I had a very similar feeling when I had to start using Google Docs for my job a few months ago; it would "autocomplete" my sentences. On the face of it this is a useful and helpful feature, and many of the suggestions were not bad at all. But many were also not what I would have written, exactly. Neither is necessarily better or worse: just different.

A lot of people write in their own way, often with little things, but these kind of "hey, here's a sentence for you" kind of takes away your own personal "voice".

I turned this feature off.
ok then, next
IIRC, Place & Route is a known NP complete problem. In this regard, autorouters (whether IC or PCB) can benefit from "better" heuristics -- i.e. it's an optimization problem where AI can help.
Oh and on emulators: Again - old titles are not relevant but for the smallest minority of noisy internet nerds. Whenever we released something in that direction, it got nowhere near the needed reaction from the market to justify its investment. It only appeases the noisy nerd minority.

Make no mistakes - many many people working at BigN belong to that minority, especially in the lower ranks. But management needs to make decisions that are profitable - otherwise, there wouldn't be enough runway to make bold bets like WiiU, Switch, Tomodachi Life, Splatoon etc.
There are already far too many distros (and DEs) out there. Working with the commons would be a far better approach.

Once you start getting into specific hardware optimizations you are basically throwing up your hands on the interoperable approach that is a strength of Linux. There is no reason why those changes can't be upstreamed.

Been working as a consultant and engineer on FDA regulated software for about 8 years now. I have seen strategies from startups to huge companies.

I have seen requirements captured in markdown files, spreadsheets, ticket management systems like Redmine, Pivotal, Jira, GitLab, Azure Devops, GitHub Issues, and home grown systems.

If I had to start a new medical device from scratch today, I would use Notion + https://github.com/innolitics/rdm to capture user needs, requirements, risks, and test cases. Let me know if there is interest and I can make some Notion templates public. I think the ability to easily edit relations without having to use IDs is nice. And the API makes it possible to dump it all to yaml, version control and generate documentation for e-signature when you need it. Add on top of that an easy place to author documentation, non-software engineer interoperability, discoverable SOPs, granular permissions, and I think you have a winning combination.

Make your Decision and learn to live with the Consequences, Good or Bad; That's it.

Sometimes you may get the lucky chance to rollback a decision and start over for a second try; those are the "recoverable" decisions where you learn valuable life lessons by living through consequences for a short while before escaping them.

True "life altering decisions" do not allow a "do over". You have to change yourself both mentally and physically to adapt and learn to live with the consequences. If things go bad, it can be very hard and may even break you but you have to deal with it.

The key is to identify whether a decision is going to be "life altering" or not. If the former, then take your time, talk to as many relevant knowledgeable people (not random!) as possible to understand the consequences well and then arrive at a decision.
Surely it depends on where you are in the US?

I don't think that is a valid comparison. Static typing doesn't reduce throughput. It's almost the opposite.
I'm on desktop and my machine is struggling to install(?!?) some IDE. So far i'm not sure what I'm (supposed to be) seeing, there doesn't appear to be any explanatory text.

No, this is a dangerous viewpoint to have and should never be followed.
If you over-analyze things, there's no such thing as "a table", also (it's all molecules in a quantum fog pattern").

But there absolutely is something that can be called plain text for all intents and purposes.
> rebranded on Google Maps to a name few had heard: the East Cut.

There was briefly some gentrified name for the area between Soma, Portrero Hill and Mission, around where the Muji was and the highway overpass still is.

I remember it rhyming with SomaSopa from that one episode of South Park, but even more ridiculous because it concatenated 3 words alluding to each of the 3 adjacent neighborhoods. Does anyone remember it?

EDIT: Huh, they've seen to have settled on 'Showplace Square' now. That's new.
> But if you actually look at the suggestions, aren’t they sometimes better in the sense of being more precise?

I didn't know the distinction until you pointed it out, and didn't know very well the range of meanings proprietor had until now. Which I suppose highlights an important problem with such suggestions: if they suggest replacing a term A with a more precise term B that does not signify what was intended to be conveyed by A, based on concerns that both author and audience do not care about, and the author blindly accepts the suggestion, then such suggestions are creating miscommunication.
> Separate the bits that stay the same, and inject the bits that change.

Basically, treat your build/deployment scripts like you would any other code. Strive to have a single source of truth for any fact that can change etc.

That seems obvious, but in my experience was at first counterintuitive for many people who otherwise had no trouble applying these principles in application code. A lot of modern CI/CD principles boil down to “it’s just code”.
As I said: I am not a juicy target. Yet I see other non-juicy targets deploy captchas like there would be no other way.

My issue with this is: Every public government website on earth is going to have this problem.

