That’s true, but in capitalism wealth and power can’t be separated. Even in democracies, economic power gives the very rich political power that’s only achievable otherwise trough elections.

There's two untrusted code cases here: untrusted DTrace scripts / users, and untrusted targets for inspection. The latter has to be possible to examine, so the observability tools (like DTrace) have to be secure for that purpose. This means you want to make it difficult to overflow buffers in the observability tools.

There's also a need to make sure that even trusted users don't accidentally cause too much observability load. That's why DTrace has a circular probe buffer pool, it's why it drops probes under load, it's why it pre-allocates each probe's buffer by computing how much the probe's actions will write to it, it's why it doesn't allow looping (since that would make the probe's effect less predictable), etc.

> Because the advertisement inappropriately calls the product a solution to an unrelated problem.

Yes, but that is true in both cases. A miracle cure-all, if there were such a thing, would, indeed, solve your halitosis and girl troubles.

If I am to infer something here, it is that you didn't realize what a "cure-all" can do. It took more precise language to get you thinking about specific problems and how to solve them.

So, let's assume for a minute that snake oil is well and truly a magical cure-all. It seems that by the first ad you wouldn't recognize that fact and would end up not being able to benefit from is miracle properties. Perhaps the second ad would actually be preferable?

In my sector of the tech industry at the time, there was no serious concern at all. The whole issue, while certainly real, was dramatically overblown from the start and everybody in the industry knew it.

I saw this news last year: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41392-023-01504-6

I use a mix of erythritol and xylitol (there is evidence of synergistic effects) to brush my teeth, I use it as a home made mouth wash without swallowing. Not sure how good they are as sweeteners. They are not very sweet and are not suited for baking. Most other artificial sweeteners, except stevia, disrupt your gut microbiome. I think it was this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10144565/
Surprisingly your the only one who has mentioned Keycloak so far?! I switched several projects from Auth0 to it some time ago and didn't look back... particularly when they started tightening things since said projects were not even profitable.

True, I’m just thinking that a lot of the people I saw being total fanboys hewed pretty closely to the new IT dude who is convinced they’re destined for greatness just like their hero and then they wouldn’t have to do that boring stuff their boss insists on.
For my work, the lack of flash memory integration on the 2040 is a deal breaker. You cannot secure your code. Not sure that has changed with the new device.
Why would you need to consume any erythitol at all to be on a keto diet anyway? Doesn't keto mean no or few carbs or no simple carbs or something like that? You can just focus on eating animal proteins, fats, fiber (vegetables) etc. Not sure where sweetener comes into it?

You keep linking "low carb" with "artificial sugars" but I don't think it takes any particular self control to just cut sweeteners of both the natural and artificial kind out.

I can understand if you have some specific recipes that are sweet that you loved from before keto and wanted to just recreate them, but why bother? Why not just switch to recipes that don't need it at all and avoid the hassle? Eat beans, cabbage, beef, eggs, yogurt, the list is endless.

A delicious nutritious varied diet is easy to accomplish without resorting to junk food, processed food, or weird modern chemicals invented recently, so I really don't know why anyone bothers messing around instead of just sticking to the tried and true.

What exactly is so disgusting to you about a nice steak with a side of sauteed green beans and pinto beans? Or an omelette made with cream and avocado and tomato and onion and bacon? Can you really just not stand a nice chicken soup with peas, carrots, onions, garlics, and leeks? Maybe a roasted sweet potato if that isn't too carby for your personal understanding of keto? Mmmmm how about a salad from one of those fast casual salad places with lots of veggies and some roasted chicken, beans, and a good fatty dressing and avocado? I'm getting so hungry!

I've never done keto but I've tried cutting all sweeteners and simple carbs out many times (allowing whole complex grains and tubers like corn, brown rice, potatos) and it's always been easy and required no more will power than the will power needed to actually cook for yourself (with some takeout as feasible, but that depends on your finances and your location-- much of the USA is tough for eating healthy outside of your kitchen)

I'm just baffled by this idea that sweeteners are a necessity. I don't think you have a very broad palate and need to expand it.
k8s is complex, if you don't need the following you probably shouldn't use it:

* Service discovery

* Auto bin packing

* Load Balancing

* Automated rollouts and rollbacks

* Horizonal scaling

* Probably more I forgot about

You also have secret and config management built in. If you use k8s you also have the added benefit of making it easier to move your workloads between clouds and bare metal. As long as you have a k8s cluster you can mostly move your app there.

