The most mind-blowing thing about the M1 is that I've never seen the beachball cursor for the entire system ever since I got mine. Used to be a daily occurrence on my 2012 macbook pro and drove me nuts at times. This one is ridiculously responsive.

On and I've only managed to get the fans to audibly spin after several minutes of compiling an Android app with a huge native library on an x86 NDK for 4 architectures.
But we seem to have no issue, with Suboxone. That is, quite literally, replacing one addiction with another.

Opiate/oid withdrawal is pretty awful. You feel like you will die, but that seldom happens (unless you have other issues).

Withdrawal from alcohol, on the other hand, is, quite frequently, deadly (that's why medical alcohol detox is recommended).

Benzo withdrawals make alcohol withdrawals look like a case of the sniffles.

I think that we are best off, with no addiction to anything, but I also know that many folks can't seem to achieve that.

But deliberately addicting to benzos is crazy. They do use drugs like Librium to medically detox folks from alcohol, but that is quite short term, and is meant to keep you from dying.
I'm taking bets on how long before the next generation is completely broken as well. It is only a matter of time, and the timeline is likely short.
I don't mind using async/await when I use promises, but in my experience people who never worked with bare promises have a hard time really understanding async/await and will eventually need help from people who did for harder problems. Just like people who never used callback flows often struggle to understand well asynchronicity and mess up with promises.
Wordpress itself is reasonably secure nowadays. It is the plugins which are a mess.
> Millions in the West spoke out with horror and revulsion at the death tolls in the 9/11 Wars

Those were of course much higher. I’m talking about the annual death tolls after 2010 when everyone in the west thought that the war was long over.
I would also mod your comment insightful ;) Egocentric individualism makes people forget that everyone, absolutely everyone, is indebted to people past and present, from his current fellow co-inhabitants of earth to the past generations all over the world that bequeathed him the world and the culture he inherited.
Cool project, nice work. FWIW, Inkscape has an extension called "Gcodetools" which can turn SVG paths into Gcode for you. But I totally get the desire to do it for yourself.
Pretty much. Naltrexone is a competitive antagonist against the opioid reception (u being the important one).

They would give the standard amount of opioid (say fentanyl) and if they don't see the desired response they'll up it. Eventually you can "out compete" the naltrexone for the opioid receptor and get an effect.

If they do give 2-3x the dose, they'll be sure to monitor closely after to make sure everything goes well.
I see Tesla cars all over the place. I saw rockets take off from SpaceX.

What charade?

Also he often publicly thanks, congratulates and credits the Tesla and SpaceX teams. Here's a sample:

https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3A%40elonmusk%20%22team%22...

As you can see yourself, he's saying "great job team!" not "great job me!".

I just don't get all these olympic level contortions around denying the achievements of an immigrant who made good on the American dream, and has done more for climate change than literally anyone. This is to be celebrated and embraced!
Yes, for JVM, it's not that trivial and non-blocking code is definitely not mandatory. Our app backend has been written in a blocking fashion and we are gradually transitioning to non-blocking code.

Your question is very valid as the JVM can handle even thousands of threads (given the host OS can).

Having less threads does keep memory usage lower (as each thread in the thread pool has its own stack space). Also, it's more scalable because if using blocking code execution, you'll need to have one thread per concurrent request served. Lastly, thread starvation can become a problem with blocking code in case of delayed I/O or other failures. If that happens, the server becomes unable to serve new requests.

Most modern languages cannot be compiled anymore with their original pre-dogfood compiler, but we have the sources of the older versions so you can bootstrap them in a sequence.
Yeah, I think that's the silicon valley effect. I often feel at odds with the majority viewpoint here when things like the free market, welfare, or regulations are being discussed.

Though in this case, I think the technological perspective makes the inconsistency you're speaking off disappear. It's arguable but I don't think free speech, left to its own devices, leads to these mass mobs as often as we're seeing it on Twitter & Cie. Our culture is being shaped by recommendation algorithms, that needs to be addressed along with workers' rights.

You may want to check out Zig's async/await. Seems to be closer to what you're suggesting. It's one of the few implementations where functions don't have an "async"/"no-async" color, and where you use the same IO functions regardless of whether you want to use them asynchronously or synchronously (if I remember correctly).
The startup builds a terminal for MacOS, written in Rust.

They are planning Windows and Linux ports, and want to open-source the client-side in the future (license unspecified) while the server-side (the terminal has connected features) remains closed-source.

