I read her book, it's quite good and makes good points. I studied economics and her points make sense. There truly is a big value hole, intellectually. Our current default is actually not a theory of value at all, it's a hand waive that allows us to not get stuck in a deep conversation about what is worthwhile.

Of course the problem is that any theory of value like the labor theory has massive holes as well. That's why the current subjective value theory is not really a theory: it's not wrong, it's a placeholder.
> Soon I was auditing new services for "multi-cloud compatibility", ensuring that instead of using the premade SDKs from AWS, we maintained our own.

I wonder if a useful middle-ground is to have lint checker rules to enforce using a blessed subset of a cloud provider's SDK. So that some thought/effort must be put into using a new feature?
Oh thank you, English is not my native language. Didn't know that there are two words, afterward and afterword =\
I would say a fraction of the features. If you don't need those features, that's fine of course. But in my experience, I end up using a lot of those features when dealing with real world customer requirements. I guess if you implement search for some website where search quality just doesn't matter, light weight is fine. For everything else, using proper solutions might be the wiser thing.

In terms of performance you see a lot of comments that are stating X is faster than Y. I'd take such comments with a large grain of salt. Unless those lightweight alternatives actually do the same things you can't really compare the performance. It's not that hard to make indexing fast in Elasticsearch if you disable all the features that make it slower. Of course if you don't actually have those features it's going to be fast by default because it simply isn't doing anywhere close to the same things.

Elasticsearch is actually pretty damn fast even when you do use its many features. The reason is that it relies on in memory caches, thread pools, etc. and that a lot of very smart people have been implementing and optimizing very efficient algorithms in Lucene for the last 25 years. Elasticsearch actually can run with as little as 256MB but of course you are not going to be able to cache a lot of data with that and performance will suffer accordingly. Mostly large heap sizes with Elasticsearch are all about using larger caches. It also relies on memory mapped files and OS file caches for that. That's what allows it to work with extremely large data sets and still provide query responses in milliseconds.

There's no reason you wouldn't be able to do the same with a native implementation of course. But it would be naive to assume you'd end up using a lot less memory or CPU. Using that would be pretty core to matching performance and features. Not using that would make it pretty hard to get even close.
Is this a manifestation of synesthesia?

Serafini is quoted as saying: "Because it's a memory of, I don't know, ages ago. I was in Salzburg one summer just to follow two or three operas of Mozart. And I don't know why but one day I saw that I was making a different drawing with colors. It was connected with Mozart, but I didn't know that [yet]."

Compare to one of many random descriptions of synesthesia: “In addition to feeling the sounds of musical instruments on her body, Crane sees letters and numbers in brilliant hues. And for her, units of time each have their own shape: She sees the months of the year as the cars on a ferris wheel, with July at the top, December at the bottom.” https://www.apa.org/monitor/mar01/synesthesia

Is he drawing what he sees? Any synesthetes available to comment?
One nit to pick on your otherwise fine point:

Profit means playing ball with entities that can very seriously impact the enterprise. The money is great, but the cost to everyone is YT and friends doing some bidding they would otherwise want to avoid.

Essentially, it's similar to the military industrial complex. Private extension of government, and big business always does this. Has to, or the real threat might be accumulating soft power, the hearts and minds of the people,

Just saying it's not all money here. Power, and I mean established power, is a factor here as well. Corruption is legal here, and in many parts of the world. What we are seeing now is a part of that playing out.

If we were to have some real conversations, perhaps over beers, in a trust type scenario, I'll bet a whole lot of people in tech get this, have no answers, and would prefer it go much differently. We all know how this stuff can empower people, really improve the world.

That's not changed. But there are things in the way.
Yeah, well, it's not a big deal after all. I've just thought that the idea is not that these tips are secret knowledge after all. Just wanted to finish this year with something more or less decent, and in the next year I'll keep on researching this area
yes that was fun :)

Absolutely not. A virtualenv is typically a pointer to a systemwide python, or something managed by yet another piece of crap - chpy, asdf, whatever - they are not self contained. Upgrading the system python will typically break the virtualenv.
Your guess is as good as mine, but some kind of logical deadlock and no support person (managers included) is allowed to resolve it?
Mine is a business account which was migrated from a personal account from over 2 decades ago; I tried to close it for over a year.
Lies. Damned lies. And statistics.

