Are you sure that our beliefs aren't "just" (the appropriate equivalent) of a stimulus or data point that has really high weight, e.g. because it was created during childhood and constantly reinforced?

Take the biases that we've heard about in image recognition where these ML models misclassify black people. If a person had done that you would accuse them of racist beliefs.

Why is the computer model so different? Because you don't want to believe that computers can reach consciousness? (I don't either at this point but time will tell. We don't really know enough - or I don't - about what consciousness is and how it works.)

> My basis for that is that virtually anything sex related, apart from toys, cannot be purchased with credit or debit cards.

Most porn can be bought with credit cards, at least in the USA. Mainstream payment processing companies like stripe may not be willing to do it but if you go try to buy (legal) porn right now with a credit card you will be able to do it.
> Too many movies, not enough life.

I got into trouble. That is life. How many college kids do drugs, for example? A lot! This is undeniable. Some people suffer consequences from that, and some don't. As with everything in life, it's a risk. If you think college kids doing really dumb things only occurs in movies, I'm interested to hear which college you attended.

We had a recent Supreme Court confirmation that dealt with the trouble the nominee got into as an undergrad. (Spoiler: There were no consequences.)
1. They want some level of backward compatibility, and they were on x86 before.

2. Most of the Tools and Library they used are on x86. Not only from MS & Sony, but also Game developers. It is going to take some courage to change all of that.

3. When the design of PS5 and Xbox X started, none of the ARM CPU IP design, ( In fact even as of today and next year, or may be even 2022 ) has a Single Core Performance that rivals AMD's Zen 2, and certainly not Apple's M1.

4. GPU IP, both are from AMD. Which may actually be more important that the CPU IP from a gaming perspective.

5. In case you ask why not Nvidia then since they made ARM SoC like those in Nintendo. Nvidia's pricing for latest Gen IP is way out of touch. Hence that is why you only see non-leading edge tech used in Switch. ( Nvidia is not a player that wants to sacrifice Margin for Market Share, which is actually a fair point )

I'm sure in some cases older reviews aren't relevant but in other cases they are quite important as they describe the host's attitude.

I met a person that rented the same horrific Airbnb I rented in Snoqualmie, WA. They were horrified too and wanted their money back. Airbnb said it was possible but they had to check with the owner. This was two years after my stay and after the host had been warned multiple times and had their superhost status stripped!

Indeed, this notion of "men are anti-porn" seems very antithetical to my lived experience.
I’ve found it similarly dismaying when I write a detailed answer that explains why something is done a certain way and include some background/context so the asker can learn from the question, only to have someone else answer “just do this” and paste in some (IMO poorly written) code with single character variable names and magic values and other such code smells, with the poor answer being “accepted” and upvoted.

Seems there’s not much point putting effort in to do something “properly”.
> they each have a profile

Absolutely true that languages are built to fulfill specific roles and have associated trade-offs. I think you answered your own question - JavaScript's strengths are being very widespread in current software development and having a minimal syntax/type system. IMO it can be a good language for MVPs/POCs and serve as a higher form of pseudocode. Perhaps the author's choice of JS as a way of reaching the widest possible audience and focusing on the concepts more than the implementation details.

A relatively recent personal example: in working through some DSL and parser combinator examples in Rust, sometimes I get too distracted with lifetimes, annotations to deal with deeply recursive functions, etc. and just search for examples in a different language that allow me to focus on the concepts I'm trying to learn.

As someone coming from the other direction of this "hack", I agree with the author's point to match needs to hardware.

Since being introduced to Linux in high school in the early 2000s, I have had a penchant for bringing old computers back from the dead. As a result, every laptop I have ever owned has been one that a friend or partner throws away when Windows gets slow. Every 3-5 year old laptop I have found can be brought back to life with a new Ubuntu/Mint install and Fluxbox. Case in point: I'm typing this on a 2011 Pavillion, my main workstation.

Finally, in the last few months, I realized my up-to-decade-old computers have been holding me back. Professionally, I do AI work on cloud resources and my personal projects have naturally ventured towards the same technologies. Docker, Scikit, NLP. My symmetric gigabit internet is bottlenecked by the ethernet card on my main workstation which maxes at 1% of that.

