in a move she thinks is likely to get her killed?

The system is completely broken with you taking 12 years to train.

It means that:

- you are expected to learn way too much and only have a surface understanding of a lot of things (see tick example from sibling comment)

- your time is very valuable so you can’t put any time effort into patients at all to try to deeply understand anything that doesn’t pass your “known expertise” classifier.

My son has back pain that most closely matches descriptions of sciatica.

The 3 MDs he has been given a cumulative exposure time of maybe 15 minutes to have resulted in prescriptions for various muscle relaxers and steroids based on a single xray. No attempt to look at any soft tissues and none of it has helped.

The industry is an absolute dumpster fire of ineffective care unless you land in the top 20 issues for each sub category.

No offense, but the job of diagnosing one of the thousands of possible issues should not be yours. This is what computers are ripe to disrupt. ChatGPT isn’t there yet but something like it that can just crunch data and known results for every obscure thing is going to blow you out of the water. We can both only hope…
I have experienced the flip of this: a less experienced MD specialist not recognizing a lab error, and wanting to act on it, which was recognized (correctly) as an error by PA primary care and confirmed in retesting. In this case the MD was significantly younger/less total years of experience and maybe that had to do with it?

PA experience isn't the equivalent of training as a resident (and I think we should be training more MDs) but the MD isn't always right either.
Same question. Monitor + keyboard/mouse, I guess.

I would recommend Book of Proof: https://www.people.vcu.edu/~rhammack/BookOfProof/

We used this in my Discrete Mathematics class (MATH 2001 @ CU Boulder) (it is a pre-requisite for most math classes). The section about truth tables did overlap a bit with my philosophy class (PHIL 1440 Critical Thinking)

I think people underestimate the power of something to look forward to in life and a group of friends/acquaintances to do it with.
but that's how it's officially supposed to be in other companies as well and it never works out that way. The PM sits at the middle of customers, leadership and implementation and the leadership then continually talks to the PMs and tells them what they want and the PM relays it and so inevitably the PM becomes a sort of artificial authority figure even though it is supposed to be a flat hierarchy. And of course a professional, informal relationship develops between PM and leadership because they talk all the time and so if you ever dared to ask leadership directly for whether this is really what they want, they'll back up the PM.
I’m surprised that places with terrible reputations (e.g. Amazon) still manage to recruit at all.

Then again, companies like that also have long-timers who like it there so perhaps the reputations are overwrought?

Who is "they"? In the UBO threads I've seen there are about a hundred supportive comments for every entitled dickhead - if that's enough to make you characterise the community as "turning hostile" then you are unlikely to ever be satisfied. Bad and inconsiderate people exist. The sensible thing to do is just ignore them.
A game that I've seen referred to as 321 Word (or nowadays, Say The Same Thing) was certainly entertaining on car rides in my youth.

Here's a video of people playing it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htdtUDepcok

The objective is that you both say a random word. Then both those words together make you think of a different word, and you keep going until you finally both come up with the same word. It goes on really wild tangents, so how you start has nothing to do with how it ends.
Let's say we have 16 distinct phenomena. All of them are currently explained by a rooted tree T of explanations of depth 4. Say, we come across 8 new phenomena. Suddenly you can't rejig or shake your tree T anyhow. You have to preserve the original structure of T or at least relationships while constructing a new tree R such that it not only explains old 16 phenomena but also the new 8 as well. We might construct a new tree R such that tree T is a subtree of it. This new tree covers more ground and has more depth. In this sense, new explanations are constrained by whatever that came before and they are tasked with explaining more on top of that. There are very few ways to do it. In physics, they call the more general law to be valid at all time scales, energy scales and length scales, velocity scales and so on.
> is a relatively modern concept and not the default economic state throughout human history

This is speculation.

> earlier societies often operated on principles of reciprocity and communal sharing rather than for-profit trade.

