I think LO is just too complicated. There's a reason Google Docs and Quip have done well, and it's because 99% of people don't need any of the complicated features LO offers.

It would just be easier to start from scratch with simpler goals (i.e. not an MS Office competitor) rather than re-engineer an extremely complicated codebase.

I've been using Linux since 2005. Back then I used to use AbiWord, which was really excellent. Unfortunately, it's more or less dead now.

These days where possible I use markdown. When I need more, I'd rather use Google Docs (if on Linux) or Microsoft Office (if on my work Mac).
A Brief History of Webdev
Thanks. Beautiful articulation. We've spoken to countless father support organizations over the past year (local, online) and these are the 4 most accurate words I could find to describe the stories I've heard.
This article helps understand the state of affairs for dads right now (and by all means, it's not any better for moms - it's worse)

"A 2014 study published in Pediatrics found that depression among new dads increases by 68 percent during the first five years of Baby's life."
In 2014, when dads were barely starting to become a serious subject of academic research...

I've just changed the DNS settings to a deno deploy instance, rather then my own server. (I initially used my own server, because in deno deploy it's split accross regions, so you have to find a match in your region.)

If that doesn't work it might be that the DNS change didn't propagate yet to you, please use https://coffeehouse.deno.dev/hn.

I wouldn't read into it too much. This is just NBC's bias creeping in. It's not like they have a plethora of hardline libertarians kicking around who are gonna say "hey, can we title this differently?". The bill itself probably has some grand patriotic title.

look at my reply to sibling :)
Are both things linked? Even if they were, it's difficult to see how, say, caning as an accepted punishment, or gay rights suppression, can make an effect in ethnicity issues, unless we take this in the context of co-opting the cultural values of the less progressive culture present in the country. And in any case, stomping on some human rights for the greater benefit of the rest of society is kind of a gray area. The least we can do is recognize that grayness. Even if there existed a tangible payoff in acting and governing in that way, everyone should be aware of its price.
How did you get the parenting professionals to write the guides? Did you pay out of your pocket to write the guides and be available for on-demand support initially? Reason I am asking is I am working on something in a different health field and want to know how to convince the right medical professionals to get onboard.
I work at Stripe. We hustled too. But frankly, the scope of PDE that needs to be located in India is pretty small. If I was a company whose whole business was making it easy to deploy and manage software, I would be thoroughly embarrassed that I couldn't spin up a twelve factor app with a year of notice.
Notably, The Mandalorian used puppetry for all the aliens. Using CGI for backgrounds but practical effects for stuff the cast actually interacts with seemed to work really well.
Bully as an adjective means "good". It's mostly archaic at this point, but you do still hear people use the idiom "bully for you" occasionally. Theodore Roosevelt liked to use the adjective, and he is where the term "bully pulpit" came from.
I have problems with my liver and don't drink alcohol anyway. As for FDA - they allow chlorinated chickens so I'm not so sure.
This is a toy problem to illustrate that CoPilot cannot write code that requires mathematical reasoning. It regurgitates solutions from the training set, via a mixed internal reresentation.
Agreed, but to be fair, the comparison is also with high profile "modern" movies.

"The Thing" to most people today is not "one of the greatest movies" but a horror classic and -- visual quality wise -- on par with "Phantom Menace" or "Jurassic Park", if not worse.

I think the criticism is valid: that the physicality of classic SFX is still mostly unmatched by CGI, and the eye and mind notice this.
Startup is growing quickly. Founder needs to find both high-potential engineers and experienced engineers. Hence the move to the Bay Area.

They've been having a lot of success recruiting graduating-students out of the university in their current town, so the Palo Alto option takes that playbook to Stanford.
Seems to me that this accelerates the trend towards a more declarative style of programming where you tell the computer what you want to do, not how to do it
This video from a few years ago is a great counterpoint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL6hp8BKB24

It's not defending all CGI, just arguing that we only notice it when it's bad. It's basically a toupée fallacy
The science on this is well established and available in layman's terms all over the web... girls need a dad and they need him early, and often. Send your soon-to-be former spouse this information. If necessary ask the Court to appoint a 3rd party advocate for the child.
One of the most interesting parts of Lee Kuan Yew’s book for me was when he talked about all the critics he sued for libel. He justified it as “of course I sued them for libel, otherwise why would anyone believe me when I said they were lying?”

