Nah, it's deeper than that. Assembly is still just a series of commands with desired effects. HDLs are a description of physical hardware(minus IP blocks which are vendor specific). You're describing things down to the actual gate level.

Stuff like sync vs async latches, global resets, exact cycle count are things that are critical in HDLs but don't have matter much in software these days.

For SystemC I'm not a huge fan, the types if things you want to describe tend to get bolted on and many constructs just aren't synthesizeable. There's a huge impedence match between the two.
Any "good" they do, is offset by the systematic oppression they put in place to sustain their dictatorship.
I was incredibly humble and polite when I walked into that shelter. My past activism with the Catholic Workers which were a couple blocks away flagged me as a dirty communist liberal, in their eyes. I volunteered there in several different ways. When I asked that the other shelter let me become a member, I was brought into a room with three larger males and pretty much trash talked and intimidated. The guy that ran the place said something like "You think you're better than us?". I was almost crying at this point. I was hungry and tired. My knees ached. They thought I was a drug addict. I had just walked a couple miles from the library. He told me that if I didn't believe that I would die on the streets with no help. I politely declined to be subject to that sort of treatment and I walked out of that door nearly sobbing knowing that I may have to be cold again that night. But I will risk pain any day over giving power to people like that. Being content is the problem. I was thinking bigger picture. It may have helped me to conform in that situation, but it would be doing the next person in my place a disservice. I'm happy I was strong that day but many other times I was weak.
Enlightened businesses know to hire key contributors to the open source libraries they depend on. :) I was glad to work for such a business for several years, and proud to offer them great value.
That, too, but I think that the point that there’s futile for us to want to know the “details” of the after-life is also a valid one in reguards of this parable.

Did you search through that document for "carbon dioxide"? Because it only appears in 10 places, and in none of those does it define any limits or reductions.
How about The Netherlands? How could The Netherlands improve over Sweden?
"governed" probably isn't the right word. HOT is a separate organization from OpenStreetMap. They do a lot of work editing OSM and there are people with overlapping involvement.

In addition to running their own tileserver, they also often produce large format maps in QGIS or what not.
Oh yeah totally, I think it's also a byproduct of how they synthesize. Extra abstractions in software have relatively low cost where they can be really expensive in HW.
The difference in life expectancy between men and women appears to be significant across every human culture. The effect appears to be biological and not cultural.
Define "easier" in this context. If you have an algorithm whose complexity increases exponentially with the key length, saying you made a 10% gain doesn't mean squat.

I have no idea what the actual story was, but I would imagine it can be both true and not true in the way you’re imagining.

Say you really need new simple scalable storage because X part of your stack has bottlenecks. You spin up a team to work on it, and that team immediately has ambitions of making it big and sharing their service with the entire world. Now... which narrative is true? Yes, it was spun up to help Amazon. Yes, it was built from scratch as a product. Those don’t sound exclusive to me.
I've heard of efforts to "jumpstart" a system through usage of a one time organic import. Geoff Lawton's project in Jordan of Greening the Desert fame comes to mind. Also there are expeyyriments in applying compost from the Marin Carbon project.

Any company or institution that relies on OSM tiles heavily are caching them anyways because the request cap isn't that high.
I don't find it at all surprising that we find a natural occurrence of prime number patterns in nature. It makes perfect sense to find them in crystals if you think about it for a while.

First remember that 'primeness' is not really a property of a number, it's the absence of the property of being composite. "Can only be divided..." meaning "Can't be divided..." meaning "Not composite."

Second crystals are formed by repeating patterns. What happens if you compose a pattern from many repeating patterns and overlay them? There would be 'features' where the patterns don't overlap.

Do papers try to make things seem difficult, exciting and mysterious on purpose?
Significant contributors know the software they work on more intimately. Most obviously having an expert on staff like that makes for faster debugging when something goes wrong. Less obviously (but more importantly), having someone who truly understands the software well helps ensure optimal architectural decisions about how the software gets integrated.

It's a long departed business model. No one under the age of forty has ever bought a newspaper.

Most people 40-65 stopped reading them a long time back. I'm surprised if many people over the age of 65 who are computer savvy still read them.

Does anyone seriously think once the people described above reach retirement age they're going start picking up the newspaper?

Print media had 20 years to adjust or die and pissed it away and commercial television should have also seen the writing on the wall by the early 2000s but they pissed it away too.

I swear Facebook claimed 10G at 30 km, and recently Bridgewave was claiming the same. Facebook was using a custom 33 dBm PA MMIC.

