Sounds like you opened Krita expecting it to behave just like Gimp. You should take an hour and actually learn Krita. As someone who learned photoshop in the 90s, InkScape, Painter, Gimp, etc. Krita is my GOTO for any art needs now.

While those games (and many others) do have excellent stories, where Cyberpunk shines for me is less in the actual storyline(s) but rather in how emotionally invested I became in the characters.

The situations they were in was less interesting to me. Like, the main story itself is mediocre at best. Many of the side stories are good, but not amazing. What is absolutely top notch, though, is the characters: their personalities, how they're portrayed, their actors (voice and animation) etc. They are likable, believable and I got emotionally invested in them more than for many games with otherwise better stories.
4 ways to make money through your blog as a Developer
OK, I'll take your word for it. But I have a hard time imagining what that experience could even look like. I mean, do people go around quizzing each other on their anti-racist credentials? In my world, this doesn't even come up in day-to-day conversation. The only reason it's on my radar screen at all is that I wrote a blog post about it a few months ago that ended up blowing up in my face.
Facebook did not "sell" anything in this case. Facebook is a neutral carrier that got duped like everyone else. A malicious company used Facebook's API to ask for access to people's data and certain data about their friends, and people stupidly said yes. Should we now fault Facebook for complying with their user's wishes?
so, what's the big difference between source available and open source?
Seems hard to make an argument either for or against racial disparities in police shootings then, if the data is unreliable. In which case the answer is to not make assumptions, but collect better data.

A lot of people seem to take the approach of: the data's good if it says what I want; if it doesn't, it's probably wrong.
Starting strength - absolutely. It’s fine and served me well, but it isn’t the bible of building strength. There are several books worth reading, different schools of thought, but somehow SS always comes out on top on Reddit.
This is one of the reasons why business negotiation books will remind you that when you’re making a deal with a vendor, you want to make a deal that is profitable for the vendor and supports / sustains their business. If you don’t, then you’ll have to find a new vendor after they collapse (or get rid of you as a client).

For personal hosting I think one of the problems that makes this more complicated is that even as a group, you’re nobody’s biggest customer. You’re just a side business for someone selling hosting B2B, usually. I know that the local grocery store will make sure that they can still sell to local customers, because that’s the core of their business; I’m not so sure that cloud providers care much about my dinky website.

> for less work compared to AAA studios releasing blockbusters like RDR2

That's a pretty wild statement. Dota 2 is one of the most supported games out there with giant patches coming multiple times per year. Perhaps only World of Warcraft can claim to be better supported. Games like RDR2 are build-and-forget. They get no long term support.

Additionally there is the difference between playing a game to experience some story (like RDR2) and playing a game because it is challenging and fun (Dota 2). These story based games like RDR2 can be great experiences in short bursts (up to a 100 hours tops), but are incredibly boring for someone who plays 4+ hours per day and puts thousands of hours into a specific game. It's like playing tic-tac-toe when you're a chess grandmaster. Mind numbingly boring.
I agree that Rust is opinionated and complex. But most of the other widely-supported programming languages (that I use) for low-level and embedded development are also opinionated and complex: C++ and Ada.

C is obviously not as complex, but it that is because it offers so much less. Depending on what is needed, C may be a great choice, but it generally means bringing or creating a bunch of library code for string-handling, data structures, etc.
I understand the historic context of laziness, and what it "brought" or "taught" us. But is it really that important now, or moving forward? I side with Snoyman in the "strict by default would probably be better".

Sure it's no longer Haskell then. But could there not be a language like Haskell leveraging strict by default? Possibly even on the GHC?

Animation Is Eating the World
As for me, I certainly recognize several of the positions he describes, so I don't think it's a complete straw man. But I also haven't observed several of the attitudes he describes.

Seems to me maybe what he's seeing is not a religion where people are required to hold two incompatible beliefs in their head, but the result of public discourse where basically rational and consistent, yet angry, people fall on different sides of an issue and their voices in concert become incoherent.

