The further away it is, the more time light has spent traveling to us.

So, more distant means we are viewing events that happened further in the past.

We are (almost certainly) not at the center of the universe, but we are, by definition, at the center of our observable universe.
What I mean is basically like a delayed "pause" button that triggers once the currently playing song ends. It can be set during playback and doesn't affect any other playback setting or queued songs.

The alternative is either abruptly stopping playback or staring at the progress bar and waiting a couple minutes for the right moment to click a button. In other words, it's one of those simple but tedious things you'd want to automate.

I wish every standard player had this, but as far as I have seen that is not the case.
Rebuilding Cloudflare's developer documentation
“…in that order” is the full quote, and omitting that from the title really changes the point.

Ultimately if you don’t work on the first two, it isn’t enough to have the third. Persuasion is really important because you’re usually not working in a vacuum.
1. You're projecting all of that. You're even assuming the person you're talking to is not "successful" with no basis whatsoever.

2. You're misusing "sour grapes" -- you don't know what it means.

3. You're hyphenating "sour grapes" -- you don't know how it's spelled.

Right, they accounted for population change, as you can tell because we don't have daily blackouts. They did not account for extreme weather events that were outside prior models of weather possibilities.

This is quite distinct from, say, Texas's failure to respond to freezing events that were identical to the freezing events from a decade prior. The California blackouts were due to extreme events that had not been experienced. (In addition to failure of a large natural gas plant, IIRC, but the plan should take that into account too)
Naughty Dog developers did a talk at GDC 2015 where they explain how they parallelized their game engine.

>for example, you wanna update the text on the GUI that says how much gold the player has. you'll update the text after everything that could have influenced the gold this frame has updated (i.e. at the end of the frame).

Modern game engines are pipelined; you render the previous frame logic. In the talk aforementioned, they show a three stages deep pipeline looking like this

[FRAME] [FRAME+1] [FRAME+2]
----------------------------------------------
[LOGIC] [LOGIC+1] [LOGIC+2]
[RENDER LOGIC] [RENDER LOGIC+1]
[GPU RENDERING]

each stage is independent and doesn't require syncing. they call that "frame centric design".

My vanilla JS app is way smaller than your fat app. JS doesn't automatically mean massive frameworks and libraries. Just write vanilla from-scratch JS like I do and life is fun and happy.
In developing countries they have poor stoves at home which give of smoke/CO which is harmful aka indoor air pollution. A good easy way to prevents deaths/harm from these is to provide them with quality stoves. So depending on where you heard it, air pollution could mean these stoves which typical don't exist in the developed world
No my point is that it's culturally impossible to just grab someone's children and take them out for food. They're not out wandering on the streets like they are in the world that the writer comes from. It's not a matter of wealth or what not, it's just culturally wrong and impossible.

Modern societies try their best to make independence difficult if not impossible by encouraging rent-seekers and gatekeepers. There were the Walter Segal people trying to bring back something like this, especially for lower income people with more time and bicep than cash, but*

1) The animating principle of his simple construction designs was that they were based on off-the-shelf materials and the industry conventions on how they are sold, and could be built incrementally. Those designs turned out to be hard to insulate. Alternatives that were far better to insulate would require new designs, the materials were harder to find, and building codes are tuned to enforcing the exact kind of construction that we always do (and that the old designs were a variation of.) He also created this sort of drag and drop style of architecture based on standard material sizes enabling people to design their houses themselves, and all of that has to be thrown away with alternative materials. That gets rid of most of Walter Segal's material contribution, leaving only the spirit of self-building.

2) Houses in Segal developments ended up shooting up in value, so it ultimately didn't solve any problems. It's land value that's important anyway. The way to solve this would be to only self-build in undesirable areas or on your own land?

* in my humble opinion from research.

I don't really understand what you're on about.

I'm saying that houses in areas built in the 1920s have beautiful hundred-year old trees along the roads. Houses built in the 2020s have tiny saplings. I'm saying the former is nicer than the latter.

Not talking about building materials. Talking about the environment around the houses.
It's actually framework agnostic, but the popular players right now are the "Rails-esque" projects. Ruby, PHP, and Python all have robust adapters, with other maintainers providing ports of the protocol to a dozen other languages.

At the end of the day, Inertia is a standardized way to use your backend as a router in conjunction with a JS driven frontend.