Quorvo (or maybe HRL) presented a 33 dBm GaN MMIC a couple years ago, but it was ~90 nm GaN process which isn’t out yet. Once that’s out, I’d expect >1W at 80 GHz to allow some cool stuff.

Trapped or Tangled – Creative Approaches to Debt by Public Services
I see this asserted frequently, but I'm not convinced it's true. Focusing on agriculture, say that in 2020 a vindictive President Warren passes the Farmer Retribution Bill, banning commercial agriculture in the US, effective 2024. Would people starve in the streets, or would food prices rise slightly as international markets massively increase production and export to the US? Considering how much California and Mexico produce I already see in New York my hunch is that food can be shipped cheaply and efficiently, but I'm not basing that on much, and wasn't able to find any relevant research.

If you had to keep the door to your house unlocked for 5-10 years would you still consider it relatively short? How about if you couldn't patch your OS for the same length of time?

Being stuck with such vulnerabilities for years is only short if nothing that tech touches is of much value to you.
Text Messages Through Chemical Signals
I'm going to be honest, there is a bit of give from both sides that need to happen. Cultural differences need a certain getting used to.

The lawyer definitely messed up by emailing it to the wrong person, but business rarely happen over weekends.

That the Swedish are proactive about accommodating it is good, but too much of it and you're diminishing yourself.

That's a fun story, but how is it a problem?
> You might be generalising a bit

Sweden consistently ranks as an easy place to do business in surveys among executives [1]. It's also much faster and simpler to start a new business in Sweden than it is in France. I'm picking two examples which speak to my broader experiences. That said, they're anecdotes responding to a pattern pointed out in the article.

I'm not saying doing business in non-Swedish Europe is not worthwhile. It's just a lot easier in Sweden. When timelines matter or complexity is high, the Swedish team–in my experience–has come through more frequently. (I put Switzerland into a similar "easy to deal with" category, though I'm biased in being Swiss American.)

> if American English is a dealbreaker

I grew up speaking French and British English, so no, it probably is not. But when co-ordinating communications between an American legal team and overseas ones, I've seen (and perhaps I only notice this because I speak and write in both dialects) one team say one thing and the other read it as something else (or get confused) where all one needs do to alleviate the problem is "translate". This happens less when co-ordinating with Sweden. It's a small factor and certainly attributes no fault to anyone, but it's a factor that adds up to transactional costs.

There are different notions of variability used in the paper, and he is showing one is equivalent to the other. It doesn't seem ridiculous to me to include the proof, even though it is simple. Lots of simple proofs are included in papers and books.

Michele I always upvote your posts, you are a solid contributor here, ignore the haters upthread.
I think your point is overstated, but nonetheless I found it deeply unsettling the nearly all Swedes watch (or attend) the sing-alongs in Skansen in Stockholm. Be-sweatered grandmas and punk kids with faces that are more piercing than skin, sitting together in chairs and on couches, smiling and singing happy songs.

> You can have markov models at various levels of granularity...

This is neither here nor there. The article already applies models to two separate levels of granularity (chord progressions, and melody notes over a given chord). But for higher order structures the hard part is decomposing source music into data points that typify its structure - if you did that then applying a markov (or other) model to the data would be straightforward.
Yeah the long term benefits especially when it comes to using features / software as intended / in a way that will be supported in the future have to be huge. If they can teach others.... benefits have to be big there too.
Unfortunately they no longer offer a free month of Prime for a late delivery - I believe too many people were taking advantage of that perk.

Interesting ideas. I don't know that "extremist" is the right word though. It seems that it's just further investigation into any particular topic (for instance I replied to a direct question asking for an opinion). "Extreme" is a very subjective term and when talking about sensitive topics, it would be easy to label any further research as such.
Again, I see no data that supports rapsey's claims, namely that

1. Protectionism resulted in greater economic growth for the US, Germany, Japan, and China.

The example of China is particularly egregious since it was China's economic liberalization reforms in the 1980s and 1990s, including opening up to foreign investment and lifting protectionist policies, that resulted in massive economic growth and massive poverty reduction.

2. There is a positive correlation between protectionism and development in African countries. This is ironic because protectionism is a major source of harm for African countries. From the introduction of [5]:

In recent years, as African governments and development advocates have stepped up their campaign to reform the trade policies of rich countries, the issue of agricultural protectionism has come to the forefront. This is a highly divisive issue, with rich countries resisting poor countries' demands for major changes... Critics highlight the hypocrisy of rich countries giving lip service to free trade while maintaining tariff barriers and paying subsidies to their farmers. Their argument that agricultural protectionism places an unfair burden on Africa is becoming a mainstream view.

