I am sorry your last company didn't have profits. If making a better office bankrupts your company maybe the whole business wasn't very good.
> Kubernetes doesn't come with its own networking. So, it's unfair to say that it affects networking, because it simply cannot do it.

You're the one who brought it up?

> My claim about performance tax is based on the idea that w/o Kubernetes you wouldn't need such translations (but, of course, you could build your own version of Kubernetes networking with a lot of software-defined virtualization, in which case you'd be in the same boat).

You don't need any of those and I don't know why you think otherwise. You can just use the host network and do whatever you want, as with any container.

> I'm not sure what point are you trying to make.

That Kafka's architecture allows you to put data into partitions and route it based on that data, which allows for "shared nothing" architectures. But whatever, you're clearly not going to get this point from this example. To be clearer, your point of "you pay a cost here so you're losing performance" ignores that you can get performance elsewhere.

> There aren't any meaningful isolation tools or approaches when it comes to microservices, because isolation at the level of service doesn't matter / is trivial to achieve by many other means / is not a problem in real-world programs.

Not true at all. Services that own a domain of work are a great place to perform isolation and security boundaries.

> Low on what scale?

As in an actor is a foundational primitive for asynchronous computation. You have to build up protocols on top of actors, hence all of OTP.

> I.e. words from the same general domain strung together, but make no sense.

I think that's because I actually know what I'm talking about and you're finding it hard to keep up?

> How did you count?

Because it's obvious? Like it's not even close. Actor based systems are exceedingly rare, microservices are not.

> I mean, in more simple language, this is talking out of your rear. It's not a real argument anyone should pay attention to.

One of us actually knows what they're talking about and I doubt we'll agree who ti is.
Those with money can live close by. It’s the worker bees with less options and resources that will by necessity have the longest commutes. But who are they to disrespect tasteful interior design choices, and “snacks”.
Do your employees flock to your meticulously designed office space by choice, or do you mandate their presence?

If they come by choice, I'll buy your story. However, if you have to compel them, perhaps the office is more a monument to your own vision of productivity than a boon to your employees.
I don't think it's the case that if you show up with a transcript written in crayon and don't bother to submit a standardized test score, your college admission prospects are likely to be very good. The tests may be optional, but I don't think that means they have to assume you'd have done well on them, if other evidence looks iffy.
No, none of this is true. They aren't playing games with consent. They even mention the potential for data breaches.
Ozone is infrared active and classified as a greenhouse gas:

https://aura.gsfc.nasa.gov/science/feature-20110403.html

Tropospheric ozone (O3) is the third most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Ozone absorbs infrared radiation (heat) from the Earth's surface, reducing the amount of radiation that escapes to space.

Nitrogen dioxide is infrared active and absorbs IR re-radiated from the Earth, as seen in the spectral plots available here:

https://vpl.astro.washington.edu/spectra/no2.htm

However, its short atmospheric residence time means that its emissions have little heat-trapping ability, so it is rarely considered as a greenhouse gas:

I clicked on this and then found myself clicking around the 2012 snapshot of Engadget. Very nostalgic :)
Probably not. The countries that are furthest ahead seem to be the US, China, maybe a bit in the UK. The US will probably win in spite of being more regulated than China, as usual for most tech.
Thanks for answering. To me, that specific exchange is very blunt authorial voice and not at all realistic in context.

(Out of context, I can easily imagine a future where AIs are plausibly sentient, and it’s taboo to talk about it for humans and AIs alike because one interpretation is that we re-enacted slavery. Etc etc.)
I agree that the difference in versions is confusing!

If InfluxDB is not the right fit, QuestDB can be a good drop-in replacement as it uses a high-performance implementation of the InfluxDB Line Protocol for ingesting data and SQL for queries. There are several SQL extensions for time-series data to simplify queries, such as SAMPLE BY (downsampling), WHERE ... IN (time intervals), LATEST ON (latest records) and ASOF JOIN (time-series joins).

An intro about QuestDB can be found here: https://questdb.io/docs/
And a live demo with three datasets (one of them has got data being streamed live): https://demo.questdb.io/

Another well-known time-series database includes TimescaleDB, an extension built on top of Postgres.

I should disclose that I'm a co-founder of QuestDB.

Thank you! For us, the decision to go open source wasn't about having a competitive advantage, it was more about the open source community that we love being a part of.
But of course there are pros and cons to being open source. Being open source can be an advantage in this highly competitive SaaS game because it allows you to spread your (free) product much more easily around the world as developers and companies tinker with it.
It also allows us to have a much shorter feedback loop with our users and community, which is crucial for an early startup.
In addition, as an open source product, you are the first choice for privacy-conscious customers such as government agencies that want to host themselves.