This allows you to use server side features like session auth, job dispatches, and mostly normal form requests, without adding the complexity and duplication of a JS based router.
1. Running out of cash often implies changing direction because the plan that lead to the current state did not meet the timeline. Changing direction means that the some current job roles don't align with the future.

2. Even if the course remains the same, the organization can embody past decisions that are no longer relevant. For example, roles addressing earlier problems that are now sufficiently solved (with sufficiency in part determined by cash on hand).

3. Even if the course remains the same, a cash crunch can force hard decisions that were delayed by ample cash on hand. For example cutting objectively excess staff might have been avoided for its effect on moral. Running out of cash makes negative effects on moral a given.

Consider the effects on moral. Cutting salaries keeps all the negative effect on moral in the workplace. Cutting staff sends some of the negative moral effect out the door and there are fewer people to convince to stay.
Wouldn't that be Ubuntu's fault?

Speaking of which, there are some other things that Ubuntu does that get my blood pressure up, such as not having a reliable way to do truly unattended upgrades.
You are still buying into the assumption that this person is not "successful" just because they said luck is more important than these abilities.
Startup investors are warning of dark days ahead
The soot they filter out of the air is very visible when you change the filters (they turn from shining white to grey). Air pollution is one of the world’s leading risk factors for death https://ourworldindata.org/air-pollution#air-pollution-is-on... . Though that varies a lot from country to country, it is a problem you can strongly reduce with throwing a tiny bit of money on it.
The bricks called Nokia phones minus the software (except for the default ringtone) :)

When Nokia was struggling, the only bright spot for them was the Indian market. During that period they ran a series of Ads on Indian television with just some text and at the end of the Ad they use to play the ringtone. Every time that happened people use to search their pockets for their mobile phone :)

That was genius!
Deterministic games suffer from desync and issues with input limitations. It is true that war3 does this, but it has some serious drawbacks.

It also makes the client easier to cheat on and gives one player (the host) a preferential ping.

Most competitive FPS’s use server authoritative instead of replayable deterministic because of this.

If you want to see the limitations, head into the old war3 map editor forums and look up the hacks using automated clicks between placeholder variable units just to move a few bytes of data between clients so they can persist character stats between games.
We are not at this point yet. Recent work shows that more compute and more data let Transformers beat convnets on computer vision tasks. This is a lot more insightful than « more compute gets you a little further ».
Note that that example is for the city of Boulder.

Trying to do this at large levels ignores a bit of the differences in housing density and cost of housing in the area.

Would it be possible to build luxury housing in San Francisco and then some affordable housing in a different city or state?

While there is going to be fragmentation of regulations, a developer working in Boulder is working in Boulder. Building luxury housing there and then building housing in... Federal Heights or Alamosa doesn't help the affordable housing issue in Boulder.

Handling this at the city level (rather than state or federal) is likely the right spot.
Also not sustainable.
Why not just abolish parking minimums so that car-free neighborhoods are legal to build from the get-go?
I'm sort of baffled whether people saying this sort of stuff actually read ML papers. Because this is just overtly not true, this idea that the majority of papers do scaling and nothing else. There are tons of papers exploring creative ideas, even the one mentioned in the critique, and even the subset of papers that are primarily about scale typically involve meaningful scientific discovery.
I agree with you. I generally enjoy using systemd, but I wouldn't give Poettering very many points for PR.

I built pretty much the system you’re describing for my company (a stateless terraform alternative) and this scan that you cite as a negative happens in… 100ms in parallel? Roughly the same amount of time it would take to download a state file? Dunno about you but ensuring state is always accurate and in-sync is well worth the trade-off to me.
Ah! Thanks for that explanation, having it explained without having it surrounded by description of the other surrounding market shenanigans made it much easier to understand.

I'd give more than one uproot if I could :)
Right here with you on this, I can add ARM templates (in complete mode) to the list.

I might suggest the Serverless framework (no serverless needed) which lets you write CFTs in most formats you prefer, use variables (including pulling config from S3), provides the canned scripts you otherwise add, and so on.

I wish MS would unbreak it's plugin to Serverless to support full ARM.

As others have written, there is state in the CFT/ARM/etc. services via named deploys. As you note, that allows for the deletion of removed things (including things for which you've specified another name). That's great.

