You only need a distributed OLTP database once you scale e.g. you have customers all over the world or if you are in a space the requires it like gaming, fin/tech, gambling, etc.... I think the reason they are gaining popularity is because the barrier to entry has been lowered both technically and financially. CockroachDB and Yugabyte for example are open sourced have a good entry point for their managed solutions and are mostly compatible with PostgreSQL. The large cloud providers are also offering solutions that let you incrementally scale to a distributed DB as you need it.

I have worked in Fintech where we needed a distributed database, as startup where we grew to the point of needing one, and am hoping to grow what I am currently working on to the point of needing one but we are not there yet.

FDA is talking out of both sides of their mouth. From their own website:

> Consumers may also see advisory statements such as “may contain [allergen] or “produced in a facility that also uses [allergen].” Such statements are not required by law and can be used to address unavoidable “cross-contact,” only if manufacturers have incorporated good manufacturing processes in their facility and have taken every precaution to avoid cross-contact that can occur when multiple foods with different allergen profiles are produced in the same facility using shared equipment or on the same production line, as the result of ineffective cleaning, or from the generation of dust or aerosols containing an allergen.

0 as a default for "no int" is tolerable, 0.0 as a default for "no float" is an absolute nightmare in any domain remotely related to math, machine learning, or data science.

We dealt with a bug that for weeks was silently corrupting the results of trials pitting the performance of various algos against each other. Because a valid response was "no reply/opt out", combined with a bug in processing the "opt out" enum, also combined with a bug in score aggregation, functions were treated like they replied "0.0" instead of "confidence = None".

It really should have defaulted NaN for missing floats.

Metaphor, but sure, quite literally they're not dogs. Very true.

From our eyes they're neglecting to follow the spirit of a policy. From their eyes, they're following it to the letter of the policy. Perspective.
This is year-on-year for Q1. If I want whatever Macs I bought in Q1 '24 to net out neutral here, I need to have bought an equal number of Macs in Q1 '23.

Per a sibling commenter, Apple did still sell Intel Macs throughout Q1 '23, so it's possible for the earlier set to have been Intel and the later to have been M-series, which we could count as the upgrades you describe. Intuitively it seems difficult to imagine very many people would have done this, but to set an upper bound we would need M-series vs. Intel share figures for Q1 '23.
Or maybe it's about the horrible crimes against humanity committed by the Sacklers?
Here's a way to help you understand. Let's say I gave you 1 million dollars to help you understand. Then would you understand? That's likely how other people started understanding the situation. Something along those lines. Something this obviously wrong, some sort of coercion or bribery or some other shady thing has got to be a part of it.
I work for a unit of about 20 people that is part of a university; structurally it is like a lot of startups I've worked at in that it has a sales function.

Many of those issues such as HR, Compliance, Risk Management, Office Space, Laptop Computers and WiFi are handled by other units of the larger organization. Unique contracts though are handled by the executive director or somebody close as I think should happen in any organization.

I have worked in many startups around that size (they'd call it a small platoon in the military) and past 20 persons you would normally need a full-time HR person and there would be CFO, COO as well as the CEO divide the other work. If you are lucky you are in a startup accelerator that gets you a swanky office. Your CEO might be out of the office more than half of the time doing investor management if the firm is doing a raise.

In a 4-5 person startup you might find one executive who handles all that but employee #4 was a secretary who does as much executive stuff that can't be done by the CEO as possible. You are very lean on office space, you WFH like Mark Benioff did back in the day and save on office space.

> This was in Nashville. He was an independent contractor they let wander the halls of the laying in ward accosting unsuspecting new parents. He bought the machine. Now he's got a steady income from this grift.

Newborn hearing screening is standard, or even mandated, in most states. This wasn't just a grifter they allowed to roam the halls. They were contracted with the person to administer the tests. It's likely it was even required by your state lawmakers:

Here is the page from the TN department of health that says all newborns should be screened before leaving the hospital or before one month of age: https://www.tn.gov/health/information-for-individuals/i/fact...

If your state is like mine, there might be a law that requires this to be offered at the hospital, along with several other newborn screens.

Newborn hearing screening isn't a scam, and the hospital may not have even had a choice about offering it due to the laws.

