Or I simply stop using their pricing, undercut my competitors, and gain tenants. Same as before.

The US has around 15million landlords, 20+ million units. RealPage has ~6000 customers.

It's pretty hard to set market prices with literally millions of competing landlords.
Hmm, that’s interesting. This sounds more like an organizational structure and ownership problem than a code problem to me.

I’ve been at multiple companies where we’ve decided to build a set of modules that could be used somewhat universally for products, and then we’d basically say “hey if you don’t want to use this, either convince us that your needs are justified or do whatever you want and DevOps/SRE can’t support you.” Some of it we went as far as calling self-service.

If you have a menu of options than people can’t pick things that aren’t on the menu.

I also find that developers really just shouldn’t have almost any cloud infrastructure rights, with few exceptions.

You could also go the embedded SRE/DevOps route where the embedded infrastructure engineer on the product team can steer each separate product into following more standard approaches.

I’m also going to take a wild guess that your ops to developer ratio is too low.

- https://github.com/dandavison/delta is nice for a prettier presentation of the same information as `git diff`.

- This may or may not qualify, since I think GNU diff supports it with an option, as does Git diff, but "Color-words" diff can be nice, where changes in the middle of the line are highlighted and whitespace is ignored.

- Somebody already recommended https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic, which I second. It uses treesitter and is very interesting. Surprisingly, in practice difftastic is not always noticeably better than color words diff (don't expect miracles), but occasionally it is much better.

For the last two, see Difftastic's FAQ, https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic#isnt-this-basically---...

I don’t understand the “it’s different this time” argument. Replace “AI” with “steam shovel” or “sewing machine” and you have the same conversation from 150 years ago, when some people predicted that by now we’d have no work to do. Which made perfect sense to them in a time when most people worked in manual labor and agriculture, just as people work in offices now.
I think, for one thing, Apple makes essentially zero dollars from these cellular activations on Apple Watches.

But also, think about the kind of customer who believes their cellular bill costs too much and goes with an MVNO instead to save money. For that kind of customer there is no price that will make a smart watch cellular activation worth the money.

I think all the hardware companies know that smartwatch cellular plans are somewhat of a niche product that isn’t really a “killer app” for the smartwatch experience. Almost nobody is willing to leave their phone at home and I think the futuristic idea that the smartwatch could replace the phone is dying or dead. The whole industry seems to know it. Hell, Google gives smartwatch data away for free on their MVNO and that’s because they want to make money selling Pixel Watch hardware. They know that they won’t get anyone to pay $5 or $10 a month for smartwatch connectivity because, why bother, my phone is right there.

Apple really doesn’t really give a hoot about 4 million lower spend GiffGaff customers who use MVNOs instead of big carriers. Someone who is too frugal to spend on a big name carrier plan probably doesn’t want to spend $400+ on a cellular Apple Watch in the first place, they’re going tog get the Apple Watch SE or maybe something WearOS in the $200 range.

It’s important to remember that in capitalism, not all customers have the same value. Apple traditionally hasn’t fought hard for the bottom 50% customers who simply have less disposable money to give to them.
This is amazing, bookmarked and will try and use it to discover some new artists.

It seems to reverse the song/artist names occasionally. For example I've got a recommendation of 'Russian Circles' by Harper Lewis, but it should be 'Harper Lewis' by Russian Circles.

It is also telling me the song 'Ten Billion People' is by As I Watch You From Afar (who have a song called '7 Billion People all Alive at Once'), however it's from Explosions in the Sky.
It doesn't matter when/where the IDs are or how they are to be used. Ever been on a call trying to get someone to look at a specific commit?

>How did he know that it was dropped by the killer and not some random customer?

As any diligent investigator (not just of the criminal justice type) can tell you, he didn't, but it was something to dig deeper into and then hopefully find the next piece of information that it connects to. In this case that was just the identity of its buyer, but from there he could scrutinize that person to see if anything else about them lines up, or if they were just coincidentally there.

Usually, if you track someone down based on something very circumstantial, but they really were the guilty party, you'll eventually find other information to cement that connection.

It's not as if he would have found the owner of the necklace and arrested them right then.

Something like that --- my going to Stanford was torpedoed by my rural high school not being able to find a teacher for calculus my senior year, so, having aced the ASVAB, EDPT, and DLPT, I enlisted.

That rural school system was a marked change from the one near Columbus AFB I had previously attended --- most students were from the base and the school received a generous amount of DoD funding to offset that, so all of the teachers had Masters degrees, and a number of them were accredited as faculty at a nearby college --- classes were strongly divided between social such as homeroom, P.E., social studies, &c. (attended at one's grade level) and academic (attended at one's grade level with a cap on 4 years ahead if in grade 8 or lower --- said cap was removed at 8th grade and students could begin taking college courses --- many graduated high school and were simultaneously awarded a 4 year college degree).

Removing duplicate annotations from the Kindle clippings.txt file.

I like to annotate (highlight and create notes) when I read on my Kindle, and then I take those annotations and throw them into Obsidian. The issue is that if you ever mess up a highlight or note and then delete it, it doesn't actually get removed from the Kindle clippings file. So this project will remove all of the "incorrect" clippings.

I have the de-duplication algorithm working extremely well and right now I'm working on creating the web app using python/django
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, airlines are definitely tough when it comes to scraping, so I’m expecting a bit of a cat-and-mouse game with their anti-scraping measures.

