From my perspective, the only way to get there is if AI practitioners make a paradigm shift towards encoding understanding rather than making classifier systems trained with massive data sets. The classification approach has a very real asymptotic limit on what can be achieved. You can train NN's using large data sets on some domains but not all domains. Just think about what a dog can do, even just a puppy. We are nowhere near to that. Not even close. This is because our AI classifies without understanding.

I have books on AI that are thirty years old. I think I can say they cover somewhere between 80% and 90% (if not more) of what AI is today. The difference is computing that is thousands, millions, of times faster, massive amounts of storage, etc. In other words, one could very well argue we haven't done much in 30 years other than build faster computers.

It's important to note that run-time tradeoffs were made in the interest of fast compilation speed. When it comes to optimizing code emitted from D source, it's important to leverage the alternate implementations from GCC or the LLVM-based LDC...which don't sport nearly as fast compiles as DMD, the reference D compiler.

If you’re providing a service like Rollbar, Bugsnag, Optimizely, etc which are scripts embedded on customer pages, with XHR api requests, it is sometimes necessary for the client to connect via http if you need to support certain IE versions.

For example; there are certain versions of IE that will throw an insecure content warning if you load https scripts within a http page.

And of course, many older clients don’t (and never will) support newer versions of TLS.

>libertarians love F.A. Hayek and Milton Friedman

Well that's where you went wrong already. Surely most libertarians respect these guys, but that's about as far as you can take it. Some do love them, I suppose. To others they're thoroughly misguided in some of their conclusions, which are seen as much to statist-socialist in nature. See e.g. [1] for a libertarian critique of Hayek.

I'm not attuned to biology, and the article wasn't clear to me on the implications of this. Could someone comment - what does this mean? On the one hand, it seems as if an increase in phytoplankton can process more carbon into sugars, increasing the food supply at the lowest levels (and taking a small bite out of the global carbon footprint). On the other hand, such production usually comes at a cost, e.g., reducing the free oxygen supply in the waters. Experience tells me that the costs almost always outweigh the benefits. Can someone chime in? Thanks!
Many SDEs I know spend years working on mathematics (eg, implementing economic models) — and the job of being an SDE is being an applied type theorist.

Calling the European Economic Area a single market is also a stretch. Sure from a regulatory point of view it is, but practically it’s not. Cultural and language differences between countries are often a larger barrier to your product than tariffs and legal hurdles.

I think the problem as posed, and the vocabulary being banished, are unique to the US, though of course racism and discrimination are not.

If I think of other major racial or ethnic conflicts of the recent times (Israel/Palestine, Rohingya in Asia, Balkan genocides, Hutu vs Tutsi, antisemitism, tensions between “original” and “migrant” societies in Europe), none of them are covered by the language being banished here.

Also, the immediate searching for racial undertones in any phrase seems to be a purely American thing.
We had to issue an internal notice to our 16" recipients after the first cases started coming in a few months ago. The second most common damage is pressure from pinching the screen to the bottom case during a one-handed pickup. A good squeeze walking between meetings is enough to crack it.

The latest MBPs are exceedingly fragile, can't run two displays from separate TB controllers without throttling, and have had more DOA batteries than any series I've ever encountered to date. This isn't even getting into other models.

>While I wish that I had made more than just $7.5k in my first year doing indie development, I am more concerned about the lack of downloads and growth.

I'm surprised the author sees $7.5k as a low number. $7.5k in your first year as an indie developer is great! That's 3x what I made in my first year and even slightly higher than what I made in my second.[0] I'd estimate that $7.5k in the first year puts one in ~90th percentile or higher of revenue.

There's maybe survivorship and availability bias at play because you only hear about massively successful startups, but I think the vast majority of startups or solo software projects struggle to find revenue, especially with their first product.

The parent is not wrong, coming up on two decades in this industry(and much more to keeping before that), the number of times I've encountered a binary tree is near zero. Only thing close was BSP trees in some engines we've licensed. There are parts of CS that get heavily over emphasised and parts that are neglected but super important.

It's also been my experience that the hardware things you mention are not well understood by most developers(it's a level of abstraction that honestly they don't need to worry about unless you want the last bit of performance from a piece of hardware).

I concern myself with it in two cases: When they’re taking advantage of adults (and children) with gambling illnesses. Jim Sterling has a great video about this reality, and how it impacts people.

The second is when games are changed in an attempt to get more money. Anytime an XP boost is sold, it’s because the grind has been made intolerable. Anytime powerful characters/abilities/gear is sold, it’s because it’s been made harder or unreasonable (or impossible) to get through the game itself. When skins are sold, they’ve been removed as a natural reward from the game itself.

Games are being actively ruined by these money-making tactics.
Still doesn't make sense. It sounds like this is a "hack" to implement some functionality which exposes users' private data. What SHOULD happen is that vendors should expose better APIs which allow the password managers to do what they need to do without exposing the users' data.

For example, if the implemented functionality is attempting to make a "temporarily store password in clipboard" feature and implementing it by "reading from clipboard/writing to clipboard/restore clipboard contents after N seconds", there should instead be an atomic "store data in clipboard temporarily" feature.

I am about five months into burning time and money brainstorming for a solution to a problem. Our client insisted in having "the team" participate. Never mind that we knew exactly where to go and what to implement five months ago (experience matters).

We could have been a couple of iterations into a real solution by now (this is hardware+software) rather than being nowhere while everyone understands what they don't understand and finally understands that what we said five months ago was the correct path.

Rather than being critical, sometimes one needs to realize that people and organizations, at times, require going through a process before accepting reality or agreeing with a conclusion. I've seen this many times during my career, from simple problems to designs that are currently orbiting our planet.

