Vue is awesome. The encapsulation that comes from single file components is something I would love to have in React.
I wrote the parent comment to flesh out my own thoughts. As I wrote it, I kept wanting to write what you put in the last paragraph.

In reality, none of us work 8 hours a day, and if someone slacks off, we'll push the deadline and go home.

In real reality, I'm self-employed and none of this matters. I just found that it was something interesting to discuss.
Same here. For instance I have a server with 4TB of storage and use less than 1TB of that, it would be cool to be able to "lease" out a block of space to a company that would pay a few dollars a month. There would need to be speed minimums and such, but interesting idea.
Although a PSP flaw is very unlikely to harm an individual user, it puts the US and it's intellectual property at risk from foreign actors such as Russia or China. And many engineering firms do not have the resources of the NSA to protect against such threats.

Additionally, a PSP or Intel ME related hack involving a SCADA system would not be discovered until it's too late, with potentially extremely severe consequences. AMD is advertising the processor as being a security device that is intended to enhance system security. If such a SCADA hack involving the PSP was to result in loss of life for example, what would AMD's liability be in such circumstances, where the 'security device' itself has enabled the system to be hacked in the first place? Taking into account that the 'security device' cannot be disabled by the SCADA operator, so they have no choice to use it.

That is why I believe the PSP and ME should be removed completely. Should that not be possible it should be replaced with a processor that is transparent to its internal operation.

And it's always been possible if you have a developer account (and I might be wrong, because I quit mobile development to focus on cloud but I think you don't even need a paid developer account to build and load an app from source code anymore -- but I could be wrong).
And yet, it turns out that every single major terrorist group has had the US implicate in their origin and rise. Isn't it funny how that turns out?
The hope is always hard work will persevere, but there is certainly a gift to sales too. Something tells me you have that gift in spades.
What’s the backlash against vue 3?

No, I don’t see any irony here. Name one programming language/framework/tool that’s universally game-changing for every single developer. The reality is that technology doesn’t work that way.

The fact that detractors of Vue exist in no way means that Evan doesn’t care about users. It’s very clear that he spent years working on a problem hard enough to build a solid response to React, a project with so much more momentum and money initially.
This is a great perspective. I would at a minimum batch up reading emails so one can get some deep work done. Maybe twice a day is ok for reading emails in general. Depending on the situation it could be more or less. Reading Deep Work by Cal Newport can help figure that out.
I have pretty sharp productivity/energy/focus fluctuations and often achieve more by waiting for the “inspiration” (so to speak) to come and do tasks quickly than by slogging through low times. But they’re pretty sharp: sometimes something might take me two hours at low tide and ten minutes at high tide.

Then there’s the issue of what to do at low tide.

I’ve tried countless times to adhere to Pomodoro or Jocko Willink-type mindsets that willpower is fickle while discipline equals freedom. But the results don’t seem to be there.

In general what you’re looking for just doesn’t exist. In niche cases it might, and your best bet would be government / military / academic research labs. Those jobs pay comparatively worse but usually have much better work/life balance & job security and enable you to focus on specializations.

In industry, you just won’t find this. Statistics is a small domain specialist component of a much larger software ecosystem. You don’t require advanced statistics, you just might want to try it or derive a special benefit from it, and none of that will be worth it unless it efficiently connects to the regular software development life cycle, architecture patterns, testing, and maintenance processes that the larger system requires.

Someone who can do “a little software development” would be a liability in that scenario, no matter what their other domain specializations are.

That’s why you’ll find most data scientists and ML engineers professionally are highly skilled at software engineering. They approach statistical modeling tasks from the point of view of standard software development life cycle tasks where the components just happen to involve statistical models or techniques.
Except race is not directly affected by well known and mostly well described hormones during and after development.

And furthermore, that has a big effect size, though we do not know how big exactly as the experiments to do find out are considered by many to be inhumane (on animals) or are even outright human experimentation.

If you had a paper linking say melanin to immune system based on race, that's perfectly valid.
There are known racial differences in drug metabolism and some signaling molecules with decent effect size as well.

None of this implies valuation or judgement. Without that, it's a generic difference plain and simple.

It's referring to Project Mainline.

Just as Project Treble separated out the low level device drivers (CPU, modem, camera, etc.) provided by the hardware manufacturers from the OS itself and allowed for monthly Security Updates that didn't require an entire OS update, Project Mainline is separating out almost everything in user space from the lower level parts of the OS so that the former can be updated directly from Google Play rather than from that monthly Security Update.

If you go to Settings->Security, you'll see both "Security update" and "Google Play system update" as two separate entries and corresponding dates, reflecting that.

Edited to add: Project mainline was originally released in Android 10 and there were 8 modules that could be updated via Google Play, Android 11 expanded that by adding 12 more modules for a total of 20.
>I think if the App Store is such a tremendous value, why don‘t you ask users to pay for access to that App Store directly. Let‘s see how valuable everybody thinks the App Store is when they actually have to pay an access fee directly to Apple.

