What I mean is, when you join a team and that team is more productive than if each member were working alone, then every member of the team's value is higher when they are a member of that team.
Both types of kids desire the same thing: to contribute and be relevant to society as they perceive it.

American society has plenty of astronauts and space over acheivers. American society is also very much unplugged from the rest of the planet, so much so that I can say most Americans don't consider good image of their country in the eyes of the non-western world a priority. If this was the cold-war era, American kids might have wanted to help their country look better as compared to the communist world. The difference is that of being the winner and being the losers trying to catch up to the winner. China might be second place in many things but as they say, second place just means you're the first loser. There is a reason "made in china 2025","The 100 year matathon" and "belt and ring project" all have competitive undertones.

America is also an individualistic society where everyone seeks what makes themselves look good and profit while east asian societies tend to be more hive-minded (For a lack of a better expression). I dislike both selfishness and prioritizing the greater nation over your own immediate family and community. If the Nash equilibrum of economics and game theory holds true, I wager the American perspective will result in long term prosperity fot all that follow it, but of course that model does not take into account strife and external malicous actors whose end goal is not to profit but to destroy.
We were (and are) learning as we go on this. Modems and PBXes were very unfamiliar. This might be a fun future goal for us! Never actually thought about that.

My link has dozens of papers that claim to explain the pause. It wasn’t we think there is a pause, they are already explaining why there was one.

I’d say a full issue Nature dedicated to exploring why there was a pause, suggests it was a broadly held idea.

That said, if there was no consensus, why is that? Why do some scientists believe there was a pause, while others disagree? Isn’t figuring out whether warning was happening pretty straightforward?

Not just Muslim countries but also, prominently, India, and parts of East Asia.

An obvious hypothesis: in a poorer country it’s super important to get a decently paying career, so young people of both sexes gravitate towards engineering, as a guaranteed solid paycheque (plus solid potential for emigration to a richer country) whether they’re particularly interested or not.

In richer countries, there’s less pressure to be quite so practical with your career choices, so people have a stronger tendency to do what they’re interested in, rather than what will pay the most.
Question for people who use these CLIs to start projects: Since there's so much prebaked functionality in the generated code, do you get distracted by it, when working on it?

The CLI probably enables a few dozen features, of which you might use a handful of. So there's all these files and configuration code in your project that is never touched/used. I imagine it's a lot of white noise.

Whenever I start new projects, I cleanroom start with an empty git repo. Every line, in every file, has a purpose. (With time, there is some slippage. A feature could get removed, and some code doesn't get eliminated that should, for example). But all in all, the vast majority of the code there serves a purpose.

Little to no mental energy is spent worrying about side effects or filtering through code that's not only not relevant to my current work, but has no present value in the project at all.

I take a functional style, with the above, to allow myself to really be able to focus on my work. I sometimes feel alone in this approach, but it works for me and I see it's benefits. I place a big premium on clarity.
Jobs loved Sony products. I'm sure they were an inspiration to create good products.
They could be different facility types.

Amazon has sort centers, distribution centers, returns processing centers, robotic fulfillment centers, non-robotic fulfillment centers, and maybe other stuff I don't know about.

The people at different warehouse types are often doing different jobs.

According to a quick search, JFK8 is fulfillment center where they do pick and pack, and it's also one of the warehouses with the Kiva robots.

Nano, the simple editor every one loves to rag on for being overly simple, does actually support cursor cut n paste. (Hold shift and move the cursor. Then cut or paste.)

set mouse
set nowrap
set softwrap

With those three lines in ~/.nanorc, it now allows you to click n drag the mouse, and may work over ssh, depending on your terminal support, and wraps lines without inserting actual breaks.

It effectively is Notepad, as far as I'm concerned.
I typically start such a new project by cloning from a boiler plate repo that I created myself. I find those easier to use than CRA.

It's due to the way we've defined the graph in Tensorflow. Static shapes allowed for faster training. We'll be working to remove this limitation in subsequent versions.
It's significantly easier to get to team-based outcomes if you can adhere to a common platform. Finding a common platform by swimming against the stream is just harder. Larger enterprises, which can provide jobs, tend to want team. The history of science/technology is littered with companies which had the courage to give small groups of people budget and time, to do things. We don't often hear about the failures, but I am sure there are many.

Bell happened to be one of those companies. You could walk into another door in Bell (or AT&T) and drive to a room much less tolerant of swimming against the stream.
It's also fair use in at least Sweden if not whole Europe. If you own software, you are allowed to fix it so you can use it.
It's hard to generate perfect images at high resolution. The fact that they are even plausible at high resolution is very impressive. If these were downscaled to 128x128 you would literally not be able to distinguish real from fake.

I never upgraded to FreeNAS 10, it was a significant departure and it was pretty clear ixSystems had made a fumble and was going to end up needing to redirect the ship. Once 11.1 came out and it was clear they learned not to throw baby out with the bathwater I upgraded and have been quite happy with the train since, though I’m glad the “new” dashboard is still optional because it needs some love yet.

