Same. I've never worked in infrastructure teams because I simply don't care about this stuff, and I always find it funny how the infrastructure details tend to leak out to us application developers.

Come on, I just want to deploy my app somewhere. I don't want to know about yamls and kubernetes, I just want a button where I deploy my branch.

It often feels like people working on infrastructure and platform development do it for it's own sake, forgetting that they were supposed to be enablers for other teams building on top of it.
The miracle of modern chip manufacturing (visual)
This is a nice simple visual guide to chip fabrication, chiplets, and the advantage of back-side power.
Yup, short stories were published exclusively on KDP in the Kindle Unlimited program.
I’m interested to know how this is/will affect the prices of LFP batteries available to consumers off sites like Alibaba. I’ve been toying with the idea of building a DIY 48v off grid system using the typically blue 280-300Ah LFP cells. I never really tracked the price over time though so it would be interesting to see a historical chart of their prices. I assume the shipping costs would make up a decent chunk of their price, though.
End to end encrypted implies encrypted at rest. Maybe you're thinking they meant "encrypted in transit"?
What you describe is class warfare of mass workers and elite. I would say high performers are also more easy to switch to another place, and more importantly, they may/should have stronger morals to not give in to company demands, make some temporary sacrifices, and generally to do the right thing. That's how a healthy society should function.

Dang, very sincerely, I don't want an argument either.

The through line is the following:

There appears to be a cohort of posters who are heavily into the DEI philosophies for a plurality of reasons. This mirrors the goings on in various orgs and the rest of society.

It is in full display on the recent Google/Gemini threads for example. Off the charts gaslighting, name calling, and brigadiering. It appears as if you turn a blind eye to it or they learned to walk a very fine line and stay within your guidelines (following the letters, not the spirit of).

Imagine a certain type of bully in class who hits you and gets you into trouble with the teacher, plays innocent, and then mimes at you with a shit eating grin behind the teachers back as you are getting lectured.

Are you stretched so thin that you perhaps missed the intensity of this growing phenomenon? I can understand that.

If you can acknowledge that this is a real problem what is your attitude towards moderating it long term?

Many feel unfairly reprimanded by you for calling it out. You need to be aware of this situation and we all need to be able to discuss it in the open without the threads getting disappeared.

Otherwise tensions run high and you play whackamole with flustered posters and miss the forest for the trees.

Hi, I'm a backend-focused generalist software engineer. I've worked remotely for over 10 years at startups writing backends and frontends (web and desktop), designing architectures and performing DevOps tasks.
I'm a founder, so I also have some experience with product and marketing, and I'm able to understand business impacts of development work.

I prefer working in a high-trust environment. If your company is making a positive impact, developing free and open-source software or has a great culture, I would consider it a plus.
The ventilation within the sauna is actually more effective the greater the temperature gradient between the entering low-CO2, cold air and the stale, hot air in the sauna. You want the entering air "falling" on the stove because it's colder i.e. denser than the surrounding air. It then heats up and mixes with the hot air in the sauna.

That being said, almost any real implementation in a cold climate place like Finland would have a heat exchanger at the building level for a mechanized ventilation system. It's of course still not 100% efficient so the circulation system within the sauna still works.

Where did I say anything about a conspiracy theory? Corporations care about their profits and shareholders, not on promoting any kind of societal values like family and children. This has nothing to do with a group conspiring in a smoky room. An entity pursuing its interests is not a conspiracy.

Honestly if your immediate jump is to accuse someone of conspiracy theory thinking, this isn’t a conversation worth having, because you’re not willing to think slightly deeper about the situation.
Are you really asking me to cite classified operations?

And the fact that subsequent Executive Orders explicitly loosened the reigns on intelligence collection (and assassination with respect to "terrorists") indicates that yes, the original orders did restrict intelligence operations.

