If you memorize the documentation I suppose there's no problem with it, but even then there's confusing things from the beginning design approach.

Like, reset vs revert vs restore, using three similar starting synonyms for different operations.

Reset is particularly confusing because it sounds incredibly destructive, but if you do a soft 'git reset', it just moves the "changes to be committed" to be not staged for the commit.

Then, if you change a single flag (--hard) it is destructive, instead erasing all those changes from your disk.

And there's a reason nobody reads the docs, because they're laid out confusingly at first glance to an unfamiliar person.

If I go to git-scm.com, click docs, the first suggestion is the reference manual. The first guide is on "gitattributes" which gives no philosophy or context as to what it is even used for. Ok, maybe, I'll just check the complete list of git commands... and it starts talking about porcelain and plumbing. Nope, thats not what I need. Maybe try the link "git" under Setup and Config. There the description finally links to a useful "gittutorial" page.

The gittutorial even has some confusing or specific terminology that makes git seem hard. From the beginning of importing a new project "Assume you have a tarball project.tar.gz with your initial work"... why do we need to refer to tar at all, and it doesn't even do the credit of explaining the tar xzf command or what that tarball is. It could easily say 'assume you have a directory', which is the more common case and be 200% more simple.

I disagree that social media is a vice. There's nothing inherently wrong with better communication. Although it's hard for me to see the value (or appeal) in TikTok.
As I understood your post: You said the US is worse because "Europeans" are willing to relocate to the US. And also that China is better because they are not likely to relocate to neither Russia nor China.

Is that correct?
When we measure sound pressure, we measure it in log (so, every 3dB is a doubling in sound pressure), but our hearing perceives this as a linear scale

Its the other way around : we perceive logarithmically so we created the logarithmic decibel scale
Hah yea. Julia's math syntax is the best I've seen, of any language. I wish rust and python etc had something similiar! Killer feature.
Unlike fuel gauges, land surveys, and radar, fast-breaking news of explosions carries a significant risk of mistransmission or inaccuracy. They might know when/where the explosion occurred, but not necessarily have much confidence on how fast debris might have been ejected and in which directions.

>that sentence makes it seems like Congress could do anything!

Yeah, it's the perhaps most powerful clause in the constitution. A large number of laws are formed like "[actual law ...] in commerce." That is the hook needed for a lot of laws to be constitutional. Technically those laws only apply to interstate or international commerce.

There are even supreme court cases discussing this:

>Congress uses different modifiers to the word “commerce” in the design and enactment of its statutes. The phrase “affecting commerce” indicates Congress’ intent to regulate to the outer limits of its authority under the Commerce Clause. [...] Considering the usual meaning of the word “involving,” and the pro-arbitration purposes of the FAA, Allied-Bruce held the “word ‘involving,’ like ‘affecting,’ signals an intent to exercise Congress’ commerce power to the full.” Ibid. Unlike those phrases, however, the general words “in commerce” and the specific phrase “engaged in commerce” are understood to have a more limited reach. In Allied-Bruce itself the Court said the words “in commerce” are “oftenfound words of art” [...] The Court’s reluctance to accept contentions that Congress used the words “in commerce” or “engaged in commerce” to regulate to the full extent of its commerce power rests on sound foundation, as it affords objective and consistent significance to the meaning of the words Congress uses when it defines the reach of a statute.[0]

> So cooling a living space is always more costly than heating a living space

Nope. That's precisely wrong. Tl;dr heating normally uses less efficient technology than cooling and has to work across a higher temperature difference.

In Alberta or Minnesota, where the delta in the winter can be as high as 60 degrees centigrade (-40 outside, +20 inside) but only 20 degrees centigrade at most in the summer (+45 outside, +25 inside), heating is far more costly. Even accounting for waste heat from appliances. Most heating is done with furnaces, not heat pumps. Air conditioners are heat pumps and are 3x as efficient as a furnace. There are also less energy intensive cooling methods - shading, fans, swamp coolers - commonly used in the developing world and continental Europe.

