Fwiw, it was an investment while short staffed that paid dividends later on.

It sounds like in your case, like mine, it’s a cultural issue that you are trying to solve, not a technical one. A cultural issue of wanting to deploy and ship a product fast and not worry about the stuff that’s already been solved.

You can always do a POC and show the value of it to the stakeholders. What I did was picked a product that would greatly benefit from it and went through the entire migration process with product and got their buy in.
I love it when people parrot what they heard - what misinformation? Do you mean the Robert Kennedy stuff? I can have my own strong views that the vaccines were useful and still enjoy content - if you just consume what you hear and relay it of course you shouldn't be around "fake news and stupid theories". Saying that 99% of Rogans podcasts are not like this.

I think it's more like, 'if you want to deal with the crash in test instead of having to justify why it crashed in prod.'

I don't think we've been fans of "be rigorous in what you emit and permissive in what you accept" since IE6 showed us the error of our ways. "Be rigorous in your implementation of a permissive spec" is as far as we should go.

It's weird to me for "ease factor" to be an intrinsic property of a card/thing to learn at all. I study things like Chinese characters with Anki and it's not but just rote memorization, there are systems and structures of knowledge for each card's content to be integrated into. For Chinese characters (as with many other things) there's history, etymology, deconstruction into components, personal mnemonics and associations, literary context and references, etc., all of which affects how easy it is for me to learn any one card's content. Usually i do not initially know much for a given card, but other cards and external learning will make any given card easier over time than it initially was.

And the set of external factors for any card is not fixed; there's no "true ease factor" for a card, because the set of external factors i will probably encounter is not a fixed (determinism aside) property of a card. It depends on me and my changing state.

This is only true if the series of actions you take in the combo are fully deterministic. If the combo includes non-deterministic steps (usually anything related to deck shuffling) you can't use shortcuts and have to actually perform the steps.

I'm a sense, that makes my point. Why do they persist with models that don't represent reality despite knowing it? Eventually you must realise that adding epicycles isn't going to cut it, yet still the sage voices echo the standard dogma when economies are dragged into the doldrums by policy posed by useless models.

Bought into is not the same as believing.
For sure, with scale comes slow-downs and new problems, that’s just an organisational reality, totally get that.

I am slightly curious why an upgrade takes 2 weeks? At my current work, rolling out an upgrade (self managed clusters), rolling out an upgrade on the “happy path” is a fairly low-intensity task: we kick it off, nodes gracefully drain, upgrade and come back online. No intervention necessary. Unhappy path just requires another command to roll them back. Prod is the same, but happens slightly slower because there’s more nodes (and more independent prod clusters).

I think the most useful offline reference is various rope knots. Mostly because I'm not a prepper and they're one of the few old fashioned skills that doesn't seem to be any less useful now than 100 years ago. Knots aren't just still usable, they're still the common, generally preferred way.

Almost everything low tech is, for most people, something pretty cool, maybe even something we think we probably should learn, but not something that generally comes up in real life for most, like ropework seems to, at least for me.

> Not knowing what the "uncertainty interval" represents (is it, loosely speaking, an expectation about a mean/true value or about the distribution of unobserved values?) could be even more dangerous, in theory, than using no uncertainty interval at all.

And, from what I understand, this is what is happening in this article.

The person is providing an uncertainty interval for their mean estimator and not for future observations (i.e., the error bars reflect the uncertainty of the mean estimator, not the uncertainty over observations).

Like you said: before adding error bars, it probably makes sense to think a bit about what type of uncertainty those error bars are supposed to represent.

>I'd like to challenge you on what seems to be the main claim behind why Slauth is a necessary product: "the amount of money that is being spent on tooling to scan for IAM misconfigurations in the cloud.

The quote you use got me to further research the market and speak to users of those toolings. From speaking to the users it was evident that the amount of misconfigurations being deployed wasn't being reduced.

I imagine users of cloud scanning tools would also use a pro-active tool like Slauth or any other shift-left tool that would aim at preventing as opposed to reacting.
> After all, employees generate more money than they cost, that's the entire point of employees.

That is only true for profitable business and only true _on average_ across all employees. It isn't true for each employee individually.

Some employees are a lot more valuable at generating money than others. This isn't necessarily the employee's fault.

With layoffs and restructurings the business should be trying to improve that average profitability per employee.

Random pedagogical observation: this video does a phenomenal job at pausing for a second or two after providing you with something it’s asking you to wrap your head around. In the ed. biz, it’s called “wait time.” Processing time. A lot of videos today just charge through material or try to amuse or entertain you after hitting you with Big Facts, rather than giving you a second of just pure silence to process the new information being given to you.

> BTW, US per-capita healthcare cost is much, much higher than Norway's, and US life expectancy is much lower.

But that's the issue -- it's not a matter of allocating the money. The US is already spending it.

The question is, how do you make it more cost efficient? "Just do what Norway does" doesn't solve anything for two reasons.

The first is that it doesn't tell you if that's the right answer, only that what Norway is doing is better than the status quo in the US. But the status quo in the US is uniquely dysfunctional, so that's not a high bar. You still don't know if it's better to do what Norway does or what Singapore does (same life expectancy as Norway, much different system) or some third thing which could hypothetically be better than either of them.

The second is that it doesn't solve the political issue in the US, which is that all of the people making money from the status quo don't want it to change. It doesn't matter if the proposal is a public healthcare system or a market system with actual price transparency or something else entirely, until you can overcome the political inertia of the incumbent system.

And these feed into each other. Because it's obvious that the existing US system is inefficient, but it's not obvious which of the potentially more efficient systems to replace it with, so the people with different ideas fight against each other instead of fighting with each other against the status quo.

