You could alternately install alternate SSH clients (non-OpenSSH) for this purpose.

$ rpm -qi putty | tail -1
Putty is a SSH, Telnet & Rlogin client - this time for Linux.

$ rpm -qi dropbear | tail -2
Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. It's particularly useful
for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers.

The focus for SSH is safety. These others shift more to broad compatibility; I do wish they would throw warnings for weak ciphers.
You're awful judgey of someone you've never met.

If the problem is "we hired every warm body in a 50 mile radius, turns out a lot of 'em aren't really qualified", I don't see how bringing in even garden variety decent people from elsewhere doesn't bring the average up.
That happened to me. AMD stock certificate from 2006 received at about $10. They accepted it, were willing to transfer it into my account. Unfortunately, I had moved country and the annual meeting messages were returned to Computershare as RTS. They declared me (and my stock certificates lost) and hence eschewed them to the state of Delaware. Where they were dutifully sold and state lost property had the results of the sale. The eschewment happened in 2015 when the stock was about $5.

When I realized I had them, and tried to deposit them in etrade, it all went well, except the certificates were returned "no longer valid eschewed to the state of delaware".

The bummer is that the stock was running at about $80 then, and is running at around $150 now.

sigh.

So they will be valid, but there will paths that will "expire them".
This is great context and I really appreciate it. I honestly thought of Discord as being super stable even in 2020; interesting to hear things felt rickety, internally.

My sense is that Discord was exploring a lot of different ideas for monetization all at once, and that maybe the sprawl of new projects got unwieldy, esp. in 2022-23; how accurate would you say that is?
U.S is a lot more dynamic economy than Japan

Economy not responding with inflation due to money printing is bad
“ So the look of it is that the tax code is favoring companies that are established and survive, which doesn’t seem like so bad of a thing.”

To me that is quite a flippant statement; barriers to entrepreneurship have significant effect of the dynamism of an economy and it’s not evident to me that it’s wise to so heavily favor big incumbents and penalize less mature businesses
I often also get a complete example from ChatGPT when the question calls for it, it's just usually an incorrect complete example.
I have been fighting these battles for much of the last ten years and this article fails to explain a dynamic that is happening here, at least where I am (california).

I'll give my most recent thing that ended up in collections (which you can easily ignore, it doesn't affect your credit at all in some states). I had a pretty intensive surgery. I had a copay, which was shown to me before the surgery. I signed it, paid, think everything is good.

However, in the background, which happens often, the insurance company and the hospital/doctor are still haggling about who owes what. Eventually they can't come to a decision, and the hospital punts it to the patient or collections. Even better - say you do pay this “surprise” bill. Sometimes the insurer eventually pays up. Guess what happens then? Does the doctor/hospital notify you then that you overpaid?
Very rarely. For me it was a $800 bill on top of the thousands I already paid for anasthesia (and some other stuff).

Hospitals and insurers are putting patients in the middle of their disputes and it rarely ends up well for the patient. Hospitals acting like they're somehow the victim here is extremely rich from my perspective, they are at least half of the entire problem.

I recommend letting them go to collections and then disputing it there. Lots of times these collections agencies use shady practices that give you some good leverage, or it's a double billing scenario like I described above.
I...don't know what I was expecting...
I'm conflicted about contributing to this repo. My Youtube experience is SO MUCH BETTER because of the filters I use on Ublock Origin, and I really fear that by sharing it publicly, I'll be helping the google salary slaves do the dirty job of making it impossible for me to block their algo and keep seeing only what I want to see over there. It's a cat and mouse game and we are the mouse, unfortunately.
First, you can do this (if you have the appropriate skills). I know people who grew up off the grid, cabins built by the family, well water, outhouses, no electricity. There are whole Amish communities and communes if you want to still be around people. However, a lot of this nostalgia for a pre-technological time ignores the realities of a world without antibiotics, painkillers, modern dentistry, indoor plumbing, hot showers. It ignores infant mortality and women regularly dying in childbirth. In the modern world you can still choose to live off the grid while taking advantage of most of these things, but not if everyone does.
Blocking is a common concept in packet switched networks; for example, a packet switch with a full crossover can be called "non-blocking". A switch is either going to queue or discard packets, and at the rates we're discussing, there is not enough buffer space so typically if a switch gets overloaded it's going to drop low priority packets. Obviously many things have changed, there are ethernet pause frames and admission control and SDN management of routes, but we still very much use the term "blocking" in packet switched networks.

What google decided long ago is that for their traffic patterns, it makes the most sense to adopt clos-like topologies (with packet switching in most cases), and not attempt to make a fully non-blocking single crossbar switch (it's too expensive for the port counts). More hops, but no blocking.

Scaling that got very difficult and so now many systems at Google use physical mirrors to establish circuit-like paths for packet-like flows.

