No wonderfully structured answer, I'm afraid. We do now have engineering teams in Japan, Singapore, India, Ireland, Mexico, Nigeria (via Paystack), and elsewhere, and it helps a lot to have people "on the ground" who really get what's going on. Ultimately, we want to identify the patterns that should be globally popular but aren't yet. To do that, though, there's ultimately a lot of subjective judgment required.
Is < 50ms considered fast? I recently tried out xterm and I felt the decreased latency compared to my current alacrity setup. I’d love a modern terminal that’s fast too
I disagree. The comments, here, give some real meta-insight into how Google is seen in the tech world: As an unreliable partner.

Google has clearly and profoundly lost the confidence of the broader tech community.

In particular, Google's history of starting and cancelling random projects helps explain why people are wondering why Google is releasing Fuschia: without some understanding of their motivations, it's impossible to trust that it'll actually have any kind of extended lifespan.

For all we know, Fuschia, Android, and ChromeOS are basically the OS equivalent of Hangouts, Meet, Allo, and Duo, in which case becoming in any way reliant on it is a huge mistake.
Now you are just putting words in my mouth. I would completely agree that 10x latency to first plot is a reasonable target (i.e. first plot in about a second, like you get in python and much faster than what you get in matlab/mathematica). And plenty of devs closer to core of Julia and the plotting libraries in it would agree.

And to be clear, I do expect my second plot to be ready in tens of milliseconds.
Oh, I agree with that, and think it's extremely necessary that we transition away fossil fuels prior to the onset of an energy famine, which seems imminent on a decadal timescale. Of course we are not going to run out of stuff to burn in only a few decades, but insofar as burning stuff requires additional air conditioning we are at or close to a tipping point.
https://github.com/master-of-zen/Av1an just required it. Not technically a library but it's on my mind.

Rocket still uses nightly
https://rocket.rs/v0.4/guide/getting-started/

Not sure about others but those are the two I think of. It's usually something that comes up when I start playing with rust and want to do X. Last few times I've done that the nightly requirement hits.

V8 reduced the start up times of WebAssembly this way but with a single pass compiler instead of an interpreter. Here's the article: https://v8.dev/blog/liftoff
It's unfortunate that the Youtube subscription is bundled with a music subscription. It inflates the price a lot if you're not interested in the latter.
Are there any truly great posthumous novels other than maybe ones that were in essentially a final polish edit state? Hemingway's True at First Light wasn't bad but by Hemingway standards pretty so so.
If the cost of the tax break is more than the salaries of the employees then it would be cheaper to just hand out the money.
I'm sure you know this, but for the benefit of other readers, pressing '$' in Magit status buffer (and likely bunch of others) pops up a buffer that lists actual commands issued to Git, so you can always check how Magit interaction maps to Git CLI commands.
> And feedback very welcome on our Payment Links product itself!

The most useful addition would be another text box (or full form) in the payment link setup to specify sending some custom text to the payer upon payment (by email or on-page or both).

For example a "Thank You", but also a "here's the private link to the thing you bought, here are the details, here is the password, here is the timeframe for shipping, here's what to do next", etc.

It is still not the kind of genetic diversity you need for a resilient ecosystem.
Cool! Was it a one man project, and if so then how long did it took to get it to a reasonably functional state?
It is nice being able to use parts of (or all) of the LispWorks editor in applications.
I'm not sure but maybe it's a database of videos and time intervals to be skipped.
I absolutely love this. Last year during the pandemic, we were using Eventbrite to process payments for events we were running. The cash we were getting was keeping our business going, until they decided to change their policy regarding pay outs (presumably due to cash flow issues of their own).

In the end we found that using Typeform with a Stripe integration was the best way to reliably and quickly transact with our customers, so I'm extremely pleased Stripe has released a no code checkout experience of their own. Really excited to use this. Thank you Stripe.
It’s ransomware, or maybe a disk wiper, and it’s striking targets in Israel
Just add "0.0.0.0 fig.io" (or whatever it is, wireshark it to find out) to your /etc/hosts
What do you mean "failed"? They're double dipping and earning twice the money. They get the YT advertising cut and the Patreon/paid adverts cut.

It's like your Cable TV or favorite newspaper charging you for subscription and then filling up the content with ads because they can earn FROM BOTH.
It’s fun to posit these ideas by going in the intuitive direction, then going in the reverse direction and seeing what happens.

