I'd say that there's less knowledge shared between Python frontend and Python backend than between Python and JavaScript frontends. Outside of syntax and ecosystem, I wouldn't think there's much shared between Python backend and frontend.
Then you can just as well expand the definition of systems programming languages to JS, Java and Python.. sure, don’t get me wrong, there are very very few niches where a managed language can’t be applied (a whole OS can be written in GCd languages) but there is a few and in these cases Go is simply a no-go (sorry for the pun).
"I told you so", perhaps wrapped in a corpspeak package if the recipient is resonant to those frequencies, adds a lot of value in terms of me not having to handle the fallout. Yes, I know some people want to do an awesome job, be noticed or whatever, but the easier solution (and fairer) is to let the fire burn under whoever caused it. OTOH if you find yourself in a situation when you have to clean up mess that was caused by indifference to your own concerns then it simply means you've lost politically, sadly.

Seems like that really ought to be made a compile error!
the thing I never understood about this is why Intel didn't just add latency to the avx512 instructions instead? that seems much easier than downclocking the whole cpu
Reasons why I don't enter writing queries without starting a transaction first. ABORT, good sir, ABORT.
I'm not a fan of the magic mouse because the ergonomics isn't good for your hand over extend uses of time. I wish Apple would make a "magic" trackball.
Sure but sometimes you need to get your hands on system libraries, C headers, linkers etc.
This is awesome! Bookmarked!
Due to the tree structure of comments though, those people can quickly and easily be side-stepped. I'd also suggest that the "just asking questions" behavior performs relatively poorly here because there is likely some one who is going to be able to thoroughly and resoundingly answer. The point of such behavior is to impact the audience and it can be successful because its easier to ask hard questions (with provocative insinuations) than it is to answer them, but it backfires badly when those questions are answered.

Out of curiosity, what 'outgroups' are you talking about? Some social groups are simply unpopular because we consider their views and perspectives to be disgusting or at least worthy of social censure; open bigots, people that don't wear shoes inside convenience stores. I ask because I've started to associate vague references to 'outgroups' with 'horrifying bigots that identify as conservative' and I wouldn't want to unduly lump whatever group you're talking about in with them.
You have not quoted the email correctly. The email says "excess purchase".

As someone who has experience with savings bonds and Treasury Direct, I still have no clue how to interpret that phrase. Savings bonds are discrete things with discrete values, even though TD has worked to smooth over that quality with arbitrary purchase amounts and partial redemptions. "Excess purchase" may very well mean a refund of the entire singular $9,975 bond that was purchased.

The way to find out is to call TD or search around web forums, but it's understandable that OP reacted to one possible implication of the message rather than taking a few hours to find out what it means.
Covid, like the common flu, was always understood as one day becoming endemic. And we'll continue getting more diseases and pandemics as we farm hundreds of billions of animals in disgraceful conditions every year.
My feeling is that C++ gained features. These new features allowed people to easily fall into some until-then unknown traps. Now C++ is gaining features to make these traps more visible and avoidable. The problem: to become proficient, you now need to know the features, its traps and how to avoid them.

Well chroma is giving an anecdote not necessarily how about how women choose him despite being short, but about the women who did end up choosing him realizing that height ended up being an irrelevant factor given his other qualities.
I’m not familiar with matriarchal societies. I aspire to a society where gender expression is independent from societal roles.
1. that's unlikely you're allowed to trade VT at all in this case.

2. the real hurdle is regulations rather than anything technical.

3. again, you don't need a technical solution, you need a legal one.

4. and this will be more effective thanks to a blockchain? How so? So far, blockchain-based solutions seem more costly rather than less.

The current system has a lot of limitations, but many (most?) of them are of regulatory rather than technical nature, and blockchains do not help in that regard.
Actually AVX-512 predates AVX and Sandy Bridge.

The original name of AVX-512 was "Larrabee New Instructions". Unlike with the other Intel instruction set extensions, the team which defined the "Larrabee New Instructions" included graphics experts hired from outside Intel, which is probably the reason why AVX-512 is a better SIMD instruction set than all the other designed by Intel.

Unfortunately, Sandy Bridge (2011), instead of implementing a scaled-down version of the "Larrabee New Instructions", implemented the significantly worse AVX instruction set.

A couple of years later, Intel Haswell (2013), added to AVX a few of the extra instructions of the "Larrabee New Instructions", e.g. fused multiply-add and memory gather instructions. The Haswell AVX2 was thus a great improvement over the Sandy Bridge AVX, but it remained far from having all the features that had already existed in LRBni (made public in 2009).

