> And vertical integration, plenty of it, as it has become the norm again nowadays.

Except, not really. If you work at a startup or business that has to deal with "vertical integration" at-cost, your first goal is to get rid of it. Fly.io, Datadog, managed K8s, all of this stuff is literally first-to-go when scaling a business that needs to be profitable. Business-conscious users know they're being fucked over whether it's Apple, Microsoft or Oracle - you can't market it as "integration" to people that see the monthly bill.

And in the EU, vertical integration from large companies that can EEE their competitors is under extreme scrutiny now. Many execs have exploited it to engender themselves an unfair advantage and deserve the same scrutiny Microsoft got for their "integration" case.

If American governance shows the same competence, "vertical integration" will be the most feared business model of the 21st century and innovation will be put back on the table. For everyone.
They weren't short sighted, they expected we would continue and keep improving the infrastructure. We built some utterly incredible infrastructure in the past (Bridges, highways, dams, reservoirs, aqueducts, etc.) and then people stopped dreaming and stopped building.

As a result we have been living on the infrastructure that our parents and grandparents built while supporting 10x the population. Which is incredible but at some point something has to give.
IANAL, but this seems more like a classic temper tantrum thrown by a big corp over reasonable legislation.

They could offer an API for security relevant scanning for EVERYONE, including their own antivirus software. But that would make the world better, and make the legislation look justified.

It's the exact same thing with the Google Maps integration on Google Search. They could offer an API and a selection of map provider to the user. That would make Google Search better for the user AND enable competition. Instead they threw a temper tantrum and disabled map integration entirely, so they can blame the EU.

What is your definition of fascist? If it includes dictatorial control of the economy, suppression of dissenting opinions, and aggressive persecution of political opposition, Id have an easier time arguing modern progressives are fascists. Off the top of my head.

* Effectively shutting down large swathes of the US economy during COVID, while allowing "essential" business to remain open. Where "essential" is arbitrarily determined based on the state governors political leanings.

* Biden-Harris admin strongly encouraging (ie strong-arming) social media companies to suppress what they deemed "disinformantion".

* Progressive state AGs using legal loopholes and technicalities to prosecute Trump, aka Lawfare. For example, a fraud case for overvaluing real estate properties. A fraud case with no victims that resulted in a $450 million judgment? The textbook definition of excessive fines as defined by the 8th amendment.

* Progressives stated goal to pack the Supreme Court, effectively neutering an entire branch of government. Thereby, consolidating power in the remaining two branches.

You believe people who don't consider Trump a fascist are delusional (close to half the electorate, if we believe the polls)? What actions or policies has Trump implemented that fit under that definition? In short, Trump being a fascist is not self-evident: It is your (and many others) strongly held opinion. One that is rarely backed by more than shallow progressive talking points.
The whole picture will be far more complex. In any case, we will go from the mostly stable system we had for the last 15-20k years to an increasingly more unstable one.

> “We have so many community members within Microsoft who have lost family, lost friends or loved ones,” said Abdo Mohamed, a researcher and data scientist. "But Microsoft really failed to have the space for us where we can come together and share our grief and honor the memories of people who can no longer speak for themselves."

Grief is hard and what's happening in Gaza is tragic, but this is not what the workplace is for. Why is it Microsoft's job to provide the described space?

Maybe this is less of a thing on the coasts, but where I live people have families, friends, churches, bars, clubs, and many other outlets that are designed for this kind of personal reflection and mourning. We don't expect our workplace to provide it for us because we don't live at work. We go into work to earn money to provide means for us to live our lives outside of work. To the extent that we want our coworkers to be involved in those spaces, we invite them to be.

More than anything else what I'm getting from this is that the death of the third space on the West Coast must be well and truly complete, if this kind of line sounds reasonable there.

It looks like Apple's claims were related to the charging of the watch itself... Which brings me to my question of why not use standard USB Type-C charging ports instead of some proprietary charging method? It seems like from the very beginning it is a poor choice, on both parties, to charge a device using a non-standard charging device.