I'm glad this is getting some reporting.
Flashcard software like Mnemosyne. Seriously. I use it to keep reminding me of keyboard shortcuts until I've ingrained them in my workflow.
So basically no way to do the same with await, other than of course declaring a weak local var.
History is not on your side in this. It happened. No bombing, no invasion, no regime change. Just some sanctions which are still in place today.
There are some orgs that a degree is required and your friend is right, though most I find are more experience focused. In my experience, the orgs that work like your friend described are generally not where you want to work anyway as they are using bureaucracy and credentialing not merit (like anything though, exceptions exist).

A degree is what helps you early in your career to get a foot in a door, or a slightly higher starting pay or position etc. In the end, it is your ability to sell yourself, deliver and most importantly be personable and work with people of all types.

For the most part in tech, whether I am hiring an exec or engineer the only time I actually will look at/for a degree (or certificate) is if I am hiring someone with no professional experience or filling a highly specialized role. Frankly, too much time spent in university is a negative indicator to me, unless you were specializing in a research heavy area or needed it for a professional certification like a medical doctor, attorney etc.

FWIW, some degrees and certain schools on a resume are a negative indicator to me as well. This is because over the past 20+ years I've seen the type of people they produce on average. That isn't to say I won't interview a candidate (or hire them) if they seem like they are a potential fit, just that I'll dig pretty deep to see if the candidate avoided the issues I am aware of. More traditionally "top rated" schools/programs are on this list than basic public state universities.

At any good company, it always boils down to the person in my experience, not a piece of paper. And it should be noted, C level and other exec's usually get hired through referrals, their own network or headhunters and not generally through blind resume submittal. So it is generally a much more personalized process than applying as a basic engineer etc.
The "Kotlin of C", what a beautiful metaphor!
When I joined in 2006, someone had replaced it with 21 regular expressions.
Not OP and not agreeing with this, but I believe the purported difference is that some beliefs are granted the status of identity, which makes them in some sense sacrosanct.

The (faulty) chain of logic goes:

1. You are challenging my belief.

2. This belief is about part of who I am.

3. Therefore you are challenging me and/or my existence.
35k a year per prisoner??? Had the US invested wisely such amount on their youths, they would have got more educated people, thus decreasing the chances of becoming criminals.

What do I know anyway.
Most error monitoring services want this as they map errors to commits.
There is already a blacklisting/revocation system for leaked SGX keys -- which failed completely when it was put to the test, after researchers tried publishing some keys they extracted on Twitter. However, it depends on Intel becoming aware of a leaked key, which makes perfect sense for the original DRM use-case and makes no sense in the cloud/server/hosting/etc. use-case.
What do you mean "throw $2k in SPY"? Why not throw $200 per year ($18/month) for 10 years? My brother is single and has accumulated a significant nest egg and has never made more than $50,000 his entire life.

And a married couple making $90,000 per year could invest $1,000 per year in SPY, then when the wife quits to stay home with the kids, the family could pull out $20-30k per year in long-term capital gains completely tax free.

Have you tried reaching out to people on your network who worked with you in the past? I think this together with your experience is a very strong asset. Reach out, tell them you want work, you might be pleasantly surprised that your age isn't much of an obstacle.
Vertical integration; not a new concept historically speaking but perhaps new in the tech/bay area bubble.
Do you have any idea what the T in TSMC stands for? None of the important fabs (or at least none getting the latest tech) are in China and you are not going to see another TSMC fab built in China. Ever.
Are you saying that AA promotes discredited scientific claims because of a belief among their members that such claims have utility in helping their members quit drinking and stay off alcohol? Why even have the quasi-scientific patina then? Just go back to purely religious-era thinking, things like 'You'll burn in hell for all eternity if you don't get off the booze right now".

The problem with groups like AA is that they seem incapable of revising their dogmatic beliefs when presented with new evidence. What if opiate addiction and alcohol addiction are not 'lifelong diseases' at all, but simply treatable conditions? Would AA revise its claims if presented with such evidence?
The most interesting part of this to me was the list of top mods by popularity. But when I looked a lot of them seemed for much older Minecraft versions or for old versions of the mods. For instance "Pam's HarvestCraft" is mentioned but that's been deprecated in favor of a HarvestCraft 2.

Is that just a quirk of how the mod names are reported and folks are really running newer stuff? Are older modded servers still popular? Are the servers themselves mostly old and no longer used?
I’m assuming they have been.

This email was a one off that outside this code exists nowhere else.
>this current social media centered around outrage, fear, anger and rage

Whenever I see takes like this, I wonder what platforms people are using and how they're using them.

I interact with my family on facebook, read some stuff on subreddits I like, and don't use twitter; I don't really experience any of the above. My girlfriend, by contrast, will come to me visibly shaken once a week regarding some drama happening on instagram, which baffles me.

