If you're going to be a corrupt dictator, that perceived dead man's switch of succession chaos is a good way to die of old age?

To make it less general and more specific

Over years, I've received peoples private medical bills; been subscribed to dating sites of various degrees of sketchiness; my email has been used to register with government agencies in countries of various degrees of sketchiness too; signed up for gaming, gambling, Crypto, banking, nft, investing, and so on - many things where my comfort level for mistakes and mistaken identity and Confusion and incorrect systems of record, is lower than "some kiddie signed me up for blizzard.net" :-/
I'm not really sure what your point is then. We should have comprehensive tests and therefore error checking isn't special compared to other programming mistakes? I think we should both have tests (don't skimp on them if given time, of course) and use tools like sum types to write more robust programs from the get-go. Errors can even be treated like other values using sum types; that raises the bar universally instead of just improving error checking.
You are comparing people that work on small sats to people who work on the largest rocket in human history.

McGregor is the most active rocket engine test facility in the world.

How are their insure rates compared 'per rocket engine test' with other places that test large rocket engines. But again, most of those are tiny rocket engines being test, so how about we look at insure per unit of thrust tested.

> The company’s facility in Redmond, Washington, had a rate of 0.8, the same as the industry average.

And what is the rate per sat produced compared to others?
There's a faulty assumption here that you must optimise for number of followers.

On Twitter, I personally observed an inverse relationship between my happiness and follower count. The more people that followed me, the less I enjoyed my time on twitter.

Besides, there's plenty of other reasons to not use website other than disliking the owner "for some weird reason".
I think of this as a graph of interconnected data and metadata. Unless the entire graph is anonymized, it's not really anonymized.

Deducing relationships between metadata elements (city field, and purchase store) ends up being the tricky part, and highly domain specific.
Hashes with salts make it a bit harder too.

For me, that "coming back" Distro had always been Ubuntu but since ~2021, I'm toggling between Mint and Debian. That's largely due to them pushing the snap paradigm down our throats. At this point, it's virtually impossible to escape that as firefox is only available as snap package in Ubuntu and not as DEB.

On the flip side, I don't like the other version of snap (Flatpak) either, especially so since Red Hat pulled that proprietary shenanigan recently. In fact, anyone who is supportive of open source, free software or commons ethos should try to steer clear of anything related to RH after that.
The same thing happened to me. Now I have two versions of "Documents" in different locations and not everything gets put in the same one. I'm done with Windows once 10 loses support, lately it seems like it's going out of its way to annoy me in as many ways as possible.
> I wish programming was like that more often.

Sometimes I think a shitty visible working prototype is a better goal than a more elaborate deep prototype that takes more time to see results.

for example, I know you can design in a log system, but you can start with printf and do the logging later. It's more important to tickle your motivation brain cells with something that works.

Or, you can start with a working project, strip stuff out, and get something visible. Then add your code.

There's also another (related?) trick - when something is working stop in the middle of a feature that is almost done. The next day you tickle those motivation braincells when you can dive right in and finish it instead of diving into the motivation-killing "planning the next step" stage.

* you can easily charge money

* they have support for marketing your book (mostly buying spots in their newsletter)

* you can change what you charge over time (so you can charge less when starting, and gauge interest in your book)

* you can collect email addresses of people who have bought your book and notify them of new chapters

Sure, they take some money, but it's a great platform not just for writing a book, but marketing and selling one.
I’m 50 and have been in tech for 25 years. Theoretically I earn $1M/yr but my RSUs haven’t really vested yet (new comp structure) so I’m not actually grossing that yet. It will take 3 years to really kick in. I have probably $7.5M in total assets ($1.4M retirement, $1M in non-retirement stocks, $5M in real estate equity, which is one family home and 3 rental properties).

I honestly don’t feel rich in the slightest. I still have to go to work every day like anyone else. You’re either independently wealthy or you have a job. That’s it. There’s two types of people.

I worry about what my wife spends at Costco. I worry about what I order at restaurants. I worry about mortgage payments. No different than anyone else.

There's a step before that - with Musk owning Twitter, the 'market' has clearly seen opportunity for competition that did not exist before.

Twitter has been Twitter forever, and Meta never decided to compete with it directly. Until now.
The more the price of apples increased, more people got divorced.
It’s also littered with the bodies of companies that failed to keep up with their early initial development speed because their development team cranked out two years’ worth of “whatever works” and walled themselves into a corner.

In my experience, that happens way more often than teams failing to produce value because they’ve spent eons polishing something to perfection.

On the other hand, our industry’s culture of not taking the time for anything to be built a little better means we have an enormous number of seemingly-experienced engineers who lack the understanding of how to write well-built software even if they are given the time. Which leads to individuals concluding that time spent cleaning things up is a waste because they end up with something worse and more complicated afterward. So they don’t invest in learning this skill, and the cycle repeats.
Hey, thanks! I was thinking about game ideas while stepping into the shower one day (where all great ideas are born), and "throwing people in a first-person view might be fun?" came across my mind. I mentally fleshed it out a bit, and wrote it down. When the idea I was already working on turned out to not be fun, I shelved that and started working on this instead. When I prototyped the basic throw feel and it already felt fun, I decided to run with it.
And obviously the way to solve this is to make another, more confusing UI.
> nicotine ITSELF is carcinogenic

That has never been proven conclusively, even with hundreds of studies attempting to do so. At best (if one wants to assume it is a carcinogen), there's some plausible mechanisms where the contaminants/metabolites of nicotine (like NNN) can cause cancer, but there's zero evidence that consuming nicotine in a pure form and without pyrolysis (i.e. not e-cigs) causes cancer.

Heart disease is much more plausible: nicotine can raise blood pressure, narrow arteries, and increase pulse, like many other stimulants. Whether it has uniquely dangerous CVD risks compared to other stims is also far from conclusive.

