I do sympathize with them though if they decide to put in ads, endorsements, solicit for likes and subscribers because from what I hear putting out high quality videos requires a lot of investment that needs to be compensated in one way or another. YouTube itself incentivizes churning out new content frequently.

Perhaps it's the infrastructure that's broken. Something like the approach that Brave browser implemented could make the above less necessary, where a viewer has a wallet with funds which get distributed to the various the producers proportionally to time spent on their content.

There's a supply crunch, sure. And if you reallocate from rental to owner-occupied, you reduce the crunch somewhat on that side... but you make the supply crunch even worse for renters.

It's a popular policy decision for many politicians, since owners vote at much higher rates than renters; but I wouldn't call it good policy.

It is. Who precisely is "We"? I personally never said 0x123457890 was the OG Bored Ape. What if I band together millions of people and determine that 99x12345678 which I own is actually the OG Bored Ape. How can you stop me? Isn't that what OpenSea is effectively doing...providing a centralized trust system to say "well of course everyone knows OpenSea is the source of truth because everyone knows it and the consensus is on the blockchain"

I gotta say, I'm impressed with what they put together for the FFM. Previous iterations were terrible, in the way only Oracle can. In particular the ability to upcall and to manage mostly-safe handles off-heap with a declarative API is pretty nice. However, if I understand this correctly, FFI calls are going to be limited to modules explicitly authorized on the command line, which blows and defeats the purpose of having all this safe stuff being required instead of manipulating pointers directly. I assume there's some kind of reason for this but it seems like it's just going to be extra noise limiting time-to-hello-world without benefit. It still remains the most relevant part of P/Invoke that it's so performant and clean that the standard library makes all its syscalls with it, rather than getting magic backdoors from the runtime.
Even on paper the match between Japan and Russia was much more evenly matched. Japan was balls deep in their whole "speed run European history" phase at that time. Russia didn't care about the territory in question nearly as much and it was more of a "fisticuffs between two people who already are predisposed to fight each other" war.

Ukraine isn't that big and isn't developing like that right now and the Russian motivation is very different.
The people you should be blaming are the ones who decide the web standards. The browsers are bloated and updated frequently because the web standards are bloated and updated frequently. That also killed off many alternative implementations. I'm sure that the requirements of the web platforms can be met without so many APIs and formats. They ruined a completely functional platform.

Super interesting point. I've helped integrate it into some existing projects and it is not fun.

I don't disagree with this. A couple differences in my mind are support (that you're paying for, and has an incentive to be as helpful as possible) and on-going updates (a cookiecutter won't help you integrate improvements over time, as far as I know).

It's influencing the world but individuals are not governments. let's assume there is a .1% chance of nuclear war over the next 2 years. how do I modify my life. You have a greater chance of dying from natural causses than nuclear war.
I don't think this is true. Wars have been successful at those goals without the hundreds of thousands or millions of souls lost to unsuccessful wars.

There was no real hearts and minds in, say, Afghanistan. A real hearts and minds campaign would see at least as much on improving the quality of life as in destruction, yet in Afghanistan or Iraq, enough money was spent that the US could have provided every single family with a car, modern electronics, built a brand new house, and more - what was spent in Afghanistan was 350 000$ for each Afghan family!

And yet the average Afghan saw war, devastation, death, and famine. The level of material investment is so bad that, adjusted for inflation, the average Afghan was significantly richer during the Soviet-Afghan war as during U.S. occupation.

I can't see how you can come to the conclusion that real effort was spent on hearts and minds when so much money was spent on war when the living condition of the average Afghan only got worse.

If you want hearts and minds, you need to materially and significantly improve the life of whoever you are occupying at the bare minimum. You can't impoverish a population that's already massively impoverished and claim that you're doing hearts and minds.

I only see him calling this a small war compared to what the USA could have brought to the battle field.

At the peak, there were about 550,000 US troops in Vietnam. In World War Two, they eventually fielded 10 million persons (https://warfarehistorynetwork.com/2017/06/26/us-involvement-...).

So, if the political will had been there at home, they could have sent a lot more.

