I think Apple's power has always been to make unpopular things be suddenly cool. They could have aimed a bit lower and made some kind of urban transport a al e-bikes or Segways only more Apple. It's a market niche that was available and close to their strengths.
My Meta recruiter three years ago was excellent, answered questions really well and was very flexible, transparent, and responsive with scheduling. Probably my best interview experience so far, although I ended up accepting a different offer for a more senior position. The stars were aligned then, though... I was already working at a prestigious company, had competing offers, and performed well on the interviews (I suspect at least 1-2 "strong hire" or equivalent.)

The market was quite different back then.

Loki basically works like a nice UI on mapreducing logs. The rest is exactly my point about ELK.
I am aware, yes.

My assumption about an SDK like that is that it's getting that access through some assumed mean(s) that the user just clicks past without thinking.
that's bullshit, we don't need platforms to interact online, we were doing that fine before myspace and facebook and perhaps you're too young to remember that but it worked pretty well and we were all on the hook for what we hosted on our sites.
The trick would we to move everyone from the first floor to the 6th, rent out the first floor and let them pay for "their" heating bill, knowing warm air goes up ;)

The most innocuous ads left are the 3-4 minute commercial breaks you can mute or skip on a DVR. The most important difference with streaming is that control of the video stream has gone from the viewer to the provider. I'd cancel cable if commercials became unskippable.

Sports have become unwatchable everywhere though because the announcers read micro ads between pitches, plays, whenever they can. You can't skip those like you can the longer breaks.
I would be cautious about brain-body ratios. In all vertebrates, a huge chunk of the brain is dealing with sensory processing and integration, so brain volume : body size doesn't always scale the way you think it would.

The bigger problem is I don't think your numbers are right, Neanderthals had notably larger brains than us. Via wikipedia:

Average Neanderthal male height: 165cm
Average Neanderthal male brain volume: 1600cm^3

Average pre-industrial human male height: 165cm
Average pre-industrial human male brain volume: 1260cm^3

The difference is that Neanderthals also had disproportionately larger eyes than us, yet probably similar visual acuity: their brains had more pixels to process, which takes up quite a bit of volume. In fact it's eye size which seems to be the biggest confounding variable in associating brain size with intelligence. Their cerebellum was actually smaller than ours, which is probably more relevant - but who knows?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal
Why not? This seems like a great thing to happen. If the author's heart is really in the project, then this is a huge opportunity moment to learn something new.
Neither is a re-invention of the other; they happen to do things that are partially similar, but also totally different. NixOS uses the /nix/store structure to allow it to pin everything to everything in service of its goal of absolute reproducibility/determinism. GoboLinux restructured the filesystem in order to be "nicer" (very loosely speaking). The result is that (IMO) nix is more technically elegant, and Gobo is a lot friendlier to work with. (I type this from a NixOS machine and with love in my heart for both)

> I know it's marketing nonsense, but really, how?

I suppose that there is a segment of the fast-food-burger market that would choose Wendy's over a competitor if the price of food drops a slight bit during off-peak hours.

However, reversed, I have a hard time imagining that they will be able to squeeze what customer base they have even more by creating surge pricing increases during peak hours.

Maybe they'll only adopt the discount side to try to aid customer volume during off-peak hours? That seems reasonable.

Good to know there's a market for that. Currently building out something. Integrating from numerous sources, processing and then utilizing those.

Fine by me. These site can all die in a ball of fire. We were fine before them when we all had our own sites and all too responsibility for what we said and hosted. Returning to that is not a problem for some of us who were around before Facebook and YouTube.
>F-35s are significantly cheaper than they were a few years ago, and as more are produced the prices continue to drop

I've heard this argument before about Canada's F-35 saga and it is now what it was then, massive copium overdose. By this logic Canada ought to wait until the F-35 is obsolete and other nations are selling airframes off for cheap.

That Canada did not have to use its air force in war during the Trudeau years does not mean that its 100% politically driven decision to shirk on the F-35 buy, then jump back on it again, was not a mistake.

I appreciate your candor (and your article)
I have crossed paths with a lot of bad code. They write it faster than I can fix it.
All of my phones (except the iPhone, actually) had hard reboot issues at around the 2-3yr mark. Usually at under 30% battery charge under high load. HTC Incredible, Galaxy S4, and Nexus 6. Nexus 6 was the worst, but I also had that one the longest.

My iPhone X didn't have shutoff issues, but the battery did swell enough to push out the screen, which Apple replaced for free even with an expired warranty.
I think the bigger issue than the environment, not to undervalue its importance, is that Shein and Temu literally use slave labor.

I think we should allow companies a lot of freedom in how they hire. Outlaw discrimination in a few clear categories and leave it at that. If their interview process sucks enough then they'll miss out on good candidates and lose in the market. If you feel it's not worth your time then don't interview there.

