I use Neovim 0.6.0 with its built LSP with some plugins including simrat39/rust-tools.nvim. It uses rust-analyzer. It works extremely well but I don't use the debugger at all. I've used IntelliJ with a Rust plugin, to and it has debugger support of sorts, but the overall experience was sluggish and I never went back.
I noticed that as well. It is scary.

There is this big push in academia to work in AI because funding. Many mathematicians are a bit fed up with AI because the paper of the fields tend to be a bit liberal with claims and they are not subject to the same standard as fields such as statistics or numerical analysis.

Many mathematical researchers I have known have abstained from jumping in the AI bandwagon until they see the name of a well-known professor in an AI paper. Then they cave.
> IMO the most practical check they actually do is the presence of a functioning gas cap.

Even that throws a code these days. 14y.o. BMW has a pump that pressurizes the fuel system to check for leaks and it’s usually the pump that breaks and throws a code.

17y.o. Corolla threw a fuel system code but it was the gas cap.

Only thing is that this pressurization check system only runs when the weather is warm enough, so resetting a code usually lets you pass e-testing as “Not Ready” because months can go by. Maybe there’s differences in summer/winter e-testing criteria.
It's not worse, it is compartmentalization to split different components of the ML system (parse question | find appropriate solution to question).

Now the challenge is to mimic the human creating the "right" question with high fidelity so the whole ML system returns appropriate search results.

"The cause of bubbles is disputed by economists; some economists even disagree that bubbles occur at all (on the basis that asset prices frequently deviate from their intrinsic value). However, bubbles are usually only identified and studied in retrospect, after a massive drop in prices occurs."

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bubble.asp
Interest rates are very low. This makes asset prices high. This is not quite the same thing as a bubble, though i'm sure when the Fed inevitably raises rates and prices crash, people will declare it to have been a bubble. That doesn't mean that specific sectors aren't in some sort of bubble (e.g. crypto). But high asset prices across the board can be explained most simply by the incredibly low interest rate environment, which values future cash flows nearly equally with present cash flows. Inflation pushes nominal asset prices up even further, too.

If you think inflation is going to continue due to supply chain pressure in China, and/or labor pressure in the US, then the Fed is going to have to raise rates. When they do that, one of two things will happen: Either they'll be sufficiently large to curb inflation, which means that asset prices will probably decline fairly significantly, or they won't, in which case inflation will continue, and asset prices will stay elevated, though perhaps not keeping up with inflation.

It's also possible that China will be less disrupted by Omicron than some people think, and that US businesses will re-allocate labor more efficiently and more quickly than some people expect (via some mix of increased automation and rationalization), and the supply side issues will resolve themselves. If that's the case, the Fed may be able to leave rates alone for now. And in that scenario, there's no major reason for a significant decline in asset prices, though that doesn't mean one can't happen for other reasons.

Ultimately, inflation is the ratio between money and stuff (including services). Asset prices are the risk adjusted present value of future cash flows. Both of these things are influenced simultaneously by interest rates, and the underlying real economy.

Another thing to note is that, to some extent, what we're seeing in the public stock market is the effect of increasing returns to scale. People mistakenly equate the public markets with the broader economy, and while that intuition isn't completely wrong, it's not completely right, either. The stock market is heavily biased towards large scale businesses, and nearly uniformly excludes small businesses. This isn't some nefarious plot, just the mathematics of the cost of listing and the utility of exogenous capital. But the bias that encodes is that at a time when small businesses are rapidly failing and large businesses are absorbing their market share, the stock market may be performing quite well, despite the underlying economy experiencing troubles. This isn't irrational in an economic sense, it's just that the stock market doesn't perfectly track the underlying economy for this, and other reasons.

That's cool - as are mipmaps, but even with those you'll still have patterns emerge that don't exist on the original texture. Humans are really good noticing patterns, so they're distracting (a tiled floor doesn't doesn't look like it has u-shaped curves in reality). Those patterns not having sharp/grainy edges anymore already helps a lot though.

Maybe what I'm asking for is impossible, because fighting those patterns any further would just go too far into blurry territory. It might just be an inherent property of projecting something on a grid of neatly ordered pixels, which is very unlike the receptors in our eyes.

