Armen was very passionate about the value of "strats" (GS's own term for "quants", and later broadened to include software engineers and data scientists).

A favorite quip of his:

At GS, I'm like an arms dealer. When a desk has a problem, I send in the strats, and they blow away all the competition!

Also, SecDB's core idea is not just tight integration between the backend and development environment, but that all objects ("Security" in SecDB lingo) were functionally reactive.

For example, you would write a pure function that defines:

Price(Security) = F(stock price, interest rate, ...)

When the market inputs changed, Price(Security) would automatically update (the framework handled the fiddly bits of caching intermediate values for you, so even an expensive Price function is not problematic).

This is loosely the same idea that drives React, ObservableHQ, Kafka, and other event-streaming architectures, but I first encountered this ~15 years ago at a bank.

Word. If you have regular backups, and if some downtime is not really a problem, it might be fine to use web server hosting, e-mail (and in extreme cases even DNS hosting), from some fly-by-night el cheapo provider. But your domain name registrar? Pick them carefully, don’t skimp, and make sure they have good support. Because when things go pear-shaped, you really want to be able to actually talk to someone to change your web server or e-mail DNS records (or even DNS servers) to somewhere else.

Full disclosure: I work at such a registrar. No, you’re probably not in our target market.

You never "really owned" a TV because they were never open source. If the feature never activates, it never affects the user in any way and it may as well not exist. If it does activate wrongly, you have consumer law and protections to get your money back.
Exactly, the banks don't report that YOU paid money to others on a loan, the bank has it's own reporting requirements, hence you are not liable. Interestingly, financial institutions (which includes exchanges) are currently exempt from the reporting requirements in this law "the only businesses that are exempt from section 6050I are banks and financial institutions."

So my take is they haven't figured out how to regulate the institutional aspect, they're simply attempting to monitor person to person transfers as a first pass. And this makes sense given the wash sales and other tricks people are trying to pull via NFTs and the like.

I've had some success with npm, snowpack, mocha, typescript as that sort of stack for more "vanilla" efforts that feel rather more "modern". I think mocha is easier and cleaner than jest. I like keeping all of my transpilation to just Typescript without needing a massive Babel install/pipeline. snowpack (https://www.snowpack.dev/) right now I think is in a sweet spot of a better "ES Module native" developer experience than webpack and has better defaults when left unconfigured. (So much so that while there are snowpack templates/generators provided by the project I mostly don't use them other than for reference.)

I really appreciate how they have separated the computational layer from data storage. Want to do a massive pre-calculation without disturbing others? Run it in a separate warehouse.

Also the underlying copy-on-write datastructure is a timesaver, you can clone (like taking a backup & restoring it but with a new name) a 100 GB database in a few tens of seconds or minutes. Also if you run an UPDATE and forgot to include a WHERE clause you can retrive the old data via time travel. You can execute queries directly to an older version of the table (or database) without having to restore it from a backup!

There is an about 500 ms overhead for each query, so it isn't suited for all use cases though.

I've had eye injections three times now and never saw the needle. I can't imagine you you could, since the eye can't focus on the needle since it's inside the lens which is necessary to focus what you see outside the eye onto the retina. I don't see how the fovea could receive a focused image of the needle without help from the lens.

It's because Tailwind looks good. It has well designed defaults & the documentation makes it look beautiful. I've used Tachyons before & enjoyed it, but it looks ugly in comparison.

If you're picking a framework that will eventually be used by developers who might not have any design skills, which would you prefer?

Tachyons shadows: https://tachyons.io/docs/themes/box-shadow/

Tailwind shadows: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/box-shadow

Tachyons colors: http://tachyons.io/docs/themes/skins/

Tailwind colors: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/customizing-colors

Even something like floats look better in Tailwind documentation despite being the same one line of CSS.

Tachyons floats: http://tachyons.io/docs/layout/floats/

Tailwind floats: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/float

Part of it is marketing and part of it is the novelty of using inline utility classes, but none of this explosive growth happens without a deep focus on design at every stage.

Documentation, defaults, examples, and color palettes all matter.

