Surely you've seen the improvement over the last 5-6 years from machine learning in all the interpretation toolsets. The last place I worked we internally had a seismic inversion tool that blew all the commercial suites out the water. I'm currently contracting for an AI/ML service company currently that has a synthetic welllog tool that is can apparently beat the pants off actual well logging tools for a fraction of the cost (though I'm not a geologist or petrophysicist so I can't personally verify this.)

I think the problem is more the media and advertisers likes to paint the picture of a magical AI tool which will instantly solve all your problems and do all the work instead of a fulcrum to make doing the actual work significantly easier.
I know flipping burgers is the colloquial term, but Mcdonalds hasn't been flipping burgers for more than 20 years. They cook their burgers in heated clamshells, which cook both sides of the burgers at once. Half the cook time, no flipping required.
If the commercial services aren't distributing ffmpeg, for instance they are running on their own servers, then they are only using, but not distributing ffmpeg, and aren't under an obligation to share source code.

Since you are distributing ffmpeg (as a wasm module), you are under obligations to give access to source code that do not apply to services that merely use ffmpeg within their own organization (even if for a service provided to third parties).

One typical work around for distribution of ffmpeg in a product is to simply use a standalone ffmpeg executable and provide all the source to the ffmpeg executable.

A wasm module is more akin to a library than a standalone executable and likely under stronger obligations. If you are only using LGPL code (it depends on how you compiled ffmpeg [See https://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html -- "Compile FFmpeg without "--enable-gpl" and without "--enable-nonfree" ), giving access to only the ffmpeg code you used to build the module (and any modifications) would likely suffice for the source code obligation. If you are including any GPL code (because you didn't compile with the options needed to ensure only LGPL code is used), your entire project likely falls under GPL and you would probably need to share the source for the entire project to be compliant.

If another service is using ffmpeg as a wasm without providing a means of accessing the source code (to the wasm module if only using LGPL code, or the entire project if using any GPL code), they (too) are likely in violation of the ffmpeg license copyright and could be sued. Companies and projects can fly under the radar for some time before this happens, but it doesn't mean they are operating legally and will never be sued.

It is even weirder in French.

We have the word "prochain" which means "next. It comes from the word "proche", which means "close". In other words, "vendredi prochain" means "the nearest Friday".

Unfortunately, depending on regions and oral tradition, ""vendredi prochain" can be understood as "the nearest Friday" or "the Friday next week" (same issue as in English, though we do have a proper interpretation).

So French would not be French if we haven't invented a solution to that: "vendredi en huit", which literally means "Friday in eight" = "the first Friday after 8 days from now". This guarantees that this is going to be "Friday next week".

This does not solve the issue of "vendredi prochain" for those who understand it the wrong way, but then we have "Friday the first to come, you know in three days, not the one after the week-end".
Saying they need some "personal responsibility" and not acknowledging that the odds are stacked against part-time minimum wage workers is disingenuous.

If you look at the who the poor are - it's virtually all part-time minimum wage workers. It's disproportionately women of color with children. A lot of these kids were born when these women were very young, if not girls. Most of these people were born into poverty AND live in areas with terrible public education AND the sixteen states where minimum wage is the lowest federal minimum...

Further, the majority of small businesses are not hiring 1 or 2 Ivy League educated MBAs they pay $250k per year. They're disproportionately hiring disenfranchised workers from the above ground.

Granted, these small businesses generally aren't the 4-hour work week Tim was talking about.

No internet. Television was in its infancy (meaning few even had a television). There were no "24-hour news channels" anywhere. News arrived via newspaper, film short before a movie in a movie theater, or a brief "news update" on a radio station. Information flowed (worldwide) at a snails pace as compared to how quickly we learn of some happening on the other side of the globe today.

I don't really notice these visual details, but I appreciate the explanations behind them, and I find the history of the process and the integration of technology interesting.

