As somebody without any experience in that field: When you say "codebase", what is that? Is it code describing circuit blocks (e.g. an ALU) that is reused in different projects or is it code for the tools that you use? (in-house tools, plugins for commercial tools, etc.)

>I always give the rule of thumb "avoid operations on individual elements, but things operating on hundreds+ elements should be fine". And the reason isn't as much just "Python is slow" but the overhead of the tensor objects.

That's just not possible in a lot of cases, like when defining a large nonlinear ODE which is precisely described by the actions of individual elements. Indeed, it's not the ML case, but it is a case where PyTorch's assumptions are too strong.
The Tesla story had two sides - Tesla was aware about the high standards that would be applied to their factory, but somehow thought "we're Tesla so they'll create all kinds of exceptions for us if we pay the right politicians".
Turns out not every country is as corrupt as Tesla's home country.
I've been using a Pi for some similar timers, and given the price-point, there's a lot to be said for them. The most relevant example here would be one that reads my calendar (ical over http) and only fires on days I'm working. "Doesn't fire when I'm in a meeting" wouldn't be a huge stretch either. Or at home, "doesn't fire if the lights are turned off" would stop the desk bouncing around when I'm not working.

I'm not sure NTP over wifi is a big deal either. The problem space here isn't millisecond accuracy, it's regaining time after a power-off, as the pi lacks an RTC.
It's not just archivebot doing it? Can you give an example?

I assume Tesla was just trying to be cheap. As soon as the water supplier said Teslas expected demand (372 m³ per hour) wouldn't be possible, the demand suddenly shrank to 243 m³ per hour. So my guess is that Tesla tried to reduce capex by employing more wasteful water usage but now has to work more efficiently. https://www.quarks.de/umwelt/wie-problematisch-ist-der-bau-v...
As an American programmer that moved to the EU, I can say for sure there's no reason to move here if you want to stack up cash. Do it for the low stress living and quality of life. Don't expect to move back home with a fat bank account.
I didn't say the issue was necessarily on the street. My partner gets frustrated that she can't open the windows, because street smoke on evenings wafts straight into our living room and gives her coughing fits. Is your suggestion that we should never open the windows in our own house?

Keep in mind that for a high-profile engineer or lead who expects to make 400k at least per year, the company would actually have to pay him 800k to make that much net. Labor cost in Germany is sky high.
That times a thousand is not insignificant.
No, just a joke ...
In any other sport, being ahead of the favourite by a wide margin for much of a race, then crossing the finishing line so far ahead that the second-place athlete isn't even in view, would be called a "resounding victory" rather than "lucky"

What's the Tesla story?

They are building a factory as fast as possible, pushing the authorities to work as fast as possible and until now they only had minor difficulties which each other, considering how hard Tesla is pushing and how "slow" German bureaucracy is.
Somewhere north of 4Bn people live in cities. The vast majority of which are nowhere near the utopia hinted at. Perhaps somewhere on the order of 100-200M people live in sufficiently dense and modern cities that are even capable of envisioning a path towards zero powered personal transportation.

In addition, roughly 4Bn people who do not live in cities. Densely populated and well funded or otherwise. So no, even if we are to consider only the first half of the population, your assertion does not hold in any meaningful sense.

If the goal is to get rid of powered personal transport then it begs the question "why?". Is this really a useful goal? What problem are we really trying to solve? For half the human population it makes very little sense, which means that adopting it as a sort of universal solution to all problems is a bit silly.

I can recommend reading Hans Rosling's "Factfulness" for some perspective. Because the book talks a lot about perspective and why most people in the richest part of the world tend to have a very hard time understanding what it means to be in the various wealth segments. In particular it bears thinking about what access to efficient transport means in terms of quality of life.

First you need to understand the numbers, then you need to focus on solutions. And then change can happen. The thread ancestor makes no effort to even look in this direction.

> Sports competition isnt something with intrinsic value that can exist in a vacuum. If the audience desires certain types of show, they get it, or the competition makes no money and cannot continue.

That's exactly what is wrong with capitalism: somehow money-making is at the forefront of the concerns of every human activity, to the point that athletes may not be able to choose their own clothing.

So, public function try_join accepts two futures, which my return <AR>esult and <BR>esult or <E>rror, and returns future which will return tupple with (<AR>, <BR>) or <E>rror.
It's the German state broadcasting agency producing content in many languages for Germans abroad and an international audience. For anti-propaganda reasons they are not allowed to broadcast in Germany. This is in contrast with the German public broadcasting agencies which have a compulsory fee, but are not directly paid by the state. DW have some really good and interesting reporting off the mainstream but should be consumed with care as they are effectively controlled by the German state. Recently they are set to become a sort of counter to Russia Today meant to counter fake news. A friend of mine works at DW and frequently rants about higher-ups revising or canceling reporting because it doesn't fit the desired angle.

I think the main issue is the current political discourse going for the “anti” approaches. Constantly calling for less consumption, less personal freedom, etc. All one hears is less less less in the name of illy and broadly defined causes such as “the environment”.

