It's not supported on Mac, and even on Linux seems to have weird limitations on specific kernel versions.

It also supports just a subset of AMD chips, which doesn't seem to include the actual AMD chips of the different Macs that I have available.

ROCm would count if it's mature enough so that the setup "just works" on any reasonable environment (in the way that it mostly is so for the major ML platforms on nvidia/CUDA) but it does not yet seem ready for that.
That obviously isn’t what I meant. And it has no bearing on the discussion. If your proposal is to tax me and not only give the other citizens of my country a UBI, but also give everybody else in the world a UBI, I’ll just leave you to make it happen.
I think the process also depends on your location. Seems like this is for US. In London, UK you can easily get noticed and start the process, but 100% of the time they give you a test to do before any interviews. The problem arises here, because even if you do the test perfectly there is 90% chance you will never hear from them again. You basically end up wasting your time doing some test just to never get any contact/feedback from them. On that last note I've never got a feedback from any interview process even when I've asked. Assuming you are the 10% they contact back, then you go for a face-to-face and the interview there is a tech interview and barely any HR part. Only the tech part of the interview matters and if you pass it you get job, if not - you never hear from them.
Anywhere well outside London they don't even do test/tech interview, you just do an HR one and high chance of getting it.

It's a little different when you control the entire structure within which these animals live. You create the animal just to torture and kill it, essentially.

Talking about wild animals is a straw man for a couple of reasons:

1. Factory farms have nothing to do with people going out into the woods and hunting animals. It's about turning animals into a commodity, and the further removed people are from the reality, the easier it is to ignore/rationalize/justify it.

2. Even brining out wild animals falls to the argument: "No matter what I do, animals will die, so therefore it's ok to kill animals." If you substitute 'humans' for 'animals' in that statement, you would call it ridiculous, but the logic is flawed in either case.
RegexKitLite, not regex. Way to get this wrong.

This is irrelevant to the conversation, but yes that is why we spend trillions on defense technology, so that if it comes to blows we don't lose out.

I only have praise for the HashiStack (Nomad, Consul, Vault). Folks often reach for Kubernetes as part of a larger initiative to containerize their apps, add ephemeral test environments, etc, but I really think Nomad is better suited to this.

Choosing k8s is just the first step - you have to deal with what 'distribution' of k8s to use, upgrades, pages of yaml, secrets stored in plaintext by default...

Once you've got Nomad running, it just works.

I help people move to Nomad, my email is in my profile if you want to chat :)

This team is doing "the lord's work". Anyone thinking you can use a "de-Googled" Android distribution, like GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, or LineageOS and actually be de-Googled in anything but the most superficial way (as I once thought possible) should actually grab the sources and examine them.

Android is written with deep and casual connections to Google's systems all throughout the codebase. It's like a cockroach infestation. There's no concept of anyone potentially not wanting to connect to their services regardless of how trivial the "value add". It will take dozens of patches to cut these out, often breaking functionality. To be fair, I haven't looked at /e/ sources to see if they've done all this, but I would be surprised if they got all of them. Then of course, the patches need to be maintained and new ones written as Google continues to relentlessly add more integration points with their servers in subsequent Android updates.

Just to name a few: SUPL, WebRTC probing, automatic previews of YouTube in the Messenger, Google maps lookups in Dialer and in Photos, myriad connectivity checks, etc. And this doesn't even consider the unending whack-a-mole that gets played for Chromium privacy by projects like Bromite and un-Googled Chromium.

After going down this rabbit hole, it became clear to me the only way to win is to not play. If the Pine64 ecosystem gets to the point of working as well as the Linux desktop (been daily driving some KDE on top of GNU/Linux for 10+ years, with only one major issue due to buggy drivers), it will be one of the very few ways to ensure your phone is not making unwanted data transfers to Apple and Google's servers.
The JVM isn't limited to Java, for example GraalJs is also an ecmascript compliant JS engine
Very few are critiquing just for the sake of it. Most do it in some feeble attempt to put themselves on the same level of the person they are critiquing. It's much easier to form an argument about why some high profile person is wrong about something to get some attention rather than actually doing something better.
Fantastic!

Thank you :)

> Before Church, functions weren’t considered mathematical objects that could be passed as arguments to another function, for instance.

