> JIT warmup

No kidding, this can be seriously misleading.

IMO JS (and likely many other JIT VM) benchmarks should run:

- multiple cold starts

- multiple pre-warmed starts (essentially run your bench twice, discard the results, run it again)

- isolated cases

- shared runtime cases with evenly distributed ordering

All of those will reveal different performance characteristics you may want to know about, and people evaluating your results should be able to know about. Cold starts are a worst case scenario of each implementation, warmed should show a more ideal outcome. Isolated will again highlight the perf of each implementation on its own merits, whereas shared runtime should help highlight how interacting with other real-world code affects VM optimization of that implementation.

Having helped a person through a severe depressive episode that lasted many months, I have to say there is a lot more to it than this article suggests. Sometimes I had to talk and not listen, because I needed my partner to eat for the first time that day, or needed to coerce them to keep their doctor or therapy appointments because if they didn't, they would rapidly end up disconnected from any professional care.

I found that their disposition came in waves and would be worse for a few days and better for a few days, and during those better days we could work together on damage control from all the bedridden days, and discuss different treatment options to pursue. But even during the worst days, I still needed to get them to eat, or stop them from wandering off in the middle of the night, or get them to call back their panicked family member. It was hard work.

I’d call this an irrational optimization in modern times for this particular problem space. I have no idea how long this scheme has been in use, but they’re basically ids for malware data releases, so even if you accumulated all the timestamps that have ever been used as these ids, it’s probably a few thousand, max, and growing at a predictable and pretty linear rate. Using clever encodings to save space or sort time in the context of an exchange server for this amount of data probably hasn’t been an appropriate choice in at least a couple decades.
No one can find anything where Consumer Reports has rated moving services. It's likely the grandparent confused them with BBB, which is totally pay-to-play.

And--- I appreciate Consumer Reports' accuracy, but I doubt that they are 100% accurate. There are probably recommendation sets that end up as garbage for one reason or another (incorrect weighting for my use case, statistical noise, evolution in products since survey experiences, etc).

There's also times where I have personal expertise or preferences that outweigh CR's rankings. CR rates computers, after all, and I would probably not weigh them very heavily in my choice.

I understand that you could say the ebike part is a hard requirement but, well, I don't think someone who knows so little about mountain biking or biking at all is in a position to make that kind of hard requirement in an informed way.

I know a startup that hired a Marxist-collective group of programmers. I was told this story years ago, and they were acquired, so I’ll just name the firm - “White Ops”. This story is so absurd that I’m naming the firm in hopes someone can verify the accuracy of this, although I trust the person that told me the tale.

The programmers were based in Canada and only wrote in Haskell. The CTO of White Ops had apparently hired them previously as contractors at a prior company without issue.

In hindsight, it turned out the purpose of Haskell was specifically because it was very difficult to hire anyone to replace them, and they wrote in a strange manner that left even experienced Haskell developers confused, especially without their customized IDE extensions.

After a couple rounds of funding, the Marxists went on strike and demanded huge amounts of equity from White Ops to continue working. Ultimately the company wound up rewriting everything in a more popular language than acquiesce to their demands. I heard the Marxist group also had tons of drama because the leader made everyone live onsite in shared housing.

The random hypothesis was made by OP, who inferred that the 45% increase in deaths is due to Covid-19.

I would guess a lot of that 45% is due to Covid, but how much would be a guess, and I suspect OP is just guessing too.

Overdoses are historically one of the leading causes of death among people in this age range, and we’re also setting records for overdose deaths this year [0], but that gets no almost coverage compared to Covid. I think it’s reasonable to keep in mind that overdoses could also be contributing to that 45% uptick, unless we have evidence to the contrary.

I keep reading versions of this assertion and have yet to read anyone publish a clear list of these "lots" of problems. I am trying to understand. So far, I don't.

In other words, so far I still think crypto is a solution looking for a problem.

Even worse, to me it feels like early entrants and those with millions to throw at crypto made out like bandits and everyone else is in the grips of a Ponzi scheme that will end badly at some point. I could be wrong, of course, I just know too many people who jumped in and got hurt.