After the Intel Larrabee project flopped, LRBni passed through a few name changes, until 2016, when it was renamed to AVX-512 after a small change in the binary encoding of the instructions.

I also dislike the name "AVX-512", but my reason is different. "AVX-512" is made to sound like it is an evolution of AVX, while the truth is the other way around, AVX was an involution of LRBni, whose purpose was to maximize the profits of Intel by minimizing the CPU manufacturing costs, taking advantage of the fact that the competition was weak, so the buyers had to be content with the crippled Intel CPUs with AVX, because nobody offered anything better.

The existence of AVX has caused a lot of additional work for many programmers, who had to write programs much more complex than it would have been possible with LRBni, which had from the beginning features designed to allow simplified programming, e.g. the mask registers that allow much simpler prologues and epilogues for loops and both gather loads and scatter stores for accessing the memory.
Unlike JSON and XML its designed to be human readable and writable. It's more like a better YAML.
Ah that makes sense, I didn't think of that. Thank you.
This take totally misses the mark on the realities of the situation.

Intel made a bad bet on tech and wasn’t able to shrink the node. TSMC got the right choice. TSMC was therefore able to make better tech in the short term. Intel designs are not directly related to that shortcoming.

TSMC makes way more chips than intel. TSMC is therefore able to buy the fabs, equipment, engineers, etc at a lower price per chip (since more chips). TSMC is therefore able to spend more on their fabs, and invest more in research. Intel can’t keep up on the manufacturing side even if they can on the design side. The only way to justify the research costs and fab costs is to amortize it across more chips which means they need to manufacture for more than just intel. It’s basically the AWS model - you can be your best customer, but you can drive prices down for yourself with extra customers. Amazon didn’t abandon the revolutionary 2 day shipping when they became a data center provider. Assuming intel still has good designers left, they won’t abandon their own chips.

If people like redshifting, that's all that matters. Quite a lot of people like it, which is why implementations of this feature have proliferated. What's the point in moaning about the lack of scientific backing? Are you trying to convince people to stop liking a thing they like? For what purpose? It's not as though there is any harm in the feature.
Feynman had something similar: https://www.futilitycloset.com/2014/04/06/unquote-406/amp/

“[John] von Neumann gave me an interesting idea: that you don’t have to be responsible for the world that you’re in. So I have developed a very powerful sense of social irresponsibility as a result of von Neumann’s advice. It’s made me a very happy man ever since. But it was von Neumann who put the seed in that grew into my active irresponsibility!” — Richard Feynman
Are you sure? Engineers have no control over the isolated designers
Almost perfect, just need to remove that extraneous "today".
My first reaction glancing at the site was "Bluetooth Rubik's Cube". I could confirm in seconds that such cubes exist, but minutes spent spelunking the site gave no evidence that CubeDesk had even considered this issue.

This will be very useful when using with GPT-3. Thanks so much!

Some examples generated using the site title and tagline in the beginning of the prompt, confidence 0, and the first 3 samples. Some are misses, but it can be tweaked to come in very useful when I don't know how to provide constructive criticism or feedback.

There is a fly in my soup: I’m afraid there is something in this food that shouldn’t be here.
Fuck you: I strongly disagree with your approach/decision.
You make me cringe: Your delivery makes me feel uncomfortable.
I never loved you: Our relationship was purely professional.
I am so tired of all your fucking meetings: I’m not able to attend all the meetings you’re scheduling. Can we review which ones I can be of most help with?
I'm fed up with all these dumb "coaching" courses: I’ve taken a number of courses on this topic and I’m not convinced that this is the most effective use of my time.
I'd like to end our contract as you have been late for the deadline twice and haven't even given me a heads up: I regret to inform you that I will be terminating our contract as of today.
This is deeply impressive. I remain in principle opposed to web-centric audio app development, but this is probably the first one I've seen that puts a couple of small explosive devices under the foundations of that belief and gives it a good rumble. So much stuff that has been done right, and so much open-endedness to the entire system. As much as I hate to say it, amazing!
Ask HN: Should You 'Build in Public'?
It seems like a lot of people are "building in public" these days, which seems kind of awesome in terms of sharing learning, being accountable, etc. But I wonder about the downsides, like the distraction of having a content machine to fill, or the possibility the mistakes you make will actually be used against you later. What has been your experience?
Read "12 Rules for life" by Jordan Peterson; helping with that is what it's about.
One of the books I read before turning a side project into a full time business talked about the importance of finding two good "A"'s - an attorney and an accountant, and gave some tips for how to do so that I no longer really recall. The reason behind it however was that both tasks done well will take up a lot of time, and there is a lot someone that isn't specializing in them could miss. It did take a fair amount of effort finding someone good, but they both paid off very quickly and now we have someone we can trust in both roles
When I start reading the phrases and their corresponding responses. It gives me jitters because I have been in an org that used very similar language and I often connect that language to a toxic work environment and office politics.

