Yes, one very big advantage Apple has is focus, it's a benefit of "a stack they fully own". They are developing for a single customer, i.e. themselves.

Contrast the situation when developing something for a number of OEMs. Qualcomm would need to "convince" multiple players. Those potential customers will inevitably ask for a plethora of major and minor features to be included.

That takes more time and more engineering effort to accomplish. The resulting silicon often is an mishmash "or" of all the things asked for.

Many years ago I was a fly on the wall watching Intel's mobile group attempt to develop a product for the ultra-mobile market. Even having the original iPhone as an example, Intel people would demand many many additional useless features.

End result: Intel lost billions and never succeeded in that business.

Qualcomm will doubtlessly do better than Intel, after all they are already a big player in ARM. But how can merchant silicon compete with the incredible integration of Apple's current products, let alone with what Apple will have in a few years?

The article uses "lackluster" for Qualcomm's current products. Also for the future?
I've unsubscribed from all podcasts on Spotify almost 6 months ago now, and switched back to apple podcasts for some of the reasons above. I only use spotify for music. On the "Home" page of the app about 50% of my recommended content is still podcasts. I'm now considering going back to apple music too..

My experience with DD-WRT is that it took tons of tweaks and fiddling to get the same router to perform not quite as well as it did pre-flash, including manually tweaking the power outputs of the antenna to get a signal one room away. Recently I bought a new router with failover support and it's so nice that the basic (and advanced) things I want to use just work. Clean UI, sensible organization of settings, actually reliable documentation... all wonderful things. So unless you are okay with lots of fiddling and restarting your router 10-30 times over a weekend, maybe don't use DD-WRT. I have no experience with the others.
Well, that probably wasn't necessary. That's basically what home equity loans were supposed to be for, back before people started treating their houses as ATMs.
> Most search engines use something called a vector space model, where both user queries and documents are reduced to vectors (i.e. a fixed number of numbers). That is to say, the search engines are not looking at the meanings of the queries or the documents. Instead, they turned them both into some numbers. The search problem, is reduced to a problem of finding the similarity between the numbers representing the query and the numbers representing the documents.

I don't see how this is true for concordance-like searches (Trados-like, which seems to be what the article is concerned with - preferring the documents with all query words present in it, otherwise the documents with the most query words present in it, etc.). This sounds more like description of similarity useful for metric space indices or something like that.

PlanetScale engineer and Vitess contributor here. As a brief history, Vitess was originally developed as an open source project in YouTube, and then handed over to CNCF.

PlanetScale was created by authors of Vitess, and employs a team of Vitess developers and contributors. There are Vitess contributors outside PlanetScale, from companies such as Slack, Square, Nozzle, Pinterest and others (apologies to people/companies not mentioned).

Just to explain how we work, if you ever come by to KubeCon, you're likely to find our Vitess booth. It is normally staffed by PlanetScale engineers. But in that booth we wear the Vitess hat, not the PlanetScale hat. We want to respect Vitess for being its own open source project, which we share with our community friends from different companies.

Then again, as we employ many Vitess contributors, including the Vitess project leader Deepthi Sigireddi, we do pride in driving this OSS project from within PlanetScale. As we wear our PlanetScale hat, we give credit to the Vitess technology our product is based on.
I agree with your latter point, but not your former. The job market isn't that hot, and it's unsafe to be that optimistic. There's a lot of companies looking, but you need to be remarkably lucky or have something notable with your name on it (lucky) to land something that quickly. It's also cheaper than ever for any company to try and filter people out before anyone looks at your resume. You apply, and you get handed a multi-hour long coding test that they bought from HackerRank. Ya maybe you pass it or should be able to, but maybe you've been programming Vue for the last 6 months, they didn't speak to you, and so sent over a React test. Either way, it's an absolute shitshow to interview right now, with a lot of variability in all aspects.
> But I also don't use 100% of the features of libc or gtk if I'm building a GUI app in C.

