I returned my amazfit bip almost immediately. It's too dim with the backlight off and looks like a toy with the backlight on. If you look for photos of real life usage you'll see what I mean. The wyze watch blew me away in terms of looks and battery life (especially considering the price), they must be selling at a loss. However I'm also not a fitness junkie so I don't use the watch heavily and can't report on how useful the watch actually is
So what you're saying is, Chicago property is staying relatively affordable for people who want to buy a home and live in it?
Yeah, I was thinking something like this would be useful for filming myself surfing (to get a better idea of all the things I'm doing wrong), but I have no drone experience either and didn't realize that such short flight times are the norm. Sounds like that kind of use case won't be realistic for quite some time.

Yeah I think mostly you're right. The `charAt` stuff assumes UCS-2. I think the `codePointAt` stuff is fine though? Unless you think we'll get to 2 billion code points I guess (then, I've always thought Java having no unsigned types was bananas)
Above, we’re looking at parallel performance of the NASA USM3D CFD solver as it computes flow over a classic NACA 0012 airfoil section at low speed conditions.

If this solver relies on matrix multiplication and uses the macOS Accelerate framework, you are seeing this speedup because M1 Macs have AMX matrix multiplication co-processors. In single precision GEMM, the M1 is faster than an 8 core Ryzen 3700X and a bit slower than a 12 core Ryzen 5900X. The M1 Pro doubles the GFLOPS of the M1 (due to having AMX co-processors for both performance core clusters). And the M1 Ultra again doubles the GFLOPs (4 performance core clusters, each with an AMX unit).

Single-precision matrix multiplication benchmark results for the Ryzen 3700X/3900X and Apple M1/M1 Pro/M1 Ultra are here:

I fly FPV drones, I have one very similar to that size. running a 1s 300mah lihv I get about 3 to 5 minutes. 5 minutes damages the battery. but the tiny lihv never liv long enough anyways.

I'd expect it to get close to that time, but it has so much more plastic around it. but then again it's not transmitting video.

You can trust them, that's not the point. the point is, you can keep your pen or your calculator without having to pay rent on them. You can't keep your land/house unless you pay rent on it to the govt. Considering that all humans require shelter to continue living (surprising: the homeless in the US die 30 yrs younger than the average), a case can be made that property taxes for a minimum amount of land necessary to live are unreasonable. otherwise it's a tax on life

Yeah, I tought that. You can create a pretty small (ye hugely playable) game even for MSDOS and a 286 with Inform6 targeting the V5 version of the machine, and the V8 may requiere a 386 and up (any 24/32 bit machine in the end, think Amiga/Atari with m68k), but IF7 it's overkill, you can do a lot more than games.

Most games made with Inform6 are many times more complex than Infocom games (not to mention Zork/Dungeon and Adventure), so this is a crazy tool.

It's like a literarian Prolog.
I don't think not handling errors after every single method call, makes the code dense. Its just way easier to read. 99% of the time you're just going to wrap the error in your own error and return so why not just have a single place that does that?
Wow that is pretty naive. Let’s see:

A lot of stalking and harassment laws are state level and not the same in every state. Since online harassment is a common problem on Twitter, which state’s laws would you like to apply?

Spreading misinformation that results in violence towards an individual is not governed by federal laws unless it falls under the definition of a hate crime.

Spreading misinformation about results of elections isn’t illegal but is very obviously quite damaging and has real world consequences. How do you tackle this issue?

That’s just a very very small sample. The problem you are going to face with your approach is that the US laws were not designed with the idea of governing stuff on Twitter.
> I personally haven't seen any problem solved by the blockchain thus far.

Solved problem: Hyperinflation caused by excessive governmental money printing.

Yes, I know you may not consider this as a "problem", but tell that to the millions of people who have had to watch their life savings being erased to zero value.

Yes, the Bitcoin price may be jumpy, but we aren't yet seeing kids playing with bricks of trillions of Bitcoins because they'd be so worthless that you can give them to your kids as toys.

That DID happen with fiat currency:

Enter "hyperinflation" into your favorite picture search engine.

