There was this one time, I was interviewing for a devops position. They didn't have anyone like that despite growing to a fairly large organization, and ultimately, balked on my asking salary. The organization's notion of devops

How is this novel compared to say, Chef Habitat? Vercel might be able to pull this off... I would be curious to see how they figure their way around the design principle of "complexity has to live somewhere".

Guess I was wrong. It’s fixed point, and also what you said — COBOL defaults to it. It still makes it easier to write software that need to do a lot of calculations like that. https://medium.com/the-technical-archaeologist&#

I grew up hearing COBOL as a joke language, until one day, I learned that COBOL has the most accurate arbitrary precision math, surpassing modern languages. This is crucial for financial applications. When I then think about how it doesn’t

Yup. It’s more about the connections the inhabitants of an ecosystem has to each other. Something that yields something edible or useful for humans is also a part of this. Our role as humans is not some ideal, “untouched”, “pristine” Nature

Native plants and species are already suited to the area, so it is a great place to start. What I am finding though, is that the main difference between an invasive species, and a native species that is vigorous, is that the native species

I’m glad to see these ideas starting to get into the mainstream. From homeowners opting out of monospecies lawns, to people apply permaculture design to urban spaces, to guerilla gardeners reclaiming abandoned urban wastelands, there are a

You are right. Thank you for respecting it. I was trying to convey that the frame in which we are approaching this is off, so the arguments I brought up falls outside of what you are saying. I have a bad habit of not indicating that I am ch

This parenting style doesn’t necessarily save parents time. For example, to implement this: https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2018/06/09/6169288... It means involving toddlers into helping i

People here seem to think that this parenting style means to let kids roam around unsupervised, and that is all there is too it. But it is not exactly the same. It still requires time, thought, and energy on the part of the parents. Example

This parenting style isn’t exactly the same as unsupervised parenting. It is still very mindful, and can still require a lot of thought and effort on the part of the parent, something that poorer families might not have the time, energy, or

He didn’t give me details, and even if it were, it would be highly situational. There is nothing concrete here. If you understand the underlying principles, you would be able to broadly and deeply apply it in many contexts. It is better to

Iterating OODA faster is not the same as getting inside the adversary’s OODA loop. That’s a common misconception. It’s more that, you are able to drive the adversary’s OODA loop so that they start doing things in a way you control. Sometime

by hosh 4y ago
OODA is a lot more than that. Since it is something developed for adversarial interactions, you’re also talking about disrupting or overwhelming the adversary’s OODA. Or another way is feeding the OODA bad intel (tainting their observations

That’s the No Self realization. I only had a brief glimpse of it, including the weirdly simultaneous panic. It did not happen during a meditation session, and it was brief. I remember a podcast interview with Adyashanti about this. A lot of

Not really. This is more to replace kubelet if you want something with an even smaller footprint than k0s.

I set up and deploy infra at my company, and I do it with Kubernetes. I like the self-healing aspects of Kubernetes, but even something like k0s has a large, 1GB footprint that I don't want to have for my self-hosted personal projects.

There’s a natural cycle to life. Our civilization is set up with beliefs around continuous and sustained production and growth … yet there are cycles in businesses and economies as well. Being able to move with the cycles instead of fightin

Tailwind looks like it goes back to the days when people use in-line styles. I mean, it would be a lot more useful if people used the Tailwind classes as primitives to compose site-specific components, which can be further changed locally.

While nuclear power can give us the most bang for the buck, it's main flaw has to do with the degree of centralization it requires. It takes the infrastructure of an advanced civilization to not only design, build, and maintain the fac