This even showed with the global response yo the corona crisis. Les freedom of movement, less outdoor activities, less hospital occupation instead of more. More treatments options, etc.
I think the government considers semiconductors a key industry to compete with china and I believe that matters. American electric car manufacturers on the other hand are a threat to germany's combustion obsessed car industry. I also think that Elon runs his companies in an unconventional way that maybe doesn‘t fly with german bureaucrats. TSMC will do things by the book and the saxonian government will welcome them with open arms. They won‘t see any of the local government trouble that Tesla had in Dresden.
Youtube is surprisingly great for this, has a "how to pronounce" video for just about every name going. (Usually more than one, so you can verify).
Both your hypotheses are pretty far fetched. Your observations are anecdotal and shouldn't lead to such bold claims.

> I regularly come across online comments that are borderline word salad

If this was an actual trend, which I wouldn't want to assume, don't you think there are simpler explanations to this? I'd immediately come up with two:

- The internet has gotten way more accessible (+ most of the new users aren't native english speaker)

- ML Bots
This raise a question, why weren't they using encryption on their qcow2 volumes ?
Compile/link times are definitely a discussion topic. Here's some quick tips:

* Incremental compilation helps locally, not so much in CI, unless you save/restore the whole cache which gets large quickly and evicting the out-of-date objects is non-trivial.
* In CI, sccache helps, but not as much as I'd like: there's a bunch of things that are non-cacheable, notably crates that pull in & compile C/C++ code (I'd trade 2 c-bindings crates against 12 Rust-only crates any day for that reason alone)
* Splitting stuff across different crates helps parallelizing the build (and caching it better), which may be one of the reasons some projects end up having "1000 dependencies" (although I've rarely seen upwards of 600)
* For incremental builds, linking does become the bottleneck. Full LTO is especially slow, Thin LTO is better. Switching to LLD improves thing. I'm hopeful that mold will improve things some more.
* Re multiple PRs: thankfully crate families tend to live in the same repository, so fixing something across both tracing / tracing-subscriber could be a single PR, for example.

I wish the Rust community invested more in build caching, but even with the current state of things, there's often steps you can take to make things better.

It's handled by the GDPR. Companies are forced to report a leak to the authorities and the max. penalties are very high.
No. The point was to draw a line between the countries who respect humans rights and are willing to be judged and punished when they don't and the countries that did not.

Of course China and KSA would never join. And that would give other countries a clear and objective criterion to apply sanctions and international pressure.

Instead, judging what sanction a country deserves is an arbitrary exercise of executive power.

North Korea, China, KSA, are easy cases, but what do you know of Moldova? Of Hungary? Of Malaysia? Knowing that a country is held to some international standards judged independently would be a huge progress for human rights globally.

Where to put spaces in Japanese if Japanese should be written with spaces is a trivial and solved problem. Texts intended for children in full hiragana or old video game texts in full hiragana typically include spaces for ease of reading and they agree on where to put them.

I don't understand the common argument that Japanese has no concept of “words”; it is true that Japanese orthography lacks them, but Japanese speakers intuitively agree on where spaces should be put.

I think the real cause of this might simply be that in romanization, it is common to see spaces put where they shouldn't, and that on one end a common way to romanize contrasts with what feels intuitive makes people think that it's a difficult issue with no easy answer, but there is a very easy and solved answer, one that's simply different from the most common form of romanizing outside of linguistic textbooks.

Having said hat, they are no indication for typing speed, but neither are words in English since there can be long and short words too but probably more extreme in Japanese as a sentence that merely consists of a single very long verb would be considered “one word” under this scheme, as that's how it is pronounced prosodically.

<Women>: Does incredible things, that typically men are way better at (math and sports) and: She even does 2 of them, at the same time and to the very best. Incredible. Bravo!

How plausible/believable. And what an adorable women and a role model for other girls. And we need so many more female role models to inspire as many young girls as possible (ideally: All of them).

Having kids and a family (with a man,... a protector?!) is really lame and needs to be avoided. Top notch careers are much more important. I mean: Who doesn't want to be remembered by the random name that was given to you - First name by your parents, last name by people in the middle ages struggling to keep people apart during rapid population growth. I feel very inspired now.

Thank you journalist (w/m/d) for writing this article.

It is clear that men are all grabbing for these enviable positions just for the sake of it (and not as a means for anything else) and we need to get women there, too.
> and I always feel bad for not knowing how to start pronouncing their names

No worries, give it your best approximation and if it's way off or if someone cares a bit too much they will correct you, use the corrected version since then and you're golden.

We know it may be hard, no problem whatsoever and no one cares, don't worry about it one bit and definitely don't feel bad about it. I think poles actually prefer if you say their name in 'english way' rather than super-correctly in polish because it sounds more natural instead of being suddenly jerked back into polish for a millisecond and then back into english. Just remember the 'w'->'v' and you will get a lot of street cred for free
I don't know what century and which country are you referring to but is well known that inequalities have been growing lately in Europe in many countries (especially the south European countries)

Definitely is not as high as some countries in Asia. But while in Asia they're working to reduce inequalities in Europe it's mainly increasing (from 2000 onwards, with the spike after 2009)
Valtio, Simple asynchroneous react state management
I think you have to understand that "international English" is not the same as English. We have the same thing in France where lots of people come to study from other countries where they speak French, and their French is a little different. I'm not going to waste anyone's time on correcting someone because they said "le table" and not "la table". Same thing with the pronunciation. I can understand them, they can understand me, and that's what matters. That's the "price" of having a huge influence in the world.
>But federal regulation says it does.