Right. If the problem is that people are insufficiently appreciative of having access 'for free' and should therefore leave complaints unstated and unaddressed, Apple can fix that by imposing a fee, so they can no longer use "for free" as something to hold against app-store users to short-circuit complaints.
Maybe? Do you get a weird feeling in your right elbow when you apply cold water to it?
I agree completely. All I need are manual stereo controls and a nice spot in the middle of the dash to mount my phone without blocking air vents or windshield.
Not exactly, GPT-3 uses a variant of BPE [1], so one token can correspond to a character, an entire word or more, or anything in between. The paper [2] says a token corresponds to 0.7 words on average.

Samsung still does it, but they are a third party thing, support is not native. Some apps just don't work well as a window.

Such a thing implies you have to have a capable monitor and a bluetooth mice/kbd. Adoption will take significant time, but it will come either from current OSes or a newcomer. Remember how Nokia was the definition of reality and Apple came with their smartphone and turned the industry around overnight? Same thing will happen once someone introduces a true universal and responsive device that can seamlessly adapt to all kinds of use cases. It's just a question of when.
Having disposed of a PowerMac G3 running System 9 this week, this strikes a chord with me. I'm already regretting it.

Despite the age and 'underpoweredness' of it, it was still quicker, still more responsive, and still subjectively nicer to use than anything modern.
Are you just disregarding the mortgage payment?
I like fastmail, but the Australian Government has anti-encryption laws that are just a dealbreaker.

Australian companies (of which Fastmail is one) can be forced to handover user data silently[1].

"At its core, the legislation allows law enforcement agencies to compel companies to hand over user information, even if it’s protected by end-to-end encryption. If companies do not have the ability to intercept encrypted information, they can be forced to build tools to do so."

So fastmail can be compelled to hand over user data[2], and if that data is encrypted, can be compelled to build tools to subvert that security (this is a shame because Fastmail itself is anti that bill).

Exactly, except for Fortnite (very popular ) and other apps tha tApple don't like(Hey,Wordpress) or apps that US does not like ,and the apps that indie developers can't afford to publish(small games that have Win,Mac,Linux and Android version) , and maybe GPL(maybe it changed) apps, but except all those apps consumers can get all the apps they want.

But can you write me a logical phrase about what should happen if a judge declares that Apple can continue locking the phones because there is a duopoly and the next day Google does the exact same thing since now is 100% legal.

> If you want anything more than a static site, you‘ll need JavaScript.

Who doesn't want static sites? I certainly do. They're faster and easier to use. I've never heard a user say "I wish my back button didn't work and the page rendered wonky so that buttons move as I try to click them".

It's web developers that push to turn simple HTML documents into "applications".
Come on, even the caniuse page you linked says `position:sticky` is supported by 94.33% of browser. For that ~5% left (very old browser versions or specific cases like Opera Mini, most likely even less real cases due to bot noise in statistics) there is a thing called "Graceful Degradation". If you do things right your page won't break at all if that CSS property is not supported. Your header will just be positioned fixed or even static.

So, really, no huge (or small) JavaScript file needed at all in this case. Like most other bloat in web dev, that's just laziness that accumulates.

As someone else said, it's not a security barrier between the ARM core and the radio hardware bits... It's more a tool for remapping stuff to make system design easier, and as a way of protecting against evil hardware outside the SoC.

I believe it can prevent the ARM core tampering with private radio hardware memory, but not the other way round.
I didn't think about that. That's depressing.

Amazing that we have an industry whose biggest component is keeping out fraud in the industry. Imagine pitching that to a VC.
I moved from classic Vim, quick and snappy, to VSCode, which behaves exactly like a "bloated web-app" and often is so slow I can feel as it's catching up to my typing. It's a trade-off.

With VSCode, I got an editor which mostly just works. Which is maintained actively, major bugs fixed, which doesn't require me to maintain and version it's configuration, experimenting with different options and plugin combinations. Which has much lower learning threshold on plugin development, and a much friendlier development environment - JS for both the editor and plugins is just so much more convenient than VimScript and C.

Yes, Vim is much faster and more minimalistic, and after learning it, I install vim-emulation plugins into every editor I use (including VSCode). But being fast is not the only thing an editor can be.

If I can add something, I would maybe rebrand the "toys from trash" to "low tech toys" or something similar, that does not have the negative context of "trash". That's just my opinion.

> It's just a question of when.

I’m a lot more sceptical. I’m a tech nerd through and through and I can’t really see why I’d want a truly responsive device like that. The things I do on both phone and computer (email, messaging, maps, etc) are on the cloud so it’s easy to switch devices. The stuff that’s more difficult to move (my coding setup) isn’t something I ever use on mobile. I can see the financial argument in favour of it but a laptop style case with monitor, keyboard and trackpad probably wouldn’t ever be that much cheaper than a Chromebook or the like.
> backlash against Vue 3

What backlash against Vue 3? I know that there were very passionate discussions about several different RFCs that eventually lead to the current Composition API. But as far as I can tell, the current Composition API is very well accepted in the community. Also, the Composition API is an addition and does not replace the API of Vue 2.

