I'm maintaining few projects and had really bad experience with rebase - it's about making sure that everyone in your team does rebase well and according to team rules, but it's just one mistake away to get into some drama, which I had been through few times. Once rebase has been disallowed, I never had to solve similar issues again.
> Powerlifting can be very dangerous.

citation desperately needed. Injury rates for resistance training is very very low. The far higher risk is in not training.

If you start juicing and compete to the absolute max, then maybe? Even then I am skeptical that the data supports this.

I don't know where this weird belief comes from, while the universal recommendation is to do both resistance training and conditioning to reduce a whole bunch of risk factors for health and longevity.

> What steps do you take to mitigate that risk?

Well, we train to make our tissues resilient, of course.
having a good hash uniformly distribute content helps scaling (by sharding of data)
No, we see the consequences that it causes in young people: The loss of sense of priority, the loss of capacity for independent discovery and the judment of reasonableness, the disruption of normal thinking (leading to making things up, to outright paranoia and psychosis).
Some dos and don'ts change over the year. The modern fashion of colorful gradients was frowned upon in the 90s and 2000s as cheap, amateurish, gross. But time passes, memory fade, eventually to stand out you have to start with something from far enough in the past.

Rules about scaling logos and making them work in monochrome and color are constant though.
I agree. Made by the people from Kotaku is not exactly a phrase that would make me want to visit a site.
Sounds like you people just lack a solid attention span mixed with a little paranoia. There's absolutely nothing "creepy" about that video.
Approximately all of that content becomes significantly more useful to society when fed into blender and released as ChatGPT, as long as the latter is generally available, and even accounting for it being for-profit, and any near-term consequences of propping up an SV company. By significantly I mean orders of magnitude, and that's going by the most naive take method of dividing utility flowing from ChatGPT by the size of training data.

So yeah, it may not be ideal, it's also of general public interest so much, that bringing up copyright seems... of poor taste.

(Curiously, I don't feel the same about image models. Perhaps that's because image models compete with current work of real artists. LLMs, at this point, don't meaningfully compete with anyone whose copyright their training possibly infringed.)
For all the shit we give Amazon, one thing I really appreciate about whole foods is that they have automated systems that will email you if something you bought is flagged as contaminated.

I got such an email for dried fruit that I bought for my toddler. I felt an indescribable amount of dread, because he ate a lot of it. We got him tested for lead levels and he came back fine, thankfully. In this case, it turned out that several samples in a batch came back elevated, and the recall was conducted out of caution.

I’m grateful that we take this stuff seriously, but we need to do better. It is abhorrent that contaminated products clear our existing tests and make their way to children.
> They then have to perform a super outdated, time-consuming, and arduous method of uploading the code into a testing environment to see what their code did.

I'd bet money that multiple developers have this automated and use that time to do other things instead.

I think you missed the greatest advantage: it can survive almost anything and can sit around for years and the contents inside will be unchanged.
> it requires considerable knowledge and experience to stay within the bounds of 'predictable'

No it really doesn't. Initialize all variables, always check boundaries and free memory when you're done with it. That about covers 90% of it.

Yes, this becomes more difficult the less trivial the codebase becomes. But beginners don't have non-trivial codebases, and teaching these concepts isn't hard.

> Python's hiding of memory is a feature when teaching beginners programming IMHO unless you want to start teaching close to the metal. I prefer to start from the algorithmic CS-y side.

And I prefer to start from the systems-programming, practical side. And in the practical world, memory isn't some abstract thing that may or may not exist, function calls cause overhead, strict typing is a friend, and networks fail.

So yes, teaching a bit closer to the metal has its advantages.

This is a pretty hyperbolic take on games reviewers, other than the paid reviews which does exist but is pretty easy to identify and ignore. I've seen games being criticised for being too hard but even Elden Ring, Lies of P et al aren't getting 1/10 for that. I've seen people lamenting the same lazy copy-pasted male character being the protagonist again and again, but never decrying that it's outright sexist that a male character exists in a game (and you're kind of telling on yourself with this one, tbh)

There's plenty of great games journalism out there. I'm similarly unsure about Kotaku, but let's not get silly here.

