The X200 officially only supports 2x2GB, but seems to work fine with 2x4GB, as long as it's the correct type of ram (single-sided if I remember correctly). So I need to find the right type of ram and it's something I plan to upgrade, but didn't get to it yet.

Ambergris comes from sperm whales, a toothed whale that mainly eats squid, not krill.
I used to be a Copyleft zealot. Thanks to the emergence of AWS and GCP, I’ve come around to being OK with licenses like Elastic, and if I start a software company in the future, I wouldn’t rule out protecting myself by licensing critical parts of my code with Elastic or a similar license.

I don’t even agree that these kinds of licenses are inherently “anti-FOSS”, but I do object to them being portrayed as actual FOSS licenses. “Source-available” is a reasonably well-defined term that should be used more often in these kinds of situations.

Edit: “You’re either with us or against us” is corrosive whether it’s in war, politics, software licensing, or any other realm.
Because no reason, as this article shows.
I'm very happy with Code not having any kind of toolbar in it. One of the things I did in my Emacs config for Windows was disable its toolbar, because it's just a waste of space when you do most things with keystrokes. It's the same with Code; a toolbar would just be a distraction and a reduction of the editing area for no real advantage.
The whales are a “weir” on the iron flow from surface to abyss, causing a growth in algae and krill.

The iron comes in from sediments and river water, into algae, into krill… who go down one of two paths:

- whale food

- marine snow

The whales are keeping the population of krill higher than background by recycling the iron to the surface (and new algae) rather than it falling to the bottom each generation.

If you remove the whales, the iron exits the system faster and the “fill level” of both algae and krill falls. You’re correct the iron can only be in one at a time — but the whales recycling it keeps more total iron in the system.

Maybe emphasis on conceptual understanding vs. calculation is what we need to be driving at. Higher level math is not focused on getting exact answers. I always thought that starting out with set theory would be a better as it is the historical precursor calculus anyway. Most calculus courses seemed to be focused on the memorization of techniques that don't make much sense until you take an analysis course. Atleast set theory gives you a foundation for understanding probability which gives you a foundation for stats.
You will also find more experts in the practicalities of employing children where child labour is legal (or at least de facto tolerated). This doesn't mean that a billionaire who insist that everyone who objects to him hiring children to work in his factories is ignorant is correct, and the experts who think it's a bad idea just haven't employed enough children to know anything about the consequences.

Permanent accommodation which is multiple doors away from the nearest natural light source, relies on artificial means to circulate air and has a distinct lack of exits might find a few more supporters than child labour, but funnily enough the laws ended up in place for similar reasons. We saw what happened when we assumed that people must know best because they were rich enough to pay people to agree with them (and others were too poor and uninformed to have much choice)

What is trivially obvious is that you won't have a building design with windows in bedrooms if the person funding the design makes funding contingent on the building not having windows in bedrooms, as Munger states he's doing. In all probability the experts hadn't built masses of windowless cells backing onto windowless kitchens connected via windowless corridors to the outside world before (the reason the design is controversial, after all, is that its not exactly standard building practice in the US either) and probably had plenty of ideas on how to maximise floorplan whilst guaranteeing natural light to inhabited spaces, but they detailed this design because the person cutting the cheques told them to. Your implicit argument that a design constraint imposed by the ego of a billionaire design dilettante is likely to yield better advice than a design constraint imposed by regulators based on decades of built environment research is far from trivially obvious...

And if Munger had some insight the regulators missed, it's not exactly evident from the bizarre set of contradictions he offers up in the interview..

It seems to me that "general purpose" was a big driver of PC's and phones.

PCs are good for word processing, games, scientific computing, tracking satellites, etc.

The appeal of a smartphone is that it replaces a dumb phone, a walkman, TV set, video game console, watch, and many other things.
I'm not saying nothing is secure, I'm saying that there's no way to be sure.

Can you provide an example of a treatment people would like that 'big pharma' wouldn't produce because they couldn't make a profit on it?

This is such a ridiculous argument, IMO. As a thought experiment consider something like cancer treatment. If some pharma company researcher found a way to 100% prevent or reverse cancer, why would the company hide that? In the best case, they could make a ton of money from it by selling it cheap to everyone. In the worse case, they could make a ton of money selling it to the ultra wealthy with an obscene price tag. If they tried to hide it, the researcher would share the information elsewhere, no?
Yeah I was super impressed by him. Unfortunately I never got to participate, because I was too busy to follow up.

This would be acceptable to me if the vaccinations were in any way comparable. The diseases you speak of have been known for centuries (I am comfortable being wrong on that) and the vaccines have been tested and are understood as part of being distributed for decades.

This is a common argument, and honestly it's garbage.

Contrast Security Adds Serverless Security for AWS Lambda
This comment applies to more of my real-life interviews than any other.

So many ask, "How do you do X?" and the correct answer in a real job situation is always either "Look up the documentation for X, and do it that way.", or "There is a 20-year-old open-source library for doing X, so I'd use that."

I am not a walking catalog of esoteric programming knowledge. When working, I have 24-hour access to all official documentation, as well as all blogs, projects, and message boards on the Internet. The first step in solving any problem is checking to see if someone else already solved it.

