>"Get out of your own way" means (in this book) that not showing or communicating your worth or value will leave you behind peers who do go out of their way to show their worth and value. I.e., If you keep your head down and just do good work, you won't get noticed.

My last job, I was out of the office the vast majority of the time. I was working 50-60 hour weeks.

There wasnt enough time to sell myself to my boss. I did work out of the office with sales guys and the ceo quite often so I did sell to them. They loved me.

I would get back into the office and it was like everyone was caught up in a battle with each other. I tried my best to stay out of it, but you get drawn into that shit so quickly.

Specifically, there was a senior sysadmin who knew nothing about networking at war with the network admin. I was the only other network admin, so naturally I get drawn into it. So I would help out there to help him avoid that conflict. Then on multiple occasions I did the network work, but the other network admin thought the sysadmin did and started saying how bad of a job he did. But it was me...

Then the dreadful day where I was booked 4-6 weeks in advanced and there was work needed to be done. So they brought this other network admin in on my clients. Totally fine with me to have less on my plate. But then I get a phone call from my client telling me the network admin badmouthed me the entire time he was there. I got that recorded, provided it to HR. HR then said they cant just fire him because then I'd be the last network admin and im overloaded with work. They then let me in on something I shouldn't know. He also has another fireable offence being hateful toward a lesbian peer. She was awesome, no idea why he had a fued with her.

So I left the harassment complaint with HR. But like 3 days later my boss who rarely speaks with me comes into my office to tell me that the other network admin went through my tickets and found many problems. I stopped him there, i told him that that other network admin is harassing me, that i'm making it official now and he has to do something about it.

The next morning I got fired.
I am not even sure how that would work, since the device does not have an internet access.

If it can act as Wi-Fi host it can most likely connect to other clients as well. It's pretty common to run small configuration page hosted on device that let's you enter your main Wi-Fi credentials. All you need to do is change wpa_supplicant setting in /etc/.

I love the concept, but where I live there are too many trees....
The entire website elaborates why. Since you quoted from the page, you must have seen that that is not the only sentence on the page AND that it links to further pages!
This is is for me. I don't put on a record when I want to work out or drive in the car or hear some ear worm, but I do when I want to create a comfortable, relaxing environment. The lower (than FLAC through nice headphones) fidelity, the soft hum of the turn table, the physical act of choosing and placing a record on a turn table that hasn't changed since it was built 50+ years ago... It's a mechanical thing that requires care and maintenance (though not too much of either), and that brings me joy.

It's a stark contrast to mousing/thumbing around on a bright screen.
Does it have Android Auto...

Because if it does that is all I need. Something GM is taking away
Except this article has taught you nothing about Datalog. You’d have learned more from Wikipedia.

It is interesting to know I’m “entitled” for wanting people to provide accurate information online, rather than misinforming and confusing people.
In the RAV’s defence, their resale value is second to none. I can currently sell my Rav 2018 for about as much as I paid for it 5 years ago.
This depends on the product. Sometimes self-hosting is not just a matter of starting some Docker containers, but takes work and resources to scale and maintain properly. It might not even be a matter of the OSS version lacking features, but about the nature of the product itself.

For example, you can self-host WordPress if you want, and it's a perfectly capable product. But if you want to outsource the complexities around it, scale it easily, properly secure it, etc., it's worth considering using wordpress.com instead.
I have not analyzed the full potentials and benefits of Diversion but I would not agree with the statements you made about the Git. I think you should not focus on Git in your pitch.

>>it was built for a very different world in 2005 (slow networks, much smaller projects, no cloud)

Slow network: why is this a negative thing? If something is designed for a slow network then it should perform well in a fast network.

Mush small project: I do not agree. I can say that it was not designed for very very large projects initially. But many improvements were made later. When Micorosoft adopted Git for Windows, they faced this problem and solved it. Please look at this https://devblogs.microsoft.com/bharry/the-largest-git-repo-o...

No cloud: Again I would not agree. Git is distributed so should work perfectly for the cloud. I am not able to understand what is the issue of Git in the cloud environment.

>>In our previous startup, a data scientist accidentally destroyed a month’s work of his team by using the wrong Git command

This is mostly a configuration issue. I guess this was done by a force push command. IFAIK, you can disable force push by configuration.