Though to be honest, I didn't even consider that it may just be missing mipmaps making it look like that. My perspective is much that of a consumer who spend a lot of time trying out various settings/technologies and ordered them into "looks bad" and "looks better".
Where the improvement is no longer rapid, I’d prefer the longevity and repair model for things like phones, electronics, and cars.

It keeps a pool of skill locally and of course done correctly it reduces unnecessary garbage.

People have been asking this exact question since at least 2014. Some day, there will be a crash, but no one can really predict it. There will be a lot of people how have been "predicting" an imminent crash every year for the last 7+ years who will claim prescience when it finally happens.

The best advice you can get--keep investing at normal intervals in well diversified assets. You can't time the market and you can't predict the future. If there's a crash tomorrow, twenty years from now, it won't matter at all to you. The market will even itself out.
Are you saying that there's no value in demonstrating the skill to create something that many, perhaps most, programmers would say is impossible?

Have you looked at the code? It's beautifully laid out, extremely readable, and completely maintainable. If you don't know bash it's a great example of how to create a reasonably complex program that's designed to be read and maintained.

And finally, yes, when taken as an opportunity to improve your skills, absolutely there is value in creating something as a vehicle for developing your abilities, to demonstrate to others that you have those skills, and quite simply, as a challenge.
I think we are in a bubble, but I don't see the bubble bursting like in the past. It'll take unrest or worse, since the bubble is inflating via inequality and wealth transfer. Once people are really fed up, then the music stops.

In theory, the bubble bursting should herald some social and economical reforms.

The article makes a pretty clear point that the go interfaces it talks about aren't as simple as they seem.

The limitations of the language result in interfaces that are pretty easy to misuse due to unenforceable invariants, and not in theoretical ways either, which I think is the opposite of simple.
If you discount the recession due to the pandemic this is the longest we've gone without a major bust for 100 years... maybe the economy is fundamentally different now?

> I've taken to putting a link to the Confluence docs

Middle ground I've found on some projects: very detailed code/data-oriented notes are in markdown in the repo, tied to a PR. Those doc files may reference external items like confluence pages or specific tracking ticket/URLs that relate to the code at hand.

I was on a team that had everything in confluence, and everything was impossible to find. The closest I came to understanding it was the confluence docs were always initial plans, but were rarely updated. When updated, you wouldn't necessarily know if you needed to look through 5 versions to see earlier thinking, or which links to 'updates' confluence pages you needed to trawl through. It was as much a problem of a growing set of contributors and growing departments than anything else, but there was a new 'direction' every 6-9 months (when new folks would come in) and "this worked at my old company" so they'd document stuff however they wanted.

No one on the dev team bothered to ever look there for anything, because it was simply pointless. Few people ever looked at it for anything more than "recent updates" to see what's changed in the last 2-3 weeks. Discoverability on the size of that project (and this is 'only' 5 years old ~80 people) was just useless.

A handful of folks did keep 'onboarding' stuff relatively up to date, but it was less than a year old at that point. I suspect that if those folks moved on, those docs may slowly rot.

On the whole, keep written docs both updated and useful and findable to a growing number of people with disparate needs and different contexts and backgrounds... it's a lot harder than it might seem when first considering it. Even if you have the people on a team with the aptitude for it, it's usually low priority in every work cycle, and the first casualty when trying to hit deadlines.
> For a vocal contingent online, real-world threats involve lack of control over hosting, over their data, over encryption.

I'm in tech running my own software company and I don't even want to upkeep centrally maintained hardware like my PlayStation. It's just a pain (often enough) and for the non-tech people in my life it's just barely tolerable.

I believe that cryptocurrencies/web3 are in a bubble that's going to pop. So far the utility of these things is dominated by trading on speculative assets (read: ponzi shit) and that's gonna crash at some point with a lot of normal people holding the cards. Doesn't seem good.

Housing I don't know. At least in my area there's just no new constructions happening. Prices are absurd here because a lot of people have a lot of money and there isn't much supply going around.

I know nothing about the stock market and how it works, it's just a machine to bet on things, and lots of companies have had outsized benefits from the pandemic so I guess it makes sense? Who knows

Inflation? Who knows
I think SPF means a construction where there's no redundancy provided? Though it does raise the question of how this is counted: table with 4 legs, any of them breaks, table is still standing. Table with three legs, any of them breaks, table is broken.
Political issues are not impeding France, Finland, the UK, or even the US's two sites. This is a misconception.

