A couple of other people answered you already in a lot of detail, so I don’t have much to add there.

But I do recognize that really is a legitimate question and it feels like Yubi would benefit from running more outreach / promotion programs with schools and companies. I never felt like I could justify spending $50 just to try it out(especially when it doesn’t have support in a lot of sites), but then they partnered with Cloudflare to sell up to 5 per person at $10 each. It was a no-brainer to try it at that price and I haven’t looked back
They did. It's called JXL. JXL is clearly technically superior to WebP and AVIF and the decisions from the Chromium team (not even Google as a whole, since they have a Google Research team working on JXL encoders/decoders) have faced a ton of criticism because they're vague and mostly false and seem to be based on internal politics and Chromium being able to dictate web standards due to having de facto control over the browser engine market.
Propanolol is a fantastic anxiety treatment. In some ways better than xanax, at least for me.

Highly, highly recommend trying it. They say it's for "stage fright", which can be offputting because "stage fright" (at least to me) seems almost wholly unrelated to the type of anxiety I suffer from.

It's a miracle from my perspective. If you suffer from generalized anxiety, please ask your doctor about it.

Just to really hammer this home: I had doctors recommend this drug to me for years, and I always more or less ignored them. I have taken xanax for quite some time, and took this recommendation as them being apprehensive about prescribing it (which i understand, since many people abuse it).

Propanolol seems to have the same type of calming effect, but with none of tired/disassociative feelings that xanax gives (which I don't like). The first time I took it I almost wanted to cry. It really was just like a switch that turned the anxiety off. It does take about 60-90 minutes to fully kick in, though.

Nit: Malpractice insurance is (a species of) E&O insurance.
Bluesky seems to operate pretty well with 3M+ users and 140M posts [0], but I'm fascinated to learn how the decentralized systems would scale if even just the Bluesky reaches within an order of magnitude of Twitter's scale (~500M tweets per day). Or from a behavioral perspective, what kind of ecosystem will evolve when the API has (afaik) no gatekeeping. The fact that anyone can see any other user's blocklist (both who they're blocking AND who's blocking them) probably has had at least a slight effect on interactions.

The appropriate billing from Apple is none whatsoever. How do people keep coming up with this nonsense?
Nice strawman bro.

Nobody is saying to not expand your knowledge. You’re assuming it of this because it’s literally your only argument, but it’s an unfortunately shitty one, as most logical fallacies tend to be.

Nobody said “don’t have wide experience” but you. What I did say was “I’d probably avoid being an ardent fanboy toward an irrelevant to the interview tech stack”. And that “it’s most often best to leave irrelevant digressions to the interviewer”

Again, you go ahead and give out all the shit tier interview advice you like. For people that actually want jobs, probably try to stick to what’s relevant.
I guess I'm the exception to the rule, I spent a fair chunk of my previous weekend upgrading the hardware on my opnsense router/firewall so that I could virtualize opnsense and be able to glom on related services exactly like AdGuard Home easily.

I often wonder if there should be a suite of tests that deliberately dont use well-tuned algorithms, or optimal ones, as the basis for benchmarks.

In the real world, people dont choose optimal paths in code very often. Or what was once optimal becomes suboptimal because the context changes.

Supposing that a benchmark chose to do, say, bubblesort on an insanely large list. Would that lead to more insight around how the compiler would act in the real world? Or are the pitfalls so well understood that they are universally optimized away by the compiler's earliest stages or processing?

If I were selling, say, Azul or some other alternative JDK, I might make a point of noting that it does a superior job of dealing with the code as it exists today, rather than as one might wish it to be.

HSBC soon to be RBC. This is not very surprising, a lot of this also gets facilitated by the independent mortgage brokers who get ppl through the system with some 'creative coaching'.
I'm not aware of any reason why what you're describing wouldn't work. At least in a browser tab, all the wasm modules will share the same JavaScript GC heap, so the string data should be sharable between the modules if it's passed around as a GC reference.
Going to an ER after taking cannabis seems like something only someone with an existing anxiety disorder might do.

A more accurate headline might read: People with anxiety disorders who take cannabis may unnecessarily visit the ER.
Honestly this is fucking whacko to me. "We've incorporated a legal entity whose entire purpose is to make money, but we have no idea how that's going to happen." How is this even allowed?

