I am using Starling Bank. As far as I know they are profitable - they offer enterprise services (payment processing, etc) and use that to subsidise free consumer-facing services.

What I don’t understand however is how the other challenger banks didn’t see this coming. Like how do you decide to build a bank and take millions of VC funding without a reasonable path to profitability? Also I think Monzo could’ve done well had they not taken VC money and spent it all - they do have a good product, they could’ve charged a token amount for it (1£/month?) and at scale it would’ve been decent revenue (they’re at 3 million customers now).

The show is kinda closer to the pre-martial-arts-boom idea of magical, mystical ninja in Japan, though. It literally borrows character names from that. Jiraiya for example.
I love the Acer Aspire E5 series. I have the E5-575g with an i5 and 16gb ram (they go up to 32gb). Here’s the 576g with 8gb and a newer CPU than I have, for $599...

It’s got a 1080p screen, dual video out (hdmi + vga), gigabit ethernet, usb-c, Bluetooth and the battery easily lasts over 10 hours with Manjaro Linux. Everything works under Linux and the ram, ssd and wifi are user serviceable.

I think that's reversed. They gathered a following by posting this way.
Similar opinion here. I had a lot of trouble grasping the idea until a minute into the video where you show the timeline aspect. I'd try to explore some other UI layouts. There's something a bit off in making a user click the graph, move eyes down to the timeline, then back up to the article.

(thinking aloud, Perhaps de-emphasize the graph (make it smaller?) and make the timeline vertical / leftish-center? then give the article more room for reading. Or possibly put graph&timeline at top then the article below so the article can be viewed in full & scrolled without any frame windowing.)
It varies by event. Personal pacers in the marathon are uncommon to begin with. In ultramarathons they are specifically not allowed until late in the race. That a track event would rule that way had become an unfortunate expectation.
Why? Because they're the same ethnicity? You think they think they same way because they're the same ethnicity. To object to calling that racism is frankly childish. That kind of thinking is the how we got Executive Order 9066 despite an investigation finding no evidence of any fifth column among Japanese Americans. The fact that there are people that think like you do strengthens my belief that another Executive Order 9066 is nowhere near as impossible as people would like to believe.
Actually, it's unfettered state capitalism in this case. Stalin mandated Norilsk's development to enrich the state. Similar to the modern Chinese model. So socialism has little to nothing to do with it.
When I was there, they were migrating away from perforce because they could no longer scale perforce fast enough to meet demand. I've not seen this talked about much outside of Amazon.

It was also a huge day-to-day quality of life improvement for the users (the developers.) There are UX problems with git, but they pale in comparison to the UX problems with perforce which is truly unpleasant software.
How new are you talking about?
> The problem with for profit utilities is that they are incentivized to keep things as lean as possible. They neglect maintenance of their infrastructure and use that money for bonuses and dividends.

They aren't incentivised to be excessively lean. The incentive structure for someone who has spent a fortune on expensive capital investment is to maintain it.

There is no point incentive to build a vast system of poles and wires then letting it degrade over time.

Anyway, it won't be capitalist incentives at work; it will be something in the details of the regulations. In Australia, due to poor market regulations, we have the opposite problem where our utilities spend far too much on grid maintenance.
Like the sibling mentions, yaegi seems to do that today (though I haven't used it).

The method I wrote about doesn't seem particularly any more conducive to making a REPL than progressively building a valid Go program with each line and compiling/running that (since Go's compiler is very fast).

However, there may be some benefits to prototyping in an environment like this where you can ignore types for a bit.

IIUC from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copernicium all most of the macroscopic properties are just predicted in computer simulations.

If we could produce enough Copernicium and magically disable the radioactive decay, the bounds between atoms is predicted to be so low that is predicted to be a liquid in the article, or a gas in Wikipedia.

If we can't disable the radioactive decay, you could look while it disappear in front of your eyes (halving every 30 seconds, I hope you bought a lot of it). But also the radioactive decay will create a lot of heat, so it will get hot, glow and evaporate (and probably destroy the lab). So it's would be difficult to see if it is a liquid at room temperature experimentally.

