Very uncomfortable to read. The proposed idea of not reading the code you ostensibly wrote, doesn’t just challenge the traditional workflow or methodology, it challenges the identity of a programmer itself. For experienced, respected programmers like antirez perhaps reading and writing code truly has just gotten in the way of the ideas, but I cannot identify with that perspective. The devil is in the details, reading other peoples code (and code the LLM writes) evolves the idea itself, and changes my understanding of it. My view on this is so biased by the direct relation of code I read and write to feeding myself and my family (the vast majority of my programming is for a paycheck) that suggestions of removing myself from the process feel grim, not exciting.

AT&T runs transparent proxies on their network that have been known to intercept and mangle tls, and directly manipulate tcp packets on the wire.

Take a tcpdump capture on both server/client side and compare the handshake/tcp headers/negotiated window size. Often you see the server sending one thing, but the client sees another

I had a similar experience on a grand jury in new york (where you decide whether or not a felony case should go to trial at all) and was shocked to see a prosecutor come back 4 times on the same case, each time with a slightly less serious charge (ie, starting with level 1 felony assault and ending with some lesser assualt charge). So even after we the grand jury decided there was not enough evidence for the felony assault case to go to trial, they attempt it over and over again, with the same evidence, though requesting a slightly lesser charge, desperate for a different result.

Still dreaming of a way to block cookies per-domain

Edit: someone just told me you can do it with osx adguard, in the user rules you can set "||domain.com^$cookie" to block all cookies from domain.com

Many ISPs do exactly this for high traffic content that is not served via TLS (which prevents it as you suspected)

You can get within a few percentage points, yes

I just tested this with two hosts with 4.14.127 upstream kernel and upstream mlx5 driver, and mellanox connectx-5 card. Using 16 iperf threads

[SUM] 0.0-10.0 sec 85.1 Gbits/sec

That's pretty close with no tuning, and well beyond 10gb/s we mentioned earlier

We are not struggling to do line rate 10G in the kernel. Modern 100Gbe nics (mellanox, solarflare) will happily do line rate with stock upstream kernel for a while now (definitely since 4.x) you only need to tune your irq balancing, and you can probably get away with not even doing that. If you are buying 100gbe nics you are also buying server class (xeon, rome) processors that can keep up.

Source: I operate a CDN with thousands of 100Gbe nics with a stock upstream LTS kernel, and minimal kernel tuning.

Subjective and frankly insane to say. Over 8 million people live in NYC (over 2x the population of the next most populous city in the USA, Los Angeles). NYC is commonly known in western culture as a world capital of culture, finance, and world politics (recall the UN). The population of NYC has grown by over 223,615 since the previous census. I agree with you that other cities around the world (a very large area!) may appeal to your personal sensibilities, but saying you 'feel bad for New Yorkers' is trolling. I Feel Bad for any backwoods country-dweller that thinks they have it better than the hundreds of thousands of people that made the choice to move to one of the (objectively) greatest cities in the world to improve their life. See how that feels? You just attempted to apply that to millions of people. Every densely populated has is faults (Barcelona particularly! Many, as in a substantial voting bloc, residents would prefer you to have never come as a tourist at all.) Pigeonholing the residents of the largest city in the USA to be worthy of your sympathy based on their choice to live there is not constructive, nor rational.

I have never seen a signing bonus. Options, yearly bonus, even rev-share, sure.

Anecdata, but I have worked for two of the big faangm companies and myself and every coworker I am aware of had a signing bonus.

I find it odd there's so much emotion about KDE vs Gnome in RHEl/CentOS. RHEL is an 'enterprise' distro, which means in theory professionals are using it inside of their application of choice, and almost never interacting in a meaningful way with the DE. They need almost no customization and only the simplest file manipulation tools, and the ability to open the programs they do their work in. If you want to use it at home, you can just install KDE yourself, why expect rhel to support it?

Take it at your local community college. I’m about to finish a summer session of algebra 2 and I have learned much quicker and more thoroughly than when I attempted with online resources, or books. I highly recommend it!

Quite simply, homeowners do not want homeless people in front of their abodes, and will vote to make sure it remains that way. What would you do if put in the position of said homeowner? It becomes a more difficult decision when its literally on your doorstep

All true, windows is kept around for Zbrush and Adobe suite. I'd put it at around 5% of artist workstation count.

(I've worked at a few of the larger VFX studios mentioned throughout the thread)

I don't agree, the entire visual effects industry, including their color departments, run on linux. Baselight and Resolve, are the two most common color correction programs in the industry, baselight exclusively runs on linux, and the big color companies (company 3, efilm, technicolor) all run resolve on linux. Coloring is done either on projectors, or broadcast monitors (something like a sony PVMA250 on the low end @ ~$6,000)
