And I'm saying. Sure some games/software goes for careful time budgeting.

Others don't. Because the floor for performance tolerance is low enough you don't need to bother most of the time.

After all premature optimization is the root of all evil.
>Maybe I'm an idiot and I've never run a survey but the sample size seems a bit low.

A random sample of 500 with proper balancing reduces the margin of error for a 95% confidence level to 4.5%(<http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project_...>) regardless of total population size(<http://www.surveysystem.com/sscalc.htm>).
It's actually a trick to let people pay for their own education instead of letting employers pay for education.

Yes, they absolutely will, but that's the strength of certain runtimes: green threads (i.e. HTTP request/response sessions in this case) cost almost nothing so you can hold onto 5-10 million of them on a VPS with 16-32 GB RAM, easily.

I haven't had to defend against extensive bot scraping operations -- only against simpler ones -- but I've utilized such a practice in my admittedly much more limited experience, and was actually successful. Not that the bots gave up but their authors realized they can't accelerate the process of scraping data so they dialed down their instances, likely to save money from their own hosting bills. Win-win.

Apologies, I don't mention to lecture you, just sharing a small piece of experience. Granted that's very specific to the backend tech but what the heck, maybe you'll find the tidbit valuable.
There's no way to specify every single application specific constraint directly in the database. Race conditions are not present when using locking reads (select ... for update, or DB specific shared locking selects) or serializable isolation level, which are the typical way of enforcing application level constraints.
Node.js v18 Released
You can import host functions and data to a WASM VM much like you would with, say, an embedded Python VM. The exact API depends on which VM implementation and host language you're using.

dlopen/dlsym support is still in the works (for example, see [0]). You can't call function pointers directly from WASM, naturally, but it is possible to wrap dlsym so you can use it from a WASM program. There just isn't a standardized/pre-made way to do it yet, so you'd have to write the glue code yourself.

[edit] The Emscripten WASM toolchain seems to support dlopen/dlsym, see: https://github.com/WebAssembly/tool-conventions/blob/main/Dy...

[0] https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/issues/1995
This release is aimed more at the former. We're happy to connect with and support anyone who wants to make a serious attempt at a drop-in replacement board though, and would use that exercise to create more documentation to share publicly.
If Google is broken up, the decisions of the new smaller companies will still be political.

So what would have been achieved?
There were also literally half as many people back then.
>I am from different country and most of the words are gender neutral which in US pretty big deal like (landlord, guys - which is gender neutral in our country).

Ask your hetrosexual male friends how many guys they have slept with.
I would imagine response will illustrate "guys" is less gender neutral than might think.
Putin sanctioning himself, literal 5D chess going on here.
an unfortunate reality indeed. and the worst part is, that the ones who hold the license are the ones really missing out. And us peons are banished back to launchbox land, to so many games that even just the act of nostalgically scrolling through them is enough entertainment for an evening
> This is why it is a hint that asks for an action.

If you want or need a PC word checker to not piss off liberals thats's fine (they are the ones getting offended on other's behalf, not the people they are "fighting" for), but most people don't.

I see no reason to have this enabled by default.

EDIT: @Karawebnetwork, I don't see any Inuits proposing this, just liberals who love censorship, love getting offended on other's behalf and redefining words to make themselves feel like they've done something.
Rust YJIT is complete – it passes all the CRuby tests
Alan Wu: In December 2021, we opened an issue to solicit feedback regarding the porting of the YJIT codebase from C99 to Rust. There were some reservations, but this project was given the go ahead by Ruby core developers and Matz. Since then, we have successfully completed the port of YJIT to Rust. We are opening this pull request to upstream Rust YJIT, effectively replacing the C version of YJIT.

The new Rust version of YJIT has reached parity with the C version, in that it passes all the CRuby tests, is able to run all of the YJIT benchmarks, and performs similarly to the C version (because it works the same way and largely generates the same machine code). We've even incorporated some design improvements, such as a more fine-grained constant invalidation mechanism which we expect will make a big difference in Ruby on Rails applications.
I would guess it comes down to context. The NAACP still exists.
It's a big assumption to suppose that the 'failing up' guy was only able to do so 'because he was white'.

'Buddies with the execs' - that's easy to believe. But 'because white' ... much harder to convince me there.

The amount of easy and assumptive bigotry going on around these things makes me dismissive of all of it unless there's evidence otherwise.