The best decision for me is still to buy synology and store everything locally on Synology photos. No subscription, expandable storage, and full privacy. It is 100% worth the extra $ if you plan on subscribing for a loong time anyway
It's not the total user count, but the flattening of different groups that didn't need and frankly didn't ask to be constantly smushed together:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context_collapse

In real life interaction happens in short term and long term physical and social bubbles where the way you act and present information naturally takes into consideration the people you're interacting with. How you talk to a customer is different from how you talk to to your friend, is different from how you talk to your partner, is different from how you talk to your boss, and is different from how you talk when all four relationships are in one conversation together.

On the Internet— and basically only on the Internet— you'll say something meant for your knitting discussion group, and then Rocky, Steve, Gwen, and Stacy from the guitar, farming, volcanology, and motorcycle communities will butt in and take offence— because the geniuses in charge of the platform have decided that human progress is best measured in terms of how many people they can blindly jam into the same room at once.
I think your chosen genre is among the easier ones to get things to work. If you had good artists at your disposal, you could fairly easily build a clone of the classic Monkey Island on a modern engine.

Great artwork feels like something impossible to deliver, but artists think exactly the same about code. I say this after witnessing how quickly one of my friends creates great looking art while being impressed by some trivially easy programming feats.
tldr: place air inlet above the heat (B); air outlet on the other side at the floor (D). See figure:

This ensures: 1) quick heat up of fresh air 2) vertically uniform heat 3) creation of better steam
> The trouble with oral agreements then become determining what is in the oral agreement, after the fact.

Yes, except for the narrow situations where writing is legally required for a contract, the point of a written contract document is not that it is necessary to create a contract but that it is valuable in the event of a dispute as evidence of what the parties actually agreed to.

Determining that an oral agreement existed and what the terms were is an evidence problem.
Weird how people who anonymously comment on behalf of tech bosses claim "pay-per-performance" policies while most high-performing developers report it being easier to get a raise by being poached than within their extant tenure
I know I am really going against the grain here (although probably not with the OP) but I find the UX/UI of Discord absolutely _infuriating_. I resist using it whenever I can but when I can resist it no longer I find myself having to relearn everything I know about the internet from scratch to the simplest things. I don’t know what it is about it that makes me feel this way. It’s quite odd.
the irony is that temperance did (and obviously didn't) work. It reduced levels of alcoholism, increased women's safety, decreased domestic violence, increased health, increased the average family's wealth and increased workers productivity.

Obviously and needless to say it also increased organized crime too, and regular people hated it, etc etc, but in terms of what it set out to do, it worked!
> The main problem with Discord, to me, is that in any popular project, you have about 15 seconds for the right person to read your message before emojis push it off the screen.

It's like... this defines the issue.

I don't see why this point isn't always mentioned front and center when it comes to discussion of Discord as a help vector. It's transient. It's ephemeral.

Forum posts persist, they're asynchronous. People visit forums and catch up, it's considered acceptable to reply to a post that's a couple of weeks old. Yes, you shouldn't necro a thread from a year ago but forums are designed for casual access which is always going to be the majority of a userbase. You can drop in and help as and when it suits you. If you get abused or a toxic reply, there's a good chance you might not even see it because the admin will clean it up before you log in again.

They're searchable and open.

Compared to that, everything about discord appears, to me, to make it completely unsuitable as a support platform. I've tried a few times to use some subreddit discords and they're just bizarrely fast-moving with multiple channels, memes and stuff popping up all over the place - I fail to see how you can get any real value out of that. It's hugely interactive and feels like - to use a very old metaphor - having a boxing match with your computer in which you're constantly ducking stuff being thrown at you. It's a bit exhausting.

It seems... discord, like tiktok, is something you do - it's a two-way street. You use discord, you install the app, the app pings you up when _it_ wants to and you respond to the app, which is a really unhealthy way to interact with technology, having an app endlessly jerking your chain.

Forums, on the other hand are a passive place _you_ visit when _you_ want to - which is a much more human-centric way to interact with technology.
I'm genuinely intrigued!

Hey Franky47, glad to see our latest discussion still on-going on the edge semantics!
Most languages with OOP also do modules, all the way back Simula and Smalltalk started to influence Mesa/Modula-2 derived languages.

