The logic is very reductive. It's like: "the Fed's job is to cut a snake, so if they see a snake around their head they'll just close their eyes and cut both".

Raising rates does Absolutely Nothing to undo the tariffs or bringing the price down. Fed is not a blind machine.

It would help if people answer than downvote. Both these kind of questions and economic answers are getting buried.

My understanding so far based on buried comments is: other countries have tariffs on individual products they're historically good at manufacturing and they want to retain it. e.g. Milk in the Nordics, Cars in Japan and EU, Bikes in India, etc.

keyword: "selective to retain"

US is applying it across the board blindly, not to retain something that's existing, but what appears to be a blind hope of starting everything from scratch.

Buried comments say "strategy" is lacking, because these tariffs also apply on the very raw materials needed to start from scratch. The policy does not intelligently select and separate items by their current or future use to the US industry.

There is a prediction that this blunt hammer will not yield to a more productive situation, in couple of years it would only have to be quietly rolled back and strategic thinking would have to be re-applied.

The counter-counter argument is, maybe a real strategy is being worked upon, and this blunt hammer is just a leverage tool. But so far there are no concrete signals of strategic thinking, so it's currently perceived as "let's keep turning one knob after another". The lack of accompanying software updates, calculations, projections, personnel planning, etc all contribute to the notion that there is no strategy.

And at this point, it devolves into emotion and personality, which is better to stay away from.

The context of what the application does matters. I'm extremely cautious when people hype up "download sizes", when such size is less than 1MB, because this is usually a sign of cosmetic obsession and/or disassociation from the real world value offered.

A 200-300kb "bloated" single page app which does the job of a 10MB "minimalistic" downloaded store app – is IMHO pretty incredible. It's doing the same work at nearly 1/50th the size, all else being similar (externally loaded images and stuff). Heck, even a 1MB page load size is still 1/10th smaller.

Sure, it can be argued that the browser does most of the heavylifting. The same can be said of Android or iOS too, definitely the OS offers _even more_ heavylifting than the browser.

Are you suggesting he knowlingly convert into a hacker and get prosecuted as a traitor?

He exited and correctly disclosed himself as a victim of being unknowingly added. This is exactly what anyone who values the rest of their life should do.

This, and they actually invested heavily into building Nord Stream 2 from 2011 onwards. Nord Stream 2 never delivered any gas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nord_Stream_2

> This title is misleading though - where it tries to state that DeepSeek only focuses on research and not revenue.

That's not what the title says though. It says "research over revenue" not only research no revenue.

I found the title misleading for a different reason: the "unlike silicon valley" part. IMHO SV couldn't care less about revenue than innovation, experimentation and ultimately valuation. Stock prices have been long detached from revenue multiples.

Sometimes I truly wonder how the US is so far ahead in innovation and efficiency. This is unthinkable, how many hours of driving to and fro + this queue each day.

Here I am, in Germany, my kid goes to school by himself since second grade. Most of his classmates started to walk, bike, or take the train, bus or tram themselves at 3rd or 4th grade. Beyond 6th grade, it's considered a spoiled baby.

Indeed, you are right. The title is clickbait. I'll edit.

EDIT:::: The title submitted (End of support) is a bit misleading. It's set to April 2027. I've left my original message here for brevity. Not all of it is valid, but some is.

Super bizarre. We're a large Opsgenie customer. The Opsgenie website or mobile apps never showed any notice, not even as of now. The "Announcements" section in the mobile and web apps as I'm writing reads a feature announcement: "Coming soon: Simplified integration setup experience!"

Our customer relationship nor billing teams never received any communication.

Atlassian — we don't mind you sunsetting any product, that's fine. But honestly, your paying customers shouldn't get to know this from a blog post in social media, especially for an On-call emergency product.

I wouldn't trust any product from Atlassian after this fiasco.

Reminds me of https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_toxicity aka rabbit starvation / protein toxicity

~Thrice. Airpods.~

Edit: Airpods also has a majority market share, so probably it's not the third in this list.

Ah, this looks to be my favorite "non-management" bullshit game: Put stickies of words like "People" "Process" "Love" "Care" "Profitability" "Quality" and so on, pick some of those words and build a stupid story around those words. The story is usually summarized as "we'll have the best of the best people, doing best of the quality, with best of the best profitability, spreading much love".

What about all the words that are not picked? That's for 2 years later, when they play the same game again.

Here's the last but least favorite part: beat employees into memorizing those words, have them graded against these words based on entirely subjective interpretations, and reward those who are good at playing this game.

Some people are just story tellers, not doers.

Then I look at the profile of the author of this blog. Yeah, makes sense.

Unfortunately, there is a degree of entitlement in this reply as well. You've assumed they don't know what they're talking about, in fact you assumed they don't even know how to Google.