On the other hand in a place with warm winters and hot summers, such as south east Asia, obviously cooling is more expensive because heating is unnecessary.

The highest temperature ever recorded is around 60 degrees centrigrade, a mere 23 degrees above the human body. The low temperature record is like -90, 127 degrees below body temperature. Needing to heat large deltas is way more common than needing to cool high deltas. And cooling is done with heat pumps, which are more efficient than the technologies used most commonly for heating (resistive or combustion).

> when cooling a space, you have to cool everything, regardless of if it’ll impact the comfort of the occupants.

Keep the house at 25 degrees centigrade and run a ceiling fan. 23 if you're a multi-millionaire. You'll be far more comfortable outdoors if your house is closer to the outside temperature. The North American need to have sub-arctic temperatures in every air conditioned space in the summertime is bizarre (don't even get me started on ice water).

How would that collusion work?
I guess he means that in order to achieve incremental compilation they need to write their own code generation and linker for every architecture and format. This is needed because incremental compilation here doesn't just mean storing object files in a cache directory (which has always worked that way). They also want to cache every analyzed function and declaration. So they have to serialize compiler state to a file. But after analysis is done, LLVM will start code generation from the beginning (which is the time expensive thing, even in debug builds)
So they were right about banning the US social media platforms then, right? Because according to this court opinion, having foreign social media is a menace to national security. It's funny to see Americans argue for a great firewall lol.
PG just wrote a blog, it shows the history of how students in the 1960s holding Mao's Red Book (pun intended) was the origin of the "woke" thing.
I think you have successfully discovered meta-education on dark patterns.
They will soon!

Lmao these people are rubes. It's like every other bs "national security" argument.

Expect Yandex, VK, RT, Sputnik, SCMP, etc. to be banned as well under similar pretenses.

"Comrades! We can not let these Western dogs infect our proud Soviet minds with this 'Radio Free Europe'!"
Look at what foreign adversaries are already actively doing: working to turn Americans against each other. Social media is the perfect tool to spread discord. Russia has troll farms that create fake news stories, manipulated photos, and incendiary memes targeted at both sides of the political spectrum. They've even orchestrated in-person protests and counter-protests to those protests, though those efforts have been less successful. Now imagine that instead of merely using fake user accounts to this end, an adversary controlled an entire social network, including its algorithm and its content guidelines and could tailor manipulative content on an individual basis.
> 2. Avoid `reset --hard` at all costs

Sounds like you might be looking for `git reset --keep`
Nope, it's not self-sabotage - the worker is sitting there consuming the events from redis, and then pulling in the dependent data from the DB and populating and maintaining its caches (and marshalling & unmarshalling the necessary data) so that it can actually do work on the events as needed.

Obviously one could certainly optimise it more... which is why we did, by rewriting it in Rust, and adding in smarter pubsub, etc.

However, the key thing is that for anything other than huge deployments, this isn't a bottleneck. But for huge deployments, it becomes one. Meanwhile, we're hoping to use $ from Synapse Pro to fund perf improvements for normal FOSS Synapse and Matrix - e.g. algorithmically improving state resolution to be more performant; finishing faster room joins; improving federation traffic routing etc... so that smaller deployments get faster anyway without needing the faster workers.
In congress, with another law.
I'm not naive enough to believe we live in a true democracy. IMO this cancelling was good for 2 reasons : first I believe Georgescu is a nutjob, second.. if there was any doubt that we don't live in a true democracy now it's pretty clear.