Do you mean to say that they receive money to issue reviews (which would be alarming)? Or do you mean to say they charge fees to access review information (which has always been the case AFAICT)?

After practicing bunch of Leetcode questions (around 300), and looking at videos from hiring managers that claimed to work at FAANG, or even the example interview at FAANG itself. I am actually more confused, whether Leetcode is the thing that they are looking for or not. Here is what I observed:

- Some Leetcode questions require tricks/complex algorithm that you absolutely won't find in the span of 45 mins. If you do, either you are ultra genius, that able to find and modify a variation of Kadane's algorithm in 45 mins (even though it is a simple one), or you just have seen the question before and you just somewhat memorized it. Obviously the answer is the latter. In this case, what do actually FAANG companies really looking for? Is it the proof that a candidate has been finishing hundreds of questions?

- I've seen videos on interview example on Youtube, and they all present medium to easy Leetcode questions. The onsite interview at FAANG is mostly hard questions. So that means there are disconnect from how FAANG actually interviews and how these interview samples are conducted. And again, solving a hard question that you've never seen before optimally require way more than 45 mins, unless you've seen the question before, which goes back to no. 1

- Hiring managers or recruiters that gave advice. Saying stuff like "talk a lot, talk to the interviewer, interview is a 2 way street" and other feel-good self-help stuff that has nothing to do with the actual interview and don't help at all. Claimed that what the companies are looking are your thought process. Nope, lies. What companies are looking is whether you can solve this problem optimally in 45 mins. If you have thought process, speaking during the interview, etc, and you couldn't even finish the question in brute force, then you fail. If you able to finish the question with brute force, but not optimal, you also fail.

- Experienced senior engineers that definitely rusty on Leetcode and just did basic DS&A brushup and definitely couldn't pass Leetcode hard, got offered with TC way higher than these fresh grads.

So, I'm quite confused on what are the companies really looking for? I think I concluded that FAANG companies are indeed practicing what they say "eliminating false positives and have a really high false negatives". Therefore the whole interview Leetcode fiasco is just a number's game.

A few things:

- If you are senior engineers and have track record at other companies, then you don't need Leetcode to prove your worth. Since statistically, you are already worthy and can perform in your job.

- If you are not a senior engineer from other FAANG companies, then you just have to play the number's game. I.e, keep interviewing (and Leetcoding) until somehow the combination of your studies and the mood of the interviewer and the questions that come up during that interview day rolls in your favor.
Quoting the original post I was replying to: "we import electricity from germany that is burning coal for it"

Reality: We're a top exporter of electricity (I'll give you that we're not THE top exporter all the time), and Germany's exports are thanks to its "huge renewable sector" (quoting you).

There are no goalposts to move. This is just a bunch of nonsense. People who want to complain can use whatever stats and values they want to make their point, I guess. retinaros' other posts tells me I should just have flagged and moved on from the beginning, but that leaves the risk of misinformation spreading anyway...

I am guilty of this, and I recognized it happening this Christmas break so I tuned in to one project more passionately, by trying to do it well I gave myself more to think about and so it was a bit more encompassing.

But I think another part of the solution was a certain level of mediation. Aspiring to a project is a kind of indulgence in itself, and deciding to relax my aspirations a bit gave me room enough to actually complete one of those projects.
Zotero is a great tool for references. I am using it for 10+ years mostly for research papers in LaTeX+bib but also for things like "Read It Later" and notes. I find it more straightforward to use than EndNote or Mendeley and Zotero works perfectly fine with my library of about 7K entries. Also it has a useful feature that lets you save your PDFs on a WebDAV server of your choice like pcloud.com or self-hosted.
Some of the web3 concepts I've seen are indeed not using DNS in the practical sense you are implying. Why use CA's when you can run your own name service? There are plenty of other methods too.