Personally I've found that the companies with intensive interview processes pay twice as much as everyone else, so in the long run I'm compensated for the extra time.
They're also firing people for fun. I know of a guy who is deep in the weeds upgrading their scala libraries that just got laid off within the week. (You have to do that to stay on top of all of the cves)
I'm familiar with the intent behind the structure. I am mostly asking about the security implications you mentioned.

One downside to Program Files type structure is that there's probably going to be some duplicate libraries lying around. However, as someone who's battled version skews due to clashing maintainer mindsets: that's been a much bigger pain in my ass than a few wasted kbs!
end private health insurance. single payer system needed.
Apple has been using ML for years in camera image processing, facial IDing in photos and faceID, Apple Watch health tracking, and likely other ways I’m not thinking of. The idea that a car project would get in the way of any other R&D in a trillion dollar company doesn’t seem to make much sense, so I’m unsure where that rumor came from. And it also seems to ignore that Apple has recently announced AI related architecture, and AI models. Those didn’t just happen overnight; they would have been cooking for months.
Yes! I couldn't possibly agree more; this is truly my fondest wish!
Yes, exactly. Lol. If you can obscure the sun, that is already cooling things down by much greater means.
no, it's not. it has to match the switch hardware virtually and also whatever the switch os is.
Oh boy, do "Apple doesn't care about REAL PROS" next! What a nostalgia rush!
A lot of the doctors I've seen recently just don't take insurance. Basically they just tell me what something costs and then I pay it. Obviously if you are poor this is a problem, but then again so is everything else and you probably can't afford health insurance anyway.

I've always felt it is a great sorrow that the world couldn't fit more than one intelligent hominid species on it for more than a short period before all but one were wiped out (killed, outbred, whatever).

Imagine living on a planet with multiple human-level intelligent species, who somehow had managed to get to now without eradicating each other.

> Jokes aside, this completely ignores the fact that there is a reason for /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin and /etc and the sbin directories. A lot of it has to do with permissions. If you've ever been a member of a multi-user server you might understand.

I've administered multi-user servers and I can only guess at what you mean. Like... I've seen distros that default non-admin users to not having sbin directories in their PATH, but even then it's not like that's a security thing, it just makes your path a little cleaner. What security benefit do you see to the different directories?

(In fairness, I can see non-security reasons to split things up - the traditional reason is that /bin is local, /usr is on NFS and shared between every machine in the lab, and /usr/local is non-packaged software built from source. But none of that is a security argument.)
So if there was an intelligent life form on Pluto they would count their age in days (pluto days)?
There are shops on TikTok, seems to be a pretty big thing in some countries.
Awesome, I’ve been wanting to do this for a while. (albeit, a much pared down voice-memos-with-social-feed type thing.) Best of luck!
TikTok runs a very large marketplace. A lot of people shop on there. Nowhere near the size of Amazon or Walmart, but sizeable.
Unfortunately, the three people who programmed the vast majority of modern SuperTuxKart and managed the community were bullied out of the project a couple years ago. [1]

The new team lead was somebody who seemed to have a habit of stonewalling [2] ideas and code contributions from both community members and the dev team, talking down about "newbie-tier players" with "zero skill", and [3] hyperfixating on "balance" (in what is fundamentally a kids' game) without room for fun or discussion. The lead artist, who made basically all the tracks that are worth looking at, and whom I'd worked with now and then to get a couple contributions included, eventually disappeared too.

Naturally, commits, contributors, and blog posts/updates are now at an all-time low. [4]

So, don't let your group dynamic be taken over by domineering personalities, I guess, is the lesson.

i like the idea of tight integration between frontend and backend by abstracting out the api/data fetching/transformation which is a lot of busy work
It exactly is a structured log or log in open telemetry.

To make it easier for myself, I think of spans also as structured logs with a schema that everyone had agreed on, which make it possible to trace requests across multiple services/clients. It's probably more than that, but I don't need academic precision to see how this is more useful during livesite investigations than simply querying logs with unaligned schemas.
I mean that's a tough one, because the algorithm can be very subtle sometimes and trying to explain your reasoning as to why you think a certain trend in the content you're being suggested is an insidious form of behaviour modification is genuinely hard to do without sounding like a schizo who's spent too much time with Alex Jones.

Sometimes it seems to 'give up' and get frustrated - I literally was suggested some weird religious 'being gay is a sin' video followed by a literal vaginal speculum video once. Can't really misread that message.

> The idea that we'd eclipse the sun to control the climate is just one of the dumbest scifi nerd fantasies I've ever heard.

Except we basically already did it, just unintentionally. A primary hypothesized reason for the literally-off-the-charts heat of the past 15 months or so is that regulations that cleaned up the amount of sunlight-reflecting aerosols in container ship fuel was having the effect of letting more sunlight reach Earth; the idea is that the aerosols had previously been limiting the amount of global warming that would have shown up earlier.

