Yes, surprised this hasn't hit the top of Hacker News and instead gone un-noticed. If Google did delete the account, this is massive.

Large financial pension fund with advertised $124 billion in funds under management so not some toy cat gif startup has account deleted accidentally by Google. That can very easily wipe out a company using cloud as cloud vendors advertise you to. From the article it sounds like they are lucky they had offsite backups but still potential for data loss and restoring offsite backups likely a task in itself.

People trust the forge all the time; if someone wants to mess with github (say, feed a different repo for everyone except developers using whatever it is they usually interact with the git with (ssh or their IP or whatever), it'd take a while to notice -- if they do that for existing releases archives distros might notice but for a new tag? I'll bet no-one sees it)

From a pure git perspective, notes are normal objects so if everyone fetches the notes regularly they'll notice if they're tempered with just like regular commits iirc. I think you can add notes after the fact but not modify what's there?

Hey I'm no Trump fan but you're doing the same thing. Looking at the whole chart it clearly never crashed. There was a blip up for like one day that you conveniently picked as your high point and a day or so of driving price but overall given its a meme stock the price generally stayed about the same. Crash I'd define personally as 90% price collapse with no bounce back. What I see in the chart I'd call a significant short term decline after being overbought.

If we assume a quarter is 3 months, then there are 60 work days in a quarter. 39/60 is 65% in office. That basically means Dell employees have to be in office 4 out of 5 times a week with a little leeway here and there.

> I'm puzzled why anyone would incorporate code on trust.

Because almost every programmer these days has learned by a route that relies on incorporating code on trust. E.g. using someone else's compiler.

The snag there is that one can rarely verify test coverage is sufficient.

But it is not the same. ChatGPT delivers completely untested code. Not even syntax-checked in my case. Would you accept such code from any human?

> Trust doesn't enter into it. Clear and workable solutions do

Plenty of clear and workable solutions are discovered unsafe. I suspect that's much more likely when the code comes from a source such as ChatGPT that delivers code in a completely untested state.

Oh yeah, every new-comer to the tech world thinks like this, and 99.99% of them don't get any further "ahead" in life than the rest of us. In fact, many end up further behind.
Adding transitive dependencies might be tricker, because then you can't tell what of your direct dependencies to upgrade.

It might be more useful to assign each direct dependency's transitives to it, and then you can do maths to figure out whether updating a direct dependency actually has an effect (e.g. 2 directs both with a 50 lib year dependency aren't worth upgrading unless you upgrade both of them.)
Adding complexity to a late project makes it later and less maintainable.

Because the rainforest is important in regulating global temperature and oxygen production, much more so than the (probable) temperate climate forests you are from.

You are living in a post destruction area, with new forests planted to supplement the destruction that was there before. Most of these forests aren't more than 70 years old, that's about when we finally made an effort to fix how badly we totally fucked up and why people needed clean air to not die from lung cancer (among other things). The loss of biodiversity, air quality, etc. already occurred. You are a survivor. What's more, your survival was in part supported by the air quality of other virgin forests further away from you that weren't yet cut down. But now that they are being cut down, there's less left to support you.

In short, you're asking yourself why you shouldn't shoot yourself in the foot again, because you managed to survive the first shot and it looks to you like it healed just fine (it didn't).

Back then I thought it was ahead of its time, launched too early and others would later come up with a similar product. But nobody did. Maybe was just too hard to use. Or only useful for power users.
A couple generous interpretations:

Sometimes "throwaway work" is still worth doing. Maybe you can spend one month hacking an important feature into the old architecture, to deliver it early while investing 6+ months of work into The Right Way. Deprecating the first version is like dropping a rocket stage.

Adding architectural complexity leads to growth in developer headcount. This requires more support staff, and more communication complexity. The growth follows a superlinear trend, as does the fuel requirement for larger rockets.
Even if you could, why would you? It'd be the same to, say, fork a projectX to myprojectX and say you're at the latest version.

You are the one that has an advantage to know you're behind, not someone else.
Your definition would exclude basically every crash other than https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall_Street_Crash_of_1929, which entailed a “89.2% loss for the index”. Even then, it came back eventually.

When the "flash crash" happened in 2010 it was a 9% drop. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_flash_crash

$22 is half the average for the months preceding the drop, and 1/3 the peak, with a sustained drop for more than two weeks straight. That’d be called a crash by pretty much anyone.

Cool idea, Roland. I like it, though receiving a return on your investment, basically your time and one-time payment, only after 100 days seems a little bit excessive. Do you think it is possible to get at least some kind of short summary after certain milestones/time passed, like every week?
I wouldn't eat beef if it was raised in those conditions but it doesn't reflect the reality of most British beef rearing operations. Most British beef is fed predominantly a forage based diet, outside in pasture except during the winter months and perhaps during the period before slaughter where they are flattened up.
(And besides - if Randall f*ing Munroe contacted a few people, who were experts at $Foo, $Bar or $Baz, with "I've got this really cool idea, but I'd need some help..." - how hard would it be for him to get some "yes" answers?)

The fortune 500 where I use to work, the only pay raises you got were like Cost of Living, based upon Ave Pay for your job, and those raises were always around 1%. People who I know who got promoted did not get any raises due to pay overlap in the bands. All you got was more stress on a promotion.

So no promotions for working remote ? Sounds good to me.
I’m no expert, but the beef cows I saw in Brazil were a noticeably different breed than the ones I see in the US.
I see it differently: when strength along all axes matters, you no longer need to take more time to carefully design and orient your print to overcome the strength limitations of FDM printing, or overbuild the part on the Z axis and waste filament. My design time is more important than printing time.

Most people are not printing non-stop or printing a functional part on a deadline, so I think it absolutely changes the argument when they need the extra strength.