ASD is the disorder, but being autistic in itself is just a type of neurodivergence (a neurotype). I do not know anyone who is autistic without also counting for ASD, but it is an important distinction.
I think many companies probably don't like to be open source because

- they like the idea of "security through obscurity". Open source means more work patching found vulnerabilities, so they rather not publish their code and instead tick check-lists for compliance and do blackbox pentests which makes them look secure.

- like to do marketing that exaggerates the innovation of their product. That's difficult to do if everyone can see the code.
> Subscription services are a lot cheaper for most people than renting or buying individual titles

> It's not just Ubi, EA, Microsoft, Playstation all do it, along with Google and Apple on mobile

These two sentences are not compatible. Companies do not choose to push business models that make them less money from the average customer.

> There are more games coming out every day than a person can consume. It's not the 90s anymore, no reason to clutch on to treasured old titles when a similar game will be out in a few months anyway.

Whith all due respect, go fuck yourself. Games like kinds of art are not fungible.
Unfortunately I formed this opinion by reading other people’s code.

I wish I could add a sarcasm marker but I see chunks of dumb code inserted in public repos, NPM, etc all the time.

I can only hope that my bank’s phone app has been subject to reasonable code review.
You haven’t seen as many of these completely misinformed implementations claiming to be Datalog when they really aren’t.
That's very interesting. Mortgage rates dropped without a corresponding drop of the fed rate.

In Australia the big lenders are in lock step with the reserve bank on rate increases, and lag behind on rate decreases.
Could we please have a comment about why this is an X11 WM rather than a Wayland compositor? Technical issues or a stylistic choice?
Lovely, mirrors my feelings very closely, except I never took the time to write things down and have to frustratingly relearn every time I use R.

Still love it though.

And Hadley Wickham has to be the most productive and masochistic programmer on earth! He seems to be the only one keeping everything together...
How the... I think you need to visit an optometrician.
The article is an excerpt from a book published in 2024, even if its subject is history.

So a tag with an old date would not be appropriate.

Git LFS solves the problem if you need to have occasional large files in your repo. It doesn't work great though when you have a lot of them or when they're an integral part of your product, because it's slow and introduces devops problems (e.g. you can bomb your repo by committing from a clone without Git LFS installed). Companies that have many large files to manage rarely use it because of this.
What he is saying is that LLM’s released into the wild to train can anonymously steal from his code to improve their own utility outside of licensing boundaries.
Ten years ago my definition of AGI was that it can learn and improve itself across a wide range of unrelated problems.

These days people seem to define if more as artificial super intelligence.

Except this isn’t Datalog. It’s just a poor quality implementation of relational algebra. This article did not actually teach you anything about Datalog, just continued to propagate misinformation.
Domains are a rare and expensive resource, that also happens to get hijacked by spammers all the time when somebody forgets to pay their bills. It's not even possible to buy a domain permanently. Meanwhile if you stick to just a hostname portion of a domain, you at the whim of whoever owns the domain, which is exactly the problem that has plagued the Internet for all its existence.

We should just stick to public keys and forget about the domain name system if we ever want to actually improve the situations instead of just reinventing Twitter and Facebook by another name. It's endlessly frustrating how long public keys have been around and how little use they still get. Finger crossed that Nostr gets some traction, since that so far sounds like the most sensible approach towards a social network that is under the controls of the users themselves and nobody else.
Assume the existence of a large scale Star Trek Replicator that can almost instantly create anything.

There are only two possibilities that result:

1) We now live in a post-scarcity society where everyone self-actualizes and no one wants for anything.

2) We now live in a society where the small % of the population that owns the Replicators self-actualizes and wants for nothing while the remaining 99.9% of the population can f** off and die.
Yes, I work for XWiki [1] which works exactly like this. It's been running since 2005. Don't expect FAANG salaries, the company is small and doesn't have investors, but the salaries are decent and the working conditions are great.

To my knowledge we don't have any competitor that takes XWiki and provides support and/or consultancy. I don't think it would be possible to freeride on our product because it would require expertise they would only have if they contributed to the project and it also requires brand recognition. We are of course the reference, people trust us because we are the main developers.

Many features have also been sponsored by customers so we do receive money to develop big parts of the product itself.

Nice. I make music and use git for my files, but often hit the usual space limitations and I hate dealing with git-lfs. I think there's a big use case for Diversion and music/video production.
> the .net debugger infrastructure is not open source

This is vsdbg (which comes with Visual Studio 2022 and the Microsoft-provided binary of VS Code).