GCP is effectively an application that runs on top of google's infrastructure (I believe you already worked there and are likely to know how it works) that adds all sorts of extra details to the networking stack. For some time the network as a user-space Java application that had no end of performance problems.
When renting Tesla's from Hertz its advertised as a guaranteed model.
On what platform did development take place?
This seems lovely, I have custom rules for a few things like this in uBlock already (blocking shorts and google contextual snippets) but having it all in one place with a dedicated tool seems great.
It feels like Amazon has been a willing participant when it comes to seedy vendors flooding their marketplace with crap for a while now.

Bitburners does a pretty good job. Its an idle game with fairly limited "OS" emulation, but the best solutions require real thought and programming knowledge.

You'll be writing scripts to scan the net for open ports, automatically "hack" into them, then globally balance allocate memory between all of them according to certain parameters to make the hack the most "profitable". You'll be writing elementary socket communications, building scripts to feed analytics back to your home PC, even alogirthmic trading in a fake stock market. I had fun with it.
The natural order of things is if Bill has a billion dollars and I want that billion dollars I kill him and steal it. What we have is supposed to be an improvement on that, but if most people are starting to feel differently, those holding the money should be worried.
This would be an excellent tool for sales people who sell in person. The ability to feed that data back into a sales trainer similar to Gong would be very useful.

Is it possible to adjust the "mode" of feedback?

Example: Let's say I'm negotiating with people all day over car deals. Can I select "masterful negotiator coach" as the AI to analyze the conversation and provide contextual feedback over the actual conversation?

Then later on I can switch the coach over to something else, let's say it was an accountability conversation with an employee. I'd switch it over to the "Jack Welch Emobiment coach" to hear how Jack Welch would have responded to this, etc

Something like that would be great because I could integrate that directly into my current software product as it relates to sales.

Plenty of CRMs would probably want integrations - excellent symbiotic relationship there.
if there are 3 million simple objects like title, url, thumbnail url, why would be faster to send the request, to the filtering in the backed db and then send the response back? I suspect that an Array.filter would be as fast with a db search + the request overhead.

I just wish that the DOM would have some built in List,Table, Grid components, like you have in Qt,.Net WPF or Flex4 . Today we just have divs in divs in divs.
There are so many stories of cops abusing tracking tools to stalk exes, my money would be on that rather than a "typo."
Wouldn't Google Colab then we closer to both "time shared" and "supercomputer"? Jupiter

notebooks are certainly interactive and Colab's purpose is to allow often low-powered clients to offload ML training/inference to a GNU-enabled server, so kind-of like time-shared systems of the old?

Yes, WalEx.

Recently added the concepts of Destinations - where you can just configure it to send database change events to an Elixir module, webhook or EventRelay (the later two don't require Elixir know-how).

I think absolutes like "it sucks" are rather unhelpful when you need to choose something anyway, so it's not like doing nothing is an option. What would help is a clear alternative and how it does better one certain metrics while satisfying requirements. Yes scale does seem to be a constraint for big companies using this process, among other requirements making the whole leetcode process appealing. It's not only about costs.
> Nobody in their right mind thinks you can change major versions without some elbow grease in any other language.

I have an old project that I didn't touch in more than 5 years. Last week, I decided to give it another spin, and booked the entire afternoon to deal with any issues that may arise from the update process.

It went from Python 3.6 to 3.11, and from Django 2.2 to 4.2. Postgres jumped from 11 to 16! There were 10 other libraries (PIL, ...) that I had to update too.

The only special procedure that I had to do was dumping data from the old database and restoring it from the new one, as recommended by PG when doing major-point updates. (And adding a single line to Django's `settings.py` for the new `CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS`.)

When I typed `docker compose up` on my terminal, the app just run smoothly without as single problem. I even had to check that I didn't invoke the old configuration by mistake.

All in all, the process took me less than 15 minutes.
Our Database Came from the Future
Yeah I actually wish they offered a Tesla with about 1/3rd of the power and better range / smaller battery
With the JIT compiler, I'm not sure any optimisations from the type information will be significantly worth it. But I'm not an expert on this topic.
If you move, are you upset your neighbors don't travel with you? I sincerely don't understand the point you were making. Obviously having a network of family and friends matters too, but your children will grow up and leave. Your friends might leave too. Do you think those relations were a waste of time as well.

Most things are ephemeral in a human lifetime. That's why it's better to appreciate what you have now, in the moment; than lamenting something in the past.
They are produced on an older processing node than the AM5 lineup. So if AMD switched to only produce AM5 CPUs and Radeon 7000 graphics chips, the old factories would lack something worthwhile to produce. Therefore AMD can negotiate much lower rates for using those older facilities, making it viable to continue production as long as the products sell. There aren't any truly new chips, it is just new binning and marketing of the old models.
>But nothing in your quotes shows anything especially incompetent

They did not care about data integrity and schema migration. It's probably the most incompetent thing one can do when working with data in such a system.

That's why we define database schemas, or write protobuf schemas, or avro schemas, and parse JSON data in the frontend with zod.

As a rule of thumb you don't even just change the datatype of a field and hope it works. You introduce a new field and migrate over the course step by step from the old field to the new field, i.e. you write the data into two fields, and read the data from the new field or fallback to the old field.

