Very good! That actually reminds me of a similar story from a very well known sportscaster in my country who specialty was, say, rugby. One night he was on duty when a call came in from someone trying to settle a argument about soccer, something like which team had won the most soccer league titles A or B.
He replied that he wasn't an expert but he was pretty sure it was team A. Silence on the line, then the voice came back asking Is that Joe Bloggs?, he replied that it was and then the voice said and what the fuck would you know about it? and hung up.

Nope. I do them seriously. My Mavic 2 Pro has a microSD slot, my Canon EOS 5D Mark IV has a CF slot (it also does have a SD slot too, which is slower and I've never used it).

SD card reader is a nice addition for a handful of pros, sure, but definitely not essential for everyone who does photo/video seriously.
Looks nice. I guess my question is how easy would it be to implement this into into the providers directly? Reminds me of OPA which I believe does something similar already.
That link might be better.

An AWS MySQL RDS that is sized to contain the entire db
in memory and has the correct settings will also be
defacto fully in memory and just as fast as Redis but now
you're getting a whole relational db with all the added
benefit that entails

Are you making this assertion based on your practical experience or making a theoretical point. If it is the latter then probably it might not be correct. This is what the book Designing Data Intensive Applications from Martin Kleppman has to say:

Counterintuitively, the performance advantage of in-memory databases is not due to
the fact that they don't need to read from disk. Even a disk-based storage engine may
never need to read from disk if you have enough memory, because the operating system
caches recently used disk blocks in memory anyway. Rather, they can be faster
because they can avoid the overheads of encoding in-memory data structures in a form that can be written to disk.
(Chapter-03 Storage and Retrieval)

So it seems even the usage as you described the DB lookups won't be faster than Redis lookup. I haven't fully understood the reasoning author provides (any pointers providing more explanation are welcome). The book provides the paper https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/1376616.1376713 (OLTP Through the Looking Glass, and What We Found There") as the basis for the above assertion.

That's not entirely true - pre-agriculture hunter-gatherer societies don't seem to have had any kind of wars at all for all we've been able to find out (obviously they would have had murder and such human-to-human conflict).

This actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it - Only with the advent of agriculture did war make any sense, as before it would always be advantageous to just move to a different area rather than risk the few members of your family/tribe in a fight with another family/tribe, especially in the endless forests that populated much of the environment where humans lived.
This is really a fairly trivial exercise in Haskell, provided you pass the arguments as a heterogeneous list—which is semantically equivalent to a variable argument list. Here is my implementation: https://gist.github.com/nybble41/c459c6927a3bad8ec350d227193...

Here I defined a simple `Pipeline` GADT for the argument list, which is just a list of functions with some extra type constraints to ensure that they can be composed. You could do the same thing with a more general type like HList but the type signature for the `compose` function would be much more verbose since you would need to define the relationships between each pair of adjacent function types through explicit constraints involving type families, whereas the `Pipeline` type handles that internally.

Perhaps you don't consider Haskell "mainstream" enough?

Hmm, I feel they actually are very similar. The map function doesn't care what the mapping function is, as long as it's something it can call on each element returning something, it can do it's job. Same with DI in enterprise apps, my db-service don't care if it's a in-memory-test-db or postgres being injected, as long as the connector allows it to call sql methods on it.

Generally, Mac software that takes advantage of those instructions does so indirectly, via system libraries like the accelerate framework. If your x86 application is using a system library then on an M1 Mac those instructions won’t be emulated at all, they’ll run natively.

This is why Apple’s emulator is so fast: it doesn’t emulate any of the system libraries, it uses the native ones instead.

It is extraordinary that Graeber existed, even if for an unfairly short time span.

Extraordinary, not because he was genius (though he probably was in some sense) but because there aren't many more like him. He was one of the very few persons that dared to question prevailing narratives about how society and economic structures (in particular) were structured and evolved since prehistoric times and propose plausible alternatives about true underlying social mechanisms and phenomena.

Now, all societies fill-in the countless gaps and repaint the past to fit their purposes / justify an existing order. But in our "modern society" that claims to be scientific / fact based the paint job has some flaws so blatant it requires heroic will to pass unnoticed.

When I read criticism of his Debt (and I suspect of this last book as well) I sense people have no idea how monumental the task of re-visiting and re-examining how the past evolved into the present without regurgitating banalities and "self-evident" assertions. Implicit in this program is the debunking of the entire field of modern economics and its associated legal/financial structures.

If he is guilty of biting more than he could chew is because so many of the rest of us are intellectually and morally (and possibly soon also economically) bankrupt.
Note, that it is easier to ship a game for one platform. I don't have resources to test several platforms.

WebGPU is just 3D rendering. I will also need vector graphics, machine learning stuff, video playback, etc. Windows gives me that for "free" (DirectML, Direct3D 12 Video, Direct2D, DirectWrite).

My main goal is to ship a game and build interesting demos/mini-games as part of zig-gamedev project. I don't want to spend my time supporting and maintaining code for several platforms.

Also, using wrappers like WebGPU adds another layer of abstractions. I want to write my shaders in HLSL using dxc.exe, I want to directly see messages from DX debug layer and have full control over my code. WebGPU would just slow me down.

