People not reading emails hasn't really been a problem pretty much anywhere I worked for the last 10 years or more. People not writing them has been a problem though. Maybe this was caused by people not reading them, but I've always suspected that a lot of people just don't like writing, and/or aren't very good at it. So it's easier for them to do an in-person meeting.

And when no or very few emails get sent, no on really pays attention to them. I haven't even opened the company email in a week because there is never anything interesting there.

I really wish writing would be emphasized more in job interviews. I have seen some that emphasise written communication, but it's relatively rare.
I like this. The only things I really use on my phone is the camera, gps and music. Occasionally, I'll check things on the web- but often, I will wait with that until I can sit down at my desk.

Unforunately, I'm somewhat involuntarily locked into the Apple "app ecosystem".
Engaging in philosophy only alone (or only with like minded, agreeable people who will circle the wagons if someone dares to take things actually seriously) is a tragic waste of immense power. No wonder it gets so little respect, or attention.

Philosophy can be applied, but it takes brass balls.
Conway's law tends to make this decision for you and engineering concerns are usually secondary. Who has power in your organization? Is authority centralised or distributed? It is pretty similar to the process that results in workload getting split across cloud accounts or collocated in the same. Often not really "designed" so much as the result of path-dependent org politics.

Some common top-level patterns I've seen:

1. A politically powerful central platform team builds & operates the whole infra foundation for developers. This tends to lead to fewer cloud accounts, and large shared clusters (it can be done in a multi-account, multi-cluster kind of way though).

2. Less powerful cloud engineering team(s) that do guard-rails, interconnect, patterns etc, but leave product engineering teams to manage the actual workloads. Typically results in "cluster per team or project", ideally stamped out from some shared IaC.

3. Various forms of anarchy (I don't mean this pejoratively) that result from widely distributed authority. Product engineering teams are powerful enough that no central team can really "tell them what to do". This tends to result in multiple clusters that are built and run in different ways.

Very large organisations can have pockets of all 3 models.

From my perspective the strongest forces that "push" towards big, centralised clusters are:

1. Powerful central teams that also operate. They're OK with trading off fewer things to look after for potentially larger blast radius. Also the capacity to set up the more complex security controls required for multiple teams and projects to co-exist in the same cluster.

2. Large homogenous workloads are a natural fit for big clusters. Homogenous workloads tend to have 1 "entity" looking after them, so no matter what organisation model, you can end up with big clusters.

3. Tight coupling between workload components. If you have a lot of different things that all need to talk to each other quickly and cheaply you will want to put them close together if you can.
I think I agree. And this may be why there is so much variance. What worked with one team, vendor, group, might not work well with another. I am just about end a very unpleasant project about to go-live and has been something of a shitshow from the beginning. The one recurring theme throughout that we had no one person in charge, who could (edit: nicer phrasing ) help guide the conversation. Post-mortem will not be fun for anyone.

The lack of structure can be a benefit; it can work, but not when the project requires close coordination. On the other hand, stupid policies can easily hamstring PMs.
Well I guess because America is a failing nation, according to him, he might have to be a dictator for a little longer just to "fix it all", right? Don't you know how this works? Never read a history book?

Location history is really just a setting asking if you want to see your own location data.

All of your location data from the E911 system through to Google Play Services and on to maps, etc is constantly being collected then sold and collated among all these companies.

It is impossible on a modern cellphone to fully disable reporting of your location to any provider in the stack.
Some call themselves Hackers, they love to bypass processes.

And some call themselves code monkeys, they know how to follow orders, but have no incentives at all to think by themselves for proper security.

Only a tiny fraction call themselves engineers.

I favor non-licensed free professions, but if you're free you should be able to follow best practices and be able to think for yourself.

