You raise a valid point, but imo the key question (to which I don't claim to have an answer) is whether Delta's extended problems are due more to their disorganization or simply to bad luck.

Here's a somewhat silly analogy: Imagine Kellogg's introduces a new ingredient in their cereals that triggers an adverse reaction only in people who have eaten sardines within the last hour. It would still be correct to hold Kellogg's entirely responsible for the adverse reactions experienced by those individuals. It wouldn't be a valid defense for Kellogg's to say, "Most people didn't experience any issues, so it can't be our product causing your adverse reactions".

There is a shift underway from ubiquitous tilling to lower and no till options. Tilling solves certain problems in a field - for a while - but causes others, and is relatively expensive. Buried lines do not coexist with tilling.

Speaking from experience - they're making it up as their go along. Instructed to water the soil rather than the leaves and a certain number of seconds per diameter of pot, and set loose. The benefit of 'gentle rain' heads (high flow, low velocity, unlike misters) at close range is that they don't blow the heads off the blooming flowers they're selling, which is what happens if you use the heads designed for longer range at close range.

Google's spam filter lets through tons of spam for me. I think some spammers are abusing Google's weird DKIM configuration to send me emails that were supposedly sent from my own email address. No amount of clicking "report spam" will do anything.

It also blocks just about any small domain that emails me for the first time. No amount of SPF or DKIM will convince Google that you're legitimate party, there's some kind of minimal volume you need to send Google to make your emails arrive to Gmail inboxes the first time.

It works when it works, but when it doesn't, it's broken without repair. It works _most of the time_ and it's better than Outlook (though that's not a high bar to clear).
The mass printed cash has a home since day 1. The bank doesn't actually create money by printing, but by giving loans, in this case to major corporations and however was to benefit from this injection of cash.

The fine print no one tells you about is that these first beneficiaries basically gets a lot of money before it hits the wider economy, so they get money pre-inflation. When it trickles down to the masses like us, inflation and price rises have already hit. However perfect pricing information might be encoded in the stock prices, their effect is not instantaneous.

This is one mechanism by which companies and rich people get even richer during high inflation and volatile economy. That is, unless you buy into the insane Keynesian concept of inflation being a lack of spending.
I suppose if you extract the models, you can generate adversarial samples automatically.
> This process of retrieving the expected database state from the WAL is called logical decoding and Postgres stores files related to this process in here.

While logical decoding is about WAL, it is not related to the recovery process. Logical decoding is a mechanism to convert the WAL entries back into the high-level operations that caused the WAL entries, for example for replication or audit.

Spartan feels like a good starting point for a new Gopher-style protocol but appropriately :-) rough and unpolished.
I agree about headers indicating size.
Without TLS, you want another way to know whether the stream ended or was interrupted early.
I see it as the biggest problem with Spartan.
As for distinguishing between GET and POST requests, `content-length` in the request line effectively does, doesn't it?
The only use a separate indicator would enable is zero-byte POST.

What I like about Spartan is that it requires no URL parsing on the server, has a small but sufficient set of status codes, and adds `=:` to gemtext.
Making requests ASCII seems like a good idea, too.
It means old computers can support the full protocol without implementing Unicode.

Maybe headers are what this kind of protocol needs.
One problem with HTTP/1.1 headers is that they are deceptively simple.
Processing them correctly requires handling letter case, leading and trailing whitespace, duplicate field names, and fields that span multiple lines.
(A line the starts with a space or tab continues the previous.)
A new protocol could, for example, limit the field names to a small single-case set of characters, like [a-z0-9-] or [A-Z0-9_].
It could also build on an existing unambiguous way to encode headers/arrays like SCGI (https://python.ca/scgi/protocol.txt) or RESP (the Redis protocol, https://web.archive.org/web/20211127173832/https://redis.io/...).

Hey, I'm not the biggest N200 fan (No pun intended).
Some people NEED battery life and want a quiet experience so this is tailored for those people, it also happens to be cheaper. We're talking about a Linux device that is cheap and would be powerful enough for a lot of the non-techies.
We also needed another option as we aren't doing AMD anymore....
A lot of our Linux users typically work in tech-related jobs and move heavy files/code which is who the Ultra Core 7 model is aimed at. I would love the Ultra Core 7 but if I was a light user I'd prefer the N200 which is cheaper.
Hope this helps, we aren't trying to charge super computer prices for an N200, instead just giving the free-market the option.

