Why would Elon Musk spend his capacity to get things done on something like Twitter? He's got planets to colonize. Interesting point to question his motives, but for now I take him at his word regarding the free speech thing. I guess it could be something more nefarious as well.
Make is a very old codebase that you shouldn’t change in dramatic way anyway. It’s in itself an outdated piece of software which has far better and more modern replacements.

No need to break it for older systems.
I've not found this; pyenv and poetry sort it all out for me, and I could simplify and just make do with one.
The license fee is likely to be scrapped in 2027: https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-60014514. Alternative funding is almost certainly going to carry significant strings (either from advertisers or more direct control from government officials).

Arguably there has been a multi-decade push to extinguish the institution altogether, or at least to drastically shrink it and simultaneously bring it under more rigid government control. The trend towards official state broadcaster and away from public interest broadcaster has been ongoing for many many years.

I think the BBC is not exactly like RT in degree or in kind, but there is a definite trend towards its kind. It's also interesting to note that some of the official US complaints about RT influence on US public opinion are based on RT platforming legitimate social critics in the US. Dissidents for thee but not for me.
Oh wow yeah I forgot about the stack traces. Clojure was the second programming language I ever learned, after self-teaching ruby. lmao ruby does not prepare you for a 700-line stack trace full of java classes you've never even heard of because they're deep in the implementation.

Does it still do that? I remember "better error messages" being a supposedly-coming-soon thing for the couple years I was using it. I eventually got used to it but damn what a hostile experience. In retrospect I'm pretty surprised I stuck with it. For better or worse I don't have that same tolerance & resilience now.

> A perfect target for Musk to come in, do a few sweeping changes, and get out. Thereby proving once again that he gets shit done where others can't. Case closed.

Whatever merit or lack thereof Musk on the Twitter board has, I would bet money this particular scenario does not happen. Musk is not a turnaround expert or corporate savior (and for the record he's not claiming to be).
Yikes. No thanks.
Absolutely true.

I still want to comment because your comment doesn't do that demo justice.

It's the first time I expierienced that awkward feeling looking into reality while watching the video of that city.

We are Eye opening close to cross over uncanny valley after reaching it that soon.
> We are planning to first open-source our Rust UI framework, and then parts and potentially all of our client.

That's pretty cool. I'll be interested in trying it once all of the source is available. A proprietary terminal program that connects to googleapis.com, sentry.io, segment.io, etc. is a *total* non-starter for me.

Good luck with the beta! I'm really interested to see a release I'll be able to try.

(FWIW, I think the model, in macro, sounds like something I'm glad to support. It reminds me of Bitwarden, for which I happily pay every year.)

I struggled with depression for several years, and what got me out was a combination of understanding myself better and improving the most important relationships in my life, basically personal development.
If you're interested/open to this, I can talk about it in more detail. Don't want to just start sharing a bunch of stuff if no one wants to know lol.

EDIT: Sorry maybe that's a bit too vague. I meant things like figuring out my thought patterns, my specific pain points, past traumas/wounds, etc. and also things like my (and my partner's) personality traits and tendencies.
Bullshit. I wrote:

Mortal sins are serious sins, venial sins are less serious sins. "Colloquial" doesn't mean you get to delete words you find inconvenient or don't understand.
I'm pretty excited about it too! I remember when I initially started the research I was amazed that this didn't already exist.

Of course blog and SEO spam is such a problem on Google now that it looks more similar to your Pre Google steps.

I don't know how to easily fix that though. Simply "crawling the entire internet" is still not a simple problem, let alone doing something more useful with the result than google can. Ahrefs is an interesting business but not what people mean when they say the next google. "Machine learning" but I think google is all over this already (and has been for years).

Google does a bad job at getting user feedback about results while reddit does better so people search reddit, maybe a hybrid is an opportunity.

If you want to avoid SSRIs, you can try ketamine treatment. Should be able to find it in most major cities now. In my city the cash price is about $400/a session and you probably need 2-3 sessions. Pros: if it works you will start to feel better in just a few days, and you only have to get a few 2-4 hour treatments a year. Cons: hard to get insurance to pay for it, SSRI are cheaper.