Anyway the answer is ads. This just means it's going to be ads. It's always fucking ads. No one has ever gone into a capitalistic venture sans business plan and ended up doing anything besides selling fucking ads.
So, you will get the template for free. And then a lawyer has to put it on their letterhead and they charge you the exact same as they do right now for that because that will be made a requirement.
Nightpool has been an admin of AcitvityPub servers of all sizes for years now and is versed in the moderation challenges therein, I'm not sure they'd agree :) I'm not sure I agree that it's a solvable issue at community scale.
Does the VisionPro not support WebVR?
Not only Canada.

In Australia this became pervasive across all banks for the last 25 years. It got to the point where, around 5-10 years ago, new national rules were mandated that foreign income could only be assessed at some minor percentage of its evidenced volume under the epithet "loan serviceability criteria". At the face of it, these rules appear to have the public's best interests at heart. But in reality, they simply lock out anyone that isn't a locally registered card-carrying commuter wageslave (eg. cross-border entrepreneurs, immigrants, etc.).

So the new scam - from multiple independent sources - is apparently people from Singapore taking out loans in Chinese Yuan Reminbi denominations for Australian property against Singapore or Hong Kong banks, then coming to the Australian banks and having them "transferred" (internationally, and across currencies!) which allegedly sidesteps the local restrictions. The fact that I know this simply from talking to bank staff as a stranger shows how extremely pervasive these sorts of things are.
So, there's two things: AT, and BlueSky.

BlueSky feels like a centralized platform, which is (IMHO) important for user experience. Especially as a new user. But it's got the underlying tech of a distributed one, which means cool things. For example, I can run my own "algorithms" (in the sense that lay people talk about "the twitter algorithm" or "the facebook algorithm") or use ones that others have made, easily. There's a lot of interesting things technical users can do, and it's designed in such a way that non-technical users can take advantage of those things.

As a practical example of this, someone I follow posted a link to various algorithms they like: https://bsky.app/profile/why.bsky.team/post/3kkre625bse23

To use this, I just click through, and then "pin to home." it becomes a regular tab that I can view my feed through, just like the default ones. The "Quiet posters" algorithm here is one I'm actually interested in: I have often said one issue with the default algorithm is that I feel like I miss people who aren't actively posting when I happen to actively load up BlueSky. Now I can just check in on this feed and see those posts! What's going on here is very technically interesting, but as a user, I don't need to worry about any of that.

AT is what enables this, but is also broader than "short text posts." I am interested by future possibilities for AT, but that's more of a vision than something concrete today.
How do you know they aren't great software engineers if you were unable to hire them? I don't really understand what you're saying here
This has nothing to do with values and everything to do with the lack of support for 180 degree side by side video…
It'd be interesting to understand what kind of performance problem Apple had and tried to solve with GraalVM/Truffle. I've seen some instances of heavy configs that generate literally several gigabytes of data, but those were usually not significant bottlenecks since configs are not updated very frequently.

Of course, I know those two frameworks are one of the engineering marble of the age and would understand even if they decided to go without any concrete needs for it.
Depends what counts as an MAU. I deleted my Twitter account, but I can’t realistically delete my Facebook account because I have too many messenger contacts to make it worth doing. I occasionally receive a text message fron someone I haven’t seen for a long time or an aunt on another continent, so I probably count as an MAU but I am not seeing any ads on Facebook.m

Apple, on the other hand has 2 billion active devices that people paid money for and are on a replacement cycle. Somehow that is only worth twice what a Facebook account is worth in terms of market cap.
>Where does this active scorn for game developers come from?

Many devs grew up with the dream of working for the next big title and instead ended up as a web dev who creates a button in React every few weeks. Now they are trying to justify their life choices.
Hi, I'm one of the authors of CLI Guidelines.

See my post https://smallstep.com/blog/command-line-secrets/ for a bit more of a deep dive about using secrets on the command line.

Credential files are a good, simple, portable option. Files have permissions already. They don't depend on an external service or a proprietary API.

