Professional classical baritone here. I've had the pleasure of singing Schubert's songs for...around 37 years now. (Oh dear, I'm getting rather old.)

Other than Bach's cantatas, this is probably my favorite body of work for the classical singer. The other exemplars are Schumann, Brahms, Wolf, and Mahler, but Schubert still reigns supreme in the realm of the Lied.

I've listened to probably nearly all of Schubert's output by now, and have sung, oh, perhaps half of them.

Overall, I find these rankings apt and mostly accurate. Really the best is left for last; Schubert's 3 monumental song cycles are all put in the "transcendent" category at the very end, but the songs in them (24 for Winterreise alone) are left unevaluated on an individual basis. This was probably wise.
Everyone knows that a blue screen means that the OS crashed. Maybe they should be more helpful instead? Like, you know, actually show a human-readable description of the error, so the person who sees it knows where to start troubleshooting. Something like "kernel-mode driver for device X performed an invalid memory operation, please try updating it or report this to its developer" instead of "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA".
Because when people feel like there is no hope to make it to the top, they become resentful and society starts to break down.
>It seems likely that Microsoft and Google will introduce ARM-based instances.

Actually google was the first. Its called TPU - Tensor Processing Units and has been available for their ML platform for a long time. Interestingly, TPU replaces nvidia in this case.

There are already largescale Kaggle benchmarks on CPU vs GPU vs TPU - https://towardsdatascience.com/when-to-use-cpus-vs-gpus-vs-t...
Bootstrap v2 had a LOT of unnecessary features while simultaneously lacking features because of Less limitations. By v5 it was significantly slimmed down if not for removing IE support and jQuery, but also a lot of rarely-used components.
Some topics that I would find of interest:

OpSec/Tradecraft for Developers

The metaphysics of CS/stats/DS/ML/etc. (I have a vague impression that the Bayesian vs. frequentist argument is just one tip of a multifaceted iceberg)

Protocol design and File format design

Game Theory as applied to de jure and de facto standards-making (incl. network effects, adversarial interoperability, etc.)

But surely the orders of magnitude thing factors in when you can have orders of magnitude more clients than servers? I think you'd need to run more specific numbers to lean either way on this.

You don’t need disqus, you just invalidate the cache and regenerate it for only the next request, serving stale copies until the regen is complete. nginx or varnish can both do that out of the box.
I only read hackernews and listen to what people tell me. I do listen to podcasts (Joe Rogan, Lex Fridman, Andrew Huberman, Tim Ferriss) and they do sometimes mention politics, but I try to avoid it.

Arguably, subtyping in am OO language should either be signatures/interfaces only, or you should go full blown multiple inheritance for everything, as with the Fortress language.
Also, if you go back a few hundred years there were relatively so few people on the Earth. I bought First Wife a posey ring from 1600s England. I was interested to know just how many people were around then. It was about 5% of the current population. The world was empty.
Make friends with a professional classical musician, and ask them! We're reasonably fun people. ;)
I'm more interested in comparative benchmarks. The last I heard MacOS (Intel) running docker was significantly slower than Linux and M1 was just as bad if not worse through Rosetta.

My experience in running the odd docker container on a Mac has been that it was painfully slow compared to any Linux machine.
Yeah it's a waste of time, and they should do it while you're doing the paperwork. But again, they're perpetually understaffed, so the same employee has to greet you, manage your place in line, do your paperwork, check your ID, ready the car, do the inspection, push the upsell to a higher-price model, do the insurance upsell, etc. etc.
The BBS code isn't public yet but it'll end up on https://github.com/ansiwave/ansiwave when it's ready. I've been posting devlog videos here... https://www.reddit.com/r/ANSIWAVE/

I think the best chance you'd have of getting the local aspect is to not run it on the public internet. Maybe use a local mesh network, packet radio, etc. But the community you end up with, if any, will be quite different than the one that formed around BBSes, i imagine.
Just get on Apple Music and listen to it all sung by Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. That's all you need.
Something seems wrong here. No doubt this configuration rocks, but it should be physically impossible to get better bandwidth than 8x 3.5GB/s = ~28GB/s that the raw drives offer, which is also well matched to the PCIe x4 slots bandwidth.

Maybe fio is producing trivially compressible data? Dedup? Directio not working?

What am I missing?
The examples you give compare new/good compression (lzma, HVEC) with old/bad compression (uncompressed, DivX). Yes the new/good compression uses more CPU per byte.

I see no reason to believe their website uses a compression scheme that uses more CPU per byte than PNG or JPEG. I don't think they're using anything advanced. Actually I just checked, and their website is using PNG.
These are both things where practice can help. For rhythm, as skybrian noted, try counting and clapping along. Then try writing down the rhythm of a melody or some other part of a piece of music. Have your teacher or someone with better rhythm evaluate your work. Keep doing that with more and more challenging pieces over time. BTW, just as an aside, most pop music vocal melodies are fairly syncopated and probably not the best choice for starting. Classical music _of the classical period_ is probably a lot easier (but things get more complex as you move towards the romantic and modern periods).

