That is the point of the banter: to see how you handle stressful situations.

Women don't understand this, but nearly all men do.

Why? For every accident, there are around twenty near misses. For every near miss there are several situations that could have gone bad very quickly unless the person on the spot remains calm and acts rationally.

"Apple delivered products that transformed their respective categories" of Apple products.

For a majority of the people of the world most of the Apple products are irrelevant, because they do not fulfill any of their necessities better than the non-Apple products.

There is only one Apple product developed after 2000 which has really transformed its category when also considering non-Apple products: the iPhone, which has led everybody else to imitate its user interface in mobile phones.

Besides the iPhone, there has also been a second innovation introduced by Apple after 2000 that had a significant influence on others. After more than a decade of stagnation in computer displays after the transition from CRTs to LCDs, which had resulted in a lower resolution in displays instead of a higher resolution, the introduction and intense marketing of the Apple "Retina" displays has determined all the manufacturers of laptops and monitors to finally raise the resolution of their devices, resulting in the transition to 4k screens.

Between 1990 and 2000, the most important influence of Apple over the entire world was their cooperation with Microsoft in typeface and multimedia file formats and rendering, which has resulted in de facto standards like the TTF font files.

> I think nobody really talks about this, but unless you have a docker-compose.yml that includes everything you need for local development (...)

Is this a problem?

I mean, in this scenario docker compose serves two main purposes: launch a few mock services, and configure those services according to your needs. This means configuring them to consume services already deployed to a cloud environment of your choice. This is something you control.

Then all that's left is the service (or set if services) you need to modify. You run those locally and configure them to consume a mix of the mocked services and the services deployed to a cloud environment.

> (...) it's increasingly more likely that you'll end up coupling things to Kubernetes to such a degree that running without it (and its abstractions) will become more effort than a person can muster.

That coupling can only happen if you intentionally add it yourself.

If you need to run your services in isolation, you will be more mindful of the need to not introduce that sort of coupling.

Looks like this is an issue with a a third party update client being confused by a potential misclassification in Microsoft's side about the update (security update vs upgrade).

What I'm most surprised by myself is that there doesn't seem to be an option to revert this according to the comments. I'm pretty sure consumer Windows allows downgrades for upgrades installed in this manner, I can't imagine the pain it'd be to need to manually undo all the damage after an unintended upgrade using automated tooling!

You're confusing things. Just because Java addressed the deployability problem for Java applications before containerization was even a word, this does not mean that deploying a JVM per service is a bad idea. Just think about it for a second. Why do you need to deploy and scale services independently? Do you mention the JVM in your response? No.

That's most definitely a reference to the comitees Mozilla is part of, i.e. the W3C, but never actually meaningfully influence their decisions. Google just does whatever it wants, and the rest need to chase their implementation or become less relevant as website start using the new features.

I talked to a scientist who works on sonificantion over a cofee once. Whats interesting is, that they keep finding applications where sonification is superior to visualisation. it boils down to continuous monitoring being more efficient via an audio channel, because humans are not really able to focus on a monitor without occasional distractions. If you do the sonification right, its also easier to detect subtle changes over time.
OEMs like it when it's them buying the cheap RAM chips and getting the juicy profits from huge mark-ups, not so much when they have to split the pie with Intel. As long as Intel cannot offer integrated RAM at price equivalent to external RAM chips, their customers (OEMs) are not interested.

You are contradicting yourself. If there's anything that requires studying and preparation, that's leetcode.

Also, "memorize and regurgitate how to architect a link shortener" is also known as learning and knowing the basics of systems architecture and software architecture. That's an odd way of criticising others for being more competent than you.

> my question is "why do you need to set up the third party linters when they're so critical to the correctness of your program" really.

No doubt the same reason it is also critical in Haskell (see comment about isLoggedIn function): Developers not knowing what they are doing.

If you work within the idioms and generally accepted programming practices this isn't a problem. It only becomes a problem when you get a developer who wants to "go their own way" without understanding why the norms exist. The linter is a crutch to support their "bad habits".

I can't help but feel this is a very shortsighted strategy for buyers. The world is pretty unstable at the moment, and throwing a huge industry in the hands of China for the sake of getting a cheaper/bigger ("I want MORE for LESS") car, seems awfully risky.

It also seems to be in direct contradiction with the whole nationalist agenda that is sweeping across the west these days...

I think you are right. BYD and other companies won't stay in China either. They'll be opening up factories in Turkey, Mexico, etc. This will start creating issues for incumbents in most markets. The US and EU might protect their domestic markets with tariffs for a while. But their exports are going to suffer. And short of imposing tariffs on lots of other countries and suspending related trade agreements, cars will still come into domestic markets via those new factories. And inevitably, some companies will start falling over and might fall in the hands of foreign investors or disappear completely.

It's a repeat of the emergence of Japanese car manufacturers in the eighties. The same dynamics are at play here: the Chinese products are simply better and cheaper. And contrary to the popular believe that's not just subsidies. Those foreign factories in Turkey, Mexico, and elsewhere will be producing low cost vehicles. The cost difference is the competitive advantage Chinese companies now have. They might have gotten there via subsidies but now that they have this cost advantage, it's there to stay. To compete, other companies will have to address their cost issues and their R&D deficit. There's no way around it. Producing more costly vehicles is just going to continue to price them out of the market.

Delay tactics don't work. Tariffs don't work. Delaying investments, doesn't work either. That about sums up the current attitude of a lot of the legacy companies. Dragging their feet, reducing investments, and lobbying for tariffs to protect their businesses. To survive, they would need to reverse their strategy and shift all effort towards producing low cost EVs. There's plenty of demand. But not for overpriced products.