In Wikipedia there are the description of a few experiments with two or three Copernicium atoms. They get adsorbed over a gold surface for a short time until they decay. To get something like a glass of liquid selenium, you need something like 10^24 atoms, that is much more than the few atoms that is posible to get simultaneously.

Is IPSec VPN a IKEv2 on either LibreSwan or StrongSwan connected to FreeRadius for authentication? What are the clients you connect from? Is it stable?
I see where you're coming from. I sometimes get that feeling too. The way I approach this is by asking myself if the author could have expressed their ideas with simpler words or if some meaning would have been lost had they tried to simplify. Could I have reformulated anything without loss and without paraphrasing or resorting to examples?

It's like Dijkstra's famous quote: "The purpose of abstraction is not to be vague, but to create a new semantic level in which one can be absolutely precise". Did the author need to invoke these abstract concepts and complicated wordings to be absolutely precise or did they throw around abstractions in over-engineered sentences to make themselves look intelligent?

Since I can't claim to understand the topic and the author's message fully, I can't be certain it's one or the other. All I have is a subjective feeling, but I think the author was trying to be precise and that each word had its genuine place at least in the author's point of view.

For example, when I read the last sentence of the introduction "following Hutto & Myin’s solution that real-world content depends on shared scaffolded practices that augment basic agents, we explore socially situated computing as an approach to naturalizing information content in computing", my internal bullshit alarm was ringing pretty loud, but it turns out each of the concepts gets expanded upon in the rest of the text.

I think overall this text was a challenging read but one benefit of it beyond the author's message is that I learned of the existence of this topic and line of thought in the first place, and it certainly piqued my curiosity.
We have the same today. Web apps will have sometimes been tested for only one browser. I've definitely seen a warning stating to switch to Chrome for example when using FF.
> It seems very unlikely that they will interact with human physiology in a meaningful way.

Human physiology depends very much on various bacteria. Supposedly, there are 10 times as many bacterial cells than human cells in our bodies. Perhaps you should reconsider your attitude if you take into account that bacteria from Mars might wreak havoc on these bacteria?

I never really understood why they stayed with building a giant 3d printer farm to build all those 3d printer parts, except for it being "cool". Especially in .cz, I think think they could have gotten all those parts injection moulded for a lower cost. At a higher precision.
Exposing an "FFI" is definitely a step along the way in any project like this, though I've never personally found it particularly straightforward (or fun). It does open up the floodgates for functionality though.
Where's the money going to come from, and who's going to do it?

I wasn't making much above minimum wage working as a programmer at a university. People with computer science degrees don't tend to take such jobs, when they've got half the west coast waving 6-figure job offers at them.

Again, it comes down to the user and the customer not being the same person. The person reading the research paper would sure like it to have been written (or at least debugged) by an expert programmer, but it would be some department who would have to have paid for such a programmer. Departments don't have budget for that, and their currency is publication, not correctness proofs.

(I assume departments would have to pay, because we paid for all other IT services. We even had to pay the university for network access. It's not like the library, which is always free to everyone on campus.)
Even though Linux distributions have been slowly dropping support for running on 32-bit systems nobody is talking about dropping 32-bit multilib support. The cost is primarily disk space, and Apple could just make 32-bit libraries an optional download.
Probably much less. It is not just running form that makes elite runners efficient. Due to both genetics and training, their bodies use fuel more efficiently, too.
I can imagine this might happen in theory, but have you come across evidence of this in practice?

Dogfooding is valuable. If there is a fundamental flaw in their printers, they're going to find out about it firsthand.

It is also nice to know that I can print replacement parts and that my replacement is pretty much identical to the original.