Any society that had specialization of labor did more than that. Heck, the American Indian tribes measured their individual wealth via horse ownership. They certainly engaged in trade with the intent of profit.
My impression of nix package maintainers is that they are providing a useful interface so that software can be composed easily. Most of them are not making any kind of assertion about the contents of the package. Expecting to use their signatures for anything meaningful strikes me as a bit like expecting product support from a delivery driver.

You don't need to trust it wasn't packaged maliciously, nix does reproducible builds so you can just look at the derivation and build it yourself if you don't feel like relying on the binary cache.

As for whether the underlying contents are malicious, that's between you and the developer. If other distributions have have lead you to believe otherwise, then I think they have misled you.

The only exception I can think of is Tails, and they don't exactly have the breadth that Nix does.
Also, simple stuff like bandwidth is wildly overpriced with Vercel. My company switched away from all their magic image resizing stuff because as our traffic increased the bandwidth was 10x that of doing all media content through Prismic.
All my life I wanted to work at Microsoft. I read a book in 91 about Bill Gates and how he hacked DOS together and the introduction of Windows. I was just a kid but I was dead set on following his footsteps. Well after several rejections throughout my career, I finally got into Microsoft via acquisition. Started working my way into the Microsoft org and met some horribly, horribly biased individuals and managers. One team I encountered expected 60 hour weeks to be the norm, prioritized metrics over delivering features, and treated me as an outsider. Completely opened my eyes to how Microsoft was so ruthless over the past 3 decades and immediately made me nope out of there.

Someone on HN said it best: don’t meet your idols. (FWIW another person told me their team wasn’t so toxic, but the damage has been done)
I find it interesting that people seem to be trading short term gains with long term reliability and maintenance costs. This glut of 0-friction deploy services lull people into a nice false sense of security.

But in actuality you are wasting hours, days, weeks of time when they become unreliable, support is unresponsive, or something unexpected pops up.

There is a huge advantage (outside of amateur, low importance projects) for putting in place - at the beginning - an infrastructure that is dead simple and reliable. AWS, GCP may have some upfront complexity but provide advantages in terms of reliability, knowledgeable support, and proven track records.

I would never recommend these current platforms to be used for building a long term business on top of. I have been tempted by the siren song of one click deploys but in the long run so much extra time is wasted.
Isn't this essentially the basis of decision theory and statistical hypothesis testing? The hard part is to determine an acceptable probability of being wrong in any given situation.
On the contrary, I find in amazing to see the lengths that Apple apologists will go to point out these spurious reasons why Apple included non-removable batteries.

The only point that you really list that is defensible is waterproofing. Lighter devices? Cheaper to manufacture? The idea that making a removable battery would make a phone noticeably heavier or impact the cost more than a cent or two is laughable.

Even with the waterproofing, I'm dumbfounded on how one hand people can laud Apple for their truly amazing engineering capabilities (I may question its utility but the Vision Pro is really an incredible piece of engineering), yet somehow a waterproof removable battery (which some other phones have) is beyond their grasp.
YT is too big for people who hate ads to not invest a massive effort. The ad blocker endgame will be YT videos being "pre-watched" by a headless browser running in the background and the video data grabbed from there (either recorded or directly). You then watch the ad-less video in a custom frontend. If implemented correctly there's pretty much nothing YT could hope to do about this.

Not to me, it isn't.

There are plenty of areas-of-interest that attract both hobbyists and serious academics alike - which also tends to attract unwanted attention from callous legal departments who are keep to adopt a shoot-first-ask-questions-later policy - things like (lawful) research into DRM techniques, retro video-games (and not ROM hosting), infosec disclosures, and so on - so if you're really into those areas and want a safe place for your lawful content but without worrying about your site/content/services being taken-down without good cause then it makes sense to side with a provider who is able to resist DMCA requests.

> People using lambda functions are getting ripped off, they could just buy a couple of VPS.