So do you refer to the controversies about older RFCs? Because I can't see any other backlash. BTW, having discussions in an RFC is a good thing as it helps getting to a better overall solution.

How is Svelte related to Vue in general or Vue 3 specifically? Svelte 1.0 was released in 2016 and I can't really see any irony here at all.

- First it's not bloomberg, but blog spam

- Second, what's this quackery of "Utopia"? It looks super shady...
Doesn't seem extremely limited at all:

- Exceptions, RTTI, thread_local, Statically constructed object all require runtime support and are problematic in a kernel so it is not surprising
- Virtual inheritance: almost litterally nobody uses it.
- initializer lists require static storage which is also problematic in a kernel
- operator overloading and trailing return types are a stylistic choice, but at the end of the day they are a tiny bit of C++

Things that are allowed: actual OO classes inheritance (including multiple inheritance), virtual functions, RAII, templates (no restrictions at all), lambdas, all the recent goodies. I.e. all the things that make C++, well, C++.

So it is way less restricted than other guidelines I have seen for well known C++ projects.

What's funny is the original Vice article was very condemnatory of Amazon and AWS data and business practices. And then Amazon in response metaphorically requested ... wait for it ... that the author move a comma.

> Car infotainment systems these days should be little more than a largely dumb interface to my smart phone so that for the 10-20 years I own the car, I get regular updates on its utility as my smart phone and its apps improve.

That doesn't align with car makers incentives and business plans. Right now, all the talk is about mobility services (which don't make a profit for anyone currently) and chasing Tesla. They need something to replace spare parts and servicing, which is where all the profit is. With COVID, the EU commission fines on CO2, and the beginnings of EVs taking over (=spare parts and servicing will be reduced to almost nothing), they need a future profit generator. Except that doesn't line up with what consumers want.
Your comment sounds very confused, can you elaborate? What do you mean “in the analytics case, but you mean in the monte carlo case?” I can’t parse that sentence as a response to the parent comment.

Further what do you mean by

> “ the blog never comes out and says "you have to do a brute force search to get the parameters for the likelihoods A ~ Beta(2,13) and B ~ Beta(3,11) for P(B > A) to have about the right value".”

What do you mean by “brute force search” here?
In the mid 2000s I had a job building html marketing emails (legal "spam" basically). The main targets were enterprise tech managers. I quickly found out that we could double the click rate on the emails by including a plain text version (Lotus Notes email client was still a thing and many tech people had it set to read only the plain text mime part of emails).

Clients were scepticall at first because they wanted to make sure that the user was seeing all the visual branding in the html+images. To convince them, I started using gamefaq style ASCII typography tricks to make a visual representation of the layout. It worked great.
In this particular case you don't have to choose between Monte Carlo and using a normal sum approximation. You can just do a non-stochastic numerical integration (e.g. simple Riemann integration or whatever other method you want to use), since it's only a double integral, and thus the dimensionality isn't so high that you need to resort to stochastic Monte Carlo.
GMS however, even though the code is closed, has an open interface. This allows projects such as MicroG and HMS to replicate the functionality of GMS almost to a T, and makes it in practice very possible to have a modern Android phone running a fully open OS and compatible with the vast majority of apps.

One of those safeguards is just having more poll observers.

Of course, most of the time in functioning democracies it's going to be a lot more boring than that -- in my personal experience you just say hi to your counterparts from other organizations and then watch in silence as everything runs smoothly according to the rules.

EDIT: it should without saying that observers not being allowed to bring weapons into polling places should be one of those rules!
Thanks!

- Regarding jams, failures, etc. These should be extremely rare, but in the event, each unit is designed to "disengage" if needed so it's just dumb weight, and modules adjacent to it will be designed to lift it. Then when the train is above ground, the unit can be swapped out for another one and repaired while the system keeps operating.
- Yup failsafe mechanisms will be built in as well.
- Yeah each unit has its own motor/generator. A power line will enter through the module's axle.
I think you mean Newton-Cotes quadrature, but be careful. “Newton’s method” will 100% of the time be taken to mean the Newton-Raphson root finding method instead, which is widely taught as “Newton’s method” (while in quadrature it’s always referred to as Newton-Cotes).

The article seems to condemn Sandvine for selling its hardware to Belarus. I feel like it's a bit unfair to them.

There is nothing wrong per se with DPI firewalls, it's a usual commodity for any company or government, and IMHO Sandvine can hardly be held responsible for that.

The transitive responsibility of Sandvine seems too far fetched in this case.
Oh please. No-one is naive about 'the power structure'.

Amazon is a vast company with a PR department that is responsible for making sure that the image of the company accords with the aims of its management.

If that's the definition of 'control the narrative about itself', then yes, it is reasonable for a company to want to do that.

The insinuation that some ill-defined-but-terrifying future retribution against the publisher (Vice, a substantial owner of which is the Walt Disney Company; so not exactly a tiny defenseless organization) will occur as the result of ignoring a suggested correction from a PR flack is a bit ridiculous.
