I don't think so. If you're saying that in big projects (e.g. Linux) most developers are paid, sure, but those projects are a drop in the ocean of open source projects. I doubt very much that there are more paid than unpaid OSS developers but neither of us are bringing numbers.
You mean HVAC, lighting, shipping (half across the globe probably) isn't involved in purchasing a new thing?
For someone who just got into game development on Mac, this is very interesting. I'd never heard of this IDE before. Will give it a try.
I do pay for software, even subpar ones like Telerik's controls, for a while.

I used to think I'd just use free open-source software until I became a developer myself.

Now, I believe people should be compensated for their work, even open-source developers who contribute their time and skills for free.

I think you meant Enterprise software that can cost a lot. a developer can't afford that.
I wish that better methods existed than blocking traffic. We probably wouldn’t have a front page story if they didn’t, but they probably also earned the anger of the public they blocked in traffic. The stories in the article make me feel they are being treated unfairly though

> Passival my arse.

Do you see this construction as different?

Wikipedia:

> Another construction sometimes referred to as passival involves a wider class of verbs, and was used in English until the nineteenth century. Sentences having this construction feature progressive aspect and resemble the active voice, but with meaning like the passive. Examples of this would be:

> The house is building. (modern English: The house is being built)

> The meal is eating. (modern English: The meal is being eaten)

> This passival construction was displaced during the late 18th and early 19th century by the progressive passive

( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_passive_voice#Passival )

I think it's fair to call that "long since dead".

> Where are you from? I'm from the UK

California.
I think this is it as well. I have a card, and do 0% payments. It’s not that bad, but I see how it could be confusing.
It’s really important to understand why those are different. CAs are organizational and tightly restricted: I don’t use or have access to my CA’s private key but my SSH key is on every client I use. If I leave the company, you have to check every authorized key file on every server to ensure my keys are no longer present. In contrast, the CA doesn’t need to rotate since I never had access to it and since the CA will set an expiration time on each of the keys I do get it’s probably unusable shortly after my departure even if you missed something.
Thanks for this useful project. Can I trouble you to add a circuit diagram of the latest rev? So much easier than reading text.
VS for Mac was junk. Better off trashing it and pushing people the VS Code route.

I use VS Code daily for .NET development. It's probably 70% of what VS on Windows is, but it works well and I don't need to run a VM for it (if I need some of the in-depth tracing and profiling stuff, I can still fire up the gold standard). VS on Mac was maybe 30%
At least from an aesthetic point of view, I agree. Truckla was actually a good-looking result.

The police will stop you for any random reason, including walking alone in the street at an unusual hour or just to check your bike.

From there, if you have nothing to officially prove your identity you might totally spend a while at the station, and potentially have them kindly escort you to your home so they get a look while you're looking for your passport.

All of this is just mild inconvenience, except it will happen a lot more frequently than losing one's passport.

PS: For the real trouble relative to passports, an embassy can reemit an emergency passport within a day, and you can probably reemit the visa at an immigration branch. It's not fun for sure, but I'm not sure it's real troubles.
I don't agree. This doctrine presumes all of the following:

- String data will be properly encoded
- There is one encoding of strings (UTF-8 usually)
- Validation must occur when string data is created
- Truncating a logical codepoint is never acceptable
- You may not do string things to "invalid" bytes
- Proper encoding is the beginning and the end of validation

None of these things are consistently true. It's a useful practice to wrap validated byte sequences in a type which can only be created by validation, and once you're doing that, `Utf8String` and `EmailAddress` are basically the same thing, there's no reason to privilege the encoding in the type system.

In rem jurisdiction may be most familiar to people from civil forfeiture, where cases are captioned things like U.S. v.

I mean, having a web, worker, cache, db, and search as separate things doesn't seem that crazy?

While of course you can often get away with just a web with sqlite, pretty much any company of scale I've been at maintain those all as separate things, with separate search as the most optional.

What do you feel about the setup described seems overly complicated?
Fuck, no. Everyone's free to make better tooling, but don't standardize it. There's no point. It'll only lead to further fragmentation. Libraries and frameworks will be split between plain JS and whatever this new version will be called. Just freeze the language and be done.
No, they used a semi-custom chip known as an uncommitted logic array (ULA). It was basically a bunch of building blocks on a die that were designed once for a variety of possible applications, and then reconfigured by the factory to customer's spec. The idea was that most of the design work only needed to be done once, so cranking out customer-specific ASICs was cheaper than a 100% custom design.

