Also, it’s worth noting that OoO brings more than just ILP/scheduling, it also brings MLP and dynamism. Take for instance latency hiding a cache miss or a mispredicted branch. Stuff like this is impossible to know in advance, no matter how much you redesign your language to expose ILP.
Yes, consistently.

I know it will be used but want to ensure max ROI before we sink resources into building and maintaining it.
They're not very relevant nowadays, but PLX and others make bidirectional PCI-PCIe bridges that I think were mostly used so that companies could ship transitional products— eg, do a new board layout that accommodates the PCIe slot/power/whatever, but add the bridge IC to it so that you don't have respin your super fancy custom ASIC.
Just optimize the search for interesting!
I built something similar in the past using TesseractOCR and Apache Tika and PyPDF2 / QPDF. The idea is sound. An API based OCR already exists in Apple / Microsoft / and Google so I am not sure this would be that useful. There would be no way for the user to trust that you are not taking the data you are OCR'ing and using it. If you can apply some type of one way encryption of the content and prove it via open source code (like Whisper Systems does for Signal) which seems like overkill and lots of effort for a free app.
Well I agree that I should have been a bit more careful while writing the sentence.

At the same time, it's completely pointless to correct someone instead of focusing on the discussion when you totally understand what the other person said.
Hey, look, it's simple: just spend $5k on a new top-of-the-line M1 Max MacBook, then it'll be as fast as IRC was on a 133Mhz MMX Pentium 1.

Slack is great; it's like "hey, we took IRC and added inline images, now it's three orders of magnitude slower". Google Sheets is great in the same way: "hey, we took Excel and removed half the features plus now it's a few orders of magnitude slower BUT EASIER TO SHARE THINGS". Spotify is similar: "Like WinAmp, but slow, but with a subscription you can listen to most of what you want immediately and share things easily." These are in ascending order of their actual value compared to their predecessors, I guess.

Distributing the load of webapps makes sense if you've ever had to run a few thousand web servers running PHP apps, but yeah, running a framework server-side to render the page again and calling it modern is just kinda...the same thing we had before with a fresh coat of paint and more levels of abstraction.

Back in the day, we had CPAN, PEAR, and PECL. Now we have NPM and approximately 18 trillion modules. You can get stuff that does all kinds of useful types of manipulation, but under the hood some of it is still just a wrapper around some combination of zlib, FFmpeg, OpenSSL, and maybe Boost, plus TensorFlow or OpenCV (which can use FFmpeg) these days.

The amount of truly novel problems we're solving still seems low. "what Andy giveth, Bill taketh away", or I guess these days, "What Lisa giveth, Sundar taketh away"?
Lol this Major Joseph Murphy is, pardon the pun, batshit crazy.

He's conflating an aerosol spike protein vaccine administered to bats (i.e. a nasal vaccine) with a a full fledged virus (that he thinks became SARS-CoV-2). He also seems to think that said bat vaccine/virus was based on a nonexistent virus that targeted humans (can't have been SARS, since SARS-CoV-2 is so different from it) which was changed to target bats for the vaccine, and thinks that administration of the vaccines will cause the virus to be selected back into a variant that is deadlier to humans like SARS.

Basically he's a conspiracy theorist + anti-vax nutter who has no idea what's going on here.
Yes but they cannot do it per group. Or per message.
Ugh, who cares about this person and their recent experiences? I just want to know about why hyperlinks are blue and they've mentioned their circumstances in both paragraph one and paragraph four, wasting at least four seconds of my time! It's a blog on internet culture, it doesn't need any personal element. /s
Hm... i try to use "chat" on your site and got "Something went wrong, please try again or email..."
That was a confusing point in the article for me. I thought it meant that people doing mental math would tip on average $1 more than a computed option.
> I’m very critical when a company like Slack cannot find the time and resources to make native clients.

It's not a matter of finding resources, it's a matter of finding that to be the best use of resources. Obviously they could have native apps for major desktop platforms with the energy put into the Electron app, and performance would probably be better, but would they have feature parity? And if you increase the resources, would the best use of that increase be into maintaining native apps for each platform of Electron?
Storage cards for many fast nvme/ssd drives in hot swap bays? I haven't don't much with this, but from the outside view it looked like the PCIe slot woukd be the real limiting factor if your got a bunch of nvme based drives that could each pretty much saturate the connection.
> Software is expected to rot and be rewritten every 3-5 years in the latest language du jour.

