I miss on this kind of design draft a literal diff to the language spec.

The go language spec is one of my favorite things about go. Is a learnxiny on steroids. In less than an hour, you fully understand the language.

I am curious to see how this functionality will change the spec. Will it double it in size?

In a lot of small ways, Gelman (and the Economist team) engage in more transparency, and self-critique about forecasting practices relative to the 538 team.

I don't mean to come off as a Nate Silver hater. My criticism is made with a lot of affection, and awareness of how much he discusses the role of uncertainty in his work. But the Economist team has made some legitimate critiques of some wacky tail behavior in the 538 model[1] which Nate Silver has basically dismissed without engaging, whereas the Economist team has written plenty critiquing their own model[2]. I mean this is Gelman's whole schtick about the scientific process: he thinks that errors are to be expected and should be transparently discussed and fixed and iteratively improved over time. That's partly why they've released all their code on Github, and Gelman has sort of poked at 538 for not doing the same with their code.

What's interesting about this design is that with one minor relaxation, the "type list in an interface" could become one of the other big things that Go is missing; namely, sum types:

> Interface types with type lists may only be used as constraints on type parameters. They may not be used as ordinary interface types. ...This restriction may be lifted in future language versions. An interface type with a type list may be useful as a form of sum type, albeit one that can have the value nil.

This reminded me of a certain creative "solution" to the lack of generics in Go: https://old.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/5penft/parallelizing_...
That sounds like such a pain to access, though. Better to just have it in 10 wallets of $100m, plus one wallet with a few mil that you use for actual transactions.
That reminds me of this story[1]. The author shared some code that was so bad, that the recipient of the code was kicked out of the country. Receiving bad code can have some extreme consequences.

My personal git isn't used by millions of people, as opposed to github.com that is used by millions of people in general.
> Well, by breaking it again, naturally. To connect to a raw IPv6 address, you wrap it in square brackets. To connect to 2607:f0d0:1002:51::4 directly, that’s http://[2607:f0d0:1002:51::4]/ Why is this a thing?!.

It's even sillier in Windows Explorer where UNC IPv6 paths are the IPv6 address "with the ':' characters replaced by '-' characters followed by the '.ipv6-literal.net' string": https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winnetwk/...

For example, I mount my NAS as "\\fd13-c001-7232-1-13--36.ipv6-literal.net"! https://i.imgur.com/waLJRFf.png
I understand the laws behind that, but personally still think there is a large gap between "we legally can't disclose the reason" and "we are telling every employee to just shut up and say nothing".

I would expect a reasonable middle ground of letting employees say "I'm sorry, but it's corporate policy and I can't disclose more information."

What does this have to do with a Presidential election?

> vote suppression

Dead people, illegal immigrants and other non-citizens, and people who've already voted shouldn't be able to vote. That the left opposes reasonable measures to prevent this, like voter ID laws, demonstrates clearly that they disagree.

And this "count every vote" mantra, even if restricted to the votes of citizens (meeting age, residency, and registration requirements), is still absurd. In my state, they print ballots in a half dozen different languages. I flatly disagree that someone who can't read and write English (especially the basic English used in election materials) should be voting. Our laws are written in English. Likewise, if you're too lazy to make the effort to vote and require a fraud-prone mail-in ballot, or if you're so cognitively impaired that you can't follow basic instructions and your ballot requires interpretation to divine intent, your vote shouldn't count.
It depends on your growing zone but 10 acres is typically suggested.

Not only that, but are you gonna transcode to multiple resolutions on the users computer and upload all of those? Not only wasting a ton of time, but also bandwidth? What if they're uploading from their phone, also wasting their battery.
To think if the whole community could do this you could have more sustainability and variety and setup local farmers markets to shop local-to-table. Granted in Hawaii you have finite land to work with, but remember engineering is hard at work to figure out vertical eco-friendly hydroponic farming to increase those yields per acre at the expense of up front investment in the infrastructure.

I want to emphasize the last bit though about “building an empire”. It depends on what your metric is. You can be rich and be broke. You can be poor but wealthy. The empire here would be in community and not in money. Giving back by selling your produce, locally, and helping the community. That, is satisfaction. On top of the satisfaction you have from growing your own food of course.
Did you mean "is perjury enforceable everywhere"? I bet the US government could get you extradited for something or other, if not, if it really wanted to. But I don't think they'd have much trouble getting you extradited (or at least punished for your country's version of perjury) for violating a law which you explicitly agreed to abide by...