Am I the one that's out of touch here? Or is this 'FUDmedia' a bit overblown and the result of spending time looking for the hot goss? I'm probably the one that's out of touch, but oh boy is it nice.
Well. I think x86 is dead and Intel just doesn't know it yet. Might take a decade for them to realise.

Intel as a business? Maybe as a design house they will struggle to catch up. As a foundry? If they do not catch up with the amount of government support they are going to be able to claim, then there is something very wrong.

Most chip designers have at least one way forward, which is to produce chips that run WASM well on Linux or a BSD. This is actually a good time for minority architectures, because a truly portable architecture is on the horizon, and everyone has an incentive to see it work; that incentive being not losing all their business to Apple, Samsung and a few Chinese firms whose names we don't recognise yet!
I've followed you awesome work on Linux performance tuning over the years. All the best for whatever you're doing next and I hope it ends up in another book for us mere mortals to read :-).
Alternatively, people who can't afford to have babies could stop having them and then we could all have a better quality of life.
I think this debate has historically suffered from being conducted purely philosophically. Hediegger, Dreyfus (Ponty et al.) needed a bit more science and mathematics to see through the show.

All we need to do to make the Heideggerian point is ask the RL researcher what his reward function is. Have him right it out, and note, that its a disjunction of properties which already carve the environment of the robot.

In otherwords, the failure of AI is far less of a mystery than philosophy alone seems to imply. Its a failure in a very very simple sense if one just asks the right technical questions.

For RL, all we need ask is, "what will the machine do when it encounters an object outside of your pregiven disjunction?"

The answer, of course, is fall over.

Hardly what we fear when the wolf learns our movements, or what we love when a person shows us how to play a piano for the first time. The very thing we want, and we are told we have, isnt there... and it's not "not there" philosophically... its not there in the actual journal paper.
Ate 3½ bananas per day on average and was quite hungry for variety afterwards :p

Following the experiment I've adopted to filling nondescript feelings of "eat something" with banana. It's decently nutritious filler and convenient snack, but doesn't make for a meal foundation.
You seem very excited about the second. Have you talked to your friends and family? Portugal is a nice, somewhat slow place to live. Do what makes you happy. Best of luck.
> [One super cool thing the man page mentions is that if you create a link named z<programname> eg. zsed, with zrun as the link target, then when you run `zsed XYZ`, zrun will read its own program name, and execute 'zrun sed XYZ' automatically.]

Ad hom is pushed by the media because “small minds talk about people,” and that sells ads/clicks. Another example beyond personal fanboyism is the vilification of a person which surpasses rationality. Or the vilification of other groups of people. In all of these you will see fundamental attribution error, ignoring the situational factors and placing all perceived agency on the individual, like most all of our media were doing from 2016-2020. The reality is, few humans are all that important in and of themselves, and those that are often have become so as the result of external factors like the quality of the people that surround them, or “luck.”
Carpet bombing of the scale of WW2 is not on the table for any modern war. The bombing campaigns of both Allies and Axis included thousands of bombers, flying thousands of sorties per month. Just London during the Blitz was hit by 18000 tons of bombs. Nobody in the world has that number of planes, crew or even bombs anymore. And any kind of large-scale bombing in a contested airspace is a very bad idea.

Same with artillery. Russian Grads are powerful, but they have range of less than 50 kilometers. Once they get in place, they can fire (IIRC) three times before needing new reload which is literally a truckload. Meaning you need surviving Grad 50 km form something you want to destroy and a secure supply line, otherwise that reload will never arrive. Non-rocket artillery has generally more compact ammo but shorter range, so it has similar problems.

That puts me in opinion of "Russians couldn't destroy everything even if they wanted to". That of course doesn't necessarily means they want to - but it also should refute the argument "they could destroy everything but didn't, so they are nice people" I've seen a few times.

EDIT: TL;DR: "why didn't Russians carpet bomb Ukraine?" "with what?"

EDIT2: I looked it up, and Russia has about 25 of their Tu-160 strategic bombers. Just the one S-300 air defense system that Slovakia gave Ukraine had 46 missiles on it - in addition to possibly hundreds that Ukraine already had. Carpet bombing is completely unrealistic at this point.
You do you.

I can't see how your approach can scale to hire tens or maybe hundreds of engineers.

Sounds like something that may somewhat work for you when you're the only one doing the hiring for your small team of buddies at a startup somewhere.

You're not even trying to tackle things like hiring for multiple roles, interview fairness, subconscious bias, technical diversity, feedback, or making the interview process accessible to a larger group of people that don't fit your cookie-cutter from the get go.

On a different note - I really hate the tone of your post. You come off as an arrogant person who's full of it and "has it all figured out". I'd easily pass on you just by reading these posts.
I for one am tired of the people who think censorship is a big problem in the US.

