I think that, ultimately, your last point will be true.
Many things about liberty in places like the UK seem to be treated as some kind of dogma rather than something that we can use to improve and enjoy life more. So people spend a lot of time arguing about them, but don't seem to do much with them (other than argue, I guess).

The attitudes towards the type of things in this article are also much more positive from people I talk to in China. Not just random samples online, people that I know and trust. The social credit system for example, people are generally a bit uneasy about it (given the past of their country) but not against it, the practical impact that it can have to them seems like it's worth it.

Technology in general seems to be met with much less cynicism and doubt there than the UK.

So personally I think that I agree with the notion that these kinds of systems truly have the potential to be effective, and that somewhere like the UK is going to be incapable of harnessing them in the way that somewhere like China is. And as this becomes increasingly apparent the reaction that other countries will have will be interesting and perhaps scary. Will america become increasingly confrontational? Try to instigate something in Taiwan? Idk.

2025 is the year that I've chosen to wait until before I make a judgement as to how messed up things really are.
There needs to be a proper segmentation of wealthy. Your anecdote is of the quintessentially uneducated “get rich or die trying” population, where money is the new solar deity.
In a classroom, it only needs to recognize 30 people. That seems doable.

Car makers also claim to work on detecting dozing off of drivers. What about it should be impossible? Detecting if eyes are open or shut sounds doable, unless everybody is wearing sunglasses.
(I work at Hasura)

Yep! We’ve put in a lot of effort to ensure hasura Just Works on an existing db.

Incidentally, to address your last point, Hasura has its own rails like migrations system and an admin UI (that allows DDL and DML) and works well with your existing migrations tooling too if you have it already. The hasura admin UI can create the rails style migration files automatically on your disk as you work on the UI.

Your documentation indicates that you've tried with core.untrackedCache, but have you tried core.fsmonitor with the watchman hook?

Obviously your "gitstatus" is still generally useful, but if your main itch you're trying to scratch is to have a faster "status" in a particular repo then you should be able to get that down to a few milliseconds with "git status", if you're willing to have watchman sit in the background and monitor it.

On the topic of describing the events of the code (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) in great detail, there have been studies showing that bringing the family into the room during a code leads to decreased PTSD for the family.

From a study in the New England Journal of Medicine: "Conclusions: Family presence during CPR was associated with positive results on psychological variables and did not interfere with medical efforts, increase stress in the health care team, or result in medicolegal conflicts."

I grew up in a conservative, Protestant family and I might be able to shed a little bit of light on this. A few points, simply based on the environment I grew up in, which means of course this is just one perspective on just one religious denomination - I won't provide more caveats than that:

- Christians take the afterlife very seriously. One must be judged by God. Regardless of how confident you are in your final destination, the prospect of being called to account for your actions in front of an omnipotent being is not something they take lightly.

- Protestant Christianity teaches that one must be "saved", that is, accept Jesus Christ and have a profound spiritual experience and subsequent spiritual connection with God. Many Christians are honest people who may not have had such an experience and are aware of this fact, which naturally creates fear when the end of life approaches. In other words, they may have doubts about whether or not they are indeed saved. The alternative to being saved of course, is spending an eternity in hell. As you might imagine, this can be nerve-wracking.

- Christians believe that whether or not someone ought to live or die is in God's hands. They take the view that whatever humans ought to do to extend life ought to be done, since death will come when God wills it. Choosing to stop life support is tantamount to choosing to end someone's life, a power they believe only God wields righteously.

- Lastly, regardless of one's personal or religious beliefs, death is scary. I think the appropriate reaction to a Christian (or any other religious person) who is terrified that they, or their loved one, may die, is not observing that this fear may be incompatible with their professed beliefs. The appropriate reaction is compassion.

Note: I'm an atheist, so telling me that all or part of the above is irrational is...uh...preaching to the choir.

We do millions of edges in the browser fine via webgl (graphistry.com / https://github.com/graphistry/pygraphistry ) .

For forceatlas and other interactive & iterative analytics algs (t-sne, ...), it's hard to keep 100K+ nodes interactive via webgl. Most webgl attempts go naive all-to-all O(n^2), so the graph size quickly hits a ceiling. We rewrote to use GPUs end-to-end in the server so we can do trickier opencl/cuda algs that achieve O(nlogn) and O(n). Funny enough, users don't notice round trip costs -- or get even faster perf -- as our 2.0 engine does live streaming between client/cloud to hit ~20fps, similar to how streaming movies keep up frame rate.

I'm pretty familiar with how all this works on the FDA side with medical devices/software.

If it's the same general setup as on the medical side with the FDA, then it's a virtual certainty that liability will fall with some compliance and QA types, as well as any engineers or engineering managers who signed the relevant documents. Those signatures are all legally binding, and represent to everyone up the chain that the systems in question are functioning properly. If the government can show that the systems in question could not have been functioning properly, they got you. (Another thing we learned from our lawyers about the FDA side, each document that you signed, represents one count of lying to the federal government at a minimum. Multiply that by the number of documents signed to get a single system through, and you get an idea of why you should never sign anything if you have any reservations at ALL. No matter how slight the reservation. No matter how much pressure the higher ups put on you. I think the rules are the same on the FAA side. So these guys have really stepped in it.)

That said, they may be able to snag a few executives here or there, but only if they can prove who knew what, and when. Execs, you would think, would be pretty careful about liability type things, so they could look very hard and not find anything on any of the execs. It would not be collusion or preferential treatment, it's just hard to find that kind of a smoking gun in a mountain of electronic documents and messages. (I strongly suspect that if the government were to press hard enough though, that some of the engineering managers and compliance types would turn state's evidence to get lighter sentences. At that point, you could probably get some execs I'd imagine? Still might be hard though.)