I have worked in netherlands for dutch orgs, I love the fact that communication is direct, people communicate directly. You don't have read between the lines, if something has to be done, it said as it. There is BS in an org. There is toxic politics per say.

It could be just be me but I think an org could work efficiently if there was no reading between the lines and communication was to the point.
Fuck is one of the seven dirty words:

(Aside, but I don't think Carlin ever credited Lenny Bruce:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenny_Bruce#Obscenity_arrests

Lenny Bruce's 1962 "Dirty Words" album is on Spotify and Apple Music; worth a listen if you've never heard it.)

Jackson's use of fuck is typically to add emphasis to a statement, and actually, I think he uses "motherfucker" a lot more than bare fuck[1], but in any case, fuck has different meanings depending upon context. Consider: Oh fuck. Fuck off. Fuck you. I'm fucked. Hey lady, you wanna fuck?[2] This fucking bug. Let's get the fuck outta here.

It's an adaptable word but still bleeped on the air in 2022. At the same time, it's okay to allude to it on primetime TV as in: "Holy mother forking shirt balls!"

One interesting anecdote is that HPC planning for exascale included significant concern about machine failures and (silent) data corruption. When running at large enough scale, even seemingly small failure rates translate into "oh, there goes another one".
Corporations and black money from rich people giving to american political parties does provide an endless pressure on both parties to cater to the needs of rich people and companies, of course. But it's not that simple. The republican party has been the party that supported large companies directly, but the populism of Trump and culture war pushed most recently by DeSantis in Florida shows they are happy to score points against say Disney. The democrats have been pushing for people to have nationalized health insurance if they want it, which would definitely reduce the power of corporations - at the same time the dems go along with needs of big business very frequently. Yet dems support unions, repubs are very against them.

I agree with you that the core of this is money in politics leads to money having too much influence with politics. On the supreme court, I think that republican federalism has control over the court, that's the clear place where the 'ideology' of dems would lead to different results. But this isn't a secret, the parties encompass multitudes of views, because we squish all views into two fairly narrow groups with our accidentally designed for two-parties political system.
Hmm, I’d feel like a johnny come lately
I don’t think it’s all sugarcoating, some of the suggestions are just better ways to say something.

For example, the first item is you are overcomplicating this. Saying it that way sounds like you are expressing an objective fact rather than an opinion. Instead, saying let’s concentrate on initial scope is not only more diplomatic, it suggests a path to fix the problem.
It was always like that though. It’s just now “API” means “an HTTP endpoint serving JSON”.

And before it was SOAP.

And before it was MS COM.

And before it was some mainframe app in COBOL.
People that aren't in power not being able to communicate equally with those in power is why we have 1.Gossip[1] 2.Sarcasm[2][3] and 3.Passive Agressiveness[4]. Sometimes it even manifests as quiet protest and doing small destructive things like not meeting deadlines or other small acts of sabotage[4].

This is rarely understood by those in power though, they would see it only as disrespect rather than the only way to regain some small amount of power.

It's also worth thinking about not just broad strokes societal culture at a national level, but also family culture, like the metafilter post[5] about guess vs ask cultures explains, some feel comfortable asking for anything leaving the responder to say no (putting the load from the requester to the requested) while others guess and try to predict and will only ask when they know it will likely be a positive response (putting the load on the requester instead of the requested). Ask culture is probably more healthy, but despite that the real problems are when the two clash.

I suspect this is true, but it's worth noting that often we're in control of poorly documented API A & B in the first place, and could probably have avoided the much of the pain of later integrating them.
I find it better to say: "Do you think there is a way to make this simpler?". This has far better convincing power as it gives the individual space to provide input and it doesn't distance them. Slight variation of this usually makes it far worse – "Don't you think there is a way to make this simpler?".

Alternatively, "I think this can be simpler. Your thoughts?"
Yeah, that is exactly how I first came into contact with Matrix, it works great as an IRC client which is always active and keeps full history.
Since someone brought up trackballs, the scrollwheel on CST trackballs are awesomely, in the literal sense of the word, smoother than any other I've felt.
You comparison with building bridges without adequate testing is unfair. It's about increasing control, not giving permission to lower quality.