Yes. Regulation can be BS too.
> Being anti smoking worked because there was no need for a replacement

Assuming it is true, is vaping a part of "smoking", among other replacements such as nicotine gums and whatnot?

I read a couple of books on addiction. All of them say that you do need to find a replacement, a healthier one.
Go visit Japan, South Korea, Germany.

I am the first one to be vocal of US imperialism, but you can't deny that it is US influence that caused several modern countries to be democratic.
Trust should never be a binary value anyway, so in epistemological terms Sanger is right, but in a useless sense.
If you speak any non-English language, you will know that this obsession with getting English-language speakers to pronounce foreign words "correctly" is unique. No speaker of any other language in the world even tries to pronounce foreign words like foreigners do, nor are they expected to.

Just pronounce it the way it's spelled, and if you're speaking English, that is the correct way. Join me in my militant quest to aggressively redefine what it means to "correctly" pronounce foreign words in English: go ahead and proudly say "g'nock-chi" for gnocchi and "buy frost" when you mean the Bifrost Bridge.

If someone gives you a hard time, smirk at them for being the unsophisticated provincial they are. "When I speak Japanese, I will say Kyoto with only two syllables, even accent on each. When I speak English, I shall proudly, without shame, pronounce it KEE-oh-toe. When I speak Dutch, I will pronounce Van Gogh with a soft consonant at the end. While speaking English, it shall remain van go."
You seem to think "peer review" is something magical and absolutely necessary for science, when in fact all it does is give your peers and grant rivals heads up on what you are publishing/researching so they can decide if they want to A) allow you to publish B) try and publish their research before you C) just veto your paper and claim it is not good.
Patents do not apply to academic research, do they? Amateurs can also post some VHDL on github without fear of retribution, so still strange.

For commercial application, if the ideas are good, and the patents valid, someone could just license them. Or are they sitting on an inbox full of desperate licensing requests that they're ghosting while whining they can't get funding?
Quite dystopian.

Equal opportunity is a universal value that everyone can agree to strive for.

Equalized outcomes is a dystopian nightmare (equity).

The move to blur the lines between these two concepts is disturbing.
Thanks for reply. Would it be perceive as inflexibility if I want to stick to Java because there is so much more I am yet to learn in Java ecosystem? Also is it not better to hire experience Python developer if a company's technology stack is Python and not Java centric?
Pelmodoro – a Pomodoro app built with Elm
Which is funny, because pronouncing it correctly doesn't cause any confusion. I've been learning Japanese for like 10-15 years now and that has changed my pronunciation of Tokyo, and nobody is confused when I say it correctly. They never even try to correct their pronunciation, but I take that as further evidence that they don't even hear anything different.
> Telling people they are victims of more powerful forces beyond their individual control.

First, being victim of forces beyond their control is true for almost everyone.

Secondly, it's probably more healthy for people to not understand or believe it.
You get some local activism against individual factories, but generally Germany is huge in building specialized industry and they manage to push companies to clean things up. For me that's all a win.

You can find giant chemical and manufacturing plants all across Germany.

Thinking Germany is problematic is a very narrow worldview, in most countries you have huge political/corruption/business continuity risks, from unsteady electricity to broken roads to terror threats - Germany is a safe and stable bet.

While perhaps not totally helpful, after 25 years of playing with "alternative" operation systems, I would never recommend using a laptop for the purpose.

A spare desktop PC have always been of more value to me, when playing around with lesser used operating systems. Hardware and drivers just work better. A wired ethernet connection is also recommended.

If you don't have the space for a PC, I'll recommend getting an older Intel NUC.
Trade sanction ARE effective and are arguably much more effective than military operations at changing a country's behavior. The main negotiation leverage in talks with Donbass forces or Iran government is the suspension or extension of sanctions. It made Iraq and Libya abandon their WMD programs. Iraq's invasion, on the other hand justified North Korea in not abandoning theirs.

Germany has dozens of chip manufacturers and great engineering workforce. Certainly much better than UK. Have not seen any wupte about Tesla wanting to pull out, but the factory is already half operational so seems most issues are resolved. Once located it should also be easier to do this kind of projects, but planting a new huge factory is always a challenge.
Isn't this built on rasterio? I haven't used terracotta or rasterio, but your comment sounded like you compared them.
Dlib, when I used it for work, was a real pleasure to use. Some of its algorithms are actually state-of-the-art compared to other (often better known) open-source implementations. I would even say some of the advantages my team had over our competitors were partly due to our deeper understanding of the library ecosystem and using libraries like dlib instead of more popular default choices.

I wonder if it is indeed a difference in base language, or just a difference of exposure. I assume that, even without "trying", almost every Italian has more exposure to English than English speakers have to Italian.
