Upon re-reading the tweet that ostensibly triggered the takedown, I think I actually agree. Originally I read the author throwing out the insult "dirtbag left" as an indication that they were in opposition to the leftist message presented in the documentation, but with closer reading I see that this person certainly considers themselves to be on the left.

GTA Online is a live game that pulls in over half a billion USD per year in revenue. They release new content on a regular basis. It's actively developed, they just don't care (my guess would be that defects were filed against this on a regular basis and fixing it was never prioritized)
Identity is a very sensitive area with strict cryptography and compliance requirement regarding password hashing, token signing etc. Then they have to keep updated with ever changing OAUTH/SAML standards and integration with providers like Facebook/Google etc. They have to get audited and certified like ISO 27001, HiTRUST etc. These are very expensive to manage and high risk for non-tech companies (think banks, insurance, utilities etc.) and hence are outsourced.
It could be coupled with a hefty UBI. No need for means-testing. If everyone got e.g. $10,000/yr, that would completely offset VAT for people who don't buy much. People who spend millions every year wouldn't even notice it.
Today President Biden had his feed cut off after agreeing to take questions.

So nice that the ruling technocracy to protect our delicate minds from any but the most filtered down and meaningless political jargon.

I for one was shocked at how the prior president said whatever was on his mind. So inconsiderate of him not to get approval from our glorious ruling class.

Thanks to President Harris and her loyal FANG guard we will never hear an unapproved thought again.
I’m imagining a world where writing the word “they” is banned.

As in: if you don’t have something “we” to say, don’t say anything at all.

Maybe they shouldn’t. This is such an annoying comment. GP wasn’t uncalm. By saying such a flippant statement, it seems to me that you’re denegrating GP and saying that his ideas aren’t worth talking about.

As if being calm is some ideal to always maintain anyway.
Great points. Dual career track exists for good reasons.

If your ICs want to become managers, apply similar hiring criteria as you would to outside managers.

Also keep in mind that first-time managers can require a lot of mentoring to come up to speed as managers. If you're a small startup without additional bandwidth for proper mentoring, transitioning someone from IC to manager without proper support is not doing them any favors.
Why not both? A little DRAM on SoC and the rest of the DRAM on the motherboard. Kernel in charge of "swapping". Maintains expandability while keeping most of the performance benefit.
You can keep the existing sscanf function and now strlen is O(1) so the bug is gone. Any questions?
Do you plan on incorporating how salaries compare to local costs of living?

Discretionary income can vary widely after living expenses are removed for a given salary for a given locale.
Life is controversial by its very nature. I'm not saying you have to go full teenage edgelord, but we have to learn to accept that everyone has different lives and experiences. These experiences lead to different viewpoints and opinions. I have very different viewpoints than even myself a few years ago. I imagine a completely different person in a different city or country would disagree with at least some of them. And you know what? I am okay with that.

I don't like this fake-wokism SV monoculture creeping into everything. I wouldn't mind them sharing their opinions on things if they didn't have teeth. Somehow the professionally oppressed are backed by nearly every major corporation on the planet. It makes me overreact. I don't like it. Most people don't like it. Everything they say sounds like "Pick up that can, Citizen."

Presumably hundreds of dollars.

Well above what most companies would think of as theft.

Whichever way you look at it, they disabled the account because he hadn’t paid for his computer, which is not unreasonable in itself.

Whatever happened, Dustin must have known he hadn’t sent in the trade-in, but he didn’t mention that when he incorrectly stated that his account had been disabled because of non payment of just one Apple Card bill.
Wow this link is fascinating! How fun that you got to be a part of that. I'm trying to imagine an IBM field tech back in the day being called to a customer site and having to go through similar with a customer who was renting one of these for exorbitant sums. It must have been stressful. I'm sure there was some sort of SLA.
nice to see someone being critical of Kahneman's ideas. I broadly like the rationalist community in general, but the focus on trying to system-2 all the things is ludicrous.

It might look that way to you but it's not that way. Two Democrats in the Senate are against almost every progressive idea (IMHO). Even if all of the Democrats except for those two want something they have to convince a couple of Republicans to go their way. Those 2 sensare basically the most powerful people in the Senate.
I don't know the numbers but Ableton would be losing a huge percentage of their market if they stopped supporting Mac. I can't imagine them doing that, ever.

God I wish they would support Linux. I understand why they don't however. I would dearly love to leave Windows but Apple is not an option.
How? You're basically describing RAM caching. Putting all the ram physically close to the processor gives a giant performance gain that's mostly lost if any of the system's RAM is "remote" on the motherboard.
Technically, the poster the poster you replied to could be said to have been tone policing with the assertion of releasing a deliberately "provocative" abstract.

I mean, I get it, it's not the most straightforward mental leap, but I can understand the sentiment.

And as far as responsible disclosure goes, no, the responsible thing to do is to notify everyone at once. Keep in mind if it is right, this means that nation state actors have just been equipped with a roadmap to potentially cracking a lot of banked ciphertext, probably faster than anyone else.

You don't sit on that kind of thing, even if it does mean some corporate actors get burned.

