I can't make categorical statements, either. But here's another concrete observation to offer as evidence that things are not so clear cut: in generational GC, heap allocation is typically O(1). A heap allocation is typically O(n), where n is the size of the heap.

Of course that difference also tends to go away if you're using static buffers.

I find Java code way more maintainable than JavaScript or TypeScript, to be honest. Especially since Java 11, the language has evolved significantly.
Word2vec with embedding size 300 and more do refute your claim. I successfully trained word2vec model with above embedding sizes and used inner product similarity to create word clusters as it is out of the box there. Then I made a clusutering language model and got significantly lower perplexity compared to word-based language model.
OP lives in Denmark.

I wish the US had something similar. Not so much for tiny-house living, but common community gardens. My town (Reston, VA) has a few and they're popular. But, depending on where your house is located, they could be a few miles away. I'm on the waitlist for the closest garden and it's about 1.5 miles and an easy bike ride. No sheds or buildings allowed, but the community provides water and compost. I tried veggies in my front and rear yards this season, but they just don't get enough light (tall house and a few mature trees). Herbs do well, but tomatoes and peppers need more sun - the fruit eventually, but quite late in the season.
In my field (cinema/theatrical analytics), the value of AI/ML/Data Science is quite easy to calculate as we mainly use models that produce results that are then checked by human experts. To produce the same amount of output of just a single model, we would need 10x headcount.

I do agree though that an estimation of the value of AI work should be the first step in a project - often it's better to ask "why do we need this" even before asking "can this be done?".
Clojurescript's core.async is a game changer.
Indeed. JavaScript was supposed to be scheme with its own object property inheritance model. Of course stakeholders co-opted the language and forced the Java style syntax (and name) upon the language. Now most of the syntax additions has been focused on turning it into some kind of C#/Java lookalike so people who don't like functional programming and the object paradigm used in JavaScript can pretend it's just like the OOP stuff they like.

Instead of trying to turn JavaScript into C#/Java, C# and Java should just support compiling to web assembly and provide a good standard library for working with browsers. /rant
I had an experience where for a couple weeks I could playback symphonic music in my head and be able to control the loudness of individual sections, repeat passages, etc. with the same fidelity as a lived experience. I knew it was meme-erex but it sounded live.

It was a transformative experience and it gave me a small glimpse of what it would be like to have another order of magnitude of brain capability. The brain can be a wonderful place.

How much of you seeing your friend transcribe music with such ease, enabled you to achieve the same thing? I was thinking the other day about people being "first" at something and how once that happens, hundreds of others follow, almost as if they needed permission by the person being first. When know something is possible, that often removes the biggest barrier for doing a thing.

* No Flash of unstyled content or other client rendering anomalies which people code around

* SEO crawling without JavaScript

I'm going to guess that if you could have 8 Firestorm, you will always be better off having 6 Firestorm/8 Icestorm.

Always. In practical use. Even for the most isolated tasks there'll be enough 'maintenance work' for the system to do, in practice, that the pool of Icestorms will justify their real estate.

If I'm mistaken, it'll be because there proves to be a maximum number of Icestorm cores for the 'maintenance work' that's called for: say if you had a 64/64 system, the idea is that maybe you get to a point where you can have 'too many cores' on the Icestorm side, wastefully so.

But that assumes they play NO role in setting up the Firestorms to perform optimally. All this stuff, all this load balancing and assigning, isn't magically done by some GrandMasterCore, it's being worked out by the same CPUs that are benefitting from the load balancing.

If you can use Icestorm cores to better set up and load balance the Firestorm cores, if you can burn unused CPU on the Icestorm side to optimize the Firestorm side… then there is NEVER a situation where you'd want the Firestorms to outnumber Icestorms. If that's happening then the Icestorms are doing some grunt work to clear a path for the Firestorms, and if you can burn more cycles to further optimize that, well…
With enough traffic, you'll run out of ports.
Of course not, but micromanagement is never the answer. I will say there are a lot more decent programmers out there than there are managers. Many programmers are motivated by curiosity, 90% of managers are motivated by ego. Wfh is going to decimate the latter as egoless orgs become the norm.
It is a famous piece and I am very familiar with it. It is totally counter to my experience. What I've seen, among friends and family, includes

* climate science faculty getting death threats after having their work called out on fox news, and having members of the trump white house interfere with their grant funding

* transgender faculty being specifically targeted by organized harassment campaigns from tpusa, though trained students who know precisely where they can write hate speech without faculty members being able to share that material

* history faculty being told administrators to focus more on the history of the colonies in a history course focused on native americans.

