I bet a lot of commenters here don't understand the extent to which this ruling will apply.

The ruling affects cases where statutes do not explicitly grant interpretive authority to the enforcing agency. When a statute clearly delegates interpretive authority to the enforcing agency, the agency's interpretations will definitely prevail in the courts.

So this ruling is not as terrible as most comments think. If anything, it's very rational. If a law explicitly applies to X, you don't want the executive branch applying it to Y and Z. That's how you create a rogue executive branch (even though you may be well intentioned).
Kubernetes is actually extremely popular all around the world. Chickfila if I recall correctly deploy it in every single store!

A lot of big dinosaur corporations are implementing it actively. Unfortunately VMs or Kubernetes or whatever tooling is still going to suck if you have shitty people using them.
I bumped into a DevOps job at Teradata, did it for two years, then left for where I belong, in gaming as a backend developer. It was a corporate with good pays and perks including international travel etc. Some friends are still there doing DevOps very happily. Talking to them it never feels a like a dying field.

I hated my DevOps role so pardon me for only reading the headings of the article, but talking about it in past sentences seemed very delusional.
A wild 14th Amendment appears (they hate that one, too).

> We need to be able to see an asteroid at a minimum of of 3-4x the distance between the earth and the sun to have enough time to do anything about it based on the average speed of 40k mph.

Not really. The important variable is not distance, but rather the mass and velocity vector.

There could exist an asteroid that is currently barely 1 moon orbit away (~400 000 km), but has a velocity vector almost equal to that of Earth's. This asteroid could then be predicted to impact upon the next close encounter with Earth.

In general, the more distant the predicted impact date, the less the delta-v required to push the asteroid off its current path and avoid an impact in future.

> Now keep in mind that at that distance you are looking for something as "tiny" as 60 miles across

NASA and ESA have databases of some 35000 near-Earth asteroids, and many of them are orders of magnitude smaller than 100 km[1]. Our detection capability has significantly improved since efforts first started in the 1980s.

Asteroid impact avoidance is amongst the few natural disasters humanity has the technological, financial, and engineering capability to completely avoid.

We have both the firepower and the lift capability (if not now, then in the near future, dictated by the urgency of the asteroid impact) to deflect even a 12 km, Chicxulub-size impactor if detected sufficiently early. About 5-10 years' warning would be enough time for a large nuclear device to deflect such an asteroid, which would be a major achievement for humanity.

That's the problem. Yes, I'm the old man yelling at cloud, but indeed 'kids this days' don't know Linux, they know how to provision things from Terraform. In fact it feels like logging in via ssh and checking process with with `strace` is a lost art. Checking PCAP? That's a black magic!
I can change a dependency and my code at the same time and not need to wait for the change to get picked up and deployed separately.

Fair enough, but I’d wager that people pushing this would flip out if other religious texts were being taught.
you can race the beam, I've written many demos that use this. On the original Apple II you have to do something called "vapor lock" or "reading the floating bus" where you draw a pattern to memory scanned by the video circuitry, then read an unmapped memory address and you get a "ghost" of the last value read by the video circuitry due to capacitance on the bus. You can then find the beam location, but from then on you have to cycle-count everything. Sather describes this in his book.
There's a configuration directive you put in a plain text file in the monorepo which lets you configure:

* File A's path

* File B's path

* The message shown on the commit's review page if B isn't updated when A is updated

* How a developer can override the alert (Which would be a custom named directive added to a commit message, like "SKIP_FILE_SYNC_ALERT=true")

You then need to either commit a diff to file B when file A is changed or override it in order to get the commit added to HEAD. This is just one of many different "plugins" for the CI system that can be configured with code.
What helps me be less angry is having more money.
The Famicom – The Design of a Legend [video]
Congress already decides how much to spend and on what weapons systems for the various branches of the military.

Meanwhile, you need to brush up on your civics knowledge. The authority to command the armed forces is directly under the executive, which is why the President is the “Commander in Chief.”

In other words, these are not problems, either in the real world way things work (like the EPA has problems now after this decision) or in a constitutional sense.
I think people unfairly critique this court, they are more originalist, more towards balancing the executive and the legislative. There is no way this would survive in this Supreme Court.

It's partially because of inertia, because I put it into my RSS reader a long time ago. It's partially because there are interesting posts every now and then, such as the one about him repurposing his old Lisp Machine terminal, or about XScreeenSaver. And yes, it's partially because rubbernecking while passing by a colossal trainwreck is always entertaining.
Can you clarify what you mean by "leaks implementation details everywhere"?

I like to think of kubernetes as a big orchestration platform that you can choose to use what you need. If an ingress and pods work then use that, otherwise extend an throw an operator up for what you need (it likely already exists).

Cilium for instance is great for that, so is Istio and the like. They aren't hard you just have to understand networking... which is nearly the same energy of running it on another orchestration tool or raw on a network device.
Pretty sure that was my friend Joe. A passionate music fan and early tech adopter who ran one of the first online record stores out of his apartment in Brooklyn. I visited that apartment too! Inviting you over to show you a graphical web browser is exactly the sort of thing he would do.