It's not "this industry" and it has nothing to do with tech. It's how most business endeavors practically work. Someone wants to start, say, a woodworking service or shop? It's perfectly normal and expected to offer discounts for some time to grow. Whoever has time subsidizes their time. Whoever has money subsidizes their money. I honestly don't understand the "surprise" behind what's basic common sense in everyday life.

There is no point in differentiating this like "ah it's on a bigger scale" or something. It's still just pretty basic.

This is a lovely list, thank you. But what's really missing is multi master and high availability. I'm glad to see that partitioning via sharding is covered.

IMHO the true limitations of RDBMS are not about usage, but scaling: Multi master across simple zones, High availability, Partitioning.

(IMHO it comes from ACID compliance, so I don't know if it's even solveable natively)

In my experience, React was an interesting take, but it had certain flawed red-flags that were ignored from the start. I wrote posts about it, but was doomed as a skeptic. The original fundamental premise: let's do one-way binding with virtual DOM, re-render, diff – did not make fundamental sense. Double the memory in browser, complete re-render & diff for every interaction? The answer was: Make it reliable, then make it fast. Now, it's full of hacked-up constructs attempting to make it fast – but it's neither fast nor reliable. At least with honest two-way binding frameworks, fast is guaranteed, and reliability comes from my experience. With React it's just a mess. I pity all the frontend engineers who's first intro has been with React, because unlearning is much more difficult than learning.

Being mindful of the never-ending-nirvana frontend spirit of churn, and after doing web development in VBScript, JS, JQuery, Mootools, Applets, Actionscript, YUI/Ext/Sencha, Backbone, Knockout, Angular1, Angular2, React, Vue1 – I'd say try Flutter. It's genuinely a breath of fresh air.

Except... Dart. If only Flutter was in Typescript it might have been a bit closer to nirvana. The Dart part is still keeping the frontend spirit of churn alive.

The interesting part here is... the Waymo has no reason to. There is no driver. All cameras and sensors are outside. It's just for not freaking out the passenger :)

It's legitimate to track entry and exit on national borders though. A tax exception based on entry/exit times is doable and better than constant geo tracking.

I wouldn't trust the management of this team for anything. They appear totally incompetent in both management and basic half-brain analytical skills. Who in the heck creates a cluster per service per cloud provider, duplicate all the supporting services around it, burn money and sanity in a pit, and blame the tool.

Literally every single decision they listed was to use any of the given tools in the absolute worst, incompetent way possible. I wouldn't trust them with a Lego toy set with this record.

The people who quit didn't quit merely out of burnout. They quit the stupidity of the managers running this s##tshow.

I'd assume it's the length (in time) of the vibration since the last stop. There may be edge cases where if the train is moving slowly, but overall it's a smart technique.

Automatically drive to a hub specialized for this or a police station?

A lease is usually a better choice than a lock.

A lease has a time limit. A lock does not. Clearing stale locks manually is a PITA. I still assume, being a Web-scale contract, the lock would be automatically cleared if the browser is restarted or something. But honestly a lease makes users do better design from the get-go.

Yes, and after that, buying back the same stocks at a higher price because there is nothing else to do with fiat currency.

This issue is vastly aided and exacerberated by the fact that immediately after unskilled laborers land, the first procedure is their passports are seized, and it's made clear they have to please their employer and work themselves to death to get it back. It changes the entire dynamic straight away: instead of the employer being obliged to keep you, you are now obliged to get back your passport.

Yes, there are other factors such as bonded labor, indemnities and local laws taking precedence. But this is such an obvious abuse factor, it makes sense to remove it. Of all the ways to do it, whether it's paid lockers and so on – what the parent comment said is still a cheap way.

There are already hundreds of OSI licenses for source code.

Just create a couple more for AI, one with training data, one without.

Holy grail thinking, finding "the one and only open" license instead of "an open" license, is in a sense anti-open.

Firstly, that's a high ask even for operating system software today. Something built for Mac 9 today is not expected to run on Mac OS 15. Demanding that from a cpu is quite the extreme.

Secondly, that's like asking cpu to do the job of a compiler. The compiler has one advantage over a cpu: it runs in a completely situation where memory and time do not matter. The cpu doesn't have the luxury of trading off memory or time.

But they now charge $5000 per year subscription fee, and they can demand the car be bought in for some onboarding. People are ready to pay for it and do whatever it takes to make their Tesla dance, so cost is not an excuse really.

They make it clear in their post:

> Firefox has continued supporting HTTP/2 push as this wasn't too large of an effort until recently. > However in the past few months we've encountered some webcompat bugs only affecting Firefox through HTTP/2 push

They are clearly saying that recently there has been bug report, and this blog post is to do exactly what you mentioned as other browsers do: reject H2 push and gracefully ignore it. There does not appear to be any hiding here.

Lots of negativity in this thread. Can we take just a bit of time to appreciate this. Thank you Elastic folks!