So I finally ordered a new laptop: 64 GB RAM, latest processor, dedicated graphics card to try my hand at CUDA locally, which is being assembled now. I'm not sure if this is the "start of buying new laptops" for me, or if this one is going to last 10+ years, but I think it underlines the author's point of identifying and aligning hardware with laptop requirements, especially as those things change.

Does this even matter though? Shitty technology choices don't always translate to poor business outcomes.
They are literal pimps doing literal pimp work: recruiting young girls, connecting them with clients, and taking a cut of the profit, while keeping control of the whole business.

It is not my fault you are offended.

I would have no problem if these sex workers setup their own site and did their own business directly with their clients. No pimp would be involved then. There would be no recruiting, which is also where I see a big problem. And nobody would be taking a cut.
I'm actually doing exactly that, lol.

Do you use c# ? I let only application layers talk to each other for now. Also, i have some issues finding a decent saga to use that stores it's state ( eg. Something like the library Mass transit)
Could you explain which aspects specifically require a lot of boilerplate code? Judging from my experience, I think the tactical DDD patterns are straight forward to implement. I didn't mention this in my post, but the Node.js framework was only concerned with CQRS & Event Sourcing.

I fully agree with you that (static) types are inevitable for tackling rich/complex domains adequately. Personally, I would often recommend the use of TypeScript over plain JavaScript.

As for the book, when I started working on it, I was using plain JavaScript. Over the course of the past four years, there were times, when I considered to rewrite the DDD parts with TypeScript. My current plan is to add an appendix or integrate additional content about (static) typing.

While types are an important aspect for the Domain layer, I think the rest of the book works fine without TypeScript. Its absence might even help to keep the code example more concise.

> I'm curious whether you used plain JavaScript on the professional projects?

Yes, in both relevant projects we were using plain JavaScript (or CoffeeScript). We had many runtime type checks and a high test coverage to overcome the lack of static types. TypeScript would have definitely been the better choice.
Wish I had read this a week ago before ChkDsk toasted my laptop.

I can't see anything on the linked page to suggest that the web was "born" 30 years ago today (i.e. 20 December 1990). On the contrary, it says it was invented in 1989.

Wikipedia[1] lists the official release date of the first web browser, WorldWideWeb, as 25 December 1990. Tim Berners-Lee has said that the first version was "whimsically dated 901225 although I was NOT working on Christmas Day -- it was prepared some time before closed for Christmas"[2] - so maybe that works out to 30 years ago today?

At least if we're talking about the US (and probably EU as well), it isn't the choice between life and death. Anyone can go be homeless in California and get a couple hundred a month in food stamps and medicaid. Or panhandle a few hundred a month from tourists.

I agree you shouldn't literally die if you choose not to work in a first world country, but you should only receive the bare minimum to keep you alive (e.g. a tent, basic medical treatment and a steady diet of government cheese).

> telling the computer how to run it took pretty much the same amount of typing, this time not in a programming language but in a structured markup language.

The myopia of "how much code and config is in my app" is inefficient for code reviews, but weigh that against what you gain.

Plenty of people use languages and frameworks without understanding the massive inefficiencies involved.

With configuration, you get insight into some of that inefficiency. It's also more inefficient during code reviews to have to review N changes in configuration.

But, is the end result fast enough for users and is the time needed to develop and maintain it sufficiently low?

If the answer is yes, assuming you're a foot soldier in the dev brigade, you keep going.

It's good to reduce the noise. Chuck Yeager started as a mechanic and worked on his own planes when he became a pilot. That made him a better pilot.

But, James Hart Wyld was the one concerned about the efficiency of the engine. Chuck just needed to break the sound barrier without dying.

In some ways it is the environment the M1 was born from that helped. mobile space CPU's focus upon low power usage and that has seen many core software tasks get dedicated instructions and why you end up with the M1 in some tests utterly trouncing competition as it has dedicated hardware catering for the common niche things that software ends up doing - the hardware video encoding being a small area, but deep down, more than that. This along with advances in software/hardware integration and being able to synergies that at a level nobody else can. The way to think of it is - if Intel did an operating system from scratch, it would tap the CPU extremely well compared to others due to them knowing the internals better and fully. Then add the ability for them to see that adding some dedicated hardware to replace some software instruction combinations and you start to see a tightly integrated team of CPU and Operating system/software.

