I think true innovation here would be forgoing a centralised package registry and just using good old file systems. Go modules have the the right idea, pull a package from a server which responds to basic HTTP requests or even a file system. If you want some smart searching capability, or generated docs then create a proxy which packages are downloaded through which allows you to index them.

Just take things back to basics. You shouldn't have to publish a package on some centralised registry, you should just be able to import a package from anywhere.
So if you're living in a multi-storey apartment block in a place where there are periods of rain, cold and darkness, naturally your routine will not be conductive of spending lots of time outdoors. What's the plan B?

Sure, if you live in Australia with a tiny population living in own houses (while they can still afford those), they risk UV-burns more than myopia. But that doesn't scale that great.
Such a system would be built on orders of the state and it would not be publicly or widely advertised, esp. in mainland China. Russia, for instance, has built SORM (deep packet introspection of the ISP traffic at the nationwide scale) – to monitor all internet activities of its citizens (on demand, not constantly), and its technical architecture is not widely known.

Having a direct feed of videos being uploaded from the user's device is also advantageous as the higher resolution of the original video will provide more details before it is recomompressed for long term storage in a smaller resolution. Most importantly, Instagram and Twitter won't allow uncontrolled access to the content they host whereas a Chinese company simply does not have a choice and has to serve the content up on its state demands.

Until proven otherwise, it is safer to project that such a system exists.
When the defense industry funds things they tend to go for architectures without a single point of failure and have the resources to create new things if the existing things are insufficient or adversarial. DARPA funding created the internet etc.

Meanwhile if you were to get the defense industry to not use your product, they're not going to go out of business or do less of whatever you didn't like. They're going to bring the same money to someone like Oracle or Microsoft with no qualms about taking it -- or bring even more money to them, which is your tax money, as those companies charge quite a lot.

This makes me suspicious that the people agitating for "don't take their money" are being subtly or not so subtly encouraged to do so by the people who want to take their money instead. After all, the historical norm is the opposite. Not just TCP/IP but Tor and SELinux and microprocessors and, considering that AT&T has long been a major defense contractor, transistors and lasers and solar panels and C and all the rest of it. Are the same people who want to refuse their money also inclined to refuse all of the other things it paid for?

Would we be better off if the University of California never took a Unix license or created BSD because of where it came from?

Is your goal to support the idea or not? Universal acceptance of a moral perspective throughout history would typically be considered justification to continue accepting that perspective.

Unless of course a new angle was provided that called into question said perspective. Which you have not done here.
> Eg, if someone pulls a gun on you, you may think you have no free will. However, if you have a gun of your own, you have a different set of options. Similarly, if you are a trained martial artist or hostage negotiator, you will evaluate your options differently - you have more options.

In movies. In real life, 99% of the time if someone pulls a gun on you in close range with the intent of harming you before you have your gun pointing at them, then you are going to be harmed and your martial arts or gun is going to be useless.

>I sometimes get upset when I see that every privacy and safety law is written to protect only US citizens,

Huh? Where did you get this idea? The GPDR in the EU isn't a US law, it's an EU law to protect EU citizens.

The US government really doesn't do much to protect the privacy of US citizens, certainly nothing at the level of the EU's laws.

Fellow Melbourne (though originally from Asia) IT professional here. I too have struggled with AU IT industry a lot since arriving here 10 years ago. AU is a service-driven economy and IT market reflects it i.e. most companies don’t cares much about inventing, creating or innovating and there’s little incentive to think outside the box in this domain.
On the flip side, life is easy and as long as you’re not too aspirational or expect high level of technical aptitude from management or recruiters, adjusting is possible. I guess this may sound like a dream to some and a nightmare to others - it’s all about your perspective, objective and expectations and isn’t that different to the rest of the world (US and perhaps pockets of Asia excepted). I’ve been told it’s all about “playing the game” but have to admit that, just like the author, I find it to be a hard mental work. In addition, looking at my peers who seemingly don’t have these worries as they work in other industries, makes you question your career choices.

If you’re hungry, restless and the IT industry culture status quo shock is too great to stomach, migrating to US (managed to work across both continents for a bit of perspective) is pretty much the only option :(

You can answer all the questions with the same answer (quoted from my comment above):

> Advertising exists (..) for other people to know what you can do for them in exchange for something.

Your questions are just requiring more sophisticated answers that will all boil down to that. What you say is "unnecessary funny mascots or catchy music" is brand awareness which is still "letting other people know I exist and I can sell them stuff - I hope they look me up later or remember me when they are at the shop". The others are similar. One might have distaste for the manipulation but then your problem is with people, not advertising. A slimey sales guy does as much or more manipulation without needing to buy ads.
Well, that seems obvious ? Of course they are?
If you've booked a flight at a certain date, it's obviously because you need transportation at that date. If you cannot be transported at the right time, the transportation is in many cases no longer needed.
For instance, if I miss a conference, my need for the transportation goes to zero, and so, I should be reimbursed _AT_LEAST_ for the transportation, but I'd argue, also for the conference if that payment has already been made.
Family member and I were flying from America to Germany, having connecting flight to Czech. Our first flight departed few hours later, and during the flight Condor cancelled our connecting flight because we wouldnt have enough time to transfer. We actually sprinted across the airport and made it to an open gate, but our tickets wouldnt work, all while watching people from other flights board normally.

