They are - I'd say that 90-95% of Croatia's IT companies are focused on serving those needs. I don't think that the situation is much different in most other smaller EU members.

The problem is that high taxes and low tax brackets in Europe - particularly on salaries - are having a strong counter effect. I'm considering moving and I don't even make that much (by US standards, anyway).
> Printing more money does not change the real wealth in the economy. You can’t create additional purchasing power with an increase in the money supply because prices will adjust to the new level.

I think the point is more thatn printing money and transferring it to treasury coffers effectively is a tax on anyone holding USD. More government spending -> bigger deficits -> more money printed -> higher inflation (taxes). That's my understanding anyway.

The is highly unfortunate and a bone-headed move by Microsoft. But it does highlight two points that often get missed now that we rely on the web.

1 - If you don't host your own content then you have no control over it. Microsoft deleted all their blogs. YouTube and Facebook will one day cease to exist. This comment and all of yours will disappear once news.ycombinator.com is defunct. If you want something to last, host it yourself or be prepared to recreate it somewhere else every few years.

2 - Once you publish something at a URL you control (see point 1), you have a responsibility to keep it available at the same URL. Nobody is going to hold you to it but you will break 3rd party sites that link to you. Microsoft really dropped the ball here.

The more Google uses this type of presumptive search behavior rather than what I'm actually searching for, the more I find myself using Duckduckgo and Bing for finding specific things with specific search queries.

If I am searching for "xyz abc" I am searching for those specific terms for a reason, so please don't present me with results for the entirely unrelated "123", and no I am not talking about showing synonyms.

Talking about "banning" is a strawman, and pointing to impartial rules is an easy way to write off that they end up applied preferentially.

What I'm referring to is that the blue team has taken over the discourse of many popular forums [0]. HN has gotten better, but a few years ago it was quite hard to raise legitimate non-blue-flavored criticism without being downvoted into oblivion. Predictably, the only red-flavored comments being left were then lower effort, which would then get flagged to death.

So then people with moderate red-flavored views are left to go find different discussion forums if they want to express those views. And the places they end up have been similarly "claimed" by the red team, and are thus analogously tolerant of red team extremism.

Now rather than experiencing events like Christchurch primarily as a shared tragedy in which humans were killed (eg holy fuck what are we all doing to each other), the tragedies are mediated by political groupthink. To avoid having to distance themselves from their extremists, the home team caricaturizes the reaction of the other team. This creates cognitive dissonance which normalizes the extremist behavior rather than condemning it.

[0] At least from our perspective here. I'm certainly willing to posit someone could have a mirrored view where their popular forums are ever-more red-team flavored. This fits into my point.
Coarse Pixel Shading is a cool smarter-not-harder approach for filling high-dpi displays on lower-horsepower iGPUs. The section on it shows comparisons, and it does look useful, though it requires integration by applications.

Adaptive Sync, woo! That's going to make it so much nicer on anything that misses the 60Hz budget, which is going to be more likely on these weaker iGPUs.

For compressed texture formats, they call out BC and ETC/EAC, but I'm worried that they didn't include ASTC, which is The New Hotness. Compressed texture format fragmentation is a tough issue to deal with and to solve, but the sooner we can centralized on a common good format, the better.

Dedicated subslice Shared Local Memory is going to see use, for sure. (previously part of L3) 64KB with 1-byte alignment sounds great.

Transparent dynamic lossless compression is adding srgb support, which I'm really surprised wasn't already happening.
Yep, saltstack is a dumpster fire. Each jinja template can call arbitrary Python functions, and usually brings in external data from somewhere, so if something fails you have a jinja template that imported arbitrary data into a YAML format which defined multiple action items that are executed in some hard-to-understand order and good luck figuring out what went wrong where. Jinja/salt usually wouldn't even tell you what line of the original script caused the error.

My company's scripts have lots of "if fail, try two more times, and hope it succeeds" logic as a result. -_-

I didn't manage to use it enough to get to these issues.

