This seems like the wrong target to me. Why not go after the user?

If there's a user that is going around disliking a ton of videos, especially on a single channel, and/or without watching some minimum time or % of that video, it seems likely that user is being abusive; so perhaps shadow-ban that user's votes?

Similar with new users.. disallow use of dislike completely until they've been around a while and built up some reputation/history (by watching, upvoting, etc). If the user is possibly a bot (I assume there's algorithms to determine confidence of bot vs real user), require more verification.

I'm sure there's a reason they're not taking this approach, but I find it hard to believe they're choosing they way they are based on the reason they're giving here.

This hasn't been my experience. Go is incredibly difficult to read because all Go code looks the so similar, lacking intentionality or style, and it's so verbose that it takes a very long time to grasp what any given thing does in totality.

Was watching YT shorts, and all you see is the likes. Lots of likes, and I was thinking who watches this crap.
Thankfully the comments made me realize I am not alone in this though. Wish I could have wasted less time by having the amount of dislikes listed.

Now I am going to have to do the same method on YT videos as I do shorts, where I go look at the comments first which is unfortunate.

Everyone can see the count on Stack Overflow, but there are several mechanisms in place to protect that count from all sorts of abuse (bots, tactical voting, second accounts etc.).

The same is simply not true of YouTube or any other kind of social media upvote/downvote system - anyone can sign up for an account, and their votes immediately count and have equal weighting.

The same is not true of Stack Exchange or HN, where you have to put a lot of effort in with a community to be able to downvote something.

Awesome, so if I'm understanding correctly it's analogous to, but better than, the lens modeling that a panorama stitcher will use, and its applications are as the calibration stage of an image stitching, 3D vision, object tracking, SLAM, structure from motion, and/or image-based measurement system?

I've been fascinated by these things since high school and as a teenager tried to make my own object tracking system for special effects for a student film (and obviously failed), but apart from running a Kinect-based home/art/museum automation startup for a while, my life path did not lead me into computer vision.
> Almost nobody is as constantly vehement as many journalists claim to be, and 100% nobody has a head that’s entirely filled with opinions that fit inside today’s rapidly shifting Overton Window.

Ooh, not only is "Overton" capitalized but so is "Window."

Even better-- since the main use of the term has been to elucidate changes to acceptable discourse over time, simply calling it a "shifting Overton Window" would be rather pedestrian. Rather than reflect honestly on the purpose of writing that sentence, the author seems to double down by adding the word "rapidly" to make the sentence appear as more than a mere truism.

In conclusion, I agree with the author's point that authors should stop lying to themselves and just write their actual opinions.

But seriously, solving writer's block seems ripe for disruption. How are there not already several Decentralized Apps in this space? Did the regulators beat us all to the punch?
Two things can be simultaneously true

- delivery was under-served and over-priced, and taxis charged too much, often because of viciously expensive auctions for limited legal taxicab slots, with the city raking it in and the drivers having to recoup it from fares

Everything you say compfort me in the fact this is going to be bad. Everything I read in the article about generics compfort me in the fact this is going to be bad.

Example: first you agree with me "its already easy to write bad code", well you agree then its gonna be easier. Your example about io.Copy. Yeah bingo, absolutely io is the exception, the only case I know in 25 years of programming that is made tasteful with generics. Actually its the only case I know in 25 years of programming where a diamond-like multi inheritance structure is okay. IoBase, IoBaseRead:ioBase, IoBaseWrite:ioBase, Io:ioBaseRead, ioBaseWrite. You get the idea.

Do you realise the language grammar is modified? They are modifying Go's grammar. Man, they gotta have some balls to make virtually a new language after 12 years of success.

Im open. I am. But the idea is bad on paper, now the signs are too.
I only use Go for two things: CLIs and web services. There are a lot of frameworks out there to help you develop web services in Go, but what really impresses me is that you don't really need them - you can get surprisingly far just using the standard library.

But if you can't communicate and think while under a bit of interview pressure, then you're not likely to be able to cope long-term in a development job. I don't think the way most companies interview is great. Particularly, I don't think whiteboarding is a decent use of anyone's time in a face to face meeting.

At the same time, if I ask you a question and your eyes roll into the back of your head because you can't handle the pressure of coming up with an answer at a time where the result of getting it wrong is literally the status quo... then you probably aren't going to be the person I want in the long-run anyway. I'm hiring you to be an employee, not a cog.

I live an hour away from the nearest airport. Of course public transit can take me, but it usually would take me anywhere between 2-3 hours if I account for all the transfers I missed. I started using Uber and it charged me about $60, which I found reasonable for a ride that long. In pandemic it became $150-200, and now it still regularly hovers around $120.

I've realized that I can just drive to the airport, pay for long term parking ($13/day) and still come out even with Uber fares for trips as long as 3 weeks. This is something I used to do a decade ago. It's hilarious that we have gone a full circle on this.

When I use AI I consider the entire algorithm as part of it. There is a signal -- a human censor says this cannot be shown-- and then generative expansion of that signal across nodes on a network.