Not exactly sure why you think TCP, the protocol, is relevant here? Creating or interacting with a web contract in a blockchain is a different ballgame to hosting a web site, and are treated as such by ISPs. One is indistuishable with normal web browsing, and the other is often treated as a business. The threat of having your ISP cut you off because they don't like what you are browsing remains a threat though, and hence a weakness by requiring their permission.
No, you seem particularly focused on a technical detail concerning the flow of money rather than the larger theme at play; that is, the value of money is at the whims of the central bank. I'm imagining those who lived to see the Zimbabwe dollar devalue from dollars to trillions of dollars would have a hard time believing you when you say central banks can't create money.

Furthermore, there are some that believe an interest rate should be determined by markets rather than policy makers.

And on the personal note, I have a minor in economics, my bachelors was finance. Economics is a broad subject, and even if you study monetary policy at the undergraduate level, the mechanics of central bank asset flow is not a subject well covered. But hey, thanks for the elitism and insulting the 99.99999% beneath you.

Biggest complaints:

1) work were you perform difficult maintenance tasks, think debugging userland code from complete system dumps

2) challenging infrastructure

3) monopolization of power by established employees

Manufacturers have 100% control over their website.

They can delete reviews, they can keep the reviews and start shipping a slightly different product instead, they can ask certain customers to write positive reviews for incentives. The list goes on and on.

It's asymmetric warfare and manufacturers hold all the cards. That's why there generally are consumer protection laws, and not the other way around, e.g. protecting manufacturers from consumers (lol).

The semi-good news is that for most consumer goods like microwaves, it doesn't really matter, because they are all "good enough".
Maybe I skimmed too fast, but neither link seems to mention a logistical build-up.

You can park tanks on your side of the border and talk big without a major logistical build-up. Or "just barely" cross the border in force. Or run a token few units deep into Ukraine (+/- local opposition). But to actually move large, modern military forces deep into Ukraine (the country is over 500,000 sq. km), a huge logistical build-up would be necessary.

Invasion is not a video game, where tanks & troop transports have unlimited fuel, never need spare parts, and there are big piles of ammunition (of the exact right sizes & types for Russian weapons) scattered every few km through the Ukrainian countryside.

> Well, again, in principle, NFTs can be used to represent ownership of anything.

Possession of a token itself doesn't create legal ownership of a separate asset unless there is a legally-binding instrument that conveys ownership of that asset through possession of the token. To turn tokens into legally-binding instruments of ownership, you're back into the real world of laws, lawyers, financial regulations, etc.

> However, theoretically, you could tokenize other assets, like real estate, or intellectual property, and then trade them in a more liquid, global manner than is currently possible.

This simply isn't true though. Tons of real estate assets are securitized and traded in liquid, global markets. Even average investors can access these markets through REITs.

More esoteric assets, such as music royalty rights, have exchanges like Royalty Exchange[1].

You could of course use the blockchain for these types of things, but just using tokens doesn't absolve you from having to comply with securities regulations. Unfortunately, from what I see, a lot of the people trying to create crypto-based solutions seem to believe that the use of tokens is a "get out of regulation jail free" card.

> If you want an example of tokenized value, just look at stablecoins. Stablecoins are literally tokenized dollars. They allow you to self-custody large amounts of, what is effectively digital cash. That is something you couldn't do before. If you didn't trust banks, you either had to store physical dollars in your home, which is extremely dangerous for a number of reasons, or you had to suck it up and trust them anyway.

Stablecoins claim to allow self-custody of large amounts of basically digital cash. But there are a lot of red flags with stablecoins and I'd humbly suggest that anyone who doesn't trust banks but is willing to trust stablecoins is missing the plot.

Either way, your cash, in whatever form it takes, is at greatest risk because of central bank policy, not how and where your cash is stored. If the USD loses its reserve status, you're going to feel the effects whether you're holding physical dollars or Tether.

Yeah, derive macros in rust are very similar to lombok and other annotation processing code generators in Java. Any of the trait function implementations could be written manually, but it saves work and makes it more robust to use the derive macro (or Lombok).