There is a consensus among economists that protectionism has a negative effect on economic growth and economic welfare [1][2][3][4], so rapsey's extraordinary claim to the contrary requires extraordinary evidence. As Gregory Mankiw says [6], "Few propositions command as much consensus among professional economists as that open world trade increases economic growth and raises living standards."

Can we separate the discussion of whether this paper has a superfluous proof in it from whether its conclusion is true?

Additionally, the main point of the article is that that Mr. Hill feels his paper was pushed out of publication because of a political agenda. Let's also acknowledge the claim of political motivations corrupting academics is independent of the "superfluous proof" claim.
> the Swedish are proactive about accommodating

If I had to pick out one thing Swedish culture does well, commercially, that many European cultures do not, it's allowing for dissent to be discussed [1]. Saying "I disagree with you" isn't an affront nor an insult, but the voicing of an opinion. That is not always true e.g. in France, Spain, Korea or the Middle East. (It's untrue in many American corporate cultures, too.)

This isn't a rule. But the number of Swedish teams where I've seen a junior productively question a senior in front of me is far higher than elsewhere in Europe.

[1] Switzerland, Ireland, the Netherlands and Denmark are also good at this.
Actively working on it
All well and good about healthcare being available and not-as-bad-as-people-say provided 'good healthcare by the company.' But there lies the problem, the dependence on those variables, "good", and "company."

a) What if you're self-employed? You're stuck with mediocre, expensive healthcare for the individual market.

b) What if the company is cheap or negotiates poorly the healthcare options? Sometimes they're mediocre.

c) Costs have been going up, and companies are finding ways to reduce costs (since someone has to pay for those padded healthcare executive salaries and healthy stock prices thanks for solid profit). Thus the same plan(s) get worse year after year.

d) there's a push towards 'high deductible, self-managed / pre-tax account' type healthcare, which is smiled upon as a fantastic way to give people choice. The reality is different, now not only is the healthcare company still the middleman that keeps a chunk that gets paid out to providers, but now it's up to you to 'negotiate' what healthcare service is important to you. Oh gosh, is it expensive? I'll skip this particular service.

The U.S. has got it all wrong, of course. I'm jealous of Swedish or other healthcare systems when I read through threads like these.

Bottom line: the mediocre healthcare system in the U.S. and the emphasis on giving middlemen lots of money for no reason is a barrier to innovation and self-employment. Why strike out on your own and take a risk on building something if you'll lose your precious company healthcare? This problem is only getting worse and clearly has an impact on the political discourse.

In the case of Gas Buddy (and larger, Cuebiq), I've seen two family members have their entire data plan used up on their behalf by the location services being overused. I'm guessing a bug in a recent version of their library. It might be possible to argue at least a phone bill out of them as harm.
This doesn't even make sense as a hypothetical.

A bit unrelated to the original post, but when I've done mentoring calls, I found it useful to not jump around. It let the mentee see the REPL commands in context of the code we were working on, and simplified my setup, since most screen sharing setups work best when you pick a single monitor.

I think a better visualization of the problem is "you can't cross a canyon in less than a single bound". Sometimes there is no meeting half way.

Last but not least, compromising is sometimes not an option. It's like the paradox of tolerance where the only thing you have to be intolerant to is intolerance. Because allowing that is basically killing your options. It's like allowing bacteria to kill you because you are pro-life and not willing to kill them.

In the case of free speech, anything that would lead to someone else losing their freedom for the same should not be allowed just to have "a compromise". Hate speech is not free speech any more than contract killing is just a financial transaction. And just like contract killing, hate speech should be punished the same as the crime it instigated to. You instigate violence, you have to be put in the same jail cell as the people who threw the punch.
Hey Jesse, I can sympathize with your situation, and I've seen you get some really solid advice in other comments here so I'll just add my 2¢ about presenting yourself.

I have a couple of probing questions, and I mean no offense, just to provoke thought:

1) What good is atheism as a worldview if it prevents you from communicating, and even receiving help you desperately need?

2) Why would a recruiter or potential employer care about your past, living arrangements, or financial troubles?

You sound like a smart, driven guy, but I think you're letting your situation and your beliefs cripple your potential right now. You don't have to _change_ those things, they're real, but you might want to limit who you share them with, or in what context, especially until you can find the help you need.

Wishing you the best!
