Interesting ! If I read your answer correctly, there was a time when German Army had more independent thinking than US Army. Is it common knowledge in military circles ? Did you always knew it or was there a time or a reason your worldview changed on that topic ?
I am asking to compare with my "epiphany" experience.
Exactly. I've worked in manufacturing automation long enough to know that the equipment needed to generate the huge variety of food even a mediocre cook can prepare would fill multiple kitchens. Automation equipment that's safe and reliable tends to be very big in relation to the items it operates on.
I've been using twin.macro on a side-project of mine, and have really enjoyed it: https://github.com/ben-rogerson/twin.macro

I especially like how easy it is to fall back onto ordinary Styled Components if I'm trying to implement things more specific than what tailwind can handle.

Here's a sample of what I've implemented with twin.macro: https://grueplan.com
Ditto - mines the same. Basically, no working for competitors.
Poll: Are you going to leave Twitter after Musk's acquisition?
Depends on what changes are implemented (explain in comments)
I wasn't on Twitter before, no intention to join
I wasn't on Twitter before, thinking about joining now
If you have this crazy guy in town who keeps buying dozens of raw chickens and stuffing them into trash cans in the town square on the hottest summer days… and you are the one store in town selling raw chickens… you probably just ban the crazy guy, right?

He can run for office. He can win office. But just no more chicken stuff please. It really upsets the community. It’s your chicken store and you can ban anyone you like, especially the weird chicken trash can guy.
We are putting too much into the word "management"

- supervision (did you turn up on time, are you capable of doing the basic functions needed)

- coaching (this team needs someone to do X, but I have two Ys. One goes or one changes)

- administration (budgets, projects, scheduling etc). Certainly the part most at threat from software - looking at you Project Manahers

- strategic decision making (yeah that's the part everyone wants to do because it's the big bucks with years before anyone can judge you. It is also oddly under threat - not from software but from voting - my guess is most strategy is going to be voted for in twenty years. don't like the strategy - binding vote at the AGM for new Board. would save Elon the effort of buying twitter)

All four of these (and I am sure MBA text books have better selections) are wildly different, at different levels of an org and need different skill sets and people. just thinking we could ever ask one person to get on with it all is crazy.
In the United States, corporations have 1st amendment protections. The Supreme Court codified this in CITIZENS UNITED v. FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION (https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supreme-court/08-205.html)

"... holding that corporations have a First Amendment right to free speech because they are "associations of citizens" and hold the collected rights of the individual citizens who constitute them." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_personhood#:~:text=T....]
Alot of huff and a lot of guff the end result will be Elon will think of this as buying his version of the washington post and then will be relatively hands off.
While I was at WhatsApp, we used hot loading for most server updates on our Erlang cluster(s). There's tricks and traps, but if you do things right, it basically works and you can fix a lot of bugs right away without dropping connections.

The way Erlang works is any module can have two versions loaded; you can call them current and old. A fully qualified function call (Module:Function) calls into the current module, but non-fully qualified calls (like function calls within the same module, and some function references) will stay with the version they were made from, so if you're in what was current code, and a new version is loaded, current becomes old and non-fully qualified calls go to old.

You can only have those two versions though, if you load a third, any processes that are in the old version will be killed before current becomes old and new becomes current. There's ways to check if there are any processes 'lingering' in old code, and design techniques to reduce the chances of that; the easiest is making sure your loop code calls ?MODULE:loop(...) instead of loop(...), and most of the OTP looping constructs (gen_X) do that, or even if they weren't reloadable, they're doing the looping and calling into your code with fully qualified calls anyway. Tail Call Optimization is the easiest way to get the older code off the bottom of your stack, although there are others.

Of course, you can do hot code loading in lots of other languages too. In C, you can do it intentionally with dlopen/dlsym, or if your OS uses mmaped libraries, by editing libraries while they're loaded (whoops! use install instead of cp to avoid doing that by accident).
I got

y+dy, x+dx

which... um... was the contents of my clipboard before I attempted the trick. Probably firefox doing the right thing in a private session.
Sure, but what percentage of users know about it? Of those, what percentage remember it?

Defaults matter! Most people will just see the default state of things and not be too curious about ways they could change things, and never even notice this sort of setting.

And on top of that, like Facebook did long ago with its chronlogical timeline setting, it resets itself back to the algorithmic timeline periodically.