Paradoxically, you may have highlighted one of the issues with DEI policies, in that people may be encouraged to perceive their lack of progress up the ladder as somehow 'racially oriented'.

This is pernicious, because it's a pyramid and it gets narrow quickly.

Everyone has a beef, everyone has a 'reason' for why they aren't at some stage higher than they are, it's the perennial social issue of middle management.

So that makes it hard to sort out the legitimate cases where DEI would be relevant, to just the standard 'beefs' that lie just below surface level in every office environment.

At about the Director level and above, it's very political and 'talent' is not only just a small part of the equation, but it also means something else at that level.

DEI is a really complicated subject, and I suggest 1990's progressives, with a focus on 'treating people equally' or 'equal opportunity' (ideals which are dismissed these days as actually being systematically racist) ... should be the rule.

A dude 'failing up' if that's the case, is just unfair all around and that's it.

It's 10x more complicated if you step into another cultural context i.e. outside of the US.

To the point where I think Google should actively trying to avoid having too much of a posture on anything really. Aside from 'genocide' etc.
Buying an obsolete laptop now and upgrading it in a few months is not a good use of money though.

Thanks! And I definitely didn't build it with acquisition in mind (or have any experience navigating those waters), but I suppose stranger things have happened haha. My intuition is that big firms/institutions would probably be looking for something with more crazy growth metrics and stickiness though, don't you think?
> why couldn't Mozilla create a "contributor community group" something like Java has?

Mozilla regularly accepts code from unpaid community members and has since its inception.
Totally agree! Yet I feel like netflix is continuously gutting its recommendation ability.

-First the intersectional genres became harder to find, or create.

-Then the reviews were wiped.

-Then you see the same content you actually watched as recommended and often
Historically, porting console games from one to the next isn't always the easiest task since the hardware is so specialized

Yeah, it's tough when the consoles have roughly comparable performance. When they don't it's less so. Amateurs without access to source code got the Dreamcast to run Playstation games better than the Playstation. They got the PSP the run N64 games. They've gotten the Switch to run everything from the Dreamcast down. It's less work than that for internal developers; Nintendo basically made an N64 emulator for the Gamecube as a lark just to offer a free pre-order disc with Wind Waker.
I think this is a natural and fine extension of the Netlify platform. They've had various "serverless functions" for a few years that's mostly been out of the way if you don't need it.

It fits within their goal of a 'heroku for frontend websites', for easily deploying sites.
Subreddit removes heated discussion about topics irrelevant to the subreddit. How is this news?
Anime is the only reason I haven't cancelled Netflix yet. They added several Gundam shows out of nowhere. then they added Cowboy Bebop. Several other notable titles in there as well. The collection is still incomplete though, and as great as these shows are I'm getting tired of rewatching them.

It's not their IP so one has to wonder how long it's gonna take before we see the obnoxious "last day to watch on Netflix" message.
Seems neat.

However, the examples I saw hit the uncanny valley for me. The changes are realistic but there is just something off about them, that bothers my brain.
>By your own admission, you use words with the intent to give offense as a form of humor.

I think you're talking about me (nobody9999) not thegrimmest.[3]

With that in mind, what I said was "I'd add that I have a big mouth and am often deliberately inappropriate in (mostly successful) attempts at humor. But not in contexts where such things are socially unacceptable"

Let's "unpack" that. I am "deliberately[0] inappropriate[1]" in this sense:

deliberate (adj.)
2. characterized by awareness of the consequences

inappropriate (adj.)
not appropriate

which is useless without defining the term that's being negated[2]:

appropriate (adj.)
especially suitable

There is certainly intent, but inappropriate doesn't mean "giving offense," it means not especially suitable.

As you've implied and I agree, words have meanings. But you're ascribing a meaning to a word that isn't accurate.

Why is that? Are you unfamiliar with the word? Or are you simply making an assumption as to my motives and/or thought processes?

In either case, I'd ask that you reassess your statement.

Just want to chime in with some appreciation. Phenomenal work your doing for tech with ethics.
I do think most people don't care about 120$ a year per household, yes.

The people who do care - they will pirate anyway. You don't even have to pirate - aren't there just websites that play pirated content like it's youtube?

Also, isn't youtube just free? Not having Netflix is not like not having a TV, it's more like not having the fancy cable channels package.
Should they then abandon that ideal and ensure there is no software that provides those benefits?

