It also assumes the producer and consumer are monolith-bound data streams. Almost all AMQP back-ends include traffic message-pattern smart-message-routing to pre-sort the data as kind of an implicit sharding operation. This pattern is also particularly performant using static route definitions.

Unless one is using Elixir/Erlang channels, than eventually one must glue on the equivalent queue structure to handle concurrency spikes. Note, this is less to do bandwidth peaks, but rather the OS ISO/OSI limitations will become the bottleneck for concurrency.

If your data traffic is truly separable, than it is trivial load-balancing across multiple pattern-matching routing consumers. Thus, you get pre-sharded localized data, and simply avoid the stores state-syncing cost on back-channel links.

If one has over 40k users, than they should already have re-discovered this phenomena. Simply repeat the mantra "concurrent consumers should never share state". =3

I use twitter a fair bit and haven't seen any disruptions - though I use it only in browser, maybe the app has seen some. It seems like only the Spaces part with Trump was overrun and not working which does make Musk's claim seem sus but they got it rather quickly working anyway. Ever since Musk took over there has been an insane amount of doomposting about twitter but it's still going fine.
Short answer no. This is because what gets exhausted is aerobic capacity. When you get within striking range The Rock will still have access to fast twitch muscles & some reduced amount of glycogen for energy release. This would probably be enough to grab you and choke you out. Basically the Mountain vs the Viper fight from game of thrones.

If you were of similar size then yes. Basically being smaller really sucks in a fight. So if you can reasonably deflect the Rocks wrestling & grappling offensive you could rope a dope him causing him to gas out and then win. Higher weight MMA fighters & boxers use this tactic all the time. They let their opponent “punch themselves out” and then get off their own offense.
Everyone is focused on the money but I'm mostly fascinated by the requirement to not mention there are other ways to pay.

There is also adsense forbidding you from talking about adsense earnings on pages with ads.

Youtube demanding advertisement friendly speech.

Platforms taking a percentage of second hand goods bought and sold by users don't want you to use the chat to take the deal outside their walled garden.

It all seems so reasonable!

Of course there are also tons of topics you should never mention on HN, X or Reddit but their users guide offers very limited guidance. It is, shall we say, not fashionable to be specific.

Maybe they are all wrong? Perhaps there is room for a more rigorous industry that specifically instructs us how to behave.

We are "secretly" already at the internet cult level of things.

It gets more funny if you hold that thought and picture how the controllers are constantly hammering us with spam. People are so nice they cant imagine outlawing advertisement for the annoying troll it is.

Take this bit from the adsense TOS:

Well, the point was that if 4 concurrent `git push`es saturates up to 1500 vCPUs then you'd need 16 of those hetzner dedicated servers (which you have to manage the uptime for) that you're paying for for the entire month. ~4 pushes is a very small amount and an org with a few dozen or so engineers will regularly see peaks higher than this.

Additionally, you'd have to ensure some isolation across your test runs (either by running the test suites in ephemeral containers, or VMs) which is additional engineering work for something that isn't business critical.
> 7 min/mile, or 100 m in 25 seconds seems doable if you excercise regularly ...

I have to disagree. I run 20 miles per week at about 11 min/mile yet could not run a single 7-minute mile to save my life. The best I can do at a "max effort" is a single 9-minute mile. Never even a 100-yard stretch in the 8s.

But then, I'm 77 years old.

Nowhere in this discussion have I seen an accounting for age. Perhaps with advancing age walking is more efficient (whatever the metric) regardless. Anecdotally (I see that word used here a lot <g>) I don't see any other runners my age, only walkers, so that must be true.

> is providing infinite value

Not infinite value, just any value versus 0 value. IE: infinitely times 0 is less than 0.0000001%. So the same relationship is true if you’re using Firefox to access Patron.

Apple charging fees is definitely a reason to drop Apple, but you personally can’t force creators to drop Patron which is why they can be so toxic.
The 2010s was a boom time in tech. Total compensation ("TC"), particularly for engineers, went way up. Employers didn't like this. They're not above colluding either. They did it with the Steve Jobs anti-poaching deal too.

Businesses made accomodations during the pandemic to stay open. Remote work really took off. Also, TC continued to rise.

But then some companies failed and the door opened to what I called Permanent Layoff Culture. Most companies end up laying off 5% of their staff every year. This is really an extension of Corporate America's "up or out" culture. The likes of Jack Welch extolled the "virtues" of firing the bottom 5-10% every year.

If you believe the companies, this is necessary. They over-hired. If so, there was a decade of "over-hiring". Why was it fine then?

Market conditions changed such that with a wink and a nod companies could effectively collude on lyaoffs to suppress wages. The goal in cutting staff is to spread their work to the remaining employees (ie free labor) and to stop people getting raises (ie reduce labor costs).

It's really no different to how one food company will raise their prices and every other one will follow suit. There's no direct collusion. That's price manipulation and it's illegal. It's price leadership. What's the difference? Price leadership is legal. There's just no agreement in a smoke-filled room.

Workers afraid to quit? Mission accomplished. They won't be asking for raises.
Market-for-lemons is sometimes a useful framing, but there's such a thing as taking it too far.

Markets, even markets for lemons, are frequently in non-equilibrium states. That can happen because actors have imperfect information, because underlying conditions have changed, because some actors are new to the market and haven't settled to equilibrium yet, because people have personal beliefs that override market-rational behavior, because market actors are simply bad at their jobs, or any number of other reasons. Far more information-perfect, rational, and optimized markets than hiring frequently show inefficient behavior in practice.