Twitter confirms sale of company to Elon Musk for $44 bn
I'll show you are wrong by showing that your ideas aren't consistent. I'll show your ideas aren't consistent by showing your ideas are self-refuting. Your post denies its own utility. Observe: Lets say you are correct. As a direct result of being on a social media product you are claiming that it is "kind of laughable" that anyone with "rational ideas" would think your comment is "capable" of "making a dent" in "making the future better." Your polemic against the conceptual framework of socially derived value is self refuting in that it attacks itself. It can't stand.

Now lets approach refuting your claim a different way, not of itself, but instead by providing a rational idea which is compatible with the idea of a good life and is a byproduct of social media. Social isolation is known to create extremely negative well being consequences in social actors. Pandemics encourage physical isolation. Social media provides a mechanism for social interaction despite physical isolation. Yet your claim is so strong that you accidentally imply that even the idea that a large segment of the population avoiding fractured sanity might be of benefit to our future is laughable and has no rational bearing.

Self-refuting, inconsistent with observation. But why? How do you get there? I think you get there because you are an intelligent observer. Game theoretic tit for tat consequences of defection take time to play out and produce a bubble of observation from your perspective which misinform your beliefs. Defection in game theoretic terms is truly laughable, though rational in zero sum games; it is obviously inferior to policies rooted in love which don't degenerate into tit for tat destruction of value. We're in such a time and in such a bubble and so there are many which draw the obvious conclusions. It looks different over larger time slices and so different people come to different conclusions on the value of social utility. Ultimately, this results in them not only valuing social utility, but valuing it even to the extent of free speech to those they vehemently disagree with. Going into why leads to arguments rooted in information theory, ensemble models, and shared values; yet with literal and without any hyperbole war occurring even as we speak and one of the battlefields being social media, this isn't currently a compelling thing. Self-preservation instincts are strong enough that even near certain victory doesn't dispel them. Anyone who goes cliff diving into water will have sensed this. Jumping is hard, even if the action is safe, it doesn't feel that way. And we think fast and with feeling because reality is so complicated that to do anything else would be paralysis.

Free speech is probably safe. Social media probably does have value. Yet it is hard to see it, because society is still learning and part of that learning process is punishing defectors in our shared cooperative game which demands love above all else.
I'm not trying to say there are no differences, but I find the exaggerations tiresome. When companies or people are muzzled by National Security Letters, whistleblowers jailed and companies bankrupt people with SLAP suits for saying something they don't like, that's somehow not a restriction on free speech in the U.S.

However, when a country doesn't allow you to promote or advocate for war crimes, then it's "only the U.S. has free speech", go figure.
Experience with Designjoy
Elon Musk to acquire Twitter
I'm sympathetic, but some aspects of privacy are absolutely rights (and should continue to be). In the US, for example, HIPAA restricts health care providers from wanton dissemination of your private health information. This applies to Elon Musk as much as anyone else. I'm happy enough considering that a human right, inasmuch as similar laws don't apply to my dogs' veterinary records.

Or consider someone pointing binoculars into our window from a a high vantage point so that he can watch my partner undress. If privacy is "our duty", should we be required to use closed blackout curtains on all windows at all times, or else it should legally be our own fault for being watched? My vitamin D is already low enough.

I absolutely agree that you give up certain aspects of privacy when you accept the privilege of being extremely wealthy. No argument from me there. But I still think Musk should enjoy the right of showering without someone selling uncensored photos of the event.
I'd get absolutely chewed out as a Starbucks barista or working in food service in general. I don't think it's fair to say it's a job that requires zero effort.
But what exactly is “the law?” It’s not like this stuff is cut and dried even within the US. Posted this elsewhere, but free speech laws are some of the trickiest legal issues we grapple with in the US, and many statues hinge on the intent behind the speech. How is Twitter supposed to implement this (hypothetical) new policy? Do they always give posters the benefit of the doubt? Seems ripe for abuse. Assume the worst? Probably more censorious than it is today. Punt to the courts? Great, moderation now takes years and costs thousands of dollars. What is the standard of proof to take down a tweet? Preponderance of the evidence? What evidence is admissible? Does Twitter just internally recreate the US trial court system to manage this? What about cross-border disputes? What about laws that directly conflict? What about international law? Treaties to which the US is not a party (eg Protocols I & II of the Geneva Convention)? If “following the law” were easy we wouldn’t have so many layers and judges
You can see some examples here https://aipaygrad.es/
That's why I was thinking more about a key renegotiation, which I know exists in SSH and existed in TLS at one point (at least I know there's a shortcut for it in openssl's s_client).
Eh, if you boil all research in AI/ML down to the binary of "AGI or bust," then sure, everything is a failure.