IIRC it was done that way as a way to follow the optimal path, instead of eyeballing it and taking corners too wide and adding more distance. Might not seem like much, but he had to shave off less than a minute of his previous attempt, so every little helps.
In last few months I've travelled to the US a few times. In all 3 hotels I've stayed in, I've had to switch rooms (in one hotel even 3 times in the course of a week) due to low frequency noise of ACs of neighbouring rooms and/or general ventilation system. Ear plugs simply don't cut it anymore these days.
Aah why did they complicate tree style tabs. I tried once again to use it after they changed it but I'm not going to create some userChrome.css file on all my systems to hide the native tabs, and the plugin looks stupid now with some big "Tree Style Tab" header :( Why doesn't Mozilla just implement this natively. Do that Sherlock thing! Its just a super feature. I want to do Prefences->Show Tabs as a Tree, get it synced, and just never use Chrome!
Sure, but they've kept doing it for many years now. At some point it shifts into some kind of "religion". Or, judging from your response, it's a part of their brand?
This is pretty similar to openstack's oslo.config, but without the schema for the parameters. If you want validation, and ini rather than yaml, oslo.config may be your thing.
It's absolutely possible that you are right and I'm not doing him justice.
For those of us who have only ever run shorter distance, this is an average mile time over the whole course of about 4:33.84 minutes.

The current world record for a single mile is 3:43.13, which would shave about 22 minutes off the two hours, for a hypothetical 1:38:00 minimum time if we assume perfectly linear extrapolation of human physiology given the proper training techniques (seems unlikely, given that you would need 26 pacers that could all run at world record pace or something like that). Said another way this would allow one to run about 6 additional miles in the same time if you could sustain the pace for the duration rather than the distance.
Modern tech companies enjoy maintaining the delusion that developers that make apps and content on their platforms are extensions of their employees and contractors and they have the right to dictate and control their development. This is obviously bullshit. The security argument is a red herring since a third party can maintain a trusted software list without all the conflicts of interest.
This. Winning is not how can I rip em off. Winning is a feeling of fairness in all parties and repeat business.
> I'd estimate that 100% of sample implementations in published research papers have bugs.

> Researchers, even in computer science, are usually not skilled programmers. The product for them is the paper, not a program.

This is so silly and misleading. Any nontrivial software is likely to have bugs, whoever the producer or customer or user may be. That's not the point. Merely having a bug doesn't invalidate an algorithm any more than lacking one validates it. Moreover, even when there isn't a bug, there's still no guarantee you can reproduce results exactly -- stuff like your compiler's particular handling of floating-point may well change the outputs.

Finding a bug that doesn't change the substance of some research is nothing to be smug about, whether it's obvious or subtle. All you'd be doing is wasting your time trying to prove that you're a good programmer and the author is a bad programmer, when that very 'bad programmer' is being productive and advancing science without getting hung up on irrelevant details. The metric you have to care about is finding bug that materially affects the conclusion being drawn from the experiment; that's the rate you need to report here.
Didn't work for me either on Android Firefox, but played in Chrome.
I keep coming back to; simpleton economic incentives can't fix a lack of good faith. I first noted that when reading Samuel Pepys diary entry where he crows both about the fat kick back he got on an order timber for ships masts. And the really good price he got as well.
Having just built a MK3S and not having done much printing before, it was nice to see just what kind of things you could build. The level of detail, how to design the parts that need to be somewhat strong etc.

Another point is that it allows you to print spare parts for your own or a friends printer if something breaks, or print upgraded parts if they tweak the design.
Both Facebook and Amazon have terrible search engines.

Why is it more fragile than the same objc runtime in 64 bit?
From the article:

> Luo’s results did not match up with the NMR values that Williams’ group had previously calculated, and according to Sun, when his students ran the code on their computers, they realized that different operating systems were producing different results. Sun then adjusted the code to fix the glitch, which had to do with how different operating systems sort files.
I find that airlines tickets in Wallet will update automatically if the gate or boarding times change. Maybe it is related to that?
Nobody believed it though, not even the_Donald. If that was the point it failed quite spectacularly. Hope her campaign tosses it as a silly idea and not make any more fuss around it.