One area that I've always wished CPU's would take would be a dedicated core or two for the OS that is completely isolated from the other cores, which would be for the software/applications you run. Now if those ran about two different architectures - darn that would be the inner geek in me appeased.
> [About SV] An observer might note that all of these companies are dominated by men, in an industry dominated by men, tightly interwoven with a venture capital industry that is super-dominated by men. So it’s curious why none of these men have shown any interest in addressing the massive and lucrative sex work industry that overwhelmingly serves, well, men; until you consider who pays the real costs of that industry’s brokenness: women.

It's such a primitive and toxic line of thinking. The real explanation is that SV doesn't care about the plight of porn actresses not because they're women, but because people in general mostly care about themselves and their closest ones only. Just see that the SV also doesn't care about the plight of rare earth miners (which SV needs for their electronics), even though they're mostly men. I.e. the gender is not a factor here, and yet article authors try very hard to make it look like it is.
That page (BA.net) is just a pirated version of the original with advertising added. (Not really amused.)

The original version works with touch, as well. (The same controls are used by the printed version, including the visual assets.) If you don't get the touch controllers automatically, have a look at the option menu (the stylized gear icon at the top of the screen).

Moreover, any game controllers should be supported (matching the usage scheme from the 1981 anniversary reunion at the Boston Computer Museum using Atari joysticks.)

This guy seems to be operating on the assumption that MEN are to blame for pornography's status as a social pariah. As if mothers everywhere would be proud of their daughters producing pornography on Onlyfans if only their husbands weren't in their ear shaming them.

Don't forget that Pis also draw quite some power while idle. The Pi 4 draws around 3.4 Watts [1], or around 2.7 Watts since they are running headless in a server setup you'd probably disable HDMI [2]. Times fourteen that's 37.8 Watts just sitting there. An idling headless Desktop PC will be below that for sure.

Well, what about Gebru's findings? Data in and of itself is not beneficial, we do have certain underlying beliefs about appropriateness and goodness. There is an element of innate belief at play.

Otherwise, chatbots are very good at learning abusive and racist language. It's due to our belief that it's not right and decent that we train them using a bias. And it's only due to beliefs that we rein in the rogue AI which misclassifies black people.

Having been in a sector of fintech that many sex workers used, I can say with confidence that the majority of the women within were single moms who simply couldn't or didn't have access to the social net to feed their children and aren't doing it because they want to.

It was entirely eye-opening to see how sad it is when you're talking with a young women trying to sell their bitcoin at 2am to pay for rent before they get evicted and have enough to buy baby formula and diapers.

The US is so backwards, they can show the most depraved forms of violence and cruelty imaginable and call it entertainment with out batting an eye, but showing the Human form in any sexual manner is somehow cause for alarm and deemed perverse and promoting rape culture if you believe some of the most absurd in Society.

Whereas in Europe and Asia nudity is completely accepted in many public areas, and sex work is tolerated, legal and is just another, albeit uncommon, thing people do for a living and nothing more.

As for this article, its showing how pervasive the Panopticon this form of the Internet is and underscore the idea that 'you are the product' mantra about 'free' services. We really need a different Internet already. Porn is and will always be a big component of the Internet, but much like the antics you had when you were an adolescent you soon realize their is much more value in other things and move on.
I found this strange effect while reading it. If I focused on each word, and tried to make sense of it, I could not grasp what was being instructed. However, if I read at normal speed, my brain seemed to pattern match the words and convert them to the modern usage and I could make sense of it.

There were some Spring applications that took more than 5 minutes to start in my old job. However, things are most probably improved now with lazy initializations of beans and maybe developers of that applications could have done better at that time. I don't know it is still the case now.

> Also, with the current network speeds and memory availability, it's hard to imagine the war size to be a bottleneck in web development.

Network speed was not the problem, decompression / expansion of the application was. There were war files about 100-150 MB size. Also I saw one with size of 1.5GB however it was an exception. These may or may not be a concern depending on your CPU utilization, disk speed, memory, etc.

Most decisions depends on environment. For some environments, as you said, deployments are not a concern for microservices, for some they are.
It is a misconception that all nomadic or foraging humans had to spend 100% of their time trying to stay alive.

If the problem is "mass unconsensual sharing of images" social networks are a lot worse than any porn website.

There are tens of unauthorized pictures of people faces and properties on social networks, not counting kid pictures.

Does PornHub keeps a list of shadow profiles like FB does?

I don't think so.

If I was a parent my biggest issue would be the "not consensual" part of the story.