Nowadays All movies are, to some degree, cg’d. Color grading (the final stage of the post-production process) is entirely digital, and things are being done with digital color grading which would have been un-dreamable in analog days.

Also, let’s not forget that lots of vfx address minor things like (from experience) removing an umbrella that the directors daughter accidentally left on set.

Finally, practical fx frequently require a digital helping hand. Like removing visible wires from fly by wire scenes.
They hit on a point I rarely see mentioned: ARIN makes acquiring assets as an individual prohibitively difficult and expensive. Especially for IPv6 where European LIRs hand them out like candy e.g. https://clients.stratagem.host/cart.php?gid=14
It also should be noted that CPUs are _ALSO_ bad at divergent branches.

Its just that in the CPU-world, "divergent branches" is called "branch misprediction". In the GPU-world, we have a better idea of how the "branch predictor" (or the equivalent thing to the branch predictor) works. Its called SIMD-execution / branch divergence.

-------

That being said: CPUs are way better than GPUs at divergent scenarios. Not only is the CPU branch predictor able to guess patterns, but its also able to execute in parallel to the rest of the CPU (out-of-order speculative execution and all).

So in highly divergent branchy code, CPUs work but somewhat slowly (if the branch predictor can't predict, then its useless). But if there's a simple pattern, GPUs are great.

If there's a pattern that can be detected at runtime, but is too difficult to program in to a GPU (ex: a binary search over a million elements will probably loop roughly 20 times), that's where CPUs win exceptionally over GPUs.

The CPU-branch predictor will predict 20-loops in your binary search. It might be a little bit wrong (19-loops needed or 21-loops needed), but speeding up those 20-loops is a huge benefit.
just came here to ask why the dudes in the dinosaur costumes need to be naked?!?
To me it's not about it's current capabilities. It's the trajectory. This tech wasn't even a thing 2 years ago. There's billions being poured into it and every time someone uses these tools there's more free training data.
Finding unknown sensors with I²C probing
My bet would be that it will never happen in a reasonable time frame. And also by that logic, writing that "documentation/spec" would just mean learning a new programming language the AI engine can parse making it as useful as a compiler. Anyone who has been writing and designing software for a while knows the cycle is way more complex than take some input and write code.

Let me know when the AI engine is able to do complex refactoring or adding features that keeps backwards compatibility, find a bug in a giant codebase by debugging a test case or write code that's performant but also maintainable.
> Requiring multiple sensors means that all of your sensor systems need to notice a danger

This is the opposite of true. In well-designed sensor fusion algorithms, every new piece of sensor data, however noisy, helps to overconstrain the estimate. Each sensor reading helps to inform the interpretation of the other readings. If your system is designed such that more information worsens your inference, you have designed a terrible system.
It's dorky and the opposite of "cool", but I've just been using Microsoft's Authenticator for a while. (I was on Windows Phone when I first set up many of my TOTP logins and it was the only trustworthy TOTP app in that store.) It gets the job done, and I've restored from backups across a couple phones now, so I find it reliable enough for my needs.
Black panther is the #3 highest-rated superhero movie on rotten tomatoes. Sounds like it’s even higher in its genre than The Thing (#138 in horror) and Alien (#5). Black Panther is not a bad movie in other aspects - but the parts that use (and overuse) CGI look as fake as any other Marvel
Production. So how good the movie is isn’t necessarily a free pass for CGI abuse.
Both things can be true. Perhaps the problem is really hard, and Google also isn't attempting to solve it anymore.
How to minimise your run costs with You Build It You Run It
That's a good way to put it. I think there's also an element of sacrifice if you're even at least trying to be a good parent. And I'm more and more convinced that sacrifice is the ultimate source of fulfillment, as counterintuitive as that might sound.

Custom opcodes have a protected spot in the opcode map; but there's nothing that prevents two different CPUs from using the same custom opcode pattern to mean two different instructions.

Conceivably, you could trap, look up something like the mvendor/march CSRs to triangulate CPUID, and Do the Right Thing, but you usually added a custom opcode because you believe your performance/use-case depends on it.

Basically, your Option #3: "don't distribute binaries with custom instructions." If it's so important, it should get pushed through the standards process and then the binaries can be portable.
I believe that if regular crashes indeed exist, their cause must depend either on the Linux distribution and the combinations of libraries that are installed on the user computer or on the available memory size.

