A better or hopeful projection is that "creative" things will split into casually consumed which is largely automated and more active/deeply experienced content which will be human made or directed. The first already exists in formulaic content generated by humans with little consideration for a cohesive story without self contradiction.

I don't know which way things will go. Will newer and later generations be accustomed to and accept lower fidelity art? the uncanny valley be bridged from both sides? Or will there be attention being drawn to what is 'real' vs 'synthetic'. Good art is pain. Labelling these things distinctly will probably reveal that I consume some 'real', annoyed by some 'synthetic' while enjoying as much. This will get challenging as machine generated can seem more 'real' than much human made content: 'real' is/was a subset of human made, machine made is/was a subset of 'synthetic'.

This line of reasoning leads me to believe that premium content will be interactive. This means that the content has to either have a human connection or be closer and closer to passing a Turing test. The current examples of machine made static content wont cut it.
Can I ask why do you wish it was bigger? By it being bigger would that make it a better offerring for you?
That’s the classic line between a performer alone and a songwriter.
The other part of it is Softbank will be rescued from their idiotic and incredibly wasteful investments. They bought so much crap and had too much money and they still managed to buy a few valuable things, probably by accident. It's slightly infuriating. At least I'm happy to see amd succeeding by actual intelligent engineering.
Most of an album being bad as a stereotype I believe was just from actual bad artists when basically anyone could get a deal and possibly go platinum from a single song. Good artists typically had good albums
I feel pretty dumb, sure enough it's right there. Pardon my error I glanced right past that. Positioning the text with the password field would likely help, and/or include all rules in the error message, not just the one that's violated.
It's yet another attempt to create dependencies. Good luck to those who drink the Flavor Aid when you're locked in and you can't get out.
If overcrowding is the problem, and you're looking at wealth, then you'd want to encourage the poor masses (the 99%) to leave, not the tiny population of the 1%.
That isn't what would happen. Lack of funding is not the reason we don't have those things now.
A person with an income of a million dollars is a lot richer than a mere millionaire.

I see; I didn't know that. I was using the quotes from the parent comment; I don't know enough about the UK system to know which are considered 'top' -- which I'm guessing is as subjective and rancorous a discussion as it is here -- to be confident in my own judgment beyond the parent-cited Oxbridge.
But it would also probably drive more sales and probably attract more artists.

In california is more similar to Europe. There state health care, lower college tuition etc. Plus infrastructure to create tech jobs.

I doubt the US as a monolith could pull those things off, the bigger the organization the worse it usually is at execution.

We don't use containers, we use V8 isolates. V8 is limited to executing JavaScript and WebAssembly, though many other languages can be compiled/transpiled to one of those two. But, we don't run native Linux binaries.

Also, the i740 drivers were really bad. I had one and I remember all kind of bug and graphical glitchs on games that worked fine on a GeFoce 2 MX that I got latter.
Faster, smaller releases, compared to one new album every few years do not necessarily need to compromise on quality.

It's rare that an album contains all gems.
You get streets without poop pretty much everywhere in the US, too; just not in San Francisco.

It's not a bad idea, the timing isn't right, I see GPT as being ~13-14 years ahead of its time. I'm pretty certain within our lifetime we will see an explosion of such tools, now with CSS and browser engines being significantly less intelligent than their future counterparts, GPT-3 WILL/ might just evolve into something substantial, hence the buzz
Depends on if you believe raising taxes will get you those things, or if the money will be squandered on inefficiency, large salaries for public servants, and corruption on your construction / maintenance contracts. So far, high taxes have worked out well for California. I've lived here the past 10 years and I'm looking around and not sure the money is well spent these days.
I didn't lack pleasure. I would play volleyball on the beach on Sundays with coworkers, I would borrow books from the library, I would go to parks and gardens. There was always OTA TV as well.

People love to hate on inheritance and suggest that there are no cases where its use is warranted. But inheritance absolutely is used, and successfully, in many frameworks. For example GUI frameworks [1] [2] or server-side web frameworks [3]. People have been writing code in frameworks like this for ages and as far as I can see they worked well.

Including key use cases such as being able to use the provided components "out of the box" and also being able to customize them, i.e. "like this component, but with these differences".