Additionally in a somewhat naive ways, classes can be seen as extensible modules, which in the presence of generics is less required as in languages that don't support them.

When using something like Standard ML functors, classes aren't really needed.
I think it's more "between the model weights". The data points do inform the weights in a way that I'm not qualified to explain, but the model doesn't actually know anything about the data anymore once it's trained.
Agreed.

I find some (little) value in getting throwaway code done.

What is useful is asking chatgpt instead of googling and then checking the results - which feels like faster googling, i.e. it's a familiar process, just streamlined.

What I find useful and new is the ability to do a quick occasional consult on a tool or on what code does,

e.g.:

I thought a makefile should be reading something from an environment variable - it wasn't - so I had this quick chat:

ChatGPT 3.5

User:
Hi again

:wave:

as usual I like terse replies

lets understand makefiles

ChatGPT:

:wave: Sure, makefiles are used for building and managing projects...

>8-------redacted non-terse makefile summary

User:

What does this mean/do?

```Makefile
$(eval TERRAFORM_VERSION:=1.4.5)
```

ChatGPT:

In this Makefile snippet, the $(eval ...) function is used to evaluate the expression and set the variable TERRAFORM_VERSION to the value 1.4.5. The eval function in a Makefile is a way to perform variable assignments dynamically during the execution of the Makefile.

So, after this line is executed, TERRAFORM_VERSION will be defined with the value 1.4.5. This can be useful for specifying and managing the version numbers or other variables in a Makefile, allowing for more flexibility and easy updates.

User:

so 1.4.5 is constant - it doesn't look at the environment variable?

ChatGPT:

Yes, that's correct. In the given Makefile snippet, the TERRAFORM_VERSION is explicitly set to the constant value 1.4.5. It doesn't dynamically look at the environment variable or any other external source; rather, it directly assigns the specified value to the variable during the evaluation of the Makefile. If you want to make it dynamic and read from an environment variable, you would use a different approach.
> And, unfortunately shell has become the norm in CI/CD environments, pipelines etc.

A pipeline which relies on shell is not worth using, tbh. That's how much shell sucks.
The more I think about this the less I understand what the employees were trying to accomplish. Let's say that somehow they somehow get the government (whichever level of it) to force Google to sit at the table with them.

The union states their terms. Google just says 'no'.

"Uh.. then we'll all quit!"

"ok"

I guess they could go on a strike so Google would still be on the hook for paying them? A strike has to be disruptive to the company to have any effect though... they'd all just be made redundant and let go anyway.

Seems to me like they didn't really have a viable end game.
This claims 1 and -1 is confusing, then proceeds to use the confusion. Why not use the language of the problem domain?

The rules are unambiguous. An increase in assets are a DR, increase in liabilities a CR, in income a CR, in expenses a DR, in owners equity a CR.

Decreases the opposite.

Using 1 and -1 is nonsensical because their meaning in mathematics is fixed, while as shown by the rules above, in accounting DR/CR meanings change.

So a couple of example journal entries…

Product sale for cash
Sales CR 100
Bank DR 100

Payment of rent
Rent DR 50
Bank CR 50

Sale for cash where tax collected and owed
Income CR 70
Tax Payable CR 30
Bank DR 100

Monthly petty cash tin entry
Postage DR 5
Accounts receivable DR 20 (loan to John)
Transport DR 15 (taxi Paul)
Bank CR 40

Note that your bank statement is from the banks perspective. When you put money into the bank it is a CR because it is increase in the banks liability.

Is this too hard to model? I suggest not?
Yes, they are usability issues, if I can't trust the software and need to evaluate every step it makes, because it might do something against my interests. That's quite the cognitive overload.

I'm not saying that it's strictly worse or the same as with FOSS software. Just a different tradeoff.
I thought so too until I bought a TV ~1.5years ago and regretted having bought a sound system as it added hardly any benefit (and it wasn't a cheap or low quality sound system either).

ok, but what's your threat model for this? great you can tie service versions to each other, but they are just proxies.