That's simply not true in general. There are plenty of fields where this is not the case. Control software for airplanes, power plants, medical implants, military equipment, etc.; also banking- and insurance software, certain scientific HPC libraries, software for spacecraft (especially deep space missions) and so on.

The software world doesn't just consist of web development, cloud computing, and cheap consumer products :)

Ten years ago I did some consulting for a large merchant wholesaler and their backend ran on IBM mainframes. At some point I was maintaining CICS programs written in high level assembly with changelogs dating back to 1984 (after getting some coaching from the resident senior programmer first).

This was a multi-billion dollar business and the software had to work. 24/7, 365 days a year. Every minute the system was down cost thousands of dollars. If you managed to mess up the system controlling the warehouse logistics, monetary loss was the least of your concerns, though - a dozen angry truck drivers asking for the guy in IT who messed up their schedule was far scarier :D

So yeah, in environments like this, every little change or update had to be carefully planned and agreed upon by all stakeholders from all departments.
All code is craft; the systems they implement are engineering.
South Florida restaurants have been doing that for decades. Especially South Beach Miami. They get so many European and South American visitors who don't even consider American-style tipping, so they started adding it automatically. I agree, however, that it should be much more visible, or that waitstaff should clearly state out loud, a suggested tip is already added. But I think that since 90+% of customers are vacationers and not locals, the restaurants don't feel like they are jeopardizing repeat business by not mentioning it.
And their attempt at coverup worked for a while. I am not an avid follower but I know Zerohedge was banned for a time on Twitter after posting about a lab leak, because it was thought to be a fringe conspiracy theory because every doctor signed that damn letter.

What a crisis of leadership.
How did he propagate this virus? Did he send everyone an email saying "Click here for hot chicks for free!", or what?
See my other comment above.

Hiring a part-time technician to fix the hardware isn't cheap. It's probably cheaper to outsource it to a 3rd party or even sell away the laptop and buy a new one. It doesn't make economic senes to have a technician to fix a $250 laptop.
Yes, I am incorrect with that article so when determining covid pediatric severity vs normal flu year let's just go ahead and assume all 400 pediatric covid deaths over 1.5 years are correctly classified.

You are incorrect on pediatric flu deaths in a normal year being around 1. See this link to the CDC [1] about the 2019-2020 season:

"total number of flu deaths in kids reported to CDC for that season to 199."

which is not around 1. 199 deaths for 1 year is not hundreds of times smaller than 400 covid deaths over 1.5 years (averaged 266 over 1 year). When will you admit you are wrong on covid being “hundreds of times more lethal for children than the flu”?

The "echo" is actually from multiple spatially separated stations simultaneously transmitting the same message. You're hearing the differences in time of flight. The overlapping signals don't interfere as one might expect because they use single sideband modulation.
>Dunning-Kruger has nothing to do with this exchange. That effect is an observation that less intelligent people tend to overrate their abilities more than higher intelligent people. I’ve not rated my abilities at all in any of these exchanges.

False again. Dunning-Kruger is not about intelligence. It is about 'the cognitive bias whereby people with low ability at a task overestimate their ability.' If you're saying you don't assign yourself any ability to determine if someone was to blame, then I guess you're also saying your claim of 'all the blame' being with the cult leaders to merely be a meaningless statement made by someone devoid of any confidence in their ability to make it.

"Dunning-Kruger-esque": I'm referring to the limited ability we have to know what actually happened at Waco, which you then parley into the ability to outright assign that you have the ability to know where ALL the blame lies for what happened at Waco.

>Calling a federal law enforcement agency a domestic terror agency over Waco is precisely what I’m objecting to for the reasons I’ve given.

How many times must I repeat myself? I said DoJ should start with 'the domestic terror agency that fired upon civilians at Waco and Ruby Ridge.' Again, where are you pointing out that I said that I was calling them domestic terrorists BECAUSE of Waco? We've belabored this straw-man over again, it's not what I said.
Replaying something with toy weapons, is not really the same, as fighting for real. But it would probably make for some approximation.

Ha yeah very valid question. Noteshelf is a plain sketch notepad on ipad so is distinct from the others.

Why Bear vs Notion - to pick Notion up and write a quick note isn't great. It's much more organized. Bear is better for this.