And, if your program accepts a credential file, it will be compatible with systemd credentials. systemd credentials offer more security than an unencrypted credential file. They are encrypted and can be TPM-bound, but they don't require the software using the credential to have native TPM support.
Optery founder here. We did a deep dive comparison between Incogni and Optery (https://www.optery.com/incogni-review/). The biggest takeaway is Incogni, at this time, does not cover many of the most popular people search sites like Whitepages, TruePeopleSearch, Spokeo, RocketReach, ThatsThem, BeenVerified, TruthFinder, InstantCheckmate, and many others. Most Incogni reviews you'll find online are written by their affiliate partners.
> “Bank statements can be verified directly with the foreign banks or use a reputable third party to verify,” he suggested.

Is that even possible with Chinese bank accounts?

Anyway, the presence of Chinese Funny Money in property has been known about for years, not just in Canada either.

> A paid web could eliminate the ad ecosystem and all its toxicity (surveillance technology, etc.)

I don't know how anyone can still live under this delusion when we're currently seeing multiple paid streaming services putting ads on their paid plans that were advertised as ad-free.

Corporations will never be happy with the profit they're making. If they can make you pay AND show you ads, they will.
I think many of my objections are fundamental. How will eyeglasses control external light bleed without physical blockers? How will battery technology adapt to a wire-thin design language? How will the field-of-view extend beyond the glasses? How will you manage the user's interpupillary distance and allow it to be manipulated on the fly?

The greatest trick the devil pulled was convincing the world technical limitations don't exist. Flying cars sound cool, until you consider every single logistical limitation that prevents it from being a commercial reality. Yes they exist, but are they practical? Will they ever be?
I’m an immigrant. I’ll be the first in line to agree that all the demands (and the specifics of those demands: personal space, hygiene, clothing, noise etc) for assimilation by western societies that I’ve ever heard re: immigrants, are reasonable - assuming such luxuries can be afforded (nobody crams themselves 8 to a room by choice).

But, people aren’t robots whose movements are controlled by an on-off switch. The government introduced the means for people to arrive and work, and so the people arrived. They are continuing to arrive because the policies have not been updated yet. How is it the immigrants’ fault? Why the hate and the attacks on their dignity & humanity?

The nonstop online vitriol hurts me deeply to read - nowhere is “safe” - Reddit, HN, Instagram… the hate spewers seemingly spend all their time spewing on these platforms to manipulate opinions and tap into the fundamental atavistic psychological flaws of the human mind.
It seems like this is setting the bar insanely high for success and failure. Meta is a trillion dollar company with growing revenue. One of the most successful companies in the world. Even at half the size, it would be tremendously successful

Sure, but the phenomenon exists across all the threads about cannabis.

While your complaint about Apple is generally true...

If you'd read the article, you'd see that it's because Apple hasn't supported SBS video - one of the most common 3d video technologies. It has nothing to do with imposing values. No reason has been given, although "SBS isn't supported to keep porn off their platform" is ludicrous conspiracy.

Cannabis use seemed to "unlock" a type of anxiety that I had never experienced before, and after using it, I could never "forget" this feeling. Absolute hell that now recurs.

It seems absolutely insane to me that our pop culture pushes this stuff as at worse benign, but usually beneficial.
You have to burn carbon to build renewable energy components if you don't have enough energy from existing solar + wind; I don't know what you expect. But now they have ~500GW of energy to build next year's >>500GW [1]. It's an investment and every year it pays off.

Look at any wiki article on any major global bank, the chapter about 'controversies and legal issues' is always a thick list, HSBC ain't worse or better than others.

There are no good guys there, that's not why the business was set up and corresponding folks were/are hired. If you want more controls, enforce more regulations, they do work if well defined.
In my experience, these kind of extremists kinda get banned immediately. I might be wrong though: do you have any example of right-wing accounts publicly saying that one entire ethnic group should be killed?
Don't worry, nobody will do anything about global warming, either.

We've already blown right past the Paris accord, I'm sure we'll soon come up with a new accord that will set a target that we will also blow past.

In the meantime, invest in an air conditioner and an air purifier for your city home, and try not to own any summer dachas in heavily forested areas.
If you'd read the article, you'd see that it's because Apple hasn't supported SBS video - what porn generally shoots in.
> I do think that there is something to the fact that the monorepo and single-version rule means that sometimes a team says "we are changing how you do X with our system, everybody needs to update by Date Y" and then the bulk of teams upgrade but there's some project with a skeleton crew doing maintenance and it is not possible to fund the upgrade and so the entire project gets deleted instead

Yeah that sounds familiar and sort of makes sense.
I like how this approach trusts your future self to look back at these files, while the other methods implicitly distrust the future self motivation to look back at your present self.