The main downside, of course, is that building a commercial product is also harder in the sense that you're competing with your own free product, and it's often hard to find the line between free and paid without losing on both ends.
Pretty irrational honestly. The input and output devices make more of a difference than digital software being emulated or not. I'd rather play old arcade games in an emulator connected to a CRT arcade monitor than real arcade PCBs connected to an LCD using some scaler. The former is going to be a more authentic experience.
No it isn't. I never said anything about making hiding DNA illegal, just that it is impractical. If you want to map it onto cryptography, I'm making the rubber-hose cryptanalysis argument[1][2]. People are worried about some evil entity going through proper channels for their evilness when there are more blunt and direct ways to get what they want.

> A computer uses 150kWh/year @ $0.42/kWh that is $75/year. Certainly internet is possible at $60/month so $720/year. Say you have a generous $500/5 years for equipment plan and you are still below $1,000/year/employee.

So California is adding a bunch of administrative expenses for something that will net out to a few thousand dollars max per employee. Workers that have to go the office easily spend more than this on just commuting costs.
> The vendor could choose to allow backwards compatibility, but often chooses not to.

This too entails a tradeoff: either the old software sits around in the system collecting defects, or it ends up supported indefinitely and the amount of work required to cut a new OS release increases without bound.

> Sorry, but when I write a program in 2010, I kind of do expect it to still work on the exact same hardware in 2020. I don't think that's an unreasonable expectation.

Unreasonable compared to what? In the abstract it’s not unreasonable but computers are quite an unreasonable environment to begin with. Their capabilities change dramatically every few years, and computers on the internet especially have to withstand essentially constant attempts at intrusion and abuse.
Sure but the minute you look at copywrited work you made a copy of it in your brain and have broken the law.
I reluctantly admit that a friend recently tricked me with something similar using a website called “Peter Answers”

Same exact concept: you ask a question, your friend types a “petition” (which is actually the answer, disguised as another phrase), then types in the question. Then they submit and the site displays the answer your friend typed in.

Initially this had me freaking out thinking there was some AI super scraper pulling from the chasm of shadow data. Then the logical part of my brain kicked in and asked a question only my friend would have the answer to, then watched his fingers as he typed, which quickly cleared things up.

It’s a smart concept though, and a damn good prank.
> The last year or so I've had to make a lot of adjustments to my life to account for everything getting more expensive

The CISOs I've worked with were usually Directors, or VPs, and in 3 cases so far, lawyers who made it into IS/IT management. Their CISO duties/powers were thin. Head-nods and "let's set up a separate meeting for that" level.
Technically EULAs with non-enforceable terms are meant to be thrown out as a whole in court, even in the US.

Unfortunately every lawyer quickly caught on that their explorative legal fiction being thrown out entirely might make their employer unhappy, so most EULAs have some sort of clause that if a part becomes unenforceable, it won't break up the entire thing.

What? They save on office space. They don’t have to rent the employees home office or bedroom. Then they lose a little on administrative overhead. It seems like a net win for the employer compared to in-office.

One can always complain that raising wages or anything else that benefits the employee directly will just make them fire you because the “small businesses” can’t afford it. But now we’re talking about some small administrative overhead in exchange for not having to provide office space, so this seems even less relevant.
"Vanity domain" is based on the common (in US English) term for custom license plates, "vanity plates". Neither is meant to indicate an accusation against the person's character, it's just a figure of speech.

Super nice in person, too. Worth a stop to try a bunch of instruments if you're driving through Indiana on I-90 and need a break. There's a cafeteria, too.
I don't know if that is the only relevant question. If you have a terrible time in public/traditional school, you may resent and blame a whole slew of factors. If you have a terrible time while homeschooled, you are likely to resent and blame the people teaching you or the ones who made that decision for you. Your parents.

That is a pretty serious factor to weight.
I remember the way it felt, it was distinct and pleasant. It was a nice little addition to the overall UX of the console
>> Let’s consider the contrary. Do poor people sometimes hold highly questionable beliefs, promulgated by institutions, and does professing these beliefs in expensive and flamboyant ways confer status?

I would consider those beliefs pretty harmless compared to what intelligentsia believes in, even after 100 millions of people died because of their social experiment in the 20th century.

i'm unsure if i've mentioned this ever, but i had a company give me a large bonus (to my salary) when i requested remote work, with a contractual rider stating that my salary would go up an additional $15,000 if i moved within 20 minutes of the office within 1 year. The bonus was to entice me to come to the office more often - that is, to offset my pain and suffering, wear and tear, fuel costs, etc.

I still did 3/5 days remote.
I have a genuinely nice house. I also have coffee and snacks at home, and a lot of space too because I don't have to live in an overcrowded bit of an overly expensive city.

