Less then 5.

To be honest, few times happen so successful days, when I done 9 tasks, but this is extremely rare.

So I'm not limit my schedule, I just have 1-3 tasks strictly scheduled, and 5-10 things to do if have spare time, if something go wrong and strictly scheduled task cancelled, or if I have inspiration to do more.

Examples, what to do if something happen, I have usual todo list, what to buy in supermarket, to have store of food and consumables, like paper for 2-3 weeks.
Other good things - I have large todo list of interest papers, and books to read and to try.
The smartest people I know left tech.

No, this isn't sarcasm or a joke. I do wonder if there's some sort of inverse correlation between intelligence and ability to thrive under corporate bureaucracy.
I think Django's ORM is a product of its time, when limitations about the expressibility of the "active record" concept were not fully understood.

I like to describe it as Django's ORM will satisfy 80% of your needs immediately, 90% if you invest and sweat, 95% if you're quite knowledgeable in the underlying SQL. But there are still some rather common query shapes that are inexpressible or terribly awkward with Django's ORM.

SQLAlchemy on the other hand never tries to hide its complexity (although to be fair they've become much better at communicating it in 2.0). On Day 1 you'll know maybe 20% of what you need to. You might not even have a working application until the end of week 1. But at the end of, idk, month 6? You're a wizard.

The long-term value ceiling of SQLAlchemy/Alembic is higher than Django's, but Django compensates for it with their comparatively richer plugin ecosystem, so it's not so easy to compare the two.
The NYC report is interesting but also very problematic.

The justification of the minimum pay over NYC minimum wage is a mixture of reasonable (DoorDash not paying employee taxes, worker costs) and ... creative (like rolling in cost of living adjustments to minimum wage just because you can).

More importantly:

> First, the model assumes that, from 2023 to 2025, apps will respond to the minimum pay rate by increasing deliveries per hour worked from the current 1.63 to 2.50. This assumption is based on the Department’s identification, using the record-level data obtained from apps, of large differences between apps in the number of deliveries per hour.

Their "model" is making HUGE assumptions about the apps being able to "innovate" in NY, based on data coming from their own black-box reported numbers. And nearly all of calculations about how the pricing, cost to businesses, customer price sensitivity, and take-home pay of the workers is entirely based on very flimsy projections.

I have no problem if NY wants to level the playing field between employees and contractors so that apps have to pay fair. But they are taking things one step further just because they have the mandate to do so. And there's no way that the people setting policy based on these arbitrary numbers are ever going to be held accountable for them.

Yes, same scenario, but far fewer logins are successful. 3 orders of magnitude sounds right, but I don't know precise numbers. (Can others shed light?) Three orders of magnitude is a lot!
My answer is simple: don't. Use something far simpler and with fewer moving parts than Kubernetes, and something where crucial parts of the ecosystem required to make things even basically work are not outsourced to third party projects.

Nomad is a good solution.

The k-anonymity is such a clever trick, I remember being impressed by the simplicity and efficacy of it back when I read about it also.

I'd also like to call out the one who Troy says suggested him [1], Junade Ali who goes into more details about this in his post about it [2]

Not because Junade would have invented it (apparently that was Pierangela Samarati, Latanya Sweeney and Tore Dalenius. [3]) but because his blog post on it is a really great explainer of it using concepts software developers are familiar with.

"Something you know" means something in your head that other people can't access, and that is protected by the 5th amendment. The image of your face is not; it's something other people see every day. So it's not "something you know".
Kubernetes doesn't improve sufficiently to justify the broken compatibility anymore. Projects slow down and become mature. This isn't a bad thing.

> Don’t do this. Tend your garden. Do your upgrades and releases frequently, ensure that everything in your stack is well understood and don’t let any part of your stack ossify and “crust over”.

You can't see me, but I'm violently nodding in agreement. Faithfully adhering to these best practices isn't always possible, though; management gonna manage how they manage and now how your ops team wants them to manage.

> Upgrades (even breaking ones) are easier to handle when you do them early and often. If you let them pile up, and then have to upgrade all at once because something finally gave way, then you’re simply inflicting unnecessary pain on yourself.

How different could things be if k8s had a "you don't break userland!" policy akin to the way the Linux kernel operates?
Is there a better balance between new stuff replacing the old and never shipping new stuff that would make more cluster operators more comfortable with upgrades?
Exactly. You still haven't eliminated the human in the loop if you make an AI librarian that generates "insights". Thanks to hallucination and the need to be able to back what you're saying up with something reproducible, you'll still need a list of citations you may have to check up on yourself. To wit, a search engine suffices. One exception might be if you are willing to tolerate inconsistency (or even lies) and aren't planning to share the result, just privately consume it with the appropriate level of caution.