And considering the level of education of most of the Romanian population I believe having "true" democracy would destroy the country. I understand this may not be a popular opinion but I'm trying to be realistic here lol
We definitely advocated for it (at all stages of our interaction with Tofino -- but especially strenuously after the part was killed), and it does have impact on us in that it was one of the few parts of our stack that we couldn't open (and now we can -- stay tuned there). We remain big believers in P4 and want to see P4 compilers for other switching silicon, so getting an open is a big step in that direction. I would also say that what Intel did here beat our expectations, and includes many aspects of their software that we didn't think they would make available. So even though we will be moving beyond Tofino, getting their software open source is great and we're very supportive -- and if anything, it just sharpens for us what a poor strategic decision it was to kill Tofino.
Because if the Chinese government actually is using it or plans to use it as a propaganda tool there is no amount of money they would accept. The fact that it wasn't sold to a US company offers credibility to the fact that the product is useless to China if it's controlled by a US company and they wanted to keep the data they learned about addiction to themselves. Also probably wanted to build some outrage among young users for the government banning their favorite app

The sell or be banned part, instead of just banned, was most certainly lobbied for by the US social media companies hoping to get it on the off chance it had served its purpose, wasn't as useful as China had hoped, or the slim chance they really did just want Americans to copy dance trends.
Like such cannot be enforced for example against foreign radio stations or print publications.

Then how do court justify that it stands in the case of an app.
Neglecting black education was a political decision with an economic component, in that it helped support the system of slavery, and later kept jobs that required education segregated. Siphoning tax dollars from black communities to use elsewhere (instead of to support their educational institutions) would be another aspect of this phenomenon.
I'm not sure how long it will last with Zukerberg and Musk openly threatening the EU.
I am not sure. I am unfamiliar with the consumer camera segment.

I have heard about some "firmware enhancements" like Magic Lantern or CHDK for Canon which, if I understand correctly, are some kind of extensions that could be loaded by the camera's main firmware on startup and then provide additional functionality.

It is not a custom firmware. But it offers similar functionality.
That’s not now policy works in the US. We aren’t a direct democracy. Policy proposals don’t require “most Americans” to care about it. It only requires most LEGISLATORS to care.

And legislators have zero requirement to explain to the public the real reason a policy proposal happens. The language used in a bill doesn’t have to be the reason it exists. This is how lobbying works.

> this could just be the beginning of our society beginning to scrutinize these platforms.

I think politicians have scrutinized american social media and they're 100% fine with the misery they induce so long as they are personally enriched by them.

> There's a certain historic symmetry with how opium was traditionally used in China

TikTok isn't anywhere near as destructive as opium was. Hell, purely in terms of "mis/disinformation" surely facebook and twitter are many times worse than TikTok.

Surely the appropriate modern parallel is fentanyl.

This sounds like one of those "and also" things. I'd say you add fire suppression AND ALSO try more to reduce leaks. It's got to be really difficult to build huge massive tanks that hold oxygen and other gases under pressure (liquid methane too will have some vapor of course). Are leaks inherently going to happen?

This is meant to be a human rated ship of course, how will you reduce this danger? I know this stuff is hard, but you can't just iterate and say starship 57 has had 3 flights without leaks, we got it now. Since I have no expertise here, I can imagine all kinds of unlikely workarounds like holding the gas under lower pressure with humans on board or something to reduce the risk.
Series B and Automating Code - We've raised $105M to further our mission.
SCOTUS fully agreed that the law violates the First Amendment as written, it wasn't even a question at any level from the district court on up.

The decision was balanced on strict or intermediate scrutiny. At the distict court level it was observed that the case should probably be decided via intermediate scrutiny, but they upheld the ban under strict scrutiny due to "national security concerns".

The SCOTUS didn't bother with strict scrutiny or national security, and decided that the correct analysis was intermediate scrutiny and that the ban merely needed to serve a compelling government interest (which regulation of applications controlled by foreign adversaries meets).

It's entirely about speech, the only question in the entire case as decided at the district and SCOTUS level was speech. Whether the government should be allowed to violate the 1st Amendment due to compelling interest is everything the case turns on.