My game will run only on Windows 10+ and I'm fine with that.
IMHO, the biggest myth that modern historians adamantly believe in is that human intelligence has mysteriously developed from zero to current level in just 12,000 years. We are supposed to believe that humans were dumb savages, yet with fully functional, but apparently unused brains, and then they suddenly chose to become smart and in a few wild leaps they've gotten to quantum mechanics.

Probably need a few more days to let all the information sink in. But generally speaking Apple tends to simplify their product lineup over time. So I would not be surprised if there will be a 14" M1 Pro with 8GB Memory and 256GB Storage starting at $1499 in the future once they amortised some of the cost with higher price model. As mentioned in the post below, if you know BOM cost and list out things on the new 14/16" MBP the price is actually quite competitive.

The more interesting question is what happen to the sub $1299 price category. MacBook Air or MacBook? And how would it be designed?

What the author is really arguing against is configuring objects at construction time with their dependencies, rather than calling a function with one or more parameters being a dependency. The latter is a lot easier to reason about and run in a test.
I wish the non-Apple ecosystem gave a clear alternative that allows us to choose specs like this :-(

I look at Lenovo Thinkpad with Ryzen 5000 CPUs, they are stuck with crappy displays.

Dell has better displays but not the Ryzens CPUs I wanted.

I’d love almost exactly a MacBook Pro spec with M1Max replaced by Ryzen 5000 series CPU and 64 GiB of memory, and an excellent display. May be that unicorn of achieve will cost as much as your configured MacBook Pro :-(

I suspect MBP battery life didn’t look so great considering the thinness, new hungrier M1 processors, dramatically increased number of pixels on the main display, and possibly the extra ports to small degree. Perhaps dropping the second display is what helped them soften the hit a little. Rarely use touch bar myself other than for adjusting volume and brightness, but in those regards it’s been incredibly convenient.

I wanted to improve my JavaScript programming, and learn AG Grid at the same time so I tried to think of an application which had a data grid front and center, but met needs that I had. So I built a Markdown table code generator.

I've always hated building tables for Markdown so this was helpful in intial prototype stage.

I added CSV because AG Grid has an exportDataAsCSV function so it was a 'no cost' feature.

The parsing code for importing the various formats is pretty minimal so there will be many edge cases that don't work.

Because everything is based around the same data structures internally adding new import and export formats was fairly simple.

I haven't added any tests yet because I was incrementally building it and learning to structure JavaScript at the same time.

It is pure JavaScript with no frameworks, simply because I'm concentrating on learning JavaScript at the moment and there is no build system.

Looking at the code now, after a 4 month gap I can see that I didn't even know about JavaScript modules and imports at the time I started so the code is just added directly into the main index through a script element include.

It isn't the most robust application but it was an interesting starting point.

My end goal with it was to add data generation capabilities, and have it all run in the browser, but I haven't got to that point yet. My plan is to try to do this by adding a 'type' to each column and then using Faker to generate the data https://github.com/marak/Faker.js/

Thought it might be useful if anyone is learning JavaScript and wants to see a simple application.

Code is here:

https://github.com/eviltester/grid-table-editor

The readme file in the source has links to other similar apps which have been around for much longer if anyone needs an inbrowser table editor.

The actors are good. Their delivery and timing is good, and that saves some of the jokes. You can deliver a lazy joke well and get a laugh, it doesn't mean it isn't lazy.

When was the first time you watched this movie? Was it as an adult? Recently? If you watched it when you were young, and you're not young anymore, that's nostalgia. It has nothing to do with when the movie was produced.
Depends on the manufacturer. Lenovo x280 vs 2018 MBP. The Lenovo USB-C port is awful after 3 years of use, the port is loose and devices, including the woefully cheap charger, fall out. MBP, similar age (slightly older), and the ports still have a satisfying 'click' when plugged in. x280 cost more...
Don't know. It's true that an all-out battle is too risky a proposition. But Chimps e.g. are known to patrol the border areas of their territory in order to catch and kill stray members of neighbouring troupes. You can call that a murder, but I'd go with low-intensity warfare.

> I have met a large number of people who, somehow, basically cannot read: they have the text in front of them, but cannot interpret it, if it is not literal.

Lego has the bad habit of not extending their 'systems' thinking to their electrical and electronic components. New connectors are introduced rather willy-nilly and supply voltages and communications protocols change with potentially every model year.

This allows them to quickly follow trends but it is totally contrary to the mechanical interface which is backwards compatible for over 60 years.

The same goes for the train sets, the track width is more or less the same for ever but the track interconnects and the way the trains are powered have changed often.

Fortunately for the trains there is a solution (subset of track, only use the old 12V system for the track it will also support battery powered trains giving a reasonably broad coverage), but for the electronics and the various motors the situation is quite a bit more complex. Note how the article essentially limits compatibility to a single one of the 10 or so systems that Lego has over the years used to connect electrical components.

Anybody remember the very old style electrical interconnect plates?

Someone ought to cook up a compatibility kit that allows you to connect older and newer stuff at will.

I’m seriously considering buying a middle-spec M1 MBP, and I also have a preorder for a DIY Edition Framework laptop[0]. I realize devices which give users more freedom to tinker, repair, customize, improve, etc. may never compete for market share with locked-down devices which are harder to repair, upgrade, and recycle, but my hope is that the former will at least remain a viable option. It’s tempting to splurge on a top-of-the-line MBP, but I prefer to split my money so at least some of it goes toward sustainable and freedom-respecting computing.