I've posted on here before but I'm concerned with the current 'off label' practice of using glyphosate for crop desiccation (basically spraying it on the crop prior to harvesting to kill it and dry it out sooner) when most studies of glyphosate have been for the standard use to kill weeds much earlier in the process and the lower residual levels the standard use leaves.
The local variants of map apps are leaps and bounds ahead of Google Maps at any point in the last 10 years though. And that's not due to Google being restricted.

Google is free to do what it wants in Australia, but it still sucks pretty bad.

But yeah, SK software got sabotaged by people in power unfortunately. But the software also has some high standards from locals it has to live up to.

So it's stuck in a situation where the app is quite neat, but it will be as stubborn as a mule if it needs anything to spec.
The books evidence a desire to flee but equally evidence an ineptitude, the lack of an ability to flee. Buying a ticket for an international flight is akin to making an appointment with the FBI for you to be arrested. The FBI only dreams that every fugitive first pass through inspection/x-ray before being arrested in an airport terminal ringed with security. No need to worry about a fight, weapons or a dangerous police chase. The perps have already been frisked by the FAA. If these people ever run, they won't get far.

From my limited experience, Staff+ seems to have a lot of the same responsibilities as a manager, but without the direct reports—they're both “leadership” positions and focus on long(er)-term planning, business needs, cross-team communication, and enabling others rather than doing the work themselves. Though in lieu of people management, Staff+ engineers do get to spend some time coding, but it's pretty rarely the majority of their job.

So to that extent, I think there's quite a lot in common between engineering and management tracks after a certain point, both because there's a genuine need for that, and because direct code contributions just don't scale in the same way that helping others does.

But cropping to circle/hexagon and offsetting alternate rows, with three rows of five between four of four, obviates the need for weird filler sandwiches. Then you can just tell people with other screen sizes to go away to somewhere with less perfection.
The Boox e-reader I have lets you rotate the screen in 90° increments—not sure if the Palma does too, but reading horizontally probably wouldn't be too bad.

Although at the end of the day I do most of my reading on my phone anyway, and it's surprisingly fine once you get used to it.
We didn't study the Opium Wars in history at all throughout my education, I learned about those on my own thanks to the Internet. The entire Middle East, our influence in South America, etc, none of that was covered in school, and I went to some pretty good public schools. (E.g. in High School we edited DNA of Bacteria)

For that matter, I think China was only mentioned in passing throughout my entire education. WW1 was also only mentioned very briefly (maybe a couple weeks? Archduke is shot, shit goes down) and then we spent a fair bit of time on WW2, but less than we spent on Ancient Egypt honestly. (I think we spent an entire 2 or 3 months on Ancient Egypt).

We spent a fair amount of time on the Reformation and Renaissance, ancient Greece and Rome, and US history was mostly a ~bullshit~ censored history of the founding of the US. The Washington State history classes went into some history of the local tribes, but failed to mention any of the fun details about how Seattle was founded (prostitution, drinking, Seattle literally poisoning the wells of nearby towns to force them to join Seattle to get access to clean water)

College was better, mostly US history and World History, still nothing about the far east though.

We did an excellent segment on the US Revolution in College, including the funding source behind the revolutionary war, that was very interesting.

Edit: Sex ed was pretty comprehensive, and we ended the quarter by watching Rocky Horror Picture Show, so that was fun. (The Nerd and Goth kids formed a voting block for what movie to watch. :D) I am still surprised they talked about so much about forms of contraceptives that almost no one uses (spermicidal gels and foams), but at least they properly demonstrated how to use a condom, so that was good.

For "don't smoke" the health teacher had lots of pictures of tumors.

Alcohol wasn't really talked about, but honestly in the 90s we didn't know a much about how unhealthy it is as we do now. (Doctors knew it was bad, but just in the last few years research has come out showing that the safe amount of drinking is none)
This is bleak, but it reminds me how police found, in the home of convicted murderer and former Linux FS contributor Hans Reiser, a book about how to get away with murder.

It's an interesting idea, but the end result would probably be less options for people with allergies (unless they risk foods that appear to be safe, but lack the label.)

We already have this type of labelling for gluten free foods, and one common complaint in the celiac community is that gluten should also be a major allergen. This would help greatly in deciding if a product is safe for people with celiac, since many products are but manufacturers don't bother putting GF labels on them.
Keeping no evidence of misbehavior is already becoming standard practice to avoid regulators.