The challenge with Terraform state use is that it is often too tetchy about what it doesn't know about and often reacts by tearing down and rebuilding assets, causing unavailability and data loss. It was even observed doing this for an entire stack due to a transitory network failure at PayPal. I loved --auto-approve because I don't want to reintroduce human failure and friction into the mix but Terraform's models and dependency on "community or when we get to it" means it just isn't safe the way the native provisioning services are. As you note, alignment of incentives and all.

This presents a (relative) vulnerability to cheating. If every computer has the full game state but players aren’t supposed to be able to know some things there is the potential for hacks.

The most obvious version of this in StarCraft is maphacks that let you see through fog of war, although that’s far from the only thing.

Poker meets all the technical requirements here, but sending everyone the contents of all hands would be a disaster.

By "We are not keeping the same infrastructure," is that how you're characterizing reducing capacity but turning off existing plants?

I think we agree that decommissioning plants without viable replacements is, in fact, contributing to the energy supply problem.
I have found it trivial to block DoH/DoT public resolvers and I believe it would be trivial for an ISP to do it as well. My theory around why they don't is the customer support issues and potential negative PR. Adding to that, short of totalitarian regimes there really is not any incentive to block DoH. Totalitarian regimes can simply disable the internet or kick doors down if they think something is up. All other ISP's can still monitor what websites a person visits if they wish as server names in TLS handshakes are not encrypted. If anything DoH/DoT servers remove some load off the ISP's DNS resolvers.

In my opinion DoH does not really add much privacy and in reality just doubles the number of organizations that can monitor a persons traffic patterns. Now instead of Comcast it is Comcast and Cloudflare that can analyze ones behavior. This would be a major win for governments should have an agreement in place with a centralized DoH/DoT provider. Instead of aggregating hundreds of ISP logs and having to chase down all the new ISP's, they get everyone that is using any of the popular browsers all in one fell swoop.

One place DoH might make sense is in an organization such as a college campus or company that enable fascist firewall rules but have not yet blocked DoH/DoT. Or maybe non-technical parents using a consumer router to block content.
Good stuff. The author of the post has also previously made a defeat device that can fairly simply be installed in your purifier, which simply reports the filter to always be at 100%. Useful if you're in a place where the filter will last significantly longer than what Xiaomi thinks. I bought one and it works great, I can definitely recommend it.

Running LibreWolf on Windows 7 on an older machine, with ublock0 set to default-deny JS for performance reasons. I tried enabling Firefox Sync in about:preferences#librewolf, visiting the settings, and logging in again. This time I got further, when I logged in I got asked for 2FA, but it logged into accounts.firefox.com but not the browser.

When I restarted LibreWolf, a Tools -> Sign In option appeared, but https://accounts.firefox.com/signin?action=email&service=syn... asked for the password of a now-removed email (which is now neither a primary nor secondary email, why is it still in Firefox's servers?!) under the same account. Entering my password said that I should use my primary email again, and selecting "Use a different account", entering my email and password, and another 2FA did not sign into sync (Tools still says "Sign in", as did about:preferences#sync). Logging in a third time emailed me instead of asking for a 2FA code, but yet again did not sign into my browser.

This accounts.firefox.com bug scares me; it reminds me of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30169435. At this point, I think I'm going to delete and recreate my Firefox account to remove all traces of my old email.

EDIT: I tried deleting my Firefox account, but realized it would remove my Fenix addon collections too. I tried signing into addons.mozilla.org... and again saw my removed email on the login screen.
The high accuracy results are not always, well, accurate. Several times I've had an 85+ percent result then looked closer and gone "ah shit, the leaf pattern is wrong, these are alternating instead of side-by-side" or similar.
My data is the entirety of human existence haha. Have you never worked on an old radiator, boiler, car, hot water heater...
It wasn't claimed to be.
TCP forces sequencing across all packets, SCTP is a bit closer.
I used box fan filter setup to get through a couple of CA wildfire seasons, but they're loud and take lots of room. I used 4" filters in a triangle with the fan as the base. This setup is far more effective than a single filter because it makes the fan work better with some air space behind it.