I stopped at the point that I had to keep track of an enourmous build.nix file in all my project directories that did a lot of magic if I wanted to use Nix for Go or JS package management.

I also failed completely to search and install executable packages from npm and other minor things I tried.

I did that after going through the complete Nix tutorial and managing to understand pretty much everything and love it.
Sharing technology would reduce death rates. But if technology was not shared, competitors would need to reduce death rates even further in order to compete, which might be better for society overall.
> The idea that a certain programming language could be proven to be more productive than another is laughable.

The idea that one chemical could be proven to be more effective than another is an equivalent problem. History, application, duration, there's a permutation of issues under that umbrella, as well. The problem is that nobody wants to argue about it very much. The Quorum project tried, to a small degree.

> Why don't you just be honest and say you don't care Python is slow because you like using it?

It's that and that you have an existing toolchain/codebase you don't want to rewrite in a potentially SLOWER way, because you don't know another language well enough. Python devs rather "solve real problems" than worry about a class of problems that their tool is inadequate for. There are always new trivial problems, where performance doesn't matter.
I don't think it will work because most Americans don't have fast enough internet connections to work with no lag or latency.
> Sounds a lot like some service was logging the full body of a signup/login request, which then was readable for anyone with access to the logging/tracing infrastructure.

Wouldn't that also include failed login attempts complete with the failed passwords?

I mention this due to FB's history of even logging the entered passwords of failed attempts, which Zuck supposedly used to hack into people's Email accounts [0].

Because if that also applies here, then a whole lot of people just had way more leaked than just their FB password.

To put what I said another way, it emphasizes the wrong things. Nobody cares how many collections of 6 digits something has. 3 digits are what people care about. (Except where they care about 4, or actually vary the number of digit groupings they care about depending on where they appear, but then, this debate has no meaning to them anyhow.)

It's consistent, but it's consistent with something that doesn't match people's usage.

Both systems are roughly equally broken, so either side mocking the other for their number system is a display of parochialism above and beyond the usual levels one would see.
"It’s immediately obvious that increasing the money supply and spending the money will result in inflation."

The money supply has almost quadrupled in the last 10 years, yet inflation has been low.

MMT says that spending new money only causes inflation when the money is spent on stuff the private sector is also bidding for. Since that's pretty much everything that the government would want to spend money on, MMT & conventional economics are not in much disagreement here.

"MMT says that the only constraint on spending is inflation, but also turns around and says that you can always print more money. That’s a contradiction."

You can always spend more money, but only if you tax enough back to tame inflation. It's a constraint, not a contradiction.

"Printing more money does not change the real wealth in the economy."

Exactly. MMT doesn't create goods & services out of thin air, but what it does do is unlock idle capacity in the system. If Joe Sixpack is unemployed, he's a resource that the private sector is not utilizing, but he's a drain on society because somebody is paying for his food & shelter. MMT and the jobs guarantee would utilize that resource for good, and it won't affect inflation or the private sector as long as the jobs guarantee wage is at the minimum wage mark.

Caveat: beginner level understanding of MMT
Yep, and Hug was one of the first tools I saw with this style of declaring parameters with types in the functions, along with APIStar.

Great job! And thanks. It helped inspiring the creation of FastAPI. Apart from other of your tools that I use all the time, like isort.

An advantage I see of Hug: the same Hug application can be a CLI app.

A couple advantages I would see of FastAPI (disclaimer, I'm the creator :) ):

* The API schema uses the standards OpenAPI and JSON Schema
* It includes a couple of interactive API documentation web user interfaces (Swagger UI, and ReDoc). Thanks to being OpenAPI.
* It uses standard Python type hints, not custom types included as part of the library.
* The dependency injection system.
* Websockets.
Job guarantee is a stupid idea. Some people create more value by not working than by working.

