I hope you realize that these are research reactors that are not designed to give you a low interval between cycles or produce power. They are meant so clarify some of the open research questions for the likes of ITER/DEMO that will in

Same here. It's amazing how many services you can easily host if they are on PHP and low traffic. The beauty of PHP is that more services consume no additional resources until they are used. This lets you run many many services without

An annotation syntax no outside of doc strings. Something PHP desperately needed. Very similar to Java annotations.

Functional programming is everywhere. Many aspects of for example modern Java also move in the direction of functional programming. Those who never learn it are just stuck writing software in a more complicated and less readable way. Learni

I work for FAANG and making changes to code owned by a team in the US is very common. However I'm from Europe and nobody else around me can review that code.

That is kind of my point. Review capacity is meaningless if external factors require a certain review _latency_. Even if the actual review takes 30 seconds, it does not matter if my reviewer is asleep for the next 8 hours.

None of which works well if your reviewer sits in another timezone and your next business day is their public holiday. Waiting 3 days or more is not an option when I could just comfortably stack my changes and have the whole stack reviewed

What you are describing is quite literally what the intellij "Build Project" button is for.

But that is exactly the point. You want to ensure that disks later sold by your cloud provider do not contain your data in plain. That's the whole point with encryption at rest. It's not supposed to protect you against an attacker

This could be a great tool to verify that none of the files in a /nix/store have been manipulated offline since they are read only anyways.

I think the important thing that did not come across very well is that "wipe and reinstall" with nix is so incredibly painless that doing it is even an option. The same would be very very painful with other distributions. A clean

The salt is usually stored next to the password. The point of a salt is just to make the hash unique to prevent the use of rainbow tables, it's not a separate secret.

I think I could not disagree more. Coupling and cohesion are problems you will have, regardless of the repo approach you take. But a mono-repo gives you a host of incredibly beneficial advantages, especially for larger organisations. Any do

This sentiment seems so weird to me. Can you point to a single enterprise offering where Google is collecting data and using it themselves? Or where it would even make sense to do so? Corporate customers pay a lot more per byte than the fle

I think the real learning here is not to colocate different things in a single GCP project. AFAIK projects don't cost anything so why not create one per service?

Yep, you have no right to HBO, you only have the permission. If you are unsatisfied with your available options, I guess that's your problem not theirs. The only sad thing here is that most people in the US don't have the possibil

If the loss of revenue through piracy is less than the cost of ongoing Linux support, then this is a sensible business decision.

First of all, thanks for linking to the change in policy. I was not aware of the timeline. To address both links: 1) As a user I'm actually happy about the tight integration into calendar and other apps. These necessarily require readi

That is likely a concern not shared by most teenagers. Installing 5 new apps a day to try them out is a complete non-issue for most people.

Only if you consider throwing away the trust of every single partner they have is a good leadership move.

It's actually incredibly easy to print money early on. Take a loan, build 2 airports reasonable far away from each other in the larger initial cities. setup 2-3 planes between them. Wait 15 minutes -> money printer. Money earned is

I have two cards in two separate locations + my phone bound to the same account for mobile payments. Circumstances would have to become pretty extreme for all of these to disappear at the same time.

I'm completely fine with paying with my privacy. I feel like the vast majority of users prefers to look at ads compared to paying for content. Which matches reality where most people don't care if their browser blocks cookies or n

Given the absolutely ridiculous amount of content that is ad-funded, I very much disagree. All of my preferred youtubers and streamers would immediately be without livelihood. Same is probably true for a whole lot of news websites.

At Google, promotion does not change your position, it changes your "Level", which roughly rewards you for having wider-ranging influence as an engineer. You don't get promoted to management or anything like that. You stay an

You can? When did they promise that? What is stopping them from throwing away history next year?