In a world without copyleft, I don't think many of the ecosystems we have today would exist. The alternatives are that this software doesn't exist (because there's no economic incentive to build a business to sell it), or it's permissively licensed and some random other builds a business off it and with the extra resources outcompetes the original.

I'd take a world with some free software over none, and I don't see any way to loosen the restrictions to make it more easily broadly commercially viable without causing its own extinction.
North Carolina won't have cheap homes for long. Housing prices are already skyrocketing, and several big tech companies are building new offices in the Triangle. NC is going to befall the same fate as Austin and every other once-affordable area that tech moved into.
This is great, I took some time to get a fairly in depth plan together. There are two things that stuck out:

1. You've got RSU's (at first it wasn't clear to me where this would be addressed, but I think it made sense once I came across it) but I don't see a dedicated strategy for dealing with ISO/NSO's. That'd be helpful for the tech community especially.

2. I spent the 10-15 minutes working on a plan knowing that I'd need to upgrade to pro for every feature, but it seems like I need to upgrade to save my plan. I ended up not paying because I don't have enough time right now to fully evaluate this, but I might look back later. It would have been great if I could have entered my email and saved my plan without paying, and then had to later pay to access it. This gives you the benefit of getting my email address, and then sending me an email to access my plan so that I've got a second touchpoint to your product when I check my email in the future.

Looking forward to using this more in depth in the future!
Deck Review with Exscientia
Critics love shows/movies with The Message. It's more important than good writing to them.
The video store had a recommendation "engine". It had people that worked there! Often times they had a employee's pick section. You could talk to an employee and they could help you out. After getting to know you, they would reserve new movies for you! I know it's crazy to think that a human being can compete with an algorithm. This was the video store experience you have missed and were unaware of. Thinking that "your way" is the only way is always wrong.
Remember Trump? And Germany getting half its gas from Russia?
I've played with tech like this for over a year now. You won't find the bowl in the source images. It doesn't evolve the noise into a source image. It slowly nudges the noise into feeling more and more bowl-like. Do that enough, and you get something that feels quite a bit like a bowl.

Put it this way: The model file is absurdly smaller than the half billion source images files. If it actually contained the source images, it would be the greatest feat of image compression ever. Instead it only contains the impression left over by the images. A lot closer to a memory than a jpg.
If you don't like what the die says, ignore it.
> There are a host of "woke" modern themes that find their way into western media in general

I dont see how stuff like this is complained about though, especially since most shows dont actually have more than token representation anyway. Whats the actual complaint here? That the average cast of a show is slightly different now than it was 10 years ago? People complain about "woke" themes but I hardly see concrete examples of them, and explanations as to whats wrong or what should be done differently.

And fwiw I think using Star Trek as an example is funny* since the show has historically been based on diverse groups of people.
What's the core ordering mechanism behind the serializability for arbitrary distributed transactions? This would be something like TrueTime in Spanner or FoundationDB's GRV/commit proxies.
Toronto has a different issue - the purchase price for a home has been rising far faster than rental rates. This is a bubble.
Actually, it is only going to be enabled for "work mode". It is not being turned on for everyone by default. Certainly not if you are talking about the consumer version of Google Docs, and not even all paid versions of Google Workspace. So not only does your employer have to pay for the feature, they may have to pay extra if they are currently purchasing one of the cheaper tiers of service.

Specifically, it is only going to be enabled for these editions of Google Workspace: Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus, Education Plus

It is *not* going to be enabled for: Google Workspace Essentials, Business Starter, Enterprise Essentials, Education Fundamentals, Teaching and Learning Upgrade, Education Standard, Frontline, Nonprofits, G Suite Basic and Business customers

Even for those business accounts where this feature is enabled, the Workspace Admin for that domain can turn these stylistic suggestions on or off. (And you can turn off the inclusive language suggestions, while leaving other suggestions, such as for "concise language" on or off. There is a certain amount of granularity as to which classes of stylistic suggestions are enabled or not.) And users can also turn it on or off for themselves, regardless of what your Workspace Admin has decided about the defaults.

So sorry for bursting your righteous outrage bubble, but the intent is to enable this for those companies that might want to nudge their employees towards using more professional style of language. And if you don't like that, you can always leave and go work for some other employer....
This isn't real "server side rendering". This is just generating simpler HTML. Real rendering on the server would mean sending a canvas or an image or video, like "cloud gaming".