Imagine you're trying to make a meal and some incompetent dummies want to do some work in the kitchen. It might turn out that someone competent does better work when dummies are not interfering with his work and instead are watching TV. It's called "Too many chefs in the kitchen". Full employment and job creation are not necessarily good for the economy.
Axanar was pretty impressive, but I love what the Star Trek continues crew did. The love and respect they showed to the original material was very impressive.
It’s pretty crazy. If the franchise were somehow freed from copyright control I have no doubt that several near-studio-quality fan productions would pop up in no time at all. People love their Trek.
Why in particular? Plenty of other registrars offer .uk or the public suffixes under it like .co.uk and .org.uk

The Nominet requirements do cause these to break mysteriously much more often than some generic TLD spun up yesterday by people convinced this is a gold rush (e.g. my registrar offered me a great renewal deal for a .co.uk I control, I pressed "Yes please" and then their system believed I had taken the deal but didn't renew the domain, after a few days they confirmed that the deal makes no sense for .co.uk and refunded the money, they had forgotten to blacklist Nominet when adding their deal feature), but it works well enough most of the time.
Definitely make sure you switch YouTube's AUTO setting from whatever default it has to 1080P. For a lot of scenes there is a HUGE difference.
> Printing more money does not change the real wealth in the economy.

No, but you can create wealth with that newly printed money. Of course, as soon as you print it you are diluting the value of all other money which one might argue is unfair, but on the other hand is the rather arbitrary model of redistribution we happen to have landed upon right now completely fair?

And setting aside fairness, is the current economic model we've come to right now even roughly optimal?

> You can’t create additional purchasing power with an increase in the money supply because prices will adjust to the new level.

This isn't "wrong", but I wonder if it's too simplistic to accurately describe the current globalized & automated economy.
Other causes of death have grown. I just saw this headline, "Fentanyl deaths skyrocketed more than 1,000% over six years in the US" https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/21/health/fentanyl-deaths-increa...

Normies ruined search engines.

No, really. Especially if Google is using search queries and clicks to update ML models - non technical people "pollute" the algorithms with poorly formed queries and overwhelming numbers of clicks on non technical articles.

There's probably enough of a niche now for a genuine technical search engine. Which treats keywords like Google used to, maybe with some regex thrown in and what not. None of this full question nonsense.

I personally believe that allowing people to search with full queries has had a negative effect on society - very little critical thought goes into which parts of your question are actually important, and searching is no longer a learnable skill; just ask a literal question and let Google do all the thinking for you.
This is not news, in that this form of exploitation is common in aviation as well as other industries. The benefactor of cost cutting has successfully shifted the risk onto other parties.

If there were a mandatory e.g. $100 million life insurance policy for the pilots to be paid by the employer, it would raise the cost of accidents such that the risk of hiring inexperienced, poorly trained, or simply overworked pilots, wouldn't be worth it.

There is always another pilot who will take the job, who won't complain about an extra hour, who will willingly lie about working past regulatory max hours, because they have to put food on the table. And some cost cutter will indirectly calculate that the cost of an accident is just part of the cost of doing business, so keep on cost cutting. Occasional accidents are fine. Same as many other industries.

Interesting as I just watched last night on Netflix, “Love, Death & Robots Episode 14: Zima Blue” which is a story very similar to the robot from the article.
The $20/hr at McD's in Denmark comes from my memory of previous discussion on this topic. For examples, https://www.businessinsider.com/denmark-mcdonalds-pays-20-ho... , "Fast food workers make a minimum of $20 hourly in Denmark, while in the US, their average hourly wage is $8.90, according to the Times report." and from https://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2014/sep/03... :

> Statistics Denmark is the government agency that tracks labor information. For the category of food service counter attendants, the annual pay in 2012 was over $41,000. That is for all companies, not just McDonald’s. On an hourly basis, that translates to about $20 an hour.
You can debate inflation, but does anyone really expect our government to do the right thing when it comes to spending and taxation?
The bulk of the work is cleaning up each of the scans, re-framing the picture, balancing the color, and making sure the correct takes are used, rather than simply applying an EDL.