I believe OP's point was that any shell script complex enough to require debugging should not be a shell script any more.
When writing technical articles it is probably best to write as simply as possible, especially as you might have to have many technical terms in the article which will limit understanding for non experts, also English is not this guy's first language I'm guessing?
While people keep using Ada for ranged types examples, this was already present in Pascal and Modula-2.

type Age = [0..150];

It is a pity that has taken so many years for people to start appreciating type driven design.

Interesting. Completely clueless in this domain.. is the wording of "returning energy back to the system" reflect reality? Is that because I was out of sync or because of the previous unmet demand? Or is this just fundamentally how it all works?
I bought LFP batteries from Ali Baba just a couple of months ago. 100ah 3.2v x8 to boost my 100ah 12v to 300ah. Cell prices were about 60% of what they were in August, and curiously smaller in volume.
It's ok to use Discord for pragmatic reasons. But please don't make it the only, or the "official" one.
Project Zero is not defensive. Infosec Twitter has both sides.

I do agree with you that defense is a large part of the industry. My perspective is even that most organizations are looking for “defense” roles. The field is very wide (e.g., folks working on cryptography to sec ops).
> All other microservice architectures didn’t solve for requirements, they solved for organisational inefficiencies, misalignments, mismanagement, and - in no small part - ego.

Be developed, maintained, and operated by the real organization that exists and not an ideal organization which doesn't is, in fact, usually a practical if not a theoretical requirement, and its usually easier to adapt architecture than to adapt organization.

The fission events produce a high proportion of fast neutrons. The fission cross-section, ie chance of inducing a fission event when struck by a neutron, depends on the speed of the incoming neutron, and is smaller for the faster neutrons than for slower neutrons.

edit: I should note there's a sweetspot, as the neutrons have to have enough speed to overcome the repulsive force in order to enter the nucleus. Thus the cross-section has a maximum at some energy (speed), and it varies a lot between elements and isotopes.
Not GP, but I think the biggest flaw in XMPP is that doesn't define a reasonable baseline for what features need to be supported. XMPP has extensions, but you can't really be sure that all clients and servers implement them all. This is especially important when you want to use end-to-end message encryption, where both parties definitely need to support the same modern standards.

I wouldn't mind if XMPP became more successful again. But for that to happen it needs to move some XEPs into the core protocol.
Also to remember is that amount of moisture added in usual sauna session is not insignificant. Throwing at least couple of litres of water on stove is entirely normal in addition to whatever is perspired.

Handling this level of possible condensation might need additional considerations.
No, I have no particular attachment to any of those people or ideas. But when I post a related link because it’s interesting and others may like reading it, and the top comment is an anti-intellectual tirade by someone that clearly doesn’t know what they’re talking about, then yeah, that annoys me.

You seem pretty set in your uninformed ways, so I’m not sure there’s much else to say here, other than: the SEP is a world-class encyclopedia of reputable scholars that have thought about this much more than you have. Try reading a paper sometime.

You're welcome to your opinions, but just know that many people happily using XMPP disagree with you.

As a replacement for Discord? I think it depends on the community, but it's true we don't have anything remarkably equivalent to Discord that I'd recommend right now. That's open to change, though.

> The author also gives specific examples of why a service mesh is useful and in what scenarios it shines.

The author's entire point was money which is weird as it is peanuts compared to the DevOps salary of people needed to work with this complex setup. Unless you are in a startup and good in tech, in which case service mesh doesn't make a lot of sense. Why do you need encryption or metrics collection above ingress. Nginx does a good enough job for metrics.
The puzzle was fun, thanks.
> No integers that I learned about in math class work like that.

Did you learn about modular arithmetic in math class?

> The only two non-messy well-defined behaviours are 1) bignums by default like in Python, but not suitable for a low level language like Rust; or, 2) trap on overflow, like Ada is supposed to do though it is usually shut off by a pragma. Both of those have significant runtime cost.

No, they're not the only "non-messy" behaviors. An example of where wraparound is the desired behavior is computing hash functions. An example of where saturating arithmetic is the desired behavior is processing audio samples.

Well, what is the purpose of an auditor then in this context? Genuine question. Not my world.
