Sounds like you are misinterpreting me because I haven’t said anything that disagrees with the Bloomberg article, and in particular I agree more land is used for crops eaten by animals than crops eaten by people.

The amount of land used for pasture is definitely germane to the discussion we were having before you began commenting. See my first comment and the one I was replying to.

If you continue to assume bad faith, I won’t continue the discussion.

Congrats on the launch! meticulous.ai is great and the team is A+
I think someone has proposed a formula according to which we experience the passage of time as a function of age. So basically time passes faster the older we get, I guess the reason would be that there's less and less fundamentally new things to experience and hence less lasting memories. I saw it in a numberphile video, but don't remember which one unfortunately.
First of all, 512GB of RAM isn't that unusual. If you are supporting a million clients, most applications will need a beefy server. If only 0.1% of your clients are active, that's 1000 cores.

Secondly, you don't need 512kb per thread. The kernel will only use pages that are actually used, so by default new threads will use 4kb.
Thanks for the source. I guess it is possible to understand the text as "pro-sex" if one limits it to the context of marriage only and not allowing any anticonceptive mechanism. Independently of my personal beliefs I would not qualify anything with those limitations as "pro-sex", since they limit substantially what sex is allowed.
Try Danctnix w/ sxmo or the other sxmo one, it works a lot better for me. Everything works predictably, just takes a little time to get used to.

I see no better indication that Musk is onto something than the insane flailing from all sides (well one side) about how horrible it will be if he owns a website (that up until recently we were told we could all just make our own if we didnt like it).

Imaging if the media were this critical and questioning about all the power grabs that came with covid. Somehow vaccine mandates unquestionably protect our civil liberties but a private person owning a private website is a threat to all.
Perhaps, my understanding is that is all a result of Square's mismanagement so now with that seemingly out of the way maybe they'll course correct.

Hello! I'm a full stack software engineer seeking a full stack or backend position.

Location: Boston, MA

Remote: Yes but doesn't have to be

I recently built Bastion, an open-source Backend-as-a-Service that gets deployed to the cloud with AWS. I also authored a technical case study exploring design decisions and challenges: https://bastion-baas.github.io/case-study
For hacks, I use REVIEW to declare that this code is the way it is but an aspiring soul is welcome to submit a PR that replaces this code with a working version of the "right way to do it". It shifts the burden from the developer who made it work to the developer who would prefer it work some other way which allows the project to make progress.

You don't have to stay infuriated anymore.

The computers for in-car-entertainment is different and decoupled from the one for engine and throttle management.

As for the bloat, my observation (which could be wrong) is that Toyota seems to have comparatively less bloat.

I listed 3 exam0les. Why aren't I equally as likely to be the thoughtful person who arrived at the understanding on their own, or the person fortunate enough to have a parent who gave sensible advice?

Do I now get to take my fair turn at attacking the person instead of their argument? For instance maybe your fondness for ignorance is consistent with being ignorant of the fact that abuse is a thing that actually happens, and that manipulation is how it happens, and relies on the victim being unaware of recognizable patterns and processes. You can become aware of a problem even if you've had the good luck or the good sense to have avoided suffering it yourself. For instance I don't have to be a female myself to at least try to guess at the plight of females in general in the world we all share.

> no one is talking about doing this in rural areas.

Perhaps that's true in your experience, but I hear this fairly regularly including various subreddits, Twitter, and I've heard it here on HN as well (it's been a while, I don't care to dig through my comment history for links to the specific threads). Specifically, the argument takes one of two forms: either we should extend public transit and cycling infrastructure everywhere (including rural areas) or that we should implement policies that expressly accelerate urbanization and penalize rural life (or a combination).

> NNs are just glorified logistic regression.

2015 called, they want you back! Now seriously, "just" does an amazing amount of work for you. How do you "just" make logistic regression write articles on politics, convert queries in SQL statements? or draw a daikon radish in a tutu?

Humans are "just" chemistry and electricity, and the whole universe just a few types of forces and particles. But that doesn't explain our complexity at all.
I think, but can't prove right now, that Java pre-commits the stack so it has enough head-room to deal with exceptions. Maybe it shouldn't, but it currently does.

And the point still-stands - hardware threads are heavier than virtual threads.
That's the thing, the author here is using CSS and the hierarchy is still very poor and difficult to parse. It's the worst of both worlds.
afaict, "time" is simply a measure of matter in motion... ie resonant frequency or how long it takes a liquid to flow x distance. Thus, time is just a mental construct, not a "dimension", and "time travel" is not possible. There is only "now".

>Every unit of concurrency in the application domain can be represented by its own thread, making programming concurrent applications easier.

Funny, I have never heard anyone describe threads as the thing that made concurrent programming easier, or more threads would make it easier.

What makes concurrent programming easier is thread interaction models that make it hard to lock the process.

async\await, give you concurrency without the need to for the developer to explicitly write lock code. Much easier than having to manually handle that interaction.
Then go somewhere else. That's what people like this guy are telling everyone they disagree with, NOT just the extremists or trolls. Now that the tables are turned, I won't hold my breath for them to make that connection anytime soon.
The protection goes both ways, you vs the meat and meat vs YOU.
my wireless headset can be used while charging. not really a headache. at worst, my wireless headset just becomes wired for the time period that i am using it while charging.
> This seems so obvious in hindsight as the "right way". I wonder why we went down that whole async/await craze with so many languages?

Hindsight? There are many of us that have been advocating against the async/await madness.

