- Your choice of 2 IDEs, on startup

- A huge variety of example programs, including a gold BBC 1 logo with gold 3D spinning globe; a BBS terminal emulator with built-in menu of working BBSes you can access directly; a working Ceefax simulator which presents all sorts of news from around the world, in various catetgories, driven by gobs of RSS XML files; examples in 3D graphics, multi-touch, GUI-building, games including an upgraded version of Gorillas.bas

- Very easy compilation and packaging built together, including icon file generation

...kind of blown away to be honest! This is quite an interesting basic distribution.

Nobody does it anymore, because the Internet has messed up human interaction patterns.

At least here in Ukraine. Well, in some cities they recently started to congregate in basements during air raid alerts, but that's hardly a positive thing. And I've heard that in Belarus, during 2020 protests, when the whole country got disconnected from the Internet for a couple of days, people really hanged out IRL much more.

Instead of a hypothetical why don't you search for previous bills congress did pass?

In general they don't specify things such as 1000 AK-47s but instead (1) Require a report on what kinds of small arms UA needs (2) Authorizes spending of $x for small arms to be given to UA. Which is really as they should do since "congress has power of the purse" and isn't the executive branch.

Americans have this whole idea that all their payment woes somehow apply to the whole world. Just recently, John Gruber wrote a lengthy treatise excoriating Europe for trying to force Apple to open up their NFC access. His whole argument was that Apple created the tap to pay market and was due its monopolist rent-seeking because of that. The reality is so different from what is happening in the US that Gruber looked like an Apple fanboy trying to defend the capitalist monopoly from [he checks his note] democracy.

Europeans and Canadians actually prefer to use bank-issued cards with NFC chips instead of phones, because it arrived first and is far more convenient.

I wouldn't say the latter is hypothetical, or at least unlikely. We know from experience that complex systems tend to behave in unexpected ways. In other words, the complex systems we build usually end up having surprising failure modes, we don't get them right the first time. It's enough to think about basically any software written by anyone. But it's not just software.

I've just watched a video on YT about nuclear weapons, which included their history. The second ever thermonuclear weapon experiment (with a new fuel type) ended up with 2.5x the yield predicted, because there was a then unknown reaction that created additional fusion fuel during the explosion.

We really don't know, but I feel like they fell into a classic engagement trap. By focusing just on engagement, they didn't measure important externalities to just optimizing engagement.

Sometimes optimizing near-term metrics, like engagement, is easier. But it doesn't get at what's important. You can optimize engagement, but harm lagging metrics like user retention and brand authority. In other words, you can easily create click-bait, but it will sully your brand, and just put you in a vicious race to the bottom as you chase more and more engagement, from fewer and fewer subscribers that aren't interested in your brand anymore.
As with all things the size of the effect matters. There are many risks I’m willing to take and unless the expected value of eating a pizza sometimes is going to take years off my life, I just don’t care (and I’m thinking of buying a motorcycle so it’s not like very many risks actually matter any more)
Seems opposite to my experience.

I lived in Seattle for a while. Mentally ill, drunk, or intoxicated homeless are pretty common on the street. I witnessed shoplifting pretty often, threats and screaming people often, and people smoking crack pipes and injecting themselves pretty often. My wife was harassed or threatened multiple times by homeless people.

We moved out to the suburbs. Here, we see crowds of kids in the afternoons. They are playing in the park, roller blading, scootering around, running to one another's houses. Most of the kids are unattended and running about their own business. It seems much more natural and healthy than the environment of the city, where, not incidentally, kids were rare.

The "foreign scary place" was the city. The small community of neighbors who know one another is a friendly safe place. I would not want my kids running around the city by themselves - I don't mind it here. I don't think the reason is because of "hand wringing" or baseless worries over safety. I think the reason is that the city is overrun with mentally ill drug addicts who make a dangerous environment for unattended children.
Unless you can (and want to) replicate the monoculture of Japan in the US, this will remain an unhelpful comparison.
Best is to disable location services, which results into multiple disadvantages:

- maps don't show your location, which you would have to live with..

- I recommend F.lux instead of night shift and dark mode: you can manually configure a location in F.lux and let it enable dark mode as well.