The antibiotic course has had its day (2017)
The commentary I've read (and agree with), is that the metaverse itself just didn't hold up.

The internet did not become a new reality. Instead, our own reality is melding with the internet through always-on devices and miniaturized sensors and wide wireless networks.

Instead of some kind of digital lovecraftian portals hidden away in parts of realspace that connect to this magical deadly realm, the modern vision of cyperbpunk should probably have included something more like an ethereal plane -- a perfect mirror of the real world that happens to ignore its physical constraints and provide ways to manipulate and bypass the realspace.
Blueprints are very good in this regard. It makes the engine api super discoverable.
It’s a closed source paid spyware development tool that you rely on every day to get work done, what’s not to love about this idea?
Why on earth do you need to hack on GNUMake in the first place?

It’s old software which has far better and faster replacements like Ninja.

The whole design of Make itself is outdated and inefficient which is why tools like Ninja are much faster.
It was film in the old days, but all digital since early 2000's. I've always preferred open source software which has really come a long way since GIMP and friends were in their infancy.
My workflow has evolved over the years to suit my uses of photography. Mostly photos are raw material and highly manipulated for artistic purposes.

For my purposes jpegs have usually been good enough so I seldom need to do raw processing. For those times I have Darktable and RawTherapee installed, both are incredible programs that have worked well for me.

GIMP continues to be a primary tool. It's not perfect but it does many things extremely well. For example, making color separations for CMYK printing is pretty easy and straightforward. GIMP also allows effective image manipulation, particularly when plugins are added: gmic, cyan, resynthesizer, autosave.

Workflow also relies on other FOSS programs such as Scribus (for printing positives) and occasionally inkscape, krita, paint.net for certain image effects. Yes, it takes time and effort to work out components of a custom workflow.

I have no doubt proprietary programs offer greater levels of convenience (for "standard" workflow) at significant monetary cost. Like everything else tradeoffs are implicit, one approach isn't absolutely "better" than the other.

Like almost everyone else, I really want to like this product.

I imagine if it was open source, didn't have a bunch of strange network calls built in, and most importantly a third party audited the source code to make sure you're not doing anything wrong, then I'd be open to trying it.

The issue here is you have a black box, which will have complete control over my system. I have no idea what happens the moment I give you my sudo password, do you install a bunch of weird stuff in the background? How do I know this isn't just a keylogger?

I can't imagine any company approving this for internal use.

Equally concerning, what's your business model. Are you selling my data ? Will you deliver ads straight to the terminal ?

At the same time, I would absolutely love to see you. Someone do this, but as a transparent open source project. I'm just not sure how you can create a business from that.

I'm pretty immune to most JS ecosystem churn, but on package managers I'm feeling it.

All I want is a package manager that is correct, causes very few day to day issues and is going to work the same way for many years. Yet everyone seems to be optimizing disk usage and speed without even getting the basics (make it work, make it right) fully covered.

I don't understand why people are optimizing for disk space at all tbh. Like, have you ever edited a video project, used docker, installed Xcode? I cannot imagine what you must be doing for all node_modules combined to take up more than maybe 100 GB on disk.

pnpm seems to be the lightest of the bunch, which is nice but why even mess with symlinks and confuse other tools? Just put all the files in there, nest them and duplicate them and everything. I'll happily live with my 10 GB node_modules folder that never breaks and sometimes gives me a nice coffee break.

Possibly I'm actually just salty that Metro doesn't support symlinks and would otherwise be on the pnpm love-train.

Wanted to explain you how wrong you are, but read your other comments and realized that it's a waste of time. The disgusting words you are writing is not an opinion, it's a standard well-packaged russian narrative for western world. The same you can see on RT, Sputnik and other russian propagandist channels. I just hope that people understands how many of this kind of infected retranslators over there.

