Vivaldi browser has had a similar form of spatial navigation for the longest while, which is the Chromium-based spiritual successor to Opera classic (using the Presto engine) which also had it.

Not my experience either on a fanless M1 Air. I can run lots of containers without it perceptibly heating up or slowing down. Battery life does suffer but I can still usually get at least 4-5h of solid programming like this.
Maybe because they can be implemented with only one pole/conductor for the underwater part. AFAIUI two poles go to the shore, where one pole ends in a metal-mesh underwater, using the salty sea as conductor until the remaining single cable reaches the other shore, where another underwater metal-mesh exists, and from that emerges the remaining piece of dual pole HVDC overland.

I know of at least one such solution between Germany and Sweden trough the Baltic Sea.

Google Drive and OneDrive are sync services. Backblaze is backup. You can walk back to a specific day on Backblaze and download or ship a copy of all your files from before a disaster hit. Google's Backup is still live synced and has no rollback functionality. Sync is handy, but I still have the synced folders backed up.
That is an excellent way to trick yourself into a host of verifiably false beliefs propagated by special interest groups, and a testament to the success of Washington's propaganda apparatus.

For example, you would believe that China didn't effectively contain COVID-19 as the CPC and Chinese media claimed, even though there are countless visible correlations that verify, e.g. measures of economic activity that cannot reasonably be spoofed.

This is actual JavaScript code, from one of my projects:

function processAudioData(data, callback) {
// dump audio data to WAV file
}

It's implementing a callback from a library.

Even reading the source code of the library I had problems figuring this one out. Had it been say C# code I'm pretty certain I would have had it done in seconds.

How do you solve this in seconds? I'm genuinely curious as this is something I often struggle with when having to use say Python or JavaScript.

Motivation is really the important factor, not the specific type of equipment. It depends if you want to get strong or you want to get lean.

I'd personally get the squat rack because cardio is easily performed outside (running/cycling), whereas lifting very heavy but precise amounts of weight can really only be done with a rack, bars, and plates.

If you want to get lean then I'd recommend a bike (Zwift/Peloton) setup over the rowing machine. The ability to do workouts along with the mild gamification makes a big difference in motivation. There are similar programs for rowing but they are drastically less mature.

I was under the impression that their business was $70/year to backup your whole computer (all drives, completely managed). Their backup service grew 23% yoy, so I wouldn't call it in decline.

Can you go into why Google Drive is a better alternative? I can see 2 TB for $100/yr, but I don't think the products are exactly the same.
> Do you really only !g 1% of the time?

Yes, I can confirm that for me personally. Most of the time I don't even think about doing that and I'm mostly satisfied. It's only when I hit a wall then I remember to do !g. So, overall for me it's been working well.

As I noted in my edit, one area where Google seems to have an edge is results from relevant forums and the likes. So, sometimes I have to remember to do !g when the results on topics I'm looking for are mostly discussed in some forums.

Also, I've become more accustomed to DDG that I find Google different. But, I've been using DDG for longer it seems.
True, but you also have a dedicated power port, when before if you wanted to plug in that had to be one of the USB-C's too.

More technical details. For the time dilation you must correct the time by 1/sqrt(1-(v/c)²) that can be approximate for small speeds as 1+½(v/c)².

If the speed of the neutrons is less than 1e-5 c, the correction is less than 1e-10.

The lifetime of neutrons is approximately 15 minutes lifetime, so the correction is less than 1e-7 seconds. But they are measuring with a precision of only only a few tenths of a second, so the corrections is negligible.
Stereotypes are often better predictors of human behavior than actual psychological research. [0] Would Damore been more justified in his memo if he simply cited common stereotypes rather than psychology research?

Throwing out psychology, as the author of the original piece wants to do, is a double edged sword. You may knock the legs out from under Damore's stool, but you have no evidence left to use to argue against him. Indeed, quite a few people's "gut feelings" are going to be aligned with his argument.

Chrome is definitely faster at using up all available resources! Platform-level optimization cannot lead to drastic changes in memory utilizations unless Google completely ignores the macOS platform! Which features are needed for the 99.99% browser usage? I open Chrome with 10 tabs opened and 15 minutes later it's using 8GB of RAM! Basic pages, like Messenger, Facebook, and Gmail. The same pages with the exact used browser features in Safari use just a fraction of the resources and actually provide a better browsing experience! So, Google should rethink what a browser is nowadays - from a thin client, they turned the browser into a morbidly-obese client!
I can second this. It's a cool bit of technology. They labeled it "blockchain" way after the fact because it kinda-sorta resembles a blockchain, but it was never really that. It was a distributed replication layer on top of SQL. I remember it constantly breaking. Your description fits well: CEO's pet project that no one else really loved. I have to imagine they've got it pretty stable by now, though.
quite the rabbit hole this decision theory business. for the uninitiated, I'd recommend reading about Roko's basilisk. it's easy to dismiss these as new age techno religion crap, but I feel like there's more to this than that.

> this is mostly wrong. The real issue has always been memory bandwidth.

Not really wrong. Memory bandwidth is only a limitation for a very narrow subset of problems.

I've gone back and forth between server-grade AMD hardware with 4-channel and 8-channel DDR4 and consumer-grade hardware with 2-channel DDR4. For most of my work (compiling, mostly) the extra memory bandwidth didn't make any difference. The consumer parts are actually faster for compilation because they have a higher turbo speed, despite having only a fraction of the memory bandwidth.

Memory bandwidth does limit certain classes of problems, but we mostly run those on GPUs anyway. Remember, the M1 Max memory bandwidth isn't just for the CPU. It's combined bandwidth for the GPU and CPU.