The same goes for the brain teasers. If you can look up the problem on the Internet, I probably saw it first. Your original, non-plagiarized riddles, please, or don't bring it in to the interview.
I'd wager iMessage and Snapchat are big reasons why iPhone is huge with young Americans. Snapchat's Android version is considered to be significantly worse than Apple's. Not sure if that is still the case now, but bad first impressions persist for a long time.

Except you're not actually talking about CSS. You're talking about CSS + a high-abstraction methodology.

Everyone who uses CSS uses a methodology, and that methodology comes with its own abstractions. For example, Tailwind is low abstraction; all you need to learn is how the config works and naming, which is relatively intuitive and can be learned in a day or two. After that you're dealing with mostly straight CSS properties.

Most methodologies people actually use when they implement "vanilla CSS" or SASS impose a high level of abstraction—naming, which classes do what, which classes map to which elements, how the DOM hierarchy must be structured, etc. Just because these things aren't necessarily committed to code anywhere (yikes) doesn't mean there's not a complex abstraction layer.
This is the dream, but outside of government intervention I don't think it will ever be realized. There's no effective standards body, and the big players have little interest in sharing their data in any robust way. There's so many devils in the details of these specifications.
> There’s a lot of value and creativity embodied in well written applications

My experience writing patents:

1. Engineer/scientist writes up a very clear and understandable description of the thing. Perhaps including some pseudo-code, diagrams, or derivations along the way, but in any case definitely a high value add description rather than a dump from a git repo. On this we can agree.

2. Engineer/scientist presents this description to lawyer(s), often in the form of a powerpoint.

3. Lawyers then mangle the clean description beyond recognition.

There's something very, very, very broken about the patent application/review process. Patents should be written for makers to use and only incidentally comprehensible to legal professionals, not the other way around. After all, isn't encourage dissemination of knowledge the whole point of patents?

Take a look at Hammerspoon[0] for this if you haven't already. It requires some work to get it working the way want (you'll be writing some basic Lua code) but it's by far the best, all-in-one solution I've found for this problem on macOS. It has a ton of built-in modules for automating things including being to setup hotkeys globally as well as modal/on per-app basis

The big problem doesn't exist in Java, as it's being compiled, and all classes used are fully qualified in the bytecode.

In source-based languages, if a library adds some class, you'll get into some trouble. In Java, this will also happen at source level, but results in not being able to compile.

It's marketed at the slightly-adventurous enthusiastic middle-aged middle-manager. As such, they are probably quite receptive to a bit of showmanship along the lines of Q (as in Bond, not Star Trek).

That segment is, indeed, also the most likely to consider themselves to be extremely rational people who despise appeals to emotions and will always opine that advertising doesn't work on them, and they would prefer just the tech specs, black on white.

And yet they are buying something that, for the vast majority, will be used as a toy.[0]

Good marketing manages to bridge this contradiction with an assortment of terms like "10-Bit D-Log" set in action movie fonts and colors. Who doesn't want the D-Log?

0: That's not an insult. There's nothing wrong with fun. Indeed, it's the only real purpose life may have. But still, accusations of being interested in a toy would offend them, if being offended didn't happen to also be something they leave to lesser people.

This is the type of investing one (at least me) dreams of doing if you're fortunate enough to get to $B+ in net worth. Sam knows enough people who knows how this tech works to get a read on quality / achievability, and if he gets it right (however challenging/unlikely), it means incredible things. If it doesn't work, whatever -- at least he's shooting at something interesting. And talk about something intellectually interesting to be involved with -- it must be a collection of great minds at this company.
What is the point of that?

Edit: I'm not trying to be (too) pedantic. But the brief investment announcement went to the trouble of saying "they built a generator that produces electricity" and (effectively) "but no net electricity".

Isn't thathat generator a nothing-generator then? Why even mention it?
That's a really great idea, I'll add that for the next release for sure! Thanks!
Source available != open source.

I have the source to Windows, that doesn't make it open source.

There are lots of projects with full source on GitHub that don't have a LICENSE at all, which means that despite having access to the source code you have no rights to store or use them at all (under copyright law).

The definition of what counts as free software/open source was settled a long time ago. This isn't some pet crusade.

I cannot believe there's any argument about this. There are literally thousands of references. Below, are links to the first few references that I found.

Note: you'll see that in the first link in item #5 the comment about the strategic nature of this information, that means don't expect to get how-to-do-it plans from the military but you can bet your house to a brick that the military is deeply involved in gravity detection (specifically because, like inertial navigation, it's silent and doesn't broadcast its presence).

Also note the dates, this stuff goes back to even before the 1970s, the technology is now very mature.

>C and C++ are also dynamic then

More correctely : C/C++ + Windows, because Windows is the runtime implementing the dynamicity, the language standards alone say nothing about generating executables or operating on them, for all they care you can generate .class files from them and obtain the same benfits of java classes, it still would be the java runtime doing all the work. Java, in contrast, defines the executable generation and runtime loading to be part of the language semantics, anything you write that can't do what they say is by defintion not a "java runtime". It's like the difference between the process abstraction in Erlang and the process abstraction in linux-hosted C.