That’s exactly my point. This is a tradeoff that’s inherent to software development and has nothing to do with the web or Node or NPM. You could just as well decide to write your desktop app with a much smaller GUI library, or even write your own minimal one, if the tradeoff is worth it to reduce complexity. (Example: you’re writing an app for an embedded device with very limited resources that won’t be able to handle GTK.)

Some of my favorite insights have come from realizing how concepts overlap disciplines. I remember the first time I recognized an overlap, and it led to a realization that the rules by which the universe operate crop up in every aspect of the experience of existing as part of it. Since then so many insights about so many things have come from similar understandings, such as how thermodynamics applies to informational organization, and even ways to think of problems come from such insights that can change your view of the world.
I went to change a password for a website I hadn't used in years.

Tried to log in using my old password (that I had saved in password manager):

ERROR: "Your password is too short, please try again".

What had happened is they'd changed the password length requirement some time over the years, meaning I couldn't log in using my old password.

So I thought I'd try and out smart it doing a password reset.

ERROR: "Your old password is too short, please try again"

i couldn't find any description of the main tower basement - it all sounds like the main tower slab mat is basically near the ground level. The garage is said to be under the small tower.

There are other SF high-rises using slab, yet their piles reach the bedrock. Also Millenium Tower is reinforced concrete instead of typical for such high-rises steel - it was more "economical" - and due to the leaning/sinking stress the concrete there is cracking.

The US Navy often scraps a nuclear vessel after the reactor times out, instead of overhauling the reactor. Something to think about.

I was alive before the internet. I've never really watched much tv.

And I don't have the time to tell you how much that sucked. You are stuck in whatever place you happened to be, especially as a child or not having much money. If you can't find folks to accept you, you are just cast aside.

I*m not sure how walking in sunshine was supposed to help me when folks assumed I was lesbian and freaking avoided me (they were half right, but I didn't deserve this). Or followed me around laughing, saying "She's soooo stupid!". And so on. Every. Single. Day. I finally made friends, and people would ask them why they were friends with me.

But yeah, I'll go off and walk in sunshine and everything will be OK.

On the other hand, I got older and found folks on the internet that accepted me. I could finally talk to people while being myself. I am in a stable relationship thanks to this (and moved countries: While some folks are anti-immigrant, more accept that I'm a bit weird and/or will explain social norms if I mess up).

You can keep your sunshine.
APNIC actually provide discounts if you are from a developing economy. However, in practice, I see huge amounts of abuse from this, people registering space for half the price then immediately leasing it for out of country use, etc.
NSF has an explicit requirement that all funded grants have not just strong "intellectual merit" but also "broader impact". The NSF webpage states

> Such outcomes include, but are not limited to: full participation of women, persons with disabilities, and underrepresented minorities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)

So the fact that grants are including words like "equity" is in no way a surprise. What's interesting to me is that this article fails to mention the NSF's broader impacts focus at all. A plausible hypothesis for why grants have been focusing more on "equity" is that NSF has always had this mission, and academics have just been getting better at fulfilling NSF's mission. I think this is closer to the truth than the proposed hypothesis that the mission of the NSF is changing.
You’re double counting that $70k. That’s interest on the $1M. Assuming rates stay at 7%, you’d get that $70k every year. You are correct that $70k wouldn’t go as far today due to inflation. But $70k per year was great money in 1996.

Related, my dad and a buddy invested $10k in a CD that yielded 21% back in 1984 I think. If the rates are high enough CDs can be an excellent investment. They’re basically risk free. My bank is offering 0.6% currently. Real rates are very negative right now.

An introduction to “introduction”: a common but rarely-named systems concept
I think there's a Chesterton's fence effect in play - there are factors in play beyond the simplicity sought by the author.

First, any system you come up with will depend on natural cycles - days to orbit the sun, days the moon takes to orbit the earth, variable day lengths, efficiency of verbal communication across cultures and languages, and a myriad different practical considerations constrain the design.

For example, I like weeks, but tendays aren't bad, either. I think you'd want a smallish subdivision of months, so with tendays you'd want to get rid of 31 day months, otherwise you'd have several oneday pairs each year. So 13 30 day months, or 11 34 day months and 1 25 day month, except on leap years.

