Why would anyone want that? If I’m going to go so much as 15 minutes out of my way, I expect to leave with the item in my hand that day. That’s the killer advantage for brick and mortar retail.

I don’t even want to go to the store the first time, but I sure as hell don’t want to go twice if Amazon offers the same overall latency with zero trips to the store.
Yes, a team of professional composers who call themselves "producers" who will "make suggestions" for how to change your songs from having potential, to being actually high quality music.
Single employee is nothing. Union of employees can grind the company to the halt and needs to be negotiated with.

Unions popped up around 19th century in Europe, when unregulated capitalism was the policy of the day with consequences like working 16 hours a day, 6 days a week for meager pay in dangerous environment able to maul you or crush you when you done smallest mistake.

Same like pain is a response to damage of your body, union is response to abusing your employees.

I'm not sure this is true. The aliasing model of unsafe Rust seems much more difficult to write correct code for than these other aliasing models.
Coming from gaming industry i think you might want to measure how far you can go with a single threaded rendering. There is limit of content and code that can be a brick wall later.
Here is an example from SIGGRAPH 2021 where Activision presents how multithreaded rendering looks like: https://youtu.be/9ublsQNbv6I

In Sweden, at the high school I went to, we had pay phones which would behave as if you had inserted a coin if you zapped it with static electricity. We used this for a while to make prank calls to other countries. Typically to random numbers we just tried, sometimes in the middle of the night in the other country.
Smaller attack surface internally, for sure. I also assume internal networks are hostile, not just from internal threats, but from external lateral movement.
Generics as a feature is almost invisible when it exists and is done well, but is a huge pain in the ass if it doesn't. It is mostly needed for libraries, so your average dev won't write them often, but there it is invaluable.
Are you talking about those with brushless motors? The other kind, geared motors, should not impede anything when offline if I understand correctly. Then you just have a heavy bike, which is a problem in a hilly city but not so much in a flat city.

> Moreover, a lot of the libraries in rust needs you to understand the type system thoroughly sometimes to use them, and some of them use the typesystem to enforce some specific behavior (without telling you :-)). For example, the logger mechanism in rust makes it very hard to dynamically change the logger implementation at run time but it doesn't explain why (in the end, I think it has to do with thread safety, but I'm not sure).

Mainly because logger is a static value, if you really want to change your logger at runtime, then you have to pay a little bit for synchronization (i.e. locking with mutex), other than that, it's not that hard.
Okay I have some things to say about this.

First, and I really want this to be the first: thanks to the author for using colour-blind friendly colours for the figures. This is something a lot of people miss when doing papers and it's really troubling.

Second, although the highest losers would be the UK and the US it is worth pointing out that the USA would be affected by three times as much as the UK. I wonder if there isn't a better way to convey that information.

Third, and I think is this is very interesting, why aren't we seeing oil producing countries in the OPEC+ reflected in this? The reason is not evident from the images posted but is explained in the article:

> Low-cost Middle Eastern producers (Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iran) display comparatively modest losses of less than US$50 billion because their production sites remain profitable and they engage in sell-off behaviour.

It is also mentioned that producing countries export their losses to OECD countries. Countries like the UK are massively invested from a financial perspective, without really bearing any of the consequences of extraction.

Another finally another interesting point:

> At stage 4, governments directly own (including via pension funds) losses of US$484 billion (34%), most of which originate in non-OECD countries. Private persons thus own over half the losses.

Who is making these decisions?

All in all, it shows how OECD countries and big finance has a massive interest in the current system of pollution to continue. It is quite a dire paper in that regard, because when it comes to money, nature has little chance. Oil companies, and probably the financial sector as well, have known for decades about the damage that this industry is causing and will cause the world but these financial incentives are so powerful... it's an addiction. To be honest, I don't think we are going to reach the 1.5 degree, not even 2 degrees, mark. It's sad, and what can I do as an everyday joe? Voting? What a joke.

Common sense is very uncommon :-).

E-commerce stores are not easy as business, but very easy to launch today because technology is the easiest part of it. The biggest difficulty is getting traffic, then conversion to order, then with superior products, logistics and customer service retain the customer. No one can setup logistics, product catalogs, superior customer service from day 0, it takes quite a time and feedback loop. So remember in the grand scheme of ecommerce store for merchant time taken to build or launch a system is minuscule compared to other hard physical world problems they need to solve around products and services they are offering.

Today literally thousands of options are available to launch an ecommerce store with single click with better quality, speed, flexibility and control than shopify.