I recently found this to be helpful when investigation fixed and floating point numbers. If ”1011” means 2^3 + 2^1 + 2^0, which is 11 the “1011.101” means the same thing but with an additional 2^-1 + 2^-3 aka 5/8. Negative powers seem weird to begin with but it kind of just is there to just discover, due to the symmetry.

This kind of arithmetic is far less fundamental than what you and the article are talking about — it is just representation really, in computers — but I think it is a good example of how if you can tread a path in one direction then turning around and coming back to where you started then carrying on in the other direction is a useful tool for teaching and learning.
"our social systems are doing well"

If you include pension systems, not so much. "Altersarmut" ("poverty of the old age") was not a widely used word in the 1990s, now it is a frequent topic in German media.

In many other European countries, old people live in their own properties with mortgages long paid off, so they aren't directly touched by rent increases. But Germans, for some reason, mostly like to live in rented flats and have a comparatively low home ownership rate, even in their old age. And the rents have grown quite a lot in big German cities. This means quite a squeeze for the elderly.
It's $12/month. And €12/month (= $15) in Europe.
Do you know any languages which are forward compatible?
Setup is very smooth. I'm impressed how well this integrates with my macOS. Also a bit suspicious, but unless/until there's real evidence, honestly I think it's just because of VS funding + how well the setup / integration went.

Linux and especially smaller Unixes is where tools like this are really useful. My experience with Linux is that most stuff has to be installed on the command-line, or if there is a GUI it's clunky and/or missing features. And I would consider myself moderately experienced with the macOS Terminal, but I often got stuck / slow with Linux.

I really hope they add support for IntelliJ and other integrated Terminals. I'm pretty sure I end up using those a lot more than standalones.
Linux wasn't invented at Google.
I think this is just a normal Checkout/Payment in the API, so there seems to be a webhoook for it.
Yes, uBlock origin blocks preroll and midroll ads on YouTube.
That's the promise. However, I recently set up an e-commerce website for my wife. I was actually a bit shocked to discover that whilst Stripe's offerings are like 95% of the way there, that missing 5% means you can't take advantage of said offering at all.

1. I setup Stripe Checkout for subscriptions and thought I was good to go. However, my wife wanted to take sign-ups in anticipation of a set launch date in the future i.e. don't invoice until a specific date. Nope, no can do, the "billing_cycle_anchor" property can't be set with a checkout session.

You can add a trial period, but then Stripe's Checkout UI goes out of it's way to emphasise that you're giving the customer a free trial. Which is inaccurate and the incorrect messaging would likely run us afoul of consumer law in Australia.

So I had to ditch Stripe Checkout entirely and move to Stripe Elements. Then I realised another painful edge case. You can't set "billing_cycle_anchor" more than a month away (with monthly billing). So I did end up having to set a free trial period, but at least I could hide this information so my UI wasn't misleading customers into thinking they were getting something free when they weren't.

2. You can't create a trial period for less than 48 hours. So there's an edge case I need to handle as we approach the launch date i.e. I need to use "billing_cycle_anchor" sometimes, and free trial periods other times.

3. You can't attach shipping costs to subscriptions, at least, not without manually editing invoices i.e. somewhat reinventing the subscription logic.

4. You can't attach more than one coupon to a subscription. So you end up either manually messing with invoices, or creating weird amalgamation coupons. The latter seems simple, but it's not because if you want to offer a launch discount (for the first invoice) and indefinite free shipping, this simply cannot be represented using Stripe's coupon functionality.

5. Subscriptions don't have shipping addresses, only customers do. So if a customer wants to have multiple subscriptions delivering to different addresses then Stripe's Customer Portal offering becomes fairly useless. So we need to have our own UI and storage for shipping addresses for each subscription.

Basically I found that I needed to reinvent a bunch of stuff Stripe was already doing, in order to get that extra 5%. In which case I could almost as easily go with a different payment processor.

I am very much looking forward to when Stripe has time to iron out the kinks. Because wowee it was easy to get Stripe Checkout up and running. I really thought it was smooth sailing... but then it wasn't.
It depends on your level of reductionism; if you believe in Unix-style "everything is a file" then "everything is a document, including the applications that edit other documents" isn't a massive conceptual leap.
Also https://youtu.be/_rbzlMeGToI?t=83 the "Cossack" referred in other tapes as a unit commander to whom the battery belonged pretty much says "and so? fuck them, we'll say they are spies, it's war"

It's surprising to see it being 7 years since, and there are still people from the West still dead convinced in finding "alternative facts."

There is one, and only ground truth. A battery had an order to "shoot everything that flies," and that's what they did within hours of the order.
This is also typical of mismanaged governments:

Always building new infrastructure, and not maintaining the existing one.
Are we able to create these via the API (specifically through Connect)?

