We then calculate the demand side value based on a replacement value for each firm that uses the software and would need to build it internally if OSS did not exist.

Presumably in the absence of OSS, companies would write far simpler software than the OSS they presently use. What fraction of the code in the Linux kernel do most users ever run?
SwitchUpCB, PhD talks abou the reason that he rewrote all the software he rewrote in Rust, not in Rust.
Tangential, but are there any alternatives to LDAP today? I googled around and found nothing. Simpler schema, JSON, http, etc. I can't believe nobody has attempted to recreate it when people have for basically everything else. AFAICT the only real other standard is Active Directory.

And secondly, is there a standard or protocol for offloading access control? I see Authelia allows you to contol access by url patterns, but I'd expect e.g. a fileserver to instead reach out to the LDAP server and check permissions based on the authenticated user id and keys in the database. This seems like the opposite of oauth2 which is for a server getting access itself to a 3rd party service.
How was their sleep? I have sleep difficulty (including a non-24 hour circadian rhythm) and significant early memory issues. I also have a family history of dementia (I only know anything about the sleep of one family member with dementia, who did have significant sleep issues). I did a quick search and found there are some signs of a potential connection and this seems to be under more intense research at this point.

Also, manual labor isn't the same as cardiovasular exercise and it is possible (and likely much easier these days with all of the powered machinery and transport) to not get much cardiovascular exercise despite a physically intensive job. Although I'm guessing even today a logger would.
You're confusing design with invention. People design new instances of existing classes of object all the time, from shoes, to cars, to shirts. We call this profession "design", in fact. It's what the OP did with the cube: designed one.
"Useful" is subjective. Somehow a billion-year-old imperative to continue your bloodline by all costs faded to nothing in many people. Go figure.
The same one FAANG used to tell us that we couldn't do it either.

To paraphase "We want to give the candidate every chance to prove themselves, and cutting the interview short gives them a bad impression of the company (and it would make it easier to sue us for unfair discrimination)."

Since it was just a few (or in this case 1) interviews, and that makes it easier to claim that I cut it short because queue whatever protected class. Which, if someone was going to be that kind of jerk to a candidate, I guess doing it on the first interview WOULD be the one, eh? It would just be my word against theirs, instead of x interviewers vs theirs.

And I guess the riskiest type of candidate for that kind of crazy behavior WOULD be the person who felt okay blatantly lying on their resume about such a fundamental fact AND EVEN SHOWING UP FOR THE INTERVIEW, come to think about it.

We didn't get sued in this case though. I think the interviewee was just surprised someone was interviewing him who actually knew how to code.
I've heard recordings of them speaking about their beliefs. They were a nutty cult.

It's sad for them. Cults have a lot of innocent brainwashed people. Koresh himself probably had serious mental health problems which is pitiable.
"the vestibular system"
I wish the world weren't so bad that potential parents don't want to bring new lives into it... honestly, if I were a mother considering whether to have a child, I wouldn't want them to have to grow up in this terrible day and age. They'd end up more traumatized than I am. I wouldn't be able to live with myself.
No, no - I have a half a dozen RPi's of varying revisions. Since they run Linux and the SDcards are less than robust, anytime you accidentially trip the power (which to me happens several times during hardware debugging sessions) you risk scrambling the rootfs and thus need to reflash a new SDcard. Some SDcards get damaged.

I recommend using Arduino and/or Wokwi (https://wokwi.com/) to get started.
The whole "children are so expensive" meme is overrated. College is expensive but attendance rates are high. Real estate is expensive but people keep buying homes. Some alternate reasons for declining fertility:

1. Decline in religious belief

2. Widespread, easy to use birth control

3. More options for entertainment are widely available. Having kids is less attractive when you could be traveling, binging endless series, or playing computer games

4. Strong anti-natalist sentiment that was pushed very hard post-war and persists

5. Higher rates of college attendance, which means people are studying and furthering their careers in their 20s rather than having kids
Thank you, that is a big difference.

> is having the legality of the proposed course of action not just questioned but outright confidently asserted as contrary to the law based on an article that’s light on details.

i'm confused, is the article saying that its illegal, or is it saying that it ought to be illegal? i for one agree with that attitude, or at the very least believe that a studio shouldnt be able to get a tax writeoff for just sending a completed film to the void.

It doesn't, pmtiles is designed for tilesets updated at a daily to quarterly frequency, by replacing the entire archive on cloud storage. for minute-level updates serving tiles out of PostGIS is the best current approach, which is the approach Paul is taking for the OSMF project.
I would agree if I didn't have a reasonable body of work of either OSS software I have written or large OSS projects I have contributed to. The two together demonstrate I can make whatever I want from scratch and that I can work well enough with others to be part of something bigger.

The fact I still get ridiculous coding "exams" etc or pointless take-homes makes me think that most of our industry still doesn't take attracting and hiring actually good talent very seriously.
> deserves having their data lost

That is toxic. That toxicity is worse than "wasting" a single drive.