As for the one-hit pricing model, the idea is to keep it super simple and easy for people to sign up for alerts with minimal hassle. By sticking to specific origin/destination/month combos, I’m also trying to keep the scraping load manageable. I know it might not fit everyone’s needs right now, but it’s a start. I’m open to any ideas on how to make it better!

Did the same thing about the same time - consulted with a composition professor, and he said that he didn't know anyone that was using Finale, so realized it was time to switch after using for 2 decades.

Agreed about the user-friendliness. Dorico is one of the most well thought-out, beautiful pieces of software I've seen. Really like the idea of modes - it's a bit complex at first, but think more software should do this. It's a really good way to separate features into different areas, to prevent the shotgun approach that most pieces of large software use, of just splattering features everywhere.

Still, end of an era.

As a software engineer, DevOps engineer, platform engineer and SRE in a mixed bag, I would say not building monoliths -- instead build a microservice but slightly larger that can still be easily cloneable, scalable and fault tolerant. A mix of monolith and microservice, you may say, and I would like to call that "siloservice".

Silo: A silo is a cylindrical tower used for bulk storage, like grain silos that stand tall near farms. Another kind of silo is harder to see — military silos are underground.

Obviously, you don't need 10 fragmented microservices interdepending on each other, that's one of the biggest overengineering for microservices in real world practices, but you can build multiple "siloservices" that does the same stuff more effectively while getting easy maintenance. I got this inspiration from working with monorepos in the past.
When you cite a source for something, the source should justify the thing you're claiming. The relevant part of your post to the thread was that "The 19th century solution was to develop a bigger breed of horse." It is entirely contrary to what the Wikipedia article says - "The breed was established in the mid-eighteenth century, although its origins are much older".

The purpose of serverless is easily deploy applications without worrying about / managing infra at all. The only reason you don't need to run your own infra with PHP is because it doesn't do anything except the web application. As you noted, it doesn't even do the web-serving. Most serverless application platforms are then paired with hosted databases, hosted queues, etc, so that you don't need to manage those either. But yes, only some of those additional pieces can be described as "serverless", e.g. AWS Aurora is an actual serverless database, vs DigitalOcean's hosted Postgres, which does not scale in a "serverless" way. Regardless, minimal management of the database is required on these platforms.

Dokku in turn is a replacement for those platforms and makes it easy to host your own [insert some part of your platform stack here]. That is the purpose of a PaaS, which is what Dokku is and what PHP certainly is not. Yes, the OP maybe should've said "My favorite personal PaaS", but that is less catchy, and I think calling it a "serverless platform" is close enough to the truth and gets the point across.
Finale was my first notation program, and while I switched to Sibelius out of necessity during college, I never really liked it. Will definitely check out Dorico, heard good things!

> Even among those who claim to "like Shakespeare", they seem to be driven more by wanting to feel "highbrow" rather than any genuine appreciation for the works.

The main problem with Shakespeare is that we are reading something that is supposed to be performed.

A play strongly depends upon the actors to give it life.

I had this driven home when I was reading a script for some play I found particularly particularly boring. We got together to read it aloud for rehearsal, and I uttered some line that caused a couple of chuckles.

Wait, hold the phone! This character is supposed to be funny, and I, the actor, completely missed that from simply reading the script. Suddenly, I was rereading everything with a completely different tone in mind and paid a lot more attention to timing. The character suddenly had life where before it was simply flat.

I think this is what causes the disconnect about Shakespeare. The people who praise Shakespeare are projecting their experience(s) of a play over top of what they are reading while those who do not have that experience cannot understand what is so interesting.
I think the charter-type hunters are probably a statistic irrelevance in hunting in general, but unfortunately, money speaks, even when you don't want it to speak.

No, it leaves every SIKE-protected system in the world exposed to _everybody who reads obscure algebraic geometry papers from 1997._ We got really lucky that the two dorks who do read those papers decided to share their insights.

For all you know, there’s a paper sitting at the Institute For Advanced Study that would let you write a marvelous pq-crystals-shattering Python script, but they’ll never tell you the combination to the safe.

I doubt it would feel like a failure for the person caught and finally sentenced to years in prison after having their whole daily life upturned in a criminal trial. No matter how long they'd been free, they probably would have loved to continue enjoying their ordinary freedom, and suddenly losing it even decades after would probably have hurt much more than just a shrug of "Ah, well at least I only got caught now. cuff me gents".

Which resources will be scarce, and why?

Improved technology + greater demand = more resources become economical to mine. (Our deepest mines are ~5km and have actual humans toiling away in them. Heavier - and more valuable - metals tend to be deeper.)

This planet has a ridiculous amount of water, most of it just needs energy to be treated or desalinized.

We get more energy from the sun than we could even think to use, not even mentioning the gargantuan stores of uranium and thorium.

We have enough space to give every human (not just every family - every individual human person) a large house on a big yard. This wouldn't even cover the earth - we could fit all that in just Ontario.

vi(m) is still the best command line editing tool out there. And I used is almost a dozen times everyday.

But the IDE ship sailed long back. Its just that the modern IDE's simply do a lot out of the box that is just not possible to configure quickly, or well enough outside using packages. Most of the times the packages don't work well with each other.

Like the Python's formatter often interferes with vim's modal editing etc.

With AI, this will take it a level further apart.

The real threat, the known threat to state security is Trump, because he and his followers are crazy.