They would be killed either way, to produce fur. That's like the entire reason for their miserable and agonizing lives.

The sad thing is not that they're being culled now due to COVID, but that we'll continue doing this generation after generation producing more suffering.
Kotlin for Interviews – Part 4: Iteration
I saw the lecture on youtube, later bought the book and read that in one go.

I do not think it changed my life that much but definately it changed me as a parent. I have a son who turned 13 this year. Someday he can thank Randy for the change in his father.( I used to be a strict disciplinarian and a stickler for academic performance during my own years)
Everyone loves a good story, however not everyone has the patience for them at work. Since management consulting often involves making up and telling stories it makes sense that they would select for that in candidates.
It depends on how you use it, but at least a couple of acres. Potatoes are quite efficient, and rabbits and chickens can pretty much live off left-overs and patches of land that are otherwise unused. That would be a rather boring existence, though.

3-4 acres should be more than enough for the basics for a _small_ family, if you accept to buy the more exotic items from a store, and that you will probably never grow fat.
I go looking for the price first in just about every SaaS I use. If it can't be transparent about the price then it's probably not the service for me.

The food. When it's small scale and the varieties aren't selected for industrial efficiency, many fruits and vegetables taste like they're from another world. Coming from another country, the biggest appeal is eating strawberries and blueberries that taste like the blueberries and strawberries I remember as a child and tomatoes and cucumbers that have actual flavor that can carry a salad without globs of "dressing." I think I've had a proper blueberry once in 20 years and only because it was some celebrity chef known for obsessing over his ingredients.

Thankfully, I have family members living out this dream so I don't have to do all the hard work myself :)

There's not anything I can personally do to help. But, I do hope you solve the situation somehow, in a way that leads to a good result for yourself. :)
It's kind of a 'how long is a piece of string' question. You could probably do it on 2-3 acres but you're going to be making sacrifices that you wouldn't need to if you had 10-20.

I have read his book "The Last Lecture" and I found it to be made up and over the top. The motivation he lists seem to be contrived and he comes off as pretty arrogant and narcissistic. Though I liked the part at the end where he discusses the motivation behind writing the book -- some sort of memory of him for his children.
For example, employers have little patience with candidates who didn’t pick the most prestigious possible college or job, but were swayed by other considerations.

I don't think this is true, at least in the tech industry. Based on my time involved in recruiting at Google and Facebook, the elite tech employers are quite happy to hire candidates who have an unusual resume, as long as something stands out that prevents their resume from being thrown out in the first place. For example, someone who worked at a low-status job for four years out of college, then worked at a hot startup for one year. Or someone with no college degree who spent time working in "low-status" tech roles but has one popular GitHub project.

You have to go through the standard "tech interview" grinder, but it's very possible to succeed at that without having a high-status resume. Indeed, the great benefit of having such an onerous interview process is that it provides an opportunity for people with unimpressive resumes to stand out as an impressive candidate.
Lots of competition, and you have to put in a _ton_ of work to get noticed. Most devs lose money on Apple's App Store I'm sure.

I used to work more randomly when I was starting, but I am now having strict routine with set working hours. That makes it easy to bill by man-days.

Decision is usually by customer, I am trying to go with having man-days as billable unit as much as possible, but it is not battle worth winning every time. At the end what customer want is having clear idea how much is project going cost and trust that quality would be (at least) good enough.
Github, via extension of its owner Microsoft, is owned by some of the most regressive, monopolistic, oligarchic/kleptocratic, big-finance forces on the planet - the likes of Blackrock, Berkshire, Gates, etc. It is very much in their interest to centralize and control open source/free software (free as in freedom), and they have a well established track record of doing just that, by any means necessary. To say it more poignantly: Microsoft is a direct driver of perverse wealth inequality, endless wars and centralisation of power which effectively destroys any resemblance of democracy everywhere. Behind the clean corporate facade, they are just another mafia. If you support this system - by hosting your code on Github and buying MS products - you are de-facto supporting this techno-dictatorship.

>This is a really confusing product for me.

1. Discrete GPU sells, Discrete = better than Integrated. ( Forget about the actual benchmark for the time being ) Especially true in market like China.