Yes, there are market pressures that tend to remove good candidates and good jobs from the market, and that incentivize both sides to pretend they're better than they are. But a tendency is only a tendency, and not a guarantee, and incentives can be missed or ignored or defied or failed in implementation. A bad company might be incentivized to lie to you, but they have to be self-aware that they suck (a trait terrible companies very frequently fail at) and capable of implementing the deception, among other things. And that means that your impressions when you speak to them do carry meaningful signal that should shift your beliefs about them.

A new job might be a lemon. But it also might not. You don't need to be certain that it isn't; you just need to be sure enough that the expected value of taking the new job, minus whatever risk discounting you're choosing to use, (minus the cost of searching for one), is greater than the expected value of staying in your current job.
OK, it's 90%. Or 70%. Is that better? :)

> It is the time it takes to where you can start to meaningfully contribute to evolving how the language is used and meaningfully coach architects, programmers and system designers. It is also what you need to absorb novices into the organization and train them fast.

I think these criteria in particular are much more than a lot of people mean when they say "learn a language", which would explain why their estimates are lower than yours. You're talking about expertise, whereas plenty of people are speaking of basic competency. This seems more like (natural) language semantics about what it means to "know" and the definition of "properly learn" than about the accuracy of people's estimates.
Wish I could dedicate life to one language, like F#. I think you'll have better luck doing it with Go.

Been using them on Google Fi with a Pixel for several years. Works great.

Recently traveled to an area with no reception and gave US Mobile (a three-carrier MVNO) a try on the second sim slot. They issued me a AT&T esim first, which worked but was slow. I switched to T-mobile and they reissued me a new esim, which started working in a few minutes. Then I canceled service altogether and went back to Fi (I prefer Google) since the performance was the same.

But the whole experience only took a few minutes and didn't require me to go to any store to pick up a sim. That was really nice, especially when testing out different carriers in place.

In fact, the people who are the most vocal about piracy are also those who are most vocal about getting their employer to give them as much money and benefits as possible.

I haven't lived in Southern California for about twenty years now so I can't speak to the current stations but in the 90s and early 00s I recall a lot of the UHF stations were foreign language.

Because no one watches something like the shot put other wise, EVER.

It use to be the Olympics were the one showcase for the non-popular sports.

Case in point, the shot put. One of the long standing "unbreakable" records was Randy Barnes shot put from the late 80s.

Ryan Crouser broke that last year and won the gold medal this year, again.

It is an incredible accomplishment but no one cares because Lebron and Steph Curry were going for the gold or why watch the shot put when you can watch break dancing.

I feel bad for anyone who is not old enough to have watched it when it was all amateurs. It was something so special.

Just have the Taylor Swift karaoke event already. I am sure that would get great ratings and that is all that matters obviously.

Either way, I’m all for laser monitored keyboard. If nothing else then just for the reactions of others when I bring my laptop and a USB-corded keyboard and start typing on the external keyboard without plugging it in :)

(Although I guess, there’s a pretty high chance they will just assume that the keyboard simply has Bluetooth and that that is how it’s working even though not plugged in.)

I understand, and the same with PostgreSQL. The only time you might need IF NOT EXISTS is when you are juggling multiple DB update scripts from different development branches and want to avoid dependencies (and probably creating a new problem). EDIT: Also, accounting for indexes or other patches applied live on production when firefighting. The update also needs to happen in dev and staging environments, but not explode when the update gets run on production.

What terrifies me though is the CONCURRENTLY, which indicates automated DB migrations doing stuff outside of transaction boundaries. This stuff should be rare, to the point it is applied manually under supervision. Any step outside the transaction boundary can fail and needs a recovery plan. And you can't automate it because part of the recovery plan might be to fix the networking glitch to see if your statement failed, succeeded but failed to report success, or is ongoing with an uncertain future. And if you have multiple migration steps, that is multiple intermediate database states that you probably haven't tested your app against (say, timeouts because you dropped a necessary index before creating a new one, hopefully one that doesn't take several hours to build).
> Originally, the EUS was allocated a budget of $962 million and intended to fly on Artemis II, which in January was pushed to no earlier than September 2025. But by the OIG’s estimate, EUS costs are expected to balloon to $2 billion through 2025 and reach $2.8 billion by the time Artemis IV lifts off in 2028.

Lets see they were allocated a budget of $962 million in order to deliver in 2025. But now they can deliver in 2028 and they will be paid $2.8 billion.

They would have to be stupid to deliver in time.

I've found that intentionally causing abrupt (but reasonable) changes to hyperparameters in evolutionary spiking neural network simulations (I.e between each generation) results in far more robust simulations that will meet fitness criteria with less likelihood of getting stuck somewhere. The tradeoff being that simulating will take longer, but this may be worth things like reducing the chances of your resource requirements going asymptotic half way through.

My current method of perturbation is to cap the total # of activations per candidate globally. When at least 3 improvements in the best global fitness score have been achieved, I cut the global activation limit in half. Obviously, this is fairly catastrophic for the current population. Each generation can increase the limit by 1% if no improvements made. This provides aggressive selection pressure for more efficient networks and forces a different kind of partial restart of the training process (I.e. do what you just did with 50% resources now). Very often this does result in optimization of the network. It also seems to make the networks rebound faster after restarts. At first, a restart can take 10-20 generations to recover. By generation 1000, this is closer to 1-2.