- also manually set time zone
It's just a mix of climate and policy. In Milwaukee you can see some serious blight but they don't even allow overnight parking on the streets without a permit, let alone overnight pooping.
The fact no one seems to be able to exactly pinpoint the moment Android phones were able to support NFC payments kind of tells you why everyone credits Apple for making it popular. Because they did!
I had something very strange occur to me. I realized one of my eyes was weaker than the other; specifically my right eye (I’m right handed, right footed I suppose). I would every so often close one eye, then the other, just to compare and to see if I can help strengthen the weaker eye. I was aware of EndMyopia, Hormesis theory etc.

I went in to get an endoscopy done one day. They put me under for it for about 15 minutes or so. Not sure which sedative they used. Did the usual “count to three” trick where you’re out in less than a second.

After I woke up, some hours later I noticed that my weak eye had cleared up and the other one was now the weak one.

This effect went away some hours thereafter. Since then, I’ve often wondered what in the world could have caused that reversal.

When I use something like “active focus” (consciously and voluntarily shifting the focal plane) I can get the weak eye to clear up a bit. Sunlight helps immensely as well.

They are referring to sprawl externalities. Strong Towns delves into this (and they have some points, but are also overly pessimistic about suburban and rural costs).

Everything but the termination.
Financial security in the Bay Area requires a house there ($2-3M, nowadays) plus $COST_OF_LIVING/4%. This is easily $5M net worth. It's in "two Googlers and a successful exit at some point earlier" territory.

Granted, this threshold is less than $10M, but it isn't orders of magnitude less

All of which is to say that it is basically impossible to stay in the Bay long-term unless you make an absolute fuckton of money.

Well, you do have two other options.

One is to commute in 2hr or more every day. Which a lot of service workers have to do.

The other is to share a house or apartment with roommates (if you're single) or with another family (surprisingly common, because what else can you do?).

These are both lifestyle decisions that differ substantially from what most people think of as "normal", past your 20s.

What I'm saying is, merely living a "normal middle class" lifestyle in the Bay requires absurd money. So I can understand why people act like absurd money is normal.

Remember that time Google premiered an AI during the IO keynote that would call a business for you to take an appointment on your behalf? How often have you used this service since its been released? That's right, zero, Google never released the product. They always present things at IO they have no intention of doing. They're not trying to save the world, they're pretending that they're saving the world, one vaporware product at a time.

I have been working on doing this since the start of 2020. I purchased glasses for almost all the diopters from .5 to -4.25 (where I started) cheaply on Zenni, by going with minimal add-ons, it makes the total cost per glasses pair between $10 and $30 each. I have customized text on each of the frames that says their correction, since some of my frames are duplicates with different lenses. I am down to about -2.75 so far for normal stuff. I spend most of my day in front of computers so I end up using much lower correction between -1 and -2 diopters for the various screens I sit in front of to maintain the edge of just-in-focus depending on distance. You just have to remember that progress is slow, it took years get this way and will take years to go back. I wish you luck and patience if you try it yourself.

> With a security-strengthened operating system, or with a VM/container/sandbox, it is possible to ensure that any opaque user-space program is no security risk.

This is absolutely not true.

It is possible to restrict an opaque user-space program to the minimal set of permissions it requires.

In this particular case, the program needs to manipulate system hardware in undocumented ways, via vendor code which is extending the kernel.
FPGA is literally as parallel as you can make a computation, the ultimate jaunt towards the space end of the time/space tradeoff. Don't like waiting two cycles for your ALU to finish working on previous data? Put another ALU right next to it.

So yes, you can totally make a parallel program on an FPGA. As long as there isn't a data or control dependency between two statements, they can be implemented to execute simultaneously.

As far as flowchart programming, I'm not sure what advantages that would confer over existing HLS tooling.
via Postgres it supports the analytical workloads;

You're completely right. Although I could see just fine, my eyes were extremely fatigued after every workday and I just never realized it. Glasses changed my life. In fact I'm about to go in again for a second stronger pair of reading glasses for computer work. I might as well embrace getting old!

If California wanted more representation in both the Senate and the House, it could divide. Instantaneously the population of California would get 2 Senators and probably a large number of House Seats. Further, it would help with the political divide in California: coast is left, farmers are right. You don't see California, as a political entity, chomping at the bit to subdivide.

As to the particulars of your comment, States should have far more autonomy than they do under FDR's federalist system. States should be able to tax more, but with the Feds already eating 20-50% of the populations income, States have a hard time raising funds. If we weakened the feds, but first paying down the debt, Alabama might have a far more interesting economy.
I doubt it's so simple.