For ear training, you need to practice interval recognition, chord recognition, transcribing melodies, transcribing chord progressions, etc. And _also_ you should be doing a lot of singing, especially sight singing. Again, you'll need someone more expert than you to tell you if you're getting it right in some cases. But if you're transcribing a piece that has sheet music you can get instant feedback. And the same goes for sight singing. Sing it, then play it on the piano and see if it sounds right. Better yet, _record_ yourself singing it and play along on the piano. If the all the notes are the same, you win.

The other thing you should be doing is actually playing music! Doing lots of exercises is great, but the whole point of this is to make you a better musician, not just someone who's really good at notating rhythms of the music they hear.

(Source: I have a master degree in music composition and I taught ear training and theory during grad school. Plus I also struggled quite a bit with ear training (but not rhythm) myself.)
But even if most people don't know how to consume it, it's a lot easier for a tech support rep to just ask for the numbers, rather than see if booting into safe mode or whatever will work well enough for them to walk the customer through manually adding registry entries (which just seems like a bad idea anyway), so they can get the extra debugging info.

Just leave it visible all the time, Microsoft! It won't hurt, and can certainly help!

As they mention these are custom examples where you make lookup on user supplied string. But do you have an example of that? It seems highly unlikely to do jndi lookups based on user input.

Webpack is a front-end build toolchain, not a minifier. Usually Terser is used inside of Webpage to minify.
I initially was freaking out when it was really Keanu but when it switched to its CG character, I just knew it wasn’t him. Then during the action scene, the explosions were still like the quality I have seen in GTA V about 8 years ago. The cars looked fine but the way they rolled after exploding did not convince me personally.
Perhaps that is why this promo is a great one for the Matrix franchise as the world of the Matrix looks very real but isn’t. The original movie Matrix has aged like fine wine and is still a perfect metaphor for today’s world. Especially with how video games have become increasingly realistic due to technologies like RTX and VR/AR apps and games,but they still don’t fool anyone that they are real.

> But people who think that their own modern lifestyle is comparable to a medieval king are lying to themselves.

Medieval kings still ate poor food, you can see it on their teeth, they often had gravel etc in the bread wearing down the teeths etc. The houses, food and clothing, sanitation etc the kings had back then would be illegal to even offer to poor people toady.

Talking about money just makes you a target for every charity, scam, people wanting loans, people wanting you to invest in their startup, groupies, and on and on.

I bet it would be really, really hard to become an actual friend of Bill Gates, for an extreme example. I once was at a conference, where he was a speaker, and sat at the lunch table he sat at, along with 7 other people. It was sickening how they fawned all over him. He pretended not to notice, but can you imagine going through life with that happening all the time?

Re: TLoU2, maybe it's easier to create a completely original character and make them convincing, than to match a very well-known actor?
I am not sure, I think some of it is cached in the RAM. I did a longer sustained test and I am getting about 70 GB/s with a 200GB file - this is definitely larger than 64GB RAM. Is it to do with lz4 compression? Fetching smaller blocks from disk and then decompressing it, thus inflating the bandwidth?

The initial file was created with fio rw=randwrite, so the dummy data is random.

I think its even more impressive that ZFS can do this. I verified with ext4 fs on a single NVMe drive and no matter what knobs I turn, I am getting around around 3.5 GB/s.

Edit: See note 2 at the end of the article, I posted the raw results of another 100GB file test.

Edit 2: See note 3. I rebooted the VM with 2GB ram (instead of 64GB) and it matches almost exactly as per your prediction ~ 20GB/s. But, it still doesn't explain the absurd 80GB/s sustained reads of a 100GB file with only 64GB ram.
I browse Quora and Reddit where I have curated my feed over time by following/unfollowing specific topics and people based on my interests
This ad reminds me of the way it felt to work at Sun Microsystems around 2002, when all the engineers knew that cheap GNU Linux boxes were the future. The marketing people had similar FUD-based ads about how the TCO of Linux was higher, how certain HPC jobs wouldn’t run well etc. super similar to this Intel ad today.

Eventually, if the wealth divide becomes too great and ossified, the logical thing for the poor to do is have a violent revolution (since there is no other way to advance their station in life).

This sucks for basically everyone, rich or poor. I think we all have a selfish interest in making sure it doesn't come to that.
What you do with the savings makes all the difference. For example, you could invest it to upgrade your job skills, making for a much higher income level. Investing it at the current negative 4% or so is not much better than setting it on fire.