It doesn't matter on what machine the algorithm runs on -- wetware or cloud -- it gets incorporated into a larger, generated intelligence.

Same math.

To me, the greatest advantage of Go is the build time, which is almost instant. So you get the joy of programming like in Python/Js, being able to test very quickly your code, without having to deal with stupid errors coming from type mismatch or function parameters.

Plus, you get the performance of a compiled language, with a simple syntax. Sure, you get just slightly better results with C/C++/Rust, but then you deal with complicated OS level calls, memory and library deployment issues (problems fixed by Go). Yes, a few benchmarks show C#/Java almost as fast, but at the price of a highly optimized syntax not seen in any average programmer. An average guy get superb performance with Go without complications from day 1.

And absent object oriented features are quickly forgotten.

That works great for compressed textures like DDS or ASTC.

Unfortunately, the hardware decoders for proper codecs like jpeg or h.264 typically come with APIs prohibitively complicated to use, unless the app is a video player and needs to consume these APIs anyway, despite the complexity.
At that level of pay you stop caring for anything making sense?

Can confirm: will easily pass over candidates that lack self-esteem and confidence, even if they possess strong technical backgrounds. Nobody cares that you can program in C, they just want to know if you're going to be a dick to work with and whether you're actually going to get shit done.

I bought a new car in 2019 and it has about 10,000 miles on it. I could sell it for what I paid for it, which is completely absurd. If I knew I’d be able to buy another car in ~6 months, I’d sell it in a second. But the auto industry backlog is looking more like 12-18 months to me.
You are wrong. Every now and then I need find and watch instruction video on how to do something, like how to install my old ancient printer on Windows 10, or how to disassemble my laptop, or how to flush my water heater. If I see a bad like/dislike ratio I can know right away the video is useless.
As I hinted, I work from home, as does my spouse. We could share her car, as we often do now. My car is just a luxury/convenience item at this point, not a necessity.

If a dollar is defaulted, I'm not sure it's accurate to say that one dollar is destroyed (as opposed to moved), let alone ten? If the borrower defaults, it is the same as the borrower owing the depositor $1 (the bank is in a sense acting like a risk-absorbing and expertise-adding middleman between the depositor and the borrower).

And doesn't whether that dollar is "destroyed" depend on why the borrower can't pay it? If it's because someone else got ≥ $1 richer off the borrower, then it seems to me like the supply of money in the economy as a whole hasn't actually gone down.

The world's burning and you're nitpicking about this...
Elm kinda had such guardrails but they are hindrance, so it's all about balance (or letting them off purposely - which makes lang implementation hard as you need to compile half-broken programs). That's why I think interpreted code will win due to productivity gain or we get something that compiles even faster than Go or real hot-reload.
If that's what the OP meant, yes I agree.
Rivian is investing aggressively to ramp up production to ~1M vehicles/year by 2030.

If average selling price per vehicle in 2030 is more or less similar to Tesla's today -- call it $50K/vehicle, to keep the arithmetic simple -- then a market cap of $100B today is equal to ~2x the annual revenue forecast for 1M vehicles in 2030, assuming everything goes well and there are no major hiccups along the way.

These figures strike me as as extremely over-optimistic, to say the least, but at least I can see how smart people might be rationalizing the purchase and ownership of Rivian stock at this valuation to themselves so they can sleep soundly at night.[a]

--

[a] I mean, it's not impossible: Tesla's run-rate production and sales now exceed 1M vehicles/year, and the new Tesla gigafactories already built or being developed are supposed to bring production to 4-5M Tesla vehicles/year well before the end of the decade.

Hard to read it as anything other than epic FOMO on the next Tesla.
I don't get the valuation. To me it seems like like Rivian is behind on their original product promise. The current models listed on the site have a range of only ~300 miles, while a lot of the original hype and excitement was around vehicles with ~400 miles of range. I wonder if this product really makes sense right now. If you're hauling people and gear, or going offroad, or towing, you will have even less efficiency. In a gas vehicle you can carry jerry cans and refill your tank. With an electric truck or SUV without a range extender or an option to carry an extra battery pack or whatever, you have no way to work around this. As such I can't see these really serving as a practical "adventure" vehicle even though that's what the marketing is.
Nand2tetris, which is far more sophisticated than Code, would be a good background (highly recommended), but it has almost nothing to do with the technology actually used in a wafer fab.

The relevant disciplines are physics (mostly condensed matter), inorganic chemistry, industrial engineering, and electronics.

Find a school that teaches semiconductor engineering, take their courses through vlsi and ASICs.

Then land a job at a fab and the rest is learn on the job training.

It’s like the difference between a PC board fab and an electronics design engineer, taken to the google power.
I read the S-1--it's one of the worst I've ever seen, to be honest. Rivian has no strategy whatsoever. Their FleetOS is 100% built to Amazon's spec. If Amazon were to withdraw support for any reason, they would have invested billions in the truck/software R&D only to have basically no one to sell to.
Thanks. How about a framework which has all these things stitched together already? For example, a good templating engine and an ORM that supports DB migrations out of the box?
