I wanna see this guys awesome contribution to software in code. We all know and have seen Carmacks code in public. What has this guy written in public. If his master piece is closed source, better not to put him on a pedestal.
I dont really partake in programming "wars", but the idea of launching a set of separate processes instead of separate threads to do a bunch of IOs has always seem to be weird to me. Yes, I have built software using Python. Yes, I have done things as you suggest. Now I use asyncio, since the syntax has matured and I finally understand coroutines, runners, tasks etc. Lets see where the GIL less Python takes us.
Would love to but I don’t think academia will want masters at least and years of industry experience will be discarded completely. I have 6 years experience in data intensive IoT applications and yet that would not be considered useful by academia
Not read the article, but I have few questions for kind folks who read it.
1. Was the study a human study or mice study?
2. If the study was human, how long should one fast for?
3. If the study was done on mice, what would be the equivalent hours of fasting in humans to observe same benefits? For example, rats fasted for 3 days experience autophagy, but rats would die if fasted for 5 days, so that 3 day cannot be applied to humans without an equivalent inflation of the time frame.
3. Was fasting the trigger or the resultant calorie restriction?
I have had a crappy life, abused sexually and physically when a child, but trust me whenever I re-hear about that guy losing his hard drive with BTC in it, I am like, yikes.
Name me one company that doesn't profile a programmer using the points and velocities (etc, etc).The up-speak and dishonesty can be seen readily when they say "All these metrics and data on your board will not be shared or used to decide your compensation or salary-revision.". The thing is that Agile, Scrum, Safe etc makes management happy that they have data which can infer devs productivity and return to the corporate. Thats all.
NYT last Feb had published article encouraging readers to go to China amidst the pandemic, the logic being that China is safe and our xenophobic bias might be responsible for us considering China unsafe.
The IoT systems that you guys are building seems awesome to me. I have been working in related field wherein my primary responsibilities included shipping data from edge to cloud among many other things. I have worked in vehicular IoT(connected electric vehicles), building IoT and am currently also involved in MQTT ecosystem(broker, client, test-suites) development in RustLang. There are HVAC systems communicating upstream across multiple US locations wherein my code runs and thousands of EV-vehicles with real time sensor data pushed to cloud where real-time tracking, alerts and intelligence is built. Let me know if you would be interested. I have also contributed to BACnet Python project with new features. Note: I am not a US citizen or have authorisation to work in US.