In which case, the solution is perhaps: don't get sucked into the sturm und drang based on everything you read on Reddit. Be compassionate. Pay attention to what's around you. Look for opportunities to make a difference.
just to be clear here, if you can sum it up in one phrase, Racism is the assumption that some racea are inferior, and antiracism holds that race is a concept that has no place in reality!?

If labeling it anti- then because it only needs mention when contradicting racism, but it can be an independent position held by anyone who simply disregards at least the name, or one of the various concepts attached. This has befuddeld me for a long time because via exposure I thought anti racism was the norm, but accademia frequently dabbles in racist topic (though without making value judgements). One reason to reject it is that drawing differences invariably leads to a sense of competition and all that follows. Vice versa, I pressume, that denying actual differences can also lead to losses (disenfrenchise) may then appear as new racism.

Branding that as racism is simply incivil, because it ascribes intent or lantent aggression where there is none. It's not all about name-calling, but abstractly speaking it is. So, please don't defend an abstract position without accurately describi g it (in case I misinterpreted anything), because that really is indistinguishable from a scarecrow.
In detailed comparisons all simplified models break down. Tallying max theoretical compute is only appropriate if you're going to put in the effort to actually use it, which is exceedingly rare, even in compute kernels that have supposedly had lots of love and attention already paid to them. So the human factor has to be included in the model and the human factor consistently de-rates SIMD more than it does SIMT.

I realize that under the covers this is more of a compiler/language thing than a compute model thing, but for whatever reason I just don't see much SIMT code targeting CPUs, so again, human factor.

If a car has parts that are easily hacked/broken into, leading to injury to its user while the user "chose" to drive, shouldn't the manufacturer be at fault? This is what happened with CA and Facebook's API.

>When we write code, on the other hand, we do have an ideal “reader”: the computer.

The ideal reader is the human who’s stuck with the chore of maintaining your code. If you write your code only to please the computer, the human will begin to dislike you.
McWhorter is a great writer and linguist. Incredibly entertaining and enjoyable to read.

Which is why I find his political takes such as this one...so disappointing. Generally my biggest criticism is that he's not nearly as far left as he positions himself and often makes himself a useful idiot deployed against those who actually are.

"Ta-Nehisi Coates in Between the World and Me wanted to teach his son that America is set against him; I want to teach my kids the reality of their lives in the 21st rather than early-to-mid-20th century. Lord forbid my daughters internalize a pathetic—yes, absolutely pathetic in all of the resonances of that word—sense that what makes them interesting is what other people think of them, or don’t."

This reeks of "racism is dead or nearly so" which is laughable given the protests of the past year especially when juxtaposed against the police response compared to the state capitol protests that culminated in the insurrection in D.C.

"Third Wave Antiracism is losing innocent people jobs. It is coloring, detouring and sometimes strangling academic inquiry."

The first sentence falls under outrage obsessed social media more broadly and is lacking any sort of evidence.

The second is remarkably ignorant of the suppression/ignoring of ideas and views that have recently been forced into broader conversation. Combined with the previous comment on race that I highlighted it points to a "Let's go back in time" mentality that is the complete antithesis of progressive political thought.
It's bizarre that the one person with actual experience in this thread is being downvoted...

But I second this. Yelp won't remove legitimate reviews, even for paying businesses. You can pay for priority in search listings and to show up in the Similar and Nearby sections, but that won't help you get negative reviews removed.

As I speak, there are 2.5 star restaurants being promoted in every search I do for nearby restaurants. If Yelp removed the negative reviews as people claimed, they wouldn't be at 2.5 stars right now.

(It's true that some individual sales reps claim Yelp will do this if you pay them, but those are individual sales reps trying to hit a sales or bonus goal.)
You’re making the same argument. Public comments are fair game and there’s no expectations of privacy. A private, or invite only, or a network like fb with complex privacy controls is another story entirely.
Wow that's terrible how they handle that. What a bad process. That can't happen with your bank accounts for anything in the US unless you had a special judgment against you in court, which is difficult to get, it would take a long time but you'd have the option to contest it or get some leniency.