This is somewhat apples to oranges, but look at Bootstraps' navbar example page versus Tailwind's (paid) examples. One is a cluttered mess, the other is a carefully designed list.

Author here, most of the non-Tailwind CSS I write is browser-specific tweaks or hacks, and mostly for Safari.
I don't get why you wouldn't use LESS mixins or SASS class extensions (or whatever the modern equivalent of that is) instead of inlining each utility class directly into each div.

Having a name for each element in your markup is really powerful and useful, and it seems like the Tailwind approach exists specifically to avoid having to name things.

A recruiter is not your therapist. Don't treat them like one.
It isn't the electric car parts that are necessarily the bit that need to scale, though. The custom-manufactured sheet metal goes from being made out of house to owning your own metal-pressing facilities. The screws, fittings and hardware goes from "what we can buy off the shelf or pay to make custom" to "what's on the shelf was made initially for us". Same story for electronics.

It's not even just the input materials that are helped by two-order-of-magnitude scale differences; assembly is also affected. Say you're considering a $100k robot to replace some assembly step that is currently done by a $10/hr human. At Bollinger-scale, that robot needs to save an hour of labor for each unit to pay for itself in a year. At Ford scale, it needs to save 36 seconds.

Past that, engineering is affected too. At Bollinger, a $100k/year engineer can pay their own salary by shaving $10 off the unit cost. At Ford, that same engineer pays their salary if they reduce the unit cost by $0.1.

Lastly, there are huge NRE's that are inherent to developing a car for sale (or any product, really) that scale very sublinearly with volume (think regulatory compliance and crash testing, prototyping, tooling etc), but that are amortized much more quickly at 1M EAU than 10K EAU.

Given all that, it's astonishing that they are (hopefully) bringing this design to market at only ~2x the street price of the mass-produced competition.
> There's no way any of them will get close to 6 GHz without LN2.

No need for LN2, you could probably achieve this easily using a closed loop CO2 system. But I'm not aware of any such systems readily available. Kinda seems like an unfilled niche to me.

It's fascinating to see how knowledge evolves over time. So far most of the emphasis has been on the spike protein and its cleavage mechanisms. Now we start to see that may even be a relatively minor factor compared to the nucleocapsid.

It is quite important to understand all these things if we are seeing new variants arise and need to assess how dangerous they are likely to be. Most especially since vaccines are based on the spike protein on the premise that it is essential to the infectiousness. But what if a variant can arise with a highly compromised spike protein yet compensate enough to still be highly infectious due to other factors?

The most interesting thing is to think about where the other empty spaces in our knowledge are that are yet to be filled in - what will we know this time next year that will have us saying "previously we thought ...."
I don't know - I think all legal systems use precedents to a certain extent - they're just extremely formalized in America and Britain. Sorry but I'm not familiar enough with their system to reply with confidence but I would say that if a high court in a country rules a certain way, even if that isn't binding to future rulings, it will cause people to adjust their behavior to avoid falling into a trap that's been clearly called out already.

Uh, also, IANAL.

I owned a Pocket 1, and I'm still bitter about it.

After about a year of light use, the battery swelled up. Replacement batteries were out of stock and never replaced. The response was like, "Uh yeah old model. Sorry."
Lisp "lists" (cons pairs with terminating nil) act kinda sorta like sequences (although the elisp names don't agree with Common Lisp names)--until you need length() and your algorithm blows up to O(n^2) or you replace a value and your list walker blows itself into a mess. This is part of why Clojure shot the idea of building lists up from cons pairs and gave explicit syntax for certain sequence types and made them fundamental.

Which would be fine if all the pedagogy didn't teach stupid cons-pair lists and recursion as THE fundamental pieces of Lisp when they should instead have a gigantic red klaxon saying "Don't use these outside of toy programs as they're a maintenance and abstraction nightmare."

Other grief: #() syntax makes read-only vectors. The syntax for what is basically [] is every other language: (make-array 5 :fill-pointer 0 :adjustable t) I can go on and on and on about the usability disaster that are sequences and collections in Common Lisp. And then let's add the joy of a Lisp-2 on top of everything else.