But, if you look at your smartphone, virtually every popular application the average person uses--Gmail, Uber, Instagram, TikTok, Siri/Google Assistant, Netflix, your camera, and more--all owe huge pieces of their functionality to ML that's only become feasible in the last decade because of the research you're referencing.
The Lichess World Championship
Hating liberals and hating liberalism are two different things. You can yourself be a liberal and dislike the train you're riding on. I would count myself as one. I think a rational person would argue actions > words. Actions: building the world's largest EV fleet/tech, building alternative energy sources, investing in renewable tech.

You're actually advocating for the "other investors", like the Saudi Prince. Imagine being a real, actual liberal and advocating for a government that behead women for "cheating" on their "husbands" – OVER – a billionaire building EVs.

And if you are into words over actions, watch his TED talk. I don't see any reason why he would bring Trump back on. His main talking points were the invisibility of Twitter's algorithm. When pressed on being a "free speech absolutist", he conceded several points where it doesn't make sense to be an absolutist.
Twitter is RESTful (I think, not web expert) so they are just get requests, but the low latency makes it appear as live communication because you can just keep sending gets and update the client. Over an interplanetary scale with minutes to hours of delay between sending and recieving a signal, it would just be infeasible to create the same experience. It would be much better to just use one way messages, like that of video recordings or sets of texts that are recieved in full, with whatever losses would have to be simply accepted as part of the cost of communicating in space. Confirming receipt and communicating errors to the sender (like that of TCP) would just mean now you have to wait 2x times more to get the next chuck of the message again and hope that that too isn't degraded, so it would be pretty lossy, pretty "slow" level of communication, very much unlike the internet here on earth.

Social media in general would be infeasible on an interplanetary scale.
Any company that didn't have this set up already can reside at the bottom of the ocean with the rest of the bottom feeders (no disrespect to the mussels)
Exciting! Thanks for publishing the stats!
Here is an example that didn't require ionizing radiation:

https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/covalent-bonds-crack-und...

And there's always good old oxidation-reduction, where adding a little heat (from non-ionizing radiation) pushes the reaction in one way instead of another. And since with RF this heat will penetrate and concentrate into the places that absorb the given wavelengths (i.e.: average vs max), it isn't quite the same thing as being "just a little warmer."

There's also denaturation, where primary structure is intact, but secondary/tertiary/... are altered--which can significantly effect function.

I'm not advocating for or against RF here, as much as I'm pointing out that life is complicated, and maybe we should approach it with humility instead of the physics 101 midwittery that plagues this horrible PR board.

And if that doesn't satisfy, maybe John von Neumann will get through:

“If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.”
But cars don't navigate 3d spaces, it seems like that would make results not so transferable. How does a fly avoid in-air collision with another fly? Answer: it doesn't need to.
I'll fix that. I am using some sort Javascript key bindings that are using key codes rather than ASCII (so NumpadEnter is of course something else).
You have a custom cooling system? Because I see that CPU measured at 150W... just the CPU.
Perhaps he's good at getting the right people to run the stuff he owns?
Good, it means that "journalists" will have to do some actual research before writing their articles.
Side note, if anyone has watched The Hunt For Red October and thought "why can't I do this in a video game?" definitely pick up Cold Waters. The core gameplay loop isn't for everyone (depending on difficulty and era it can involve a lot of slow-paced stealthing around) but for me it's a ton of fun.
The chances of him actually complying with any rules? (Well maybe after Musk sets his new rules I guess...).

But Trump broke the rules multiple times and then was trying to get around his first ban. Treating Trump differently would be giving him his account back, I don't see any reason that if you try to get around your ban you should get your account back.

Elon Musk Buys Twitter for $44B – Slashdot
Bartek from Deno here, this is mostly true. The runtime heavily relies on the Web standards, while Go was a heavy inspiration for Deno's standard library (deno_std [0]) in the early days. Since then, we've been relying on Web standards even more and the standard library started seeing more modules added that were based on popular npm modules.

On another note: huge thanks for rust-analyzer, not only is it my main daily driver, but we also used it as a reference for implementation of "deno lsp" - the language server that ships with Deno.

Running against a unix socket doesn't seem to make that a selling point for SQLite.
I love the design, it's super snappy.