Now we have FPGAs, so this approach is pretty much obsolete.
You are right there is no single national case that clearly ruled in either way, but the status quo is that it's de facto ok. Adjacent case law made white room reverse engineering & API re-implementation "ok" de jure, which is why most storage vendors - including very large ones - are confident enough to implement the S3 protocol without securing a license from Amazon first.

Edit: none of the large companies (except Oracle) are foolish enough to pursue a rule that declares APIs as falling under copyright because they all do it. In Google v. Oracle, Microsoft files briefs support both sides after seemingly changing their mind. In lower courts, they submitted an amicus brief supporting Oracle, then when it got to SCOTUS, they filed one supporting Google, stating how disastrous it would be to the entire industry.

MQTT does have its nuances, and diving into the specifications is sometimes required to grasp all the options fully. That said, for most cases, simply focusing on the API for the library you're using should suffice. It sounds like the real issue you're facing is more with the library than the protocol itself.

If you're open to using Lua, you might find this client library more straightforward: https://realtimelogic.com/ba/doc/en/lua/MQTT.html. It’s designed to be simple to use and works with the BAS runtime, which supports many platforms, including microcontrollers like the ESP32: https://realtimelogic.com/downloads/bas/ESP32/

Dark matter does not mean "we are in the dark about this," at all.

It's astronomy. It means "anything that is not shining like a star but we can detect it via inference." Light matter is stars. Dark matter can include MACHOS: neutron stars, black holes, brown dwarfs, rogue planets. No new physics required for MACHOs, as opposed to WIMPs.

I go pretty heavy on Jetbrains products, but they have stirred up the dev community a few times chasing things seen as investor friendly. In particular when they shoved their AI plugin as a required plugin with carried an obnoxious upsell nag. In general they've also spread themselves out across a ridiculous number of products where I'd prefer if they just focused on making their current stuff work (and not discontinue useful things like AppCode). CLion was practically unusable with the Mac toolchain for refactoring for a long time until they released the Nova backend. Fleet has been in public preview forever as a direct contender to VSCode and they spent a lot of work on it, incomplete, and then just let it sit there with minor stuff like getting themes after three years.

There is also a market for stocks that trade on different exchanges, resulting in fleeting differences in price between exchanges. Those who learn of price moves first can take advantage of such differences. In such cases, all you need to transmit is the current stock price. The local machine can then decide to buy or sell.
> Now they are european. They started as fully Russian company.

The heavily populated parts of Russia, including the part where JetBrains was operating, are in Europe. (Russia’s not part of the EU, obviously, but “European” and “EU” don’t mean the same thing.)
I will take a look, but right now I would be skeptical of any such "100% asm" "leak", considering how easy it is to get a lightly commented listing. My position is indefensible, so no point arguing though.

> C didn't start showing up in BIOS until the UEFI era (Tianocore etc.).

"Showing up" is an understatement, since Tianocore is almost all C. And we didn't switch from 100% asm to 99% c overnight.

sorry a bug took me down, so could not reply earlier. Thank you for your reply and a few follow-up questions and observations.
1. I do agree with you on the challenge between "feeling" vs "what i actually want". Is this about spending more time with the report consumer to understand what they want to see? Or is there something more?
2. How did you solve this problem? I would love to learn how you addressed this, despite all the struggles.
3. If you were to revisit this same problem today, what would you do differently?

> but parasites like AirBnB and similar companies making a killing off offering apartments 5x above normal asking price to rich nomads who will say "wow, it's so cheap!" without realizing they're being ripped off, and killing neighborhoods by driving rent prices up.

The parasites in this case are the landlords, not AirBnB. And they're the one driving the rent prices up, not the renters.

Why does everybody refuse to adress the elephant in the room? Because they have parents and uncles who live by exploiting young workers for rent, and don't want to hurt their feelings?
I think you're missing my point: you are saying that it is one of the benefits, but they don't because it isn't one. Containers are not a security solution for running untrusted code. You saying they are does not make it so.

> And if the kernel is shared with the host, that's a read-only share.

No, it's not, the kernel is reading and writing files constantly for the container. A bug in the kernel could be exploited to break the sandbox, which isn't possible in a true VM.