We were directed to their kiosk, where after 2 hours of waiting and 2 hours of explaining/negotiating we were rebooked on a flight next day, with "all our airport and contract accomodations are full, find your own one, condor will refund". Spent the night in €700/night hotel (fourth I called, first to actually had rooms).

Afterwards we sent all info/invoices throug mail. First reply: we refund your expenses, but not flight compensation ($600 per person), because the delay was not our fault, the delay was less than 4(6?) hours, and (despite the flight landing in EU, which is all it takes for EU legislation to apply) the flight is not covered by EU legislation, because it originated from outside EU.

Sent extempt from law saying they have to pay us, or we will involve layers. Next email said they will issue full requested refund (which they did).

So, apart from having to threaten with legal action and having to know our rights trough Condor lies, pretty good outcome.
IMHO, not lower demand but higher supply, especially with all the big tech layoffs, and so we have a glut of applicants who know enough about tech in general to make it tough to tell if they're lying about their specialized experience until after you hire them, and they're desperate to get hired because either they were laid off, or they know they're competing with all the people who were, so they're more likely to take a job they're not really qualified for because it takes at least 6 months to let a new hire go, and that's 6 months of rent and food, so it's an easy choice.

The first 5 years at my current job (7 years total), my team had *one* person join and leave. The past 2 years, we've had 3. No change in team leaders, style, nothing. In one case, they were just straight not doing anything. Like legitimately just not online for a whole week, except to pop into the daily standup on Friday, with their camera off and muted.

They were given a task to complete as basically a "complete this or you're out" ultimatum, and they came to me to help them with doing it because they were totally lost. I tried to give them advice, but when they saw I wasn't going to do it for them they just went AWOL, and quit the next week.

I'm lazy AF, and that shit was *wild*.
I am saying this as the "other". I am Russian (though not living in the country anymore). My country has started an unforgivable war of aggression. It is my imperative to do anything I can to remedy this.

My humble perspective, having gone through that, is that young men have it very hard to find their value. As a young man, after you've been past your teenage years young men don't get the "kid's pity" and unconditional love anymore. You become only as useful as the things you do, and what can you do as a young man? Specially if you haven't really grown up with a supportive father you end up in a limbo where you're not yet a man but nobody really tells you how to be a man. Equally women generally don't find men trying to figure things out very attractive. It is, then, easier to feel better with yourself when you're on your 30s and you are lucky enough to have found a way to figure things out by yourself. Then and only then you suddenly become "useful", attractive to women and respected by other men. Getting through the first stage without falling into suicide or hedonism is the hardest part.
I don't see how "secure by design" tech would solve the TikTok problem. TikTok isn't hacking people's devices, it's tracking them and giving them disinformation and propaganda. Secure code isn't going to fix those problems; the only way to fix them is to simply not exchange data with tiktok.com.
If you want to live (and prosper), you can't put everyone's interests and morals at the same level as yours. There needs to be some self perseverance.

Hi Justin

We have a comparison page with OLM here: https://glasskube.dev/docs/comparisons/olm/

Compared to Helm v2 the client doesn't talk to the controller (server) component directly, we only interact via the Kubernetes API and everything is stored in CRs.

A complete architecture Diagram can be found in our docs: https://glasskube.dev/docs/

Do you have any specifc questions or concerns? Are you facing any challenges in working with packages in Kubernetes? Also happy to jump on quick call. Feel free to contact me via LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pmigat/

It wasn't, that's exactly what you did, albeit not with types, but by removing redundancies from the state. It's the same reason why normalizing relational databases is a good idea.
One other advantage of RC that I don't think you've brought up yet, is that you know exactly when the work to free M objects will take place.

> So its aggressive economic politics now if country A buy less from country B, by making the stuff it needs itself? That doesn't compute.

Yes it is. The problem with modern manufacturing (and services to lesser extent) is not to build something, but find a market for it.

> Sure, they can do that. Only, given that the EU is their most important trading partner, and forcing companies out would probably spiral China into a recession, destroying decades worth of economic growth in the process, I somewhat doubt that China is willing to shoot itself in the foot just to throw a tantrum.

China is already doing all sort of protectionist practices. And West does not retaliate. Furthermore, it plays along to make a quick buck in massive Chinese market.