Why Notion vs Bear - Better for making structured organized notes, better sharability / collab, rich formatting options. I tend to use notion when I want to share notes or plans externally.

Why Roam vs Bear - Bear syncs via iCloud Drive. My work does not allow iCloud drive syncing. This means Bear's notes would be local which I don't want.

Why Roam vs Notion - This is probably the least justified. I wanted to try Roam again for work notes + research. I do really enjoy the bullet point simplicity and linking of Roam. But I know you could do this on Notion. However, once again I feel like there's more structure with Notion and it's less easy to jot down some simple bullet points.

Is it possible that some companies with e.g. VC funding behave in a similar way to an employee who counts dollars on the clock, padding time with busywork to make it through another payday?

There may be a much broader culture of unproductivity, which manifests in this and other ways.
With sufficiently fast memory bandwidth, does dedicated GPU memory become irrelevant? AFAIK discrete graphics on laptops still share the main memory, but at what point does that become a standard setup on desktops too?

A word used - by others, if not the parent - to argue for doing nothing. Currency isn't 'natural', nor literacy, nor the Information Age nor modern healthcare. E.coli is natural, however. We should not be satisfied with natural.
>Imagine if you bought a 4K television that had AppleTV built in, and then you find out that the 4K feature is only available if you use the built in AppleTV interface, and HDMI is limited to 1080P.

That would be a very bad product design decision. I would realize that I had made a bad purchase and I would return the TV to the store and buy one that didn't do that. There are lots and lots of TVs to choose from. On the other hand, if you really like AppleTV, you might not care. Either way, it is the consumer's choice, so no harm. Lots of TVs have features people don't like.

>There is a case to be made that such anti-competitive behavior is illegal.

No there isn't. iOS is a minority platform (globally) by a very large number. Also, there are a number of app based messaging options, many of which are quite popular and some use strong encryption.
I recall purchasing Framemaker in a PC brick-and-mortar store around those early times for something like $650, it was by far the most expensive piece of software I'd purchased. I'm not sure I've personally bought any software for that much in the decades since.
When people compare energy usage like that, they are making an implicit argument that the energy usage of bitcoin is a "waste".

This is what i dislike about the argument that PoW should be banned - that it wastes energy that could otherwise have been used for something else. I argue that it is not a waste, because the person who is paying for the energy does not consider it a waste. No one else can make this judgement.

The only weakness of this argument is that some energy sources have externalized the cost of emissions. I would very much like to see an emissions tax to account for it (which makes sense to do, regardless of one's position on PoW).
I think kids definitely can fix their own laptops if they're theirs.

In this case, the school would prohibit the kids to open or attempt fixing any of the laptop. And why kids should even attempt fixing it? They can turn it in to get a "new" laptop. Thus, this doesn't happen.
> The whole point of using C++ in 2018 is to have control over memory layout and CPU instructions emitted.

Memory layout, yes.

CPU instructions emitted? Not so much.
Slack has way more killer features than inline images, such as easy to control authentication.
Not in the US. Danny Meyer tried a no-tipping policy at at Union Square Cafe but repealed it relatively quickly.
>For Teams, the only disadvantage is you can’t share your screen and video simultaneously when running as a tab; but I find the screen sharing experience to be better otherwise when running as a browser tab.

did they fix multi-stream video yet? last time I checked in the browser version you could only see one video stream (ie. webcam), whereas on the desktop app you could see multiple.
Others on here are doing that. A few counterpoints: 1. Electron is cross platform - something the author never even mentions, 2. Really, PHP is the prefect end state for web development of all scale?

The lack of even acknowledging these things is what really discredits the author in my book.

Absolutely agreed. The original poster, if more knowledgeable, should set the record straight. Attacking the article without any valid counter is just point-scoring.
Greece and Rome hardly count. They aren't surrounded by incredibly dry deserts where paper or papyrus would last for 4000 years. Would it even last a year in Italy or Greece? Doubtful.
I think the issue is that LARPing battle is a poor substitute for what the body can take and how people respond to real pain and damage. We might be getting to the point that we can get somewhat of a foot take on the damage with VR eventually.
Apparently Rails is the killer application for Ruby just like Unix/Linux is a killer application for C. What Ruby enabled is something that was not feasible to be done by Java, PHP, Perl and Python (top four most popular languages for web at the beginning of Rails). For better perspective on the matter please check an excellent article by Patrick Lee, the author of the new Stanza language.