The problem is that the Real Lisp Programmers know to ditch those and go grab better abstractions when doing Real Programming. However, the extra abstractions are just annoying enough that stuffing things into an unlabeled list is too convenient. So, you see a small number of good abstractions and a bunch of little unlabeled "containers" passing data around with cadr and caddr. There is a reason why a "labeled struct" is a fundamental part of most languages and gets its own syntax.

And even "Practical Common Lisp," which like I like very much, introduces macros before collections. And look at how much time it spends on vectors and hashes (which are FAR more important to building most programs) vs cons-type lists (this ratio holds even as far back as Touretzky in 1986--it's gotten a little better over the years). And then people wonder why nobody uses Lisp for real programming?

So, sure, you can use the Common Lisp standard--and get saddled with a bunch of good design decisions from 40 years ago that now look absurdly stupid.

Or, you can use Scheme which has nothing built in and construct it all yourself. Oh joy.

Alternatively, you can just use a modern language that made design decisions in merely the last decade.
I think the only way to make Emacs popular is to get more users. And in any of the over six thousand human languages in use today: "Emacs user" typically means "a programmer". Emacs desperately needs more programmers.

Unfortunately, many of the core Emacs developers are also FSF advocates. Some of them have very radical and uncompromising views. It sometimes feels like they have little understanding of the real world and the software industry in general, and they live in the 16th century equivalent of the computing world.

I mean, many of us (software developers) are very sympathetic to the cause and the idea of liberating all software, but sometimes it just gets too crazy. As if someone tried saving the world by harassing palm oil plantation workers in Indonesia: "Why don't you try planting cedar trees instead?". Vilifying and fighting the evil in the industry is right; punishing everyone indiscriminately - is not.

One of the latest examples: a question about LSP server implementation for Emacs Lisp - the verdict of the people in charge? Nope, we shouldn't do it because: "it would allow editing Emacs Lisp in non-free programs like VSCode". Seriously? IMO, it's not just a simple non-sense, it actually sounds like borderline narcissistic schitzo thinking.

Emacs codebase needs to adopt the ubiquitous and familiar model of issues and pull requests instead of clinging to the outdated way of email threads and patches. That's what made Neovim popular. That's how VSCode achieved in just five years, what was like twenty for Emacs. That's why the most innovation in Emacs happens today outside of its core. Today GitHub, GitLab, and other Git forges have so much Emacs Lisp - it's probably the most widely used Lisp in the industry (maybe even comparable to Clojure and Common Lisp). And guess what? Authors and maintainers of those awesome libs and packages not sending patches over email.

I don't think Emacs is going to fade away anytime soon. But the strategic mistakes made by the core decision-makers have done irredeemable damage, and Emacs now doomed to play catch-up.

Right now, AMD is selling every chip they make, so they're not making much for the low end. Intel's got quad core comet lake chips around that price, but they've also not been selling low end versions of their newer stuff either.

If Alder Lake's release signals Intel 10nm (aka Intel 7) finally working for desktop chips, then we may see products addressing the low end market again.

You should probably be able to limit power to 100W though; power targeting is definitely a firmware feature on AMD, and I'd be surprised if it's not available on Intel as well. If nothing else, you can just provide 100W worth of cooling, and thermal management should throttle back the power.

There is a large gap between Ada applications and BSPs. For example, you need bindings to the underlying hardware which are part of the vendor BSP: CubeMX from STM, SimplicityStudio from SiLabs, SmartSnippets from Dialog. Having to do that on your own is painful, it's a little better than an FFI, but you still need to prototype the object files you are binding to in Ada. This is what often stalls me. Fortunately TinyUSB is supported on all the major STM Lx parts.

I'm seeing bits and pieces of Ada on Arm showing up on the web, but without BSP support it isn't going to go very far. It will be a while before Ada can become a first-class embedded language on commodity parts, but this is a big step.
> Is your issue with the existing law or you feel crypto shouldn’t be treated like cash?

Both. This law is wrong (even without the crypto / DeFi elements) and crypto shouldn't be treated like cash. It's not property, or even a legally enforceable contract like the one that governs your relationship with your bank. From any reasonable perspective it should be classified as something akin to "goodwill" and not something the law should concern itself with.