It was called Sound Wire, not Sound Tube - which is probably why you couldn't find anything... perhaps the name got mixed up with the toothpaste logo in your memory. Memory does that!

So let me get this straight... People unable to afford a home, with no communal shelter, are fined for making alternate arrangements. Of course, given that they're already in a bad financial situation, they won't be able to pay the fines. So it's jail time. I guess that's a kind of shelter, but then what happens when the jails become full? Where do the extras go then? And what happens to those released with fresh marks on their record and still no way to afford anything? Maybe start culling the flock? I'm seeing no path forward where any of this makes sense.
I learned r too long ago so I am pretty fluent writing readable data wrangling code in base R. But I'm a biologist first, in my community I see the value dplyr adds in making it approachable for people who need to do some basic stats but probably will never need to really understand the language or do any development.

It also provides guardrails and encourages best practices which I find a bit to paternalistic and annoying but again I can see the value.

I think most R users would be surprised and just how much tidyverse functionality is hidden in base R but majority of the dplyr versions of functions have at least some intended improvement over the base R versions, and some are a massive improvement in functionality.

For example in a typical script the only tidyverse package I may load besides ggplot2 is tidyr, because the pivot_ wider/longer() functions really do solve a problem that was not fun in base R.
Huh, also having worked at both I had exactly the opposite experience. Google’s tools looked ugly but just worked. At meta there were actually multiple repos you might have to touch and tools worked unreliably across them. Owners files made sure there was less abandoned code and parent owners woild be found by gwsqueue bots to sign off on big changes across large parts of the repo by just reading these files.
SecDB at Goldman. There were runtime issues aplenty but the SDLC was top notch and I’ve never heard of or seen better - and it’s 30 years old. Instant deployments and rollbacks globally, you show up to work and commit to prod in the first half day. Within a week you can go on rota. It’s why Goldman was so nimble in the 90’s, and 00’s. It’s still a remarkable system but underinvestment has taken its toll after margins evaporated in 2010.

The public version of Google's build tool is Bazel (it's Blaze internally). It has some really impressive caching while maintaining correctness. The first build is slow, but subsequent builds are very fast. When you have a team working on similar code, everyone gets the benefit.

As with all things Google, it's a pain to get up to speed on, but then very fast.
That's only true IMO of the in-IDE plots, but actual exported PNG or vector graphics I think base R plots are pretty perfect, other than perhaps the default colour palette

> Time doesn't work inside black holes, we have no clue how that even works or if things are frozen or if it happens instantly. […] This isn't just the time paradox of near light travel, the math says that inside black holes you have an entire different dimension of time instead of our regular one

There is no such thing inside a black hole as "an entire different dimension of time." Yes, by the very definition of an event horizon, the coordinate chart of an observer at infinity cannot extend inside a black hole. Needing multiple coordinate charts is not really unusual, though. The two-dimensional sphere S² also requires at least two charts. All in all, time inside a black hole locally works the way it does outside a black hole. Yes, there might be interesting non-local effects like closed timelike curves but you can also have those outside.
Fair enough.

Guess that is why Netfix is so Glitchy every other day j/k.

Me too. Oh man, me too. Often times, the good QA people/teams were the ones who knew how a feature fully worked. It’s limitations, extensibility, interoperability with other features, etc. In the beginning of the transition/disappearnce of QA developers were told they needed to be their own QA. And this made some sense assuming the dev would be given 2x the time for each feature. But that expectation quickly changed to build an MVP, give a demo, ship it to “get feedback from users”.
The CSS box model for sure. Border box just makes so much more sense than content box (who seriously counts the width of a border and padding as separate from the container itself, in real life or otherwise?) that I'd put it as default from the start, like IE did all along.

I'd probably also scrap the attempts to migrate to XHTML, and go ahead with HTML 5's additions back in the early 00s. Things like the new semantic block elements, new input types, picture element, etc are far more useful to developers than an XML based HTML dialect were, and don't sacrifice ease of use for some abstract ideal.

Finally, I'd have Flexbox and Grid added early on, so that the hellscape of floats and table layouts didn't have to come to fruition. They just make so much more sense really.

Once you are using the tidy paradigm, it lends itself to efficient plotting with ggplot2. Plotting with base R would require reshaping your data. So I think insofar as dplyr becomes a popular default it makes sense ggplot2 would be in lock step

The conclusion of the experts who have studied renewables is that they very clearly can be made to work, and more cheaply than nuclear.

"With every iteration in the research and with every technological breakthrough in these areas, 100% RE systems become increasingly viable. Even former critics must admit that adding e-fuels through PtX makes 100% RE possible at costs similar to fossil fuels. These critics are still questioning whether 100% RE is the cheapest solution but no longer claim it would be unfeasible or prohibitively expensive."
This is the elephant in the room: all "new" technology isn't fundamentally new. Terraform is just curl with state management for lots of different websites, Andible is just a YAML to Bash converter, and so on. If you have good fundamentals, not only are these things easy, they're also incredibly frustrating, because you can easily see their limitations. You can always tell how experienced someone is by how well they know what a given tool is actually doing under the hood. People who exhibit shock and awe will just mess up your codebase, because they have no clue how the machine actually works.