> and if you come back with "just download it again" just proves why you don't need to have it downloaded locally to start

How about "you can get most of it back, and it's okay to have a collection that's at risk of partial loss (good luck making any physical collection immune to loss)"

You're trading off the time to get things back and the percent you can get back for the cost of [redundant] backups.

> need to have it downloaded locally

Nobody suggested it needs to be downloaded. Do you only have data that you need to have?
Awesome backup plan!

Lucas' decision not to use Alan Dean Foster for followons probably says more about Lucas than Foster. Once he realized he had a money printing machine on his hands, the last thing he needed was a name author with ego, and ideas about character development and story line.

That said, he got him back in 2002 and 2015. I guess by then Lucas could afford to be more affable about name writers and his universe.

Maybe it all came down to contract and authors rights? People say Alec Guinness negotiated a very good deal, they don't tend to say anyone else did.
I'm having trouble finding any primary sources for the change itself. I don't think everyone is talking about the 2023 Closing Loopholes act? https://www.legislation.gov.au/C2023A00120/latest/text

Except the post very much is arguing studios shouldn’t be able to scrap projects. Did you catch the end? “governments exist (in part) to regulate corporations, in order to stop them from doing things that are deleterious or destructive to the public good and to individuals who work for them.” This isn’t saying the tax break is bad, it’s saying that deleting a film is what’s bad.
Children are not too expensive for anyone to afford, they're too expensive for most people to think it is worth having more than two. That might sound like a qualification, but it's what population decline means.
I'd go one step further and say that Agile might as well be tossed away entirely since it's common enough for companies to treat it like waterfall anyway, making the practice of many small iterations or iteration at all unwelcome. If your software team embraces iteration and incremental improvement, any presence of agile is probably redundant; if they aren't, or the nature of the work doesn't facilitate it, then Agile gets in the way regardless of the domain.
If Russians don't see that their ways ultimately lead to nowhere, it does not mean that others should accept Russian logic as rational. It is logical, but axioms the system is built upon are garbage.

I recently made a self-hostable web app* that works the same way; the user downloads regions with a point and click, I have the data on S3. I used Protomaps, which is vector library for the browser. I did look into seeing if I could just download the maps straight from Protomaps. I didn't end up doing so, I think it's because they didn't seem to have an API that I felt like I could scrape wholesale.

But also, it turns out that there's a question of how that data is generated. There's a certain schema of what sorts of things show up in the browser, perhaps with styles giving options for how to display them. But which raw OSM data you decide to include, and which visual element it corresponds to, is up to the producer of that data. So thinking of Organic Maps and OsmAnd, I bet they choose slighly different things and probably change it over time.

You can't unpublish a book by withdrawing the right and force the destruction of already sold copies. I believe DVDs fall under the same first sale doctrine, so this story seems to be missing some details.

When there is consequently more to do, more to experience, more people to meet, more to discover, more novelty to novel at. In short, the modern era has more of what makes the childhood experience what it is, enough to spill over into what was previously considered adulthood.

I sometimes ponder what would happen if we did discover the secret to substantial life extension or even immortality; if this phenomenon of trying to stretch that delightful halcyon glow of childhood wonder - what I've heard the Finns call lapsuus - would extend into decades or centuries or perpetuity as a result. It would if nothing else provide a plausible explanation for the behavior of characters like Q from Star Trek.
Financially, HBO's decision makes perfect sense as you said but it still sucks, especially if those series had no physical release. If a book or DVD goes out of print you could at least track down a used copy but for streaming there's nothing.
If you showed this to someone in the stone age they would literally think you were a god and probably worship the cube.
Leaflet is a separate project from OpenStreetMap - it's just one popular frontend for viewing tiles served from openstreetmap.org, like OpenLayers.

I don't believe the OSM Foundation has ever been involved in Leaflet development, as Leaflet development was supported in the past by commercial vendors of OSM data like CloudMade and Mapbox.

You talk as if being a loud grabby alien to other space civilizations is a hopeful thing for humanity to aspire to. Did not Star Trek had a Prime Directive for some reason? Though I do like solving the Fermi Paradox by humanity taking a good hard look in the mirror. May disprove us being Big Foot Medusas with one stone too.

Humanity just got rid of a nasty period of colonizing space on earth. I would not let us near intergalactic space without a time-out period.
I started Sauce Labs (Selenium SaaS for testing in the cloud) 16 years ago. Raised ~$150MM. Still going.
That's the point of the new legislation. If the business discriminates against you because you're not willing to work outside of your scheduled hours, the business faces penalties.

It's the same principle as not requiring unpaid overtime to get ahead etc. The government sets a regulatory framework, and businesses have to compete within the rules.
I believe the average cost to raise a child in the US is comparable to a Lamborghini. I suppose it's up to the individual to decide what the more desirable purchase is.