I wonder why this really common use case requires so much esoteric SQL/Postgres knowledge. While everything is well explained, the solution is not simple, by all means. I don’t like complex solutions to common problems.
Surprised to see such an incoherent and trite rant from djb.

Compilers are not your enemy. Optimizing compilers do the things they do because that's what the majority of people using them want.

It also mixes in things that have nothing to do with optimizing compilers at all like expecting emulation of 64-bit integers on 32-bit platforms to be constant time when neither the language nor the library in question have ever promised such guarantees. Similar with the constant references to bool as if that's some kind of magical data type where avoiding it gives you whatever guarantees you wish. Sounds more like magical thinking than programming.

I'd file this under "why can't the compiler read my mind and do what I want instead of just what I asked it to".
Worse than some, better than others.
There is adverse selection at play. The top/world-class programmers are too busy to write blogs.
So what? They could have payed someone to do that.

They should focus on the user experience, not chips.

For example, they let Siri languish for decades. Apple was glued to the hands/eyes of consumers, but neglected to train an AI/ gather meaningful data to improve their product.

Now they are playing catch up with Apple Intelligence.
Recessions do tend to lower demand and drop home values. No one should be hoping/expecting prices to drop values significantly though.

> If the economy can change that much over the weekend, then the traders, stockbrokers, Wall Street, whoever, is doing a pretty poor job at pricing companies.

The opposite is true, if they didn't move much within a short period of time then the market would likely not be very efficient. The inefficient part is all the rest, labour markets taking time to adjust, governments changing policies, central banks injecting / removing liquidity. Things change fast in the real world all the time - markets are just usually the first to reflect it.
Yes, this is an example of UB leaving memory in a bad state.

If you want an example of something that is not UB leaving memory in a bad state, here is some Go code:

global := 7;
func main () {
go func() {
global = 1000000;
}()
go func() {
global = 10
}()
fmt.Printf("gloabl is now %d")
}

The two concurrent writes may partially overlap, and global may have a value that is neither 7 nor 10 nor 1000000. The program's memory is in a bad state, but none of this is UB in the C or C++ sense. In particular, the Go compiler is not free to compile this program into something entirely different.

Edit: I should also note that a similar C program using pthreads or win32 threading for concurrent access is also an example of a program which will go into a bad state, but that is not UB per the C standard (since the C standard has no notion of multithreading).
I'd say this level of push back is fairly common. People don't want to believe society here actually works differently. But there is a strong culture in Japan which I don't think you can just experience by being on holidays. Some of the stories I tell people are hard to believe.

I'll give you a simple real world example. The other day I left my wallet in a bag on a towel rack at the gym, my wallet was visible.

I was mid workout and I didn't want to go back to get it. Honestly, knowing Japan well enough, I just left it there , and sure enough, when I got back, it was still there, not a single dime taken. Thieves exist here, but they're the exception, not the rule.

I would never do this in any other country. Tell me that's familiar to anyone living in the US.

I’m personally tired of how everything worth doing is already mobbed by others.

I blame the death of video games and media during and post Covid. The games and movie and TV industries are shells of their former selves, and are actively in decline right now. Why should I stay home to replay games from the 2010s (since nothing in 2024 is worth playing) when I can simply be part of the problem by going to the national parks or hot springs every weekend?

Plus, we all know that most people who are on the fence tend to regret introverted activities since they are “nerdy” and the opposite of glamorous. Going out to a national park is a chad move, staying home and doing introverted stuff literally keeps you a virgin (and this bears out in sociological data)

As always and as ever, the blame for overpriced assets goes to... investors themselves. Who else? Investors of all stripes, driven by greed and FOMO, are the ones who have been bidding prices up, either by not cashing out or by buying in at ever higher prices, sometimes with leverage.

At every instant, every investor has the choice to cash out or avoid overpaying when prices get out of hand. But few investors ever want to do that when prices are rising. Individuals like Warren Buffett -- who has been avoiding overpriced assets and accumulating low-yielding cash for years -- are few and far in-between.