Shopify is just one another provider with walled gardens. Shopify is popular not due to any innovation in technology or quality or speed, its popular because it spend literally billions of dollars of investor money in marketing. So they succeeded by throwing marketing money, not due to innovative technology.
Fundamentally any feature request is just an engineering problem. Sometimes they're interesting, sometimes they're not. If you trust whoever makes these issues on your board (or whatever it is you use), why would it be demotivating? You know you're building stuff folks want, because making sure that's the case is what the person making those issues is trying to do.

If you can't trust your coworkers, every workplace is demotivating.

There is a difference between a known expense and a surprise one. If your employer's new decision is making you lose money, the terms should of course be renegotiated. There is certain finesse and unspoken rules in doing business, and the employers unwillingness to compensate for such a miniscule-in-comparison expense has poor optics. I simply think this shouldn't be a suit-worthy thing for Amazon.
I'm from the future. In a few years time, the EU and other large governments will have instituted Carbon tracking apps directly linked to bank account information which have been combined with CBDC's to directly tax you for spending on carbon emission heavy products. It will also limit that spending.

I don’t at all. Sometimes living “paycheck to paycheck” has its perks. Make sure to have enough money with the last check of the month to pay the mortgage, while having the largest 401k contribution you can manage. Without active investing or any real savings there doesn’t seem to be much benefit to calculating cash in vs cash out any more than my bank app does. If there’s something out there useful for my case let me know! I’m just not sure how much optimization can be done with this lifestyle.

It doesn't sound that reliable if you've had to replace that much already with just 100k miles.

I have two vehicles over 100k, one closing in on 200k soon, and my maintenance on both is less than 5k.

Of course, the part no one talks about:

1. How will you do a family vacation beyond the EV range?

2. Who pays to replace the ~$15k battery and when?
It's been ages since I last used VSCode but I do recall the C# debugger being nonfree, and only licensed for Visual Studio branded software (which would exclude your own builds of code). I also recall a post of someone being unable to use the Python extension because they had an 'unofficial build' of code. So unless things have changed a lot since I last used it, it would seem that the program itself is open source but some extensions that you sort of need in order to get on with your work are non-free.

Yeah, I bet apple just wants to discourage project managers and other deciders from using OpenGL and adopt their new thing.

In the end, those strategies will require more work from developers, and those developers become "locked" on apple. It's a shitty practice.
Not for system-level programming.
This doesn't address stack ranking and PIP. Any employment that intentionally puts your continued relation on a chopping block to keep you in a precarious situation isn't an ideal working condition, which now includes Google. I get the idea of trying to manage slack but the fact is, all humans need some slack in efficiency and improving labor efficiency indefinitely isn't realisitic nor is a culture most want to work in and it's caught up with AWS. At some point, you're simply doing your labor force a disservice and just sitting around cracking a whip for no good reason.
potentially. Any day now. Just over the horizon. Just like last year.
One question (please take in account that I am no more than a dabbler in this field) - you conclude your piece with ... the nature of the problem slowly changes over time and prediction quality deteriorates.

Isn't this a problem anyway, even with models based on much larger datasets?
> I honestly am not sure how to live without them at this point.

That's exactly why. I prefer not to have a workflow which depends on proprietary software. What are you going to do if MS breaks your workflow at some point in the future and you've become dependent on it?

Not that everyone has to do that, but it's totally possible to have a FOSS workflow, and I prefer to work that way.

I was specifically talking about the days of the founders of quantum mechanics or even the times of Teller et al.. Today professors are in fact not that incredibly paid anymore in Germany. Sure they still have reasonably high salaries but compared to junior developers they earn approximately the same. Regarding PhD students yes depending on field, you might get a half position, however I'm not aware that postdocs get low paid positions. Compared to the US differences between professor and PhD salaries are much lower AFAIK.
Maybe you should stop referring to workers as "heads," and, you know, treat employees like humans who have lives and stuff. That would probably go a long way toward attracting talent.
I think there's a confusion of terms, there's a big difference between 'deprecated' and 'obsolete'. They sure can be deprecated, which can be read as "not recommended for use and _may_ be removed in a future release", but that doesn't mean it has been removed/made obsolete.
As a Mac person, I can report that it still sucks. If I'm lucky, I'll get to play a AAA game, a year and a half after it's released on Windows.

All that sneering at Macs as "toy" computers is ridiculous. It's the worst gaming platform in the world. Linux is better.

I use a Mac because I need to get work done.

From my perspective as a software engineer there have been none.

That’s not true. Many other castes used to have their own thread ceremonies and wear it. In TN at least, I can think of the Chettiars and Nadars who did a 100 years ago, and who rid themselves of it after concerted efforts by the Justice Party.

Some Nairs wear it as well. Wearing the thread is not a “privilege” afforded to only Brahmins, although now in popular imagination it has become their identifier.

