Because lazygit doesn't really work that way?

Because running tests doesn't necessarily play nice with quickfix?

I do set the make program to build and get errors via the quickfix when there isn't a good lsp server for the language. When there is an lsp server for the language, why bother with a special make command? - the same info is just populated inline for you.
They are not trying to get it for cheap though, they are paying large premium to what it would sell for individually. But, of course, there is a limit to what they can pay. So, either everyone gets more than they would individually, but if they are too greedy, no one gets anything.

8 out of 10 can work if the 2 are at the ends, and that often happens, greedy one makes herself an island. Doesn’t work if they are in the middle. Then they ruin it for everyone.

This is pretty great, I love the concept of modeling circuits with code. I wish it wasn't Rust, but only because circuits are based on functional programming, so there's no need for the added complexity of mutability or the other imperative concepts that Rust goes to great lengths to support. But it's good to get a reference implementation done before exploring doing this in Lisp or something.

I'd also like to see if this attempts to address the drawbacks of VHDL and Verilog. When I used VHDL in college in the 90s, I remember that it had a lot of trouble with basic stuff like describing a collection of bits as a variable and expecting math on that variable to "just work". Like maybe I could connect a circuit directly to one of the variable's bits, but it acted flakier than if I connected it to a verbose circuit described manually. I think it had something to do with timing, maybe rising/falling edge stuff, or maybe something needed to be latched before it could be used, etc. And maybe some of that has since been "fixed", although the problem was probably user error on my part.

Anyway, I'd like to see a thin layer above hardware description languages that takes care of that stuff so that they don't have surprising side effects. It's kind of like how XML is more powerful than JSON because it can have its own types, but the industry discovered that custom types encourage anti-patterns, so now everybody just uses JSON. I need a circuit to be built as described, even if it has additional training wheels inside for my protection, and then an optimization pass would remove anything superfluous or maximize stability by converting to stuff like gray code (which is probably already widely supported). I feel rather strongly that this issue has set FPGAs back by at least 2 decades, maybe longer.

It would be nice for something like the Internet Archive to offer "perpetual hosting" where you pay upfront for enough to fund hosting "forever". $100 would generate $1 a year in interest which would be enough to host small data.
AFAIK their policy is to block IPs that "obscure individual users". Another commenter quoted:

> Communities typically block edits from IP addresses that obscure individual users.

Surely they are aware that this is basically all IPs nowadays...?

If that's genuinely the policy then it should be almost equivalent to just requiring an account for all edits, so why not just do that?
I don't think Van Gogh is a good example. There are certain artists whose work outlives them by centuries, not many, but we still talk about Michelangelo, da Vinci, Monet, etc. The rest of your post is accurate, though.
There's another aspect to meatspace, which is asymmetric loyalty.

Most corporations are single-minded AI's with strictly zero loyalty to any worker without title =~ /^C..$/. The instant some spreadsheet cell turns yellow upstairs, you're out.

Due to the human firmware drive of expected reciprocity, people often forget this and make enormous sacrifices for $work, uprooting their families, working long hours, missing family events, etc. When making this sacrifice of loyalty, they expect the AI to reciprocate in kind with loyalty but THE AI DOES NOT HAVE THAT FEELING.

I recently joined a hot fintech only to have several offices closed and people sacked 5 months later, in order to keep an IPO route looking shiny (it wasn't).

The system has to be compatible with liberal ideals before its correct operation causes liberal outcomes.

A system that, based on their flimsy justifications, simply bans political opponents isn't liberal. The classic position a liberalist should take is that the service policy needs to be reformed to embody better values around free political speech.

I don’t really see what stops you from having your own site with static content you want to publish. Get a domain for like 10 years, with auto renewal enabled. Get a box somewhere, serve you static content. You can publish whatever you want for almost no maintenance for decades.

> How would that work in reality? Re-use the existing tests to build a new kernel from scratch? Sounds like a very far-out idea that wouldn't help with any of the current problems, but I'm happy to entertain the idea and hear your reasoning here.

While I would tend to agree that a full production replacement would be such a massive undertaking as to be impractical, https://github.com/nuta/kerla does something very like that - Linux userspace ABI on an all-new Rust kernel. (And even at this small scale, I find it mind-blowing that this worked)

Any anyways, removing threaded calls and then benchmarking is clearly going to make it slower.

Historically, the typical male had 0 offspring while a minority had many (this was not the case for females). When your median evolutionary outcome is atrocious, you will evolve toward high variance behavior like venturing away from the tribe to explore foreign places.

This leads to a higher fraction of male fossils because the preservation of remains is a very unlikely event requiring unusual conditions.

"These male mammoths—young, reckless, foolhardy—were just more likely to get into some kind of trouble and die, from getting stuck in a pit to running afoul of hunting humans. Luckily for paleontologists, some of these death sites—bogs, crevices, lakes—are pretty good at preserving remains. 'They were more likely to do silly things, like die in tar pits,' Gower says."

Ok, creating aliases you don't use is probably fine. I should've worded that more carefully.