Are you honestly shilling for a pharmaceutical company, unsolicited? Two years ago if someone told you that's what you'd be doing, how would you have felt?
Having replaced the HV transformer on a tek 465 I would suggest buying another one that already works and using your current one as a parts mule. It’s fairly difficult to get the thing out as you have to go as far as removing the entire CRT. Also probably costs less!
Next to our FAQ section (or beneath it if you're on mobile), there are links to a demo app for every platform so you can try out all the functionality currently available. We'll be adding new options every week, depending on the input we get.

Link for those out of the loop?

When, in many areas, 90% of ICU resources are devoted to unvaxed COVID cases, most of the problem is the unvaxed. Should we build entire hospitals solely for the unvaxed now?

When measuring negligence based on attempted mitigations taken to prevent harm or death of others, antivax would likely be considered extremely negligent, based on little to no efforts taken to reduce risk to others, or even intentional actions that purposefully increased risk.

Saying the virus kills and not the carrier/spreaders is like saying the car killed the person it hit, not the driver of the car. If you want to drive around your body with a deadly and extremely contagious disease, without mitigations, be careful who you crash into.

No one is forcibly injecting anyone, just society limiting access of those who do not care to limit their potential harm.
Can you show me any source code of a Cray being programmed in a high level language? What you describe sounds like a higher level ISA, but that has to be easily expressed in C++ for the argument to hold (or alternatively any high level language available at the time).

The thing with the Intel model is that although the programming model in the abstract is probably worse (although I'm curious if it allows a wider processor), it is trivial to use conceptually if you understand roughly which instructions you want i.e. it's just a blob as far as the compiler is concerned.

The compiler I work on supports Intel SIMD, I'm not sure it could be easily made to get the most out of a vector programming model without a lot of rewrites. It could, however, basically emulate the fixed width things in terms of a vector ISA if needs be.
This is a groundbreaking achievement by humankind. Even greater than sending people to the moon. Imagine, every time you ate pork, someone received a kidney transplant.
Electrical engineers are cheap. Porting to a slightly different layout can be easily crowdfunded.
I was thinking of this: https://scottaaronson.blog/?p=5807

Aaronson seems happier or at least more composed now, though. A few months have gone by since that post.
His "On Understanding Data Abstraction, Revisited (2009)" paper linked from the article was one of the biggest helps for me in making sense of OOP and the relation between OOP and functional programming, early in my programming journey.
I did say with the caveat of chemical treatment.
There are lots of boards being designed, some of which have been open, but they tend to be expensive because of the small runs.

The open cores tends to end up ported to multiple platforms over time.
In this context I was recently pointed to the story of Marek's disease [0], which went from a "quite low death rate" to "100% lethal" in a few decades. I think it's worth to know about this and have a long, hard think about the potential consequences of universal, non-sterilising vaccination. We might be locking ourselves into a situation with no escape.

That is a horrible website. I suspect that a lot of people will take one look at the front page, see that there is no obvious way to find out if a brand they are interested in is there and just drop it.

> For more information view our slide deck.
And no, I'm not going to view their slide deck. Just make a table of brand names and companies.

A great idea spoiled by a web design that seems to have forgotten that the purpose of such a site is communication.
It still makes me uncomfortable. I don't like the idea of having so many programmers' personal info in one place.
>But interestingly we still also have a blasphemy law, even though it is very soft now, from what it used to be.

At this point, the only way this will ever be enforced is when someone blasphemes the Quran.
Is there an english edition? Or maybe an audiobook on Audible.
That still needs a dev board mounted on it.
Does anyone know of something like this, but for Android?
I've been expecting a huge crash in crypto. It doesn't seem to happen. I'll never invest as I see no reason for the high value and no reason for the value to increase. Other than it being something close to a Ponzi scheme that people love to invest in as they assume there is some underlying value.
Are you fucking 8 years old. Why do you think you have a right to never be disagreed with?

But as for much crime the payoff might not be as high as the damage.
Not driving drunk is also not saving everyone from injuries and accident on the road, it just reduces it.