There's some lazy, parasitic, and axe-grinding writing in games journalism, as in all kinds of journalism. I am personally annoyed by how often I see Reddit posts and YouTube summarized like they're a story. But the good stuff is good, and this is IMO a good trend. Aftermath itself might suck, but I'd like to see more passionate video game writers get an opportunity to run their own outlet rather than churn out stupid bullshit about Twitter posts to create more surface for ads.
As mentioned though, it varies between different NFT projects. Some NFT projects lazily use Google Drive links etc instead. And then the files in the Google Drive could later be modified or deleted.

Ergonomic Remote Development
I know every kid is different and I don't blame parents for picky eaters, but kids pick up their habits of food at home very early, before they are old enough to get them at school or from other kids. My kids, who are older, have never heard of fruit pouches, and neither have I. If a kid won't eat what you put in front of them that's their temporary problem. Eventually, they will.

I know I had it easy. The first food my first child demanded was more broccoli. But I like to think that's partly because I put the broccoli on the table in the first place.

> Commercial real estate needs to pull its head out of its ass soon and start heavily discounting spaces or shit’s going to get real real.

Agreed - so many viable businesses have been forced to close due to rent hikes but the underlying problem is that there a lot of investors who were promised guaranteed high returns for commercial property. They should be forced to accept the downside of that gamble but as a group they have so much political clout. Pretty much all of the “return to office” hype machine is driven by those very well-connected people and cities are receptive because most downtowns were heavily over-focused on subsidizing suburban car commuters, which can’t easily be converted into more attractive spaces for actual residents.

You want packs of stray dingo dogs running around your kids and your homes? I see no value in that. Seems more intuitive for the community at large to use a shelter-system...When I was ten or eleven I nearly got mauled by a seventy pound stray dog that was fighting my neighbors dog.

No, the answer is because lead poisoning is really harmful (permanent, irreparable brain damage) and that makes the news. Nobody care about to much iron in food.

I gotta disagree with thesuperbigfrog in some aspects. In the corporate world, Java is still very much alive. Not just on legacy software, but there is a lot of new software being developed in Java. Specially with the advent of the cloud native frameworks like Quarkus and Micronaut.

Indeed it's not fancy as "new" techs like Go or Rust and I agree it's ckuncky and verbose, but there are plenty new features and applications for modern Java.
I did a project for a bank in Luxembourg that worked like this. We were building a reporting system external to their core system and so needed some test data. Because they didn't have a test system they would dump live data then edit it in Notepad to keep their customer records private. Needless to say half the problems we had were related to the Notepad editing part.

Any comments about how the team is going to spend the Unity-incident windfall?
It's the Debian usage of the term "stable". Seems kinda relevant for the discussion, at least to me. From https://wiki.debian.org/DebianStability:

This is what Debian's Stable name means: that, once released, the operating system remains relatively unchanging over time.

> That’s an eternity for new things like Zig

So why isn't Zig making sure that their latest releases are available in Debian Sid? Anyone can be a Debian Maintainer, and if they don't want to invest their time in it, they just need an existing DM to sponsor their uploads.

Current US copyright law is not clearly in a place to view model training as infringement. Courts have a long history of permissiveness in the face of copyright challenges to new tech (e.g. the image search engine cases, Google v. Oracle and smartphones, Sony v. Universal and VCRs) and I predict it will happen again with AI. The cat is out of the bag and judges know that finding training to be infringement of each training example will have a negative impact on a new product category. If training was more obviously infringement then that permissiveness would be harder to sell, but in my opinion it's really difficult to argue that a "copy" of an example has been made during training (aside from the copy made to process the example).
On a slightly different note, In my consulting days, I have seen a fair share of projects that have grown so complex in regards to infrastructure or they are deeply coupled with a specific version of a tech that sometimes it has taken weeks for me to get them working or worst they became impossible to set up on dev machines.