It's unfortunate because it burns time, money and valuable human capital (people could be doing far more valuable things).
This, absolutely. The 'Rona shutdown inspired me to buy an old commercial espresso machine (1964 FAEMA E.61) and build out a little home coffee shop in the garage, where I learned to pull shots.

Ok, suppose the ward is 3 people (you, Alice, Bob) you're still operating on a hunch. Or Alice is overtly fascist, so you assume she voted that way .. but it's her overt political stance that you're directly operating on. If you're going to coerce/vilify her do you care that you could be wrong? Mathematically it's different, socially/operatively I'm not convinced it would change your actions in a significant way.
I think your and OP's perspectives are not exclusive:

A. Yes, as you say, taken from a distance and considering the whole development lifecycle from idea to shipping, "compile time isn't really that bad for rust when you consider what it actually does for you".

B. However, -during- development, you want compile speed, regardless of all the benefits. I don't know about you, but I have a hard time rationalizing "it's okay, rustc is doing many things" at that moment. I just want it to be faster, and as OP mentioned, I hope there's a future where companies / sponsors get to "hiring about 25 people" to crunch and improve things noticeably (and I will do more than hope, I already donate money to Ferrous Systems to improve rust-analyzer, and will donate if a "make rust faster" fund asks for it). Your argument sounds to me a bit like "who cares about making Python faster? It's just glue". To which I answer: maybe (though not always), but even then but I'll take faster glue anytime :) .

To sum up: rust being already awesome and being "fast given all the thing it does" doesn't mean it shouldn't be faster, and doesn't mean speaking about it is futile.
The big advantage of ham radios over FRS is repeaters, which greatly increase your ability to contact somebody in an emergency if you are hiking. Of course, this depends on a repeater being line of sight.
I remember going to the arcades with a friend who was so good at gaming that some of these places banned him. There was one that raised the difficult to what is best described as 'insane' just because of him.

We'd play a two-player game together, and at some point I let him play Street Fighter 2 or Mortal Combat while I shyly tried another game, in the safe knowledge that he was just a few arcades over.

I still vividly remember going by myself because he couldn't join. It was terrifying, but because I picked a mostly-single-player game and I recognized some of the patrons, I managed.

Unfortunately, because I was the only red-headed white guy there, there was a moment where as I was playing some guy thought it would be funny to put out his cigarette on my leg. That set me back for a bit.

But I still consider that arcade experience as the first time I learned to venture out into the scary world, and thankfully the bad experience didn't set me back too much. After that came the Counter-Strike sessions at internet cafés and, with a gap of probably half a decade or so, being a student and actually hanging out in bars with my peers without an arcade game mediating all of it.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. I imagine my next venture into the social world will probably involve table-top gaming or ping-pong. I'm just not that good at socializing without it being centered around something :).

But man, it's rare that I get a wave of nostalgia this big. I had another rare one recently when I watched the Digital Ocean "Final Fight: DF Retro revisits the arcade original, every port, and all sequels" review (https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2020-retro...). Final Fight and Cadillacs and Dinosaurs were the two arcade games that I remember being somehow significant (other than TMNT: Manhatten Project, but that was mostly because I at least knew of the TMNT. and to be fair it was an amazing game).

It in fact does not come up in security reviews, as you can see from the fact that virtually none of the US companies that have security teams† have signed zones. Route53, AWS's DNS service, doesn't even support DNSSEC. People are not getting dinged in audits for using AWS. I've been doing security assessments since 1997 (and vulnerability research before that) and I have never seen DNSSEC made an issue in an audit report.

† actually, there are too many words in that sentence, and I should just say "none of the US companies".

There has always been a great support for strong labour laws, whether it was helping the labourers seems to be forgotten.

It was more of a tool for bureaucracy to interfere in the private sector and of course bribery. For instance factories are required by law to provide spittoons, they need to be updated.

And the presence of these laws that force a large number of business from employing full time contracted employees. Perhaps upwards of 70% workers would benefit greatly with simplified and reasonable labour laws.

Even well meaning employers are hindered from providing proper contracts in the past.

The Harper's letter was so vague, wishy-washy and weak in it's "defence" of free speech, it predictably gave ammo, courage and free range to people who must otherwise be feeling very worried that their 1984-style antics are being increasingly called out by the mainstream.

They suspect that their opponents are still weak from fear of cancellation, and it shows here in this response, which is a good and confident counter-punch.

Incidentally, a footnote demonstrates the claim they are arguing against - people (left, right, whatever) should not be afraid of arguing in a civil and constructive way, so why are they suggesting that is not happening?

Many signatories on our list noted their institutional affiliation but not their name, fearful of professional retaliation. It is a sad fact, and in part why we wrote the letter.

I simply disagree that the group which coins a term gets to control its usage or its colloquial definition. That's not a reflection of my preference, it's just my own observation of reality. In reality, words mean whatever the recipient thinks it means. In practice, that means the assumptions of the median person overrule any formal definition.
Start by looking at the breakdown of your costs in the cost analyzer. Look for the categories of your biggest spend. Is it storage? EC2? Something else? For storage; see if you can clean up things you don't need anymore. See if you can move infrequently used data into long-term, cheap storage (but beware retrieval costs!). For EC2, consider changing node types to cheaper ones. Newer classes are can be much better value for the money. Make sure you use spot instances where you can. Focus on the biggest expense first.

fwiw, I also got into radio for the same reason as you. A few years ago, on our trip to Isle Royale National Park, one of the other adult leaders had an emergency (broken foot; needing National Park Service rescue...) and we didn't have a ham radio. We did have a satellite communicator (Garmin inReach), so we weren't completely screwed. But from now on, I'd like to always have a ham radio (in addition to the inReach) on me for future trips.