1. That's just one interview, I'm not sure it's actually representative.

2. Even if you think it is, that's just the US media specifically. I agree that they tend to be relatively pro-Israel, especially compared to other countries, but there are other countries.

3. If we accept that this is representative, can we also consider Ta-Nehisi Coates's book itself to be representative of the attitude of "intellectuals" in the US on Israel? As he himself said, he came into the topic biased against Israel, went to the West Bank to "study" the issue for 10 days only, chose not to talk to any Israeli at all to get any other side of the issue, and wrote what is likely to be the highest-selling book this year about the topic.

Not exactly a great example of journalistic rigor, IMO.

So to be clear, my choice of the word relation was because typically people don't think of things like views and CTEs and subselects as "tables", but you can of course use these things in SQL expressions. So tables are relations (not in the mathematical sense, but in the sense that e.g. postgresql documentation uses), but not all relations are tables. In that sense, the things that compose are relations and their operations.

I'm not sure what you have in mind either for query builders or their composition. Like I said, some builders are really just wrappers to rename SQL operations and have a method chaining syntax. Those are always going to compile to obvious, analogous sql (e.g. `Users.filter(_.id==id).map(_.name)` will compile to `select name from users where id=?`. For the most part I think these are fine but maybe redundant. Then there are ORMs that do a bunch of state tracking and might produce multiple statements from one expression. These are usually what people get opinionated about. What's an example of query builder composition that you think can't be written in SQL?

I used to openly hate the UAC box but now I do recognize it as a low cost, high-return feature that interrupts people to force them to recognize that something serious is about to happen. It probably works fine for families and small businesses where it gives non-technical people and opportunity to back out of whatever they were doing, especially if they didn't realize or intend to change something.

No, you have the causality reversed. FFI is a prion disease. The insomnia is a consequence of the damage the prion proteins cause. The prions themselves will kill you, regardless of whether you were able to reproduce the biological effects of sleep in a patient. Insomnia is also also caused by other acute brain illnesses, like rabies.
LOL you should be upvoted as your comment perfectly captures the blind arrogance of the software industry.

You too can see the light and rise above the elitism of computer literacy. You know, there are many smart people that are too prideful to put up with what computer people demand as computer literacy. They suffer in silence, you will not have their loyalty, and they will switch to competing software the moment they are able to.
NixOS has very limited usage, with few companies adopting it for critical or commercial tasks. It is more common in experimental niches.

One of the main issues with nixpkgs is that users have to rely on overlays for a package. This can lead to obscure errors because if something fails in the original package or a Nix module, it's hard to pinpoint the problem. Additionally, the overuse of links in the directory hierarchy further complicates things, giving the impression that NixOS is a patched and poorly designed structure.

As someone who has tried Nix, uses NixOS, and created my own modular configuration, I made optimizations and wrote some modules to scratch my own itch. I realized I was wasting time trying to make one tool configure other tools. That’s essentially what NixOS does through Nix. Why complicate a Linux system when I can just write bash scripts and automate my tasks without hassle? Sure, they might say it’s reproducible, but it really isn’t. Several packages in NixOS can fail because a developer redefined a variable; this then affects another part of the module and misconfigures the upstream package. So, you end up struggling with something that should be simple and straightforward to diagnose.
I'm replying to the comment above. If the article picks a few clients and it happens to work, that is effectively "knowing your clients". At which point, it means you have control over the client/server relationship and if we are trying to simplify by not using load balancers, we might as well simplify things even further, and not use DNS.

It is an absurd train of thought that nobody in their right mind would consider... just like using DNS-RR as a replacement for load balancing.

What a great article! It’s often easy to forget just how flexible and self-correcting the “official” network protocols are. Thanks to the author for putting in the legwork.
It makes sense to have wearables like watches and smart rings charge via wireless inductive charging, because the physical space of even a USB-C port inside a watch is quite limiting for the electronics that can be placed inside the watch, and physically wouldn't fit inside of a ring.
> Deflation is good for people that have most of their net worth in cash and bad for people that ... don't

I don't think the poor or middle class have much net worth in anything.