The obvious solution is that governments invest public money into solving the problem resulting in public code. Sure a way has to be found how governments can build and maintain digital infrastrucure, maybe on a state level, maybe on a multinational level, beyond just a one-off thing.
What is weird to me that this is a racist approach to society, racist as in believes that race is the way society is structured as opposed to for example a marxist class system and racist in its belief that fixing this should be done on a race by race basis

I guess for me these statistics would be easier to digest if they were centered around poverity: e.g. How many cars did your family own, size of childhood home or something of that sort

> Back in the day, every page of an online store was rendered server-side. One day, someone needed certain elements to call database views and rewrite the dom inside a little area when a user clicked a button. So smart people tried to create frameworks like React

I can't really get that idea though. PC version is the main drawing board to express as much idea openly as possible for the intial design and the mobile version is just a compromise of the idea into a squashed view.

Mobile first is just a technical excuse and not the actual flow people like to do.

I don't think I can make a convincing argument to change designers mind to start out from mobile design.
From working in a company providing neural network inference as a service, I can attest you, that we did this. We did it especially since we are scared people distill on our results. If the other service makes the same weird mistake, they distilled from us.

I've been trying it out since your comment, and I have to say it's not bad. I don't love the look of KDE-ecosystem apps, but I'm warming up to them more and more.
Ah sorry, I misunderstood you and was talking about France indeed.
Note that we are talking about a particular interview process which uses CP (Competitive Programming). This is common at FAG (Lets exclude Netflix since as I've heard they don't do it) and at companies that copycat the process. Of course, there are many other places that don't do it.
I’m sorry but I don’t get the point of this website. Is it just a 5min countdown or am I missing something ?

I think you may be misunderstanding the comment you're replying to; or at least, I understand it quite differently.

For example, would you consider it proper to ask an Irish person to change their accent to be more like the Queen's English? Probably not – their accent and particulars of their English variant are part of who you are as an Irish person (or Scottish, American, British, but also accents from non-native English speakers).

I don't think this influences "who you are" in the sense of "the way you think" in Sapir-Whorf-style, but it is part of who you are, and taking it away does change "who you are".

Similarly, the way I choose to write is part of who I am. I am, of course, always open to suggestions to improve my writing as such, but I don't really want to be "auto-corrected" and have no own (written) "voice" taken away.
Thank you for the reply, I was kindof expecting that this would play out as such. I am very excited for the future of browsers and web protocols, but some of them are so exclusive and heavy-handed by Google that I worry.

Google needs to continue their developer relations efforts. I think they want to be on the same team as "us", from a technology perspective. Perhaps if only for the sake of adoption.
I recall discussing focus follows mouse with a colleague on macOS years ago, did they really remove the feature?

Fingers crossed that the Asahi Linux project keeps advancing as good as they have.
Hmm, that seems like a really bad oversight on GitHub's part. How did no one think about this before taking such drastic action? I think it was a mistake, and a pretty major one at that.
The accounts posts were cited in a state legislature as evidence and they’ve been interviewed by media personalities with huge audiences. Not exactly the average stupid meme account.
That might be what prevents more developers from using it.
Oh all the lost arts from the past...

My preferred method was manipulating IAT table (Import Address Table) where the code injected into process is hooking CreateProcess and LoadLibrary (and similar) to further propagate injection into other processes/library spawned by current process(es) and using debug privileges to also inject into system processes (like login process on windows 2000, to survive logoff)

Anyway Microsoft Detours is the way to go, they actually modify the code of hooked function using trampolines, I don't think anything can be more efficient than that.
We do not downrank based on perf tests, but if we did, your bogus tu quoque would need us also to be Google-sized monopoly or market superpower pushing our own AMP analogue that assimilates such “better performing” content into our servers, the better to surveil, control, and monetize.

As we don’t propose any such AMP-analogue, and we don’t perf-rank, your selective “you might do it too!” response falls flat.
I am on my thirst company supplied laptop. Thinkpad for 2 years. MacBook Pro for the next 5 and another MacBook Pro now on its third year. The next one will probably be a M1 based MacBook pro - though this one is working fine and I dont feel like going in to work just to replace it
Your comment loses it's value when you're trying to poke all the holes.

> Storage is also plunging in cost, and additional technologies are already in commercial use (iron flow, for example.)

> HVDC transmission is spreading, with higher capacity, lower cost, and higher efficiency for moving electricity greater distances (in other words, it's less of a deal if it's really windy in one spot and not in another, and ideally-suited wind sites can be further from where electricity is needed.)

How do you transform DC up and down? By converting it to AC. Running it through a transformer and converting it back, HVDC isn't gonna take over the world, certain stretches might be HVDC where beneficial but not all over the world.

The difference with nuclear is that anyone can build and operate next-gen storage, so you're commercial right out the door. I could hook my UPS up to the grid and feed back, commercial success!

