They are great as well! Especially Csound. That's where I started. In fact, Sporth uses a lot of DSP code adapted from Csound.

From a language/syntax standpoint, you're still typing way more keystrokes with Csound to do equivalent things in Sporth.

Design philosophies are different as well. Csound is divided up into an orchestra/score, where the orchestra defines the signal flow of an instrument, and the score has instructions on when to play the instruments. Sporth can only define a sound in terms of signal flow, similar to a modular synthesizer. In Csound terms, it's the equivalent of having a single Csound instrument that is always on.

Performance-wise, I've found that Csound has a slight edge, but not by that much. Both are mainly written in C, and both perform quite well in real-time. I use low-end hardware, and I almost never have any issues myself. I wouldn't recommend sporth for embedded systems at all, and to be careful when using it on a raspberry pi 1 (but I said the same thing about Csound too).

From a code infrastructure standpoint, Sporth is way cleaner. And this is mainly what motivated me to write Soundpipe + Sporth, and the biggest strength. It's a very tiny language... the core of it is only a few thousand lines of reasonably C code, with the rest of it being ugen code, which is repetitive and easy to understand. It is built inside of a POSIX environment using simple Makefiles. Sporth code is pretty portable, and can be trivially dropped into a project (AudioKit does exactly this). Csound, on the other hand, is a massive code base full of very cryptic legacy C code, with bits of C++ thrown in for good measure, and uses CMake.

Csound has an amazing collection of opcodes for creating sounds. It's an amazing ecosystem to explore. Sporth has 224 unit generators, which is a lot, but a fraction of what Csound has to offer.

> They love being outraged

I find this too, and I'm fascinated with this aspect of our new online world. I wonder why and how. I'm guessing outrage is a way of feeling superior to other people, "How can they be so stupid, I'm so happy I'm smarter than them and know the truth!" (Trying to think if this would apply to online public shamers, I guess so.).

I'm guessing the loneliness, insecurities and FOMO created by online social networks has lead to this. Although it was TV before that, there are reports of how Bhutan's society suffering negative things after the introduction of TV in 1999 (e.g. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3812275.stm )

I don't think it's a minefield of a question. In general if you want to know how women feel about it you need to either poll some you feel comfortable talking with or read enough experiences to get a good sense of opinion. I don't think you can derive other people's experience simply by thinking about it and or asking the wrong people. "Guys" is indeed standard language, but if you look at language the standard overwhelmingly favors men. Using "guys" maybe isn't the worst thing you can do, but if you believe in death by 1000 papercuts it's worth considering whether it matters to keep using it, or if you can switch to a different term. Personally I'm not attached to the word and to me it sounds like yet another way women are implicitly removed via language, so it's an easy decision to just pick another word.
Good suggestions. I’ve added them to my personal backlog. Unfortunately Founder is too busy to do them right this minute.
I don't really see your perspective or premise here -- not sure what you're arguing against. I don't think the interview (or production, or whatever it is) is trying to make broad strokes across the "women's movement" or focus on sexual orientation or other things you mention.

However, I do see it as a chance to raise awareness that women in running (and likely other sports) face more challenges than men in regard to pressures to lose weight, health impacts of the sport (psychiatric and physical), bullying or such treatment by coaches, etc. And much of this can be improved at the coaching level.
There's almost no firm with a bar to entry as high as Rentec when it comes to hiring, and almost certainly none with the amount of people who have cleared such a bar. Some smaller firms still hire similar quality, but RenTec has been around for so long and always has attracted the best candidates. It's not as simple as saying "they hire smart candidates" it's that they've hired the outright best in the market when possible.

I love when people claim to not care about arguments from authority. "Sorry doc, I don't care about your medical degree or years of experience!"

Yes you do.
Ideally, this is how it works. Ideally you could even be a 0.5x engineer and make everybody else a 3x engineer and the team would still come out ahead.

That sort of work often goes unrecognized though, if you are an in-the-trenches engineer. Unless your manager is pretty hands on and spends time “in the trenches” with the team they won’t see that. Most organizations reward selfishness and punish benevolence. Not on purpose. They just can’t see it, because they are too far removed from the work and benevolence is nontrivial to measure. So it takes a back seat to trivial measures.

Compared with Russell's day, we have those magic replicators. Agricultural technology today is such that one farmer can feed thousands of people. We're off in an asymptote where we gets closer and closer to zero cost for basic needs, but the workweek never gets shorter. Clearly it would be ridiculous if one single farmer were able to support the needs of all of humanity but we still had to work the same as when each pre-industrial farmer only supported about 4 people. So at what point do we start seeing the benefits of this "replicator" (in the limit) technology?

That is definitely a reasonable interpretation. But I think if I'm violating their ToS, then almost every non-trivial use of the IFRAME API is violating their API. Google is a big company, and I think it's likely that the IFRAME API team and the legal team were just not in sync on this.

I am definitely not trying to imply that anyone is being a "random a-hole", I'm just hoping I can find a way to appeal to a sympathetic project manager or decision maker at YT that can see the value in this project.