I'm not sure I'm making any better argument, but technically it's 2nd party. If I turned on a Google feature, that's between us. And honestly that's kind of the point I'm trying to make. Enabling a feature doesn't mean I want anyone to have access to that features data.
Have you considered the possibility that the average person doesn't care that much about privacy? That's entirely consistent with other things you can observe, like the lack of response to the Snowden leaks, or how commonly excuses like "nothing to hide" are invoked.

I'll return to my factual deadpan comment above. He did { promise | pinky swear } to only act as a dictator for a day.

That stands alone just fine as it is.
Typically I leave my camera off during meetings. (Well, the boring ones anyway.)

Which means I just keep on working during the meeting listening with half an ear.

This is especially applicable to reoccurring meetings where the manager is talking to the team, getting progress reports, working through the jira list and so on.

This actually makes for a really productive meeting. I can fill the dead time with admin tasks, but I'm also somewhat aware of what else is happening. Last month it became clear one team member was struggling (for days) trying to do something outside their experience. I offered to make an example, and got him onto the right track.

It's taken a long time to get used to these regular progress meetings (and I imagine pre-covid they were done in person and insanely frustrating) but now I gave the rhythm of them I just keep working.

The diagonal size is impressively small, but it’s crazy thick. It’s more than 1.8cm thick! In their images it’s nearly as thick as a roll of film which is just absurd. I’d love a small phone and I’m willing to compromise a bit on it being thicker than the average iPhone, but this thing looks insane.
I remember seeing a comment in HN that went like "So some group of people walked into a government building. Big deal."

I guess, for people whose world view is so malleable that they can look at an attempt to overthrow the government and say "Some people walked into a government building," it makes perfect sense to feel sorry for Trump being demonized by the Left.
It will definitely be abused by the AI generated-likeness of a target to takedown the target's original content probably for the purposes of an extortion racket or silencing political speech.

There's more dimensions to an investment than average returns.

Volatility adjusted returns (or Sharpe ratio) for instance, will tell you how much returns you have per unit of risk you take. This is important because getting 10% average annual returns with 10% annual volatility is worst than getting 5% returns with 1% annual volatility. You can only compare investments at equal amount of risk.

An other factor to take into account is diversification. If you have an alternative investment to compare to your base, and it's average returns is lower than your base, but it is un correlated, then you actually get an increased volatility adjusted average returns by investing in both.

That's just two dimensions to take into account, there are many others, but overall:

- Don't compare investments based on annualized returns alone, it really doesn't make any sense.

- Don't compare investments one against an other, instead look at the addivity of one on top of another.

This seems overly dismissive. We all have some impact on the society we live in, but not all impact is created equal.

I am trying to better understand the nature of your complaint. I currently have very limited knowledge on the author of the article.
Do you really think they were going to take over the government if they took over the building or stopped whatever process was going on? Why?

The military would have taken back that building in 10 seconds, and the process can be postponed till the next day or the next week. Nothing was at danger, that is not how a country functions. You need an armed militia or at least half of the military to take over.
Thanks for this reminder. The Robert Solomon scene in Waking Life re: Sartre had a profound impact upon upon me as a teenager and spurred my interest in Kierkegaard, but it has been several years since I have considered him.

It isn't perfect; it is even worse (unless CSS is disabled; I often disable CSS due to the excessive and undesirable CSS in web pages (which sometimes makes it very slow, but even if it doesn't, it doesn't look very good)). The original is better.

> Shit’s finally lightweight and loads fast;

The original does it better. (If JavaScripts are enabled, then the <script> command might make it slower but you can omit that. Fortunately, this "perfect" one does omit the <script>, at least.)

> Finally fits on all your shitty screens;

Not very well. With a small window size, the font is too big and it doesn't fit. With a big window size, it wastes space. The original, without CSS, allows it to fit to the window size appropriately.

> Finally looks the same in all your shitty browsers;

It is better not to; it should look correct in all of the browsers but that does not mean that it should look the same. User preferences, considerations having to do with the display (e.g. mono vs colours), available fonts, accessibility, computer types, etc, can and should make it different, and the author of the document should not have to worry about most of this (as long as minimal accessibility tags are included where necessary; see below about the HTML lang attribute).

