TL;DR: managed runners by construction constitute a major ongoing infosec liability.

A managed runner means not only entrusting a third party with your code but also typically providing it with enough data/network connectivity to make testing/validation feasible as a part of the build process. While this is doable per se, it introduces multiple major failure modes outside of data owners' control.

Failure scenario (hypothetical): you hydrate your test DB using live data; you store it in a dedicated secure S3 bucket, which you make accessible for the build process. Now the managed runner organization gets hacked because making resilient infra is hard, and the attackers intercept the S3 credentials used by your build process. Boom! Your live data is now at the mercy of the attackers.
San Francisco progressives "de-tracked" Lowell High School a couple of years ago.

That was quickly reversed, and I believe all the relevant school-board members were resoundingly voted out. Go Indians!

"Progressives" have completely lost the thread. YES, racism created an unequal society, and much racism and inequality persist to this day. AND the answer is not to throw out all standards. Particularly at a school like Lowell, which was the best chance for a POOR smart kid to get a great education. The rich kids already go to Lick or University or wherever.
An interesting article.

Given it applies to "A high-end user's connection speed" I am dubious as to the applicability to everyone else - say the bottom 20% of society for example - and so I am most doubtful of the article's "everyone will have 10Gbit" claim.

Maybe "everyone" has a stricter definition than I think.

But as someone who has literally grown up alongside PC's - your link gives confidence to look forward to the crazy ahead. :-)

The big story in first-world politics in the next 50 years is finding a way to stop the slippage in quality of life for the bottom 90%. No amount of 12% paper GDP growth, cheaper tech products, or dousing the economy in credit will paper over this problem forever. It might not even be about "liberalize the economy to restart growth"-- it could come from massive tax-and-spend projects (the UK has plenty of crumbling infrastructure to deal with) that actually get real salaries rising.

Let's be real here, 10 bucks is what you spend on a not even very great sandwhich. It's not insane to pay that for what is one of the more important tools in modern life.

Its 10 bucks. For a tool that searches the sum of human knowledge. Your ancestors would be ashamed.
One pattern that I have noticed amoungst people who work in the "letters" (writing, editing, publishing, journalism, etc.): Since their income is relatively very low for their highly skilled work (it usually requires a university degree), they cannot compete on social status (read: money/wealth). (Leave aside the many people in letters who come from a wealthy family; you will meet many of these people in Global Alpha cities, like London, NYC, Tokyo, etc.) Instead, they create a navel gazing world of intellectual status where they try to "read more than everyone else" and "have a strong opinion about everything". Thus, their peers "feel behind". I think this also well explains why the people in the letters, especially journalists, think Twitter is "so important". It is not. It is tiny echo-chamber in a massive online world.

I want to be very clear about what I wrote above: I am not criticizing the quality of their work. There are plenty of people in the letters who annoy me to no end with their navel gazing, but produce fantastic work. Please keep these two separate!

This is grandstanding, there's no way to enforce how people or machines dispose with the data you put on the Internet. No enforcement mechanism, no chain of responsibility. It's literally FREE data. And this extends to photographs, drawings, music, code, prose, poetry, and all of the human generated content which IS being used by everybody from search engines (Google never asks permission) to AI companies, to cyber criminals and overreaching security theater weirdos in government. All of them can do whatever they like with whatever they find.

Don't like it? Don't put your data on the Internet, or use a mobile device near a conversation you'd rather keep private. No amount of regulation will ever stop any of this.

>Yes sometimes people get their number stolen and are out the money for a while during an investigation

One of the main benefits of credit cards over most other forms of payment is that that isn't the case. A fraudulent transaction on a credit card ties up some of your credit limit during resolution. A fraudulent debit card transaction or personal check takes money out of your account. Of course, if you wait long enough, you may have already paid the bill containing the credit card transaction and then you're in the same boat.

> And if you were really fancy, you wrote a custom allocator that operated on that fixed-size buffer so people could “allocate” and “free” memory from the buffer.

That's still what current day allocators are.

Think of RAM as just a byte array in your favorite systems programming language. It's size is that fixed-size buffer (or, when RAM size is unknown due to hardware modularity, its size is the maximum possible and you pinky-promise not to look beyond the end).

The kernel sees all of the RAM as a fixed-size buffer, and an allocator manages what's free etc. These days, userspace processes see virtual addresses and you can think of them as all getting 2*64 bytes as their "fixed-size buffer". brk and mmap are really more hints to the kernel as to what part of the buffer you won't be needing.
I think it is more or less just an automation of what used to be a more manual process of reading from the outside in.

1. First, there are commercial models. But also, we could consider that if something specifically enables unfair use then that may deserve a look.

2. Weights are a derivative of another nature, but one that specifically enables mass production of derivatives of the same nature. Could be an important concept that simply didn’t exist until now.

3. That’s roughly my understanding, too.

4. Valid point on one hand, but consider that using LLMs is exactly substitutable for any non-fiction book or resource. If no one can sell a book, then who would write them?

That's because "aggravated identity theft" can never be the only crime you are convicted for. It is always dependent on another felony. The identity theft just adds two years on-top of whatever the other crime would've gotten you.