I'd love to dig a bit deeper into the docs on integrating with this, but haven't managed to find them yet.
Yup. For context, YouTube/Google pulled off an utterly scummy one-two punch where they initially upped the minimum requirements to monetize videos with ads and removed that ability from anyone who didn't meet the new requirements, under the pretext that they couldn't check if smaller channels were suitable for advertising - and then readded ads to all those channels except with Google keeping 100% of the money.
I recently heard someone say "I'm not stupid enough to make money in this market", and I think it rings very true.

With the short squeeze speculation on stocks, the crypto run+crash and NFT's. The market is a very confusing place nowadays. You'd have to be bonkers to invest in these things on paper, but yet, lot's of people are making bank from it every day (and vice versa).

NFT is probably the most confusing of the bunch. I understand the technology and what it actually is, but I see little to no value in it. I strongly suspect that the vast majority of these NFT sales are just people buying from themselves to inflate perceived value or just money laundering. That said, it actually looks like this false hype has turned into real hype somehow and people are actually making money from this. NFT's are probably the closest thing we'll see to Tulip mania for long time, at least cryptocurrency has some (largely unrealized) utility and potential to become something widely used in the future.

In order to make lot's of money nowadays, you shouldn't ask yourself "What is actually going to make a profit and/or provide utility in the future?" but rather "What are all the stupid people going to pile in on next so i can get in and out before it crashes?".

Have you tried 1.6 already? I find it's substantially faster.
That would be nice, for sure. At least the Racket IDE editor supports some Emacs key bindings.
Yes: https://zapier.com/apps/stripe/integrations. Would suggest chatting with https://twitter.com/bentossell, who runs Makerpad (Zapier) and uses Payment Links!
Ahhaha... Google is basically just a large data collecting bot net
Yeah, I ultimately don’t understand the complaints about unintuitiveness: what makes a system intuitive is that you’ve internalized its conventions. macOS has its own set of conventions and they apply pretty consistently across Apple’s first-party applications and native (Cocoa) applications. I learned most of them when I switched to Macs in ‘08 and they’re now “intuitive” to me and they “just work” in most applications I use. I went through the same learning process when I was about seven on Windows and when I was like 13 on Linux.
Why would Google pay employees to not go to Apple?
Yep, all webhooks still sent as normal.
And millions of animal species occupying thousands of ecological niches are being replaced by 10 species across the planet: humans, the animals that humans eat, and the animals humans keep as pets. Even if the quantity of biomass is relatively constant, I think we can all agree that a planet with only humans and cows and chickens is a pretty bleak outcome.
Wow! This is a much needed thing on slack.
Do you have any documentation / Github repos where you build those Go implementations? I am a huge fan of the game and would be curious to see how you built it, specifically in Python / Julia.
I believe the concept of negative number doesn't arise naturally from counting, you need equations – even though we teach it all at once to kids when introducing the number line.
The A510 small core is really the big news here for me. ARM updates their small core architecture very infrequently and the small cores hold back the features of their big cores. Because of the Cortex A55, the Cortex X1 was stuck on ARMv8.2. The OS needs to be able to schedule a thread on both small and big cores, you see. And that meant ARM’s own IP missed out on security features such as pointer authentication and memory tagging, which ARM customer Apple has been shipping for years at this point.

The Cortex A55 (announced 2017) was also a very minor upgrade over the Cortex A53 (announced 2012). These small cores are truly the baseline performance of application processors in global society, powering cheap smartphones, $30 TV boxes, most IoT applications doing non-trivial general computation and educational systems like the Raspberry Pi 3. If ARM’s numbers are near the truth (real-world implementations do like to disappoint us in practice), we’re going to see a nice security and performance uplift there. Things have been stale there a while.

If anything this announcement means that in a few years time, the vast majority of application processors sold will have robust mitigations against many important classes of memory corruption exploits [1].

> I really wish Apple would just allow side loading

They used to, more or less, either using a development/test certificate or an enterprise certificate. I believe Apple cracked down after this was taken advantage of at scale by Facebook and Google, as well as developers of other apps which would typically be banned from the App store.

I probably won't reply past this, any thread on Google is a karma sink because it'd require Google users backing me up here but...the analogy completely breaks, immediately.

Hangouts _is_ Meet and Allo, if it weren't for the constant migration notices leading to constant commentary no one would be the wiser, you log into Gmail and chat just like you did 10 years ago.