> Australian consumer law has a limitation on 2 years or reasonable lifetime.

It's a bit more nuanced than that.

The limitation comes from when the consumer could reasonably have become aware of the fault, not from when the purchase was made.

So in the case of SecuROM, that clock has only just started ticking.

I, unfortunately, didn't get the privilege of getting my hands on an assembly book. At 13, being inspired by the demoscene (I got the Unreal demo on a Simtel CD), I begged my parents to buy me Turbo Assembler. And I somehow thought that the included manual was going to be enough to get started (!). The manual had a great listing of Intel instructions, but I had no understanding of addressing modes, the stack, or what was required to make DOS system calls. Later, when I figured it out in college, I was mad because it was so simple and 13 year old me would have loved it.

Unfortunately, at that time there was no internet, and the public library only carried books on high level languages.

Argh. How I envy you.

By the way, how did you figure out graphics programming?
True, but I don’t think there’s a general purpose programming language whose tooling expresses source code as visual flows of data, that people would use in place of Go, Python etc.
Likewise was skeptical about FaceID, but it is really much nicer to have than TouchID. I'm not a sweaty person at all, but whenever I picked up a DualShock controller for a minute and put it down, my hands were too moist for TouchID to work.
Quite arguably, this puts the consumer in a stronger position in this one case: they purchased a perpetual license for the content, the license was unanimously revoked by the actions rights holder, they now deserve a refund.
Lisp was a competitive advantage for the company that made him rich in the mid-90s. He wouldn't claim it is for a new company starting out now. He later wrote that Python and Ruby were a competitive advantage. They wouldn't be now. But other languages/platforms are. His claim wasn't that Lisp is and will always be a competitive advantage, but that at any time, there is a powerful platform available that few developers/companies have embraced yet, but that could be a competitive advantage to a company that does.

As for Microsoft, it still is dead in the sense that he articulated in that essay; it doesn't offer any novel/powerful/ubiquitous platforms that new companies could or should build new products/companies on. It barely exists as a mobile platform, nobody has built significant new companies out of Windows desktop software in years, and its cloud platform is just one of several, and far from the biggest/best. He never said it would go out of business, just that it would become a generic BigCo, which is exactly what it is.

He also built a new type of investment company that invested in Airbnb, Dropbox, Twitch, Stripe and many other new startups, before any other VC would look at them, and at a tiny fraction of the valuation that other VCs would invest at. That investment model he pioneered has since been imitated countless times around the world - unsuccessfully, in most cases, because he did such a good job that others couldn't seriously compete.

With all that said, I think there's plenty he's been wrong about, but he's been right about the most important stuff, and deserves admiration for that.
The validation's still done by the programmer. If they fail to validate correctly or the validation requirements had a bug, taint mode does nothing to help.
Are you sure all LCDs buffer frames for a full frame duration before displaying? I haven't heard that before. I was under the impression that they basically start displaying them as soon as the GPU sends the frame - any buffering being done on the GPU.
You've managed to put into words something that really bothers me about how software and devices are designed and used at present. An extension of my physical being (which is increasingly how devices are used) should probably be as independent as possible, not a third party service.

I'm curious why you say that. I only run Linux games these days, and most come from GoG. Most tend to have quite good support, and I've had bugs I reported get patched.
It's a hard reality to face. Houses are supposed to not be seen as investments, but realistically are. What happens when your 500k investment is unsellable overnight? On one hand, logic tells us to help displaced folks. On the other, it's that they should have seen this coming. And the third, that these people can realistically afford to take the loss.

As an aside, I drove through Daytona Beach last week and... there was absolutely no beach to be seen. The water was up past the bottom stairs of the seawall. While ignorant of if this was somewhat normal, it definitely made me stop and think...

Ah. I had no idea that they ran out of orphans. If they did, then it would be a perfect analogy. Boys town takes care of all the orphans that it is their mission to take care of, keeps collecting donations and spending on other stuff. The Wikimedia Foundation does everything needed to put an encyclopedia -- the thing that it is their mission to take care of -- keeps collecting donations and spending on other stuff. Thanks for the great analogy, and I apologize for misunderstanding and assuming that there would always be plenty more orphans to take care of.

I am going to think about this, do some research, and see if I can turn it into an essay on Wikipedia about collecting money after the job is done. Thanks!

Didn't the march of dimes also keep taking in donations after polio was eradicated?

CRA sets up a completely working development environment, I can start coding immediatly. The code I have to remove from CRA is minimal (Clean out App.js, delete the CSS file). It saves a _lot_ of mental energy for me.

Otherwise I would first spend half an hour setting up Webpack, Babel, Prettier, eslint etc. before even writing a single line of code.
No, because CRA explicitly encapsulates and hides all that functionality inside the `react-scripts` package. You only add a single dependency to your own app's `package.json`. All the config files are in `node_modules/react-scripts/config` if you really want to look at them, but otherwise they're effectively hidden.