Actually their use of the Riposte message system in 1999 was not that different in what we use today in many cloud-based systems with microservices.
> a bunch of traits that simply can’t be tested

I think there's a lot more that could be tested that what current implementation-centric interviews measure. At my company for example, I feel like we've gotten a lot of use out of our debugging interviews.
> Interesting to see what Wall Street rewards.

It seems to be rewarding Apple? They also had a similar market cap two years ago. Microsoft has seen growth in revenue and net income, Apple has not. Going back to pre-covid times the picture is similar: better financial results for Microsoft but still head-to-head with Apple in market cap.
Can it tell apart different voices in a convo? Will it remember those voices later? I.e. if I spoke with my colleague last week and we have a follow up convo a few days later, can I ask Sama and it would understand context from both convos + understand they are related?
It's supposed to be. They offer a competing service, after all.
Like you said, wind takes decades to get ROI. Solar though, at least the right kind of solar project is cheaper than even coal: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jan/30/us-coal-more.... It's crazy how the LCOE for solar has dropped like a stone over the last decade.

At least they called you. I traveled a lot this last fall and pretty much always reserved a hybrid with Avis because I was going to drive long distances. What I actually got at the counter most of the time was "let me see if we have any hybrids available" followed by receiving some random car that was not, in fact, a hybrid (and often as far as you can get from a fuel-efficient hybrid, a regular gas SUV).
> Getting laid off in your 40s is a death sentence.

That's just not true. In my mid (ugh, getting to be late) 50s and I've been laid off in most of the downturns since the dot-com bust, including this recent one. Getting a new job at comparable compensation has rarely been a big problem. I suppose if you let your skills get rusty or work on a VERY specialized tech stack and don't want to do something else, then sure, you'll have problems.

But in this market, I'd rather be a grizzled veteran with demonstrable skills in a variety of areas than a new grad.

It was the United Arab Emirates.

The odds of dying in a traffic accident in that country are considerably higher than in the United States, and much higher than in other developed countries (sorry USA, you suck at road safety, but not as much as the UAE does)[1].

While I don't have country-specific statistics to hand, the odds of dying riding a motorcycle are much, much higher than in a car. One estimate is that you are around 27 times more likely to die per distance driven/ridden [2].

Even so, in an absolute sense, the odds of dying on a typical motorcycle commute are low. My guess is that your odds of meeting foul play shortly after screwing with the Iranian nuclear program are likely higher than dying in a random traffic accident. But coincidences do occur.

It's much more likely that they just pinned this story on some guy who died in a motorcycling accident.

The point of killing someone over some wrong they did you is publicizing it after the fact. If you don't take credit for it, it doesn't have any deterrent power.

Israel has a parliamentary system, no? It seems appropriate to blame the parties that forms the coalition for the behavior of the state, and there's certainly no shortage of illiberal actions Israel has done against their own citizens in the last three months to point to.

Regardless, our (USA) parties are in fact the biggest blockers to our functioning correctly as a liberal democracy. One is desperate for votes from anyone, the other party is terrified to pass anything or imagine any kind of future that isn't a slightly less grim version of what the republicans offer. Just by our ability to come to a consensus and do things as a country, we seem to have ground to a complete halt. So yea, people should be a lot more critical of whether or not we're actually espousing the democratic ideals we claim.

He was a well known engineer that had worked in Dubai for 12 years in the transport industry and had an Iranian wife. He was well known as an engineer at the forefront of the rapid development of major projects in the Gulf region.

A regional paper even published his obituary in 2009:

https://www.thenationalnews.com/uae/engineer-who-helped-buil...

Excerpt:

Erik van Sabben, a Dubai-based engineer whose expertise in the heavy lifting and transport industry placed him at the forefront of the rapid development in the Gulf over the past decade, has died. A keen motorcycle rider, he was killed in an accident near Dhaid on Jan 16, just two weeks short of his 37th birthday. Born in Vlissingen, The Netherlands, Mr van Sabben had lived in the Gulf on and off for 12 years. While an undergraduate, he worked as a trainee for Mammoet Gulf in Dubai, a specialist heavy lifting company, which he joined after graduating. He spent the next decade in Dubai, and briefly, Abu Dhabi.

I don't necessarily love it as a characterization because Americans also have a love of huge refrigerators and couches and washing machines but no one says we have a refrigerator culture (even though it may be true). When you think about the number of boring base-level Corollas that get sold, it's hard to think of it as an identity thing.

I think a fairer description would be that American culture values space, personal property ownership, and independence. Car ownership is a means to an end.
Almost certainly, assuming the growth of solar occurs as stated. The real tipping point is the fuel-only operating cost of a given plant, which is a function of the plant's efficiency and the price of its fuel.

The emission loophole is part of the reason but the main one, I believe, is that the US vehicle manufacturers have used a boat load of advertising and other methods to convince people, over the last 60 years, to buy trucks and then SUVs due to the 25% "Chicken Tax"[1] that was imposed on truck imports starting in 1964. Trucks were some much more profitable because they did not need to compete with imports. Ford recently has stopped selling all cars but the Mustang in the US.

This tax remains in effect to this day with that trade war a distant memory.