Here, of course the two extra years don't matter, but if you commit identity theft to steal your grandma's candies, I don't think you should be getting 30 years in prison.

It really depends on the country and its legislation. For EU there's GDPR which has very specific deadlines and specs on how to handle data regardless the end of the company. There is a designated DPO who's in charge legally of the fate of these data, so they have to provide a solution on how to ensure the correct transition/maintenance of the data for the authority.

Do you blog or keep a list? I would be nice to see what you read. I tend to only read fiction written by women. (I read enough non-fiction via the Financial Times newspaper.) As a man, it is really eye-opening to "see the other (emotional) side". Usually, the stories are much more about character development, than trying to save the world ("do something big") that I often see in fiction written by men.

> He was indicted Dec. 12, on five counts of false statement to a National Credit Union Administration insured institution and two counts of aggravated identity theft.

5 charges for a total of 30 years, so 6 years max per charge. Much more reasonable than 30 for a single one.
Strikes me (in my 40s, regularly read books and sometimes full articles in magazines) as lazy. When I understood I will not be reading all the things, and that a lot of what is written is trash (to me, anyway, given my values and sense of purpose), and that books are technology that replaced oral tradition, it became a whole lot easier to be very selective about what I read. I've started many books now that, before, I'd feel compelled to finish.

You're not happy you have to do this- why do you have to do this, again?
> He was indicted Dec. 12, on five counts of false statement to a National Credit Union Administration insured institution and two counts of aggravated identity theft.

It's actually 6 years max per false statement charge, so in total 30 years.

Coroners will list immediate, intermediate, and underlying (proximate) cause of death. In that case the immediate cause of death would be say sepsis after surgery, but the proximate cause of death is the cancer. If you are looking at cause-specific mortality I think you do include proximate causes even if it isn't the immediate cause. But like the other commenter said, I think this is factor is so small as to not be impactful.
For kicks, I gave it the URL to these comments (shortly before this post, ~30 comments). Here are the results:

Summary:

geuis: I've noticed a trend of "recipe articles" that are overly wordy when they could be more concise. I've resorted to using ChatGPT to summarize key points of important blog posts, as the authors don't seem to value their audience's attention span.

meristohm: I've become more selective about what I read as I've realized I can't consume everything. I don't feel compelled to finish books that don't interest me anymore.

msy: The problem is that much of the content is generated by language models, creating "expensive noise" rather than meaningful signal.

Terr_: The degradation of communication for the sake of advertising revenue is a market failure, as individuals struggle to control how much of their attention is taken.

bicx: I often skip to the end of articles to see if there's a coherent conclusion, and if so, I'll go back and read the body. I agree that non-fiction books in particular tend to be overly padded.

HKH2: The worst fluff is when authors use excessive analogies or anecdotes without clearly explaining what the reader should take away.

throwaway2037: Why read the full novel when you can just read the back cover or watch a short summary? People seem to value efficiency over depth these days.

steviem: I read a lot of "shitlit" or inconsequential literature, but I don't see that as better or worse than anyone else. Reading should be for enjoyment, not a target to hit.

deebosong: I respect people who read a lot, but I worry that reading 100+ books per year could become more about appearances than true engagement.

theK: How does someone manage to read 150 books per year? What's their routine and how do they avoid distractions?

harrisi: When you get in the habit of reading regularly, you can read books surprisingly quickly.

spxneo: Reading 150 books per year is impressive, but it would be tough to apply all that content to real life.

> Why would anyone put SSD at the end of a slow network attached storage device?

Far lower latency, and 2.5GbE isn't that bad if you're not already used to something faster.

SSD storage is even an improvement over 1GbE when you're working with lots of small files, or really any scenario that's substantially random access.

All modern corporations limit investor liability to the amount invested, something that did not become standard until the mid-1800s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited_Liability_Act_1855

This is a huge government support of investors. It has some societal benefits, which is why we do it, but it's often abused. The notion of "privacy" when people are taking government-supported action in the public sphere is nonsensical. If people have a legitimate purpose for trying to dodge liability and responsibility for their actions, I think having that on the public record is a minimum.

A gen3 x4 card in a gen5 x1 slot gets... gen3 x1 speed. Even though gen5 x1 has the same bandwidth as gen3 x4.

So, is there such a thing as an adapter that would plug into a fast narrow slot and provide a wide slower slot with the same overall transfer rate? Or, provide multiple slower (but still just as wide) slots from one faster slot?
Defining a new class is probably the most Ruby way to do it. There are two implementations that define a new class: rb_heap[1] and algorithms[2]. However, algorithms[2] use a Fibonacci heap, which should technically have better time complexity but is slower in practice, and the library pulls in a lot of unnecessary stuff. rb_heap is good, although I think using a symbol to specify if it's a max/min heap is a little strange.

There is something satisfying about using an array like Python. It's very straightforward and doesn't require you to convert back and forth between a queue and a array.

That's an interesting idea to use Queue. I do need random access to implement the binary queue, so I'm not sure if Queue would work.