Typically auto related things are tied to just that - your car could get a boot put on it, could be towed, you could get your license suspended. You accrue fines. But they aren't garnishing any funds from any bank account. And you have recourse in court and other programs if you can't afford it.

Thanks!

We handle incentives using Tremendous as our API. It's very good, covers the vast majority of countries, and lets us payout in cash cards, Amazon gift cards etc - we let the participants pick their preferred method.

By plugging into the API and handling all the scheduling + interviews in the same place it means we can automatically payout folks who attend, generate reports on spending and help manage budgets without needing to skip between multiple tools.

> and whose characteristics he describes in his ten-point characterization is actually representative of the views of people who are concerned about racism today.

OK, this just isn't credible.

> Silence about racism is violence. But elevate the voices of the oppressed over your own.

You've never heard the slogan "Silence is violence"?

> Show interest in multiculturalism. But do not culturally appropriate. What is not your culture is not for you, and you may not try it or do it. But—if you aren’t nevertheless interested in it, you are a racist.

You didn't see the national outrage over a girl wearing a Chinese dress to prom?

> When whites move away from black neighborhoods, it’s white flight. But when whites move into black neighborhoods, it’s gentrification, even when they pay black residents generously for their houses.

You've never heard of "white flight" or "gentrification"?

I simply don't believe you if you are saying the arguments put forth in his ten-point characterization are uncommon.
100% agree. The fretting in this situation is hilarious and obviously what you say. The stimulus checks have been amazing for poorer people from anecdotal evidence.

The unemployment stimulus and expansion to include gig and freelance workers has been amazing. In a state like my New Jersey, you were able to get a minimum $831 a week with the April-July 13 week $600 stimulus. And currently $531 and $631 a week if Biden’s stimulus includes $400 extra a week.

A family member shut down their business at the beginning of the pandemic. All the minimum wage no benefit receiving former employees were able to make more through July 2020 from unemployment.

Adding on to what you said - the hard money/Bitcoin people like many other people, will blame a recession beginning in 2021 or 2022 on the other side regardless of the reasons.

Looks as though the issue is still persisting.
I wasn’t intending to stereotype Protestants at all. But I think it’s not a controversial thing to say that American Protestantism in particular has some very unique aspects, especially in comparison to say, German Protestantism. Just off the top of my head, Puritanism, Prosperity theology, and Mormonism all strike me as very American phenomena. If you look at them from a certain angle, the first two have nearly identical value systems to contemporary Silicon Valley, with the content of the belief being slightly different.

I should also make clear that I’m not casting any judgment on anything I’ve listed. In fact, I’d consider myself a fan of many of them. Just pointing out the similarities and the funny hypocrisy that sometimes appears by those who are very vocal in their criticism.
Coming from a math background, once I had the syntax sorted and could write a few simple file parsers in Haskell, “Category theory for programmers” helped me understand some of what the Haskell type system is trying to accomplish. (Endofunctors of the category of Haskell types). I didn’t and still don’t understand the template C++ in the book but still my favorite Haskell resource. Many of the examples are written in both Haskell and C++.

Caveat: I just started learning this last year.

Our compiler backends are pluggable. We went with XLA because that seemed the most accessible to us 3 months ago but you should be able to bring in libtorch or any other tensor compiler.

That's actually one of the things I am really looking forward to: see what other compilers people will integrate with. I am aware some of the neural network libs have pluggable compilers but it will be interesting to see it done at the tensor level. :)

6% of compensation would still be a safe harbor plan, excluding the plan from ACP/ADP test requirements, so unfortunately it's quite possible that the director making ~$1MM annually in salary gets a ~$40k match (though not much more, because the total cap for 2021 is $58k, and that director is likely maxing out or close to maxing out, so $19.5k + $40k would cap them.)