I moved to California 25 years ago, and for the past 10 have become increasingly motivated to leave; due to not only tax policy, but overall politics. I'm not in the 0.5% they're targeting, but experience teaches me what comes next. The idea that it would be retroactive is very offensive. I'm 95% ready to move as-is; this kind of policy move would push it too 100 immediately.
> In your view, what distinguishes the former from the latter?

Hard to give a generic answer.

Basically, anything that makes me say "yeah there's no youtube tutorial for that, no public github repo you could copy ideas from, and you had to have solved a lot of difficult gritty problems in creative ways to get it to work".

For that reason, A lot of the most impressive projects I've seen demonstrates the potential of a new tech stack. Demonstrations of promise can be either really cool demos or else pieces of infrastructure that lower the barrier to entry/iteration time/etc.

Back when 3D printing and laser sintering where new technologies, here are examples of cool projects around that emerging stack:

* digging into the firmware and/or hacking around the firmware to fix some limitation of the machine. This is probably not relevant anymore, but was when 3D printers were still new and had annoying bugs.

* A domain-specific CAD-like tool that did a bunch of "physically possible" checks for certain types of objects by using numerical analysis to do a bunch of ad hoc checks. Fantastic project because you can look at it and say "if you took two years and did this in a more systematic way it'd be a great product"

* auto-generated statues/art

* etc.

NB: that would be a bit less impressive these days, because 3D printing is now mainstream and a lot of these projects can be done via copy-pasta development from github repos, or even by following a youtube tutorial.

What is your primary skillset, and what's an emerging capability in that space? How can you use software to either demonstrate the promise of that capability or else build useful infrastructure that could make that capability easier to access?

NB: this is mostly for undergrad and maybe non-thesis masters projects. If you're in a thesis masters program or phd program, focus on doing science. Pick a good advisor and listen.
> I think a max 3.5% decrease in income

It's not a 3.5% decrease in income. It's a 3.5% decrease in income over $5,000,000. The 3.5% rate does not apply to the first five million dollars, only the money after the first five million.
Yes, exactly. The notion that there's clear evidence that breaking up firms unlocks value is simply not true. What is true is that not all firms are well-run and when you change the corporate structure or management style you sometimes make a huge improvement. But it's certainly not universally true.
Just speaking for my own band: we have had tens of thousands of streams on Spotify, yet we have made over 4x more revenue from music sales on BandCamp than we have on all streaming services combined.
Driving up prices such that a minority population can afford it is a solution to overcrowding -- not a cause of it. In fact, its the natural market solution to overcrowding: demand exceeding supply..
At this point, do Apple and Qualcomm even depend on ARM's new designs? In the same way that AMD branched from Intel but are still mostly compatible, can the same thing happen in mobile chipsets?
France's top marginal rate is 45%.
I don't know why you're assuming they didn't do this.
Maybe it’s just me but that line sounds kind of sinister anyway.

Like the opening line of a racketeer trying to extract protection money.
> For customer-vendor relationships, the field is more even.

I disagree. If a company screws a million people out of $10, it's not at all worth the trouble of arbitration for the individuals. That's where class actions shine.
I worry this is really going to mess up astronomy. Lots of the pictures we see of space are long exposure. Even now astronomers are having a hard time of doing a long term exposure and then it getting washed out by a bright close orbiting device.

I'm almost sure he knows all of that about creativity and art, and simply does not care. He has instead decided that he is going to try to commodify music, and this is the result. Factory-farmed music benefits the distributors over the artists, after all, because it's reliable.

Enfilade Theory (2005)
SETL – The Set Programming Language (2010)
Intel is booming financially. Things have never been better for them in that respect. They have every opportunity to fix their mess.

So was RIM in 2010. Profits are a trailing indicator. The PC market is really small compared to the mobile market and declining. While Apple only has 10% of the overall market, it has a much higher percentage of high end personal computers and Intel is about to lose Apple as a customer.

PCs also are having longer refresh cycles. What does “recovery” look like? PC sells going up? That’s not going to happen.

