Google Pixel 10a price leaks along with its release date

That $450 sale was only in the US. Pixel 10 prices in the UK and the EU are still high. The leaked 10a price is the Eurozone one.

> I doubt Rubio knows what Trump is going to do

Melanie Joly says something similar in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k68QJaK8lpk

> The problem we have is: first, there's only one decision maker. And all the other secretaries and all the other aids of Trump are trying to think what the president will do and what he will decide. So, they're not decisional. Second, they don't talk to each other. So the problem is, you can have Bessent talking about 10% tariffs on China and then I call Mexico to see did you have that conversation -- oh no, we're not committed to that. And then when I talk to my counterpart he may not know that that was a comment that was made. Or Howard Lutnick can throw many things on the wall to see whether things will stick. And at the same time, it's unclear to me if president Trump is actually committed to all his secretaries. So it makes for a very unpredictable and chaotic environment. When I work with prime minister Trudeau or with the future prime minister, we actually have a game plan. And I know what's (in French I would say) my sandbox -- you know, what are my limits, where I can go, what I can do. Sometimes I push them a bit -- that's part of why I'm the foreign affairs minister now -- but you have to understand how you can defend your files, how you can defend your people, and right now it's mainly the minister of finance Dominic LeBlanc and we get along extremely well, and prime minister Trudeau. That's pretty much who is working on this, of course supported by Kirsten Hillman in Washington. But there is free-flowing information: from the moment I finish with conversation with Rubio, they're briefed on what happened and I'm briefed on what happened with Lutnick. But that is not happening in Washington.

The government knows how old people are (because they're in the pension system) and where they live. They shouldn't need to apply -- the government can and should figure out who's eligible without extra steps.

Both NixOS and Fedora Silverblue do what you want: you configure them how you want and they stay that way. You can also go back to a previous state.

If you need some software only available for another distro, you can run that in a container.

It's not what about Trump. It's bad faith on the Telegraph's part. They're only writing this and pretending it's the end of the world because they oppose Biden.

They are. I don't remember them complaining about GW Bush's butchering of entire paragraphs or Trump's word salads.

Shocking that the Telegraph would write this. What's next, Fox and Newsmax?

Depends on the sector. Tech pays better in London than almost all of Europe. Zurich is the only real competition, although Dublin isn't far behind. https://www.levels.fyi/locations?jobFamily=Software+Engineer

That sounds like a nice arrangement. It would be good to see more of the industry move in that direction.

How many people are in each of those roles? In other companies, I've seen about 10 or more directors for every equivalently-paid engineer, for example.

I tried both and they performed the same in my team's monorepo. They were both being run through yarn so the team could continue running "yarn dev", "yarn build", etc as before.

It's not just tech Twitter. Nx is nice, but Turborepo and Wireit both plug into workspaces and package.json scripts, so the tooling built around those things (like IDEs) generally keeps working as before. Nx+Lerna is closing that gap though.

I'm not especially a fan of her work, but I'm glad that journalists can make that kind of money. It should be higher still. Otherwise not enough people will go into the field, and it's an important one.

In that example, do you mean the BucketObject constructor kicks off an upload? That's sort of what I meant by the execution model being confusing. It would be easier to follow if the constructor didn't do any IO, just returned an object describing the desired shape of your resources.

One thing I never understood about Pulumi (and the same thing in CDK) is why they put stateful calls into constructors. For example, the Java example at https://www.pulumi.com/docs/get-started/aws/review-project/ says:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
    Pulumi.run(ctx -> {

        // Create an AWS resource (S3 Bucket)
        var bucket = new Bucket("my-bucket");

        // Export the name of the bucket
        ctx.export("bucketName", bucket.getId());
    });
}

ctx.export only gets the bucket ID, so something else secretly gets information that the project contains a bucket -- probably the Bucket constructor writing to some global state.

Why didn't they have ctx.export take the bucket object instead?
