That is a strange thing to be bothered by. Are you similarly unimpressed by a $400M lottery jackpot, since CPUs can execute billions of instructions per second?

The random idiom I got was:

> Idiom #137 Check if string contains only digits

> Set boolean b to true if string s contains only characters in range '0'..'9', false otherwise.

char b = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < strlen(s); i++) {
if (! (b = (s[i] >= '0' && s[i] <= '9'))) break;
}

I appreciate the funny assignment-and-test-and-early-break in one (although I'd hardly say it's idiomatic), but I could do without the quadratic strlen().
That’s entirely on Google and it pisses me off. It goes beyond squabbles as Google has repeatedly dealt in bad faith with Sonos to the detriment of the consumer. I still remember seeing Sonos demoing both Alexa and Google active on one speaker and also remember the hissy fit Google threw and the fallout when they withdrew from the project. It took two years for Google to come back to the table and the result is the intentionally crippled implementation that you see today

That's the point, right? Securitization serves individual short-term interest, at the cost of stability of the system. We saw that in 2008, and even then the politically connected players made out like bandits.
Mobile carriers gets hacked day by day. At least in western countries it's considered a scandal compared corrupted countries like those in Eastern Europe for example, where they get hacked and it's covered up quickly using political influence.

> degrade very rapidly

E-Ink displays were declared having a lifespan of 10 million switches per dot: you would have to do a study about how often the average pixel is changed, but if that value were 5s, the lifespan would be "five years of short week 9-to-5" - that is not bad.

I am not sure if A2 mode or Greyscale Update with frequent dot switching is a stress that makes the dots degrade faster (not simply "decrease the life count going towards the max", but "decreasing the max"). I supposed not dramatically.
Text or voice. For voice you need another model. But I watched the demos and I can't wait for my invite. It's even better than GPT3 because this time there is a direct application of the model.

I was surprised about how OpenAI sees it: a model learning code as recipes for solving problems. Code is much more exact than natural language, the mix of both is the main advantage.

The TypeScript example does feel a little weird. I've used this library successfully with React + TypeScript with the following pattern:

const mesh = useRef<THREE.Mesh>(null); // mesh has type RefObject<THREE.Mesh | null>
...
useFrame((): void => {
if (mesh.current != null) {
mesh.current.rotation.x += 0.01;
}
});
...
return <mesh ref={mesh} ... />

As others have mentioned, the ref will typically attach by the time a `useEffect` hook is called, but for safety it's nice to have the null check.
If your goal was to make a worse version of android, that would be a smart play.

But mobile linux can be more than a dumbed down mobile OS. Writing apps in this way makes it capable of "convergence", which means it can run a full desktop OS.

On some people's phones IPv4 addresses can't be reached. Their carrier doesn't bother moving IPv4 over a network that doesn't need IPv4. It does translation at the edge, and the iPhone is OK with that.

Apple's requirement is that even though you know your server is definitely 10.20.30.40† on the public network, and you hate IPv6 you must not hard code 10.20.30.40 inside the app and ship that to the App Store.

Once you reluctantly change it to a DNS name ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example that resolves to 10.20.30.40 - Apple allows that.

Because now when your app is used on some IPv6-only carrier network, the carrier goes "ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example ?" and it gets 10.20.30.40 and it says that's an IPv4 address, don't use those around here, and it adds a translator step, it gives the phone an IPv6 address for ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example and the phone connects to that address, which is a translator that connects to 10.20.30.40 on the IPv4 Internet.

This stuff happens all the time and you don't notice. But if Apple allowed app vendors to just scribble IPv4 addresses inside their app software it would break.

† No that isn't a public IP address. It's an example.
I'm in the middle of a transaction with Carvana, so I guess in some ways I'm somewhat surprised by this.... sure it would have been easier to have them as the loan provider, but their rate was more than double what I was able to find elsewhere. Would be very interesting to know if the buyers who are accepting their financing are doing it because its the only option available. Because I went with outside financing, the transaction has definitely been a longer and more complicated process than I expected, but Carvana has overall been responsive and good to work with. Their customer-facing site and app were a better experience than their competitors. That said, it's clear there are aspects of their back office that aren't as polished as the store window makes it appear.
Yeah I was just sticking with events in my lifetime, I just wasn't alive much for Vietnam, and wasn't very concerned with politics right after I was born.