In terms of rollout it's more like releasing new drugs - initially it's very small groups that will be tightly studied, over time these groups are increased in size (and monitoring is probably reduced in scope).

The use of feature flags to control rollout and "blast damage" from unexpected behaviour or bugs is really useful. Let me give a real example I was involved with - mobile app development.

You can never test everything (not every Android phone variant, nor every 3rd party app which may interfere). Being able to roll out a new feature gradually and then revert (or in our case even blacklist certain models) is key to increasing quality and reducing problems. It also accelerates development and (in my mind a _key_ benefit) reduces stress/anxiety for the developers.
> I realised half-way through this project that the "right" way to solve this problem would be by building a client-server shell (not SSH, which is not a shell). A shell where all the interactive elements run on the client and the remote server accepts commands over a socket. However I could not find such a shell. I'll leave this as an exercise to the reader.

It would be interesting to split Bash into a front end and back end, with the ability to plug different protocols in between.
Tangentially sure it is, but it seems like a more concrete matter than what I would think of as a typical metaphysical topic.
this is great thanks for sharing
Turn off the TV and phone, semi-permanently, take a hike in the sunshine. Others explained why well.
It is clear so it works for me.
There is truth in most of what you wrote BUT it is not new. Go back in any era and you can almost find similar issues. You mentioned inflation. Do you know what the inflation was like in 1970s/80s in the US ?

"War..famines". Again, go back and you can find many examples of these over the last few decades. In fact, I would argue that we have less wars now in general (Can you imagine surviving during the era of World Wars?).

I think it is mostly the fact that we have all our basic needs met and now we can think about the problems in the world. I am in a similar situation where I want to do something for others and best way to start small and help others with whatever you can. Volunteer for causes that you care about and go from there.

There is a lot of joy in helping others and we sometimes just forget that as we are so tied up in our own little bubbles.
:) I have actually heard it referred to as AVX3, we also adopted that name in Highway.
I always find it fascinating that one of the few things so badly designed that they just have to be a scam, is actually real .gov stuff.
The problem with this mindset is that it sort of punishes woman for a perception thrust upon them since childhood. If you think its possible to meet some of these woman and convince them to say “I’m glad I took a chance despite your short stature because it turned out I don’t mind it at all” then I think it’s worthwhile to “help them see the light.” Plus, since this is a societal problem primarily it means you’d also be filtering out a lot of woman simply for the fault of having not enough experience in dating.
I think I was unclear. I always assumed (perhaps foolishly) that this kind of communication was the result of some sort of PR committee, and was mostly found in outward-facing communications. Are you saying that colleagues interact this was amongst themselves too? Because _that_ would indeed be despairing.
> This guy has less than 20 grand to his name and he's investing in I-Bonds? That's the real tragedy.

That was the shocking bit for me too, although I suspect (hope?) the author has more money outside that bank account.

I wouldn't recommend anyone with only $20k invest it or at least not entirely.
Sure they have (probably) the best risk-adjusted return right now but Savings I Bonds aren't a great emergency fund because of 12 month lockup and 3 month interest penalty for liquidation in the first 5 years.
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

No seriously, humans can have 100% truth about core things that have an insane amount of empiricism such as e.g gravity being real. But it is accepted that for any non-empiritismed ad nauseam knowledge, when we use universal quantifiers, we tolerate generally some credible kinds of exceptions, contextually.

Yuck.

I’m sick of living in a society where wealthy people are able to bully and harass others.

No corporation would feel bound to honor a price tossed out casually in an email with nothing signed — and it’s disgusting they’re suing an old man to bully him.

Why is it crypto people are so gross? — how can I take the current state of crypto seriously when a “major” platform acts like petulant middle schoolers?
Or the Zentraedi from Macross, who knew how to operate but not how to maintain their battleships, mechs, and other equipment (purposely done so they would maintain loyal battle-thralls to the Protoculture).
I've done some Swift using AppCode (https://www.jetbrains.com/objc/), a Jetbrains editor, and was very satisfied.
The systematic teaching of math at some universities doesn't make a whole lot of sense either. Why should linear algebra be taught after calculus? Why is number theory basically ignored by most of engineering and every other science at the undergrad level?

Something important for anyone engaged in technical design work is judgement. Ralph Peck, a famous geotechnical engineer has a good video lecture. It's a bit specific to civil engineering, but the broad strokes of exposure to history of your field, recent developments, a sense of proportion, and commitment to professional development are applicable everywhere.