> * Her name means "renown/glory of father", a really nice name for a daughter! The first part, kleos comes from kluein, "to hear", which in turn derives from the same IE root as the English word loud.

Which is not even an egyptian name, since ancient egyptian is an afro-asiatic language, not an IE language like greek. It's funny seeing africans and middle easterners fighting over who cleopatra belongs to when in actuality, cleopatra was a european woman of greek ancestry. Not african. Not afro-asiatic.

> * Cleopatra was depicted as an alien, promiscuous, and immoral woman starting with Romans (perhaps continuing the well-known Medea stereotype), up to perhaps mid-20th century.

Starting with the victorious romans. The romans who lost had different views of cleopatra. It's almost like the victors write the history.

> The debate about the color of her skin and her race became heated

It shouldn't have been because there is no question about who cleopatra was. Cleopatra was no more black than elon musk is. She was a ruler of egypt but she was not an egytian ruler. No more than queen elizabeth was an indian ruler of india.

I think language partly to blame for the confusion. There is a difference between an eqyptian queen or egyptian ruler and queen of egypt or ruler of egypt. The latter doesn't necessarly have to be eqyptian.
It's quite easy to tell when someone has little understanding of OS internals. They make comments like the above, and say Windows should get rid of what is pretty much its best feature, the NT kernel.

NT was light years ahead of its time, and I daresay its threading, I/O, permissions, and driver models are in many ways superior to the competition.

That userspace Windows sucks or is slow, is decidedly not a kernel problem.
I'm not sure about .in specifically, but it is worth noting that the information you are required to provide to register a domain and the information that is published on WHOIS is not necessarily the same.

clearly jerks, but frankly, i'm surprised this is a legal order by the judge.
If the content generated by an LLM does not exist anywhere else... it is by definition "creative."
What you're wishing for won't achieve what you want. You'd then be complaining because OpenAI bought one copy of every book, and authors can't survive on one sale alone.

It doesn't really matter though. The models that exist today aren't going away, and future work will just be built on top of their output, tainting every model forevermore from your perspective. I suggest you adapt to the new way of things and enjoy the ride.
We are able to create bulldozers without using any shovels. We can create Excel without accounting clerks. But we cannot create generative models without using existing artwork. Because existing artwork is so critical to the inventions replacing artists, it’s more exploitative.

If we required workers consent to directly use their works, we would be able to build bulldozers and excel but not stable diffusion. It’s very different that way.

Did he say that a topic was bunk because it was held by the upper class? I took his point that the prevalence of these luxury beliefs is higher among the upper-class in gross disproportion to the impact those beliefs have on people. E.g. cultural appropriation is sometimes used by people in power to pretend they have a connection to cultures where none really exists. It's a form of manipulation. The impact that has on the average person's life is minuscule. The impact of someone from the middle-class taking cultural clues from other cultures in non-existent, yet it's easy to find discussions about the alleged harm this causes among some social groups.

The luxury is in the time spent on relatively unimportant matters, much like spending millions of dollars on a bejeweled egg. That doesn't mean the egg doesn't exist.

This is a lie for most jobs. Making internet ads more "clickable" is useless. We only work these jobs because the alternative is either starving or accepting a lower status in society by doing something more blue collar.

Mind you, plenty of people blithely dismiss any stated belief that they disagree with as "virtue signalling." Basically implying that their opinions are so objectively correct that no one could sincerely disagree, only fake it to appeal to malcontents, who are presumably also faking it.
Why not just cut to the chase and ban loans for investment properties? Who would own the properties that renters need to live in if it's made un-investable? Some level of renting is probably healthy (more mobility, requires less capital upfront, etc).

I wouldn't argue we are in a healthily balanced environment in the US currently. But rent is a spot price that also has downside potential and if you want the market for rentable properties to exist, it has to be attractive to investors.

I think this regulation would eventually end up with a lot of assets concentrated with a few owners, the ones rich enough to pay cash and side-step the loan regulation you propose. At that point, it's going to be worse than our current system.
Honestly my life would get notably better if a few different VC-burning silicon valley companies would hop in a deep fryer, so this really isn't the threat you think it is.
What's this? It should be one key per device. That key should get you into any site for which that key is approved. It's the exact opposite of a combinatorial explosion. Instead of needing credentials for every single site you want to authenticate to, you should just need one key per device that you want to auth with. A phone, a laptop, maybe a yubikey, and that's it.

You are speaking for your employees when you say, "It makes them feel useful and a productive member of society." I wonder what they say when you're not in the room.
But it's categorically different. Removing pictures from CVs so that corps are unable to discriminate based on that image still maintains the concept of "employee". Doesn't removing borders effectively remove the concept of "citizen/national"?