In my current company, I spent some time maintaining a docker-compose file just to ensure we have a reproducible infrastructure and all of it should work with a single command.

I firmly believe that ease of development has a major impact on the overall quality of the product.
Yeah, similar thoughts.

HAM radio has basically been middle-aged men tinkering with their toys and chatting in the over-the-air equivalent of IRC for decades now. All the emergency and research stuff is basically just LARPing.

But that doesn't mean it is obsolete. They're enjoying building this, and that's perfectly fine. Everyone is entitled to their own odd hobbies. Just... don't expect to be able to rely on it in an actual emergency.

Haters gonna hate, but crypto solves this.

Recent events show even in our liberal democracies, governments can't be trusted with the power they already have, and the enormous power that technology does and will afford them.

Well theres pointer dereferencing.

Not that I am much into gaming, but I just checked out the site and the one article I clicked on was literally the writer bitching about how the coffee machines were depicted in Starfield. I miss the gaming sites of the 90s and early 00s, you could expect to read passionate articles from gamers. Just reading the headlines on the main page makes me feel like they have some agenda to push, in a political kind of way, and you won't be finding any good game reviews here.
Use an iterator object that can use channels behind the scenes.
I know, right? God forbid we should share our opinions of things posted to an internet forum, on an internet forum. Whatever is the world coming to?

To answer your question less sarcastically, I watch quite a lot of 'technical' or project Youtube videos - e.g. Stuff Made Here, Superfast Matt, Colin Furze, Aging Wheels, Bad Obsession Motorsports, Matthias Wendel, Peter Sripol, Tom Stanton... and the video style in this case was such an outlier (even considering the trend I've seen in recent years across multiple channels) that it was mildly noteworthy. I can't remember the last time I skipped such large segments of a video from any of the producers I listed above (apart from sponsor segments, natch).

If it's the quirk of the individual producer, then of course it's his prerogative, no question. But if his goal is to grow his channel, such feedback may actually have value, given it might turn some viewers off.
If they are actually held responsible, they shouldn't end in a position of responsibility, so not that likely to generate high income.

This article excludes the middle: phones that are not smartphones. They can call and text their family, emergency services, and close friends, but that's it.

Also the "it's different for everyone" response is too simple. Kids have friends. One kid with a phone who discovers porn is going to secretly show it to everyone they can. Ditto beheadings, assaults, etc etc. This is bigger than the individual.
People don't generally torrent at work... I don't think you'd get anything.

Wikipedia was different, in that an organization had a vested interest in article content. But with torrents, organizations simply have a vested interest in not torrenting, since the content is frequently illegal.

Pretty sure they just block it in the first place usually (not necessarily trivial, but still frequently done).
Of course, in the scheme of things, you're maybe spending a couple hundred dollars more on the Ubers? That's nothing for many (as you say higher class) positions. I spend around $400 round trip on a car to the airport on my home end. Parking is expensive and I've also had issues.

Some combination of prices and convenience have in my experience shifted the norms though. I'd have reflexively rented a car in past times for a routine suburban business trip by air. Today, I'll spend at least a few minutes considering whether I sort of need a car for convenience/personal activities or whether Ubers would just be prohibitively expensive.

I'd add that the inability to drive closes off a lot of options. I regularly do a lot of personal activities that wouldn't really be practical without being able to drive. It's not so much urban but rural activities.

> I don't love that they love pouches.

So why did you get them? If the children are so incredibly fussy that nothing else helps, sure, in rare cases you do whatever works to get them to eat anything. But most children can be reared without ever touching anything like that. I'm sure my four year old gets fed things I wouldn't choose at times, but those are rare exceptions, and at school, after school childcare, and before that day-care, this type of product is just not provided, nor condoned (parents are instructed to provide the child's lunch and fruit for school; parents who give the child a 'pouch' like that do get called out on that).

I don't think my kid even knows these exist.

It’s not digital nomads that pack up WeWorks, it’s actual Mexican office workers. Foreigners actually are pretty rare to the point that in some locations security doesn’t even know that you can access with your own membership and ask you “Which company are you with?”