Intensity or volume: the role of physical activity in longevity
I find this topic very interesting. On one hand, I am sure that every person reading this has run into a ‘bug’ introduced because of a dev/prod mismatch. On the other hand, the only way to get a total match is to either pay an obscene amount of money or roll everything yourself (which will also have cost, much of which can never be recovered).

As an example, I can build something, deploy it on my own and create a near one to one match. But that means building everything and never using a managed service. If the application interfaces with another tool like Salesforce, do we have multiple instances for every single developer?

Or, do we roll our own CRM?

Matching is great but in a managed world it’s very expensive.

Who is doing the lockouts ? Seems to be Uber and Lyft Corporate as opposed to NYC. If so, that seems to be an FTC Issue. Or is there some law in NYC to help taxi drivers.

FWIW, in NYC I always take a cab due to regulations cab drivers have. It may be a bit more expensive but not that bad. If I lived there ? Maybe I would reconsider.
I use Visual Studio from work and personally subscribe to JetBrains.

For those developing commercial software on a budget, Visual Studio Code is an excellent option.

Although it lacks some features of JetBrains and Microsoft tools, pairing the .NET CLI with VS Code can still deliver impressive results.

if you can afford $10 monthly, integrating GitHub Copilot with VS Code can elevate it to a fancy, lightweight IDE
My 70+ year old aunt and 75year old mom (at the time) were using the very first (heavy and clunky) iPad. It was a device that immediately appealed to certain people for who full on computing was too much, when all they wanted to do was reading newspapers, websites, watching photos.

I cannot see this with a VR headset. It's a very geeky limited market, no matter the price point. But ESPECIALLY at Apple's price point.
I remember seeing it back then, and playing it for quite awhile. Great game, thank you!

Some very clever people have architectected an effective scam to prevent the democratic system from solving this. And I'm not referring to a republicans vs democrats debate about free socialized care vs hands off privatization. I'm talking about little steps that chip away at the problem like the one you described. Or forcing them to pay first, and only later have a debate about it. Or holding insurance liable for injury resulting from denying coverage. There is plenty of room for improvement and yet the representatives manage to accomplish nothing along these lines.

I agree with you about not just seeing raw numbers or some kind of trend line, but get more analytical insights into what is really happening with the data and the systems feeding that data. However, I am also skeptical that most humans are terrible at understanding stats so any information based on statistical analysis must be dumbed down to ELI5 level so most report consumers understand.

I didn't realize that was a thing people thought. I know smoking screws up your sense of taste but I assumed the prevailing thought was that something about nicotine or some other part of smoking just curbs hunger.
In the 1980s and 1990s there was a ton of very interesting work done on deeply thought out user-centric software designed to augment human intelligence and give people maximum control over what they were doing while still being approachable. The Smalltalk stuff was some of it, but there was some pretty spectacular stuff back in the old Windows 3.x, macOS classic, and even MS-DOS days where apps would interact richly and you had document-centric customizable work flows. You even had things like (gasp) composability of applications in GUIs.

I mean look at this stuff you could do on a machine with 256KiB of RAM and an 8086: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMUT9TEoe4Y&pp=ygUYbXMtZG9zI...

All of this was completely abandoned and forgotten because there's no money in it. Make software like that and there's no moat, and make it local and people will pirate it. Lock it down in the cloud and lock down the data and people will pay you.

That which gets funded gets built. We get shit because we pay for shit. People won't pay for good software because the flexibility and user-centrism of good software allows them not to.
I am pretty sure this was one of the advertised strength of Starlink. Technically the journey is a bit longer, but because you can rely on the full speed of light you still come out ahead.

No, Kramnik deserved a ban because he was going after not-well-connected, young, up-and-coming players who have no other recourse to defend themselves. Nakamura made it very clear that he was not going to tolerate this because it jeopardizes the future of the game.

Niemann was already an admitted cheater who had been previously sanctioned for his activities. Carlsen’s accusations against him may have been unfounded for the specific game in question but Niemann’s reputation was already blemished. Niemann’s lawsuit was inexcusable though, as it was essentially a SLAPP [1] designed to hinder everyone’s efforts to get cheating out of chess. Thankfully the lawsuit was unsuccessful and Niemann continues to play chess.

This is usually because the software you pay for yourself has licensing terms that don’t allow commercial use or reimbursement. See the JetBrains personal license terms itself. Understandably, the company will find it easier and cheaper to forbid use than hire a lawyer to check each license for each software that each employee wants to use.
Those are getting compromised too—not a complete solution.