The underlying Gen3 (or whatever the AP1000 and EPR would be called), is fundamentally incompatible with our construction and logistics capabilities. China probably can't help us fix our processes, and I'm not sure we would trust them. Same goes for Rosatom, who is also building.

Even under the best of economic conditions, however, nuclear is not very favorable. Even China, with its unparalleled construction capability, is only planning a tiny tiny slice of its future energy capacity as nuclear, with much larger generation in wind and solar. And a lot of the planned nuclear will never be built, because renewables and storage are changing the economic case for nuclear.

It’s not an ICE issue. Emissions controls drove reliability.

No such thing drives similar changes for other components. I drove a 2003 Honda Pilot 265k miles and get rid of it in 2019. It needed shocks, brakes and would have needed the exhaust system replaced soon due to rust. Just wasn’t worth the money.

I sold it to a guy I know for $2000, he drove it until last year, removed the engine and transmission, and sold it.
Any company at that size should be thought as a hostile entity - if anything bad happens you're just a drop in the ocean and the company couldn't care less about your issues. Everything should be done in such a way that there's an exit door if things go wrong (Of course that's unfortunately not always possible - eg if you're banned from any app store, that's it for you).
Ah, yeah, fair point. When I was building an app, I tried to make it as not addictive as possible, and yet the thought that would come to my mind was that if what I make is not that addictive, they may just use the other one. So this back and forth about not wanting people to be addicted to it but also wanting to be compelling enough to pull people from the other ones. I've thought about this with podcasting—I don't want people to listen to my podcasts all day, I'd prefer they also talk with people around them. That being said, people will listen to podcasts and would I prefer they listen to me over someone else, given no matter what I do, they may spend X hours per day listening?

The unibody construction isn’t unique at all in 2022. Virtually every car on the road (except for handful of pickup and some SUV/off-roader models) has been built this way for decades now, and isn’t what’s exciting about this new approach from Tesla.

What’s unique is that so much of the unibody is just 2 castings - previously the front and rear required joining 140 separate parts. Such a massive front and rear casting has never been attempted in car production, the mechanical press used to do so is a record size for a car company.

VW’s ceo Herbert deiss has stated this is a massive innovation from Tesla that ultimately will enormously reduce time to assemble a vehicle - we don’t need to just take elons word for it. Time to assemble is everything when it comes to car profits. Herbert points out a VW ID3 takes ~3 days to finish assembly, with this process Tesla should be able to complete a model Y in just 10 hours, putting large competitive pressure on VW too. VW’s margins on their electric stuff hasn’t been that great to begin with either.

This release primarily constitutes a massive rendering API rework. You can think of it more as a foundation that makes it easier to implement better rendering features in the future.

If you check the release notes, you'll see HDR/Bloom support was dropped at the last minute, and several other major rendering features are still pending implementation. [0]

The great part about Bevy is that it's modular, so you can swap out the renderer if you like. For example, there's already several people using Bevy with Embark's kajiya renderer.[1]

Partially-agreed on the former, but not the latter.

So long as the chain is not loaded near its tensile limit, then the grain boundaries that support the load within each link do so in parallel and are therefore redundant.

The selection of the allegory of the chain was intentional -- each link must be properly formed, or the entire chain will fail. If it breaks, it is surely correct to say, "the chain broke", but in truth, it was actually link-86.

For JWST, the remarkable/audacious thing is that many links in the chain from launch to observation are potential single-point failures. Furthermore, many of them haven't ever been tested independently in space... ever. It is a hell of a triumph that JWST has gotten this far already.

If even a small fraction of the instrumentation works at this point, we are going to learn a ton about the universe, simply due to JWST's position, collecting-area, and mirror-diameter.
I’m not sure if we’re in a bubble, but the fed recklessly printing infinite money with no plan or capability to pay it back, not to mention the economy absolutely did not need the cash, should not be tolerated. These politicians are mortgaging your future to gain karma points with other politicians (“look how many jobs we created!”). Idk how people fall for this shit.
could it be just inflation. I heard that there was a lot of moneys being printed.
It's not as bad as at first feared. Views here are along the usual lines; for many when there's an issue either it's something that's fixable inhouse (init scripts) or needs a support contract.
