Are you pitching less documentation or none? It doesn’t seem like codebases are better when the architecture is unwritten.

No problem, we just need to hold a few meetings to define what counts as “quality”, and write it down in some good documentation.

On the other hand, thirty minutes a week seems like a small overhead to pay if you’re concerned a team might otherwise lose focus & direction entirely. Not, to be clear, that they are lazy, but instead that they could be diligently work

Layers of abstraction aren’t automatically bad. Sometimes abstraction even adds performance. There do seem to be a few layers that are responsible for more performance loss and complexity than others, however. For example, Python is great b

It has been popular on this site since very early. I think the audience here exhibits a lot of belief in the power/magic of open source. (It is, after all, a software focused community) It also started to pick up steam right as Intel w

I don’t know all your circumstances, but I have found good charging options matters significantly more than extra capacity. 300 mile range is enough to go 150 miles out into the woods and back, which is a good distance. A midway charge at,

It’s also a little hard to call it a debilitating disorder if 10% of people have it. Pale skin puts you at risk of sunburn, but it’s not considered a skin disorder. Why? I’ll leave it to the reader.

I’m starting to think of it as just one of the many underlying pieces that make people different, and drive people different ways. Like how people with glasses actually are on average smarter. Or like how kids of older parents are more st

Not exactly, if the market was small it wouldn’t be worth AWS’s time to provide a turnkey. Plenty of small operations provide services backed by AWS without getting eaten for that reason.

Nobody digs a ditch or works in a meat packing plant for the meaning it brings to their lives. I’m not some consummate capitalist, but there is a tremendous amount of necessary yet unrewarding work that still has to be done by human hands,

The idea is predicated on economies of scale and low utilization rates typical of local hardware. The success of AWS and Azure show it can be done. (You do have to avoid replacing cheap commodity desktops with exotic bleeding edge servers,

My point is you get a Tesla for many reasons, not just the NACS plug, and if CCS wins you still enjoy all those other things.

those officers were given qualified immunity for violating her First Amendment, Fourth Amendment, and 14th Amendment rights when they arrested and detained her, thus preventing her from holding them accountable in civil court. In the doct

by ip26 4y ago
The rather absolute & uncritical application of qualified immunity does seem like a persistent problem, but that's an issue of implementation, not of the original design document. The Constitution is only strong if the implementati

Since good adapters exist, it's not really a deeply committing bet.

Yeah, with the standard open, if we also assume Tesla opens the supercharger network it’s kind of hard to see a great argument for CCS. Better plug, more users, more chargers. I’m biased, but I’ve also used all three plugs (CCS, J1772, NACS

by ip26 4y ago
That really doesn’t explain all of it, J1772 is not really that big. CCS adds a ton of bulk on top of J1772.

Your parent is theorizing that people in edge medical settings are. For example, an EMT might not be able to give you a transfusion while you lay bleeding in the dirt, because they may not have twenty units of blood to spare in the bus.

The car, the computer, the spreadsheet, the internet - correct me but I believe most of these examples solved clear problems or dramatically accelerated some type of work. Each time, they succeeded because people loved this new tool enough

After reading many resumes and talking to many candidates, it can matter. Many budget state colleges simply don’t have the curriculum, faculty, or clout- at least in my field. This means their graduates are like juniors at higher ranked sch

25,000 employees, that seems insane. They are approaching a 1:1 staff:student ratio.

Remembering when I was applying to colleges, it was understood that inexpensive state colleges were probably 'sufficiently good', and cost effective, but it was impossible to grade that statement. Would it be good enough for your

The Xnm name is that. Each full mode maps to a little less than a doubling of density. https://www.hardwaretimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/TSM... A new metric could be more precise, but Xnm has mi

In that case it seems the real problem is that the killer app hasn’t been found yet.

It makes the most sense to me as multiple distinct labor markets. It’s easy to find skilled programmers in the Silicon Valley labor market, so that’s where a lot of hiring happens even if the prices are higher. Equally talented programmers

Your argument is that propaganda & brainwashing can only win over people who are already extremely crazy?