Do you want what would send China into a recession for sure? Chinese economy is export-driven. If West limited import from China (effectively capping Chinese export), that'd do a lot of damage to China. And China knows that very well.

why are people surprised they use playwright? how do they imagine a lam would work? in the end an "action" would always have to come as a computer command, be it an api call, or function call generation, an "action" is code to be executed. transformers generate tokens and only tokens, it is up to you to decide how you want the flow of tokens to be. i find the use of playwright quite clever, you could use puppeteer and make it write scripts for web browsing as well, but in the end an action will always come back to computer code, written as text as a human would do. the fact they use playwright does not imply it is not generative ai, on the contrary it is a clever way of showcasing how to configure a transformer to bypass an api lock-in such as the midjourney one.

You never saw anyone move from RC to GC, because there are very few high performance pure RC implemenations to make them a first option anyway, and in most cases that requires a rewrite in another language.

Happens a lot with junction tables ime. e.g. At my last job we had three tables: user, stream, user_stream. user_stream is an N:N junction between a user and a stream

A user is free to leave and rejoin a stream, and we want to retain old data. So each user_stream has columns id, user_id, stream_id (+ others)

Issues occur when people write code like the following:

streamsService.search({
withIds: userStreams.map((stream) => stream.id),
});

The issue is easily noticed if you name the “stream” parameter “userStream” instead, but this particular footgun came up _all_ the time in code review; and it also occurred with other junction tables as well. Branded types on the various id fields completely solve this mistake at design time.
Found my answer for why thanks to the issues in latest dolphin fine-tune. They do these types of fine tunes mainly to reduce refusal rates and increase intelligence. They did the knee-jerk rerun of the same old data this time, as I suspected, just for lols to see where open-source is at.

Spoiler alert, fine-tunes won't be better until the data quality is better than meta's instruction fine-tune. Give it some weeks.

Even in the times of the Great Empires, there were always other great powers - perhaps not peers, but powerful enough to be truly independent. This era most of us grew up in where the US was this unchallenged global hegemonic power was a major outlier in history, owing exclusively to rare circumstance. That being that after the USSR suddenly collapsed, there were not only politicians in the US that wanted to be rulers of the world, but also no other powers that could even remotely compare on a technological or economic level except Japan. But Japan itself also began a rapid economic collapse just about the time that the USSR collapsed.

And now not only were these circumstances rare, but they were also inherently liminal. Technological and economic edges fade rapidly, especially in light of major population level differences. I see no reason to think China imagines they could or even wants to be anything like the US was 30 years ago. The world is returning to its more natural multipolar state, as it's more or less always been.
Sometimes I am so surprised that such a mundane regulation, a basic facility really, is seen as revolutionary in the US and implemented extremely late. I am so happy and lucky to have been born in this corner of the world

Though I‘m not sure if it will get adopted by as many people as NodeJS (and other kind-of drop-in replacements like Bun) did, I‘m really excited by the innovation that Deno brings to the JS/TS space. Particularly actually looking at the hassles that working with NodeJS currently brings and trying to find elegant solutions to that is an admirable goal. If Deno doesn‘t get adopted by many people, maybe at least some of these ideas can later find their way into other runtimes.

As anyone that has tried to publish hybrid packages that include types, a CJS and an ESM version, all the while maintaining semver and anything else can be a real hassle.
Everyone seems to have a different solution, and most of the time you end up writing a convoluted build system for your package consisting of an amalgamation of tsc, esbuild, rollup or whatever other bundler is the hot new stuff.

An article for those who want to go a little bit beyond the basic usage of OTEL SDK and understand how it works under the hood.

The post quickly touches on these topics:

- History and the idea of OpenTelemetry
- Distributed traces & spans. How span collection happens on the service side
- Baggage & trace ctx propagation
- Metrics collection. Views & aggregations. Metrics readers
- OTEL Logging integration
- Semantic conventions and why that is important

Answer the questions.. or just regurgitate headlines with a skin deep understanding of the topic, that will get you far indeed.

As a hobbyist having trained models for different use cases ranging from object detection and recognition to text completion to image generation, the best advice has consistently been to curate and annotate your dataset as perfectly as you can before worrying about anything else.

A small, well-curated, well-annotated dataset will always be orders of magnitude better than a gigantic one with even a tiny percentage of mislabeled features or bad/wrong data. Hyperparameters and such can be fiddled with once you know you are on the right the track and in the scheme of things are relatively minor for most purposes.

Of course, this advice gets routinely ignored as people spend countless hours fussing over how to set certain flags and grabbing as much data as possible, then carelessly throwing it all together and training it. Then, wondering why the model does things they don't want, they go back to messing with the parameters again.

It is a giant pain in the ass but you have to spend the time sitting in front of the screen going through the data and removing things and tagging things and making sure that the details are right. This is really what makes the good models good and the rest mediocre.