Personally, I think using intermediate scrutiny here is wild.
Pretty much fits. It probably wouldn't be such an issue if they were just human.
The US gov will do nothing to regulate US owned social networks because they're doing for free the work that the government wants to do itself: collect as much data as possible from each individual. The separation between Meta's collected data and government is just one judicial request away. That's why the US gov hates other countries having this power.
You do know both can be bad right? You don't need to pick the lesser evil.
Nice game! Seems like someone already gave the feedback about the lack of time to read the explanation before the game progressed automatically.

The first amendment doesn't apply here. You can say whatever you want anywhere else on the internet. You can print what you want anywhere you want. You can distribute what you want anywhere you want. Bytedance refused to sell TikTok so it's being shut down. They could divest, but they didn't.
This seems willfully naive.

As with any market, there will be a price that the market cannot bear; and if your 'floor', your minimum policy price offering, is too high for your market, then insurance (as an asset class) no longer has product-market fit.

QED.
It wasn't particularly entertaining and was well overdone.
This is great advice and I've seen it work for a few people. (Not specifically for cybersecurity.)

The short version is when people can ease sideways to a completely new role at their current employer. The longer version involves getting a new job doing the same thing, but at a company that does a lot more of the thing you want to do. Initially you do the thing you were doing before, but there's more opportunity to shift sideways when you get a good rep.
What does intermediate scrutiny mean?

> a compelling national interest (which in turn seems based on speculation about the future, rather than a factual analysis of events).

I keep seeing this claimed, but these aren't hypothetical risks. China has managerial control over ByteDance. China has laws that require prominent companies to cooperate in their national security operations, and they've recently strengthened them even more. China has already exercised those powers to target political dissidents. This is the normal state of affairs in Chinese business; this is how things work there. It isn't like the west where companies have power to push back, or enjoy managerial independence.
Illegal seems fine as shorthand though. Same with housing -- "illegal" to build in many instances. Not technically illegal of course, but enough hurdles makes it effectively so.

Core doesn't index the metadata so it uses less RAM for higher cardinality data. However, if you have 100M series and you're writing to all of them at the same time, you're going to need some amount of RAM just to buffer it all up and then ship it off to storage as Parquet. The Enterprise product has a compactor that creates indexes as it goes, but those indexes are lighter weight than those in v1 and v2. Also, users can specify which columns they want to appear in those indexes, so they can leave out high cardinality ones if they want to save on RAM. In v3 you can brute force the query against high cardinality data, unlike v1 & v2, which would eat up a ton of RAM to do so.
Perhaps algorithmically weaponized "speech" by bad actors with bad intentions, especially controlled by adversaries, doesn't work, and was wholly unpredicted or accounted for by the founders.

(b) the Chinese Communist Party’s objectives —which include weakening, destabilizing, and impoverishing the United States— are even less aligned with the interests of American citizens.

TikTok is a foreign company that was given permission to operate in the United States.

We give and take permission from foreign companies to operate here all the time and it's not a conflict with our Constitution.

Let's take American sanctions, for example.

Are you going to argue that Russia's Gazprom's right to free speech is stifled too? Or do they just have to create a Gazprom social media app so they can become a free speech platform and now "sorry 1st Amendment can't do anything"? Can Iran open up an office in San Francisco and create an app and share a few videos and then share tips for making bombs and encourage Americans to not take vaccines and not send their kids to school and to eat laundry detergent pods?

This doesn't justify one way or the other any other tech company's behavior, but if they are an American company owned by Americans the rules always have been and always will be different (as they should be).

> Make no mistake. This, at best, is just a temporary pitstop, because, as time progresses, more and more will chosen to be 'disfavored'/'disallowed' ( I have no way of knowing what euphemism will be used to describe it ) to operate in society. Should be fun.

We can just ban any foreign owned social media company from operating in the United States. But I don't think you are wrong. Americans (and people around the globe) are extremely addicted to social media and whether that's Meta or TikTok they'll find a way to feed that addiction even as it damages their mind. I think it would be good to ban all social media across the globe. We'd all be more free and better off for it.