However, the example code certainly modifies the same piece of memory from two different pointers, and so it broke the promise.
Somewhat off topic... Has anyone started developing alternative firmware/OS for these things much like the alternate OS for cell phones GrapheneOS for pixels and related alternatives? There are a few dumb TV's remaining but options are very limited. Is it even feasible to just replace the firmware and OS on these things? Is there a JTAG or similar interface over USB or ethernet?

[Edit] Upon thinking about this a bit more, I am going to assume someone will figure out how to replace the firmware and OS on these. Probably a better question is, what can these devices be used for beyond watching television? How much graphics processing power do they have? Do they have any advanced instructions in their chipsets or any special purpose chips?

I'd recommend reading "Taxation: The Lost History" for a deeper dive into why rent as public revenue is the most logical, ethical, and efficient tax base. It is book length, but worth it if you want to understand some of the deeper/intricate concepts. Some useful sections include:

I would add that while zoning reform is something that all Georgists should get behind, land rent as public revenue is really a separate issue. It is worth doing even with the present zoning in place. Consider a scenario where society is at a technological level where the only type of development possible is a single-family home. Rent as public revenue is still the most efficient and ethical tax base for society. Land assessment is based upon the highest and best legally-permitted use. If it is -only- possible to build single-family homes, this does not diminish the case for land rent as the tax base.

Yes, do it this way. When I learned vim, I just went to work and decided to use it one day. The only thing I did was get on Stack Overflow and look up how to turn off the arrow keys, so I would have to use hjkl.

He used those examples much more completely, in a more realistic comparison. I would quote it, but it's essentially the entire text hintymad quoted. For example, the phrase "woke BLM/Marxist/LGBTQ agenda" is referring to the bad side of those things (perceived and otherwise), not just e.g. support for gay or black people. He goes on to describe complaints not just of support for one or the other, but specifically the concept of imbalanced moderation between broader ideologies.

Simply put, showing support for LGBT while declining to show support for white supremacy doesn't say much - it says almost nothing, in fact, and therefore can not be held against a person or entity as proof that they do or do not unfairly moderate between the broader cultural categories that those two things fall into. Twitter may certainly skew left (or progressive or liberal or whatever) on moderation calls, but your test is overly simplistic, and seems engineered more for provocation than information.

Do not disagree at all...

It is just setting it up. Also sometimes people just lose interest in it. Even a couple of bucks a month would be not worth it. Then if you stand it up and 'forget about it'. What happens when your CC expires? It goes away. You do not care anymore so it is probably not something you care to fix.

For me 50-100 bucks a year is not something that is that big of deal. But if I have totally lost interest in it. It would be on the list of expenses to get rid of. It is one of those things a lot of clean up your financial problems people talk about. Look at all of those little charges. They add up to decent money sometimes. Not saying that happened here. But it probably does happen?

Yes. It turns out this works much better than the situation previously. The bespoke-per language model turns out to have fewer drawbacks than the bespoke-per-library-and-OS model. Note: fewer drawbacks, not none. I would not have predicted this a priori, for what it's worth, and I was very critical of and first one of these I became familiar with (rvm), but it turns out to work well in practice.

I still think cross-language efforts (like bazel and I'm sure there are others, maybe nix?) seem generally better, but I suspect there is some fairly good reason they are less widely used.

Increasing taxes is never an ideal solution. The money rarely makes it to your pet cause - and often ends up funding programs you (strongly) disagree with. Instead, maybe try to reduce the size of government, reduce regulatory overreach and disincentivize government waste so that taxes need not be so high in the first place and it becomes easier and less expensive to build more housing.

Could not disagree more. For entertainment purposes, I've installed neovim with `brew install neovim`. Opened a small project with `nvim ~/projects/whatever`, and am presented with a screen full of errors (https://imgur.com/D0ydDIG). Pressing enter brings me to a blank screen with even more errors.

I like both COC and CMP (native).

COC is way easier to set up and the default config is fine.

CMP is lighter and more configurable, and it works really nicely with luasnip (my snippet engine of choice).

Under the hood they both use the same LSPs, but COC pulls them down and sets them up for you.
Dunning and Kruger showed that students all thought they were in roughly the 70th percentile, regardless of where they actually ranked. That's it. The plots in the original paper make that point very clear.

I feel like effect systems like the ones in unison and koka (or haskell with extensible effects / freer libraries like polysemy or eff) get pretty close to that. I feel like there's a lot of effort needed to make the idea "mainstream" and to get a good implementation going though (I think a lot of implementations use delimited continuations, but I'm not sure so don't quote me on that. At least it's the design for haskell's new primops to make that kind of library better)
This works in Haskell because it is a purely functional language, and the IO monad is an intrusion into that to allow for useful computation. Rust is not purely functional, so there is no way to enforce something like this in the compiler. You could add an IO monad, but it would be easy for someone further down the chain of packages to ignore it and make a syscall.

Anything similar in rust would have to be enforced through code auditing tools, either forking the compiler, using some of its code as a basis or starting from scratch.
I see this as a huge mistake (quelle surprise, this is Oracle after all).