If the only thing saving your rear was an RSA key... Take notice: the clock may have just been significantly advanced. Be you nation-state, corp, or someone who'd just prefer to remain in the shadows.

Suffer thee not information asymmetry to live lest you carry the blood of those you sacrifice on the altar of your limited disclosure. It also hedges against you getting disappeared and suppressing whatever other people you shared it with that remain to keep something so relied upon from being realistically entertained.

I mean, cmon, how long has everyone been joking they'd hate to be the person who discovered how to break RSA, because we all know it would lead t

It’s also in the linked article since we can view the deleted file in the PR.
Exactly. And I didn't even realize how often I subconsciously select text while I read until I saw the relevant xkcd. [1]

I truly think my random clicking on paragraphs that I'm approaching isn't just ADHD but a way of helping my eyes stay on track. It's very disconcerting when the text doesn't select. (As, clearly, all these comments noticed as well -- why were we all trying to select the text? To check if it's Flash-ish, of course, but also we just like things to grab onto while we read.)

I say there's an equal chance, and it's equally easy to fix, but a high level language provides fewer distractions and temptations to work on small optimizations which don't matter. Getting in the weeds with the details is how you lose sight of the big picture. And allocate your time poorly.
I don't think we could come up with a standard x axis bounds for such a graph, since n=1000, or 1,000,000 may not be zoomed out enough to showcase the behavior approaching infinity.

It's not the third party that makes it a problem. It's the comingling. So if you buy it from one company it could have actually came from another. So there is no way for the bad 3rd party to be held accountable. As far as I know Amazon is the only marketplace that does this.
That article disputes the validity of one of the BBC's sources. (I'll note that it seems to take state propaganda at face value, which is pretty questionable). What about all the other sources and findings of the BBC investigations? Is it all just one big conspiracy?
> Was being able to easily inspect and change what was happening in apps you didn't have intentional source access for (web pages/apps) not key to that?

I got into web design/programming in the 90s, and the answer is basically no. Sure you could poke around a bit, but I never found it to be a revelation. I still had to buy books, read blogs, and do a ton of trial and error. Also, it was a never-ending game of trying to testing to see what each new browser release added or broke.

I can't really understand what you mean. You can validate yourself that parsing with strtod will break if your system's locale is set to a locale where the decimal separator is a comma ',' instead of a period '.' - as an example, most European locales. Whether or not strtod will try to magically fall back to "C" locale behavior is irrelevant because it is ambiguous. For example, what do you do if you are in Germany and you try to parse 100.001? Is it 100001?

strtod also doesn't guarantee round-trip accuracy that you can achieve when you use Steele & White and Clinger. All in all, I really think it is just not a good idea to use the C standard library for string operations.
I like this. Hadn't heard it before, but it's succinct and as it happens, I agree!
According to [Michael Frank's video](https://youtu.be/IQZ_bQbxSXk?t=547), there is an architectural overhead of ~500x that people can not get over (IIUC, this overhead only applies for gate based computing models). A reasonable gap between state-of-the-art gate based computing models and Landauer's limit should be 10^2-10^3. On the other side, reversible computing in general has 2-16 times computational overhead at the software level from my using experience. To save energy, reversible computing has to be at least ~10x more energy efficient at the instruction level.
Because, much like their laptops and phones, the people who are buying them aren't "optimizing for reliability", but rather "showing off"

I just can’t figure out the exact code.
This is one of the reasons I added archiving to a browser we’re building[1]. I wouldn’t archive when I had to do it manually. The internet is way too ephemeral as an information source. Let me know if you want to try it at some point (super pre launch).

> The pell grant will more than cover many community college options.

Where "many" is about 10% based on this link. [1]

Four states have an average cost under the maximum pell grant. Most states have fewer than 5 colleges that meet that requirement.

So tack on moving expenses and housing to tuition to go find an affordable community college. I'm sure paying rent is cheap in those towns, and would be covered by the Pell grant, assuming you qualified for the full $5750.

> Housing is very affordable in most of the US. Just not in major cities. In my smallish college town, 100k population, you can get a 3 bed 2 bath, 1200 sqft home for around $120k.

Sure, if you don't mind working at a gas station or supermarket with your fancy new college degree. But there are "many" dying rural towns that will pay you to move there, so there's that. [2]

Bottom line: no one in their right mind can argue that being poor isn't really that terrible as OP did. The fact that you're trying to, is gross.

I’m sure you’re not being sarcastic at all. I’ve spent a lot of time dealing with interpreting/writing/improving security policies, which largely revolves around the same sort of issues were discussing here. I would guess that you also have a fair bit of experience with that sort of thing.

My main point was that I think a guideline that nobody follows is arguably less valuable than not having a guideline in the first place. I think I did a reasonable job of articulating what I think is wrong with it, but I guess whether I have any useful suggestions for improving it is a different matter. I find the process of writing a policy usually involves suggesting a lot of bad ideas before you come up with a set of good ones.
I second this. Ok, I'm on the Manager schedule now. How do I still make things? Having kids puts you on the Manager schedule (interruptions are to be expected and blocks of time without pre-scheduled interruptions are rare) whether you like it or not.
I have not quit programming but I do run a meat sheep operation with my wife. It's almost profitable.