Truly high marks should only go to a student, previously unknown by the Department, who surreptitiously adds a graded report card into the midst of their peers.
I think it's problematic because it creates perverse incentives to make more criminals. And there are religious / moral concerns about taking parts of your body after you die without consent.

But I also understand that the biggest objections are the religious / moral ones, and I don't know maybe that doesn't bother people as much in China?
So does it feel like this is the first genuinely plug and play 3D printer...? That's always been one of the things that puts me off, I don't want to have to learn so much...
Most of the world is doing the same unfortunately and I dont see anyone screaming about that.

Yes, its that bad and people think mostly about themselves. If something does not impact you directly it does not exist.
I really like how type checking is implemented for parameter lists. I think there's a more generalized extension of this.

Specifically, I think that there exists a lisp with a set of axioms that split program execution into "compile-time" execution (facts known about the program that are invariant to input) and a second "runtime" execution pass (facts that depend on dynamic input).

For example, multiplying a 2d array that's defined to be MxN by an array that's defined to be NxO should yield a type that's known to be MxO (even if the values of the array are not yet known). Or if the first parameter is known to be an upper-triangular matrix, then we can optimize the multiplication operation by culling the multiplication AST at "compile-time". This compile-time optimized AST could then be lowered to machine code and executed by inputting "runtime" known facts.

I think that this is what's needed to create the most optimally efficient "compiled" language. Type systems in e.g. Haskell and Rust help with optimization when spitting out machine code, but they're often incomplete (e.g., we know more at compile time than what's often captured in the type system).

I've put "compilation" in quotes, because compilation here just means program execution with run-time invariant values in order to build an AST that can then be executed with run-time dependent values. Is anyone aware of a language that takes this approach?
Wow, elegant. This was probably conceived as an idea during the design phase of the language, it seems right.

There are numerous public utilities in California, and elsewhere.

Generally the costs are lower and service levels higher than privately-held corporations.

Granted, most munis don't have to deal with long-distance distribution, though there are four federal power administrations which do, the Bonneville, Southeastern, Southwestern, and Western Area Power Administrations. Also the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Luna Display does exactly that - just mirror your display to your iPad and anything you do on your iPad shows on your Mac display too. Best thing about Luna is it gets you Pencil support on the Mac. People have been ditching Wacom tablets since the iPad has dramatically better (lower) latency.

There’s a lot of ways humans can ruin the environment even without global warming.
Google is famous for this type of attrition damage tactic. Read this: https://twitter.com/johnath/status/1116871231792455686

It goes like this: Google bans or disables something, then they pretend they made a mistake, but still delay fixing it for days or weeks while giving amateurish explanations for these delays. In the end what this tactic achieves, is hampering a software Google disapproves (or competes against). The tired users switches to a different software (made by google?) or stop using the software altogether. The same tactic targets competing developers.

Exactly - I'll still us my Luna Display because it has features Sidecar doesn't.
Correct, it may get pulled at any time for any reason. Any DMCA notice (valid or invalid) will also typically pull your extension for about a month, if you're lucky. If you rely on your extension to pay rent you should probably try to make sure you have a personal contact somewhere in that part of Google because they will probably break it eventually.

b) provided all of the parts as 3d models for for spares

I was interested in upgrading my 3d printer to a prusa model.. but... the having the parts being built to subpar-precision using a FDM printer in a Czech 3d printer cluster didn't seem super exciting in itself...
If he is really 40, which I don't believe, that would make this record even more remarkable.
Thing is China already got rich by trading with rest of the world. Their middle class amounts to like 50% of total population.

The way China spends that money is very smart - they will be self sustained soon by buying up Africa.

They dont care about rest of the world, they dont have to. Soon not USA but China will be the biggest imperium on Earth.

The main problem with modern discourse is coexistence is not enough. You either convert to the other persons position or you are sub-human and therefore not worthy of even existing.