Problem is most companies I've worked at in the past 10 years needed multiple of the features above, and they decided to roll their own solution with Ansible/Chef, Terraform, ASGs, Packer, custom scripts, custom apps, etc. The solutions have always been worse than what k8s provides, and it's a bespoke tool that you can't hire for.

For what k8s provides, it isn't complex, and it's all documented very well, AND it's extensible so you can build your own apps on top of it.

I think there are more SWE on HN than Infra/Platform/Devops/buzzword engineers. As a result there are a lot of people who don't have a lot of experience managing infra and think that spinning up their docker container on a VM is the same as putting an app in k8s. That's my opinion on why k8s gets so much hate on HN.

A few other things jumped out to me:
- Automotive's advanced features require chips but not the most advanced chips (by design, for reliability).
- Micron's HQ is in the US but has operated globally since 1998 including design. ("Micron really went global in terms of its operations once it acquired the TI DRAM operations in 1998")
- TSMC's 90% share of global semi is why Apple can get the exclusive on advanced processes.
- Isn't a lot of CHIPs Act money help prop up Intel who didn't succeed in mobile and is laying off thousands anyway?
- Apple did not cause poor pay and working conditions in China, the conditions, pay and environmental protections are how China attracts businesses.
- Apple can not tax you because they can not arrest you if you don't pay 30% commission.
- Massimo is medical device company, I'm curious how big a semi concern they are.
I'm both diabetic and have a clotting disorder (among other problems life throws us) and, while I often get annoyed at the press on medical reporting, I don't nearly as often get annoyed at the studies themselves. While it's important to weight the benefits vs the downsides (the piece most media reporting is missing when talking about these matters) we really on studies like this to do that weighing.
You're almost certainly right that consuming artificial sweeteners is orders of magniture healthier for you than it would be to consume the sweetness-equivalent dosage of sugar. The interesting question is whether not consuming artificial sweeteners nor sugar would be significantly healthier than consuming artificial sweeteners in such an amount.
Canonical S-expressions seem remarkably similar to bencoding as used in BitTorrent files. They both use length prefixes written in ASCII digits followed by a colon.

Canonical S-Expression: (9:groceries(4:milk5:bread))
Bencoding: l9:groceriesl4:milk5:breadee

Bencoding also manages to specify dictionaries, and yet still have a canonical encoding, by requiring dictionaries be sorted by key (and keys be unique).

It doesn't have the option for arbitrary type names, it just has actual types: integer, bytestring, list and dictionary.

FTA:

> Bencoding offers many of the same benefits of CSEXP, but because it also supports types, is a bit easier to work with.

Hmm, well there you go.
Without having a ton to add, logistics might not be the sexiest industry but you can do a lot to make the role more sexy, especially to senior engineers.

And I should say that DTrace probe actions can dereference pointers, but NULL dereferences do not cause crashes, and rich type data is generally available.

I see CMSIS definitions for the RP2040 at https://github.com/raspberrypi/CMSIS-RP2xxx-DFP but none for RP2350. Maybe they'll eventually appear in that repo, given its name is RP2xxx? I thought vendors are legally obligated to provide CMSIS definitions when they license an ARM core.

I put together a simple TST hack / extension that puts recently active tabs in the horizontal space (with a "user-defined" timeout). Have been using it actively for the last few years.

https://gist.github.com/theprojectsomething/6813b2c27611be03...

It's nowhere near perfect (see comments in the gist), but I genuinely enjoy the paradigm of easy access active tabs alongside a full laundry list. I find myself reinstalling it on new machines as I go. It's also just a few lines of CSS.

That said, keen to try out the nightly version of vertical tabs. Tho I'm hoping my active tabs hack might work with it too.
Canonical S-Expressions aren't meant to replace something like C or assembly, they're for data serialization. It's meant to be compared against things like JSON, XML, ASN.1, or any other serialization format.

I wouldn't get annoyed at the study—they're trying to discover objective facts about the world, and it is very important to know that a commonly-accepted sugar substitute causes a drastic and long-lasting increase in clotting behavior after consumption. What you do with that information is up to you.
New immigrant/less wealthy women lose less money by deciding to have children than wealthier women (historically white due to distance from equator effects).