There is a steep learning curve. It's a lot of hard work. The pay is not great. You have to be the right kind of person, and it helps to already have capital so you don't start out in debt.

In my case, my wife is a large animal vet so our vet bills are minimal.

I strongly dissuade anyone considering this change from just quitting their day job, buying some land, and starting from boot. Go work on someone else's farm first, or start as a side gig. Figure out what you are doing and where your market is. You can go bankrupt very easily and surprisingly quickly — one disease gets into your herd because you didn't take the right bio safety precautions, or your feed gets contaminated and you have an abortion storm, and you're out almost all of your capital, and the characteristic time period for making more income is - of course - a year.
Yup, really they had the right idea in that it was native components that were hoisted by JavaScript binding... it really lost steam because it became easier to just build native Swift (and later kotlin android). It was a solid play at the problem in it’s time. Note: I worked at Appcelerator in the “gogo” years and it was great, and they/we almost made it happen in a real way.
All Measures Short of a Cross Straits Invasion
It’s not just a “small UI layer” — there’s an entire stack that goes with it. Want to build iOS apps? Can’t do it on Windows or Linux; you have to buy a Mac, run macOS, learn that whole stack, install Xcode, figure that whole thing out, learn how the App Store works, including all of its rules and regulations. But that’s not all—you also have to figure a CI pipeline for that whole thing too.

Rinse and repeat for every platform.

That’s what makes the web beautiful: you write the app once and it mostly runs everywhere. You have to figure out the infrastructure I described above once and you’re done.

Or at least that’s how it use to be before the major platform players realized how lucrative it is to charge developers App Store fees.
Here's an analogy: laws vary from country to country, from state to state, city to city.

But we understand the principle of law-making, what laws mean and how they're applied. This is fairly uniform. What really changes from place to place is the content of those laws.

AI ethics and AI safety are attempting to give us a set of "law-making" rules but for AI. We get to decide (democratically ideally), in countries, states, cities, what "ethics" (what laws) we want, but AI Ethics as a field gives us tools to achieve that regardless of what the ethics/laws are.

For example, how do we encode the trolley problem in self-driving cars? We could decide democratically that cars should act and kill 1 instead of 5. Or the opposite. But then how do we translate that into ifs and else? No one really knows how to do that.

Only if your algorithm is conducive to parallelism based speedup. Amdahl's law still applies.

Whether it is an offended party or a result of the constant conditioning in some community that this kind of satire is offensive,

That the complainer uses "dirtbag left" disparagingly is quite telling, given that this style of left-wing activism started as a reaction to bring leftist politics back to its anti-capitalist roots, and away from the sort of hand-wringing politically-correct tropespotting nonsense the complainer likes to tweet about.
I don’t know how this “memory on the SOC” thing became a narrative. That isn’t responsible for any of the M1’s performance. Apple isn’t using anything fancy like HMC or HBM that can’t be done with off-package memory. It’s a regular 128 bit memory bus and standard LPDDR4x (at the top standard frequency), with slightly higher memory latency than Intel and AMD. Pretty much any HEDT x86 system has a more impressive memory system.
There's this wonderful group called the Flat Earth Society, it's been around for a while. There's always been a few members who take the group very seriously, but for the majority of the members, it's purely a joke. People would propose these absurd theories, and most people understood it was not meant to be taken seriously.

Then somehow there was this modern movement of people who truly believed the world is flat. I heard them promoting the same exact theories that I had heard years before, and when I tried to point that out to some of them, I was called an idiot.

Flat-earthers have ruined The Flat Earth Society. Now normal people believe the Society is real flat-earthers, and real flat-earthers hate the Society because they realized it was all about mocking Flat Earth beliefs.

To me, the entirety of the world is ridiculous, and you have to just laugh at it, otherwise it's all very depressing. People are far too humorless and serious, while society gets even more ridiculous.
How incredibly silly. Some people have so little to do with their lives that they're compelled to find things to be outraged about.

A majority of the time is spent on the "LeetCode grind." You can evaluate your own progress while you solve practice problems by checking time and checking how many solutions are correct on the first submit. Most likely 1 week would barely be enough to establish your baseline performance per category (DP, trie, etc.).
We know for sure they died out because humans kept hunting them and eating them. Humans seem less interested in hunting now, and though we'd pay lots of money to hunt these, some would be left over to continue the species.
A wealth tax. All assets and cash need to be properly valued and then that value taxed. I agree with the sibling comment and also with past discussions where a wealth tax is the only non-regressive (not-keep the poor down) tax code.

So-B – Redefining lip health for a carefree future
I accept that I work in a world in which not everyone is trustworthy and sometimes that means that I'm subject to verification procedures. What reason is there to feel indignant about that? The existence of controls is not at all the same thing as being accused of committing a crime.

Should a convenience store clerk be indignant that their cash drawer has to balance out at the end of their shift? Should a bookkeeper be indignant that cash handling controls are enforced?

I realize that controls can be excessive but that is different than being indignant that there are controls at all.

(Just to be clear, the issue of being paid for the time associated with controls is really something entirely different than objecting to the controls themselves)
