This might have been true a couple of years ago but it is totally untrue now.

I'm not sure why you couldn't use the student version of Dyalog? Sounds like it would have been fine. There are also many more FOSS implementations of array languages now, such as ngn/k and April. https://github.com/phantomics/april

'only available for Linux' - not true https://github.com/abrudz/Kbd/ and others (also different input modes like `w for ⍵)

'no community support' - on the contrary there is a big and helpful APL community https://aplwiki.com/wiki/Chat_rooms_and_forums that is (imo) more useful than stackoverflow

'Dynamic scoping...' - Dyalog's (and other APL's) dfns have lexical scope.

'The language is extremely terse' - is this meant to be a bad thing?

'The code tends to be very hacky' - maybe if you write bad code or try and write C in APL (it won't work)
Desalination plants are capital intensive, and no one who builds them wants to run them only occasionally. They want to run them nearly all the time. Thus, nuclear, hydro, and geothermal are the best suited zero-carbon energy sources to work for it. Wave and tidal energy has not been deployed at any meaningful scale, but once they're in full production at scale then sure they could be used too.
Nvidia's is a tile-based immediate mode rasterizer. It's more a cache friendly immediate renderer than a TBDR.
I've been living on the edge using only #pragma once for several years and haven't regretted it. According to this support table, it's pretty widely supported these days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pragma_once#Portability
As a relative beginner with the Arduino API, I never have a reason to poke at registers directly and use print-based debugging over the serial port.

It seems like getting to "blink an LED" early is important for a reasonable "getting started" experience? I'd like to have a real debugger, but it looks awkward to set up compared to just plugging a microcontroller into a USB port.

I can echo some other comments here.

My daily drivers have been Linux for over 20 years. That said I have everything - Surface Book, several MacBooks, etc.

I’m most productive in Linux but Linux on laptops is still pretty rough. It took hours of weird scripts, kernel params, etc to get sleep/suspend/hibernate, display switching, etc to work the way I wanted. It’s still not perfect but it’s close enough.

I bought a new M1 MBP and wanted to give myself at least a few days trying it out (considering a scenario like yours).

I was expecting “it just works”.

Much to my dismay Apple has really slipped. The M1 itself was very impressive but MacOS just isn’t what it used to be. Weird display switching issues, weird resume with display issues, etc.

Thing is in Linux I at least know how to generally script up and somewhat automate these edge cases. I’m sure there are probably various ways to do it in OS X too but I wasn’t about to wander in that rabbit hole.

Also, I understand OS X is intended to be “safe” for the general user. That said the countless nanny features are extremely annoying. I generally want my computer to get out of my way. I bought you, I own you, I tell you what to do and you just do it. If I mess up I deal with the consequences. I don’t want to end up in system settings every time I need to give some application yet another permission for whatever (as one example).

I switched back to Linux after a few hours.

It's a little more than 2 years, and there should have been projects underway before even moving to Berlin.

I am sure they're doing good work and it's probably awesome to work there, but looking at the website, it's the kind of thing corporate bean-counters have nightmares about: https://korg.berlin/ No glimmer of product teases, just cool people bios, insta/facebook links, and oh yeah, they have a cookbook of recipes you can download!

Sort of makes me think of Brett Victor's DynamicLand project-- has a really awesome vibe, but where's the stuff?
like anyone in developing countries and especially wealthy white South Africans do fit this bill rather well would hoard their actual private wealth in other jurisdictions. just because the company itself is worth nothing on paper doesn't mean they haven't pillaged the country resources for private gain like all the other wanna-be crooks and aspiring kleptocrats.

well given enough time who knows how history will judge Musk. Take Bill Gates, anyone working in tech in the 90s knows he's about as ruthless as you can possibly be. Now Gates is known as a saint as he tries to buy his way into heaven.