The market for actual systematic non real-time data on flights etc is pretty diverse (airlines/airports, finance & leasing, maintenance companies and aftermarket parts suppliers, insurance, consultancies), but companies are paying the likes of Corium or OAG for systematic structured data in formats that make creating forecasts or spotting opportunities easy, not because darknet data dumps are the only way to find stuff out about a company.

I'm not seeing much value in loads of Boeing-specific tech data for current generation civil aircraft though. Most of it isn't that secret, there's no viable market for copying Boeing parts without Boeing approvals stamped all over them, maintenance on Boeing aircraft is done at manufacturer-specified intervals regardless of whether it's a Boeing facility or a third party with Boeing approvals, competing aircraft have completely different needs, and if they really wanted to know how Boeing solved a problem that's bugging them they could just poach engineers...

Yup. In fact, it (at least was for decades) actually illegal for a company to use your SSN as an ID number.

But, it was standard practice for at least every medical insurance company and hospital I encountered.

I of course thought this was a bad idea, and found out about the law. Every time I went to interact with a new insurer or hospital, they'd assk for my SSN. I'd say that my SSN can NOT be my ID number, and invariably get in a 5-15 minute argument with the rep. I'd end up telling them to go check with their higher managers. They always came back saying "yes, we can use a different number, here's yours", or with a form filled in with "Assign ID" in the place of my SSN. Once I had my assigned ID, and just kept telling reps that ID when asked for my SSN, things were mostly fine.

Evidently, the main corporate policy was to break the law until someone called them out. Seems it would have been so much easier to just use the database UniqueID function for everyone...
That song, which is such a great/weird one-hit wonder, has flummoxed so many people! I worked at a record store in high school in the early 2000s and people would come in all the time humming or attempting to sing various songs. I got freakishly good at identifying even the hardest/weirdest tracks. I used to keep a playlist on my iPod of the weirdest tracks, which sadly has been lost to time.

Over the last 20 years, that skill has ebbed some, but I still get friends sending me their attempts to express the earworm stuck in their ear. I have an 80% success rate and enough OCD to usually track it down unless someone just gets stuff straight wrong.
Do some web research on the additives in cigarettes. What I have heard from people who do research into cigarette addiction is that the additives suppress the bad effects of smoking (such as coughing, lungs feeling burnt, not being able to breath, etc.) When you stop smoking you also stop getting the additives and you suddenly feel all the damage smoking has been doing, which makes it much harder to quit. You literally feel like hell when you stop.

In terms of stepping up, they seem to be tackling through Wayland issues. The latest 545 seems to have people on forums saying “this fixed so many Wayland issues for me”. Now either they are paying professional astrosurfers, or they legitimately fixed some classes of bugs (or it’s random). My experience though is that this kind of feedback tends to be genuine. So I’m giving kudos where it’s due and it seems like the Nvidia team is starting to focus on Wayland issues. Similarly, I was observing recent bug tracker activity on Chrome and Nvidia and all that seemed to be tracking bugs on their end (which not surprising - Nvidia and Google have strong relationships between Android, Chrome, and formerly Stadia).

I don’t know the details on the Xwayland BS (which is the main visible issue I’m seeing as unhealthy). I have not done the technical research to fully understand whose position is actually justified. Heck it might be that both sides are correct on the facts (it doesn’t make sense to add the support that makes other GPUs work and it doesn’t make sense yet to add the new way for Nvidia) but the net outcome is that Xwayland on Nvidia’s propietary drivers remains broken for the foreseeable future. Both Intel and AMD both support something called implicit synchronization. But apparently explicit synchronization is “the future” because it enables more performance and Nvidia has clearly communicated they’re not going to support implicit. Xwayland only supports implicit synchronization and refuses to add explicit synchronization (I think strong arming their position is that the explicit synchronization protocol is isn’t ready or not popular enough yet in the ecosystem? I’m not sure). Nvidia has contributed some patch to fix Xwayland to use explicit synchronization when running on the propietary driver (or something like that).

It actually make some sense if their official explanation for the purpose of the vehicle is true. If the main reason for the X-37b is to bring material to orbit and study the long term effect of being in space, then going higher make sense.

In an elliptical orbit, you can cross the Van Hallen belt and magnetic fields over and over again. Then after a couple years return those samples to earth for study. This gives you valuable data to build better satellites in the future.

For examples, the gyros flywheel on the Hubble and it's sibling spy telescope failed over and over until they realized the radiations caused some arcing in the bearings which degraded them much faster than predicted. When you spend billions on individual satellites, this isn't the kind of thing you want to discover in orbit.

This is extremely wrong. FOSS would be better if things weren't redesigned every other year from scratch. KDE, Gnome, MuseScore to name a few. I was a master of MuseScore 3 and the year I finally became 100%, they dropped support shipped the absolute shitshow that is MuseScore 4, broke every single one of my workflows and finally forced me to use lilypond full time. FOSS is a redesign-after-redesign shitshow just like big name software are. I just want my software to work today exactly the same way it worked yesterday and it seems impossible to achieve that.
Agree about virtualization in principle. Not that nightmarish though.

My Sciter supports built-in virtualization out of the box. But I shall admit that this is second approach to the problem.

Currently Sciter's behavior:virtual-list supports as fixed-height items (that's easy) as variable-height items like messages [1] in chats.

API is relatively simple [2]: single event "contentrequired" that virtual-list sends to JS. In response JS shall either append or prepend requested number of DOM elements to the container (a.k.a. sliding window scroller). Example, grid showing 20000 records: https://gitlab.com/sciter-engine/sciter-js-sdk/-/blob/main/s...

And needless to say that this supports animated (a.k.a. kinetic) scroll.