In particular, my mental model is that the middle class will get wrecked by their student loans or car loans if you purposefully deflated the dollar.

The rich have enough money to prepare for all circumstances, be it inflation or deflation. It's a loss if you're trying to prevent them from gaining more money by simple means like this. In times of deflation they will hoard cash (even international trades like the the carry trade: taking advantage of the difference of inflation between national currencies and economies).

------

In any case: increasing the cost of everyone's debt burdens is almost obviously the wrong move.

I'd go further. Governments and society want to overproduce food for resiliency. Markets aim for efficiency, so you need some amount of subsidies for production.

> legislative meddling in the autonomy of institutions that set American defense strategy is a horrible precedent to set.

This is exactly wrong. Legislators are supposed to intervene when an executive department comes dangerously close to breaking the law. This is doubly so for the military (Congress holds hearings on military action all the time, must authorize nonwar military action beyond 90 days, has special, stricter rules for military appropriations, etc.).

In this specific case, the idea that the US military academies are "autonomous" from Congress is kind of an unserious argument (or, at best misinformed). To get a seat as a student you must get a letter of recommendation from a sitting legislator. All of the generals and admirals, including those in charge of the institutions are required to be nominated and confirmed by the US Congress before they take their positions.
This assumes Microsoft being a singular entity with a single set of values (or even a single set of definitions), which I believe is an incorrect premise. It’s misleading to think of organizations as if they were a single mind. (Not to speak of the fact that it’s quite common even for singular minds to have inconsistent values and beliefs.)
This statement is predicated on redefining the words ownership and debt to fit your arbitrary definition, instead of having them follow their conventional meaning accepted by society - as defined by dictionaries for example.

> Why allow targeting some of them but not all? Either all should be disallowed (for the same reason that race, religion, etc are), or all should be allowed

Easy: as already mentioned advertisers love targeting. On the other hand, considering the current sentiment in society allowing gender and age as targeting category causes much less of an outcry (or even shitstorm) than race and religion. So, to balance earning vs risk for reputation damage the first two categories are allowed for advertising targeting while the latter two are not.
The symbols remain in the final library, necessitating either class exclusions within the scope of a JAR you don't control (which is a terrible idea) or the addition of a dependency which is irrelevant, inert, and has no place in your codebase.

Companies always seemed much more weary of "free software" as compared to open source. Probably because of the ambiguous meaning of free in English, honestly that is one of the reason we have open source as a concept.

Companies like the flexibility in "open source", even companies who release code as GPL rarely talk about "free software", they are open source companies.

If your goal is to get a job locally, and locally people hire for PHP, and you want to learn PHP: Then just learn a little PHP.

Learning another programming language...any language...will make you a better programmer. Even if you never use it.

I have still much time so I can learn anything.

Yes. You have decades. And they will all be decades as an adult. For the sake of example, I will pretend you are 22 and that people become adults at 18. So you have four years of adult experience. Sure you have learned a lot in your four years of adult experience.

But it is but four years out of the forty four you will have in four decades. And those four years are all beginner experience. A lot will change. Optimize for change. Forty years ago, a person in your position would be looking at COBOL, Pascal, C, Fortran, ADA, and Lisp (not Common Lisp, that didn't happen until later (and C was still K&R, not ANSI)).

Don't micro optimize. Learn how to learn. Good luck.

According to the article, intermittent operation is assuming new desalinization technology that needs to be invented:

> Current RO plants cost more like $2000/kW, so they’re both financially and technically unsuited to intermittent operation, which fatigues their membranes. Thermal desalination could achieve radically lower cost, albeit at lower energy efficiencies, so there’s work to be done here designing new, low cost desalination machines that fully exploit the upside of cheap solar PV.

And that’s largely the point of the article. It’s not being done yet, but he thinks it’s technically feasible and could be a game-changer. Big if true.

It’s not something we should plan on until the technology is further developed, but seems like worthwhile R&D to fund.
AI is pretty much a technical term.