And in the wider news

* grad students being publicly called out for their non-standard appearance by full professors on twitter after publishing work critical of heterodox views on Covid

* grad students being shit for being early-career on twitter by full professors after publishing work critical of heterodox views on Covid

* grad students receiving rape and other violent threats for calling out sexual assault committed by high-status faculty and the failure of universities to take action and then continuing to do so through the hatred

My experience is that undergraduates and grad students are actually either far more open to exploring ideas and engaging in difficult work that can even involve threats on their own lives than administrators or political leaders think they are, or they are already ideologically frozen and only take courses so they can attack the faculty members.
You can only blame corporations for slacking off and following "worst practices". Yes, all my friends' and family's computers run windows 8.1 embedded, without updates, no AV, maxed out firewall. Yes, its insecure. Yes, microsoft decided not to have a separate update channel for security. Et cetera.

It's a complete waste of time to roll back updates and drivers because Windows does something stupid by itself or makes very clickable popups to fool people.

It's 2021 and Linux supports 99.999999% of software on the planet. Use it.
I absolutely adore Go, finding it to be an imperfect language that nonetheless yields powerful, maintainable solutions. It is the ultimate duct-tape language, allowing one to build robust, performant systems using a massive library and fantastic C interop where necessary. Yet I wouldn't consider it for "low-level" code. Garbage collection alone invalidates it in that regards (religious war: reference counting beats GC every time), in the same way that C# and Java aren't credible low level languages.

You aren't going to see C# or Go used in the Linux kernel.

"Rust (the Rick & Morty of programming languages - not a compliment)"

You mean something that is good to great but that "outsiders" or late adopters feel unexplainably threatened by and thus feel the need to attack it and its admirers? Where ironically the detractors are louder and more numerous than the advocates ever were?

Rust is particularly susceptible to this effect as it has been racking up wins and growing in influence, making people feel insecure about their current skillset/knowledge (always a weird motivator for rhetoric in this industry).

I have only dabbled in Rust a few times. It feels very unintuitive and "write-only" from my 1000 foot, ignorant perspective. But I realize that's on me, and appreciate the focus and purpose of the language.

Rust today seems like a 2013 Tesla Model S. A couple of years ago it was the GM EV1: It used to be largely promise of a future to come with a loads of downsides, where today it's expensive to get started with, has a lot of incompatibilities, but it's superior to most alternatives. Tomorrow it and those like it will be the norm.
There's already a viable-but-not-utilized intermediate step, which is travel by motorized ship. Queen Mary 2 travels various transatlantic (and other international routes), but rates are rather high. One can also book passage on cargo ships, but price comes out to $100-120 a night, which, given that passage includes room and board, isn't unreasonable.

Ship travel trades off cost of fuel (and aircraft) for cost of accommodations for the duration of the voyage. Add in that most people who can afford international travel cannot afford to take off 2-4 weeks from work just for the travel.

Satellite internet might be able to obviate this for some employees, but even novel smallsat-based approaches have bandwidth limitations and latency that is too high for useful video calls.
A trick I've found to eliminate them in a few cases: pass &[T; size] instead of &[T] when dealing with statically sized arrays. The compiler will elide bounds checking a lot more aggressively with statically sized arrays since the bounds are known at compile time.

Most banks offer a fixed rate for an x number of years while you pay your mortage in 30 years.

The lower x is, the lower the interest you pay during those years.

For example, banks can offer the following loans:
- 20 year fixed rate at 1.30%
- 30 year fixed rate at 1.42%

So there is a possibility to gamble with the interest rates while still having a "fixed" rate.
Not unthinkable. It depends on how the load balancing is, especially if the little cores are far from helpless on their own.

