I did a lot of of F#, and I disagree.

While many functions have an argument that is clearly "primary", some just don't. I personally find placeholder to be a better option, especially if used with named arguments.

Seeing your later comment about functional languages, I think they suffer from lack of overloading. E.g. F#'s fold2 would be much better as |> fold(a, %, func). Sometimes there's just no way around it.
That was like magic.

Ha. Maybe there's little you wouldn't sacrifice that isn't yours, but there's very little you would sacrifice yourself to save someone. For $500 right now you can save someone's life for a year. What seems to be confusing you is that you're not thinking of Moderna as real people.

Running Docker on a Mac vs on Linux is going to be a subpar experience compared to a native x86 Linux box. It would take a LOT to magic around that.

The units being used here are likely different. In most press releases Nvidia uses their "tensor core" performance, usually with either sparsity or 16 bit data. A single A100 is said to have 320 teraflops of "tensor float" performance but only 19 teraflops of "normal" full FP32 performance.

This is way out of my field so I don't know the whole implications, but my understanding is Nvidia cards cam only reach these speeds at the loss of precision or full functionality, so it's an apples to oranges comparison versus non-nvidia chips.
It's the best handled plague ever.

Yup, that is exactly what happened in Germany in the 1920s-30s - the National Socialists and Hitler were 'democratically' elected, and went forward to subvert everything.

But I would say that just because a group can subvert the rules and institutions of democracy once in power, that they are still a small-d democratic regime because they were initially elected and followed some of the forms.

You actually get better single core performance out of a 5900x than a 5950x. The more cores the AMD CPU has, generally the more they constrain the speed it can perform at on the top end. In this case, the 5950x is 3.5GHz and the 5900x is 3.7GHz. The 5800x is even slightly faster than that, and there's some Geekbench results that show single core performance faster than the score listed here, but at that point the multi-core performance isn't winning anymore.

Also, I'm not sure what's up with Geekbench results on MacOS, but here's a 5950x in an iMac Pro that trounces all the results we've mentioned here somehow.[1]

> How many spaces is a tab? GCC seems to say “8”, for some reason

On old mechanical typewriters without adjustable tab stops (which were on the carriage, not the part you typed BTW, which skeuomorphically survived in Word’s tab stop interface), the tab key (those that had tab keys) slid the carriage left 8 spaces. You could often push it back a bit if you wanted. This carried over to TTYs which were grossly electromechanical devices and from there to glass teletypes and terminals.

So it’s the proper default.

Typewriters were pretty direct. Often they omitted the 1 and 0 digits (just use l and O). Of course there was not a VT or LF — you just stretched out your right hand and turned the platen. For FF you gripped the paper and pulled. On some models, to backspace you just pushed the carriage. And to delete (called rubout on a some old terminals) you painted or XXXed out the offending text — or used a pen. Even on legal documents (which is why they still both write out use digits to specify numbers)

> My friend said "I can fix that" and fixed the bug and checked it in in two hours. The manager, astonished, asked him how he figured it out. He said "I didn't figure it out. I disassembled the object code using Walter's disassembler that turns it into assembler source code, found the bug, fixed it, and checked in the new asm source code!"

Nice! But this trick doesn't work when a bad program is written in a HLL! I once speeded up a C++ program that took 3 minutes & was in the critical path for 40-50 engineers. It was badly written and the logic was spread all over the place. It was not fixable so I took the easy way out. I looked at its inputs+outputs, fed various smaller samples to figure out the IO logic and reimplemented it from scratch. The new program ran in 0.5 seconds. It wasn't a difficult problem but nobody wanted to touch the program because it was so badly written.

I think the moral is that bad programmers will misuse whatever features they have access to. The "dark side" is less that of the feature in question and more in the lack of early intervention and proper training! People need to be taught how to use power tools responsibly & judiciously. If you take away all the power tools for the fear of misuse, you will only see mediocre work. Or worse.
When teaching programming the concept of "local scope" seems hard to grasp for some people. The easy explanation is that a pronoun (usually) has a scope of a sentence or a paragraph.

Just calling everything a "variable" seems imprecise.

Why is that not done through the MIME type and using HEAD? The server is apparently much better able to figure out the MIME type through magic numbers and file extensions of the actual file, than the author (human or not) of the HTML, as we see.

The same headers also inform the browser that they can skip downloading a favicon that they consider too big, for example.
In OPs precise instance wouldn't that be some form of incompetence given the stated goals of that funding? A competent reviewer would potentially be able to see these things in the code without tools.

The server side would truncate to the original length, leaving you with a one or two letter username, working around the 3+ requirement.
Words don't quite do their stonework justice. Plenty of old-world architecture is made of whatever weirdly-shaped rocks they had lying around, but they use mortar to hold them together. The Incan mortar-less stone puzzle look is extremely cool: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mur_Inca_D%C3%A9cemb...

"Usually the walls of Incan buildings were slightly inclined inside and the corners were rounded. This, in combination with masonry thoroughness, led Incan buildings to have a peerless seismic resistance thanks to high static and dynamic steadiness, absence of resonant frequencies and stress concentration points. During an earthquake with a small or moderate magnitude, masonry was stable, and during a strong earthquake stone blocks were “ dancing ” near their normal positions and lay down exactly in right order after an earthquake."
The M1 Max isn't competing with the 4800u, considering that it's starting price is ~10x that of the Lenovo Ideapad most people will be benching their Ryzen chips with. I don't think it's unfair to compare it with the M1, since it's still more expensive than the aforementioned Ideapad. Oh, and the 4800u came out 18 months before the M1 Air even hit shelves. Seeing as they're both entry-level consumer laptops, what might you have preferred to compare it with? Maybe a Ryzen 9 that would be more commonplace in $1k+ laptops?