TensorFlow Ads on YouTube vs. PyTorch Ubiquitousy
I was going through some papers on Google for NLP/BERT/T5 models and after starting watching a video on Transformers (YouTube) in the next tab, there appeared an Ad on Tensorflow. I don't really understand why they're advertising! I understand there is a tough competition in ML/AI market or head to head combat with PyTorch. I wonder is it really worth it ?
Bear in mind basically one guy maintains the Python package installer and default packages repo, or at least he did for many years. It's open source.
This tactic is pretty common to get you into a possible MLM scheme. It happened twice to me, and once to my wife. They'll strike up a conversation with you while shopping by commenting on a nice article of clothing or something about you, which leads into a convo about where you work, etc.

They're so personable that you're thinking oh nice, I have a new friend and agree to have coffee. Then the second steps and on as the author mentions happens where they start to ask personal questions like if you're happy in life, what would it be like to not have any debt, retire early, etc.

This all happens over two-three meetings where they then start to talk about they have a group or mentor they work with that can get you going with your life goals.

We never made it into the actual meet the group / mentor part as we knew at this point something felt scammy about it and broke off contact after that.
OK, so the free speech versus censorship argument, let's go:

Speech rules exist on a spectrum from total free speech where you can threaten to murder someone or continually harass them, to total control where everything you say must pass inspection (say, letters out from a classified military base). Any position on that spectrum has tradeoffs. If you ban Nazis you are being censorious but at the same time, providing space for the people that Nazis hate where they won't have their existence constantly challenged. If you ban fake news and one side of the political spectrum puts out more fake news than the other, that side will accuse you of political bias. Where you draw the line is not an objective decision, it's one based on what you value. That's an ideological decision. Brian Armstrong banning "politics at work" is because he is probably a libertarian rather than a progressive and would rather shut up the political people at work so he can focus on making money without having his actions criticised. Twitter allows politics at work because it was founded by liberals and they allow staff to criticise the direction of the company. 8chan refused to censor their platform for ideological reasons, twitter does censor their platform for ideological reasons. Does that clear it up for you?
Ue4 used to rely on the world origin shifting hack too. But this has significant problems, especially in multiplayer.
Exact same experience except with Iceland. Google "top attractions in Iceland" and you get a bunch of garbage posts telling you about the Blue Lagoon. I ended up reading an entire book on iceland tourism and perusing many blogs and reaching out to many friends, and the Blue Lagoon is definitely not one of the top spots.
is that even legal? or can you just write whatever you want into a privacy policy?
>It's not open source, and "maybe it will eventually be" is unacceptable for such a core component of an engineer's workflow.

That's a huge overstatement. What's unacceptable about it (or any other software for that matter) closed-source?
It matters if you regularly dump huge amounts of text to the terminal. In other words it rarely matters to most people. In fact, if it did, more people would realise that the terminals they use are often quite slow compared to ones like e.g rxvt.

Most terminals don't even implement most well understood "hacks" to keep up with the apps they're running (e.g. "render" to a text buffer and render the text buffer to the screen separately and decoupled (multiplex or on separate threads)), because people rarely are affected enough to care.
Yeah, I did move on, but if someone were to pick up the torch, I would help out any way I can!
> Sadly Russia ruined that impression, it required no work on the part of the United States to do so.

The State Department would strongly disagree with you. Victoria Nuland recently gloated that they have spent over $5,000,000,000 supporting anti-Russian movements in Ukraine in the post-Soviet era.
And didn't Gibson write the screenplay for the film adaptation of Johnny Mnemonic where they coined the term iPhone in that one random scene for two seconds? Or did I imagine that?

Anyway I guess thats like the opposite of cyberpunk... or is it? :shrug-emoji:
Depends on your criteria, I guess. As a poetic fantasy, they are superb. But it's maddening how little sense they make as a way to navigate computer networks. (Why would you visualize servers and executing code in a 3D space that you have to physically navigate, when you could just... execute a command. Gibson's genius was recognizing that real computer hacking wasn't cinematic, and making up his own system.)

I still love his vision.
Seconded on the HP G2 dock, but with Windows laptops.