LibreOffice exists, doesn't it? In particular, Calc: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice_Calc

There's also a variety of online offerings, yet someone every single one of them isn't sued into oblivion.

Note: I can personally only endorse LibreOffice, but either way, there's many similar products and that's not necessarily a bad thing either.
Ironic to see this considering planes could land and takeoff by themselves since 60's and the only reason why it's not all of them that can do this is because of greed.
That's because for a great many purposes, doing things the way everyone else does them is an extremely big benefit.

If your operating system uses UTC, your logging library uses UTC, your SSL cert issuer uses UTC, your TOTP tokens use UTC, your NTP client uses UTC, your e-mail headers use UTC, your string formatter uses UTC, your serialised data parsing libraries use UTC, everyone who sends you data uses UTC, and everyone you send data to wants to receive UTC - why swim against the current?

How do I know this? Because I've tried it. Let me assure you, for every bug you avoid using TAI, you'll experience 500 bugs due to UTC/TAI confusion.
I agree, but an actual RIF would probably be less devastating to morale.
I don't think promotion is a right of any kind - there are many jobs where that's it and you're never promoted. It would actually be ridiculous (though not unexpected for some places) to have laws related to promotion.

That said, it's really dumb corporate policy, it basically telling people to do the minimum or leave.

To add to other responses here, Temporal doesn't take over the default event loop in general (and users still use it for clients and activities and such). Temporal workflows must be deterministic and durable which means they are guaranteed to run and are resumable on other machines. Therefore Temporal workflows specifically operate on a custom event loop implementation. It doesn't affect anything outside the workflow.

> Then "infra" would be under "IT" in such kind of setups?

Depends what you mean by "infra".

The team that would manage your DC (either self managed or CoLo) would generally be under the CFO or COO (who will generally report to CFO), and as such that team would fall into the Finance procurement bucket.

Even if R&D has budget for multiple racks in your DC, it will still cost money on the Finance&IT side of the house to staff people to maintain it and manage it.

This model is very clunky, because procurement takes time, and this lack of nimbleness can drastically affect delivery roadmaps.

CFOs also don't like this model as much, because their job is to manage cash flow, keep books and accounts ready for audits, build financial projections, etc and time consuming work like managing IT procurement (while critical) is a major slog.

The model you mentioned is more common now (Platform/Infra team acting as an interface w/ Eng), but even they would offload DC and CoLo management to the CorpIT team.
> LLMs are great at giving a template or code block for specific use case and then I use it after understanding,

I suspect the typical ChatGPT user is using it for code that's beyond his ability to write. That being the whole point of his using it.

It follows that such code is likely beyond his ability to understand. But worse, beyond his ability to understand he doesn't understand it.

You don't need to read the full study, just the summary paragraphs at the beginning.

>Context

They already knew going into the study that the vaccine caused myocarditis.

>Objective

To do a biopsy and see if they can find anything abnormal about this type of myocarditis

>Design

They're doing an autopsy of two teenage boys who died shortly after taking the shot

>Results

This form of myocarditis is abnormal. Its the result of heart injury caused by a family of neurotransmitters called catecholamines.

>Conclusions

The mechanism of injury was likely due to a cytokine storm, in which the body kept producing cytokines and catecholamines in a feedback loop. Knowing how to treat cytokine storms could prevent future deaths.
I gotta say, given the choice between a potential promotion and continuing to live a significantly happier life as a remote worker, I’d easily choose the latter.
There are some things that are more compilcated, e.g. you need to bring your own libraries for font support and input methods and rasterization and so on, and you need to handle hotplugged input devices and such. But protocol-wise it’s not really more conplicated, no.
I'm a front-end dev and I refuse to apply this effect for this reason. Even on high end laptops it uses way too much power and starts blasting the fans.
Yeah this is unlikely to be included. It's probably more "if your contract is office based, we won't fire you for working remote but technically you're breaking your contract right now through inertia, so we can count that as a reason to not promote you."
Because most people don’t have an HPC background, aren’t familiar with parquet internals, don’t know how to make their language stream data instead of buffering it all in memory, have slow internet connections at home, are running out of disk space on their laptops, and only have 4 GB of ram to work with after Chrome and Slack take up the other 12 GB.

15 GB is a real drag to do anything with. So it’s a real pain when someone says “I’ll just give you 1 TB worth of parquet in S3”, the equivalent of dropping a billion dollars on someone’s doorstep in $1 bills.
The analogy seems more clear to me in IT operations.

Let’s say we have one server running our stuff, and it’s too slow.

One option is, upgrade the CPUs or add more RAM. This seems analogous to “build a bigger engine” in your example. There’s no added complexity (well, mostly, maybe you run into NUMA issues or something).

But some kinds of upgrades are more costly or complex than they appear on the surface.

If we want to add 1 TB of usable storage space, at the physical level that means multiple drives for redundancy, keeping multiple copies of the data for backup, keeping replicated copies of data that are ready to turn on at any moment, and so on. So in the developer’s mind we think “add a single 1 TB drive”, but in reality it might take adding 15-20 drives in numerous servers to accomplish this.

The same thing happens when going from a single physical server to multiple. With a single server you can scale vertically. But horizontal scaling is a different type of complexity, now having to think not only about server redundancy, but redundancy at the network layer, now you need redundant network switches, and it all needs to be configured right to handle any part in the communication path failing (server down, server network card down, server network card port down, bad network cable, network switch down, network switch port down), and all of those require some configuration and protocols, and maybe you’re not familiar with VRRP or LACP on the network switches and also how those interact with VMware load balancing and failover, so now you need a VMware person and a Cisco person and that’s not even considering how you handle split brain scenarios where both servers are still running but can’t talk to each other due to a network partition.

And that’s all a very different kind of upgrade than slapping more RAM sticks in the server and keep rolling.