It's possible ML could help with a lot of that, but the budget just isn't there.

While it was shot on film, the effects weren't, each has to be created again, not just the external scenes like the Defiant shooting something, but scenes like Odo morphing

I just featured another product, exactly opposite Blogcast. Giving a vote for Blogcast as well.
npm was especially broken with disk space, above and beyond what Go has ever had, so their problem was much worse.

And my point is not that disk space is never an issue. That's why I said it was a minority issue, not "not an issue". My point is more than Go is not a language about addressing every fiddly minority's issues. It's definitely about the 20% that does 80% of the work. So waiting for a language lead by a philosophy like that to address a disk space issue is probably not a good plan.

To be a bit more constructive, I'd observe I've had great experiences with cross-compiling. On the chance you're disk-space limited because you're developing right on a target resource-constrained device, you may be able to move your development to a more powerful system, even of a different architecture, and cross-compile fairly easily. I often have a workflow where I just "go build blahblahblah && rsync blahblahblah target:blahblahblah && ssh target blahblahblah" and I just press up & enter on a shell when I want to push & test the code. As long as you've got half-decent bandwidth to the target device, it's fine. There may be a couple of other buttons you may want to push to speed that up, because IIRC when cross-compiling it'll end up building the entire app, and you'll want to pre-compile things for the new arch.

Banned in 1996, same as the USA. I'm not sure how heavily it was phased out before then. Certainly newer vehicles were already using unleaded petrol at the time.
I did not mean to sound snobby. In fact, the opposite, I was stating that despite all those things, I still find programming very difficult.

And I applaud you for learning it and am impressed. You likely have a much higher aptitude than me to be able to learn a difficult skill without an extensive background.

But surely you don't disagree that ex-cons or coal miners are an odd choice to target with government programs to teach them to code?

You seem like an extreme exception. Or do you feel like many of those you came in contact with in incarceration would also be well suited to do what you are doing?

And in case I didn't make it clear in my first post, there is nothing wrong or lesser about trade jobs like plumbing, electrical, welding, etc. They are challenging and honorable professions that may end up outlasting software development when the automation/a.i. monster comes knocking.

PewDiePie has an audience of 60 million if I remember correctly. For comparison, ~120 million people voted in the US 2016 elections.

If you are thinking that 60 million people are all toxic and gross and represent everything that is wrong with internet and gaming culture, with respect, you're being an extremist. Just like those in that community who are noisy enough to get your attention.
I think the problem is that most people in 1st world countries have never feared for their lives or for others. The past 100 years has made the world really safe for modern society, where we no longer rely on our own ability to keep us safe or our families, but rely solely on police.

I think you would have commented how I did if you have had your life threatened before, and now see how docile/weak our modern society has made us. It's a really dangerous place to be in.

I foresee us being pushed around by anyone with any sort of authority at all in the future, and the idea of protesting will come to end and some form/version of government will be the last one of it's kind and we will all just accept it, like it seems we are being trained for.

Edit: I had just recently watched this retched video before commenting here, as I see way to often people making a clear stance with limited or no information to base it on. It was disturbing and I feel my comments are justified. If anyone else knows the entirety of the contents of the video and are not disturbed emotionally, something is wrong with them.

Getting tenure in academia involves going a decade or longer with very minimal savings to begin with, getting paid way below industry standards for the amount of education and experience you have, and not getting tenure in a lot of universities results in you being let go if you were on a tenure-track. I'd rather have the savings to blow on a risky venture that could succeed than the majority of my young adult life be spent underpaid and overworked to get the ability to write grants all day and deal with administrative tasks.
this is certainly just a neat gimmick, but it's interesting to me for a particular reason: the Stadia box uses an AMD GPU, and per the Google announcement, all the style transfer is done in real time.
