I do remember talking about routing CAN messages over wireless in automotive standards meetings about 20 years ago. You would need to do something like this if we wanted to increase traffic density by creating linked "road trains" of cars that would all brake together. There was also the feeling that California might require a wireless connection to be able to do continuous emissions monitoring.

Static sites are overrated for most cases. Often you still need a backend for editing with non-technical folks or just easier handling of media, etc so you're now running a server-side instance of some blog or CMS while adding a whole new detached frontend layer.

With things like Cloud Run that can run a container on-demand for every request, it's easier to just stick with regular Wordpress or Ghost server-side stacks.

I'm running a dual screen setup (laptop + 4k screen over DP) with fractional scaling on the laptop screen (150%). This works pretty well in Fedora 31, no blurred text.
AFAIK different scaling parameters on different screens are not supported by Xorg, so I'm pretty happy with Wayland.

I think it is a personal choice, I don't think either is right or wrong in this case. To be fair, my take on this would be telling them could be more trouble for you then it is beneficial to them, partially depending on the companies size. If the company reacts poorly to the news it could mean lots of frustration and/or headaches for you, and in that way I'd be selfish and just destroy the document and never mention it to minimize my distraction potential.
I do not think 10x means "churns out code" but rather "produces results". And by this metric, by golly, there are a couple 10x out there for sure.

I was not aware of symbolic regression at all, but I'm wondering now if it couldn't be replicated by some feature engineering or playing around with smth like the Box Cox transformation.

You could afterwards use some feature selection, regularization etc. to retain features that have explanatory power.

It wasn't clear to me why symbolic regression would be especially good for highly skewed datasets. Does anybody have an idea?
Yabai gives the basic i3 experience. It's not as polished, but it's pretty great once you figure out a good config.

i3 has the benefit of being in an OS that doesn't use a super key for everything.

For Yabai, I mapped caps as HYPER -- which is good for most combinations.

My problem is that my table isn't perfectly stable, so when I type, my mouse moves on its own by microscopic distances. When I'm in the middle of typing, the results range from mildly annoying to infuriating, depending on how a random application handles given input.

How to learn and master complex concepts
The best case scenario would be if no nukes worked, but everyone believed they did. Unfortunately getting there is essentially impossible. At the moment the US is responsible for most "stockpile stewardship" research, the fruits of which are ultimately disseminated to other nuclear powers. If we were to stop spending billions forging ahead in that area of research, it might make the world's nukes less viable. Since the US has the most by number, our relative advantage would still remain.

The controller for this one isn't the best and is picky about inputs (I can't get the original Apple HDMI adaptor to work well even at 30hz, so use DisplayPort instead), but it does well enough for the price.

I use 1:1 pixel ratio and a tiling manager to manage the screen 720p subdivisions (3x3 = 9 of these) and will have editors or documentation arranged vertically in 2-3 of these subdivisions, terminals in individual subdivisions, and screen shares or video in 2x2 spaces (1440p) depending on what I'm up to. I have configured hotkeys which place windows in predefined positions in the grid and gotten pretty quick with the muscle memory of them. I aggressively organize windows into spaces, and use the Apple track pad + gestures to move spaces, this acts as a stack of second monitors that I don't have to move my head to see (but can change attention to with similar speed).

32" at arms length seems to be just right in terms of not feeling like I have to turn my head to change my area of attention, and the pixel density isn't too hard on my eyes without any scaling, but both of these are just on the edge (I wish I had slightly larger UI elements, and slightly less FOV occupied) but with these being at direct odds with each other, this device (and a more expensive one with the same resolution and dimensions I purchased for home use before this one at this price point was released) occupies a sweet spot (for me personally).

Not sure why you're being downvoted. I agree, it would be nice to be able to pause/rewind/fast-forward/speed/slow animated GIFs. I don't want to encourage this abusive use of GIFs, but sometimes I want to control even short animated GIFs, to see individual frames or something. I have a plugin that disables autoplay, and stops animated GIFs from looping endlessly, but it'd be nice to pause and rewind.
Such a good read, thanks for sharing this page! (And the authors of course)

No, you are not the only one. The quest for the new shiny thing is stronger than ever today. New frameworks, new languages, silver bullets everywhere. Good decision making frameworks are in tremendous need in the technology world to help everyone understand the ramifications of the choices they're trying to make.
I see! That would make more sense, but I still think the inttypes.h macros are a sufficient solution. Implementers and standards influencing users probably aren't too keen on another formatting language when you can implement it as macros that only take another few characters to use.

printf2("int64: %d64", x);

for example isn't significantly shorter than

printf("int64: %" PRId64, x);

Perhaps it's easier to read, but when you have to support both, and you're more likely to run into the latter than the former anyway, I think it just adds cognitive overhead to have to consider which formatting language is being used.
There's several, just search. $300 is about the cheapest you'll find a 32" 4k though, don't expect much and it'll certainly be a TN panel with a slower refresh.

A false positive rate of 2 to 4 percent could be terrible if the real positive rate is much lower than that.