This strikes me as profoundly ahistorical. Mathematicians have considered function spaces as families of objects to be operated upon by higher-order functions (themselves considered objects to be operated on, and so on) long before the 1930s. I'm sure some version of this thinking has been part of the "folklore" of mathematics for centuries, but at the very least you have to recognize that the idea of higher-order functions is subsumed by Cantorian set theory in the 19th century.

Edit: if you mean to say that a formalism for higher-order functions was novel in its presence in a computational calculus, your remark makes a little more sense. But a few remarks on that:

* Already in 1933, Herbrand–Gödel μ-recursion had given a model of computation that was equivalent to the lambda calculus. (This could be the "recursion" that the post you're responding to was referencing.) I guess the μ operator could be regarded as a higher-order function, but functions don't really play a first-class role in the μ-calculus.

* It's probably more accurate to say that the lambda calculus was conceived as a logical formalism, of which Church published only a computational fragment when it became apparent that the original calculus was afflicted with the Kleene-Rosser paradox. Higher-order functions (and predicates) had already played a role in formal logic systems for decades prior to this.

A job is for wage. You don't mention programming as a hobby. Flow happens when you're personally engaged and truly interested in the solution you're building. This happens more on personal side-projects than at work, where the modern work-environment makes sure to interrupt us as much as possible. If programming is just the objective of codifying some business logic for a company, you won't become personally engaged. Also, non-trivial and complex solutions may break flow, as you have to walk and think more. Flow is more for those passages of coding where you jot down simple, but lengthy solutions, then realize a simple refactoring will DRY up the code. Then after 5 such iterations with some YAGNI, you've skipped lunch that day! You became engrossed in the work itself. Music may help, but becomes a distraction for any deeper design-thoughts.

Nothing magical about flow, but feels very productive even though one might be working on the wrong solution all along! For gaming industry and huge codebases, programmers absolutely need to get into flow in order to manage to complete it all in time.
Sounds like a bad apology from someone who got caught passing of others work as their own. Yes plagiarism is wrong, and no it’s not the entirety of academia that is wrong because you can’t get by without talent through just copying other people’s work.
> When they get interested in something, however random, I encourage them to go preposterously, bus ticket collectorly, deep. I don't do this because of the bus ticket theory. I do it because I want them to feel the joy of learning, and they're never going to feel that about something I'm making them learn. It has to be something they're interested in. I'm just following the path of least resistance; depth is a byproduct. But if in trying to show them the joy of learning I also end up training them to go deep, so much the better.

I feel like this part captures the essence of it... to be _really_ good at something, you have to have deep interest which you can't force - so just forget about being good, it's not worth worrying about, instead discover what you can have fun with and get crazy about. This feels like such a natural thing to encourage in kids :)

Also the side effects of getting deeply interested in random things should not be underestimated, in my experience the connections between seemingly disconnected things are unexpectedly common.

It's very hard to say, and I would imagine it's hard to say even for the average Facebook employee too, given how large the company is. If it was a single coherent entity with its own knowledge map (which, last I checked, it still isn't, but I will check again in 2022), we could probably reason differently about it though.
> I don't see why web apps should be handicapped

The evidence overwhelmingly shows that given an exhortation to adhere to the principle of least authority, developers opt to pursue their apparent belief in their manifest destiny to control ever more resources on the user's machine and relying on that level of control even when it's not called for regarding the application at hand. It doesn't make sense to repeat the experiment by opening the floodgates in all the browsers and seeing if it'll turn out differently this time. It's also not as if there's a dearth of opportunities for developers to fulfil their desires elsewhere. The Web meanwhile is pretty much the only one doing what it is, and it's not like we can just roll things back when devs unsurprisingly do end up misbehaving in the way they are wont to.

> So why shouldn't I be allowed to use web apps that interact with bluetooth or USB devices? Why should your philosophical arguments on which software on what platform is allowed to do get in the way of my very real productivity and desire to use my computer the way I want to?

This doesn't accurately describe the circumstance we're in. There are no concrete barriers here hindering your productivity by total control over your own machine. Your user agent is just another native app, after all, which you have the freedom to select and run how you see fit. Use one that supports Bluetooth, Dat, or heck, one that gives you script access to directly write to your bootsector if you want. This is a power that has been exercised for years by everyone from end users to IT departments (cf continued use of Internet Explorer). The only real limit you have is in the scenario where you are a Web app author and you're hindered by other people's choice of browser, which is a very different situation from the "my computer" argument you're using. (If you want to cite iOS here, then it's Apple and the App Store model that you have the problem with; there are multiple levels of irony in this.)
I use text browsers because they are efficient and fast. Also Static content shouldn't ideally need js because it is a security concern.

