Wonder if this will lead to a functional iOS port of Blender?

Pretty much the whole reason I went with a MS Surface tablet instead of an iPad of some sort, was the lack of Blender.

Is that so? In theory, derivatives like futures can increase the efficiency of market clearing. Nevertheless, it is apparent that the price of oil is many times more volatile than the price of downstream finished goods using oil.
Sorry, I should have added ‘’ around ‘privileged elite class’ to be more clear that it is certainly a label up for debate.

Unfortunately, with the destruction of many jobs due to outsourcing and the shrinking middle class, there are a growing % (and number) of citizens who would consider tenured professors (and their surrounding bureaucracy) an elite institution that looks down on their way of life. Treading this carefully might be necessary since their voting power is growing.
Nearly everything is going to be a SOC because that's what commercial applications need to minimize part count and cost; there's negligible demand for a standalone processor.

If you're just looking to breadboard up a computer but don't want to go back to 8-bit processors, the Motorola MC68000 / MC68008 used in the original Apple Macintosh is a 32-bit processor in a DIP package running at a manageably low frequency and can be found on eBay inexpensively.

Tires are usually rated for 40 ,000 to 60,000 miles. Americans drive 13,500 miles per on average[1]. That would cause tires to be replaced on average after ~4 years. So yeah, seems believable.

Perhaps "entitled to ask" is a poor choice of words. Yes, freedom of speech allows bipson to ask about contributing. It still comes across as entitled. The question was clearly laden with some expectation that Reventlov should go do work for syncthing instead of sharing an opinion on Hacker News.

We're just here having a conversation. The expectation that a user MUST do something for an open source project because they have an issue is a tired take. It's not as though Reventlov is blowing up Syncthing's development team with demands about how to make it better. And, for all any of us know, Reventlov may have already submitted PRs or opened issues for Syncthing. Or, it could be the case that there's a different piece of software suiting their needs better, and that's fine. Or, Reventlov maybe just doesn't possess the technical skill to contribute in that way. And that's okay too.

Bludgeoning people with an open source virtue-stick for sharing an opinion isn't helpful.

As someone in operations, totally this. Consistency is the biggest thing.

I've worked with plenty of wizards that can figure anything/everything out, but these deviations have a hidden cost.

The farm of resources no longer behaves like cattle, it's all pets - with their own identities, personalities, etc.

Containers abstract most of this away, a simple runtime and any host can be just like another with a tiny amount of automation.

We get things like scale from this, but if it 'works on your machine' but not ours, we're no further.

Github should see them as competitors, because Gitlab has definitely taken business from them.

Back in 2014 I started at a company that was still using a hand-rolled git server. They tried out Github enterprise but were unsatisfied with GH's lack of LDAP integration, so they were going to continue to frankenstein their in-house git server. I pitched them Gitlab instead, which did pretty much everything GH enterprise was doing, plus LDAP integration, plus was a fraction of the price. They were sold, I migrated the company to Gitlab, and continued to be impressed as Gitlab ran laps around Github on features.

Everything had bevels (XP) and/or shading (Vista) that evoked a 3D appearance. Buttons are extruded (and appear to physically move down when pushed), menus overlay each other, text boxes are "inset".

Why in the world would you think that google would do anything that did not use their system? That's just not based in reality one bit.
Agreed. I think you say it more succinctly.

It can also be frustrating if you know a little OO (but not how Java does everything) and then try to learn a functional language that sits on top of one of these OO tar pits of an ecosystem. I can write Python classes, but seeing the complicated mess of Java is frustrating as that has to be learned as well. Nothing against Java btw (it has its place), but it does seem to require a lot of boilerplate.

I'll admit that I was wrong about GitLab. I had the chance to invest in them way back in the day, and passed. My thought at the time was that no open source company had ever been super successful except RedHat, which was more of an outlier than a pattern. And my other thought was that they are competing against GitHub, which was extremely popular and well funded.

I honestly didn't think they stood a chance.

I'm happy to have been proven wrong. Congrats to the whole team on their successful exit!

Also, it's not irony because it's not even a related subject. People are complaining about billionaires... 99.9999% SDEs are not coming to this country and becoming billionaires. Saying "we're ones to talk" or some kind of equivilant is an irrelevant attempt to lump any sort of wealth with being a billionaire... which is a fairly old-fashioned method to distract by creating lower-class infighting about what "wealthy" means.

For an SDE making a very healthy $200k a year... it would take five thousand years to reach $1 billion.

It's like arguing that the 2nd amendment should allow the private ownership of nuclear warheads. It's a strawman well outside the scale of the actual discussion.
I don't think they're trying to "make their vision happen," I think they're trying to solve real issues people have with URLs. Some of their solutions don't work, as stated in the article I linked original, but I don't think they're doing anything nefarious. They're trying to serve their users, the vast majority of whom have no idea what a URL is.

I also wanted the ability to handle relative links between Markdown files (and relative links for images). I'm surprised this isn't a default feature of nearly every static site generator, honestly.

How do you figure? Certainly we can't afford to keep emitting at the rate we're emitting, but if we transition to entirely clean energy and use our existing farmland more efficiently (rather than encroaching on important ecosystems) then I'm not sure what the remaining bottlenecks are. Lumber?
I recently came across this pretty awesome system for vertical hydroponics. It's designed to be self-contained, with minimal labor and power requirements (systems can be run off-grid.) It's a bit capital intensive, and you have to get your nutrients from somewhere, of course, but it seems really promising.