There are alternatives like OmniSharp[1], the debugger shipped with JetBrains Rider, and Samsung's netcoredbg[2].

As a first language, I would teach python or javascript with java, C#, C, C++ as strong contenders depending on what they study, and possibly R or MATLAB is there is a very specific and good reason to do so
Ah, that explains why I thought I'd seen this before.
That fair, I had exponential growth of knowledge in the bingo cards for AGI as well.
Not sure what waa meant but what comes to mind to me who has dabbled in embedded is that in C it’s painfully clear how long “objects” live and when you tear them down and how. In C++ stuff can easily “happen” at an inopportune moment.

Why do dogs wag their tails? Humans liked the rhythm, study suggests
Sure; lots of cruft, I wouldn't disagree. But it is still strong and super fast when "prototyping" but only insofar you are doing floating point computations. Otherwise, Python is the choice for me when doing "data science" (for lack of a better word).

It's not a loss if they're still net positive from their unrealized gains. It's basically the home ownershipt version of "I know what I've got" but they in fact don't.

China fact of the day: https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2023/09/ch...

Notice how this hockey stick growth started shortly after February 2022, i.e. is a direct result of Western sanctions on Russia: https://x.com/brad_setser/status/1670842577862508556?s=46

edit: Chinese customs data shows during the first 11 months of 2023, China's vehicle shipments to Russia soared 545% from a year ago, to 840,000 units, making it China's fastest-growing market. New energy vehicles (NEVs), such as hybrids and electric vehicles (EVs), were also fueling the record production and exports”.

Still, it's their turn to prove themselves - buying a car with no service network, no spare parts infrastructure, and no proven track record, and no knowledge on resale value is errand I'd let others go through before me, Chinese car or not.

Especially since EVs are not cheap and I'm planning to keep them for a while.
I didn’t say this was written by generative AI. I just wondered if people are more willing to accept and forgive completely wrong information because of it.
> Some of us (myself included) even consider licenses like the AGPL to be nonfree.

I was with you up until this point.
It's not about the resolution, it's about the sound they make as the tube powers up, and the smell, and the slight whistle in operation. They're also have excellent refresh rate and add no latency to the incoming signal.

I still have a CRT for my SNES. It's not in the best of shape (bit of burn-in from a previous owner), but it makes me happy every time it turns on.
Inflation is coming down, Fed is signaling they would cut without a recession in order to hold "real rates" as inflation drops, etc.

Mostly a discussion as how many Fed cuts we see in 2024 now, not whether they will.
This looks to resolve a lot of pain points that are bought up by my team every week.
Great read. Thx for that!
Pretty important feature for all people flying in Russia nowadays. People there only trust Embraer Aircrafts, because all other aircrafts can‘t be maintained properly due to sanctions.
Sure, but as I mentioned it was exactly the same with buying a Tesla... that didn't stop them despite the high price.
All data is encrypted in-transit and at-rest, as per the industry standard. End-to-end encryption is an interesting feature with obvious extended privacy benefits on one hand, that could prevent a system from providing other features on the other hand. Depending on the requirement for end-to-end encryption, in some instances a custom NDA can be signed to mitigate a specific concern. It's a feature we haven't seen much demand for, but if that changes we may prioritize it higher on the road map. Would you mind sharing your use case or concern?
A significant portion of taxi fares go to the driver, as opposed to the maintenance of cars. There are other marginal benefits such as making the driver's seat available, eliminating the driver's commute and as well as the risk of criminal driver behaviour, that probably offsets some of the drawbacks of having one fewer human being dealing with rare, complex non-driving situations such as a pregnant woman having to give birth in the car.

The economic benefit is significant to companies building self-driving cars, good enough to pursue if the tech is within reach. But to your point it's indeed much less of an improvement compared to various historical automation technologies that create >10x incremental efficiency gains.
I had one HD CRT. I don't recall the brand. It was definitely an opportunity for a hand cart and a helper...
Wait a few years, PRC investing big in indigenous auto components, cost of electronics/sensors is easy to value engineer and scale. I think if you're prodominantly operating in urban enviros, especially one that's bike friendly (pedestrian centred), some extra safety is worthwhile investment. Auto parking seems like a nice feature for city driving, having lots of sensors provide overlapping features and there's more to gain than lose. Chinese cars sector are going to make those standard in cheap cars and hopefully convince everyone else to as well.
I honestly don't get why more people don't just use the AGPL.