When you have to attack Wikipedia as being generically unreliable, instead of presenting some reliable facts and citations about the discussion topic that actually prove your point, you don't have a point.
99% of techies I know who are also financially literate enough to be stacking sats are in the top 5% bracket income-wise. I know that because I know what sort of offers suggested by me they have rejected. If the 5-th percentile of tech pay in Germany is around that amount, I can't tell.

>I would never guess that a piece of even consumer hardware was designed with such low tolerances as to develop such issues.

It wasnt, the explanation in the blog is nonsense. 10 years is a good lifespan for capacitors working in hot environment, and that is what failed. Electrolytic Capacitors are perishable, they age even when not used.

>I ordered a set of new ones and appropriate tools, but I can't imagine doing this every two years. My previous laptop lasted around seven, after which both the battery and the power socket gave out.

then use better quality replacement mechanical part. People arent surprised when servicing cars, why different expectations with modern electronics?
Proteins are garbage? Fine, go without protein.
According to his father flipping the plane was only partly connected to funding the mine. He flipped the plane, and was only then offered the mine opportunity. He might have had ample funds for the mine regardless.

Either way, scrounging by to purchase a $300,000 luxury good (today's $ for the sell price of the plane) still qualifies a person as wealthy in my book, especially when taken together with owning the largest home in their area & his father's real estate & consulting business. It still means you had at least $300,000 in disposable income. Just because you choose to spend all of your disposable income on something like that doesn't mean you aren't wealthy.

> arm64 is the Apple ISA, it was designed to enable Apple’s microarchitecture plans. There’s a reason Apple’s first 64 bit core (Cyclone) was years ahead of everyone else, and it isn’t just caches

> Arm64 didn’t appear out of nowhere, Apple contracted ARM to design a new ISA for its purposes. When Apple began selling iPhones containing arm64 chips, ARM hadn’t even finished their own core design to license to others.

> ARM designed a standard that serves its clients and gets feedback from them on ISA evolution. In 2010 few cared about a 64-bit ARM core. Samsung & Qualcomm, the biggest mobile vendors, were certainly caught unaware by it when Apple shipped in 2013.

> > Samsung was the fab, but at that point they were already completely out of the design part. They likely found out that it was a 64 bit core from the diagnostics output. SEC and QCOM were aware of arm64 by then, but they hadn’t anticipated it entering the mobile market that soon.

> Apple planned to go super-wide with low clocks, highly OoO, highly speculative. They needed an ISA to enable that, which ARM provided.

> M1 performance is not so because of the ARM ISA, the ARM ISA is so because of Apple core performance plans a decade ago.

> > ARMv8 is not arm64 (AArch64). The advantages over arm (AArch32) are huge. Arm is a nightmare of dependencies, almost every instruction can affect flow control, and must be executed and then dumped if its precondition is not met. Arm64 is made for reordering.
I remember they showed some auditor's attestations, but they're not releasing the details of the audit, just the conclusion.
Tertiary sources (e.g. encyclopedias) are inherently this way regardless of whether or not it is editable by nearly anyone. One of the strengths in Wikipedia is crowd sourcing and a strong editorial culture that, for example, enforces citing sources and giving unbiased takes, with mechanisms to mark problems with articles rather than deleting them. This ultimately leads to a degree of editorial transparency that is unmet by any other type of source of this kind.
1) There are a number of publicly-traded crypto-centric companies, such as Coinbase, Riot Blockchain, Marathon Digital Holdings, and MicroStrategy. Although not part of any major index, investment firms that are undoubtedly have significant exposure to them.

2) There are plenty of crypto ETFs, such as GBTC and BITO, where selloffs there could cause liquidations elsewhere.

3) Major companies themselves now have significant crypto holdings. The most famous being Tesla, but investment banks have been piling into it over the past year. SPY's own State Street announced a 425-man team to head a new division last June.
It's certainly the best bias to suffer from as it means your project succeeded. It does mean people should take your advice with a grain of salt.
Imagine if a Prius or Tesla instead had as much noise/HP as a conventional vacuum cleaner.
You're right. It will be a disaster. There will be millions of overnight refugees in parts of the state and in other states. The traffic jams will be tens of miles long on every highway.
> I cannot see why anyone would prefer this for a bicycle that is at all shaped like a normal bike.