> Wind and solar are as distributable and scaleable as you want.

Not without storage, which is harder to scale than production of other kinds.

> You don't need to worry about geological stability with wind and solar.

I don't see the USP, there are plenty of geologically stable areas in most countries.

> Wind and solar don't require tens or hundreds of megawatts of cold-start / post-operation (cooling) power.

They have the added downside of only producing power when the weather guy says so.

> Wind/solar don't generate waste that is weaponizeable.

Good point, for now.

> You don't need a highly trained workforce to install, operate, repair, and decommission wind/solar.

No, you need a disposable workforce that can die from workforce accidents without anyone batting an eye.

Bill Gates is a good example of someone with a bit of time around the smartest people on earth asking for advice where he can make a difference, here's a TED talk where he explains that we'll need all solutions to come together rather than one single silver bullet: https://youtu.be/JaF-fq2Zn7I

Does it sound reasonable that we should use all good tech we have? To me it does, and it includes all energy sources in different amounts and situations.
Yes, that could be easier to rather develop it from scratch.
You are replying to a message that very explicitly didn't say "A bunch of server functionality". Specifically, it said:

> Custom authentication

You can most definitely authenticate requests based on signed tokens and the like, meaning you don't necessarily need to reach any other component in the system.

> personalize ads

Same here. You can most definitely pick different adds depending on some cookie value or such, no need to reach anywhere. Even if you want to track what ads you've served, that can be done _after_ the response is sent to the user, meaning the extra latency of going to your persistence layer isn't perceived by the user.

> localize content

Again, you can have your translations in your edge function (or some edge cache if that platform supports it) and apply them at the edge. Admittedly this sounds like the shakiest use-case.

> intercept and transform requests

You can implement redirections, security headers, etc. in this layer. No need to go to your persistence layer.

> perform split tests

Same idea here. You can have multiple versions of (cached) pages and serve one or the other depending on the user's cookies, ip (country?), some frequency, etc.

You may be doing all these things from your backend layer, which is arguably easier, but it doesn't mean that they can't be offloaded to the edge and have a positive impact.

I agree and I wonder if this is a problem that is Netflix's creation, or the movie/tv studies creation. Of course it's probably both.

But I just don't think the way culture is moving in the US is that compelling to the rest of the world (and for many in the US). And in that way both netflix and most TV shows are based on cultural values of california.

I'm not in the US and the way almost any US movie/show has to bring the race question into it is super annoying. And I don't even mean the character make up, like fine, I don't give a shit what race actors are, if they are great actors. But literally every story always has to go into race somehow, every film somehow has references to who's black and who's white. Frankly it's racist but reverse racist really, it's pretending to be culturally sensitive but in the end you are still making everything about race, i.e. racism.

I don't care. Stop it. I don't care about racism or about the colour of people. Leave me alone and show me a good story.

Streaming services aren't social networks with lots of user generated content, that probably matches to the country where people use it. At least it's much less that. You can't force people to like California culture if they don't.
It only just dropped, so no one has used it in anger yet. I've written a couple of small things in it today though.

It just seems like such a lovely little language, but prologs are. It is pretty damn great to be able to attach probabilities to things and prolog away.
Please don't ask for their own Linux distro. Upstreamimg their hardware drivers is enough. Their resources are better spent innovating at the hardware level. And upstream support for frame.work hardware means frame.work users can take advantage of all the innovation happening in the linux ecosystem because all distros would run on it.
The productivity boost I've gotten with Phoenix LiveView vs a typical front/backend split is simply unreal.

Seriously, if you haven't tried it, you're missing out.
One thing about the route I don’t get… why don’t they use the space between the roads on the 5? Isn’t that mostly accounted for by the government already? Especially if so much of the tracks is raised.

But the question was whether the videos are edited. Are they? I don't know the account and don't care for the content posted but this is a pretty important distinction.
As far as I can tell, that feedback goes into a black hole. I've sent many corrections there, not a single one has been adopted, including ones where entire streets didn't exist (i.e. they exist on Maps but have never existed IRL).

In the city I used to live, they had to put signs up at the entrance to a street, warning people to ignore Google Maps. It tried to route people the wrong way up a one-way street, and the government had failed to get Google to fix it.
Interestingly I couldn't read this tweet because apparently @pmarca has blocked me even though I've never interacted with him. I'm guessing I have been added to some shared blocklist because I expressed wrongthink somewhere. So much for @pmarca's belief in freedom of expression.
Recently I started to toy with a PHP framework that works like Blazor and has all the state on the server. It also has the virtual DOM on the server. This works great even without sockets or polling. All requests from the client to the server will have a virtual DOM diff as result.

Having the state only on the server is great.
I was referring more to the CWV thing mentioned in the footnote. It sounds like it doesn’t require AMP.