I personally own a 1 billion bill of a previous currency of my country which I bought for the equivalent of $5 on eBay.
A dish washing machine is useful. A clothes washing machine is useful. Christmas lights help celebrate a tradition that's important to billions of people, some of whom see deep religious meaning it. Cars are useful. Laptops are useful. As such, none of these things can be compared to blockchain. You're making an invalid comparison. To take one use case of blockchain, Bitcoin debuted in 2009. It's been 13 years, about half the age of the commercial Web. If blockchain was going to lead to something useful, then that would have happened already. Its failure to find a use case suggests that this is pure hype.
> That isn't true, you need parentheses for procs with no arguments, else it's interpreted as a proc pointer. Try `echo` vs `echo()`.

My bad, I meant 0 argument member functions (or rather 0 additional argument functions, apart from the this pointer). So `foo: Foo` and then `i = foo.len()` directly shows me that I'm calling a function, `i = foo.len` looks like I just access a member variable. len is obviously not the best example but I still don't think hiding the fact that a function is being called is a good idea at all.

> It's used for declaring variables of an object. `type Foo = object` and `var foo: Foo`.

Good point, I didn't consider that. So far never came up in my code but I can see that it sometimes can be useful to do something like that.

> So it's not uncommon or weird. Just programming languages are overly restrictive.

Natural languages have been case sensitive long before programming languages existed. Again, I'm not saying it's a bad feature - on the contrary, definitely appealing in some case - it's just not what we're used to and hence a bit "weird".
And it's not your responsibility to enforce false equivalency, either. You are not required to give equal time to all views. That's one of the ways that disinformation has vaulted into the national dialog so easily: media was offering equal air time to opposing parties and/or viewpoints, even if they knew that one of them was objectively untrue in an effort to be viewed as "unbiased".

Preface: I have a pretty deep musical background; bachelors & masters degrees in flute performance.

I have a 7 yr old. Her kindergarten required either piano or violin, and we opted for piano. At that time, we implemented a daily '5 minutes of piano' mini-lesson where I'd help her with her current lesson/song. We're doing homeschool now, but have kept up the '5 minutes of piano'. My daughter doesn't really like it that much, tbh, but I've made her stick with it because: a) she's actually quite talented -- great pitch/rhythm, and can already play by ear, for example, and I'd like to get her to a point where she can really enjoy that talent, and b) as a general lesson in perseverance/grit/skill mastery.

But I really struggle with the notion that the above is simply a rationalization and that I'm really trying make up for my own failure[1] to achieve my own musical goals vicariously through my daughter. And I've also struggled not to force it too much. I've bent over backwards to make it fun -- I make up games, do a variety of musical/rhythmic activities like drumming, dancing, or even playing pattycake, or do things like watching Fantasia or even listening to pop songs. And I've had to put the brakes on thoughts like "we're going to polish the crap out of this song so we can impress the relatives" and focus more on the overall process: is she having fun? On the other hand, I'm trying to not reward a "this requires some effort so I'm going to quit" type of mindset.

It's definitely been a tough balancing act.

To address your point rather than your sarcasm: headphones are unsafe while cycling because they block environmental sounds (though it’s true that music from a speaker can impact attentional blindness. There is also the shared experience of listening to music with another person. The ability to create a “music bubble” around you without disturbing others satisfies both parties.

Ultrasonic speakers aren’t even exotic tech. I first encountered one in a museum at least ten or fifteen years ago.
I could never get why people didn't just ignore Go and move on. It's not the things that are wrong with it, but rather there isn't very much right with it.

I get that compile time is a big problem for C++ developers. (Gotta break it to that kid who wants to break into system programming that it's easy to get a C++ job that comes with a 45 minute build)

The counter-argument that I first heard for the REBOL language is that the fear of slow compilation is the main reason why "we can't have nice things" in programming languages. For instance we are still using parser generators that are as unergonomic as the 1970s Lex and Yacc -- maybe because the kind of people who know how to write that kind of tool don't have a lot of empathy for less skilled developers who could accomplish a lot with parsers that are easier to use. If we had better parsers we wouldn't be hearing all this talk about how Common LISP is better for metaprogramming than other languages: instead of rejecting generative grammars and modern linguistics we could build programming languages whose syntaxes aren't set in concrete if we had better parsers.

Rust has some interesting ideas behind it. Go just splits the difference between C++ and Java.