There are already e-bikes out there with a design that puts a motor into the bottom bracket; so there are already frames for this.

That's probably what is being targeted.

In the absence of such frame designs existing already, this idea would be hard to pitch. The path already seems paved though.

We have e-bikes with bottom bracket motors, which assist the pedals, and drive a chain. We also have bike wheel designs with a hub motor that can retrofit into ordinary bikes.

This looks like it just combines the two: take a bike which has a bottom bracket motor, and replace the motor with a pure generator. Scrap the chain and sprockets, and just deliver electricity to a hub motor.

Chains and sprockets get dirty and require cleaning, except in fully-closed systems that require a complicated transmission. Chains can slip and break. Chains wear out and require replacement, usually together with the rear sprockets. Front rings wear also; about once every three times you change a rear sprocket, you have to change the front rings which, for entry level bikes is usually most cheaply done by getting the entire crank set.

Typically, a multi-speed rear cassette must be removed in order to replace a broken spoke, which is a PITA. This is because it is larger than the hub, and is right next to it, blocking access to the spoke entry holes on the drive side. You need chain whip to prevent the hub from turning, while you apply a wrench to a special lock ring tool, using a great deal of force. From the looks of most wheel builds with a hub motor, it looks like the spokes are easily accessible without removing any difficult part from the wheel: just get the wheel out of the bike.

Internal gears alleviate some of the issues with chains. Without a derailleur system, chains can be encased to protect them from the elements. An electric transmission is going to be more efficient and quieter than internal gears, though, and require no maintenance.
This is unreasonable generalization. Dark skin does have direct impact on image processing. Nothing like this exists in hiring.
Yeah, those old grid systems make table layout look great in comparison.
Blockbust failed to innovate, but they were certainly a success of the time.

I find it odd that we expect everything to be a sustained success. Society progresses. Our needs change.

As in "fruits of one's labor"? That's how I took it.
I don't disagree with the article. Within a tech company, it's obvious why they value engineers. In a "staff" you might also be highly valued or you might not be. As an example, I've recently noticed that home depot has a superb website. Looking at the quality of it, they've obviously put a lot of thought and resources into it. It's something they value. The people working on it might be in the "staff" bucket, but I'd bet the C-Suite is well aware of the impact they are having. On the other hand, I've seen companies where the "staff" engineers are completely disregarded.
Have you met Andy Jassy? I have, and can say that the guy is a complete boss. I have no hesitation in saying that he would certainly create that much value. The idea that you can just get someone else to do what he does is patently ridiculous. That's like saying "Why should we pay for Lebron? My cousin is pretty good at basketball and would be a lot cheaper".

Secondly why do you think he isn't actually producing/outputting anything? Just because you may not understand what a CEO does, doesn't mean he doesn't do anything. The guy certainly produces outcomes (after all, he grew AWS into a billion-revenue company faster than anyone else has ever accomplished that task as one simple example).

Finally, the guy is already a billionaire because he's been with Jeff Bezos since the very early days of Amazon. If you want to retain someone like that the compensation is going to be high.
> what I am afraid mostly is all the tax/money/stuff

You shouldn't be afraid, you should pay a professional CPA and/or tax accountant to take care of all of that stuff for you.

You wouldn't draft your own legal documents (I hope), correct? It's no different on the money side of things.
> was a very strange feeling to receive that completely untaxed,

Well thats the absurdity of the German tax system.

People which do not have much don't pay much taxes (lower %cut).

People who are more wealthy then that pay a lot of taxes (max %cut).