AFAIK most of us don't complain when a dynamic website doesn't work. We just use a modern browser.
Sounds like the UI needs a spec as well then.
The main drawback of this ( and it's a minor drawback in the larger scheme of things ) is that this isn't a portable interface and isn't available on other POSIX-ish OS's. It looks like there are key agents available for Freebsd, OS X and Illumos though.

Thanks for pointing this out.

My suggestion is not to show them code at all, to me the code is just the language we learn to solve problems. Like learning to speak another language, it doesn't change your message, just how you deliver it.

So instead I would present them with a few unique problems that Computer Science helps solve. Whether it is a web site problem, an Arduino or Rasberry Pi based small robot or something large that will catch their attention.

I think showing them how solving problems not only involves critical thinking but also creativity, a no-barriers thought process (e.g. no preconceived ideas on solving an issue), and how you can really impact the world with it. At least in my opinion and experience, kids like to be inspired and don't think in the terms of boundaries so showing them how Computer Science really lets us do that could leave a great impression.

I'd also take a number of slides and have a picture on each one of different things that Computer Science helps solve, e.g. Manufacturing Automation, Welding, Cars, Space travel, websites, communications etc. Make sure at least 2-3 are things they would have never understood were backed by programming, I think that impacts people.

I don't know how french high-schoolers may differ from the US, but my bet is they share most qualities. My son was inspired very much in this way when he was in middle school, and he jumped at the chance to join a technical program for high school.

Good luck and have fun, that is an awesome opportunity to help shape kids view of the world.
Drawing a parallel between software optimization and hardware optimization is unsure footing at best. Trying to map real world and often vague requirements to their corresponding software implementation is outright difficult. The closest analogy I can come up with regarding hardware would be to implement a piece of hardware that can take a varying number of I/O each with a completely unique decoding and encoding scheme.
Is this it?

In modern America we have this outlandish idea that it is a fine thing to "be ourselves" to the limits of the law out in public.

More traditional etiquettes include the concept of what happens in public following different rules from what happens in private. "I do not care as long as he does not scare the horses in the street" is the old saying. Just do not cause other people hassles, please. (This has a dark aspect, too, overlooking domestic violence hidden behind closed doors, but that is not important to the question on hand.)

If we move to a world where your public behavior might be displayed to your family and co-workers, I think that will be a good thing overall. If you want to misbehave, please keep it in private locales.

The problem is that a large fraction of our land value is in cities and most of them have zoning restrictions that don't match classic notions of owning land. It's easy for otherwise identical pieces of land in the same neighborhood to differ in price by a factor of ten depending on whether it comes with the right to build a house on it. Well, I suppose that means that the land tax just has to incorporate different gradients of "owning" land but that's probably still simpler than trying to determine the value of improvements.
Slowdown? It seems to me that innovation has _exploded_ recently (say the last 4-8 years) - soft AI is suddenly everywhere, new wearables are everywhere and can do things that seem like magic to me, philips put a wifi reciever in a lightbulb and I can talk to my phone (I am afraid of cursing at my computer, one of these days it is going to talk back).

The problem with Lisp-like DSL construction, is that the interface doesn't play well with many populations of domain experts. Even Smalltalk, with its syntax designed to be usable by children can fulfill the technical side of constructing DSLs easily, but still leaves something to be desired when it comes to domain expert use. (Various Smalltalks had their rough equivalent to #lang.)

(I know there is at least one Ruby based DSL which made some inroads to mobile device software testing.)

Basically, DSLs tend to only get used by experts who are already programmers or otherwise technically disposed. Maybe we're getting to the point where rudimentary coding is just going to be a new kind of literacy?

Unfortunately Flurry's new SDK does not collect iOS version info, so we're as much in the dark as you are.

However, 90.9% of our users are listed as having iOS4 devices - I am not sure whether this indicates the iPhone 4, or whether iOS 4 prevents flurry from detecting the device type (in which case this would be an accurate estimate of the number of devices running iOS 4)

I guess that the percentage of users with iOS 3 devices should therefore be at most 9.1% - probably less than that.

Another statistic is that 7.43% of the users had jailbroken devices - I suppose that a significant portion of them would be using iOS 3, as it is so painful to upgrade to iOS 4.