FWIW for portage (Gentoo) there is g-sorcery[0], which can create ebuilds for Emacs (m/elpa) and python packages automatically. Similarly there is also cargo-ebuild[1] which can create ebuilds for rust programs/libraries, including a list of all dependencies with hashes.

I've successfully used cargo-ebuild in the past to create ebuilds automatically, it's a breeze. I'd be surprised if similar tools didn't exist for deb/rpm based distros.

I'm always surprised how many problems people have with python on other distributions. On Gentoo I can install multiple versions at the same time, install libraries for any of those or just a specific python version of my choosing (including pypy), set a default python implementation (pypy) and of course I can pick the version of the libraries I need, too. It's not as flexible as nix, but quite close. Not a python dev though, so YMMV.

I just say (honestly) that I'm not very familiar with windows anymore.

I've slowly started saying the same thing with MacOS as it's getting longer and longer since I used it, but I'm still relatively competent from helping colleagues out.

I did install Linux on my partners machine ever since a forced windows update (I think it was to windows 10?) bricked her previous laptop.

For me, part of it is I'm generally unhappy having to fix windows machines. They make me somewhat frustrated and I find it relatively simple to diagnose and fix any Linux problems, even on "foreign" distros.
I presume fixed rate on real estate loans. You take 25 year mortgage, while having first 10 years fixed because its so cheap. You as a buyer hope desperately super low interest rates will still remain after those 10 years. If not, many people will be royally screwed since their monthly payments can easily double/triple.

Ie in Switzerland with their specific mortgages, it can easily go from USD 800 to USD 8000 per month if things go south, with drop in prices matching this development.
I'd describe the legal system as necessary, but not sufficient. The social system(s) the same.
I'd consider "controlling" something to be more direct, but that's semantics I guess.

If I heard "control heartbeat", I'd think more like breathing, where one could "hold their heart" like they "hold their breath".

If meditation lowers heartbeat and temperature, I imagine that it's "control" in the strictest sense, but I'd use "influence" or some other term if I was personally describing it.

Years ago I decided to stop supporting my family's non-Apple devices. They now all have Macs and iPhones and I don't have to support anything - it just works (they've somehow avoided all the hardware issues a lot of people have been having, but I can't support hardware anyway, so it's still a win for me).

Most of their issues nowadays are with their routers but they know how to solve those problems: a reboot or reset. I have to help my mom with a reset. That's about all the family tech support I have to do these days.

HN can complain about Apple all they want but for non-computer savvy consumers it's a very good experience.
I think as far as FDIC and the like go, that's probably the intention of the policy. Less money for them to cover if a bank goes bust and the country has diversified its savings.

It is standard procedure in order to get formal proof of permanent residence. The thing is that no-one bothers with it because it is usually not needed. The procedure existed before the referendum, it did not change because of the result. What changed is that people suddenly thought that it may be useful and decided to apply.

For instance, just to stay in English, if you're in Ireland this is the form: http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/Form-EUTR2.pdf/Files/Form-EUT...

It's pretty much the exact same as the British one used to be, and as I already mentioned this is because it is based on an EU procedure, and so will be pretty much the same everywhere:

https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/residence/documents-fo...

Note that some EU countries also require EU/EEA nationals to register with the police/local authorities, which the UK did not and so actually made life for EU citizens simpler that quite a few other EU countries.

Another reality check here, apparently.
You generally have the option of setting the fixed rate for a lesser period of time in exchange for a discount. At least that’s how it worked in Japan.

So

Floating rate: 0.7%

1 year fixed rate: 0.9%

5 year fixed rate: 1.2%

10 year fixed rate: 1.4%

35 year fixed rate: 1.6%

Because many system package managers doesn't support multiple version of a same package easily. Also, there are system (used to) without a package manager.

> causes python devs to often be way too specific in version specs

I don't think anything could fix that, because it is totally up to library developers to decide whether they want to make breaking change or not. So being able to use different exact version of dependencies for different projects are important.

BTW, I find it annoying that many distro package manager doesn't make it easy for user to install package for themselves without root. Even Nix requires you to create /nix IIRC.
It has a certain appeal to developers because it makes separation of concerns easier.