People who are even more wealthy again much less taxes (still max %cut, but docents of ways to circumvent taxes, and "safely" launder money e.g. by going through art collections, buildings etc.).

Here it is ladies and gentleman. Portuguese people love bashing Americans. They have a really narrow minded idea of what an American is, and that's that ("Americans are fat", "Americans are stupid").

Portuguese people consider themselves worldly and educated, which is ironic because for the most part they tend to be extremely provincial. I bet you that the average Californian has tried more foods than the average Portuguese person even knows exist. They don't know much food-wise, that's why they think that salted codfish and cabbage is great food, like someone else mentioned.

Source: I was born in Portugal, lived most of my life in Portugal, now moved to the US because Portugal isn't great. Pay is low, services are atrocious, food is hit and miss (but limited in variety), and people are narrow-minded.
Yes, good example.
Are these kind of comments for real?

Are you claiming he will get this award every year?

He doesn't "just have to wait". He has to WORK for 10 years or meet other requirements for vesting.

If this was a european style 10 year option package, sure, he could retire and just wait to excercise, that's not what these are.
It looks like you're avoiding answering the question related to follow up steps where a customer pays for a thing, and the money gets to me.
The applications where additional batteries are not preferable to this complicated system are vanishingly slim IMO. I've seen this proposed over the years over and over, with people designing similar systems, and i've always ended up disappointed in the objective performance characteristics of them.
We can, this was inspired by a talk given by Google about their own infrastructure. But it was apparently never open sourced.
Could be attributable to corruption inthe military. It all looks good on paper, so they went with it. They also failed to account for the spirit of the military, and the leaders seem to believe in some romanticized notion of greatness. Detached from real world.
Certainly much more firmly middle class than the GP comment's "at best" would imply.
That is not the implication. In the article they explain that the juvenile cowbirds spontaneously leave their brood host's nests at night and mingle with other cowbirds.

Northern climate bike commuter here. I am getting tired of commuting in the snow and rain. I want a 'winter bike' that is fully enclosed, allows me to use my bike lane to work, and get my exercise without being covered in sleet, rain, or snow when I get home.

When I was younger, the machismo of winter/rain commuting was a fun brag at parties. Now, when I look out the window after a long day at work. I want my exercise miles minus the macho.

This could help me get that winter bike.
As someone pointed out in another comment, "wealthy" does not mean "never having to work again". My life growing up would have been dramatically different if my parents had been worth even a low amount of millions, and the opportunities available to me would have been drastically higher.
Context switching costs are slightly higher for OS threads, but the real bottleneck is in the physical memory usage. An OS thread will start with an entire 4kb (page size on most OSs) for its stack and grow by 4kb as needed. A virtual thread will often have <1kb physical memory used, to start.

In a program with lots of small OS threads, that's quite a bit of wasted space.
I can't, but I can very well imagine any USA president carry the assassination of foreign leaders through the CIA. Actually no need to imagine as it's history, more and less recent.
If a non-hired employee brings a criminal action, this may matter.

For a civil action, the burden of proof is "preponderance of evidence," which is a much lower standard than "beyond a reasonable doubt." "Maybe the weights are different now" is a reasonable doubt, but in a civil case the plaintiff could respond "Can the defendant prove the weights are different? For that matter, can the defendant even explain to this court how this machine works? How can the defendant know this machine doesn't just dress up discrimination with numbers?" And then it's a bad day for the defendant to the tune of a pile of money if they don't understand the machine they use.
It's actually the other way around- California is being turned into a desert by water transportation projects.

Not in Germany. If you hold your gold bars for longer than a year and you sell'em -- no taxes. German capital gains tax applies to stock and derivates (i.e. papers) but not to commodities (physical things like gold, cars or other hardware). So even while cryptos are non-physical they are treated like physical items. And that kind of makes sense if you believe Bitcoin is like digital gold. However, there will be a dispute at some point I guess when it comes to typical government tokens because they resemble very much a stock shares with voting rights.