I use it to switch between my work and home laptops, and it has worked without issue. Currently running 3 monitors with it (2 1440p 1 1080p), gigabit ethernet, and at least 5 usb devices.
> why one shouldn’t experience imposter syndrome in the first place

So you're saying that people who are imposters shouldn't feel like imposters?

What if they are told that they need to present themselves as someone different from what they actually are to get ahead? To do that, they have to try to "believe in themselves" i.e. believe the lies they tell themselves... while also knowing deep down that they are lying to themselves.

You can't hide from yourself... you can try in the short term but it will bite you back in the long run.

> I experience is only in career/work/job environments

Not quite sure what you mean... Do you mean you only experience it in career/work/job environments? Maybe because that's where you have lied to yourself and others. Re-read that part of my comment you have quoted. I think you misunderstood it.

What I'm saying is, if you don't feel the "imposter syndrome" when you are in front of your dog, you don't have "imposter syndrome". You didn't have to impress your dog by being someone else... therefore you don't feel like an imposter in front of your dog... but you do in front of your client or your boss... because you have presented a different version of yourself that you have crafted for your benefit. That version of you is not you and therefore you correctly feel like an imposter.
I just don't like snow crash. Does that make me an outlier? The whole thing was silly and far too jrpg for my taste.

I mean, stealing the whole "skitchn" thing and slapping "Smooth move, ex lax" on a car when they try to shake you is just campy.

"Poor impulse control" -- just slapstick comedy at that point.
Wikipedia notes that JET produced 10MW of fusion power, sustained for 0.5 seconds, back in 1997. If that real-world rate of improvement continues, it'll reach 12MW for 50 seconds in 2047, and 13MW for 500 seconds in 2072.

Meanwhile, a set of 5 30-year-old diesel-electric railroad locomotives can reliably put out ~10MW of usable electrical power (vs. thermal production). Vastly cheaper, with a proven track record and 100% duty cycle. (Generously figuring 3 running, 1 standby, 1 down for maintenance.)

I don't think you understand either the perspective of depression or how these compounds work

This is my opinion as a formal student of neuropsychopharmacology

Its fine to use psychedelics if you have a responsible and prepared trip sitter, not alone which is what this entire thread is about. That's literally the most dangerous thing you can do and goes against all tenets of harm reduction

Depression isn't "losing" and what you say almost sounds like you're okay with some suicides. That's a bit disgusting

I ran Linux for a decade full time, and I feel like the latest version of Gnome are actually very good, but sadly the lack of software support is what keeps me on macOS, particularly for media. FinalCut Pro is, in my opinion, a much better video editing suite than Lightworks (the best editor I'm aware of on Linux), and there really isn't anything even comparable to ToonBoom on Linux [1].

The media scene on Linux is definitely improving (Blender and Lightworks and Krita have gotten good) but I think it still has awhile before I'm fully able to abandon my Mac setup. Honestly I just wish Darling would improve [2] enough to where I could just run everything I care about within Linux.

[1] I actually did google and apparently there is an OpenToonz Snap package, so I could be wrong on this. I'll need to play with it.

[2] No judgement to the Darling team, I realize it's a difficult project.
People can just use other tools like Bazel or Ninja.

I hope I am not coming off as incensed as you mentioned some people are.

To answer your question, despite its irrelevance, I don't mind if a bill functionally blocks something so long as it would be constitutional / legal if they were to explicitly block that thing. I tend to prefer explicit to prevent any confusion.
If you think this bill functionally blocks talking about gay people existing then it also functionally blocks talking about straight people existing.

I agree there is no age appropriate definition, but I don't really mind.

I don't think any teacher who is teaching 3rd grade and younger should instruct about any sexual orientation or gender identity regardless if they do it in an age appropriate manner so I don't particularly care if teachers are afraid of talking about sexual orientation to 5 year olds. I wish the bill went further and just outright banned any instruction on the topic to kids in 3rd grade and younger without the age appropriate portion.

Unfortunately due to the age appropriate wording a teacher may be able to instruct about sexual orientation to kids who are too young to be hearing it.
Plex works without Internet just fine, but very annoyingly to enable local streaming without Internet, you need internet.