On a somewhat related note, I watched this film last week with my children (3,7,11) and I thought it was really great. Not that it was my first time seeing it, but my first time as an adult. I don't think it was rose-colored glasses, but I was just genuinely impressed by the story, voice acting (especially), animation, and the whole.
Ok, but you'd hope there's some form of access control that stops someone just overwriting the canonical source with their own version. That's the same as the maintainer having to accept changes.

If there isn't, and anyone can write straight to the source, then good luck to anyone using that package because it's probably not very safe.

Trump calls Bitcoin a scam against the dollar
There's a graph, 2/3 down the article. It shows how the Obama admin went after whistleblowers, charging more with espionage than every previous PotUS.

Having that acknowledged (if not really addressed) in the article, feels like a tiny bit of press-progress. It's some improvement over 2009-2016, where Obama's War On Whistleblowers was covered as minimally as possible (eg: almost entirely ignored).

The principle in play here: If voters and news orgs fail to hold a reasonable PotUS accountable, it's a gift of power to the unreasonable ones that follow.

disclaimer: this isn't an 'Obama sucks' post. It's an 'Obama was awful about accountability' and the press sucked for giving that a pass - post.

I feel personally attacked by it because you literally made a personal attack and said its the same as racial segregation, lol.

Women-only sports is an example of a women-only space. Maybe that's one reason why someone might oppose the Equality Act (besides just hating trans people and homosexuals)? :)

I am saying you're not able to bully me with this stupid tactic of shaming and shutting down debate instead of debating. That's why I'm not agreeing with you and told you to fuck off when you called me the same as a racist. But doing what you're doing is what bullies and weak people with weak arguments try to do.

It is literally a mental illness to be afflicted with though? It's obviously mental turmoil if you felt like your brain and body did not align in the same gender. The crux of the issue is that you seem to conflate me saying something like this with me also (not) saying "trans people are bad and subhuman". People who are depressed have a mental illness. It's normal, and they're not bad for it. It just happens. I fully expect you to be OUTRAGED by my comment, even though I really don't think it's that outrageous and I have no ill will towards trans people whatsoever. Cue comments such as "do you actually know any trans/black/gay people!?" Yes, actually. Next. You don't win an argument by seeming like you're more compassionate because I really don't think you are.

> Equivocation about purity, referential transparency, mutability, side effects etc. is not very interesting.

It's what the current discussion is about, since I explained why I explicitly didn't make a statement about immutability being required for FP.

> The operative point is that, in Haskell, firstly

> x = expression

> y = expression

> ...

> is the same as

> x = expression

> y = x

> ...

Sure but that's the pure part of a program.

x <- expression
y <- expression

is not generally the same as

x <- expression
let y = x in ...

and I pointed out that you can have such a program (i.e. with mutability) inside a function that is pure to the outside.

The interesting feature of Haskell / Monads is that you can have mutability be both inside and around pure expressions (impure code making use of pure code and then impure code again inside the implementation of pure code). Not everything in a Haskell program needs to be pure. Of course, pure expressions are good since they are easier to reason about. Also, they are the core idea of FP as I mentioned earlier. But, I want to avoid people taking away the impression that you then never can use mutable data structures, and that's why in my original comment I didn't make a statement about immutability being required for functional programming.

Functional programming has a core idea and that is pure expressions (referential transparency), and then features to help increase the area of programs which are pure expressions and increase the confidence / safety of them being so. With regards to that confidence, Haskell goes far (there's still unsafePerformIO (and non-total functions) so it's not completely perfect). And I'm not disputing that when I say that it still is and always was called functional programming when there were no language-provided features to give that confidence, or only "half-assed" ones if one wants to call them that. Or only culture and convention. My point in the whole discussion is to explain why functional programming doesn't mean the same thing for everyone, and how it can both be that @slver says "there's no clear definition of FP" and that there is at the same time. There is a clear definition for referential transparency, which is the core idea of FP. But the term FP also encompasses various approaches and tools with varying qualities to enable that core idea, and it's here where there's no clear definition.
Theirs does sound like a good plan (won't find that in every state) but they're also relatively poor and receiving a large subsidy to cover most of the monthly premium.