Translating birthdays and holidays and all the cultural artifacts we attach to days in the current system would require massive effort, and all software everywhere that uses dates would have to be rewritten. You'd have to teach multiple generations both systems, and gradually update text to comply.

So back to the Chesterton's fence argument - much like the ten commandments, Christian humanism (those positive liberal effects, not the authoritarian organized religion travesies), Roman representative government, and so on, the artifacts that survive culling as humanity evolves are probably very deeply important. The "seven, plus our minus two" rule that demarcates human working memory is one, as mentioned in the article. The idea of setting aside one of every seven days as something akin to "sacred alone time" is the reason for weekends, and an anchor point for non- work socialization. The excuse is the religion, the practical impact is social health and stability.

Unless you can extract all the pragmatic but indirect and unspoken consequences of fundamental cultural institutions like the calendar, or the structure of language, or matters of principle and ethics and morality, you should be cautious about changing or discarding those things.

Human quality of life is better for more people in more places than at any time before in known human history, and that's because we have so many intertwined systems working together with the aim of improving well-being. It could very well be the case that the structure of the calendar is the way it is because it's a good enough match to something theoretically optimal that allows the smooth enough operation of everything else it touches on. Changing it might break the world in a subtle way.

However, if we as a society can't even agree to get rid of daylight savings, I guarantee it will be impossible to change the 7 day week.

You do know that all the mujahideen were Islamists, right? We are talking about Afghanistan.

The Mujahid group that was the least Islamist was led by the heir of a religious order and structured as such.

The OP's assertion are fully accurate. The CIA knowingly funded and fomented the rise of Islamic fundamentalism.

It is incorrect the relationship was fully indirect. The CIA directly met with militant Islamic fundamentalist groups, including inviting leaders to the USA, and directly funding them :

The author deeply misunderstands how WAND works, and "T-WAND" is just WAND. Once a pivot is found, you don't have to advance all the iterators that precede it, but just enough to disprove the current document, at which point a new pivot is chosen (this is equivalent to the heuristic described in the article).

The order in which iterators are tested against the pivot can be term cardinality ordering (which is one of the heuristics described in the original paper AFAIR). Then, the pivot documents are a subset of what the article calls the current "tier" (union of the k rarest terms).
That's a really weak gotcha: Perl 4 was deprecated 28 years ago and Perl 6 is a completely different language that's been called Raku since 2019. There are no dependencies to resolve between them. It's like worry about dependency resolution between Javascript and Java. They're not even the same platform.
Nor am I, but I don't think that's the problem.

It seems to me is that if you want to do that, you would use the value as a seed to set the internal state of the PRNG and then call the PRNG just once to get the hash value.

But in order to do that, you would have to derive the seed from the data in an appropriate way, which is basically the same exercise as defining a general hash function (i.e. projecting a data of arbitrary length into a set of values of fixed length).

So it looks like you are back to square one, more or less.
This is the direct result of the culture of tiny dependencies in JS and some other languages, but not all ecosystems are like this. If you choose to use node, this is where you end up, but it was a choice.

Many languages have a decent standard library which covers most of the bases, so it’s possible to have a very restricted set of dependencies.
The Saudis and Gulf states are told to pay and match the CIA or else..... Their heads will roll otherwise. Those colonies are used as ATMs for the national security state and the forced purchase of junk military gear, in addition to ensuring the petro dollar remains intact.
Perhaps the OP just wanted a simple custom algorithm that would be easy to integrate?

I do not understand why rejecting a million-lines-of-code dependency implies the person is a troll?
Am I the only to just say "fuck npm"? I've been saying it for a long time, but things like this confirm it.

Is it working, or is it mostly working with weird silent edge cases? (E.g. someone's secondary equipment has a hard-coded route for that prefix; the next router passes it on to the right place so no harm done, except if the routes shift in a particular configuration and then you get routing loops).
That's fantastic, thanks! Hardcoding my timezone is no problem, as long as I don't have to change the offset manually every six months. Thanks!