All this complexity seldom translates into sites that do much. There are real "applications in the browser" that let the user do something, but those are rare, and most are toys. Most of them could have been written in Flash, anyway.
It's also not a good use of the earths resources, which i think is part of the ethos of framework.
>silly imaginary culture-war ones

You mean like what Google imagines they're accomplishing with this sort of thing..?
I don't see this as too baffling- in their logic, if you have two alternatives (landlord and landlady, say) and landlord gets picked, it's evidence of patriarchy (because it defaulted to male). They would prefer "landperson", or perhaps "rent seeking capitalist"
Probably bad but I gotta get myself "pumped" to work. Get in the zone. But if I really need to focus I'll either loop some song or just not listen to music. The stuff I work on is easier eg. web dev so most of the time I'm just jamming/working. Sleep deprivation helps me get into my work too. Otherwise I feel too relaxed/lethargic/not interested.
I was actually trying to find a word other than unjust. Considered unduly but it also didn’t seem correct. My vocabulary is sadly lacking lately due to some intense brain fog.

It’s just strange that we’ve been seeing much worse from prominent RU propaganda accounts & even RU gov officials & embassy workers with zero repercussions. The Ukr account definitely had issues but it was otherwise decent/reliable information & aggregation.

Honestly, aside from maybe blatantly incorrect & misleading propaganda by RU officials & such that are inciting extreme hatred, I think everything regarding this war should stay up. Disclaimers & sensitivity spoiler alerts if Twitter so pleases, but not entirely suspending an account to the point past posts can’t even be viewed.
One problem though (and I've interviewed at FAANG companies and similar process) is now they really expect you to memorize at lot because other developers are doing it as well. On one of my questions

I was supposed to quickly recreate the quick-select algorithm from memory in 10 min. Stuff like this I learned a long time ago but have no need to memorize how to code it by hand quickly.

Brushing up for the weekend is not enough if you haven't touched the stuff in 20 years. When I've spoken with recruiters they recommend studying many hours per day ever day for at least 2 months.

No doctor, lawyer, real estate agent (and many other much higher paying professions) would ever tolerate this type of interview.

Personally the interview prep is so boarding I can't wait for the day to be done with this field (not actually software development) just having to do it for work.
Frontend folks have an excuse. They cannot avoid using JavaScript, since they're limited by what browsers support.

Backend developers chose to write mountains of yaml
When you select the different models of mainboard the order of the "Included", "Specs", and "Additional Information" options switch places. Just a minor UI thing.
This checks out. Nintendo really only seems interested in using their back catalogue to create a value offering when they are struggling to sell hardware. Hence why a lot of first party GameCube and Wii U games got reissued in $20 "Players Choice" SKUs late in their respective console's lifecyles while they Wii and Switch launch titles have remained full price.
GP should have said liberal bubble. That encompasses both Twitter and the left's SC pick.

Only one group is having trouble defining women.
Personally I dont feel comfortable with any service hosted in the US or other Five Eyes country. I have nothing to hide but the spying and intrusion is nearly as bad as China or Russia.
In the USA, guys can be used in a gender neutral context, but it also can be used to refer to males only.

"Ok guys, lets go to lunch" is probably gender neutral.

"Guys line up on the right, gals on the left" is not.

"Do you sleep with guys?" is not gender neutral.
I don't really understand how your anecdote applies to what I said. What you described is nepotism, I don't really think that the guy was not promoted because he was black, and without any evidence of that being the case, I think it's kind of a stretch to assume. Can you provide any examples of why it was about his race? Otherwise, that is just nepotism, like you said.
This one is still widely argued; many women say they don't care and are happy to be included in the guys, and others consider it a real terrible thing to say. I have to conclude that it's unlikely that stopping using guys as a gender-neutral address will truly move the needle in equality.
I've yet to read a definition of "woman" that isn't tautological or doesn't rely on stereotypes.
The problem is not 'innapropriate words'.

Because 'swear words' are probably not something we want in our G Docs.

But to tell users that 'landlord' is 'inappropriate' is way crossing the line.

If Google were any bigger it would be Orwellian. There are not too many options outside G for these kinds of things.

When populists people get mad on Twitter about 'wokeness', it's exactly this kind of stuff that will give them a kernel of legitimacy.

They should really just stay out of it.