Please don't blame government treasuries or central banks for the behavior of investors. They brought this unto themselves. If investors want someone to blame, they should look in the mirror. As Isaac Newton said after he lost huge chunk of his wealth in the collapse of the South Sea Bubble[a]:

"I can calculate the motions of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people."[b]

I think you misread the situation. People with money who can spend their time following the markets and the real news but also can pay other people to do this, found out earlier than the average person will, about the collapse. So they planned on selling at the highest price possible. To do this, they buy an article on a "newspaper", or maybe they own the newspapers, to tell the average person either to buy, or at least to not sell, because look "the markets are great!"

There is a psychological effect, when you hear the same thing multiple times and even from different sources. People tend to believe it. The problem is that the many different newspapers are controlled by the same individual. Also when you meet your friends and talk about it, they will tell you the same story. And you tend to believe it, because they are your friends. But your friends probably have the same life like you do, so they read the same newspapers. So they shouldn't count as "another opinion".
I guess I'm too young to understand the phrase "Even on MacOS" here, as the developer experience I personally know on MacOS is worse than the one on Windows in a variety of ways, and it's not a high bar.
First of all, you don't deserve a hypothetical "good" founder badge just because of striving to direct your business into either of the mainstream venues, and not something less overhyped or explored.

Thus, secondly, nobody can outright disregard your whole enterprise based solely on the latter being too "original" or unapologetically centered around the issues you care about the most yourself, instead of those everyone else seems to be buzzing about.

Hence, thirdly, who they are to judge your success being likelier in an area you're clearly less interested in but apparently getting more attention from around the globe, despite your possible higher readiness to put more effort into a problem which visibly less folks dare to delve into?
I think it is high time we stop calling it “stealing”, and you should too if you reject the notion that copying or making derivative works is stealing, in favour of an alternate phrase in the same way that “unauthorised copying” is preferred to a loaded term like “piracy”. Personally I have been calling it “unauthorised knowledge transfer” or “unauthorised technology transfer”.

I have thought about this for a while. I think that a lot of labeling could be done with regards to promises of consumer products. Publishers (of any kind of digital product) cannot expect to transition to a model where we don't own anything and they make no assurances on the product they serve.

Debunking the Dunning–Kruger effect with random number simulation
Here’s another take on the Dunning–Kruger effect. I made two main points:

1. Consider N independent observations of two variables, X1 and X2, with imperfect correlation. Next, we assign percentiles to them: P1 and P2, respectively. We then take a subsample of size N/4 with the lowest values of P1. The statistical fact, not psychological effect, is that, in this subsample, the average of P1 will always be less than the average of P2. With a large enough sample size, the difference will be statistically significant.

2. Percentile is a measure with bounded support (between 0 and 100). It's not correct to use it as a measure of abilities in this experiment. Participants from the top test score quartile can overestimate their abilities by a maximum of 24 percentiles and an average of 12 percentiles. Participants from the bottom test score quartile can overestimate their abilities by a maximum of 99 percentiles and an average of 87 percentiles. There is certainly a bias here.

The first point is not particularly new; there are published papers on this topic. However, not everyone is aware of this, so it's worth mentioning. I also provided a Streamlit app for simulations and a source code.

The second point is somewhat novel. At least, I haven't encountered any references to it in the context of the Dunning–Kruger experiment.

I also encourage you to think about the question: if a person scores the maximum number of points in a test, does this mean that they cannot overestimate their abilities?
AFAICS this is about exploiting race condition bugs that require a large number of requests to be processed almost-simultaneously.

>but there should be a VERY CLEAR definition of what counts as "reasonable playable state".

There's a weird idea online that laws are super specific and technical and that if you don't nail things down exactly people can side-step and go "wahaha I didn't break any rules!" when that's simply not the case.

Laws are more general and very much about the spirit of actions, and then the specificities get proven in court down the line. Those cases then get referenced in further court actions and end up informing the law overall, without having to have hyper specific wording for all edge-cases enshrined forever. This also provides fluidity for a changing and evolving legal and social system as a judge can take the specifics of that case into account. Every games definition of playable is going to be different, you can't codify something like that.