Most developers also don't think they're working
at the next Google. There's a different group within
many software companies that likes to think so, usually
not your ICs.

In the past ten years, I've worked at three companies with dozens of developers.

I don't know if they "think they're working at the next Google", but I would say they have close to literally no conception of "performance" that doesn't mean "scaling out" to hilariously overcomplicated architectures that serve mainly to pump metric tons of money into AWS' coffers.

I worked at a company that thought you needed a Redis cluster because Performance Reasons. And they paid AWS handsomely for that belief.

What were we storing in Redis, you ask? Literally kilobytes of ephemeral data (cached values, etc).

A cluster. For kilobytes.

Obviously most examples aren't that nutty, but this kind of thinking has poisoned a whole generation of developers. It's not their money, so who cares about the AWS bill? Fuck hunting for missing indexes in the database, they just spin up a new server. It makes them look better to management because they're "getting things done" and management isn't tech-savvy enough to know otherwise.

And these aren't morons. These are talented people who are also kicking legitimate butt in many cases.

It's really two overlapping pie charts, each hand forming a side of a slice with an imaginary line from the center to the top forming the other side. We read them together, but to work as pie charts they have to be read separately.

You can't get much useful information from the hands' relationship to each other without knowing their relationship to the imaginary up line. If I say, "The hour and minute hands are 30° apart", what does that tell you about the distribution of time into past and future?

The hour hand shows distribution of hours between most recent 12 and next 12 into past and future. The minute hand is an entirely separate chart showing the distribution of minutes in the current hour into past and future.

Trying to read a clock from the frame of a pie chart is kind of confusing though, given this overlap. I don't think I would call it a good pie chart, much less the most perfect one.

Maybe if the middle class suburban whites hadn't spent seventy years pushing crack into black neighborhoods, systematically breaking up families, demolishing communities to replace them with highways, extracting tax money and spending it on services for suburban middle class neighborhoods, arresting people for feeding the homeless, guarding discarded food so it doesn't get eaten, undermining education in poor neighborhoods, and straight up killing them when they request help from the authorities, some of those problems would not be as bad.
That does not make me want to learn k.
I also have a reasonable expectation that HK is FOCUSED and CIVIL. I do not have that expectation on Twitter.

Twitter is just a raw society fire hose and I'm fine with that. I think the future is to give SUPER clear power to individuals to manage their own experience. Freedom of speech is both the right to speak, but also the right of the listener to hear (or not hear) as an individual.

I would also love to see twitter evolve to become more substack-ish where communities are more "owned" and moderation is delegated to communities to determine rules based on trust and shared goals vs. just blanket twitter safetytism.

The Satanic Panic[1] and the McMartin preschool trial[2] were both in the early 1980s, and were key moments in the popular conception of child abuse. Another wave happened in the 1990s with prominent kidnappings/murders of children, which might be the one you remember.

There are systems these days where the hose retracts up into the vacuum tubing in the wall, so you just pull out however much you need and then let it feed back into the wall when you're done.

This is what I have and it's great. I also have a toe kick adapter, so I can use a regular broom and sweep the dust to a little port under a kitchen cabinet and it automatically sucks it up.

I don't have allergies, I just never liked the way it smells so dusty after using a vacuum cleaner inside.
> The "left's" contention with Citizens United was that spending money was treated as speech. But spending money is not speech. It's an act. Speech is content.

Citizens United involved creating and distributing a movie about Hilary Clinton. Spending money was incidental to the speech.

You're speaking like starvation is something out of a Roland Emmerich movie. Starvation doesn't literally kill people bing bang within a month. Mass starvation is a reduction in calorie output, which means a smaller birth rate, which our first-world countries are inoculated against.

There is no world where the children of the middle class share a community and public space with untreated mentally ill homeless people who have full and equal rights to that space.

We don’t want to violently oppress people over bourgeois norms of behavior but we do want to live in communities that adhere to such norms. That is the real social function of car dependent geography.
I don't buy it based on my own experience living around the world. I lived in Asia for a while where an apartment was the norm and public transit meant you didn't need a car (and most didn't have one).

What would the majority do if they had the money? What was their "dream lifestyle"? Buy a single family home, with it's own land and a car.

Sure, not everyone likes that lifestyle, but a hell of a lot of people do like it.
