What about modern society drives the need for such widespread use of antidepressants?

Honestly, the "about" is that we've developed medicines that aren't nearly as horrible as the medicines of yesteryear. Prozac wasn't marketed until the 80's, and a lot of other things have been marketed since then. Marketing is key too - it is really hard to take this stuff if you don't know something is available. And misery has been with us for quite some time.

Is that something we should be willing to give up?
Well, no. Giving up antidepressants means that people suffer more. We could work on reducing the general population's suffering and anxiety. We aren't 100% sure on how to do this, it seems, but we know things like easily affordable health care and a safety net helps out lots.

It hasn’t always been this way, has it?
Actually, yes. And no. I'm not convinced that housewives that used to take vallium in the 70's were taking it because they were happy, for example. We didn't always think to write about this stuff - doubly so when going on about it could get you in a non-modern mental hospital. The 'no' is simply because we can do something about it now. I like to think we are more compassionate overall now, but I have no real reason to think this.

Part of what I find odd is that these definitions seem to envision a separation between designimg software and actually writing the code — but, in my experience, it's much more common for those roles to be combined (and has been for quite a number of years)
I wish they would extract their GUI layer as some framework. It's so good that would be perfect for many programs.
The claim I've heard is that intel 7 (previously 10nm) is approximately as good as tsmc's 7nm (but which 7nm?). It sounds like most reviewers seem willing to accept that it's at least a good enough match that you're unlikely to do better.

I mean, those literal nm measurements had no reasonably obvious basis in measurement for either intel or TSMC even before the intel rebrand, so...

It'd be nice if they advertised with a few real benchmarks (e.g. logic density + sram density, some kind of clockspeed metric, some kind of powerleakage metric)... but as is, it's just a branch anyhow.

Whether it "is" a 10nm process depends on what your definition of "is" is ;-). It's certainly not the case that a transistor is 10nm large, not even close.
Imagine risking $8,000, watching it go to $5.7 billion a year later, not cashing out and going down as the biggest diamond hands in history.

At the very least you could create a commemorative diamond hands NFT collection and walk away with a few million.
zswap does not compress-on-disk either (I wish it did). The difference is just an implementation detail into how both plug into the kernel but the goal is the same on both.

I agree nvm is suboptimal. I've been doing web-related things for a living since 1998 and I care about tooling. YMMV but I have a strong preference for managing node versions via `n` (installed via tiny util `n-install`).

- zsh (via brew)

- n-install -> n -> node (/npm)

- yarn (via npm i -g)

So for this shiba thing, dude holding 8k worth, I guess his theory was something like "Internet people love Shibas, they're funny and kawaii, bet people will buy it as joke! Bet I'll make bank!" - and they did?
A couple of thoughts:

- This would only be the "greatest trade ever" if they actually cash out, i.e. realise the paper profits. The other two examples of "greatest trades ever" did realise their profits. There are of course questions as to whether they could in this case.

- Assuming they could cash out and make $5bn, and if they did, who would the losers be? In the case of the George Soros trade, he made his billion at the expense of the British tax payers, who collectively had to pay an extra £3.3 billion taxes, and mortgage payers, who saw their interest rates shoot up to 15%. In this case, presumably it would be all the people who bought SHIB for a higher price than that at which it settles after cashing out, plus everyone else on the planet who suffers from the social, political and environmental fallout from cryptocurrencies. That $5bn would have to come from somewhere.

Collections and objects have fundamentally different purposes. An object's job is to anchor a bit of geometry information (e.g. a mesh) in the scene. Collections serve as hierarchical grouping and instancing. Instancing is specifically intended to not produce deep copies of objects. This is essential for creating some types of really complex scenes. Any modifier - destructive or otherwise - requires one or more deep copies to act on. Providing modifiers on collections isn't good UX because it blurs the line between what is and isn't an instance.

Its only hard to read because you don't know the language, otherwise, its fairly straightforward. Although the Applicative type would require some research. I would much rather use a language like this, that can create enough abstraction to enforce consistency throughout the codebase, rather than relying on boilerplate conventions.

> What's the theory behind them?

There is no theory, each one is different. Some propose different ways to do transactions, or different scaling solutions, different governance, different ways to do smart contracts etc. Some are poor solutions, others are outright scams.

BTC and ETH aren't special, they're just big. BTC has the market place it has because it was first, not because it's better in any technical way. Similarly with ETH - it has a large community but it isn't necessarily better at smart contracts (or it might be - people will argue about this indefinitely).