And while vaccinated people can still carry the virus, they are much less likely to carry it than non vaccinated people. You can't deny that.

Where I live, many places now mandate to show both a vaccination certificate, and a negative test result.
Sure, but at a customer I trash that immediately. I don't double check that it's my card. I imagine that 1/100 times might be enough to catch the fraud, but even getting thata y consumers to care would be an uphill battle without incentive.
I wonder if I could use it with a rsync endpoint? It's not listed in the backends.
I can only speak about where I am (UK) but the health care crisis is a complex topic, but there's no mystery at all to why it came about: decades of under-investment are 100% predictable given the party that has been power for a while now. It's what they always do. People should not be surprised that their votes have this obvious consequence.

But there's no easy fix to help us now, because it takes a long time to train doctors, nurses and other staff, or actually build hospitals. Yes, the crisis is entirely predictable but also entirely real. It is possible, even likely for a "liminal" crisis to persist at that level, as the safety valve that keeps it there is that patients without sufficient care just die off. These are the "excess deaths". Yes, I am appalled.

This is BTW one way how "Being unvaccinated could harm the vaccinated": If I (very much vaccinated) need urgent treatment for any reason, and can't get it because all the beds are full of unvaccinated COVID patients, then I am harmed thereby.

If your main concern right now is the "freedom" implications and the "we've been lied to narrative" not the actual deadly pandemic then you have been misdirected, and should reconsider your media diet away from conspiracy-mongers.

Yes, we need to take the good of others into account. Like it or not we live in a society and our actions impact others. This pandemic is making it clear to those who can see, that stubborn selfish refusal, and paranoid anti-mask and anti-vax "freedom" rhetoric harms not just yourself, but also those around you. Rugged individualism is a complete bust in this context. Collective action is what works.
Having being exposed to personal computers only in my early teens, most of my time was spent on reading (books for the most part). I feel that, at least for me, reading skills translate well to code. Even writing code didn't feel foreign to me since I had done some private writing on my own. And indeed, this article indicates the same:

https://journals.ufs.ac.za/index.php/pie/article/view/4027

So perhaps general reading/ literacy are a good adjunct skill for coding?
The average worker is not getting more productive, because they are being homogenized to great corporate benefit.

Workers are homogenized when software and hardware automation replace some of their skills, even though the job still exists.

1. Reduced utilization of worker skills, reduces worker's on the job value.

2. Reduced utilization of worker skills, reduces worker replacement costs.

3. Reduced need for training, also reduces worker replacement costs.

4. Reduced need for training, decreases on-the-job value gains for workers.

5. Homogenized jobs are easier to offshore to areas with lower wage expectations.

6. Homogenized workers allow for greater manager-to-worker ratios, either reducing the number of management jobs or increasing the number of homogenized jobs.

More of these jobs are being created very quickly since:

1. They save companies in wages.

2. They save companies in time.

3. They save companies in management complexity.

4. They save on resources for dignity and comfort.

5. They allow for faster scaling.

6. Entering new markets that require many workers is easier and more profitable where job homogenization is possible.

Think of automation from the employer's view:

1. Automation by software.

2. Automation by hardware.

3. Automation by worker homogenization.

Workers (for many types of low-level high-count jobs) and capital goods are "better" when they are standardized in quantity.

The point isn't to make them more productive, but to save money, which may go to profits, but it might also just go to reducing product and service prices since homogenization is not a difficult differentiator to copy.

So no "net gain" in GDP dollar terms, just reduced prices in line with reduced wages. But with dollars shifting away from companies not doing this yet, to companies that are.
It’s already both of those, and also mellifluous dim sum.

Hopefully terasic will keep making them for a good while and when they do retire them have a replacement.

It's not as simple as just develop a new board as the DE10 Nano offers a great price / performance ratio. There are more capable FPGA boards out there but they're also more expensive. Any purpose developed board would also likely cost more.
>This is just a shadowban / temporary suspension from commenting, and there is no evidence it's in any way related to "criticizing dislike removal".

