Assuming things are as you say, fist thing is to teach fear management. Do light fear training. Nothing extreme, ideally something tailored to his psyche. Without this nothing is gonna work.

Then, teach him crowd control. I'm not joking. There is science on how to deal with a crowd. You don't need to explain advantages of Android, but how to use them to stand up to those kids.

Both of these skills are universally useful, and will help him in life almost guaranteed.

Not all desired results are feasible or possible even.

Purely psycologicaly I think it's an attempt to take control of your future, you know? Reducing uncertainty is more valuable then many things... "The best way to predict the future is to make it" and all that.

Like, if I'm not sure whether I'll need it and how much of it I'll need, there is something wrong and I'm not gonna buy it at all.

Secondly, thiese are indeed two different levels. A database that serves as a single source of truth can be implemented as an entire cluster of serves with no single point of failure.. At least in theory ;)

find ... \! -empty ...

they have the same hash, but they do not need to be treated as duplicate

when you build things you can understand the trade-offs people have to make which gives you an intuition for weak spots

Pretty Please?

A "law" in Economics is supposed to work over infinite amount of time, over infinite amount of participants and so on. Technically they are not laws, but idealised long time trends.

Obviously they do not work exactly in real world, but that doesn't mean one should dismiss them entirely.

Now they put weaker chip but it can be utilized to its full capacity, so essentially at the cost of capital expenses, they significantly cut per laptop expenditure. Also internalizing more r&d helps with taxes.

I don't know whether potential instructions set optimization will yield that much, because Mac needs aren't really different; maybe they will focus on battery life more then other laptop manufacturers, which they historically did, who knows.

I don't see how there is any alternative to researching stuff first in order to know what you need, especially if we are talking about "efficiency" and "value" which are not rigorously quantifiable.

The way I see it, a "high output team" usually knows all the tools in their respecive field, and knows 99% of them are trash and this fundamental thing has to change before a better tool becomes possible. Which in turn makes conversations with salesmen mostly pointless.

On the other hand not a "high output team" don't know exactly what they need and just chase hype.

In-house email servers are not constrained by the time to build them, but rather by reputation/spam considerations. Sorry, but that's a lucky guess ;-)

> paying for a third party SSO solution for our products and instead using engineering time to build first class integrations between our products and complementary products, because having an artisanal SSO System doesn’t benefit our customers

That's one of vendorlockiest vendor lock out there, which is a very YOLO decision.

The idea that buying stuff is more efficient then building it yourself is at the cornerstone of the modern economic theory, but that's only a theory. In the wilds there's much, much more factors to consider then just comparing cost of building versus cost of buying.

IMO, it's not so much technical people don't like doing support, it's just bad for career. If you can solve that for your potential employee you're good. But that is gonna be tough because you can't influence other 99% of employers who treat support like trash, making it unattractive for people with technical skills who have the choice. On the other hand some people are fine with what they can take right now and do not bother too much with the whole "career" thing. If you can offer attractive paycheck for a sufficiently smart person, you will find your 2 in 1 support.

Just remember all that "fluff" is what pays the bills.

Services that work atop the Internet are what they choose to be. For one centralized services are easier to code and easier to monetize, so not very surprisingly more people choose to build centralized services.

It isn't a "batteries included" solution, but with a little creativity it allows you to do pretty much anything you want.

If you are prepared to even build your own app, I thing it might interest you.

Please, no need to devolve into insults. I really believe you don't understand what WHO is actually saying about masks. But I don't think you are a bad person or something. If what you said about setting remote workspace for your company is true, it is likely you have actually saved a life. See, it is not that hard to commend a person you are arguing with.

I think you misunderstand that WHO is not your personal physician, nor it should be. When they say "masks don't work on healthy people" they are not trying to say "a single mask doesn't work on a single person". That is what you seem to hear, but that isn't what they are trying to say. What they say is "If we as a society, spend all our masks on healthy people, it won't work to stop pandemic".

A mask spent on a healthy person is not useless, it's wasteful. If you don't want to contract desease you should stay at home, that is a solution. A mask despite being mildly useful is not a solution. You are still very likely to contract desease wearing a mask, if you do not follow other rules that you tend to ignore.

Kevlar vest can stop bullets, but it is not a complete solution, because bullets is not the thing that kills the most in a war, by far.

Just try to answer this: what makes you safer, wearing a vest, or donating it to a soldier who doesn't have one?

1. Intel. Nothing can protect you from an aviabomb except you knew it was coming and hid before bomber arrived.

2. Your squad.

3. Military training.

4. Good supply lines.

5. A TON of other gear.

6. A vest.

Now let's say you bought a vest in the warzone and military didn't have enough because of that and lost and now enemy approaches you. Is a vest going to protect you? No, absolutely not. Not in the slightest. The fact that a kevlar vest can stop a bullet means zilch if battle is lost. The enemy doesn't even need to come to you, now that they control infrastructure you will come to them and do whatever they say because otherwise you'll starve (if economy collapses you have greater chances of dying then from contracting covid-19).

> buying them puts soldiers at risk because they need their protection

Yes, exactly that. So yes, stop buying vests, because military can use them to protect themselves and you and you can't.

> Godot uses a shading language similar to GLSL ES 3.0. Most datatypes and functions are supported, and the few remaining ones will likely be added over time. Unlike the shader language in Godot 2.x, this implementation is much closer to the original.

https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.0/tutorials/shading/shadin...

Godot is relatively new and definitely "not there yet", but at least with its open nature you can do `git clone godot-doc.git` and no top manager can take it away from you.

A mask is better spent on a sick person.

Therefore a healthy person should concede a mask to a sick.

Or maybe this is gonna be more illustrative: Let's say you are a magicall 100% efficient authority. You have 1000 people on your hands and only 500 masks. What is the course of action that yields least amount of deaths? Yep, you lock away all the masks and give them away to sick people.

It is wartime logic - deaths are inevitable and if you shoot in the head people hoarding masks you will DECREASE total deaths.

Now that is helpful!

What exactly you see as lies?

When a healthy person inhales wearing a mask big part of the air comes from the side, because it's an easier route and because fluid dynamics. Then healthy person touches their eyes with unwashed hands and still gets infected.

Official recommendation for sick people as far as I am aware is to change the mask every couple of hours, because by then enough fluid accumulates on the mask to pose threat.

"it's useless to you" - it's a freaking pandemic - nothing is about you, the fight is to stop exponential growth of the infected.
