Customized presentation is possible by starting with a blank template. Most do not do that, so if they want to customize, they spend time modifying and working around the default views. This has an effect of constraining the look. The difficulty emulating controller-like behavior means that adding multiple pieces of content to a view takes extra work.

As for the content architecture, Wordpress cpt are limited in their ability to relate to others and to define flexible custom fields (even with ACF.) It’s possible to hack together something like what a more flexible CMS or application framework can do, but it’s fragile and takes a lot of boilerplate, which, similar to template customization, steers the developer towards a similar architecture to other sites.

For these reasons, increased development and maintenance cost make it unlikely that an attempt to develop something truly customized on Wordpress will be successful. That said, many only know Wordpress development so may still get further with it than with a closer fit to their project.

The best solution I've heard is to just spend a lot of effort finding good hires from a variety of backgrounds early on. Then it doesn't matter as much that everyone refers people like themselves. You still manage to cover most potential hires, even if any given referrer doesn't.

The "early on" is important though, since "just try really hard" doesn't scale.
> And finally, these tools do still generate false positives.

And as long as we talk about tools that do some kind of semantic analysis (not just syntactic) on a turing-complete language they will always either have false positives, false negatives or both. Rice's theorem guarantees that.

They still can be useful though. I programmed a static analysis tool for PHP a long time ago and it worked surprisingly well.

To be fair brexit was always destined to be this. And while the tories deserve this, brexit was always going this way because it was about British ethnic nationalism. The chickens are coming home to roost, so agreed fuck bojo, the sun has set on the uk.
I am sorry you thought I insinuated astroturfing. I intended only intended that I am uninterested in commentary from people who seek to protect their karma points by posting opinions they know will be unpopular using throwaway accounts. I thought that would have been the obvious interpretation.
I didn't think that was it. Woman means "ones spouse", used to be used by anybody? Or do I have that wrong.

'Man' still means in some languages what "one" means in English in the sense of "one's friends are important". A person. Not a male.

But it isn't complicated. Today in English 'man' means a male. All the obfuscation using etymology and history are meaningless to a modern young person who knows what they're saying and what they're hearing.

Former software dev manager here. My job was split roughly into thirds - babysitting and mediating team issues, running interference to keep the executives out of my team's hair and bird-dogging HR and payroll issues. I would walk around sometimes and see if anyone needed me to expedite something or clear a blocker and I would go do it. (We were lucky in that we were working on something interesting and kind of ground-breaking so we didn't need a lot of "team building" rah rah to get everyone to work up the enthusiasm to work on a product nobody really cared about.)
It does. But there is still the other minority that one can work for.
I understand these arguments, but I can't help thinking that the use of the term "guys" is really a non-issue. As someone who's been living as an expat for the past 6 years, I speak 3 languages decently and another one poorly. If there is anything this has convinced me of, it's that languages in general don't make a lot of sense, and the meaning of words is purely defined by how they are used.

By that definition, "guys", when used to refer to a group of people, has always been a genderless term. In fact, growing up in a progressive town in the midwest, if I heard someone use the term "y'all" instead of "you guys", it would signal to me that they might not be that good on gender issues (due to an unjustified stereotype we had about southern people).

I think you can pick it apart, and find complex logical reasons why "guys" might be gendered in certain circumstances, but I think in 99% of cases when it's used, people are able to understand with complete clarity whether it's a gendered or genderless usage of the term.

And also I don't think it's going anywhere, because it's an incredibly useful term which has the right level of generality and casualness for a great many situations.
You can, of course, think of it this way; and you probably should. But, it also means more work, and you might as well update your distro if you go down that path. I'm reluctant to build & ship my own python for a very simple reason: you then take on the role&responsibilities of the distribution maintainers. I've taken over these roles in the past, and I recognize that this is hard, thankless work. You have to weight whether or not you can do better than the major distributions (you probably can't), and if it's even worth your time.

The UK did not do great before the EU. In the 1960s it was considered the "sick man of Europe". That was the reason they wanted to join the EEC in the first place (and were refused twice by De Gaulle).

A 2 hour each way commute is definitely excessive. Luckily the distances here are not as great as for instance in the US, so my colleague who lives in a town perceived as "far away" from the city has a ~1 hour commute by car. For comparison, I live 6km away from work (well within good public transit coverage) and it takes me around 35 minutes by bus.

As a downside to distances being generally shorter, we also don't have the same vast impressive swathes of nature that the US and Canada do, plus historically we cut down most of our forests to maintain an impressive navy. However we do have some forests left and plenty of coastline, no part of the country is more than 50km from the coast, there is still plentiful natural beauty to admire.