Say 1 in 1000 people are actually carrying the substance you're looking for - a false positive rate of just 1% would mean that for every person you identify correctly, you'll falsely identify about 10 others.
OK that's weird. I was wrong to dispute it, but I think the story has gone around and around on my radar so many times that I was confused as to which was the right story. Kind of an "eggs are bad" "eggs are good" depending on which decade you're talking about. Mea culpa!

Car companies aren't finding making an electric car hard at all.

Taycan is by most reviews the best EV car out there. And we have EVs from BMW, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes, Volvo, VW etc already being sold today in pretty sizeable numbers.

10x programmers do exist. But here's the thing: its not worth being a 10x programmer. Managers don't necessarily want them.

First of all, if you complete a project 10x faster than the expected time, managers will assume that they had overestimated the project, as opposed to recognizing that you're a 10x programmer. I have seen this time after time after time.

Secondly, if a manager does recognize that you're a 10x programmer then you will be seen as a risk: what happens if you leave the company? If the product was built by a team then that's a legit business. If the product was built by just 1 person then that's not a legit business as the business can suddenly collapse if that 1 person leaves.

Third, you make your co-workers look bad by raising the expectations bar. You will not win any popularity contests. You may make your manager look bad too, if your performance diminishes the value of the manager.

If you're indeed a highly capable programmer here's my advice: don't be a 10x programmer by doing 10x the quantity of work or completing projects in 1/10th the time. Instead be a 1.1x programmer, then expend your remaining energy helping your teammates grow, and broadening your influence. (So scale yourself horizontally instead of vertically.) This advice is often not easy to heed if you're introverted, and if you're extroverted you are already a manager instead of a programmer.
Why not? Wouldn't you be able to forward contact info from one group to another?
Europe is a whole damn continent, so no, it's not true. It's not true even for the entire EU. I happen to live in Croatia which is in EU, and I know first hand that in Romania and Bulgaria health system situation is even worse, as I spent some time there. You get urgent operations like if you're in car accident and you're brought into the ER, of course they'll not let you bleed out. But if you need, say, heart aortic valves replaced (happened to my mom), or anything else a bit more advanced, you end up on the waiting list, and unless you pull connections and give bribe that means months of waiting.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer, so given your tone I fully expect you to dismiss all of this because users can't handle any difficulty, but some options:

Make a web installer that works on any random PHP-enabled webspace. Millions have installed WordPress etc that way.

Provide a VM image ("appliance"), and/or an easy to run installer that completely sets up a fresh Ubuntu install, secures it, ... compare "turnkey Linux".

Provider-specific pathways: put an AMI on AWS store, provide an "run on Heroku" button, ..., although initial setup of those providers isn't entirely trivial.

Overall caveat: Non-technical users should only be using hosted or maintained platforms, so you either need to target something that provides it or provide it yourself as part of the product installation. No easy installer for a fresh system that then is left with bad defaults and no updates, if you target non-technical users that's your responsibility.

> getting full integration to work on their laptop ( sleep, screen brightness, etc. )

I managed to golf some tiny generic inline bash scripts that fit directly inside my i3 config for screen brightness and keyboard brightness using /sys/class with generic name matching and no hardcoded values. They do require an external sudoers entry for each /sys/class unfortunately but that's because they require root perms by default.

These have served me well across multiple desktops and laptops without needing to customization for each piece of hardware.

I can post if any interest...
Can confirm. Last week a PM was gushing to me it "only" took a week to implement a feature that was not much more than an extra if statement. This is not in a regulated industry either, just run of the mill web stuff.

This is really great! The tui is very intuitive and the auto-complete a great addition.

It even highlights keys and values differently: https://i.imgur.com/mrOMBUi.png

It also handles redis server weirdness as well by faithfully relaying error messages.

That is simply not true.

All of the manufacturers apart from say Toyota have made EV the number one priority for their companies. Mainly because of the impending EU regulations on emissions.

Porsche has the best EV car on the market. BMW sacked their CEO because of a lack of EV progress, Mercedes has most of their innovation going into the EQC series. There are stories everywhere on how the companies are rapidly shifting to EV.

Isn't the note there to explain why i3 differs from vi? Adding the historical reason why vi used hjkl doesn't seem to justify i3 differing. It's almost irrelevant.

Or do you think that not having arrows on "hjkl" is the justification of using "jkl;"?

Personally, I can't see a good reason for "jkl;". The rationale that those are the keys where the fingers rest has been brought up here, but here is my response:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22349868

The thing is that I believe the designers of ADM-3A made a good choice in putting the arrows on "hjkl" as opposed to "jkl;". It's much more ergonomic.
We pay for the highest level of support on Google Cloud and it isn't worth shit. I'd say it actually provides negative usefulness, as usually their support folks just waste our time and not do anything.

The Chinese New Year, Jan 17 through Feb 8, is also a period where less manufacturing activity normally occurs. Why I know this? I had to plan our inventory and sales logistics around this period every year for seven years. We would order production so that it would be completed and shipped to us prior to Chinese New Year, or start production immediately after. We never wanted production to occur across the three week down period.

I strongly suspect that large company logistics team, and certainly an expert like Tim Cook, already have this contingency in place. However, since CV has extended beyond the New Years time frame, those contingency plans will start to break down.