This has been trialled in schools here in Iceland, and from interviews and surveys it would seem the kids love not having their phone.

Reading some interview transcripts I remember them mentioning that the kids felt that since their whole social group was without a phone (everyone in the school had to leave their phones at home or in storage boxes) at the same time they did not feel like there was anything that they might be missing out on, and subsequently could rather relax and focus on face-to-face interactions instead.
> We're probably actually interested in something like an upper quantile for planning purposes.

True. But a conditional quantile is much harder to accurately estimate from data than a conditional expectation (particularly if you are talking about extreme quantiles).
Canada has a similar thing where incumbents have to open up their networks under some cost+markup algorithm.

It worked well for independent ISPs for a while.

But nowadays nobody questions it when that cost accounting went all Hollywood. Now incumbent’s subsidiaries run at a “loss” and sell never ending promo packages for less than they lease the lines out at. That’s just good competition, right? Nothing bad can happen.

Now most of the independent providers have been gobbled up by incumbents (sometimes selling service in other incumbents’ territory so we have the options of Satan-North, satan-west, satan-east and Satan-south). Yay?
That’s funny. Cue this.

I've had the same question and I don't have the answer, but what you're asking about might be referred to as the cosmological principle

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_principle

Seems like so far our observations are that the universe is pretty homogeneous. Cosmological principle being the default position, my best understanding is that it's just a lack of evidence otherwise:

> The End of Greatness is an observational scale discovered at roughly 100 Mpc (roughly 300 million light-years) where the lumpiness seen in the large-scale structure of the universe is homogenized and isotropized in accordance with the Cosmological Principle. At this scale, no pseudo-random fractalness is apparent.

Reddit is going for an IPO soonish and they're trying to bump up their user numbers, so they're trying to get a different audience to their core 18-35 Anglosphere white male tech workers that were probably 90% of the userbase 10-15 years ago. To do that they're boosting subs for things like celebrity gossip, the royals, things focused on regions like India or the Philippines. Have a look at the top growing subreddits and there'll be a lot of those topics, and compare what the front page looked like a year or two ago to now, it's probably 25% now vs nothing at all back then.

> The last 3 times the US armed forces went into combat for a campaign without air superiority were:

The Philippines 1942 (largest surrender of US forces outside of the US Civil War)

Guadalcanal 1942-1943, (First months of the battle, US forces dont have air supremacy and have to hold on)

Battle of the Bulge, December 1944, (first few days, US has no air supremacy because of weather, Much of the 106th division surrenders, second largest surrender of US forces outside of the Civil War).

The US has fought with overwhelming air superiority in every campaign since, and yet we are supposed to believe that Ukraine is to blame for failing to breakthrough a well-defended defensive line with equipment they had just been given?
Bought wasn’t correct in that context as they were always free to the community and consumer. I agree with hare brained whole heartedly.
Yes, AM186EM was doubleplus good. I used it in an early interface between a Kodak DC-20 camera (early digital) and IrDA at high-speed (1 Mb/s in those days).

Also liked the V20/V30 too, built a PC card comm controller with those. You are correct, it was normal to use MS-DOS compilers, although I did have to get a special-purpose debugger (code; interface was uart) for the '186.

With those kinds of products, it's 'annoying' that Intel sort of gave away the embedded space.

(agree: 8051 is high up there in the 'microcontroller' space.)

Except Microsoft recently decided, even being a C++ powerhouse, that all Azure systems programming that would have been done in C++ in the past, will be done in Rust from now on.

The issue with Modern C++, is that we are already in a Post-Modern C++ phase, and plenty of people keep writing classical C with Classes instead.

Depends on a jail. Some are more like resorts/rehabs compared to others. US jails for 6-month crimes aren’t particularly bad, afaiu. Personally I’d take around $200k too for a US jail, assuming I have nothing to do for half a year and there will be no social/legal consequences that matter.

His point is that academic self proclaimed "misinformation experts" don't care about misinformation, only ideological warfare. They are basically just academically sponsored left wing political activists pretending to be neutral scientific researchers.

This problem is not US centric. Every western country has developed these people like a rash. Universities are overflowing with left wing radicals who spend their time on activism instead of research, the only thing that's new is the tactic of claiming to be fact checkers. It's really hard to feel sorry for the firing of someone who should never have had a job in the first place.
> The thing I hate about "advice" like this is that it assumes that everyone likes the same things and feels the same way

It's so ironic that at the end you gave an advice:

> I suggest that the next time you watch a shakey-cam action movie, you try turning it on too!

Are you assuming that everyone likes the same things you like? I guess not. The same for the article—it doesn't assume that.

No advice fits everyone, but good advice fits many people. And I'd argue that the article's advice fits many, if not most, people.

TV is probably the only screen many people have that has motion interpolation on by default. They watch movies on theaters, PC monitors, laptops, tablets, and phones probably more than on TVs.

Many people are already used to what movies "look like." Non-tech-savvy ones might not know what "FPS" means, but they would likely be able to notice that watching movies on their phone feels different from on a TV with the default setting. The article's suggestion to disable motion interpolation on TVs makes the watching experience more consistent across all screens.
You are right. Node uses libuv's thread pool for calls to blocking system calls or high latency libc functions such as getaddrinfo.

TLDR; Optane didn't work because Intel overestimated how fast and easy market acceptance would be and how valuable a monopoly of a new tech would be. As a result the failed at rule 1 of memory, keep the fabs full. Cost were high, so demand was low and it let to a death spiral. By the time they realized it (if they ever did), contract terms and technical decisions left them no options to pull up.