These days, I have a BlueAir 211 in each room. It's the same idea, just professionally made, it's not an eyesore, and it's quiet. Going by my AQI meter, they're also more effective.
Prepare to be shocked.
Sure but notably car water cooling, as robust as it is, does eventually spring leaks.

I think it's a question of whether the efficiency tradeoff is worth the maintenance tradeoff (which we probably won't know since there's not a ton of these kinds of solutions in use). With air cooling it's easier since the entire medium around the servers is the fluid. With liquid cooling, short of doing a bath setup (which doesn't appear to be what's proposed here) I'm not convinced it's going to work well; Just imagine 2-4 pipes running to every 2U server on a rack.

IMO, we shouldn't be against trying an idea again if it seems like on paper it could make a lot of sense. There's a lot to like about the potential of this solution; improved efficiency, density, etc. Heck, you might even make a fun side project of trying to reclaim that waste heat and turn it into electrical generation.

I just think the plumbing alone is likely to make it cost ineffective compared to existing air systems and then add quite a bit of potential maintenance headache.
You are the oldest thing in the universe you can observe. Even the person next to you, as you observe her or him, is younger, because the speed of light is finite.

In this respect, you are the centre of your universe. But objectively speaking, there is no centre.
Expectations have also just shifted with respect to things like air conditioning. I live in a very old house and, while I do put a window unit in my office, my brother could never understand me not having central air in Massachusetts.

He did just rebuild a house after a fire and put all the latest gadgetry and controls in. The heat pump seems nice but mostly I find there's a lot of complexity and not a lot that offers significant advantages relative to my house.
When the fires were raging, I was looking at all the areas air quality from purple air monitors and some areas near folsom California were at ~700

Oh, no! Where did you get that? I'm heartily in favor of opinions, I have many, not all of them generally acceptable. Perhaps the following opinions will inform you.

Bloomberg is giving a huge amount of credence to a very unlearned, off-the-cuff opinion, apparently just because Musk has money. Money does not equal smarts. Money does not equal worth printing. Bloomberg made a mistake publicizing this Musk opinion. "Freedom of speech", which I gladly admit that Bloomberg is exercising, does not mean "freedom from critique" or even "freedom from consequences". Bloomberg kissing ass on big money makes a lot of their other reporting suspect.
It does require more memory for tracking objects as well as storing objects longer than they are strictly necessary. So I would argue that manual memory management is most useful when there are memory constraints. But yes, GCd systems can yield more throughput. They are also easier to work with IMO.
This thing looks pretty amazing. Would be a great addition (with accessories) to lifeboats.

Wonder how pricey it will be when commercialized?
I agree in general, liquid cooling loops are a lot of work for usually very little benefit for average users. Even for people who need to put a couple of GPUs together, it turns out that mining rig frames with 16x extenders are pretty effective, since unlike a datacenter, you don't really need to optimize for density.

But, I think CPU AIOs are the one exception since giant heatsinks often interfere with other parts (overhanging ram slots or the first M.2 slot) and add a lot of weight to be hanging off the motherboard.
He's talking about trees, not lumber. A nice healthy mature oak in the backyard is a thousand times nicer than a scrawny sapling that might give you shade in 20 years if it survives that long.

The flipside is that sometimes the mature tree isn't healthy, and remediation of a large and dying tree can be tricky and expensive.
The universe has no center.

All places are equally old.

So a galaxy a billion light years away is as old as ours. But we see it as it was 1 billion years ago.
> If you can comfortably decide...

I would caution against assuming that such decisions are comfortable. I've never seen that be an easy decision, and even my most sociopathic boss would struggle with having to take such steps.

I do wish that such events would be more transparent, though. I've seen it happen where they fired the people who loved the place enough to fight through the troubles, while keeping the people who would have been just as happy to leave. A little bit of transparency and communication could match things up better and keep morale higher.

Ooooh this is like that

for {
a[i] = something;
b[i] = something;
c[i] = a[i] + b[i]; // can only do a and b at the same time because c depends on them
}

// handle a[0],b[0]
for {
a[i] = something;
b[i] = something;
c[i-1] = a[i-1] + b[i-1]; // can do all 3 at the same time because no deps.
}

// handle c[last]

optimization I saw in a talk about how CPUs can do many instructions at once if they don't depend on each other.

I was unaware of how something like this could play into game engines at the loop level, thanks for the link I'll watch it asap.