I also think what you describe in “Congress and Senate couldnt… made it equally untenable at home.” is precisely the argument this paper made: that war was lost in the USA, not in Vietnam.
Buying a house is tying up money in an asset with a negative dividend (that is, you pay to own it): taxes + repairs. You don't really have any access to that money, unless you sell and move to a cheaper location. In expensive locations this could be problematic: tying up $1 million, which could earn 3% in dividends (say KO or something) and instead pay 1% tax + repairs, I'm not sure that's a great investment. The $30k of dividends would pretty much pay rent on an apartment. Now if you have a family, this calculation might change.
>does not say anything about those same people's desire to continue doing so

Well, I'm not sure about that. I feel that we are all responsible for our government to some degree. If the gov is really doing evil things without accountability, then it is the people's responsibility to change it.

The problem is that it is very easy to move from democracy to dictatorship, and very hard to move from dictatorship to democracy, with the latter transition almost always requiring the use of force. Its a big, gigantic step. It's starts when Russian mothers and fathers, Russian neighbors and shopkeepers, start whispering about really taking up arms against Putin.

This is a very problematic line to cross, mainly because people are stupid and will trigger 'a revolution' about anything and everything. The information landscape is treacherous for false positives, now more than ever. Consider the example of the pitiable 1/6 insurrectionists. Every one of them thought they were defending their country against a threat. But they were all badly wrong, and now they suffer for it. But the instinct to put their lives on the line for their constitution is, in my old-fashioned belief system, admirable. They just got tricked into fighting for the wrong side.
Neat. I think this device is fundamentally different from mine in that it appears to stream the events over bluetooth rather than storing them locally and then downloading the "session" over bluetooth. Make sure you don't get one like mine if you want to stream them.
What's the big deal?

Seems to me we are still at status quo, but with far less of a difference between the two main approaches to computer performance, and those are:

Run a lot of watts and dump the heat somewhere, or optimize performance per watt and max that out to best case.

Which do people prefer?

Right now, the M1 chips are exemplary in terms of overall performance and are unmatched in terms of total energy used to be top overall performers.

This is great!

We just did not have this option before. Not performing at the top like the M1 chips do.

And if watts and overall hardware configuration does not matter, the peak performance is right there to be done in the usual way, old news.

For me personally, I love the high performing, very efficient M1 chips and whether they are the absolute fastest does not matter due to the differences being smaller than they have been in the past.

YMMV, of course.

But, "this fight... never win" seems way over dramatic.

It's the first in a series of what will end up being seriously SoC type designs with a lot highly integrated, or at the least, densely packed onto what we will find to be small printed circuit boards running off either normal batteries that have a very long discharge time, or much smaller ones that compete with what is out there now by doing more, running longer.

The people who appreciate the more mobile like hardware and overall fast and efficient computing experience won't be won over with a speed difference, unless it is seriously huge.

Most use cases mean the CPU is either waiting on the user for more input, or best case knocking out longer background tasks using far less energy to do so.

Beyond that, for the vast majority, none of this really has an impact on a users computing day.

I run a Lenovo that is a whole lot slower than my M1 machine. The M1 is a pleasure and has a similar run time to the Lenovo, which has two batteries!

Sometimes the faster compute matters. Most of the time it does not.
you keep telling people to worry. maybe we don't want to. how does worrying change anything.
> graph from multiple OPs literally say otherwise

Not sure what this refers to. But whoever those OPs are, they're wrong. The Fed has remitted tens of billions of dollars to the Treasury every year since 2011 [1], including from realized (not mark to market) gains.

> normally there's a multi-trillion dollar pool of buyers and the market is healthy

You said the Fed "bought assets which literally nobody else wants." Present tense. Literally.

> balance sheet is not some spot where the government makes investments for profits. Sure they had to cycle assets but they certainly didn't exit anything.

They sold. You can tell because "transaction category," column C, says "sale" versus dollar rolling.

> Why did the fed not do this pre-2009

If by "this" you mean QE, 2008 was the first true American credit crisis since WWII and the first depression-level threat since the Great Depression.

> this was certainly not some brilliant profitable play

Of course not. Making money isn't the Fed's job. It will lose money trimming its balance sheet because its policy goal, higher rates, directly reduce the value of those assets. (In the same way that its 2008 policy goals, lower rates and financial stability, directly increased the value of its purchases.)

The Fed bought assets, in 2009 and '10, which people want to buy and have wanted to buy for a decade. They verifiably sold many of those assets. They're planning to sell much more in the near future. To buy these assets they had to issue liability in the form of money, which is literally their job. Every claim in the original comment [2] is materially incorrect and/or fundamentally misguided.