His theories are about 'advanced civilizations' that build everything, and somehow disappeared, and the humans that came later just found the knowledge ready... etc. etc.

Basically a bunch of crap without any evidence. If it was an advanced civilization, they would have left plenty of tools and artifacts behind, but they didn't. The only evidence he mentions how Goebli Teppe or the Sphynx, were so extraordinary, that they could only be build by some advanced civilization. Yet, we have no proof of what he says whatsover.

Stonehedge, Mayan pyramids, Atlantis, etc.. are all been mixed in these types of imaginations.

The fact is that early humans were not stupid savages/cavemen, and civilizations have gone though booms and busts cycles even in this era. But that doesn't mean that there was some kind of fantastic civilization that we don't know about. Fact is that when in good times, where food is plentiful, people like to build stuff, for fun, religion, etc...

In bad times we did build either walls for defense, or just raided other people for resources.

Today's crazy buildings are stadiums, large concert/opera halls, etc... which are not needed at all for basic survival yet we crave them and are willing to spend lots of resources for them.
so, building stuff, is ingrained in us, and the neolithic people were just like us in this desire.

Also, here is a clear evidence of how could people move large amount of rock, with just ropes and primitive materials. (the wheel was not invented yet at the time).

A simple imagination, the island had a festival type of routine, where every 4 years they would build one these and celebrate.... which is easy to do, even for a small population.

Over 40 years you'd have 10 of them in the Island. Over 400 years, you could have 100s..... A simple ritual for fun, for religion, for superstition, to bring the community together, it builds large things bit by bit over time.

As they say, Rome was not build in one day. Many of these monuments or buildings took decades to build. But when we find them, it is always amazing to us as we see the finished product of centuries of work.
If you define "Linux Phone" as including AOSP (android) then the term is basically meaningless since by that definition we have had linux phones for 15+ years.

I was wondering that too, but there aren't that many common cloud provider that has 96 vCPU offering.

I am also wondering on 144 Workers, on 96 vCPU which is not 96 CPU Core but 96 CPU thread. So effectively 144 Workers on 48 CPU Core possibly running at sub 3Ghz Clock Speed. But it seems they got it to work out in the end. ( May be at the expense of latency )
The EU knows how to screw with foreign regimes just fine. They lead the way in Libya and weren't holding any punches in Syria. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

For example, France is extremely involved in African affairs and likes to act as a King maker there, in such a blatantly colonial way that it puts US imperialism to shame. The only difference is the world wide focus on American affairs... and maybe also because of the ingrained belief in France that Africa ought to be their own backyard ("Francafrique"). so it's okay when they do it, meaning there's way less internal oppostion to French interventionism (in Africa). Contrast that with the huge, bi partisan anti foreign interventionism voting block that has emerged in the US.

Carvana puts a ridiculous mark-up on used cars - I'm talking several thousand more then the same car brand NEW in some cases. Further their inspection process leaves a lot to be desired, and best practice is to take the car for inspection after receiving it for how often they "miss" things.

It just does not make sense to throw thousands of dollars away to save a couple hours at a dealership.

I notice that you haven't answered my explicit questions to you in the comment you're replying to, which makes me wonder if you're trying to play some kind of mind game with me. I will repeat them: Did I misunderstand your unstated premise? If that wasn't your unstated premise, then how was your comment relevant to my original comment?

Moreover, you seem to be attempting to rebut the proposition "that Google’s storytelling was bad", as if that were something I had said, when in fact I specifically disclaimed that interpretation in the comment you're ostensibly replying to: "I definitely don't mean to deprecate Google's founders or imply that they were mediocre at storytelling to investors or didn't spend a lot of time on it." Then, you summarized my comment entirely incorrectly as "just be Google, then you won’t need Storytelling (maybe, because maybe they were pretty good at it after all)".