Mastodon et al prove it works.
is openai a non-profit?
Second China fact of the day: nobody wants to sit in a Chinese car, not even the Chinese themselves.

It isn't yellow paint being squeezed out of a tube.

The handle isn't the paint. The axe-head isn't the tube.

The number of people in the comments still speculating and believing in the "yellow paint" theory would be funny, if it weren't so sad.

It's literally in the following obviously incorrect and therefore not accepted answer on the StackExchange thread.

Or maybe you're just temporarily delirious and can't see that the picture is utterly obviously of an an axe. Or you're just pretending to, for "lulz".
One of the best ways to assess the quality of a Primer audience is by using match rate in platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Google.

In Google ads manager, go to the audience manager tab in your shared library. Now there are two options here. You can either go to ‘modify columns’ and choose match rate or just open up an individual audience where Google will display the match rate as well as the size for the audience across Google's various properties.

Same with LinkedIn. Navigate to the audiences tab in the plan section, open up an individual audience and check out the audience count and the match rate on LinkedIn as well.

Facebook will not surface your custom audience size or match rate.

Here at Primer we use something like reach rate as a proxy for match rate. Using match rate is one of the best ways to assess the initial quality of a Primer audience.

Thomas Keneally: 'When I met Barbara Kingsolver I burst into geriatric tears'
I still don't really understand the point of view. If the open source programmer don't want to do all these boring things you mentioned, they don't have to. If somebody has a problem with that, they can fork and fix it themselves, or offer to pay the programmer to do it. The unpaid open source programmer does not have any responsibility towards anybody else. Safety and maintenance is not his responsibility, it's the responsibility of whoever is using the software. If security is crucial, then they should inspect the code or pay for audited code, for example some closed source software.

I imagine a paid open source model to be where I and other users can offer money for features or bug fixes we need. The best implementation would be that users could each pool a small amount – "pitch in" – for features. Honestly, it wouldn't even have to be open source. Let users who are willing to pay developers have their say and make independent programming more sustainable. There are endless good consequences. For example, backwards compatibility might not be interesting for the open source programmer. With a bunch of users willing to pay for this, then it might become worth his time. Or language support, different platform support, special integrations.

And if the original developer is not interested in any paid work, then other programmers could fork and implement. Honestly, I think that users shouldn't even be allowed to raise an issue on Github or such places without offering monetary compensation. Fork or pay or die should be the motto.

Nice! We didn't even know about that. Thanks!
Most of the time we need to host our own servers for licensing issues, you might need to consider a "on premises" option if you want to be an viable option for a lot of studios.
Kubernetes on FreeBSD with Linux Worker Nodes and Cilium
A bit tangential, but as someone who has been responsible for paying many people, I have never seen increased pay improve performance and rarely morale. Promotions have sometimes covered the latter.

What I’ve found is that mostly people work as hard as they care to, and that is mostly orthogonal to compensation and title.
This talk by Lord David Willetts, at the Royal Institution, is more substantial than the title might suggest.

A miniature summary: the relative size of the Boomer cohort has created enough gravity to warp society around them as they have moved through it; changing society and policy to their advantage. This is the effect. No claims are made to intention.

It is focused on the United Kingdom.

It also contradicts that age old rule of the internet where the answer to the question in the title is always, "no".

It is a bug as there is potential to exploit this for karma farming and account reputation. Submit an archive link of already submitted story to bypass duplicate link check, once submission gains traction, admin replaces the archive link with original link but karma is farmed by archive link submitter.

This thread should have been merged into previous one and karma points should have been removed from archive link submitter.

Also a duplicate link checker upon replacing links would have caught duplicated submission. There is lot of room for improvement here.
Do you carry this philosophy through to your professional life? As in, do you only work for companies that produce open source software? If so it's an admirable stance, and I hope you're successful.

I imagine it's tricky (or at least unstable) to earn ones living working only for entirely open source companies, but maybe there are more opportunities out there than I'd realized.
Sorry, so I must have misunderstood AGPL then? Assuming a well written software, your configuration values can still be secret, right? As long as you give all your users the source code you got and the changes you made to the code (not the configuration), you should be ok? It is crazy to expect someone to ask for things like your database password or your exact configuration like sync intervals.