There's no evidence that it's "a shadowban / temporary suspension from commenting" either. It's not in my case, nor I doubt for all the other users I've seen complaining about it. It's a bug on Youtube's end, plain and simple.
Huhm, the one that came to mind for me is <blue>House</blue> of Leaves, though I guess it's only 21 years old. It's (almost) fully legible English, but the pages are all sorts of messed up: Text goes forward, backward, sideways, meanders outside standard directions (including through the page), the footnotes span multiple pages and have their own multiple-page footnotes (all telling multiple storylines in parallel) (also one of the footnotes is editing the book as you read it), there's one section written in a simplistic code...

There's some pictures of the pages of this book in these reviews:

Why would it not be a victory? Who likes working for someone else when you don’t have to. I can think of an infinite number of things to do with free time if I didn’t have to work for money.
I dunno, maybe I've been around the business too long and been jaded. Aside from the opening, this is how I'd prefer to be let go.

I notice CEOs like to talk about themselves as if anyone cares, in this case about his crying and having to do it twice. That part can go.

But otherwise, just be forward and direct, which I think he was. And I'm not sure the whiny 'oh fuck you dude' is warranted. The market is blazing right now, and you have 3 months of benefits. Anyone who sees this as a problem probably quite frankly was on the chopping block already.
Your example above is maybe a good example why we do want range deletes, among other operations. In my view the problem is matching the semantics of the CRDT library to the semantics of the problem domain. Having more options always makes this easier (but not for the maker of the CRDT library :-p). I would even think that maybe we need CRDTs with programmable semantics along side inserts, deletes, move, range delete, etc (just an idea).

I would love to work on a structural editor for a programming language. Maybe I will start some experiments after my current project. Keep up the good work!

Ardour is pretty good. I use it for audio production on Linux and it has quite a few powerful features that many commercial DAWs don't. With Ardour 6 it introduced end to end latency compensation, which is a must have for complex projects, and the current development trunk includes a complete revamp of tempo handling that fixes longstanding issues with rounding error on MIDI region edges and such. I'm very much looking forward to the next release from that branch; it'll have solved all gripes I had with Ardour until now. They keep adding handy features, like the recent volume normalization feature that automatically ajusts your master gain to produce a master at the correct level for different streaming services.

Granted, it's not perfect - some people like some of the workflows, some don't - but I find it very good, especially if you spend some time customizing keyboard shortcuts and maybe adding a script or two (it's scriptable in Lua, and you can even write audio plug-ins in that)

It supports LV2 and VST2/3 plug-ins natively, and with Yabridge you can bridge Windows VST2/3 plug-ins very seamlessly.

(Full disclosure: I have a few bugfix patches in Ardour; I'm fairly committed to it for my needs and happy to help debug crashes and such, though these days they're very rare; the developers are very responsive on IRC though!)
I have a slightly different view of this. Here are the key reason why Indian's are succeeding:

1. Speaking the facts does not exist in India. Everyone sugarcoats. The successful see-through sugar coating. They are able to see through the true intentions of their peers, allowing them to be better leaders.

2. Indian's do Jugaad from birth. It is a need, as many don't even have stable electricity to light up a study lamp. They find creative ways to live their lives. This Jugaad at an early age gives them the "Power of Unlimited Thinking". A critical component in being a visionary leader. Finding solutions where no one thought it was possible.

Especially the alerts thing. I think every company I've ever worked for made the mistake of ignoring alert spam. If an alert doesn't require human action, then it should be a log or a metric. And by all means plot it on a graph (the metric that triggered the alarm, or in the case of a boolean test result, the frequency of the failure). Look at the graph during real incidents if you want. Talk about it at the monthly meeting. But don't generate an alert that people should ignore. You're playing Russian Roulette.
I don't think they love politics per se, but they love to hate the opposing tribe.

Even four days a week is too much to be honest though I don’t know if our current societal paradigm could handle anything less than that. With how productive and involved work is now, working white collar jobs are hard. It isn’t like 30-40 years ago when everyone worked at a relaxed pace at relatively low mentally intensive tasks.
Imo, people get endorphine hit from hitting dislike and feeling like they publically revenged. You are taking that away.

There are of course also arguments there and back. But the emotional reactions are either about interests or feelings. More likely to be feelings here.