2. I would not be surprised if this was giving out for free with or for very little cost compared to just buying TigerLake. ( Or you know, normal price but with Intel Xe Max Marketing budget rebate )

3. The sole purpose is likely a Marketing exercise to address the world / market. We ( Intel ) now have a discrete GPU too. And they are good. ( You will always need to solve the Chicken and Egg problem with continue investment of GPU, revenue generation and demand for a product new to market segment)

4. Nearly 80% of PC sold are now Laptops. You need something to generate volume, view, exposures, Xe Max seems like well positioned.

5. You also need product volume to push developers to develop for their GPU / OneAPI. Just like Apple tells you e.g 60% of Active Devices, or 600M are already on iOS 14. Developer should plan their App upgrade with new API usage accordingly. Same with OneAPI and Intel Xe Max GPU. It is easier if you have a Total Addressable Market.

Q: So this is more or a marketing move than anything?

A: Possibly, Intel are exceptionally good at sales and marketing. Despite their Technological incompetence in the past years, I have to give them credit for that.
A study of 24 participants seems pretty flimsy.

It's a notice under the provisions of the DMCA, but it's not a "DMCA takedown".

What we call DMCA takedowns, coloquially, with the whole counter notification process etc, are notices submitted under Title II. That title deals with copyright infringement, not anti-circumvention.

That means treating such notices as a typical DMCA notice, as GitHub has done, is incorrect. GitHub may well choose to follow the takedown if it considers it valid and the repo infringing, but what they've done is treat it as a copyright takedown. And that is clearly, unambiguously wrong, as it goes against their own DMCA policy, linked from the youtube-dl repo's disabled notice, which says:

> The DMCA notice and takedown process should be used only for complaints about copyright infringement. Notices sent through our DMCA process must identify copyrighted work or works that are allegedly being infringed.

So yes, GitHub messed up here. That doesn't mean they shouldn't have taken down youtube-dl, but they way they went about doing it is wrong.

You'll notice that the EFF, in that article, never goes into the details of the takedown process that happened. They never said what GitHub did was proper. They are just talking about the anti-circumvention law in general.

I don’t see how wide margins are a fault. To me that’s just being honest about the uncertainty.

I also don’t think they hide this uncertainty. The model results I’ve seen on FiveThirtyEight always feature a distribution that shows the electoral margin could end up being anything in a wide –X to +Y range.
Go appears to be whatever the very small core team says.

It's always good to remind oneself, that most dictators in history came to power through legal means.

>The Windows is still a near monopoly (Mac at 8-10%, Linux at 1-3%) in the desktop globally. On mobile, they never had a stronghold.

right, Windows didn't lose their position because someone out-competed them in their area, but because a whole new category of device (smart phone) and a new category service (search) rose to prominence. (Also fears of legal problems tampered their normal behavior)
Not the OP either, but I'm not going to commit that I'm willing to pay before even trying the service, and I do pay for a bunch productivity tools (Notion, Forest, + others).

I agree that the "opt-out" is not great, but I would change it to just a warning "This is paid software, after the trial you will need to subscribe".
Those were different times, old man.
I keep seeing this and ... I used to have this problem in the beginning too, with the "chords of doom" (Meta + Ctrl + ...).

But what worked for me was:

(1) Remap Caps-Lock to Control: I do this mindlessly, automatically, as the _first_ step on any new laptop now

(2) Set aliases for frequently used stuff: E.g. `C-x C-m` instead of `M-x`. In general, this piggybacks on (1) above. A lot of Ctrl-? key combinations become very ergonomic, and you don't have to twist your hand into weird shapes.

Good luck! :-)
>They're just kind of ignored since nobody "chooses" to use an Intel GPU in their computer.

That is not entirely accurate though.

From a total GPU market presumptive, Low End / Low Power equals integrated GPU. And both AMD and Nvidia simply cant compete with that. The market of a Low End GPU is tiny and unprofitable. When most consumers or customers are happy with their Intel iGPU.

I dont blame them for lack of SKUs in this segment. And AMD is competing with their own APU as well.

Yeah well. People do not realise what 'cold' means.

It's when the standard equipment of a gasoline engined car includes a preheater which is basically a dedicated burner to heat up the engine because otherwise even a gas engine would not start.
Very closely because our business problems require a lot of understanding to solve accurately (more heads thinking about the problem). There’s very little siloing because the end result could be a useless product that solves nothing if you blindly build it to spec.

I’ve worked at places where design does throw something over the wall and the devs just build it, which worked fine when the problem space was straight forward (e.g build a photo album). Only so much to figure out there.