They still have the server market while that is probably growing, Amazon is pushing its own ARM processors hard and MS and Google can’t be too far behind.
OOP has served me well. It is a powerful concept. Problem is that people can misuse and abuse things.
That's actually how it should be. I think you should aim for 4 to 5 breaths per minute, I don't remember the exact number.

The technique is described by Kelly McGonigal in "The Willpower Instict" as being the only scientifically proven "quick hack" to make your brain relax and focus.
The onion anti-pattern is Separation of Concerns taken as mythology, not practicality.

A reasonable way to OOP is: 1. Understand your domain and work hard to match its structures. 2. Delegate and separate where there's an unquestionable benefit, not for the sake of it. 3. Likewise for inheritance hierarchies. 4. Don't create entities unnecessarily.

Every single decision should have a clear practical rationale. SOLID on its own is not a rationale - it's a guide, but to use it you need to understand what a concern is from the domain POV, not from the code POV.
This is basically Tool, as someone else pointed out in this thread, but it’s not a reliable or sustainable model for 99.9999% of artists.
Things I Learned from Zero KM to Running a Half Marathon
Twitter banning prominent far right users forces them to mass migrate to parler which ultimately makes parler less attractive to the wider community.

On the other hand parler might only be popular because twitter started banning these people in the first place.
For those saying people will leave, I'll note that I first heard that going on 40 years ago in a Wall Street Journal article that talked about how California's high tax rates were driving people to Nevada (now, why I remember that...?) I'm sure that the WSJ wasn't lying, and some former CA residents did, indeed, move to less taxed states. I've heard the same trope repeatedly in the years since. I'll note that the complaint most folks have with CA these days is the cost of housing, indicating that taxation didn't drive everyone away.
The problem with any temporary tax to pay for current hardships is that it'll never be ended.

I think a tax to help with the pandemic makes sense. But then again, it seems the pandemic should've been over long ago if the government had done the right things. The virus only lasts 3 weeks. Lock everyone up for 4 weeks and we would've been back to work 3-4 months ago.

I don't expect they'll spend the money carefully.
You did demonstrate that, and with all the coherency of an anti-vax flat earther. And just when I thought my opinion of Google couldn't go lower....

ARM was originally Acorn RISC Machine. (I had an ARM desktop in 1988.) ARM was spun off as a separate company when Apple joined in, with a 43% stake. I imagine that when they sold it, they kept a perpetual license. [1]

So let's say I've decided to sit down and write a digital audio workstation. I've got to pick at least one programming language and at least one general programming style. Let's say I pick C++ and (somewhat by implication) a generally OOP style.

Someone comes along and says "oh, you could do this much better with Haskell and functional programming".

How can you argue that the comparison involves an "X and Y" that are not designed to solve the same problem? Advocates for languages and programming styles are generally doing so on the basis that there is a broad class of software development problems/projects that will benefit from the use of their preferred "X and Y".

Sure, there are some DSLs that are clearly not intended to be compared with (say) C++. And there are some overall programming styles that clearly suite certain kinds of software much more than others (e.g. the absence of an event loop somewhat changes everything, as does high level distributed parallelism).

But OOP isn't an example of such a thing.
That’s called dumping.

We have laws against that in the US, but in practice they are very very slow to enforce them.
A lot of creative endeavors run on this timeline. It's just a shorter cycle and it's not new.
They definitely could due to them having so much cash, and it is a money pit, but high risk, high reward.

Seems to me like all these companies with huge cash flow and cash piles like MS/FB/Google/Samsung don’t want to invest in creating a high quality device people can trust, they don’t want to create a network of retail stores people can go to get help. They have their easy money collecting rent on software (Microsoft) or advertising. So be it if they don’t want to risk their cash.
What’s especially funny about your example is Hemingway wrote for periodicals as a day job for a long time, and so he kept that kind of schedule.

Except some of his books came about because he didn’t keep to that schedule, and we don’t usually talk about Hemingway for his articles in the Toronto Star.
If California really wanted to do something sensible with taxes, revisiting Proposition 13 would be a great place to start.