No, I want to hire the grumpy, cynical greybeards, because they know their fundamentals, and they're immune to shiny bullshit.

There's no substitute for skill and experience, despite what the modern tech discourse says. "Anyone can program!" And yet, we have threads like this, where we find out, SHOCKER, that the best codebases are the ones maintained by like... four senior developers, half of whom contributed to several Internet RFCs, and half of whom used to work at Bell Labs.

I feel like we are through the looking glass.
This is one of those things that still makes me scratch my head. When I started programming my code ran on a 2-4 thread machine with a couple GB of ram because that was the size of a relatively affordable commodity server. Today my code runs on a 2-4 thread pod with a couple GB of ram because... reasons I guess.

The industry has been given servers with 100x the resources and collectively said "naw I'm good". Can't wrap my head around it.
My cousin won a bronze medal in a non-prestigious event in 2004, and according to him there are a ton of people who love hiring Olympic level athletes, because they believe that they have the personality to strive to win.

So, he barely won any money from the actual sport itself, but his job prospects after he retired were very good, even for someone who was in his mid-thirties and almost no real work experience.

Also, the ‘credible threat’ of being prosecuted was based on the agency simply declining to state that it would not sue if Smith violated the law. Seeing as no such violation of the law had even been alleged, it seems incredibly flimsy to say there was a threat at all, let alone a credible threat.
Kubernetes is just a poor Linux clone with extra steps. Seriously, it has all the basic parts of an OS, just half-assed: the scheduler, the networking, the state management. We already had way better operating systems that can, you know, schedule workloads and talk to the network, and it didn't require gigabytes of YAML and string templating to make it happen.
Maybe you don’t need to generate the waves, if you can collect them and redirect them into the shape you want.
Google tells me it's complicated and there's no sure-fire way to know, and that effectively every single accusation of origin is only an estimation, which reinforces my original point that these attacks are stated factually as Russian instead of "forensic experts of unknown bias has some reason to believe it may be Russian of origin, but there is also evidence it could be other actors or actors trying to come across as Russian". But that doesn't make for as nice of a narrative.
I thought this post might be a joke because it claimed that it was saving verbosity here! ?? is also the null coalescing operator in C#. Not only is it nice and short, but since it's an infix operator it chains in a much cleaner way than nesting static method calls.
>That isn't a fair characterization of the situation. Even forgiving that the police aren't a federal agency, first a question around the legality of what the police were doing would have to reach the court in the first place, then the court would have to determine that an ambiguity in the law existed, and then the court would have to decide if the interpretation of the law that the police has been using is reasonable and only if it wasn't would the court impose its own interpretation. That seems pretty fair even in the case of the police.

There are of course federal policing agencies, such as the DEA, ATF and FBI, but it doesn't matter because the point wasn't about federal agencies as such. It was about deferring to the enforcers of a law about what the limits of their powers are, which just seems like a terrible idea at all levels of government.

Was the FBI spying (and more) on civil rights leaders part of their powers as federal law enforcement officers executing their duties? I have no doubt they would say so, and absent a specific law from congress telling them they couldn't, who is to argue that they were unreasonable? Surely we should defer to them as they're the experts in their field right?

If the secret service started shutting down cell towers within a 10 mile radius of presidential rallies, well that's just common sense protection against remote explosives and well within their directive to protect the president right? They are the experts on this after all and have wide latitude to do what's necessary. No need for the courts to review that action or the laws surrounding it.
Derivative works are not automatically fair use. Otherwise I could release an album with a Prince song and a Taylor Swift song, claim it's a derivative work and covered under fair use. Again. Try to do this on YouTube (even though YouTube is not the arbiter of what is and isn't fair use, they're just aggressive about removing content.)

Doxxing people can give cause to restraint if it's inciting speech. Consider a situation where you say "Hey. I just found Joe Schmo's Address. He lives at 123 Main St., Anytown, DK 10010." Now compare it to when you say "Hey. I just found Joe Schmo's Address. He lives at 123 Main St., Anytown, DK 10010. Joe's a child molester. Let's go burn down his house." or if you call up the local police department and said "Hey. I saw Joe Schmo with Goody Parker in their house at 123 Main St., Anytown, DK 10010. They're molesting a child right now! Hurry, if you're fast you might stop them!"

The overturning of chevron now allows the federal courts to prevent the HHS and CMS from doing their jobs which can prevent the Affordable Care Act from being carried out effectively.

I don't think this is accurate. Take Schwarzschild for instance: The singularity is not a place in space you can poke with a stick. It's a spacelike singularity, and it lies in the future of any observer unlucky enough to fall into the BH.