So it is possible to live closer to nature here, while still being not too far away from the city. In the long run, I may also want to get out of IT and do something less stressful and more "real", but that's something I'm still weighing the pros and cons of. There is also the consideration that by living in the city, I have very easy access to events and dining experiences, which is something I do still value, even if the pandemic has made all of that seem like the distant past.

One thing I do know is that I'm not interested in suburbia. It's either apartment living or close to nature, I'm not interested in the small identical plots of land, cookie cutter communities, HOAs, any of that stuff. I want my neighbors either on the other side of a wall or more than a stone's throw away :-)

Because I've done development both for embedded arm microcontrollers and CUDA. ARM feels like a benevolent overlord that wants to help you. Documentation is open, compilers are easily accessible, there's lots of random blogs with best practices on how to do common operations. Nvidia feels like their entire goal is to extract as much money out of you as they can.

I'm not hoping ARM fails. I'm hoping the sale fails, because if the sale succeeds, ARM will fail.

> UTF-8 as a fixed encoding only works if you manage to write mappers from and to alternative character set for practically any language outside US English.

Huh? I'm using UTF-8 exclusively for string data since around 20 years in C and C++ and never had to deal with language specifics (also true for non-European languages, we need to deal with various East Asian languages, and Arabic for instance). You need to convert from and to operating system specific encodings when talking to OS APIs (like UTF-16 on Windows), but that's it (and this is not language specific, code pages are an "8-bit pseudo-ASCII" thing that's irrelevant when working with UTF encodings.

When dealing with "vintage" text files with older language-specific encodings, you need to know the encoding/codepage used in those files anyway, and do the conversion from and to UTF-8 while writing or reading such files. Those conversions shouldn't be hardwired into the "string class".
Sure. Let's take array elements in reverse, from m to m-n.

> That sounds suspiciously like your team is not communicating enough in the first place though.

That's probably true. There definitely exist teams that communicate well enough that the benefit of a standup is nearly nonexistent. But many teams aren't like that and have a handful of people who need a structured process for communication or they will struggle. Standups aren't the best solution, but they are an easily implemented way of getting a team part way there.

Also when coding. I keep docs and messaging apps on one screen and I can keep the other screen clean with only code. It really is faster and easier with two screens.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philanthrocapitalism

> Philanthrocapitalism is a way of doing philanthropy, which mirrors the way that business is done in the for-profit world.

Bill Gates is a well known Philanthro-capitalist. He will not invest in a product for philanthropy unless it can be shown to create a profit in the target market.

The general idea is that the target market (no matter how poor it is), knows more about its given situation than you do. Otherwise, you start to fund disasters like Roundabout PlayPump (Child-labor issues: children are now "forced to play" to pump water).

If a locality actually thinks something is a good idea, they'll find a way to put up the cash. At which point, you know its a good idea to reciprocate with your philanthropy.

------------

Anyway, you don't need to necessarily agree with Philanthro-capitalism. All I'm trying to point out is that Bill Gates is consistent on this matter: he does believe strongly that free markets are the solution. Even to philanthropy.

Regarding bias: This is exactly true especially with the authors method, as the learned quantization ranges are fixed and accumulating biases would lead to the entire batch being clipped to 0 or 255, depending on the direction of the biases. Luckily the bias parameters are kept in int32, so the overall bias produced by them will be much smaller than 2 pct. The arithmetic errors of the int8 matmults are summed within matmul, and are therefore an unbiased estimate of the true entry in the result matrix.

I read through the article and was disappointed that it did not give a good treatment to the suburbs' new role as immigrant destinations. Historically inner city ethnic neighborhoods were where immigrants first landed, but now they move straight to the suburbs. And they do so for the same reason white people in the 60s and 70s did so: immigrants have larger families and want space and good schools at a good price. The narrative that suburbs are obsolete because (mostly white) baby boomers and their children have less of a need for them overlooks the suburbs' desirability to non-whites and immigrants climbing the ladder.

I had great success picking up a consistent meditation habit with the greasing the groove-approach[1].. in essence, every time I would feel a bit foggy in the head, I would take a 3-15 minute meditation session. It usually results to 3-5 sessions per day. It's such a great mental reset, and I haven't since experienced the kind of complete depletion that you get from pushing yourself hard through the day.

I bet some Zen master would reprimand me for this being the wrong approach, but I found it quite difficult to get into the habit of doing, say, a single 30-60 minute session per day. Now I can consistently drop into the meditation session with no urge for procrastination and have also successfully experimented with longer ones.