I cannot tell if you are astoundingly incompetent at reading or intentionally lying about what I'm saying, which would make you astoundingly dishonest.
It's mediocre. Sometimes it's plain wrong, sometimes right but not exact and so on.
I’ve analyzed the flu stats myself and the lower prevalence this year is not on its own compelling evidence that the Covid stats are fraudulent. I’m honestly curious if there is anything substantial to support the claim that there is widespread fraud that goes beyond a general mistrust of the government, media, medical establishment, whatever.
The answer to the puzzle is in the comments on that page (Prof. Baez gives your argument in one of them, too).

It would be interesting knowing why there are roughly six clusters of defects. The figure seems to technically have seven clusters, but it seems plausible that low-energy configurations tend to have at most six.

One point of view is that in a triangulation, the degree d of a vertex corresponds to something like the curvature there, where the curvature is concentrated into a cone angle of 60 * d. The total cone angle defect (the sum of 360 - 60 * d over all vertices) is 720 degrees for a sphere, either by Euler characteristic or Gauss-Bonnet, so if the only vertex degrees you see are 5 and 6, there are exactly 12 vertices of degree 5. So, fancifully, it seems like the potential function makes the space "want" to be flat (i.e., have vertices of degree 6 for cone angle defect of 0), so it seems plausible that these defects, some kind of fundamental particle of curvature, would "want" to be concentrated in packets of total-defect-60-degrees, and that these would "want" to be relatively far apart from one another.
Maybe if you hate yourself.
Hi jabo! Thank you very much. That is very kind of you. It's always difficult to establish this kind of matrix when you can't necessarily know all the technical details and features with that level of details you wanted to emphasize.

The threat model is different, we really do have to lock down phones a bit more because they're used for user identification (but I think not to the draconian level Google and Apple do).

The result of not using AOSP is having to reimplement stuff, and it's not like this ecosystem has a lot of free labour just waiting around. Yes, Google would have diverged, but so would the community. If you're already willing to go for a Linux phone, compatibility probably isn't your main concern.

I still wish them luck. With the way Apple and Google are going, there may be no other choice eventually.

No; that's not the test in question. The tweet I started the conversation with [0] shows a bunch of cubes, not text geometry. It's not the text geometry test. It's just creating and manipulating a bunch of cubes. Unfortunately, it was removed from the react-three-fiber examples, so it can't be easily run unless you check out an old version of the repo. It contains two switches, one for React vs. Zustand, and the other for Concurrency On vs. Off [1]. The tweet is talking about the concurrency mode.

I'm very familiar with React 18 concurrency, and gave my detailed analysis of it. The documentation you linked even confirms my analysis of it deferring work across frames:

> it can potentially defer load and heavy tasks

I've already given my feedback about that approach. I heavily suspect the overhead here is all React's reconciler / differ, as Svelte, which has no scheduler, performs similarly to the concurrent React mode[2].

Note that I wrote "in any first world country". I'm sorry if your country does not qualify as such. Then the best solution is to keep paying for bottled water, or to move.

I'm not being flippant here. If, on a general basis, you can't trust the country where you live to provide you with access to clean drinking water, then you have literally failed the UN's Sustainable Development Goal no. 6: "By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all." This is something that every nation on earth aims to achieve during this decade.
we're running in circles unfortunately and i've explained where the test you're referring to comes from and what it meant. i've posted the real test and if you want, engage in it.

const font = await new Promise((res) => new THREE.FontLoader().load("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/drcmda/scheduler-test/master/public/Inter%20UI_Bold.json", res))
console.time("test")
for (let i = 0; i < 510; i++) {
new THREE.TextGeometry(chars[Math.floor(Math.random() * chars.length)], {
font,
size: 1,
height: 0.5,
curveSegments: 80,
bevelEnabled: false,
})
}
console.timeEnd("test")
}

test()

// To really drive it home you'd have to repeat it every two seconds ...
// setInterval(test, 2000)

how react 18 concurrency works exactly, i think that's not the right place to churn through it. the react team has published tons of reading material as well as public talks.

Seeing cypress touch controller used in PineNote... Mainline cyttsp4 driver is buggy, incomplete, sucks and there are no docs for the touch controller. You can't even do calibration with the mainline driver, which is necessary to have a usable touchscreen.

The vendor dropped the ball on that driver right after getting it mainline years ago - they didn't touch it ever since. It doesn't even support device tree.

So there's gonna be some pain, for whoever will want to get that thing working mainline.
