I can’t help feeling bad for the tablet kids whose parents didn’t buy them a real game system. As someone who grew up owning an iPod touch, it still never felt like a proper place to play a game compared to my Nintendo DS or PlayStation 2/3. Phones have always been riddled with throwaway apps because that is the market that was incentivized.

Nobody ever set the expectation to pay $20-40 for a game on your phone. It was always free to 99 cents. Maybe a popular well-known franchise like GTA could charge $6-10 at most. Of course with that sort of price we can’t expect developers to maintain their apps, unless they happen to make a mainstream addictive gambling app disguised as a game.

Lest I insult mobile games too much, plenty of traditional console games lose multiplayer support. Or even if they still work, there’s nobody to play with.

To be honest, the developer probably stopped updating and maintaining the multiplayer server(s) (apparently at least 5 years ago) because nobody was playing. They’re still an active iOS developer.

The truth is that I’m not sure you’d find many people on the street who have ever heard of this game.

Yes,debugging long running /complex / multistage pipelines is a tedious process, however imho it does not make a huge difference if one runs the same pipelines locally (they won’t turn into something more lightweight after that local run), however instead we would rather have simple steps ( scripts) which we can debug individually

> When considering the implications for Western countries, the authors highlight that the provision of affordable high-quality childcare support, which goes beyond effective supervision, should be prioritized.

> Ratios of caregivers to children were greater than five-to-one in the observed hunter-gatherer groups, whereas in UK nurseries each adult is responsible for numerous children.

There is now way you can pay for these kind of ratios. These ratios can only happen due to a social structure that involves large extended families and a social structure that has a large proportion of the population (pretty much all the females) that spend all their time with each other and the children.

However, that would be a huge step backwards from the progress we have made in women’s rights and equality.

There are plenty of examples of Python libraries that can be performant such as NumPy and PyTorch (which both rely on C/C++). Some libraries such as Hugging Face's tokenizers even use Rust.

That's not not the right idea. The absence of a visual indicator is not a good way to let me know my current call is fraudulent. Especially since it's most likely most people will not have a call with their bank almost ever, so they'll not have any familiarity with the fact that such a banner is supposed to be there.

I recommend using urban dictionary if a generic search doesn’t yield a result that makes any sense.
A bank that never calls or messages via traditional phone/mobile network and never uses email is the best. Always use secure in-app communication. And use secure device binding + password/pin + biometric authentication for access. Use a pre-registered and securely couriered FIDO2 token (Yubikey) + in-app video-KYC for initial setup and credential resets. Don't depend on another channel for resetting any of the credentials. Educate the user that you will never contact them via any other means. Establish these secure expectations with the user from day-0. Within the app, always do additional factor authentication for any monetary transaction. On the server-side, have per-transaction, per-day limits for fund transfers. For large value transfers, require payees to be added to the account and have a 1-2 days cooling off period. Notify the user during this cooling-off period and give them ample opportunity to intervene if they think it is a mistake or fraud. Have low-friction instant payments only to pre-verified and registered merchant addresses. For person to person instant transfers, have velocity limits and legal framework to clawback and prosecute in case of fraud. For out-of-network (say international) instant transfers, definitely require payees to be verified and added to payer's account and have fraud protection funds to enable swift clawback and legal frameworks for prosecution across international borders. Without these types of protection, any increasing in banking velocity is bound to result in more fraud harm than traditionally accepted.

Dedicated airport trains are expensive, because the fixed costs are high and somebody has to pay the bills. Their passenger numbers are often naturally low, because they only make a few stops, which are not where most people are going. Metro lines and local / regional / long-distance railway lines that would exist without the airport are always more cost-effective. For many people, they are also more convenient, because they go to the right direction and stop at the right place.
Scopolamine?
Can never resist re-reading Brooks, it always sparks some thoughts.

""" The added burden of communication is made up of two parts,
training and intercommunication. Each worker must be trained in
the technology, the goals of the effort, the overall strategy, and
the plan of work. - Brooks """

A modern overlay is that we've two more factors; the means of
communication and the number of channels keep moving/growing. How
often did the project move from IRC to Slack to Teams to a fancy new
internal project management system and eventually to hell in a
hand-basket? How often does a project uncontrollably partition into the
team that hang out in the forum, the Whatsapp division, and the IRL
group who meet at the pub? Coms coherency as big a problem as ever.

It makes me remember what Meadows thought, that "communications paths"
aren't a strong leverage pint because they're generally fixed. That's
not true any more - most real people do a lot of band hopping.
Meadows also skips lightly over the /effectiveness/ of coms, and
things like S/N ratio, while Brooks notes it in several ways.

I also had a weird insight. Productive ventures see communication as a
cost (beyond an optimal point), but social media systems mark
communication as value to be encouraged for it's own sake
(afvertising). So they make awful bedfellows because even if you don't
obviously use an ad-supported platform the design of the latter is a
celebration of inefficiency. Yet so much "business" is conducted
through these channels.
The way the author decided to configure its program is pretty interesting.
This is insecure because it relies on people having the app installed and knowing to check it. Why not call the user through the app itself? Why not send a notification through the app telling the user to find the official support line and call that?