There were other boat launches in Frankfort and Empire they could have used, maybe 20 minutes away. That river is not very traversable as it has a weir on it.
with 3 kids at 31 you would most likely be the outlier in many countries. all the rest you said resonates - so many people do not want to have kids at all anymore, and it’s not difficult to understand why (socioeconomic uncertainty, environmental issues, a lot of places are not “child friendly”, and there’s more). having kids today seems to be an even more difficult undertaking than in the past; and in my opinion there is a lot less peer pressure pushing to procreate

There are two groups of people who consistently have children: People who can afford it, and people who have nothing to lose by not affording it.

It's a process you follow to stop yourself from answering the question for them.

Ask them to define success, what the obstacles are to it, what their options are to overcome it, and immediate next steps to take.

Basically a modern version of "teach a man to fish".
The value prior to disposal is irrelevant. The IRS cares about the basis (cost to produce) and that it was disposed at $0.

> you could replace Cryptocurrency with Capitalism

Because cryptocurrency and markets for it are a little alien, it's easier to recognize their essential characteristics while assuming what I'm accustomed to is normal and natural and inherently correct and good.

But crypto is a mirror that helps me understand the essential characteristics of the money and markets that appear so normal.

Yes, cryptocurrency is not backed by anything, it's just a collective social delusion. Yes, free markets in cryptocurrency are rife with scams, they don't do a great job of discounting all available information, and they extract wealth from the many and deliver it efficiently to the few.

Cryptocurrency has the same structure, mechanics and inevitable outcomes as the dollars, euros, and markets that we all know, it only differs in degree.
I think they were saying that because they're an experienced ML engineer more than because of what companies they've worked at.

This legislation does not prevent additional work, but it heavily and aggressively penalises employers who insist upon it. Notably these sorts of things can be prosecuted in review if it is found that there's an unrealistic expectation that employees must work outside of hours or find themselves disadvantaged.

> Given that it is apparently not possible to prove that they deleted the movie

Why does it matter if they delete it or not? As long as they don’t sell it, they don’t make a profit on it, and don’t pay taxes on the profits. If they didn’t delete it and then actually sold it after enjoying their tax break, then they’d be committing actual tax fraud.

> refusing to release or sell the movie should have triggered a shareholder lawsuit

And yet it didn’t. So maybe shareholders are fine with it? Why should shareholders sue when a company doesn’t release a product? This literally happens all the time.
It's about setting boundaries, and making sure you aren't penalized when someone doesn't understand boundaries.

You don't need to be contacted after hours for bullshit; and using the excuse of "ambition" shows why these laws need to exist: Some managers don't understand healthy boundaries.

As addressed in the upstream PBS summary and the released report linked here, arsom investigators concluded the fire started at multiple internal ignation points simultaneously etc. etc.

The report lists the physical evidence that led to that conclusion.

Naturally you can assert that the report was doctored and the evidence fabricated, others can then respond and ask where is your evidence <shrug>.
You are correct when taken your value definitions of compensation and power, that FOSS is exploitative but i think you miss some important aspects here.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33298158

This great article depicts some "loosers" as voluntary, that simply want to have a fulfilled life. FOSS is in itself a product of passion, no exploitive sociopath could ever bootstrap this. The free accessibility of software and knowledge is what enables the FOSS enthusiast and the profiteurs alike. Reducing FOSS to the latter is a valid perspective and your concerns are reasonalbe but even if there was no exploitation/corporate use of FOSS software, i assume, the maintainers would still do their unpaid thing. The expoitation comes second and is not inherent to FOSS. I wouldnt call it "worst thing on".

Also, steven balmer disagrees with you :)

Edit: Maybe some kind of GPL-like infectious form of enterprise could be a solution, where such a non-exploitive/worker owned company is bound to prefer business partners/suppliers that adhere to it too. Just a throw-in.
The boss can still ask you to come in on Sy day under the new laws. They just cannot badger you about it.

Insane amount of work compared to dropping in battle-tested (or even modestly used) OSS, with stackoverflow/gpt solutions at your fingertips for nearly anything imaginable.

Most companies core competency is in delivering business value, which means shipping useable products and features. This most often boils down to building atop a thick stack of open-source technologies (e.g. Dropwizard, Kafka, Postgres, MySQL, Opensearch/License, the vast Java and Golang ecosystems, Python, Django, RoR, PHP, and on and on). Without that, devs would need to spend $$$ licensing privately owned solutions, or do a ton of work developing homegrown spaghetti frameworks and platforms from scratch before even being able to start considering addressing core functional use cases. This would be very bad for startups with limited runway to get off the ground.

What can be in days to weeks through OSS resources would take months to years, or costly licensing.
Remarkable has that built in. They offer their own cloud service that makes it trivial to sync your files.