"So all that is required for correctness is that a process fail-stops in the presence of a detectable disk fault."

Yes, except the PAR paper goes into many more storage faults. Recovering from these is not trivial and needs to be integrated into the consensus protocol, something not specified by Paxos.

For example, how can a single replica even detect that it had a disk fault if the last I/O it acknowledged externally was simply never written to disk at all, despite an fsync barrier? To recover from this correctly at the consensus layer, you would need your consensus protocol to also include and run a recovery protocol at startup, akin to Viewstamped Replication's 2012 Recovery Protocol. Of course there are details I am leaving out here, but the point should hopefully be clear, it's not obvious or trivial when a storage fault model is assumed.

I would highly recommend the PAR paper to you, if you have not incorporated it already into Cassandra.

And because this is not only about correctness, you also want your system to be able to recover and to be highly available in the presence of storage faults. Otherwise, the redundancy afforded by the consensus protocol and replication is not really being fully utilized and resources are being wasted.

> Assuming they could cash out and make $5bn, and if they did, who would the losers be?

Your losers scenario requires that SHIB declines materially after the buyers pick up the $5b of the crypto (such that the buyers inevitably end up losing money). You've built that assumption in and it's incorrect to automatically assume that, it's a central flaw in your premise.

There are not losers in every economic transaction in fact. The buyers may end up losing money.
I'm in Prague but not Czech. Tech scene here is strong. Good technical schools and almost all of the major players have offices here - Microsoft (Skype team), SAP, AWS, Google. A lot of startups too and a few game studios. If you're a Senior dev you can expect to make at most about 60-80k USD / year, more typically 50-60k. Managers can make more but no one makes Amazon USA type salaries here.

I work remote freelance for US companies and charge USD, so that could be an option too if you are coming from there. Not sure what you define as "interesting or cool" for work but I would imagine you can find it.

"There's little space for compassion and sociability"

I would argue there is more space now than there used to be.

I mean, women were basically property at one point, with changing degrees of freedom. You might not get out of the house much, depending.

Folks working as servants around 1900 basically had to do what their employers said, even if that meant you simply weren't allowed to have a romantic partner.

We kept slaves, and unfortunately, some folks still do.

We are probably lucky to spend only 8 hours a day on things, and I'm really happy that housework doesn't take up a lot of time now. Doing housework or working long hours doesn't grant you much space for compassion nor sociability.

The television and feeds are hobbies and entertainment. The folks in the past did similar stuff, and they had their own outcries - books, bicycles, women's ankles, and so on.

Drinking has been with us for literally Millenia. The amount of drunkards has varied alongside whatever it is we feel is "too much" - in other words, drinking daily wouldn't be strange if that is in the culture, but it is possible that same culture would frown on daily drunkenness.
It's not a zero-sum game. Even if it was, the cost would be carried by the people paying $5bn for a shitcoin. The pollution etc. are just externalities and not necessary.

Agree with your points, but the HTML5 video tag is still broken.

For example, on many browsers (Chrome and Safari at least) if you put a video on loop, with certain sizes, the internal logic makes it re-download the same video ignoring any server cache headers. That's it, if you leave a browser open with the same video in loop, it will suck your bandwidth forever.

I think the same happens if you seek through video playback.

To avoid this you need to put in some javascript that preload the whole video and make it a blob, or something similar.
> In the long run, Apple will dominate the laptop market, because there's a substantial tech advantage that Intel can't easily mitigate/reduce

Tech advantage is not what drives sales in laptop market. Price does. Unless Apple comes up with a $600 entry-level MacBook SE, to think that "Apple will dominate the laptop" is just absurd.
I mean.. I just followed a seminar talk about methane emission detection from an aircraft in the US. For this you often fly in lines to cover an area fully.

The speaker finished up with a screenshot from a youtube video where an UFO enthusiast actually followed the aircraft by car and came to the airport to look at it. It didn't help that the aircraft was rented from a company that usually rents to military.

40k views on a video that claims they released radioactive insects on that flight. (It was a spectrometer onboard...) The video is gone now, and we can only speculate what the people behind it think about that. How does one deal with this in a satisfying manner?

40k views on a video about methane emission detection would be amazing! A fraction of those 40k people in the area with knowledge of the problem and the same enthusiasm could probably easily stop all these emissions as well.

(Apart from that.. if anyone wonders.. talk to us! (and please don't seem like a nutjob..) This is research paid by your taxes and on your behalf, and if you come with journalistic interest we might just open the doors and, y'know, let you have a very close look at things.)