> Most of the 'fraud' that doctors complained about where I lived in Italy was old people coming in with mostly imagined complaints because they're lonely and don't have anyone and a doctor visit is free. Which is kind of sad, but... not the same level of problematic.

I don't think that's a relevant analogy at all. In this case, the doctors were the ones perpetuating the fraud. Not the patients, not the insurance company.
You can't create all of it, that's the point. But you can create it, and colonise everything else that others create.

Increasingly political compared to when?

And I don't think it's a singular judgement. If anything, the "ideological split" types of decisions are rarer, so it's more accurate to say that a few decisions on hot political topics doesn't mean that the SCOTUS is increasingly political.
Well, depending on how much python is written around the C library, you'll get a lot of overhead.

There's also the fact that having everything be compiled simultaneously results in the optimizer being able to get a lot more work done.

Yeah, exactly. The initial prototype turned out to be quite slow - a lot of optimizations are needed to be fast. The version as of now is 4x faster than that initial prototype, and 2x faster than the JS version. And we are working to make it even faster.

The good news is that most of those optimizations weren't specific to Java, like work in V8 (that helps any Chromium-based-browser running WasmGC) and work in Binaryen (that helps any Binaryen-using toolchain, like Kotlin and Dart).
I was specifically talking about the ones who wanted to crucify Assange the moment he revealed something inconvenient for their side after years of praise for what he did under Bush, which likely applies to you as well considering your twisted perspective on this.

Yes, we are building a commercial experience, and I am also a lifelong chronic insomniac, which got me into this space.

HOWEVER, this is not an insomnia device. There are a bunch of "competing" devices that sound similar that promise to help you "fall asleep faster" often 70%+ faster, and looking at all the research they've done, it's BS.

Sorry, I wish I could solve our problem, but this isn't it.
However, as far as the getting the benefits of a full night sleep, this does help.

I've been speaking with a lot of insomniacs, and what I often bring up is "do you kinda like it"? We all know we "should" sleep, but I feel a large part of chronic insomnia isn't the "stress" that everyone assumes we have, but just that we enjoy being awake in the middle of the night, pondering, ruminating, etc.
Data will still be harvested. Logs that indicate when or how it was harvested, where it has been sent, or who has accessed it - those are the things that will be killed.
It’s genuinely concerning to me how many people replied with thinking reddit is the gospel for factual information.

Reddit, while it has some niche communities with tribal info and knowledge, is FULL of spam, bots, companies masquerading as users, etc etc etc. If people are truly relying on reddit as a source of truth (which OpenAI is now being influenced by), then the world is just going to be amplify all the spam that already exists

I sometimes think that situations like this are eventually going to lead to legally-required professional licensing for certain tasks in software development.

Obviously, not everyone who writes code needs a development license (what, I'm going to get licensed to write a blog or put up a site with fruit jokes?"), but if your business is going to involve personally-identifiable information, then you need actual engineering, and the folks that do that engineering need certification. This is a similar mechanism to how engineering licensing even started (in the US anyway), where Wyoming basically got tired of water infrastructure being built by people who didn't know what they were doing.

Licensing could also help provide individual engineers with leverage against managers or C-suite folks who want to move fast & break things. When you're in a professional class with exclusive sign-off capabilities, it's easier to be say "we have to do this right or it's my ass, back off" and should the company says "fine, you're fired", goes ahead with managing the PII, and a leak like this happens, the company's liability goes way way up. That situation overall tends to improve the leverage that skilled workers (like those who know how about database management for PII and endpoint configuration) have to do things right. There's a number of pitfalls that can happen with licensing as well, but I'd be curious to see if a push for something like this emerges over the next few years.
> I've never really had a strong internal monologue when thinking, so my assumption would always be that of course, thinking isn't very linguistic (even if we can use it as a tool while thinking).

I always had thought this is the case too. Thinking isn't linguistic but it can be helpful as a tool while thinking, especially while thinking about communication.

It also seems obvious to me that language is a tool for communication rather than thought, although sometimes it also includes communication to yourself (in future).

In some cases, I can visualize words as text too, especially if thinking about written communication.