A non-zero amount of our CICD pipelines are "perform API call with secret pulled from SSM/Secrets Manager". They happen 1-2 times per day and take less than a 5 seconds to run on each invocation. We currently have a burstable EC2 instance running 24/7 to handle these which costs us ~$5/mo. My napkin math says that this would cost us ~$0.01/month to run these as lambdas. More to the point though, we're limited in concurrency on these. It's pretty common that they all get triggered at the same time, it would be ideal if we could allow for an "unlimited" number of these to run. This sort of workload would be great to run for lambda functions, the engineering cost of implementing it just doesn't ever make sense.

If we paid someone $150/hour to spend half a day on it, right now our break even point is probably 5 years...
> Fantastic work here! I was griping to my team just last night how painful developing a chunking strategy for Australian Legislation is that while there's (generally) layout consistency within a piece of legislation, that's not true across pieces of legislation... so I can imagine the pain of trying to collate legislation across jurisdictions.

Absolutely, there's a lack of consistency even within the same jurisdiction and document type. It only gets worse once you want to add multiple jurisdictions and different types of documents. My best strategy so far has been to use recursive chunking where you begin chunking at the largest section of newlines. Ideally though you want some form of semantic chunking where you already know what parts of the document represent Parts, Divisions, Schedules, Sections, Sub-sections, etc...

I think the standard pre-reqs in the US are two semesters of biology, math, and physics, four of chemistry (general and organic).

I doubt that any of this is directly relevant to patient care and honestly, I’m skeptical that it’s either necessary or sufficient background for the stuff that is.

I mean they can, kind of. Top tier guys will have sex with multiple women, some of which will be "lower" on the rankings than them. This leads women to believe they are in their league, since they are having sex.

Then time comes to settle down and those guys don't settle with those girls. Cue "Where have all the good men gone?" and "Why are men so scared to settle?". It's the same problem the average male faces, just in reverse.
Steve Jobs once said a computer is a bicycle for the mind. How much of what we now have in terms of computer infrastructure is as straightforward and streamlined as a bicycle?
I haven't seen one of those for years, is there anyone still doing them? They are great. They're a huge amount of work though so I wouldn't expect one for a new game.
At my last place we ran into a number of issues with using DO in production. It was fine for dev machines, testing, etc, but we had production downtime due to DO's networking setup, and support were unable to understand the problem, let alone fix it.

Quick summary: we backed up our other prod hosting to DO over SSH. One day our backups went offline, DO claimed this was because of a DDoS attack, but our backups were working fine and there were no noticeable effects. Only one port was open, SSH, and we had great security on it. Support re-enabled networking for the host, backups resumed, then the next day the same thing happened again. We told them not to do this, and they said they could not, and that we should "put Cloudflare in front of it", completely missing how that was not possible or useful for our case, and missing the fact that we were not having any problems other than DO disabling networking.
That is meaningless from a legal standpoint. Press credentials are not a real thing with any official weight. And if someone reports news as a volunteer for a non-profit organization are they not a journalist?
Your point was completely orthogonal to mine, which is why I didn't address it. It's harder finding new or worthwhile reads because Amazon is incentivized by volume, not quality; it's the same reason high-quality clothing brands also don't sell on AMZN.

If these drones act autonomously there is no radio link that could be detected or jammed. That makes them much harder to fight. Just recently I read how decoys are deployed to attract enemy missiles in Ukraine. I guess such drones can be fooled just as well. Or even easier. The drones themselves likely can't even track perspective so you could lay down an image of a tank and when they're over it, it looks like a tank and they descend to blow up a tarp on the ground.

I do wonder how we should rate the danger to civilians. Obviously it's not great to have loitering drones that will strike you if they classify you as military. My assumption here is that civilian protection will be largely be ignored and only treated as optimization problem to waste as few as possible drones on civilians while detecting military targets at a still good rate. I don't think that any drone would reconsider if it detected civilian activity near a tank.
You hear from the people who like to complain. You never hear from the many others who would say it's a good or OK job, or even those who think it's not great but just aren't the type to get on twitter or write blogs about it.