I use Typescript daily and I really enjoy working with it. I've been working with Javascript for quite a while and Typescript made my life a lot easier.

I do however (possibly controversially) find the Javascript world in general rather tiring. There are constantly new (not necessarily more advanced) ways of doing things the most basic things. For me, it's like a ZOO with loads of wild animals, frameworks, Github issues and opinionated evangelists.

Don't get me wrong here - learning new tech is great. Especially if you want to stay sharp until the old age. Nevertheless, sometimes you just want to focus on getting stuff done and not trying out a brand new invention of rendering an input field (which will work and look exactly the same to users). While Typescript is much more than that, a similar sentiment might be making your fellow devs reluctant in trying it out.

Following from the above, I'd imagine that there is some kind of a person (top-down approach: head of engineering, CTO?) that makes decisions about code standards and tech. It might be worth talking it through with them, especially if you have concrete examples how Typescript could improve productivity. That's how we got Typescript into projects at the last place where I worked.

From the perspective of the devs themselves (bottom-up approach), a good motivator might showing the momentum that Typescript has in its adoption. There is a high chance that they'll have to learn it anyway if they plan to move companies at some point which makes it a good tradeoff to start earlier. Get paid for learning kinda argument.
I mean, it almost makes sense. A client that is not just a facade for some proprietary backend? In 2022? Preposterous!

Agreed. It was one of the first movies that made me realize what animated movies were truly capable of. Fast forward 10 years and now I'm absolutely obsessed with animation -- it's one of my all time favorite art forms! You can convey emotional ideas so specifically and precisely with the control that animation gives. It's fantastic, and KFP makes great use of the medium. There are few kinds of entertainment I enjoy more than a well-written animated movie.

I build a myrinet HPC cluster or two, vague memory that it was 2.5Gbit. Worked well, I particularly liked the cables (thin and optical, way nicer than IB cables). When I went to replace them the Myrinet 10G was repeatedly delayed, and seemed to be focusing on 10G ethernet, not MPI/HPC.

We ended up going with a new upstart called Pathscale, which then was bought by qlogic, and then Intel. Our benchmarks showed a clear win over Mellanox at the time. In particular on larger jobs the Mellanox drivers seemed to consume a fair bit of ram for each client you were talking to, so even 32 nodes jobs would consume a fair bit of ram. We even built a cluster out of hypertransport connected infinipath cards in a "HTX" slow instead of PCIe. Managed I believe 1.4us latency, which is still reasonably competitive today. We built SDR (first public cluster), DDR (first public cluster), QDR based clusters. But then Intel said the new Infinipath would not be supported on AMD nodes, or even previous gen Intel nodes, I said it's a non starter and switched to Mellanox. I talked to several other HPC sites that said the same thing, months later Intel killed off the product. Sad and short sited on Intel's part.

A no first use policy is never going to happen, because it completely flies against all of the prevailing wisdom about nuclear deterrence[1]. Nuclear powers benefit heavily from ambiguity about where their "red line" is that would need to be crossed for them to use nukes, because that limits the ability of others to act against them for fear of crossing the line. Drawing a lower bound on where your red line is, like with a no first use policy, frees up others to act against you because they know how far they can safely go (literally anything short of using your own nukes in the case of a no first use policy).

I'm intently curious what sort of common-sense explanation you'd ascribe to how one programs an ordinary classical computer. Would you describe a computer programmer as one who orchestrates a delicate movement of charge through an intricate arrangement of n–p–n bipolar transistors?

Quantum computers really can be instructed to do an abstract operation on an abstract quantity, just like I can on an ordinary computer. You tell quantum computers to add and multiply, just as you do in your favorite programming language. In the programming language Quil, which a couple quantum computers of different base technologies use, one can literally write down a matrix of numbers in a program to define a new mathematical function, and later use that function to manipulate the contents of the computer's RAM[1]. On top of this, you can have loops, boolean conditions, and all that jazz a programmer expects. You don't even need a physicist to do this; a completely physics-ignorant programmer could do this.

All this business about energy levels, evolution, etc. are distractions, just as the electrodynamics of a transistor are distractions from what it means to program a computer.

[1] I'm abusing the word "RAM" here, where I truly mean the state of your quantum register(s).