I wonder what's being missed on articles that have commenting disabled.
I have no idea why. I have seen that on Chrome (not as bad as 1 FPS though). If I refresh upon landing, it's back to 60 FPS.

I don't see this on Safari.
The board actually held a pretty minimal % of the company, I would not read anything into the average shareholder's view from the board's position.

Elon's next move was a tender offer which put the issue in front of shareholders for an up/down vote on a full buyout, which would sidestep any board poison pil.
Very few people will actually leave Twitter over this. Those saying they will are the mostly likely to be caught in its addictive vortex.
That may well be true. Thatcher gambled that home owners were more likely to vote conservative (and she was right). But an investigation of the historical cause of our lack of social housing does nothing to solve the problem in 2022, which is what I meant when I said it is irrelevant. We have hundreds of thousands fewer houses than we need, so it doesn't make sense to significantly increase the population of people who will need social housing.
they actually liberalized this outdated law, so they moved towards more freedom of speech, what's your point?
I am reminded of an Achewood comic [1] about a Harvard study regarding love: "So maybe the next time you Harvard guys decide to study some Harvard guys ... just remember that for most folks the Maslow hierarchy tops out at lookin' in the bathroom mirror without drawin' an X in the steam."

Elon Musk Bought Twitter [tweet]
Nah, social media is plenty feasible and the Twitter UI/abstraction is probably ideal like GP says (although I think the implementation would be different than you're imagining.) They'd just colocate on the other planets and replicate the database. Stuff like that is a solved problem (in the case of TCP, just increase the window size. Although you'd probably want to make sure transaction boundaries and packet boundaries line up to minimize latency/jitter. If they wanted to minimize the latency they'd make large media available as a merkle tree and make blocks available as they arrived correctly a la Bittorent or IPFS (heh.))

The delay this introduced would have a social effect similar to time zones: "Oh the martians are caught up to event <x> and their reaction is <y>" instead of "Oh the Australians are waking up after event <x> happened today and their reaction is <y>."
Yeah I mean Parag was not going to make it. He was a lame duck but the product itself can't be changed much as it is still about amplifying status updates.

Pushbacks on Elon threatening to bring free speech back (hopefully addressing the toxic witch hunts, cancelling) were seemingly orchestrated by incumbent billionaires with their own mainstream media outlets feeling threatened by it—because it would undermine the impact of their own loudspeakers if views that challenge popular narratives or The Current Thing.

Anyways, I am not a fanboy of Elon by any means other than SpaceX, I think it was a refreshing move for a billionaire to not just buy another mainstream media outlet. Unsure what will happen going forward ....

but strictly from a business point of view, buying Twitter for the purpose of profiteering was a bad one, but at his level, money has become irrelevant, its more about control here.

Having said that I do question how far he would be able to take the free speech thing as a private company.
As someone whose intention is to go to Medical School and pick up programming (+ math skills) to potentially work at the intersection of ML + Healthcare, the knowledge of the regulatory hurdles expressed is discouraging. Not sure if it really is worth the effort to study tech on top of medicine. Are there any people with experience within ML + Healthcare/Medicine or know of startups that are making great strides within this realm?
I also dislike working at these places. This is something I'll be doing for a few years and then leaving corporate life with a big pile.
He didn't before, still behaved badly, and finally got removed for demonstrating significant harm to the US.

There is no reason to believe that he's changed.

Show HN: A Doodling app like Wordle
I've been working on this fun little app for a couple of weeks. I've been inspired by Wordle, but I found it a bit too intense and competitive, so I wanted a daily "zen" app to play with my friends and family, and I came up with this!

Every day, a new random shape and colour palette is generated. Draw what you see, relax and have fun. I've been playing with my wife and some friends for a week and it's quite addictive! Have a go and let me know what you think!

Cheers

Re-platforming Trump is also not the same as being pro-Trump.

Edit: This is not about whether de-/replatforming is the right thing to do. Only about the fact that Musk can have (legitimate or illegitimate) reasons other than his political support of Trump.
Well... as written on the linked site, you just install by running:
`curl -L get.fleet.rs | sh`. And you use `fleet run` instead of `cargo run` within your rust projects. Only works for nightly right now.
“Love” is not a singular concept, the word refers to a whole lot of different things, and it’s also different from happiness and longevity (what the study measured). The article also doesn’t mention meaningfulness. What you wrote therefore seems like a non sequitur.
I'll add another data point in opposition. I expect to see only the latest title for each company on a resume and my resume is organized the same way. It's practical, not deceptive.