In return, you get:

- A Webpack+Babel build config that has excellent default behavior out of the box for browser support and code splitting, and supports working with many common types of assets including images, CSS, and SASS

- The Jest unit test runner configured to automatically pick up any test files

- A linting ruleset that only warns for potential errors

- An error overlay that pops up whenever there's a UI crash, minimizes irrelevant parts of the stack trace, and lets you jump to the relevant lines in your editor

- The ability to easily update to improvements in the build system (such as this 3.3.0 release) simply by updating the `react-scripts` dependency.

And, CRA has had a _ton_ of work put into it to smooth over various pain points and incompatibilities between browsers, Node, and the various tools that it's built on.

While CRA doesn't have a built-in way to override its config files, there are several widely used "CRA override" tools like `craco` [0] that allow you to opt-in to modifying parts of the config to suit your needs. I personally no longer have a need to "eject" a CRA project, as the override tools are more than sufficient to let me make whatever config edits I need (such as [1]).

CRA has eliminated the question of "How do I set up a working build setup for a React project?", and made it way easier for folks to write tutorials that focus on the code, not the build setup.

I don’t believe that economic power is the same as coercive power. The former let’s you dangle a carrot in front of people. The latter let’s you threaten to kill them. There’s a difference, and democracy (with constitutional restrictions) should IMHO primarily be a way to distribute coercive power.
It's probably just limitation of LCD. I remeber using laptop in 90s and refresh rate was so bad that if you moved a mouse it was not visible (the motion blur special effect for the mouse pointer in early Windows helped a bit with this, I was also wondering if maybe that was the reason it existed).

Since then LCD studios made huge progress, but maybe still can't compare with CRT.

OLED magnitude faster than LCD, I'm wondering how these compare.

That's a good strategy, I occasionally use that too, but a better strategy is to keep isolating often repeated functionality in your project and turn them into library packages, so you can simply add them as a dependency from now on. This way, you boilerplate becomes smaller over time or you can even start from scratch easily.

That came, worked very nicely, then went with the first version or two of Google desktop search. Would search web history, local documents - word and excel included, and present it in an interface much like Google search at the time. Far as I remember all data was kept locally - it wasn't the Googleplex hoovering up yet another terabyte of your data trail or I wouldn't have touched it.

Then it started to deprecate the useful part, gain a GUI, and morph into a second-rate widget engine. By the last couple of versions I came across it was a mostly useless, very second rate copy of Konfabulator (later Yahoo Widgets). It no longer had any local document and web indexing.

I recently did a project that used the create-react-app CLI, and felt a bit anxious. I know the setup that create-react-app creates, but I still prefer to write this all myself.

Most, if not every project I do, I start from scratch, and build the pipeline when I have a need for it. It also forces me to understand the way my app will be build.
I've met a lot of developers who only use these pre-build setups, or only use bootstrapped templates that they don't even know what they do, and personally, that scares me.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you eject, all of those files and NPM dependencies are just dumped into your main package, even if you didn't need that configuration? E.g., let's say CRA supports SCSS files. You eject and now you have a webpack config that can handle SCSS files, but your project doesn't use them. Now you have white noise. A really small, and potentially trivial example, but that sort of buildup is death by a thousand cuts to a project. "What does this line do?" "Do we need it?" future engineers will ponder.

Also, it'd add more substance to the discussion, but I really am curious how many people eject. Is it, the minute it (CRA) can't do what you need, you have to eject? Or it becomes exceptionally difficult to interface with a tool that just abstracts away more tools? It's possible those abstractions might not give you the full level of customization would could potentially need, if project requirements shift.

CRACO seems like an admission that CRA, on its own, could be somewhat half baked. The ability to want to override some things without fully ejecting seems like an obviously wanted feature of a toolkit.
Bayesian statistics is sometimes called subjectivist statistics. Probability in Bayesian statistics reflects your degree of belief in some potential outcome.

If you conduct an experiment, you use Bayes’ theorem to update your degree of belief, which is now conditional on the outcome of your experiment.

By quantifying your degree of belief in a prior, you give yourself some starting point (rather than just assuming 0 probability), even if that prior is only an educated guess and not some well researched position. This can be good because you might not have done the research yet.
You could maybe charge better rates for photogrammetry of real world objects to make 3d models?

While we are at it - is there anything like plan 9’a factotum for Linux or OpenBSD? I’ve been reading about plan9’s security model over the last week, and I like it, but can’t find a modern isable port to an os I use.

Oauth/oauth2 are sort of a web equivalent but not really, first because they are web, and 2nd because they aren’t useful for things like pop3 in the same way that factotum is.

(And it would be really great if factotum would list permissions for apps that would support that thing, but... you can’t win them all)