It reminds me of somebody who said she wanted to be a film director, got a decent camcorder and editing rig, but always had excuses why she wasn’t performing. My friends and I helped her film a music festival for instance and she had a whole year to edit it to make a disc to sell at the next year’s festival and she put it off and was still duplicating the discs when the next year’s festival was ongoing so we sold very few and didn’t have her leadership for doing shoots.

Her work inhibition had something to do with a fantasy that she had some idea inside of her that was so dangerous that she’d be killed if she tried to express it. Well she wound up nearly killing herself by getting addicted to heroin, thank God she got clean and is still with us.

I think today there are people who have very similar feelings. They think what they have to say is important, dangerous or whatever but really it just crap like ‘You should take dog pills to cure COVID-19’ or ‘I want to paint a Z on my car to show I am a free thinker’

There are some serious delusions of grandeur going on.

These sorts of folk are mad that somebody got the ads turned off on their pro-Russia YouTube channel and never stop to think that in Russia you really could be arrested, poisoned, killed for a ‘crime’ like calling a war for war or running for public office.
Many aspects of resumes are easy to cheat.

List an undergrad at a more prestigious university while your graduate degree is accurate. There’s a high chance outside of government few will verify. Hell, lie about it all. I know for a fact my last big tech employer never verified education.

My point is finding edge cases where a person with a certain set of antisocial traits will abuse the system doesn’t mean there isn’t value in it. The majority of people won’t take the risk to their professional reputation and will be honest.
> makes many C++ features unusable.

Few. Because:

1. There are independent libraries implementing facilities from the STL for embedded settings.

2. The ones without independent implementations are very often ones you shouldn't be using in the first place, because they're slow in general or for your specific testcase (e.g. std::unordered_map come to mind - abstractly, very useful structures; but the STL interface+implementation is junk, performance-wise).

3. You have EASTL if you _really_ need it.

4. The STL is mostly data-format-neutral in the sense of not supporting any data format itself :-P
First time I’m really hearing about Brendan Gregg’s work. Not that I’m someone who should know, but I think this puts eBPF on my future studies list. Plus Australia sounds very cool. Currently working towards RHCE certification myself after a long time of swearing I don’t need it. (I want a new, more advanced job so I need it.)

I am so grateful somebody’s using FreeBSD in 2022 in production. I do wonder whether there’s anything that could get it more use. Maybe a certification and backing company like red hat does for Linux. Or something more harebrained like a smartphone app geared towards systems management for the upcoming generation. I’ve heard they’re generally less interested in this stuff.

I say this because it’s awesome to see Netflix having people so deep in the tech stack. But somehow still feels a little fragile.
It’s alright but things are still flaky given they are smaller and newer. It hung on spinning up a postgres instance. Builds are slower as well.
It's so good that Tesla sued people for posting videos where it fails miserably. Really screams "confidence", doesn't it?
Well... you are eliding the one, rather decisive way TSMC could indeed end up in Chinese hands.

We just have to hope that the Ukraine conflict has convinced China not to try to pull it off. We certainly would not be able to find economic sanctions that could possibly work if they did.
Is there a story behind those cricket stumps? ^_^
> Much faster than gathering a bunch of drunk member of Commons together and letting them boo each other while some chap screams "orduh". ;P

I know this is tongue-in-cheek, but it's worth noting that the Parliament has almost nothing to do with appointing a Prime Minister. In practice (in Australia) the majority party meets, picks a new leader, and then sends them to be appointed as PM by the Governor General. That's all that's needed.
I love Launch School. As you mention, it's definitely not a 'bootcamp' as people normally think of one.

You're not locked into an $XXXXX program - it's a straight $200/mo (which can be paused/restarted any time; no contract) for as long as it takes you.

The focus is on truly learning concepts. Once you're out of the Prep course, you have to pass written and oral assessments to move on to the next part of the program.

Take a look at their intro material (free):

That said, I've been start/stopping for the past couple of years and can't speak highly enough about it. I'm hoping life has settled down enough for me to start back in a month or so (and finally complete the core curriculum!)
a) Ukraine situation has shown that a clean, Hong Kong style takeover of Taiwan is increasingly unlikely. Europe has irrevocably changed and is far more hawkish and willing to join the US in economic coercion which China will struggle to defend against. And AUKUS, Quad, AU-JP-UK-US etc are solidifying and unifying opposition in ways never even imagined a few years ago.

b) Intel spun up their Foundry Services division specifically to manufacture chips for Apple, Amazon, Microsoft etc.
And by unacceptable you mean that you returned the Samsung and purchased another TV. Right? That's what unacceptable means.
Supposing it really was that simple, 5% would still comprise a large number of tweets.

Not saying this is the case here but highly likely.