The engineers and QA/Compliance folks, though, should really be consulting with outside counsel. Just as a precautionary measure. I wouldn't trust Boeing execs to not throw me under the bus.

And this time around, it looks like a pretty big bus. I don't think you survive this hit.

This looks promising. We haven't seen a lot of new languages lately that could turn into viable alternatives to C. Muon binaries don't seem to have a runtime or other dependencies so it looks like a module written in Muon can be statically linked into an existing C/C++ project. Pretty cool.
Piketty has argued persuasively that conflict, chaos, and tumult are historically among the primary drivers of equality. It's no surprise the billionaires don't want any of that!

The real implementation of ListDir accepts the descriptor of the directory it needs to list (not parent_fd plus dirname like it's done in the article) and doesn't close it. This is fairly straightforward. You still have to pass Arena as an extra parameter though, which adds inconvenience, and d_type is still at -1 offset -- a rather unusual thing for an API.

The biggest downside from the API perspective is that directory listing and sorting are bundled in a single function. The insight of v5 in the article is that this bundling allows us to achieve higher performance than what we can get if we have a separate API for listing which we can compose with sorting.

So it's a far cry from the cleanest API you can imagine. Levels of abstractions often have to give way when maximum performance is the goal.

JRPGs look like yet another piece in the puzzle that so many things in contemporary Japanese popular culture seem to peak around the same time in the 90s (anime, fashion, popular music, industrial design etc). I’d guess this too is related to what Masachi Osawa calls the “fictional era” when the national psyche kind of turned inward to escapism and fantasy. I don’t see this talked about much in English or even Japanese for that matter but would be interesting to try to figure out why a cultural output peaked and the stagnated.

> These can be implemented using a subset of the language that does not need them, pretty much like C++ requires 'new' but when writing a kernel you do not have enough functionality to use it - so you don't, until you have provided enough infrastructure for its use. Or in a similar fashion...

Definitely. That subset for languages like Go and JavaScript is, however, so small that nothing is left. And for a kernel, that subset would have to be used in the vast majority of the code base.

If your goal is to write C with Go/JavaScript syntax, then that might be good enough for you, but that's hardly the point of "Should we rewrite in Rust" talks.

> ...most C stdlib functions are also not available when writing a kernel in C (e.g. malloc/free, fopen/fclose, etc) and you simply do not use them until you have enough infrastructure in place to implement them.

Of course, that's also how you'd do it in Rust: Don't use things that aren't there.

The Go runtime won't give you that choice, though, so you'd have to remove that, which removes pretty much all the language features that makes Go... Go.

I think that's exactly right in the typical case.

However, if the company is dealing with a recruitment agency it might be useful for the company to let the agency know why a candidate was not suitable, so that they get better candidates in future, and the recruitment agent (who is a "double agent" really) might pass the information on to the candidate (probably not in writing). I've heard of that happening.

Also, in cases where there isn't a position to be filled, but the interviewee is trying to persuade the company to create the position, in those cases the company can be a bit more open in saying why they have decided not to proceed. I've heard of that happening, too.

And if that's truly your choice, you can choose it. In fact, as the article makes clear, your choice is the default one as things are now.

Then again, I still wouldn't be surprised if most people were just too perplexed if their car suddenly accelerated like crazy and not stay calm and hit the brakes as hard as possible right away.

Added bonus: Driving slower means less fuel usage. Important in countries like Sweden where fuel is expensive. Try driving 70 km/h instead of 90 km/h, the difference is significant with a modern car.
There is a current trend to enable this peaceful dying and I'm a huge fan of allowing people to have the right to die.

But absent cost as a factor (I don't want to blow all my savings on myself - rather leave them to wife+kids), pain isn't a reason for me to go.

My early years were in the rural Third World where I had a whole bunch of near-fatal diseases as a young child and (unrelatedly) nearly committed suicide when I was a late teen, early adult.

The one thing I'd really like is a "resuscitate at all costs" marker. Imagine if there were a consent token marked upon your body, written into your bloodstream. Medical staff just test it and it says "let this man die", "put this woman through all pain so that she may have a few more days", or "kill this person actively if this happens".

There is pain so unbearable I want to quit. But I was wrong so many times in the past. Put me through it again and I'll want to quit but if I make it I'll be glad I failed to.

Force me to live. Let me say I must be forced.

I think you should rephrase those very specific items as belonging to your very specific sect because those ideals don't hold fast and true for most, even Protestants.

> - coal produce radioactive waste too

That's quite a statement. Do you have references?

I mean the nuclear waste from nuclear power plants is ridiculously difficult to handle because of its high temperature. It has to be wrapped in layers of containers - after cooling off for months (years?) in a water bath.

> It boggles my mind that Germany made a great effort on renewable, and used this extra energy to close nuclear plants rather than coals ones. (At the beginning they even had to open more coal plants!) This means that Fukushima (which made Germany close its nuclear plants) killed a lot more people in Germany than in Japan.

Fukushima lead to closing of Nuclear power plants, obviously, and not coal plants. The share of renewables in Germany increased a lot. To my knowledge the only coal power plants that were set up in the recent years were really modern ones. Therefore I cannot follow the argument, could you elaborate?

> Recall that coal is 1000 times more deadly than nuclear per unit of energy (including the nuclear accidents).

Recall also that there is no insurance that covers nuclear power plants but driving a car without insurance is not allowed in most countries.

The difference between coal and nuclear energy is that the latter is very close to the limits of what we can control.