Data Pseudonymisation: Advanced Techniques and Use Cases
You're so right. I grew up a couple of miles outside a small Midwest city, and then that was enough to hide a lot of the dim stars. Being in the middle of the Pacific ocean at night, and caught been the phosphorescent bacteria churned up behind us and the Milky Way above us was the most spiritual experience of my life. It was so beautiful that I cried.

I took my kid camping in Joshua Tree last year and we spent a lot of time just taking in all the stars and waving at the occasional satellite zipping overhead. If someone's never done this, I cannot possibly over-recommend it.
Mistakes and Memes – the mistakes in predicting the Internet's fate
Yeah, isn't it basically a repeat of Jordan Peterson's criticism of 'French Theory' academics ?

I don't know that much about 'postmodernism', but it seems like both JP and the North American academics responsible for the 'French Theory' are pretty much misunderstanding those French philosophers (which is partially the fault of French philosopher's dense prose, which isn't new for philosophers (I hear some Germans are even worse ?), and maybe also the North American academics being unable to read French, which is new ?

https://medium.com/s/story/peterson-historian-aide-m%C3%A9mo...

Funnily enough, Peterson is in a way right about calling their bullshit ? But that's easier than being constructive... (Which he probably also is in that book of his, but self-help isn't philosophy.)

And for nuclear all large problems are excluded from the statistics. The Chernobyl disaster probably killed about million people according to reputable western european studies. But the official Soviet statistic is one person dead, and that is what is used in most official statistics for nuclear.

And Chernobyl is one of the more transparent cases. There were studies done on the damage because the disaster was caused by the weak Soviet empire which everyone on the west wanted to bring down. Other disasters, like three mile island and fukushima have certainly killed hundreds of thousands but everyone is very careful not to do a study on that.

So what I am saying is these statistics are not to be trusted. They are mostly an indication of the political power the owners of certain power plants have.

Other than the time that X explicitly and directly asked Z for access to their data, you mean.

This isn't similar to a case where I stored my users' info in a database on Cloud Hosting Service Inc machines, CHS's lax security allowed the data to be hacked, and I am now accountable to my users because I used an insecure service. Facebook's role in this situation was, literally speaking, a permissions broker between the end users and Dr. Kogan. The end users granted Dr. Kogan permission with every opportunity to learn about Dr. Kogan.

Edit: Correction that users had a chance to learn about Dr. Kogan, not CA.
On the surface, a cesspool dedicated to efficiently, and effortlessly, building and curating your own bubble. Terrible for humanity, and for everyone involved in the "discussions."

Dig deeper, and it's mostly porn.

If you zoom into any random community, it's probably porn. If it's not porn, it's some curated and heavily modded bubble forum for like minded individuals to reinforce what they already believe.

It's unfortunate that Reddit ever added comments, or karma.
Why would you need to bootstrap Rust on a T2 platform? You already have a rustc build for that platform, can't you just use it? It may be buggy yes, but if you have a built compiler you should already be a good deal of the way to having a working compiler since you can "just" run the tests and see which ones break. Descriptions of what actual problems you ran into would be greatly appreciated, especially since riscv64-musl isn't a target mentioned at all in https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.htm... and I do want to know what makes it so hard to get a platform from T2 to T1.

I also resent the insults that I am blindly "towing the party line", I truly don't believe that with the market share POWER9 and RISCV have it is worth putting in the effort of supporting them unless you are a "true beliver" in them, in which case you can put the work in yourself if you want to. If this is unreasonably hard (which it does appear to be since you weren't able to make any progress in a week) it would be much better to hear what actually made it so hard instead of whining that the Rust devs won't support your esoteric platform for you.
> Plus on laptops AMD has more cores

Some of the AMD chips don't support SMT, so maybe this statement doesn't tell the whole story. I recently looked at the Lenovo ideaPad Flex 5 that was offered in an AMD flavor with Ryzen™ 5 4500U or an Intel flavor with Core™ i5-1135G7. The AMD chip is 6 core / 6 thread, and the Intel chip is 4 core / 8 thread.

I'm supposed to care about the number of threads rather than the number of cores, n'est-ce pas?