While it's interesting that Trump has launched a social network I think they're going to struggle with the network effect and be in the same situation as Gab, where because all of their users are there for one purpose there's no general discussion about any topic beyond users being pro-trump.
This, so much this.

Just know though, that there are different places out there. I surely am tempting Murphy right now. Please recognize my sacrifice.

My current place is rather good in this regard. People actually care. The Devs genuinely care about both their work environment and code base. We actively try to hire other people that care and not let in the ones that don't.

We do hire 'inexperienced' as well but that doesn't mean you gotta take bad dev experience. For example I have a really 'inexperienced' guy on my team. But we hire him anyway because he showed signs of 'caring' during the interview and coding challenge (take home - I know what you think. It's different than you think and I'd be happy to elaborate if you want to). He is awesome! I try as hard as I can to give him the space to be awesome and not let the 'bad parts' of the company (which exist even in awesome companies) reach and discourage him (and others like him).

We keep our builds fast, we spend a bunch of money on giving every dev a prod like environment. A monorepo.
a friend of mine has that problem. his company is owned by his wife because his name can't appear in legal documents and he refuses to change it. his approach was that he petitioned unicode to include that character.

i don't think the authorities are actively trying to eliminate those characters but simply don't want to go through the effort to track down and have those characters added to the standard. the process takes years and in the mean time you have to live with the inconvenience. also most of the people faced with the problem would not even know how.

Not too related, but I got my genome sequenced for fun the other day (< $500 for 30x whole genome), and after a few scrolls through the results (200+ interpretations of my genome in the context of studies like the one linked here), I'm already losing interest.

Ok, so I have a high genetic predisposition for thinness, walking fast [0], and bipolar disorder? So now what? I never noticed except for the thinness. They even scared me with 'you're genetically in the 99th percentile for critical covid disease progression,' but reading the results of the paper in question, it turned out the heritability of the effect under study was only 6%. Thanks for letting me know.

These studies are interesting from a general genomics perspective, but not so much yet from a personal one (with the exception of a few traits that are determined by one or a few well-understood genetic variants. Hopefully this space will expand over the next few decades).

At what point does one apple and another one apple become two apples? Is a matter of distance? Likeness? Practicality doesn’t say there must be two apples, just one apple and another one apple. Two (apples) is just an abstraction in my mind.

> I'm not covinced companies are out to "make their old products feel worse over time"

I don't think they're trying to make their old products worse over time. But I also don't think companies generally care that much about making old products work better over time. One of the parent commenters noted how well modern android runs on really old nexus phones if you strip out the "modern" animations and useless features. There's nothing stopping google doing this. People would love it. So its notable that they don't. Apple got a lot of good will from me a few years ago when they focussed on performance in ios 13 (or was it 12?). That OS release made my phone feel new again. After that update I think it ran faster than it did when I bought it.

Another way to think about it is that when you buy a product, your incentives and the company's incentives are aligned. You want the best phone. The company wants your money, and knows they need to deliver a good product to get it. After you've bought a product, the company's motivations aren't as well aligned with yours.

Arguably a company sells more phones in the long run when they have a good reputation for delivering on quality, and supporting their products. Eg, a few years ago some of my friends would buy every single blizzard game simply off the back of their reputation.

But most companies don't take advantage of this, and mistakenly focus on short term sales even if it harms their reputation. And, in turn, their long term profits.

As someone much wiser than me said, service and support is a form of marketing to repeat customers.

I just bought a 1600 sq ft home and it's honestly too small cause both me and my wife want our PC gamer setups so we have a dedicated room for that but then I need an office too so we end up hanging out all day in literally the smallest room in the house.

I'll be doing a major remodel to address this among other issues. But yea if we had a game room or a loft or something similar it would be a lot better.

The appraisal came in with the lot being 600k and the home itself is only 350k.

Half an acre though.

Yeah, this is neat looking, but there is nothing resembling the rigor or even simple empiricism baked into the OWASP Top 10 to enable this kind of visualization. The Top 10 is ultimately a marketing mechanism for web software security. That's not a bad thing! Web software security can use all the marketing help it can get. But, regardless of what anyone at OWASP says about this, I don't think there's much validity either to the way it buckets vulnerabilities into these categories, or the way it "prioritizes" them.

It's likely the case that everyone involved knew that facebook would win in court as they were following both the intent and the letter of the law (which badly needs updating).

> iPads and Chromebooks). I just don't see that being much of a use case though, except in desperate circumstances where a more capable dev machine isn't available.

A number of schools dispatch iPads and Chromebooks to their students. They can hook a keyboard and a mouse, and with vscode.dev they now have a decent dev machine.

Sure parents could buy a windows/linux/macos laptop, but outside of the cost, maintenance is not trivial (parents wishing to restrict access to whatever resource will have a harder time)

To push a bit farther, there are pretty powerful and usable Chromebooks, and iPads are now on par with most laptop when it comes to processing power, especially JS. Extending their role to be able to code a bunch is nothing to sneeze at.

Getting validation from a VC is like step zero in forming a successful business. We need to go easy on the VC hero worship. The only thing that matters is finding a customer.
Also a pattern is Apple reusing physical specs for a generation or two. The 13 mini is essentially an upgraded 12 mini in the same case. There was no innovation or upgrades in design, so they likely decided to get the most out of their parts stock.

Some think the 12/13 is the last small apple phone. And like the OP implies, it's a catch 22: They only put non-premium specs on the small phone, so people don't buy them, so they justify killing it because of the size.