The "it was incredibly common" part is the theory. I don't know if anyone else besides Roger Ekirch supports it, which doesn't mean it's false of course. Our ignorance of things past is gigantic and not helped by the fact that history (and stories) tend to be constantly rewritten.
How to decarbonize the oil and gas industry
> Should it not be possible to style a native GUI application with the same framework language as for a website?

Not if the native controls are strongly opinionated as to style language, such that there is limited themability, unless you go to the level that your “native GUI” is doing the equivalent of drawing and reading mouse touches from a canvas to implement a custom UI rather than using more specific native controls.
But that's partisan, is there anything talking about "terrorism" as in, equally abhorrent acts without regard to partisanship?

The article referenced has the January 6th protest listed there and then claims no deaths from left wing attacks, even though there are plenty of left wing protests comparable to January 6th in which people were killed. They are comparable, so it seems to me to be cherry picking what you'd call "terrorism." Any source that calls January 6th terrorism or BLM protests terrorism are not to be taken seriously for this reason. Either they both are or they both aren't, and I don't want to start calling every single disobedient act terrorism just because some people get out of hand, that's a slippery slope.

The arricle puts jihadist and other right wing related violence under one umbrella, so as to pad the numbers it would seem. You can call jihadism "right wing" and you'd be right, but you'd be ignoring an ideological distinction so plainly obvious that one would be warranted in presuming said ignorance is deliberate.
Yup, here’s an article talking about this as applied to crypto, like Bitcoin: https://tftc.io/martys-bent/issue-678/

> We haven't even touched on the future dynamics of mining, which provides the long-term security that people are so worried about.

> As oil and gas companies continue to wake up and realize they can use all of the FREE gas they are currently wasting on their fields to mine bitcoin, this will severely reduce the price at which your average miner can mine profitably. An externality that many are blind to at the moment.
Seems like it. My points in that regard about only have this setting be accessible behind a login and 2fa is the way to go. You sold or otherwise deprived yourself of your iPhone and forgot to turn off iMessage? Contact Apple support or go to an Apple store. This functionality disproportionately benefits bad actors and intelligence agencies around the world.
IRC isn’t even remotely competitive vs Slack for 99% of its users. It’s the same ignorant take you hear from people who complain about Excel files. The overwhelming majority of users do not experience the cosmos at all like you do.
I think most systems today do more with less complexity than let us say 10 years ago. I worked on Java systems that have 12-15 layers in the stack. Good luck finding that kind of complexity in a modern system.
Maybe. There are plenty of establishments that expect (even prod) you to tip the same high percentage when the base price is already hundreds of dollars so nobody should need pay compensation.
> I am going to set up a self hosted git server for my personal projects straight away. I am thinking about Gitea, any one can share their experience with it?

Nope, sorry.

> Or alternatives?

The answer is in the question: "git server". What's wrong with just git? Why do people think they need some other crap on top of it? (Sorry, stupid question, I know why: Because they've been conditioned to by GitHub's successful EEE campaign.)
Ever since working from home during the pandemic sleeping from like 2am-6am at night and like 4pm-6pm has become pretty common for me. Not sure if that counts as "biphasic" or just a very long nap but definitely seems fine to me.
The DRM often conflated with HDMI (HDCP) existed years before the first HDMI cable was sold. Or were you saying DRM when it comes to a physical port specification? In which case, that wouldn't really be digital rights management.

Is it possible to use the "windows" version of the Spotify electron client on Linux? That might make a difference since the Linux client is unsupported.
I work on a massive CMS and he’s correct. There is an insane groupthink going on in webdev.

Another team in my org has spent a year reinventing our client side js so that our templates are now mixed with the svelte runtime. All to render/update cards on the page that can update when an api pings the page.

So 6 months later they’re still building the svelte integration and have only shipped 2 pages to users.

This is a cms where you should be able to create any page via a combination of SSR components but no, now it’s a mix of SSR, SSR svelte within handlebars, and client side svelte. So the edit ui is now a fragmented mess of parts of the page that can and can’t render, ruining the default model of the cms all because they couldn’t bear to write vanilla js. They also added react the year before and now it just sits there decaying.

Literally madness.