> Screw over your day-job if you have one

The example I remember from the book is Ferriss would make sales calls in the morning and the late afternoon, because those were the times when people would actually be willing to make deals, and the calls the rest of the day were a waste. And (according to him) he made more sales than most of the sales team.

Too many jobs are managed as "ass time in seat" vs any real measure of productivity.
I worked as a state security guard while I was going to school.

It was a good gig because I could get all my homework done while working, and state law said my pay needed to be equal to full time employees.

My boss took his job very serious. He got the state to send us to security seminars.

This was the late 80's and what suprised me the most is whom steals, or commits financial fraud.

At least back then most loss in retail was committed by management. The higher up the tree, the more they stole be it cash, or merchandise. The employees, and customers stole, but the big thefts were usually committed by long term trusted management types.

The instructor said, employees/owners usually don't question management, and they have more opportunities alone, with no one watching. He also said owners were notorious for stealing their stuff, and writing it off, or claiming it as a loss through their insurance company.

He said, this is a dirty secret, that most organizations don't want leaked. It's much easier to blame the homeless, or gangs on theft.

I imagine that has changed with the proliferation of cameras everywhere, but when I gear about large scale theft in a corporation, I automatically look at those in command of the employeees.

My local Goodwill had gone through three store managers in a row for embezzlement. This was years ago though. Goodwill never prosecutes employees because they don't want to tarnish their image.
The thing should be fixable without access to personal data, right? How hard can it be.
For me it was working on a part-time hobby while working full time, and that eventually turned into a full-time business. So I didn't need any support or connections or anything like that. I never had any funding.
My current company delocalized some support and part of the ci/CD tool chain to Bangalore. Formed a local to be the point of contact (supplementary french lessons, Kube/openShift/Jenkins formation). He left after being formed and now have a french salary, in France, for a small company. That's why you pay them at least 2/3 of the price home.

I once tried checking in a MacBook Air without SSD once at a 3rd-party authorized repair center, and they flat out refused to repair once they noticed the SSD was missing, and said Apple would "blacklist" me from any future repair.

I communicated this to Apple and while Apple apologized profusely to me, and even paid for the new battery and repair (I didn't ask for it, it was out of warranty for 5 years), but I still never trusted third-party repairers again... that put off buying new Apple stuff until I became able to move to a place with an Apple Store.

I'm happy to say however that I never had this problem going to the Apple Store in Berlin, but not everyone lives in a big city with one of those.

I know everyone has a story, here, but I knew several survivors when I was younger. The "general" answer is that the few that survived were highly exceptional — they Nazi machine wasn't perfect.

One of the survivors I knew was executed twice. He said "it didn't catch".

Snow White and Sleeping Beauty are from an era of animation master pieces. The article describe the steps to make such films and how labor intensive it was. Hand drawn and hand painted, the difference in quality is remarkable compared to today's disposable computer-generated animation. In many ways, a lost art form, most likely there will never be another film produced in such a manner.
> Consider for example needing to make a change to a view but your existing view has tons of data access logic embedded right in it.

You can separate these out. Treat public functions from your data/business logic layer as if they were an API in terms of organization. Your views shouldn't be doing any logic, they should be dumb. Overall, we've found switching to a MVC framework for new applications (React/Express -> Phoenix) has increased productivity a lot, especially with a tiny team.

Then again, I'm pretty green, so if there are cases where that kind of separation isn't possible, please let me know!
History Is Cancelled
You are right. The ways in which it is terrible are obvious, but they have not been fixed. That suggests architectural or legal problems (likely in some song data/song license sync and prefetch model).

Spotify isn't really a song player. It is a song license management system with arbitrary playlists referencing song data whose licensing may change.

You want to access the same data under the same license. Spotify isn't sure the license hasn't changed since it last started streaming to you.

The misery of such a system is exacerbated by buggy client software.

Maybe if the Spotify API was more like the Stripe of music licensing systems, you'd sideload your own client.