Banks should not call you anymore since it cannot be trusted.
Long lived data is stored as a volume which is just a directory on the host. You just backup the directory like you would any other.

I feel like people are misunderstanding.. containers are a wrapper. You can run whatever APT plugin or unattended-upgrades on the container as well its just linux. You can then even snapshot this new state of the container into a new image if you want to persist them. Like you can fully simulate the usual workflow of a regular server if you really want. They don't take away any functionality.

Another thing is docker is not necessarily the be-all end-all way to deploy things especially in production. If I was running Sourcegraph seriously in production, I might not use it. But it does make it so much easier to just try things out or run them as a hobbyist.
hmm, WhatsApp rings my phone more than regular phone network and like me billions of people pick-up WhatsApp calls everyday.
It was just an idea.

Anecdote time: A few years ago I had too register for a ceremony in the university. They had few slots, and the date was a random day of the month announced in an obscure web page updated randomly. So the solution was to go every few days to look if the new one has been announced and try to register soon enough.

So I think tracking a date may be useful. It's more complicated because there are like a million of formats, dd/mm/yy, mm/dd/yy, MMMM dd, dd MMM, .... so it's not easy to support.

In my case, probably "something changed" was enough. But I guess in other case the announcement page my have a few independent parts that change for other reasons.
This happens a lot when discussing all kinds of influential people from the past. Take some author with a lifetime of producing great works of art and influence… inevitably someone will come out of the woodwork to say “bbbbbut he was a homophobe” or “bbbbbut he married a girl at 15” or “bbbbbut he was a slave owner” As if that one fact, measured by today’s very strict moral yardstick, invalidated the person’s lifetime of achievement.

> "For more than 95% of our evolutionary history we lived as hunter-gatherers. Therefore, contemporary hunter-gatherer societies can offer clues as to whether there are certain child-rearing systems to which infants, and their mothers, may be psychologically adapted,"

You can cherry pick anything that fits a narrative. This narrative advocates for more funding for state sponsored daycare, which does not resemble anything close to the 'caregiving' that was going on in hunter-gatherer communities.

I bet 95% of our evolutionary history also involved bashing in skulls over arguments regarding food or resources, mass rape, living in caves, and not wearing clothes. Should we return to that too? The difference between those things and the example given in the article? Fortune 500 companies don't get more workers. Big corporations can pass the buck to taxpayers to fund childcare. Naïve activists will promote this in the vein of 'womens rights' as if dumping your kid at a state sponsored daycare is empowering or something.

Why does it have to be all women?
Austria here. Relatively high corporate taxes (25% on corporate profits, then 27% on distributed profits to shareholders if I remember correctly), and it's hard to give employees shares. The latter they are trying to fix now by adding a new company type called a FlexCorp which essentially works like a GmbH, but you can give out up to 25% of non-voting shares to employees in a simplified process. I don't know how attractive that is, it sounds dumb to me because I don't understand why they can't be normal shares and your company will be named Example FlexCorp instead if Example GmbH. (Doesn't sound shady at all.)

On the funding side, we have the Austria Wirtschaftsfond, which provides angel-level funding on some level, but the amounts are relatively low and there are restrictions what the money can be spent on. (E.g. only employees, which shareholder-CEOs are not in all circumstances, etc.) Basically, it's tricky and a jungle to navigate. I have never done a US startup, but from what I saw it seemed less intricate.

On the flipside, my wife and I have a GmbH and since we got over the initial unknowns, it seem relatively straight forward to actually run the company on a day-to-day basis, provided one actually makes money.

Most irritating thing the Amex did recently to me is to call me from a random number and then proceeded to ask me for my personal details like date of birth etc for "verification purposes". I promptly refused to provide any details as I have no way to authenticate them and cut the call. They are basically educating their customers to become vulnerable to fraudsters and I told them as much. But the call center person is the wrong person to hear that from me.
Well, since agriculture fixed people in the same plot of land for their whole lives, sure. But before that there was nomadism. People moved from one area to another frequently. I think a lot of learning was necessary to map and adjust to new territories. So, I'm not so sure potential maladaptative learning explains everything.

> childcare needs to give parents an actual break.

In my experience caring for your small children is really demanding work. On the one hand you need to be focused on the situation in order to protect the children and on the other hand there is not much going on for entertaining yourself.

Creative or focused deep work where you get a positive feeling of accomplishment also counts as a break from childcare for me. So a break does not necessarily mean not working. But I believe there are a lot of demanding jobs that are not a break from childcare.

The other aspect I can relate to is the fact that in hunter-gatherer communities many different caregivers support each other. Every summer we travel in the mountains with 3-4 other families and their kids. Last year there where 12 kids under the age of 8. Sounds very stressful but actually it was really smooth. Having multiple parents available all the time allowed everyone to take a real break once in a while. And also the children enjoyed having multiple different adults they could interact with apart from their parents.

So I really think this concept works, but only if you all live under the same roof. Which in practice is only possible during holidays.