In that case the crashes are probably caused by bugs that are difficult to reproduce on the developer computers.

I have been using LibreOffice daily for many years, since almost immediately after it forked from OpenOffice. It continues to have various annoying behaviors, which I consider bugs (however less than those that I consider bugs in MS Office), but it never crashes on any of my computers.

However, I compile LibreOffice from source, on a Gentoo Linux.

The fact that LibreOffice never crashes in this particular configuration, does not give much information about how it might behave on Fedora or Ubuntu, because LibreOffice uses a very large number of external libraries and the crashes could depend on their versions.

Besides the dependence on the Linux distribution, there might be a dependence on the available memory. I do not have any computer with less than 32 GB RAM. Maybe the crashes are possible only on computers with less installed memory.
I missed this, can you elaborate?

I see that hot swapping the identity of a node pool may be difficult, but it's weird that you can't change the firewall rules.
My c++ is not great (so it is hard for me to tell what is going on) and I'm used to OpenMP where my understanding has always been that you tend to get a single thread per processor (or per hyper-thread) -- not sure if that is guaranteed with the way your code is laid out? Perhaps it really is a NUMA issue as others suggest. I will note that one other variation I had (as it looks like you are already splitting across threads) is that the chunk sizes were actually smaller than the # of threads which meant a faster thread would take more chunks rather than waiting on the slowest thread. Good luck!
Reminds me of the project that used convolutional networks to make artificial images look more realistic by mapping the style of real images onto them [0]. Just slap that on top of your CGI and call it a day.

Yep! This is the tutorial that finally cleared everything up for me. I'd previously found AdaCore.com, which was where I learned about the Community edition but not the FSF GNAT.
I use Rollbar for error monitoring and they still have a free tier even when divorced from Heroku. So does Papertrail.

I use Amazon SES for mail-sending because I have issues with all of the Heroku free tier products. I think I might pay a dollar or two for this each month.

Render offers a managed Redis product with a free tier.

I haven't had need for anything else, so ymmv.
Delta Dental uses Streamlit to make fast decisions
I think long and emotional are pretty much a given, and aren't at all negative.

Draining can be seen as negative but, if you see it in the same vein as "working on complex problems all day is mentally draining" (which is how I assume it was meant), then it loses that negative connotation.

That really only leaves lonely. When you consider how many moms groups there are, all boosting each other up with discussions of how wonderful they are (and, in some contexts, reassurance that they're not bad moms because of something)... dads (in general) are lonelier; they just don't have as much available support. It's not like that for all dads but, as a group trend overall, I'd say it's a fact.
It is a bit lazy to blame the consumer for the lack of quality. Kind of a light version of how consumption but not production is blamed for the climate disaster.

Spending your own money on quality news papers is not the only way to support good journalism. You could also ask your national government to spend more tax money towards your national media company (if you have one) or towards subsidizing independent ones. Or you could champion pro-consumer legislation which might prevent ad monopolies like google from swallowing most of the ad revenue.

Asking consumers to spend their money correctly is probably the least effective way of increasing the quality of production.

The Volume is an impressive feat of cinema technology, but once you notice how the camera never goes long, everything is clearly shot within a small soundstage area. The new Star Wars series The Book of Boba Fett suffers from this limitation more than its predecessor.
Just a bit of a warning with the whole login blockade that seems to be rubbing people the wrong way. At least for Apple, having a quick install -> uninstall flow for your app completely tanks your app store ranking
interesting how all media leans towards psuedo-liberalism, closeted racism, and anticulturism. And in the process, they cancel and defund themselves.

Mostly sequels, remakes, reboots or nth installments of a franchise.

Just seems lazy in that case really, what was the excuse? They didn't commission the artwork soon enough? Couldn't come to a decision on what the painting should look like soon enough?

Think filmmakers are just too used to large amounts of post work so you end up with this lack of decision making and things become bland and diluted.
Do you have a minute to talk about our lord and saviour, VC Money?
Congrats on successfully switching to a new field, and the success of your first product. Both are difficult feats to pull off.