Gitlab doesn't want to sell
Seriously, they're miles behind. It doesn't even really support Kubernetes, you have to have long running 'runner' servers ala Jenkins and you need to have all your build tools installed on those. It's miserable, fragile and I've dearly, dearly missed gitlab CI the last few times I've had to go anywhere near actions.
> You know, the idea may be bonkers, but honestly - hiring is such a pain for every person involved that I'm willing to try just about anything to make it easier.

The introduction of mandatory middle men into a system listed on the FTC webpage as a classic scam signal (pay for job opportunity) does not fundamentally eliminate the problems with it. The structural incentives are such that this model cannot work except as a scam ripping off most of the people pay into it, and the structural incentives also guarantee that it will mostly be the actual job seekers ultimately paying, even if the payments are forced to be laundered through “referrers”.

Jenkins is a nightmare because everyone decided to spend months customising it with groovy and it became overly specific to your team/dept. The servers themselves are quite simple (single .jar, etc). These days we have containers, and it's made CI a much better thing.
Cycles is good first step if Apple wants to make blender fully functional on Mac. I wonder if they'll ever attempt to port Eevee to metal, that seems like the logical next step if Apple wants to permanently remove OpenGL from macOS.
I don't know what we're describing by "NN"; which is, in large part, exactly my point.

I was taking you to be flip-flopping on backwards/forwards feeding; rather than to be talking about recurrent loops.

What is meant to be meaningfully a graph? What definition of "neural network" are you using?

The NN model itself, even recurrent, is just a regression function. In the sense that a Turing machine is just an implementation of a function from the Naturals to Naturals -- yes, a regression function, is likewise, a program.

The thing which is "Turing complete" cannot possibly be any particular regression function, as that is simply one program. So it has to be "the function of the function" -- which isnt a graph.

So again: what exactly is a graph here? What is the definition of NN you're using?

The NN family of algorithms are just means of interpolating through compressed feature spaces; ie., they are just kernel machines which remember compressions of their training data and compute distances for predictions.

That process, like essentially any function-generator, can without much work be made Turing complete. This, like being a "universal funciton approximiator" isnt an interesting property.

But either way, it still doest explain how any of this has anything to do with networks, brains, or anything like it.

I've got an old iPad that's still running iOS 10.0.1 (yes, I know). It's used very infrequently and mostly just for reading (PDF documentation, primarily).

Coincidentally, I happened to be in the middle of looking something up right as the clock struck "NotAfter".

My first clue that "something was up" came when clicking a link to another page on one of the sites I had opened... I switched tabs, clicked a link to some other page on that site... nope. Then, I tried visiting a few random sites that are bookmarked. Some loaded just fine, others through errors.

Out of habit, I glanced at the clock -- my ISP's maintenance windows typically start at 2am and they are very good at starting at exactly that time! It wasn't 2am, but it was just past the top of the hour at this point.

I don't recall now if the errors displayed were certificate-related specifically or just "generic" in nature, but I suddenly recalled seeing an article in the past day or two reminding us all of the impending doom and destruction that was about to be unleashed upon us when the root certificate expired.

Using the Firefox browser (which was up-to-date) on my workstation, I tried loading a couple of the sites that were refusing to load on the iPad but I encountered no issues whatsoever -- everything was fine. A quick check of the certificate chain on the "affected" sites confirmed the cause of my problems.

Back on the iPad, I downloaded a copy of the "new" root certificate from my workstation, confirmed, confirmed, confirmed, and was back to whatever it was I was looking into by 10 minutes past the hour.

Somehow I managed to escape all of the Y2K-level atrocities that were supposed to occur and had totally forgotten about the entire "incident" until seeing this here -- and, as you might guess, haven't ran into any other issues related to this since then.

Apocalypse averted (for now), I suppose.

I too have no car, zero commute, maybe take one flight every other year etc. I still think we should stabilize human population. I don't know what is the maximum number of humans mother earth can support without completely fucking up the planet, but I don't want to find out. Do you?

I don't have kids and don't plan to have. Nobody is forcing me not to have kids, in fact the opposite. I am the black sheep of my family and social circle, people look at me weird for not having kids (not that I care).

The problem with asking people to live responsibly is that it hasn't worked so far. Ever tried asking a meat eater to reduce a tiny bit of their meat consumption? Another issue is that even if it worked, it will take a long time for people to change their habits. We should of course educate people about responsible living, but we should also remember that it is a long, hard process.

I don't know what the solution is, but we are at a point that we should try everything we can think of, including asking people to have less kids, live responsibly etc etc

Great question - your password manager is another account-based service, most of which also provide backup recovery codes in case of lockout.

Sharehold does not require an email or password, instead it uses social recovery as your recovery mechanism meaning you break the cycle of using one account to recover another and instead use your personal recovery team.

I've coded MUDs for about 25 years now, and I use a lot of these patterns in my code. Nice to see someone else thinks its useful.

I think a key strategy that is not touched on too much in the talk is flexibility in your effect system, whatever your effect system may be. It should be trivial to take an effect (heal, damage, stat boost, etc) and let anything in your game apply it to actors with just a few lines of code: items, spells, tiles, regions, the whole game, etc.

As an example, lots of games will specifically give certain classes hps/mana/better chance to hit/new skills as they gain levels.

I just use my effect system for this. Now I can have items that give skills too, because items use the same effect system.