> Won’t bleach your fucking eyeballs at night if your browser thinks you like dark things;

The use of CSS means that it is necessary to make this consideration. Omitting CSS makes this unnecessary.

> The motherfucker’s still accessible to every asshole that visits your site;

Due to the redirection of "http:" to "https:", it isn't.

> Shit’s still legible and gets your fucking point across.

Let the reader decide what is "legible".

> I know you love marginalization, but you should take care of people. The HTML tag doesn’t include the lang attribute in your shitty webpage.

This is a valid point; there are benefits of specifying the language.

> Don’t let improper marks and quotes make their way onto websites because of dumb defaults in applications and CMSs.

The ASCII quotations marks are good enough for most purposes, and are also more portable. However, if you do not want to use them, OK; at least you added a <meta charset> command in this case (which is relevant for this one, so it is appropriate to be included; but the <meta charset> command is superfluous in the original).

> And did you let the browser choose the font? Don’t make me read such text with Times New Roman.

I hope you do let the browser choose the font, according to the font installed by the user. Don't make me read such text with needing to download additional fonts that I don't want.

> And as you’ll never be perfect, let others improve your shit or do what the fuck they want to.

OK.
Just want to add some nuance:

STV is used for the Australian Federal Senate.

The federal lower chamber (House of Representatives) uses optional preferential voting for candidates in a federal electorate.

I'm not sure if NZ is a fair comparison as it uses MMP, which is deliberately designed to favour multiple parties forming coalitions, not independents.
It's pretty good, too!
The reason for this attack is political (in the general sense of the term).
It’s also just capitalism and fiat currency - in a world where the money supply has to inflate, the prices in the market have to go along with it.

I’m referring to a server without a dedicated boot disk. This is not especially rare.

On an edge-style machine, you generally have a very limited number of M.2 slots, and dedicating one to a boot device uses up potentially 100% of your potential storage capacity, not to mention that an extra drive would be a non negligible fraction of total cost.

On modern servers, there may not be a usable SATA controller, and NVMe usually costs 4 PCIe lanes. Those aren’t free. You also end up paying the absurd OEM premium for an extra disk if you go with a big name OEM. Sadly, there is no industry standard cheap, reliable boot device standard, at least as far as I’ve ever seen. Maybe someone should push USB3 for this use case — the price is certainly right, and performance is likely just fine.

Yes, which is why the reader should configure how they intend it to be and the document author should not prevent it from working how the reader intended.
They’re only mispriced until they’re not though, or they’re priced well until they’re suddenly mispriced. That is the say the market is an evolving system varying on the time axis - that things are mispriced assumes that time isn’t rolling along and new events don’t happen and new information doesn’t arrive. Everything’s price today is just a guesstimate until tomorrow’s guesstimate following some new data. Granted it’s not like the past where whole companies were sitting there underappreciated because of a lack of analytics, but at the same time coming out of covid companies like Rolls Royce (makes aircraft engines) had their prices crash completely, then were demonstrably “mispriced” for ages and are still recovering now air travel is back to 2019 levels. But the price wasn’t mispriced when the planes weren’t flying, just cheap to those who believed covid would get sorted eventually and the debt RR took on to survive would get repaid.

When Paramount released the HD remaster of TNG on Blu-ray, I really enjoyed watching the lengthy (like 2 hours per season) documentary they did on the making of the show. And sadly, one thing was abundantly clear watching that documentary: TNG was good despite Roddenberry, not because of him. The writers all talk about how hard it was to write any sort of interesting story when you were forbidden from showing conflict between the main cast of characters.
Reminds me of that scene in The Long Short where Michael Burry is hemorrhaging money on the bet against CDSes and basically everyone has completely turned on him.