I said it before and I will say it again. Async is today what OOP used to be in the nineties.
I don’t think the complaints about evaluation order in this blog post really make sense. The evaluation order of `map` in SML is no more mysterious than the evaluation order of `mapM` in Haskell. The use of explicit monadic sequencing has its advantages (as well as nontrivial disadvantages), but this is not one of them. This is particularly true if `mapM` is written using applicative functors, as the definition

mapM :: Monad m => (a -> m b) -> [a] -> m [b]
mapM f [] = return []
mapM f (x:xs) = (:) <$> f x <*> mapM f xs

is virtually identical in structure to the SML definition

fun map f [] = []
| map f (x :: xs) = op:: (f x) (map f xs)

aside from the “plumbing” of `return`, `<$>`, and `<*>`. Indeed, the whole motivation of applicative functors, as well as the source of their name, was a desire to write code in a form closer to an applicative style, which is to say non-monadic, direct-style code like the SML example. The blog post says

> Does it print the values in forward or reverse order? One could implement it either way.

but obviously this is also true of `mapM`. That would just be a different function. Monadic sequencing does not help with this at all.

Furthermore, the author mentions algebraic effect systems. It isn’t clear to me from the wording if the intent is to offer them as a solution for the shortcomings of monadic encodings or as a nicer way to pin down evaluation order, but the latter is certainly not true—the two are entirely orthogonal. Algebraic effect systems depend on the evaluation order being well-defined by other means to work in the first place. In fact, one could argue that the entire point of algebraic effect systems is to allow the composition of different effects while respecting an underlying notion of evaluation order.
Meat is more useful than low energy density gasoline/ethanol mixes that have higher CO2 emissions than regular gasoline.

Cattle could easily be grass fed. You just wait an extra year before selling calfs at auction. However, selling calfs leads to more $/acre of grazing land, and more cows per acre as well. A week or two eating grain in a slaughterhouse (if sold as a full grown cow) is rounding error.

The big problem I see is that the availability of grazing land is plummeting in the US southwest, thanks to desertification and climate change.

That might be offset by marginal farmland being converted to grazing (due to climate change), but that'll reduce grain production.
If it's only an issue at stop lights, it might just be a very high idle for whatever reason, and putting it in neutral wouldn't necessarily redline.

For throttle stuck fully open, going very fast on the highway, yeah you're gonna redline, but it's probably better to redline in neutral while you pull over than to turn the key off while you're still driving.

I think the answer to this is to do more interesting things on a regular basis. If every weekend you do something different, then the month feels longer than when you stay home every weekend.
> There are a lot of cattle raised in the Chihuahuan Desert

The cattle in southern california (Corona) were moved en-masse to the central valley as conditions have changed. Grazing traditionally moves north against the global warming trend.

No finer example of false dichotomy than this.

Hers is a textbook example of how not to negotiate. By textbook, I mean literally every textbook on negotiations that I've read.

Ultimatums are a tool of last resort, and they all caution their high failure rate. It also is typically a signal of a weak person.
Maybe OP is considering the earlier games in the series? I agree with you that certainly compared to Uncharted and Tomb Raider the latest God of War has far more engaging world design and combat.

As a user, isn't that already the case? When I use my AMEX, or Chase cards via Apple Pay, I accrue the same amount of points/cash back as if I were to swipe the card or enter the number directly.
It appears top be a luck of the draw in either case.

For me the Quectel firmware was very stable whereas the OSS firmware wasn't. "Stable" as in it would periodically crash, but would come back on its own within a minute. The OSS firmware would also crash but would usually not come back until a reboot.

This was with v0.5.5 IIRC. It seems to have gotten better since the 0.6.x versions of the OSS firmware.

Really the bigger reason to switch to the OSS firmware is that there's a privilege escalation vulnerability in the Quectel firmware that IIRC they still haven't fixed. In any case even if they fixed it in a new firmware release you wouldn't hear about it to know you should install it, whereas the OSS firmware is now being distributed through fwupd so it could be almost as mindless as updating your distro.
Yes, I think maybe the original VisiCalc was elegant, even if far less featureful. It was a game-changer, one of the first general purpose PC applications that let users do row/column based computing without programming, and along with word processing was the software that underpinned the explosion of PC use in business.
Inheritance through table extensions is truly an elegance in the eye of beholder :-)
If it is a natural distribution always present in software projects it follows that if you got rid of 20% of the project that was the most expensive in time and money to develop, the remaining 80% would now be 100% of the completed project and of that 100% of the completed project 20% of it would have taken up 80% of the time and money spent developing it.

If this is the case it is not an especially interesting or powerful concept for managerial purposes.
Not sure, but you might still have power steering if you leave it on but in neutral. If you turn it off, you'll definitely lose hydraulic steering assistance.
At that point they might as well have hired it out to someone on fiverrr (not a dig at people who work fiverrr at all.)

If the argument is Timnit was fired for her Stochastic Parrots paper, why weren't the Google authors that referred to her papers fired as well?

Instead, maybe Timnit was fired/resignation accepted not because of her paper, but because 1) she was in management, and 2) she explicitly told her reports to stop the work they're doing, for "reasons", to the point where Jeff Dean had to come in and ask the employees to continue working on DEI programs: https://www.platformer.news/p/the-withering-email-that-got-a...
> Gamecube controller

The Gamecube controller may have looked a bit funny, but it's at least recognizable by modern standards. I recall it being quite comfortable to use at the time. If you gave both it and the original N64 controller to a young person today who had no idea about Nintendo's history, I daresay she'd call the Gamecube controller the less weird of the two.

Also, it wasn't Nintendo, but I'd call the Dreamcast controller a bit weird. Gigantic, weirdly shaped, a dinky LCD smack dab in the center ...
That seems to run contrary to what others believe here.