Most people aren't ecstatic about their jobs. It's a means to pay the bills, and they suck it up because they have responsibilities.
I’m not sure I’ve played a game where putting it directly behind doesn’t feel terribly uncomfortable. The player character ends up in the way of what people are looking at and moving towards.
I briefly checked the axioms, and if I recall correctly, Velleman's book does not delve into ZF in detail, but it is a beginner friendly book to give enough exposure to quantitative logic and set theory to feel comfortable working on proof-based mathematics such as LA (not survey version of LA, which should be called matrix algebra instead).

Would love a bluetooth muxer via rpi.

Have a few devices that keep conflicting with one another and acquiring the connection to my bluetooth headset. I have to go through the hassle of navigating to the offending device's bluetooth settings, disconnect it, go to my desired device's settings (which, although it reports it is connected, doesn't actually produce any sound), disconnect it, then reconnect it. Each time.

I'd rather have them all stay connected (maybe one cheap dongle per endpoint) to my rpi and then route to the intended destination with just a press of a physical toggle/key/slider etc, or via phone app.

Additionally would like to be able to simultaneously mix multiple audio sources to the one headset.. oh, and all of this with no latency overhead, please :)
> In November 2019, I experienced my first panic attack while I was working from home. It was around 4 p.m., and my left pinky went completely numb. At first, I ignored it, but it got worse: An hour in, my ears were ringing, and my heart was beating really fast.

> One day, she experienced intense stress at work, which brought on a severe migraine that sent her to the emergency room. She knew she had to make changes and ultimately quit her agency job.

These people made the right move. It's not worth sacrificing your health if you're able to get a decent job in a more relaxed environment elsewhere.

With that said though, some people handle stressful situations really well, and others handle stressful situations poorly. One of the reasons these jobs pay so well is that they're stressful, and they need people who can handle that.
> 500m years seems like a long time. It is not.

I mean...talking about timelines like that is difficult because of the way we perceive time, I think most people can't have any reasonable discussion about something that far out. If we try to make it more comprehensible by saying humans have existed for 200k years and have 500m before Earth is uninhabitable, humanity is the equivalent of 12 days old in the scope of an 85 year life expectancy. We're newborns in diapers drinking milk, thinking about what kind of inheritance we'll leave for our great grandkids.
I'm baffled that you so easily dismiss the idea in an age in which unrealistic expectations for women is an issue that has been talked about to death.
> Even our printed materials now are on high acid paper that essentially turns into saw dust after less than a hundred years.

I've heard this a lot and don't find it credible. I have many books that are from 1 to 150 years old and none have shown signs of turning into sawdust. I even have 40 year old computer mags that are like new.
>Aren't these sorts of hardware drivers generally written in-house by the company who makes the hardware? Can't they pick whatever license they want since they own the copyright?

I gave you an example of OpenZFS where this is not the case. The code in hardware drivers may not be owned entirely by the company. It could have even been done entirely by a third party which may not even still be in business. Even if they were willing to license there would be extra costs in making the code into a state that can be upstreamed. Even then it might just never be accepted.

>A company that asserts the existence of "trade secrets" in kernel modules deserves to have to do the extra work.

This is an unreasonable stance that hurts end users. If no one exists to maintain the kernel module end users will get stuck on old, insecure, kernel versions. Even if they get updated it prevents people from upgrading until there is a version all drivers support.

>All kernel modules should be open source.

That is your opinion. It is not true in practice meaning there is utility in having a stable ABI.
Roll your own. I've got one running PiKVM software on a Pi Zero 2W with an AliExpress HDMI-CSI board connected, and the whole thing bundled together with kapton tape and hanging off the USB port on a headless system. I had to mask off one pin on one of the two microUSB cables. I think I'm into it for about €50 including the Pi0. The instructions are/were on their website.
If your up for it, I recommend the review by YouTuber “SkillUp” on Allen Wake 2 makes some good cases for why someone might enjoy it. He also compares it to the studios other games.
In many cases the coils were integrated into the casing of the battery, and the back panel of the phone was thin enough to transfer sufficient power through.