My point is that while geoengineering does sound pretty crazy at first, it feels less crazy once you realize we've already been doing geoengineering on a massive, global scale.
Attachment isn't as much of an issue with paper planes since the small size and low speed give much more favorable Reynolds numbers.

> Doesn't do squat for the carbon footprint either way tho.

Yeah it does. Heating two half-empty floors will generally have a higher carbon footprint than one full floor one way or another, and especially if you then rent out the other floor you're saving a bunch of emissions (particularly given how much it takes to build new buildings).

The company doesn't actually care about the carbon footprint, of course, which is why it's a bullshit excuse, but it does have that positive effect.
I think you've phrased my point better than I did. What I meant was that to advocate for software like Yuzu to exist necessarily entails defending piracy, because outside of a tech echo chamber almost nobody is interested in an emulator existing for emulation's sake.

To illustrate what I mean...if credible stats were somehow collected and showed that 99% of Yuzu users were using it to run games they didn't pay for, I think plenty of judiciaries at that point would consider it a de facto pirating tool versus a tool that is incidentally used for piracy. If you think that this still doesn't mean that the project should be shut down or fined, then I think it's a lot more productive to advocate for such software to exist even if it's a pirating tool than to try to sell everyone on the idea that it's totally a minority that are using it as such. And I think that would require going back to the drawing board re: digital IP rights.
i was being sarcastic. my fault. the joke is wework, theranos, snapchat, lyft...
Possibly. People tend to speak more callously on the internet than in real life, but I asked a few coworkers about this, all were uncomfortable and one was visibly distressed; I guess thats what happens when someone that hasnt experienced this kind of behavior growing, then suddenly gets a full dose. Its hard to imagine winning anyone over leading with that.

Though, the strategy isnt so much about winning in that arguement, but just trying to get an ugly response, so you are probably right.
I've tried GoboLinux, I think it's better to just # make install and to uninstall, # make -n install | xargs rm -rf or Solus Linux's package manager. (Currently using CachyOS on a comfy HP Envy Move with a comfy Lenovo Wireless Keyboard and Mouse combo, my shameless plug.)
Yes that’s definitely the preeminent primary hypothesized reason.

Yes. Anything that has machined and injection molded housings, a screen, pcbas and software/firmware. Basically all consumer electronics are cousins in this context. Time doesn't matter here, industry verticals do.

Cars are wildly different, 50 years ago GE would have seemed like the one that would make a phone, not ford.
Book: Data Engineering Design Patterns (DEDP)
You've fundamentally misunderstood how GoboLinux works. The whole point of these kind of distros is to avoid mixing packages into a single common directory. Each version of each software are installed in separate directories in /Programs so that they won't cause conflicts with each other. Then for convenience, a single version of each software will be symlinked into /System/Index.

This is way more meaningful than the /bin & /usr/bin split that distros are increasingly moving away from because multiple versions of the same software or forks can coexist on the same system. This model also makes /usr/local unnecessary.
I quite like that categorisation.
“Slave labor” is not a hyperbole or commentary on global wage differentials, or underpaid workers.

just tell investors to look at adjusted net ebitda. you'll be fine, they won't even notice (sarcasm because you need this stuff spelled out for you)

It called the fully adjusted number “community adjusted Ebitda,” by which it subtracted not only interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, but also basic expenses like marketing, general and administrative, and development and design costs. Those earnings were $233 million, WeWork said.
I tried it and I'd rather # make install to install a program and # make -n install | xargs rm -rf to uninstall a program.

Instagram has it too. It's smart on the side of the social network. Rather than linking to your linktree you can run the store on your page directly (for a cut). Because sellers want the additional reach they're willing to typically create a second/third shop in your ecosystem rather than just having Shopify/Etsy.

Because perfect security is impossible and you only have to leak your real IP once - especially with committing to github it would be so easy for a tool or plugin to leak that.
I have observed the same thing.

I dont know if there is an equation, but it think it just comes from bloated HT department. There is only so much Facebook and Instagram browsing that HR folks can do in one day, eventually they have to do some form of work. This translates into policies, forced trainings, migration from an HR system to another, etc etc.

HR is usually the team most disconnected from the rest of the company. They don't know what the company sells/produces. They don't know what are the important projects/deadlines in flight. They just do their thing.
Thanks. I appreciate the correction.
I want to know who exactly the “industry officials who compete with the healthcare giant” they’re interviewing are. The price fixing and collusion go way way deeper and broader than just United Healthcare and Optum.
Who, exactly, is hypothesizing this? Because I couldn’t find any reference to such a hypothesis.
No they’re not. If a third party gets 5% of the vote, they receive federal funding during the next election which could be enough to make them go mainstream. Also every vote is tallied so your vote is more visible when you vote for a 3rd party. Anonymously of course.
Just to be clear, GoboLinux works nothing like Program Files. Packages still depend on each other and aren't self contained.