I'd be interested in some comparisons between Signal Group Chats and this app. I understand they're not a 1:1 but could be opportunity for useful contrast. Particularly for privacy concerns, e.g. how Signal is unable to assist LEOs. Not that I'm up to no good, but it is interesting.
Thanks! And yes, I tend to agree that both are great options.
I don't know about "lonely," but I feel bad for the partner of any parent who's never found parenthood to be difficult or emotionally draining, since I think the most likely explanation is that that parent isn't pulling their weight.
> I think there’s a genuine mystery to be explained here: if people prefer traditional architecture by a large margin, how come we’ve stopped producing it?

It takes time—decades, perhaps centuries—to develop the techniques and traditions that produce beautiful architecture. When new materials like glass, steel, and plastic become the de facto standards in construction in a relatively short period of time, we can expect construction to be ugly or unrefined as we discover those techniques and establish those traditions.
Does anybody else remember StumbleUpon? I want that again. It was great for finding new content, better than Reddit or anything else.
As you can imagine, the developers learned of the issue almost immediately. Within literally five minutes they had submitted a fixed version to the Play Store. Unfortunately for them, app updates only go live after they've been reviewed by Google. One hour later, the app was still in the review queue. The developers reached out to Google multiple times saying it's an emergency. It took 36 hours for the update to get released.

By the end, the app had been bombed by thousands of 1 star reviews and lost most of its users. Many users who had paid for additional features were demanding refunds. I doubt I can even imagine how frustrating it must have been. How stupidly they sabotaged themselves, and how there was nothing they could do for their users even though the code was fixed in 5 minutes.
The failures will continue indefinitely, until Tesla decides to use stereopsis for ranging.
I stopped watching into the Spiderverse due to the bad CGI.

Plenty of people liked it, but I think it’s more people getting used to the style than it actually being good. Most modern animators and many viewers grew up with bad 90’s CGI, worse the old guard of computer animators where making it.

Taking with some of these animators they still recognize quality, but it’s like their uncanny valley has moved.
Why go to all the trouble of filming in the UAE and then just wash it out? In LoA, the desert is part of the story. In Dune 2021, it's just background for the action.
Because automatic braking systems are still a net positive, as frustrating as phantom braking is. It also has nothing to do with the stop sign issue.
I feel like you are very defensive here and I want to be sure we take time to recognize this as a real accomplishment.

Seriously though, I do doubt I can be fully replaced by a robot any time soon, it may be the case that soon enough I can make high-level written descriptions of programs and hand them off to an AI to do most of the work. This wouldn't completely replace me, but it could make developers 50x productive. The question is how elastic is the market...can the market grow in step with our increase in productivitiy?

Also, please remember that as with anything, within 5 years we should see vast improvements to this AI. I think it will be an important thing to watch.

You can see this easily in stunted cultural production (compare Singapore with Hong Kong, for example).

Singaporeans I know are very defensive though and love their “benevolent dictatorship” and bring up homelessness in SF or dirty sidewalks or something similar.

Right - the entire Volcker reporting framework would instantly reveal anything of that nature.

> If we make the EU more democratic, will it become less effective too?

This is probably the first time I'm hearing somebody claiming EU was effective ;)

However you are right - the fact that there is less attention on EU legislation enables different dynamics.

However I think it is quite different between countries how well they do. Here in Germany I am quite optimistic that the new government will do quite a few good things ... but maybe I'm too optimistic, but lots of good signals from my pov
People who say they don't like makeup, are often really just saying they don't like makeup they notice. Same is true with CGI.

CGI is actually everywhere and often goes unnoticed, unless it is bad. I point to set-extensions as a perfect example of invisible CGI done well:

> the author's entire argument is: <amazing old film> is better than <terrible new film>

I think that's unfair. Villeneuve's Dune is not a terrible film, and in fact its visuals are pretty nice -- though I agree they suffer in the comparison shot with Lawrence of Arabia.

The original Lord of the Rings trilogy by Peter Jackson, also mentioned in the article (as a "good movie"), is a special case: its visuals are both terrible and good. They are good when they are practical effects, e.g. the makeup of the Orcs looks terrific, and they are terrible when they are CGI, e.g. the mines of Moria have some of the worst CGI ever, and so is the embarrassingly bad troll.
I am a little bitter that it is trained on stuff that I gave away for free and will be used by a billion dollar company to make more money. I contributed the majority of that code before it was even owned by Microsoft.