The wealthier you are, the more financial sense it makes to have zero children. Until the government decides that subsidizing families is worth doing until the population pyramid is stabilized, every wealthy subgroup will experience decline (except the practicing religious subgroups of those).
I'm really surprised by the low quantity of people who learned by trying and instead read whole books or manuals. Had some code or whatnot that needed mass-replacing and used the built-in RegEx find-and-replace (I think it was EditPlus in those days). First learned how to match the exact string then extrapolate from there using {}, (), replacing, etc. It's a lot easier to learn when you need to solve a practical, immediate problem.

The last one occasionally fails to show ads due to some javascript error (visible in the console). The same error was also observed on a few other pages with the "you may also like" footer, so my guess is that some ads were supposed to be visible on many pages, but were accidentally hidden due to some configuration issue.

> just Irish/British/German which are practically the same two ethnic groups

Despite wanting to go "back to the way things were", you are viewing that past through a distorted modern lens. Prior to the 20th century someone who was English would see themselves as being from a completely different civilization as a German. Eastern immigrants such as from Poland or Ukraine were treated as non-white invaders. Even the way you just lump the English and Irish together is a very big no-no to this day.
Locking differentials are very useful in particularly challenging terrain. Think step rough rock climbs or soft sand. For punting along an average fire trail or dirt road, though, it’s clearance, strong tyres and suspension travel that’s more important.

Linux has a different design than DTrace; eBPF is more capable as a trusted tool, and less capable for untrusted tools. It doesn't make sense to say one approach has "caught up" to the other, unless you really believe the verifier will reach a state where nobody's going find verifier bugs --- at which point eBPF will be strictly superior. Beyond that, it's a matter of taste. What seems clearly to be true is that eBPF is wildly more popular.
> I don't think it takes any particular self control to just cut sweeteners of both the natural and artificial kind out

It does.
No. You will almost certainly fuck it up because you're not a software company and very likely don't have a culture conducive to efficiently creating software or identifying and retaining software-related talent. Your costs will balloon and your output will pretty quickly slow to at least as much of a crawl as the vendors you're using, once attrition and tech-debt catch up with you.

If anything, you should contract with a software company that builds custom software solutions for niche businesses. But be very careful when identifying the company to go with, as a lot of them are essentially scams.
The Cybersecurity Toolbox: More Like a Junk Drawer
This year alone we've seen significant price increases from web services, including critical ones such as Auth. If you are vendor-locked into, say Auth0, and they increase their price 300%[1]... What choice do you have? What negotiation position do you have? None... They know you cannot leave.

It's even worse when your entire platform is vendor-locked.

There is nothing but upside to working towards a vendor-neutral position. It gives you options. Even if you never use those options, they are there.

> Do you really think you can haggle

At the scale of someone like Figma? Yes, they do negotiate rates - and a competent account manager will understand Figma's position and maximize the revenue they can extract. Now, if the account rep doesn't play ball, Figma can actually move their stuff somewhere else. There's literally nothing but upside.

I swear, it feels like some people are just allergic to anything k8s and actively seek out ways to hate on it.

> What if you do not have enough time to do you best work

Early in my career, I'd just do the best work I could given whatever the constraints were.

Later in my career, once I grew a bit of weight to throw around, I'd push back and say that the deadline doesn't allow for quality production, given the scope of the task. Then I'd offer various options to narrow the scope such that good work becomes possible.

Even then, sometimes reality is not what we would prefer and I end up falling back onto "the best I can do given the constraints". Good engineering isn't developing some platonic ideal of excellent code, because there are always constraints. If not time, then something else. Good engineering is developing the best possible solution given the constraints that have to be worked with.
It's still an improvement on top of studies that just used serum levels (your body can generate some sugar alcohols, so may not be as closely related to consumption as one would think).
I agree with this somewhat. The other day I was driving home and I saw a sprinkler head and broke on the side of the road and was spraying water everywhere. It made me think, why aren't sprinkler systems designed with HA in mind? Why aren't there dual water lines with dual sprinkler heads everywhere with an electronic component that detects a break in a line and automatically switches to the backup water line? It's because the downside of having the water spray everywhere, the grass become unhealthy or die is less than how much it would cost to deploy it HA.

In the software/tech industry it's common place to just accept that your app can't be down for any amount of time no matter what. No one checked to see how much more it would cost (engineering time & infra costs) to deploy the app so it would be HA, so no one checked to see if it would be worth it.

I blame this logic on the low interest rates for a decade. I could be wrong.
Nothing about this is honest. This is trash-fire pro-fossil-fuel propaganda and nothing more. And it comes across pretty clearly in the tone; there is no attempt to sound neutral at all.