If your point is "I can write some code to output HTML with the appropriate styling" then... yes, but at that point why use HTML as the input format? (Because you can edit it in an HTML editor? Yes, but you undermine that if your styling isn't working at that point, in the same way as the Apache SSI problem described in the article). I think the article is talking about the kind of HTML that gets rendered by a web browser rather than the kind that's used as an internal representation in some other system.

Yeah, I can't tell if being the kind of person to whom this feels like bullshit is a character flaw, but it bears no resemblance to the way I learned programming or the way anyone I work with programs. Everything I know is an explicit best practice I learned somewhere and wrote down, and everything people do by instinct is stuff like creating global variables everywhere. To be fair I'm only five years in professionally.
It's still different. Humans can't be turned back on easily, and they can't be replaced once lost.

For all of its problems, the core concept of a meritocracy is that you don't get positions in life simply based on ancestry.

If the children of an astronomer really do turn out to be the best astronomers, then a meritocracy should theoretically allow them to become the best astronomers in the next generation.

But they do not get to be the astronomers JUST because they had a parent who was good at that. Every generation gets a reset; if genetics really do predict merit, then sure, the arrangement will look a bit like ancestry.
I like to follow link chains on Wikipedia.
Fascinating; so that makes me wonder if the bluescreen code flow also tries to look up the registry value, or if the boot process somehow reads that registry value so early in the boot that by the time a bluescreen happens, the value is already available to it ... in a specific memory location or something?

It's my idea of hell having an error handler that tries to do fancy stuff and then the error handler dies and swallows the original error condition

Also, if you happen to still have the link to that regkey description, I bet this audience would benefit from your research
Take a look at Duplicacy as an alternative then. Similar core idea (takes a folder, chunks it up, tracks revisions, etc) but is faster than Duplicati and Restic. Has some other nice features like deduplication, multi client, etc.

Kopia is another up and coming option too.

Pretty much. Last time I rented from Hertz, with a corporate card, they wanted to run an "identity verification" on me, which I assume was basically some kind of credit pull. They then told me that because the details from that didn't match the card (billing address, ZIP, etc., I guess), they could not rent to me.

"When can I see a refund on my card?" I asked, as I pulled up Uber to go somewhere else (because I was not about to use my personal card, on principle with their behavior).

"Sorry, prepaid reservations are nonrefundable".

Uhh, no. You're not going to accept a reservation from me using a credit card, and then decide that my photo ID matching that credit card is insufficient, deny me a rental, and deny me a refund.

That got sorted out, but took more than one call to Corporate.

Why would data, which can be replicated, isn't limited to one body, and doesn't care if it lives or dies, be anything like a human on the inside?
I tried the easier to set plastic ones. They're easier to set because the spring is much weaker. The mice have lighting reflexes, and would pull away before the trap could close. Either that, or the spring wasn't strong enough to crush them, and they'd pull out and run away.

Whenever I'd check them, they had tripped, the bait was licked off clean, and there wasn't a mouse hair left.

I don't recall ever having the metal ones trip and not catch the mouse. Once all it caught was some long grey hairs, and I tot quap, dat's a wat. Got da bigger an' badder wat twap version, an' caught da wascally wat.

The key word here is change v/s progress.

The classic example of this is commuting via car v/s bicycle. The staggering amount of resources dedicated to solving this problem can be termed as progress with better infrastructure, cars (self-driving even) - contrast it against the change that those who can change to commute via bicycle.

We can only know progress in hindsight and only at things that can be quantified. It is self-serving in that sense, when you exclude the non-measurable.

Yes, less dealing with LODs using nanite, less worry about drawcall count, less budgeting tri count. And Epic provides huge photogrammetry scan libraries that work well with it.

American hacker news commenters clearly in full denial is as funny as it is sad.
This is spot on; I wish I could upvote it twice.

That said, I believe it is possible (and useful) to slowly extract parts of tacit knowledge into decision framework. Kind of "best practice" lists in respective fields. This will help new comers avoid past mistakes and use that time/cognitive capacity to push the boundary of knowledge/skill to uncharted territory. Otherwise we will be stuck in a status-quo.

Take chess. There are advises like don't play such-and-such a move in this position. If you follow the rabbit hole you'll see that hundreds of chess masters had played those lines to weaken their position. And later scores had analysed those games to codify it into "don't play foo in baaz middle game". Of course GMs sometimes go against those advises because they are GMs.

It's almost impossible to advance a field if we all relied on tacit knowledge alone. Because it doesn't scale and we'll spend all our cognitive capacity in repeatedly committing same mistakes.

As an expert in my field I repeatedly force myself to question the source of my judgement when someone asks me "why" when I say "this API doesn't look right". When I do so I indeed realise that it violates some foundational principle and explain it. An expert who can't describe the source of their wisdom, once in a while, end up getting stuck IMO. Because they are not exercising that deductive part of their brain and come to rely more and more on their "wisdom". Over time they fail to adopt to changing conditions and become dogmatic and less relevant.