Can we deeply trust the concept of our future self as being equivalent and worthwhile of replacing our present? Do we treat that future self almost like a child of our own?
Sounds like the solution is to work in a small enough company that such a "higher up" doesn't exist. But then the risk for the company to go bankrupt (or grow so much they start existing) is also higher. It also seems to be "priced in" by lower pay too ? (The extreme being a 1-2 devs company.)
When it comes to federation, you really need to focus on the technical concerns first...
It's not a conspiracy, if there is an avenue through which porn could make it onto their platform and Apple has control over that avenue it will be closed. In software, in hardware or through the TOS and a review process. You can count on it.

One time, I answered the most suspicious phone call from someone pretending to work in a recovery service and that I had to pay a medical bill to them. I asked what medical bill, they told me it was confidential.

I wanted to just forget about it, but after questioning my wife about it and thinking about for a long time and going through our bank records, we found that one time when she went to the doctor and didn't have her insurance info or something, so we never knew we had something to pay and instead of contacting us directly, the unpaid bill went straight to a third party recovery service. It was a small fee, so I assume they lost most of it by paying the recovery service. We didn't move or change email/phone number or anything, so the doctor's office must have failed to save our contact info.

The recovery service probably found our number just with names and basic info I guess.

And yeah, it makes sense that they can't tell us what it the bill about or which doctor's office it is.
That's not a hot take, that's just being an asshole for the sake of being one.

"I don't like the games of the last few years, so let's dunk on people who have been part of a mass layoff with some thoughtful 'hurti durti, if you had any sense you would have bailed a few years ago'."

Most people wouldn’t visit an ER for cannabis unless they already had some anxiety disorder that lead to insane amounts of anxiety.

This is great work, although benchmarks that do not explicitly include analyses of each JVM’s GC options and their behaviors don’t help me much in practice. I’m not doing scientific computing; I need to know what kind of GC pauses I get and how often.
Preface: I drive a hybrid, and I have since 2002, before they were cool.

The reason government incentives aren’t pushing hybrids now is that government policy is driven off of idealism instead of practicality. In the ideal world, a brand new hybrid is too little too late. A 2024 hybrid will almost certainly still be operating in 2040. By then we really need to be at near-zero carbon emissions if we want to have any hope of avoiding climate catastrophe. On the other hand the status quo means people are just buying gas guzzlers since they can’t afford/can’t practically use BEV.
There's something I wish command lines would not adopt that is should not be as a CLI flag, and that's --json or --csv. Instead this should be offered as an environment variable that runs through all the commands like IOFORMAT=JSON { cmd1|cmd2|cmd3 } if they support the environment variable, they can all read input in a safe way and behave appropriately, if they don't, then they just print as normal
I am talking about career of a game developer, not customers. Indie games also have loot boxes, it is a great way to monetize..

It is really bad move to work for "woke" companies as cis hetero white guy with some experience. You have to work much harder. And promotions to senior positions are limited...
Sierra Club SF opposes local housing. California Environmental Quality Act advocates use it to block bike lanes. And in general, California environmentalists talk about visions for "green space" over such use. POSIWID, right? If CEQA has been most effectively used against bike lanes and housing, then CEQA's purpose is to oppose bike lanes and housing.

But it's their job to know this, so I stay in my lane for the most part and cancelled my Terrapass etc. Only thing I kind of oppose is $4b/mi subway projects. I think we could use that more effectively.

But otherwise, I'm happy to support the mainstream environmentalist view that geothermal and nuclear power is evil and that living stacked on top of each other like sardines is a bad thing for the environment. The second car is just a consequence of that. You can't expect my wife and me to live far away and bike 50 mi in independent directions. Listen, I'm in STEM, so I could not possibly comprehend or understand the nuances of the climate. I've got to trust the local experts and the Sierra Club et al. are local experts.
If you enjoy GoRails, you should check out Drifting Ruby. It's great channel aswell! I even prefer Drifting Ruby over GoRails.
OK fair enough.

As an aside, I don't think that's greed, I think it's perverse incentives - e.g. if a VP wants that big stock bonus next year, they have to figure out how to cause x% revenue growth, rinse and repeat. Sooner or later you hit market saturation and have exhausted all the easy, user-friendly solutions.