I really don't believe that this high-level low-level language thing is true. Sure, both C++ and Rust are incredibly expressive and cool languages but they want to give control for low-level details, yet make it very easy to ignore these for the most part. But there will sure come a time when you will have to (may not happen at first write, but will definitely happen at refactor, adding a new feature, etc). Managed languages make such refactors trivial, while C++ and Rust (even with its very advanced type system) make these harder due to you having to rearchitect the whole program from a memory model perspective. Sure, it can be trivial in many cases, but not always.

So all in all, I really don't think that the (long-running) productivity and maintainability of managed languages can be approached by these low-level langs. And that is fine, (thank God) not everything is a dumb CRUD web app, there are very real niches where that low-level detail is a necessity.
The environmental impact of Bitcoin is not any less real than the power consumption & CO2 emissions of an entire country.[1] Since limitless energy is obviously not yet here (and is very unlikely to become a reality in the short term), it is irresponsible to dismiss these concerns.

After fourteen years of running this experiment, Bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies) have not yet delivered a single real world application that would be beneficial to the society at large - as far as I know.

I can't help wondering if some of the advocates, who continue to defend these technologies, own themselves cryptocurrencies and have a personal profit motive in glorifying/hyping the technology - for example by hinting that cryptocurrencies would have solved "countless wars and atrocities of the past 100 years".

Governments decide incandescent bulbs aren’t an ok way to use electricity. Governments will soon decide combustion engine cars aren’t an allowed use of gasoline.

We can’t ban gasoline and electricity or tax it to oblivion because that’s a better way of reducing waste of electricity in incandescent bulbs.

It was probably one of the easiest purchasing decisions I ever made. I really don't understand the comments about this being expensive from HackerNews folks, who I assume use search quite a bit.

Just do some math, check how long you spend looking for stuff with google, dealing with SEO spam, unable to blacklist domains (and even if you do it client-side, you need to constantly keep updating your list), lost time due to not being easy to perform language-specific searches (with kagi, my other languages are a dropwdown away).

Then factor in the amount you spend frustrated with other more subjective things. One thing that bothers me is the political bias of the results (among other things), piracy censorship, etc, but for you it might be something else.

If I had to ask something from Kagi, though, is to be careful about this part from their FAQ:

> Some results from traditional sources will reflect biases

This concept of favouring "traditional sources" (authoritative sources in google language) is a major red flag for me. But I'm not sure this is what your FAQ means. If I noticed anything too overt like I do with google, I would drop kagi the second another alternative with the same search quality shows up.

Overall, thank you for building a great product and service. I am recommending kagi to everyone I know.
"should not have their critical needs outweighed for the mere convenience of the majority"

I *strongly* disagree here. A small subsection of the population should not be able to impose their self-percieved "needs" on the remaining 99%. You're the individuals who care about this, it's your responsibility to put in the necessary foot work.

It's incredibly arrogant and presumptuous to try and argue that any overwhelming minorities desires should be seen as needs and imposed upon everyone else and drawing a comparison to accessibility is disingenuous at best. You aren't literally unable to use an application because they don't spell out every bit of minutia regarding their telemetry, nor are you born with physical/mental disadvantages that somehow necessitate your privacy policy desires.

No one is preventing you from monitoring your own network activity, sandboxing your machine, using a VPN, or a multitude of other steps you can take to monitor and protect your privacy.
The OpenGL "driver" on the M1 (and on iOS) is just a wrapper around the Metal API, like MoltenVK is doing for Vulkan.
Maybe today. PoW is akin to a paper clip maximizer. The more value the network holds the more energy it needs to use. The cheaper the energy gets the more of it needs to use. So why not jut nip it in the bud?

> Being enrolled in a study should require prior informed consent.

It's right there in the License Agreement that you accept when you install VSCode. And unlike some other EULA's, it's close to the beginning of the document, easy to read, describes data usage and explains how to opt out of it. I honestly don't see what more can they do to get user consent.

You might argue that many users don't read License Agreement and I would agree with you concerns IF this condition was unexpected and/or malicious. In this case it is neither.

> Harvesting data without permission is just exploitation.

Exploitation is just a word. I could also call your usage of VSCode "exploitation" because you are exploiting the work of MS engineers.

What matters is whether it does any tangible harm or not. In my view it doesn't.

> Moreover, not everyone is like you.

That's why I added a caveat "unless you are very paranoid".

> This type of rhetoric is often used to dismiss accessibility concerns

I don't see what accessibility has to do with it.
I have absolutely no objection, all correct points.

One additional factor to consider is the time frame of regulation / market reactions: In some cases catastrophic short-term events may harm people. Even though market reactions would offer medium-term solutions, that may still be a case in favor of regulation.

But we're approaching a textbook-length argument here and I'm not really an expert on infrastructure regulation, so I'll leave it at this :)