Update. It was a panorama: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqcYiDn6d1s
Let me put a counter point to the opening remark. We do not (just) inherently trust people to do the right thing. Law and order, refined and (somewhat, however faultily) applied over the course of decades have programmed us to not do the wrong thing (vs doing the right/ethical thing which cannot always be coded into the laws).
Law and order needs to catch up to the advancement in technology and specifically in AI for us to be able to trust all the models that will be running our lives in near future.
The problem I run into with family is if you collect it all together and call it trickle-down economics it's "obviously that won't work", but then they turn around and basically just keep repeating all the parts separately anyways. It's similar to the doublespeak I hear from those same people about how unions are a scam that are just out to screw everyone while also, all the people they know who are union retired 10 years before them with big nest eggs and they should have joined the union when they were young.
But rich people need engineered stone bench tops. Surely there's a way to get tradespeople to keep making them?
>The basic concept of food delivery existed long before tech and VC and was viable.

Can’t beat cash for appreciation money.
A "fraction" of 20 million is still a lot of salary runway though. They were paid out on 2.5 years worth of that 20 million dollar deal. Even if their deal's earn out was only million dollars a year for 20 years it would be 2.5 million. Of course no earn out period is that long so it's likely they were paid out much more than that.

"you can't sell a spy cam that looks like a towel hook" is sort of too broad and too specific to be a good law. what does "looks like a towel hook" actually mean? a law like this would end up having some unintended consequences, where bad actors use it for something like claiming all their competitors products look like towel hooks.

i think what's happening here is really the ideal solution: you can sell a camera that looks like anything, but if somebody uses the towel-hook spy cam that you sold for it's obvious intended purpose, you're liable for the damages.

I’m not sure if there are publicly available stats but my first guess is that there are more users migrating from Reddit, probably because they’re not happy with the demographic shift.
That is kinda tricky because

>Tech legal expert Eric Goldman wrote that a victory for the plaintiff could be considered "a dangerous ruling for the spy cam industry and for Amazon," because "the court’s analysis could indicate that all surreptitious hook cameras are categorically illegal to sell." That could prevent completely legal uses of cameras designed to look like clothes hooks, Goldman wrote, such as hypothetical in-home surveillance uses.

How creative the amazon team has to be when reviewing the products. Do they have a duty that using the products in ways the seller has not written could achieve those goals.
Personally I don't see non creepy uses for a bathroom towel camera. But in this case it is obvious that the one that must be sued is the person that used the camera. And suing amazon is obviously in bad faith and a money grab.
I think the reasonable assumption of serious security teams is that past some number of people with access, and absent phishing-proof authentication, the probability of a successful phishing attack approaches (and probably rapidly approaches) 1. You can dispute this, but security teams are going to disagree with you, they have the data, and your freedom/security spectrum doesn't mean anything at all to people making corporate access control decisions.

I get that you're not talking about corporate access control, but rather your feeling that you're downwind of those decisions as a consumer, because Google and Apple are embracing the findings of corporate security research. I don't know what to tell you about that. If a friend asked me what they should do to secure their online accounts, I'd tell them to make sure they were using Google Mail, and to make sure they had Passkeys enabled.
Pretty much. Its just that most people are too lazy to look through results and synthesize information themselves. Also it would be helpful if the LLM could identify outdated or conflicting information, but I don't know if that is within their capabilities.
The whole point is to not equate "password" with "touchid/faceid". The former is "something you know", and the latter are not. In the US, it's legal to get access to someone's finger or face. It's not legal to torture someone to reveal a thought.

You just posted it. 22% is widespread. If we are talking about people chanting slogan at a rally the 25% that support Israeli government obviously did not take part in it. So of those chanting it at a rally at the very least 30% literally mean it and up to half mostly mean it. It's also not far fetched that the more militant you are the more likely you to attend a rally in the first place. So those numbers get skewed higher. There is obvious correlation between how far left you and how likely you are to support Hamas. So in a place like UC Berkley support obviously scewes higher. But even if we ignore the scew if some university had student body where 9% supported KKK a lot and 13% supported it somewhat. And they had regular rallies with racist chants I would hope that this would be considered problematic by you and too wide spread to ignore.
> What’s funny is that the tip should come after the service is complete if it’s actually a tip for good service (otherwise how did you know what service you got?). But they’re clearly just trying to hide the true price.

This. I had a recent order with a "SkipTheDishes". It was a semi-big order, and I left the default tip in place, which was over $20 for a 5-10 minute drive. The driver did a few other deliveries on the way, so when I got my meal it was only vaguely warm. Certainly not worth $20, and enabled by the company as they have a mechanism for a driver to take multiple orders at once.

Truly horrible service is now standard.

