Its pretty hard to trust a lot of the eng content on the web right now; so much blogspam, self promo stuff from frankly underqualified people who are trying to build up a profile to get hired. Somehow I still don't feel that way about

Just read that article; very informative. The TLDR is that, especially during GC, P99s and response times are notably worse in Go than Rust. Makes sense.

How "large" is the garbage collector penalty? My understanding is that the Go GC is significantly more efficient than for example JS's mark/sweep approach. Apples to oranges for sure, but I am interested in better unders

Could you please expand on this a bit? What are some example services that would be better written in go vs rust?

They literally won't sign an NDA, especially at that early of a stage.

Why shouldn't they be able to know/inspect/scan the content that they are physically storing? I'm genuinely curious the logic. From my perspective, they're a company providing a service and can determine the terms u

There must be 1,000 cases like this for every one that is prosecuted. The crypto community did the research / job for the FBI here.

How do these intel chips standup against the current M1 lineup? I'd love to swap away from Apple to Framework but I gotta say, the current Pro M1 is pretty remarkable. Is intel in the same ballpark with the 12th gen?

Captcha breaking is SO easy these days; even the modern captchas are easy to defeat.

You can't see how improving educational programs specific to climate change benefits the public?

Is there any negative externality in this particular version? Opening a new school to educate future generations such that they contribute new solutions seems totally positive to me.

Why criticize someone for caring about their legacy when they're making an enormous contribution to the public good? Wrong lens. Who cares about his ego when he's making a real impact?

Taking private money and making it public for the purpose of combating a global crisis is objectively a good thing. Cynical paranoia is not helping.

> They don't even have a nuclear engineering department! Why criticize that they're establishing something on the basis of not having something?

We swap jobs all the time and there is no expectation of permanence; not a very good analogy.

That isn't how these mechanisms work from a legal standpoint and ignores many of with-strings-attached realities of this kind of financing. On the flip side, selling the assets would have no strings attached to the cash. Further, it is

That's insanely hyperbolic.

Literally from the article: > “I’ve learned my lesson,” Griffith said. “I am still profoundly embarrassed that I am here, and of what I have done.”

It seems like such a low bar! "Don't break federal law by expressly teaching sanctioned nations how to bypass YOUR OWN COUNTRY'S rules" seems like table stakes on passable intelligence. I cannot believe how many people i

The U.S. did not decide who gets to use it. The U.S. punished a U.S. citizen for violating national law. That's very different from deciding who gets to use a technology.

The precedent here is that if you deliberately and clearly help a sanctioned company against the laws of your own nation, you will suffer the consequences. There's nothing here about the random other ways of passively sharing informati

He expressly stated he knew he was helping to evade financial sanctions and you think it's "sad" to punish him for violating the laws of our country? How does it help anyone? It sets the tone that people who break the rule of