It will be interesting to see how much of that memory can be allocated to a M1 Max. It might be the most accessible way to get a lot of high-bandwidth RAM attached to a GPU for a while.

This is true if you're focused on the compiler but if you include the adjacent question of what is reported to you in your editor while working it's a bit blurrier. If I write some Rust code and pass a string into something which expects an integer, I get a hard error preventing compilation. If I do the same thing in Python, however, and there's a prominent error displayed in my editor before I even run the code, how different is that from the perspective of anyone who isn't watching my screen? In either case the bug was caught before the code even ran and I likely have type-aware autocompletion to reduce the odds of making that mistake in the first place.

That's not to say that there aren't quite reasonable questions about how effective the different approaches are or how easy it is to fix the error, how complete the checks are, how deep the checks go, etc. A lot of how you feel about that is going to be subjective based on the languages you use and the quality of the code you work with — Rust has an advanced type system and great developer ergonomics providing unusually helpful error messages, Python has weaker typing but also a culture about simplicity which discourages some classes of bugs, Java has a lot of mushy-typed code where people got tired of language / compiler drawbacks and came up with ways to improve ergonomics at the expense of defeating the type checker, etc.
They didn’t say that the Kafka clusters they personally ran could have been handled with Postgres instead.

They first gave their credentials by mentioning their experience.

Then they basically said ”given what I know about Kafka, with my experience, I require other people who ask for it to show me that they really need it before I accommodate them - often a beefy Postgres is enough”.

Which reminds me: I want more USB-C ports; Caldigits latest Thunderbolt 4 dock finally added the ability (as I believe the chipsets available maxed out at 2 ports previously).

You can. It serves over http. You can control via ssh+mpc (you'll want to turn the local volume at home to zero most likely). There's also android clients.

It's been a while since I've done this, but from what I remember the main weakness is that there's no buffering: you always hear exactly the point the mpd player is at.
> if you are a great guy, great father, great boss, etc, but once in a while you get violently drunk and hurt people in your life - THAT thing offsets everything else.

So the Manager Tools podcast had a discussion about this I can't be bothered to find. Their advice, as best I recall it, was that you should focus on two things: fixing absolute deal breakers, and honing your strengths. Imagine you come up with N dimensions you want to rate yourself across on a 1 to 5 scale from worst to best. If you have any 1 out of 5's that are clearly blocking career progress, you should focus on that. If you're sitting at 2s and 3's, you should work on getting a 4 or 5, rather than leveling up across the board.

You have described scenarios that seem to be absolute deal breakers (likely because those are the memorable stories) but in most cases, I think the latter applies.

> Every year, his own developmental goal was to go learn the next C++ standard. And that would have been useless because he was already a great C++ programmer.

Well, those don't come around that often. But more to the point -- situation matters. If you're working on a major C++ product that is expected to last decades, the company is in trouble if _nobody_ is allowed to study improvements. Best case scenario the company has some talent management app that you can query to find out two other people intend to master C++20; worst case, every engineering manager focuses employees on short term wins and the mountain of tech debt becomes unclimbable. I fear though, that the worst case is also the average case!
If you are looking for an indoor rowing machine, I highly recommend a Concept 2, especially if you can find a used one locally.

It may seem expensive at first but if you decide you don't like it, you'll easily sell it for the price you paid. With any other rowers, you may have a hard time finding a buyer.

Concept 2 is pretty much the gold standard for every rower around the world so you'll always find someone looking to buy one.
That product had an Intel CPU and AMD GPU connected via PCIe on the same package, not the same die. It was a neat experiment, but it was really just a packaging trick.

It's impossible to talk about how dangerous psychedelics are without context of the dosage as well as the setting for higher doses.

Yeah, I think it's more about CF hemming them in, curtailing growth opportunities. Especially since the line until recently had been "use Cloudflare and get free transit between CF and Backblaze B2!" Haha, so much for that.

I don't think they're targeting Backblaze, but their position as the foremost middleman of the Internet means they're going to hurt direct competitors and partners pretty much any time they launch a product, until they're out of partners that host "cloud services". Which is a position Cloudflare put themselves in entirely on purpose.
I don’t know if it’s the best display they offer, but my T490 has a 1440P HDR IPS panel that suits me fine. I’d consider it more than “just okay”.

That said, I agree with your general point because all the other screen options were hot garbage.
I could have been a bit more precise, I guess you could always exercise with 100 meter (running) sprints and then get a 10-20 second workout that leaves you pretty drained too... That said there are some crazy youtube videos too for 100 meter rowing [0].

For me the key difference is feeling more thoroughly drained, legs mostly, core, arms, back.

Roko's Basilisk is not a thing. It's just a repackaging of the idea that God or Jesus or whatever is watching over you at all times, so you better please him or you will burn in hell for all eternity. But this time with AI instead of spirits because it originates from a community that considers themselves highly rational, and therefore rejects using religion as a foundation for decision making. But an all-powerful omniscient AI, now that's something they can get behind because that's not religion, that's technology!

> Agree- I have been largely disappointed by USB-C.

Also: the cockamamy version/naming convention(s) of the latest USB revisions.
Given that we're already 5+ years into Apple's USB-C revolution, I'm not so confident that this is going to happen. I'm going to keep using my USB-A peripherals for a long time, and more importantly, mice, yubikeys, keyboards, and a whole lot of other things are still largely sold with USB-A. Some of those have replaceable cables... but it's still a lot of effort to move away from that.

Furthermore, ditching all of those USB-A accessories and cables that still work fine just feels wasteful. If the only thing you're throwing them away for is compatibility, and not some feature that's actually improving them, even more of a waste. It's just churn to push more tech company profits.