I find it interesting that this comment has flipflopped gray and black. It seems reasonable enough?
Or you'll find its just a mess of hundreds of off-the-shelf components glued together, none of which the government has the source code for :(

So basically you're right - you'll get an unbuildable clusterfuck.
Why do you think that person wasn't an adult?
Definitely. Go is not the last word in the conversation on programming language design, and it hasn’t solved the problem of prohibiting harmful abstractions. But I do think the conservativeness around abstraction is an improvement, at least culturally, over the way many language communities view software development.
New Relic's logging agent had a bug in it that lost a good portion of our logs for a few months last year. Support were extremely lethargic about diagnosing, and once they found that it was in fact a bug on their end, weren't at all apologetic. We dropped them and moved to DD for logging and it has been generally better so far, although I know by reputation they have price surprises now and again.

Amusingly, despite our account being closed, I received this same email this morning, so somebody there isn't exactly on top of keeping their mail list clean.
>(though I believe that source is now released for those with historical interest).

No. There was (and still it's) a huge ecosystem made with Inform6, even targetting the web if you chose GLULX and some of the settings which export the game for you.

The Guide:

https://www.inform-fiction.org/manual/download_ibg.html

There's Inform6, the Inform6 English Library (and some other s such as INFSP6 for Spanish, kinda close to the English one, the syntax is the same, even for the objects), and two manuals: the IBG, and DM4, the Designers' Manual, for hardcore people who want to create for example new libraries doing unusual things.
This is why I want more availability of eink displays.

There's lots of places I would like to put an information readout, but not have it be an attention draw through anything.

More related to the fact that eink uses external lighting I suppose. Still.

This reminds me of the time when I bought my first smartphone, which was quite late. I delayed it as long as possible, but as soon as I had it, I stopped reading books on the train. The Web is just too addictive. At least with snappy refresh rates.
It is absurd, but such absurdity is needed to make the energy waste relatable.

You could compare a blockchain transaction's energy use to that of a credit card payment. But that would not convey the scale difference.
This isn't entirely true. It's not the same intensity of flicker, but LCDs do have a small amount of flicker at about half their refresh rate to flip voltage and reduce the chance of burn-in. Also, the backlight itself may flicker depending on what kind of light source is used (especially if it's not an LED backlight, but cheap LED lights do flicker -- see christmas lights -- so it's possible some cheaper LED panels might have this effect too?).
> Everyone loves the idea of reducing regulatory burden but they always fail to give specifics.

You're right, apologies for not being specific.

Specifically, all of them.

Object to framing of the question. Hints at a false dichotomy. Desirable outcomes can be achieved without precisely following a regulation.

Snapchat is used by more than 90% of 13-24 year olds in the USA and Gen-Z increasingly prefers it to any other form of communications social media. The ephemeral, personal nature of snap has been enormously popular with the youngest generation, and there's no sign of it stopping. Latest Q1 reports show daily users up 18% annually, 2 million more than forecast.

Are they looking for more money? Yes, as is their fiduciary responsibility as a publicly traded company... but that doesn't mean they're flagging.
I don't understand why the multiple versions are a major concern? We shipped 3 codepaths for JPEG XL (SSE4/AVX2/AVX-512) with a binary size of a few hundred KiB.

> This has been one of the most infuriating things about the internet maturing or whatever it's doing. All the big players trying centralize and tie all of your accounts to you. I've been rather hesitantly linking my steam/game/publisher accounts with twitch for in game loot, but I really hate doing it.

They bought you for in-game loot. Time to check your own personal definition of "hate".

I'm being mean because I feel that for those of us who "hate" something, we need to act on that feeling and accept the consequences. This seems the only way to change (yes, I know it's mostly insignificant in the face of the millions of counter-cases). If you give in the craving, there's no chance at all. You gotta be in it to win it.
It only matters to the extent that many existing systems are built on the assumption that the economy grows over time... e.g. taking on a 30y mortgage. If environment becomes deflationary, then it becomes a deathtrap.

I think nominal GDP targeting is pretty bad policy though. Deflation can be a great thing for people, if its focused in the right areas.

e.g. imagine population is cut in half overnight... suddenly housing becomes very cheap and affordable, even in previously desirable areas. Of course, need to deal with all the ramifications and second order effects of that (lots of financial instruments would implode as their inflationary baseline assumptions unravel).

Debt instruments of all kind become problematic with deflation. At least in their current form.

Fortunately the US could toggle on population growth on a whim through changes in immigration policy
Yeah. That's just like, your opinion, man.

How does the 'Q = vA' law you mention apply, to reason on an example, to the case of A2, as a limiter to the rate?

It makes little sense to use A2 on a long-lasting render - nonetheless, I suppose the decay time will be relatively long (I have never notice an A2 dot change state...).