Duo's a featured product, people go too far and think it's "yet another video chat app", but, they're forgetting Google has to offer both FaceTime _and_ Zoom, it has consumer and corporate customers, the corporate one doesn't need stickers and hats, the consumer one doesn't need meeting links that work in a browser.
This is the theory behind spinners over separate page loads.

>the world's most popular operating system was designed so long ago, and it seems like there is so little going on in this area.

Are you talking about Linux, or Android specifically? Either way, I don't really agree that there's "little" going on there.
I tried paying for the premium offering, but YouTube fucked it up: it wasn't simply YouTube w/o ads, it was a different set of content/recommendations.

I can't exactly define the failure, but it sure feels like there has been some failure here.
I refuse to pay money to a company that deletes the videos I like to watch over copyright issues nobody cares about. Also, paying money just makes you even more valuable to advertisers and it's not like it will make Google turn off all the spyware.
I guess creators who don't want to ads to appear in their videos need to start putting some stuff from https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6162278?hl=en to all of their videos (but be sure that they don't go against community guidelines or the adsense publisher policy).
Statements like these are bizarre - all the most prolific YouTubers are there because they earn a lot of money from YT. YouTube handles the ad deals, encoders, storage and content delivery and they get a cut of the ad revenue. They add a bit of product placement and Patreon and make a decent living.

Why the heck would they switch to Torrents which will earn them a small fraction of revenue... if any?
Not today, but a Payment Links API is coming soon. (Will shoot an email if you'd like to test it.)
Preroll and midroll ads can't be skipped. You can scrub past sponsor segments.
> Creators of videos should one their own web presence.

The problem is that nobody wants to pay for it. They want to own their own web presence but on free servers.
Sadly yes, but it only happened after seL4 Foundation[0] was established, and thus seL4 became independent from CSIRO.

The introduction of NFTs certainly spiked the price of ETH for a while but it seems the shine has worn off and the dump is in full force.
Yeah. I worked for a tech company that was acquired by Siemens. It didn't go well.
I'm responding purely to the cosmic timescale brought up in the grandparent comment. I'm saying it's pointless to obsess over cosmic entropy because it inhibits one from doing anything about current problems. While current problems are stressful, reacting to that by fretting over the ultimate pointlessness or unsustainability of existence over the lifetime of the stars/universe is an unhealthy response to stress. Self-care and activity are more effective and productive, even if those long-term uncertainties remain unresolved.
You can already bundle pre-compiled plotting code in your Julia sys-image if you want. But Julia is not a plotting tool so it would be ridiculous to optimize it just for plotting. I want ODE solvers to have less latency, should I start expecting gnuplot to have built-in ODE solvers or the official installer of Julia to have the ODE libraries pre-compiled?

Maybe this example would make it clearer: why does your argument not apply to Python? Should we expect python libraries to come pre-cached so that the first time I load `sympy` I do not need to wait for tens of seconds to have .pyc files created. Or about matlab?

Again, I am all on board with the idea that julia needs lower latency and if you look at what their devs say, they also agree with that. But expecting Julia to be super low-latency (lower-latency than python/c/matlab) for your pet task is silly.
QNX is a microkernel RTOS which supported GUIs... but BlackBerry killed off support for using it on the desktop, and BlackBerry phones died out. IDK what else is using QNX technology now.
It will be very jarring to be watching a video on spiritual exercises that will be suddenly interrupted by beer commercials.
Well, you'd get single binary deployment with no other requirements on the server using deno compile [1]. I understand there is an alternative for that with GraalVM, but Deno feels more lightweight.

Nice! However, none of this is required for this endpoint. Here's why:

1. The connect action could be replaced by doing the connection once on app startup.

2. The validation could be replaced with middleware like express-joi.

3. The stripe/email steps should be asynchronous (ex: simple crons). This way, you create the user and that's it. If Stripe is down, or the email provider is down, you still create the user. If the server restarts while someone calls the endpoint, you don't end up with a user with invalid Stripe config. You just create a user with stripeSetup=false and welcomeEmailSent=false and have some crons that every 5 seconds query for these users and do their work. Also, ensure you query for false and not "not equal to true" here as it's not efficient.
uBlock Origin works amazingly well at blocking Youtube ads. I don't know how, but it does.
I remember that years ago Bender, the 3D editor, had tutorials on YouTube without ads, but due to the volume of views they were forced to enable adsot sure if that has since changed
Now. Wasn't true then. But others who are probably more knowledgable than I are saying that older non-copyrighted work inherited the modern Berne regime automatically.