It was never a sustainable business model to begin with.

It takes 10 minutes for a chef to make my meal, and 25 minutes for someone to come to the restaurant, pick it up, and drive it to my house.

The only way it works is if someone else's time is an order of magnitude less valuable than yours.

Not sure where you folks live but all the major ordering apps present in Toronto have been excellent in the suburbs. I was fully satisfied at least 9 out of 10 times.

> Nuclear bombs from the US were always under US control, even if positioned outside the US.

They really weren't, the nominal US control over them was always a figleaf to appease the requirements of Congress.

If you look into the history of US nuclear sharing you'll find that what these NATO countries wanted was independent nuclear capabilities in the event of an emergency. That's what they got in every way except formally on paper.

A relevant excerpt from "Command and Control" by Eric Schlosser:

> [...] Congressman Chet Holifield, the chairman of the joint committee, was amazed to find three ballistic missiles, carrying thermonuclear weapons, in the custody of a single American officer with a handgun. “All [the Italians] have to do is hit him on the head with a blackjack, and they have got his key,” Holifield said, during a closed-door committee hearing after the trip. The Jupiters were located near a forest, without any protective covering, and brightly illuminated at night. They would be sitting ducks for a sniper. “There were three Jupiters setting there in the open—all pointed toward the sky,” Holifield told the committee. “Over $300 million has been spent to set up that little show and it can be knocked out with 3 rifle bullets.” Foreign personnel weren’t supposed to enter the nuclear weapon igloos at NATO bases. But little had been done to stop them. A lone American soldier manned the entrance to the igloos, serving as a custodian of the weapons, not as an armed guard. Once again, security was provided by troops from the host nation, who also moved weapons in and out of the storage facilities. Senator Albert A. Gore, Sr., could hardly believe the arrangement: “Non-Americans with non-American vehicles are transporting nuclear weapons from place to place in foreign countries.”
I can't tell if you're spun up or not, but from the tone and choice of words, this doesn't seem like a friendly conversation any more. Take care, and I won't reply any further.
Yup. As soon as I read that they targeted Ashkenazi Jews, I realized this was just consumer reports, not actual genetic information.

You might consider it when you know you have small amounts of data.

Say you're sorting peoples' phone numbers - not sorting all the phone numbers of all the people in the system, but for each person, sorting that person's phone numbers. Well, how many phone numbers does each person have in the system? Three would be the upper limit for most people. Is bubble sort faster for n=3? Probably.

You could put a threshold - if n>20 (or some experimentally-determined number), use quicksort, else use bubble sort. You'd have to have enough instances of people with n>20 before it would even be worthwhile to make the check, though (unless it's worth it just as a sanity check/safety net).

Renewables only seem like an alternative if you ignore base load and grid stability issues. There are potential approaches to solving those problems (such as battery storage) but none have been proven to work economically at scale yet.
I've always despised it. I demand control over the timing of updates, and I allow only very few exceptions in any of what I consider my critical infrastructure.

It means I pass on buying or using a lot of modern hardware / software. It also means my PC won't fail the night before a big delivery deadline for a multimillion dollar project for a client (and yes, I also keep duplicate spare hardware and backups to mitigate against regular failure).

Features I actually want from Google Search:

* The ability to get results for the terms I actually searched for. Even adding quotes around specific terms hasn't worked reliably for years.

* Less clutter and junk on the results page. Some of the SERPs can be jarringly noisy and bad, especially on mobile.

* Less SEO spam in the results. The norm for any remotely monetizable search query is to get a page where every result is a long and terribly written article with the same handful of basic facts. Google seems to love automated or poorly written articles that copy from the same source as 100 similar sites.

Instead we get... whatever this stuff is.
Seems insane that people living in inner cities need to get food delivered. Unless there is a good reason you are handicapped etc. or maybe just had a baby. But for most people routine delivery when you can walk 5 minutes and phone ahead that order is fine.

All of the products I used to used that did this (like 1Password, YNAB, etc) now have their own cloud sync and it's better in every way. Yes, you pay for it but it's well worth the stability and speed IMHO.

Dropbox has fallen so far in my eyes over the past ~decade. It used to be rock solid file storage, a USB drive in the cloud, now it's so busy trying to be everything to everyone and failing at most things. The macOS is hot garbage, literally one of the worst pieces of software I've had to work with. It's buggy, doesn't give useful info, gets stuck syncing, and has alerts that you can't act on. My mom's laptop yells at her that some files might not be openable and she should upgrade to their new file provider API. Ok fine, let's do that, oh wait you can't because you have a personal and a business account, try again later. It's been this way for a while now (like a year+).

I have Maestral on my laptop but honestly I just need a tiny push to leave Dropbox completely after being a paying customer for over a decade.