On the other hand, corridors in Half Life 1 were very well designed and not-fear inducing, especially in the beginning of the game - with colored lines on walls marking the routes to important destinations[1].

I've just started a new position in the last couple of months, and my junior status and need to learn a large codebase and set of tooling has me studying almost all day every day.

I'm pretty sure I'm absorbing this massive application and all the external transactions it does pretty fast, all things considered.

If I was constantly interrupting my train of thought and research to 'sync up' or 'collaborate' or whatever other personal fear of missing out that you're strapping your team into massaging, I'd dare say I won't be a solid contributor anywhere near as fast.

Assume everyone thinks the way you do and you throw away the chance for them to excel under even a slightly different structure.
I'm going to be a little nitpicky here: This would be grammar checking, not spell checking. "Slow" is spelled correctly, it's just not the right word (adjective vs adverb).

This also seems to still be in the experimentation phase and is not released as far as I can tell and may never actually make it into Chromium based on:

This would be amazing, but it's an open question in my mind if it's possible to have a system that works sufficiently well for both OLTP and OLAP use cases at large scale. HTAP systems today are still very raw, and it intuitively feels like we'll be bumping into the Pareto frontier, where optimizing for analytics use cases can only come at the expense of transactional performance.
I hope it’s doesn't copy “Amazon Basics”. Cus that stuff is worse than no frills brands. It’s okay for things where you have to actively sabotage something to make it poorly like wire shelves or something, but anything where cheapness shows up it’s like a cheap suit from J.C. Penney’s. <<shudder>>
Not that it's entirely equivalent (man hours of maintaining the local hardware/software vs man hours of AWS), but you could buy ~22.5TB of RAM outright for the price of using the 1TB AWS instance for $7/hour, assuming a current price of $2.75/GB of RAM. If you only need the 1 TB (5% cost), you could put difference ($58,000) towards hardware and an engineer at quarter time to maintain the hardware.

Bonus: you get to keep the hardware.

What you describe is how I write as well.

I've tried the 'never edit your first pass' approach before, and I found that my ideas flowed like sandpaper instead of silk. It was awful. I simply do not think in that manner.
i'm not familiar with the temeraire novels, but based on your description the naming system makes total sense to me - and definitely sounds more natural to native ears.

it looks like they're using personal name conventions for the dragons rather than species names. for example, in the name 龙玉平, 龙 would be the surname/family name, and 玉平 would be the given name.

the 'family name' is shared amongst all dragons, while dragons of the same species share the same first syllable in their given names. this mirrors how chinese siblings will often share a syllable in their given names (sometimes known as 'generation names').

not sure if any of this is intentional, of course - but from my perspective, those names work well to humanize the dragons.
Right now, it's quite easily to turn off Firefox's use of DNS-over-HTTPS, using about:config (or, like me, blocking the "canary domain" via my internal DNS servers).

On a larger scale, however, this won't work. We can't expect every application to honor such "workarounds" -- they will, of course, do what's best for them.

That's my biggest problem with this "movement" -- removing the choice from the end user (at home) or those managing the network (at work).

Yet again, I think it mostly comes down to "we know what's best for you".

How come a standard (network) protocol for SQL RDBMS'es never came to be? Sort of JDBC, but based on TCP (HTTP?) not Java.
Yes, this is how it should work. Assuming your 1x engineers are smart, competent engineers with relevant real world experience under their belts (and are not recent code school grads)... they should have a great deal of input into architecture decisions. They should never have architecture level stuff thrust upon them. Too many cooks spoil the broth indeed but nobody should be doing this stuff in isolation and dictating it unless perhaps you’re doing truly bleeding edge shit and your 10x engineer is a true, Carmackian generational talent.

However.

Howwwwwever....

The ILLUSION of democratic (or at least collegial) meritocracy is how our faux-10x engineer pulled the wool over folks’ eyes. He gave the appearance of soliciting feedback. We had internal RFCs and everything. But in the end though he really did just push his ideas through unmolested, because he had management's blessing to do so.

Not sure how much was an intentional masquerade on his part. I think he really did think it was a meritocracy and his ideas were simply the best. It is certainly not unheard-of for folks to fail to recognize their own privilege. Whatever the case, management enabled it. He was not an awful guy in general, and I rather liked him, just not as architect-dictator.

One of his favorite tactics was to spend weeks or months coming up with something in isolation. If you raised objections he’d brush them off by demanding to know your alternative. Which was horseshit - how could you have a viable alternative when he’d had weeks to come up with his idea and you’d only had 10 seconds, especially when these "ideas" are his fulltime responsibility and your responsibility is to ship 40 or 50 hours' worth of software a week. And past experiences had taught you resistance was futile anyway, so why pour your heart into a doomed battle in this latest bit of asymmetrical warfare?

This tactic played well to management though. He looked like the brilliant idea guy and you looked like the negative Nancy. This is a very common bit of political and rhetorical warfare and you see it everywhere.

It is, essentially, a tactic that has much in common with the dreaded "Gish gallop" - you fling stuff at your opponent faster than they could possibly refute it.