I was always been annoyed whenever an editor other than vi opened in a console/terminal. Recently I've been learning an alternative keyboard layout which has gone well--except that my vi muscle memory is completely broken. I think I'll appreciate this now and accept it gladly even when my new vi memories are formed.
That's only the 1m - 2m segment, not the 2m+. Also, the last steep hike was 7 years ago. Many people will see the writing on the wall that taxes in CA are going to squeeze most of their marginal income.
What does it matter whether they have blue pigment or not? If nearly every person looks at it with their own eyes and say, "That is definitely blue" then it is blue. I don't care why or how it is blue. Anything else is just pedantry.
That's assuming that they won't coming back begging once they realize that they need Google much more than Google needs them. Ad revenue from news sites from Australia is a slice of a slice for Google. For the news company, it's probably 90% of their traffic.
Self Esteem (2013)
That’s objectively untrue, because in the music industry today, everybody is doing this.
I’ve found my UHK’s (three of them) to be great but prone to a few problems:

1) the rubber legs tend to fall out and go missing
2) they’re very susceptible to static electricity shocks on the exposed metal parts
3) the usb cable connector is fragile and I’d you move much, it can get damaged inside the keyboard requiring you open it up to fix. I wish they had used usb-c and put it in a better/easier location.
Apple very much does not and is reported to have a perpetual license to the ISA. Apple will most likely be fine even in the worst case scenario.

Qualcomm however has been rebranded/tweaked (which is unclear) ARM standard CPU core designs since 2017. They very much depend on ARM doing a lot of heavy lifting.
It’s not tho! It means tighter release cycles which means a tighter feedback loop which means bands can find their sound faster and grow their backing faster.
Yes. One giant extorting another giant.
To my knowledge, "Apple Silicon" or what ever you want to call it is an ARM64 ISA, with Apple extensions

Third parties have been able to get IOS running in an emulator for security research and Android(!) has even been ported to the IOS devices that contain the "Checkrain" Boot ROM exploit (though with things like GPU, Wi-Fi etc in varying states of completion)
I don’t think the previous poster is suggesting FB build a phone but rather than FB not monetize its users via ads and instead monetize them by providing value they will pay for.
To be more correct, it’s a 7% decrease in income over $5,000,000 (if the total tax rate on that income was 50% before and went to 53.5%, the amount remaining dropped by 7%).

I think this point is under-appreciated. As the top federal tax rate has dropped over the decades, each additional percentage point drop has given less proportional value to top-rate-payers, while costing proportionally more of remaining federal revenue. In that sense, the lower the tax rate already is, the more expensive a tax cut is to the government. The higher the tax rate already is, the more expensive a tax increase is to taxpayers.

This is why tax cuts under Bush and Trump blew up the federal budget - tax rates were already pretty low, so quite deep cuts to revenue were required to deliver any notable benefit to high-rate taxpayers. It’s hard to make rich people much richer by cutting taxes when they are already keeping most of their income. In the case of the Trump tax cut, rates were already so low it required raising taxes on some to cut for others.

On the other hand, you can go back and find times when after-tax income of top rate payers doubled because the top rate dropped from eg. 91% to 77%, which delivered a lot of relative value to those taxpayers while fitting more easily into the federal budget (although as always, it’s probably more complicated as tax bills make changes to deductions when they change rates).
And how would it know your breathing rate?
That's an absurd standard. People successfully sue for fraud all the time, not just against the person that first invented fraud.

If you'd like to learn more about the case for reparations for chattel slavery in the US I can pull up some resources.

Its a very good read. The family is lauded as heroic for their meteoric rise. The amount of cheating and bribing that they did to get there doesn't get that much attention. And to be clear, in a system where the laws are selectively applied, that might be the only path to business success, and they were able to exploit it to the max.
People in this thread discuss what Nvidia would do with ARM after they buy it, but I'm honestly not even sure if anyone even could buy ARM to be honest. The article barely even mentions the anti-competitive nightmare that it would probably become, and if Nvidia agreed to let everyone else keep buying licenses and designs as it is now, then you have to argue is there any reason for them to buy ARM at all?

Fair enough. But I don't think quoting this for logging in the tracing sense is wrong here. He does acknowledge that trace logs are a degenerative form of logs from the perspective of log processing. The only difference being in the semantics of human readable text v/s binary logs.
