The original paper on compressed instructions claims 25-30% reduction in total instruction size. A typical small M0 microcontroller will have something like 4-32kb of RAM and 32kb to 1MB of flash storage.

No matter how you slice it, saving 30% of your instruction space is a HUGE deal. Even with EEPROM (usually used for flash memory) taking just 2 transistors per bit, we're still talking about compressed instructions taking up 200 bits, 40 bytes, or just TEN 32-bit instructions in your flash memory.

With that 30% optimistic number, any program with more than 30 instructions will have a net benefit from compressed instructions. Even my very pessimistic 10% number would mean just 100 instructions before you break even.
If you have a sufficiently well defined solution to a problem, then you have the code. The next step is just to compile it into something a machine understands. In other words, the code IS the solution, there is no difference between the two.
> it just needs to filter out verbatim exact snippets so it only outputs original, unattributable code.

That's a setting now.
Not in this case. The person who drills down into his settings to REALLY turn something off really wants to turn it off. So Apple should respect that, and treat the control-panel on/off as persistent in that case.

That would serve everyone's preferences and reasons: People who only turn the stuff off from the control panel would get the temporary behavior of those controls. People who turn them off at the system level would get the persistent behavior.

Does it even cost two full seconds? I put the lid down as I stand and turn to press the flush. Not only is it more sanity, but every time I drop something in the bathroom and have it bounce off the toilet lid I'm happy it's not in the bowl.

It's fairly common to go from O-1 to a Green Card.
I wonder, just speaking blindly, how many emerging artists were able to utilize blockchain technologies to reach a market they wouldn't have.

I never took part in the NFT wave. It was, of course, a tulip bubble, it married high-tech and artist in the most horrible way possible. Tsk tsk tsk.

Exploration, browsing, search and discovery are powerful things.
this notion that you need to fail seems wrong. Facebook, Microsoft, google never came close to failing and never had big failures yet still had innovations.
I honestly can't see any better way than this. The disparity stems from sex. Biological, real, physical, genetic sex. This is the difference, and this is what the categories are, in recognition of the difference. Humans are a binary sex species, and the males are stronger. We realized this many many years ago, and understood that in order for women to be able to compete in any sport at all, they need to not compete against men. Transsexuals do not have biological, real, physical, genetic claim to being women. They just feel like women. Sorry, but physical development doesn't care about your feelings.

Transsexuals, I understand you want very much to compete in the womens' section, but you are not women, and so you cannot fairly compete with them for the same reasons that men cannot compete with them. I understand this is an upsetting problem for you, but your desires do not overrule the entirety of female competitive integrity. If you went through puberty as a male, tough luck, you cannot compete against women anymore. Just as I cannot compete in the Special Olympics intellectual disability sports because I went through full normal brain development, you cannot compete against women, because you went through male hormonal development.

Obviously the French are quite a lot poorer than the US, if that's where you're coming from, so values for things like repairability are going to be different.
The article is about whether or not human learning is powered by a simple, understandable process. Your response is: “No, human learning is like the climate, it’s complex.” I’m just pointing out what a nonsensical statement that is. The article offers evidence about how synapses work. What is your analogy, exactly? Usually an analogy has some points of comparison that help illustrate a topic. E.g. chess is like war. There are two sides in both war and chess, both war and chess require anticipating your opponents moves etc. Therefore, you can make the argument that you can understand something about war through understanding chess. I’m really failing to see how the climate helps us understand the brain. Other than your claim that both are beyond comprehension.
Tito was a dictator with all what that means, but he remains popular in large parts of former Yugoslavia. The main exception being the Albanians.

Anecdata: I remember a poll where something like 4/5 of the Serbians asked considered life better under Tito than life in 2010: https://balkaninsight.com/2010/12/24/for-simon-poll-serbians...
Thank you for the link. And there is no reason to apologize. You are not incorrect in your interpretation. I subscribe to LTT on YouTube, but it's for entertainment.
Interesting to hear your experience. I've been using it for over a year, and I've come to appreciate the (modest) productivity boost that it's given me, to the point that I feel $10 per month is probably worth it.

The completions are often trivial, but they save me from typing them by hand. Sometimes they are trivial yet still wrong so I need to make corrections, wasting some of the gained speed. In total these probably won't save me much time on a day.

However, every couple of days there is one of these cases, where it can do tedious work that really saves time and headaches.

Example:
- After writing a Mapper that converts objects of type A to B, I needed the reverse. Co-Pilot generated it almost perfectly in an instant. This can easily save a minute or two, plus the thinking required.
- For a scraper, I needed to add cookies from my browser into the request object. Basically, I pasted the cookie in a string, and typed `// add cookies`, and it generated the code to split the string, iterate over each cookie value and add it to the correct request field.

So if a few of these cases can save 10 minutes in a month, I feel it's objectively worth it. Then subjectively, not having the headaches of 'dumb stuff'/boilerplate feels great, and I am glad to spend my energy on the actual hard stuff. I will sign up as soon as their sign up page lets me.
Another car in a similar category is the electric Smart, the only problem is the price.
There's nothing wrong with walking, tai chi, and yoga but they're insufficient to build and maintain muscle mass for the elderly (or really even younger people). They need some resistance training as well. Muscle isolation exercises can cause imbalances if you don't know what you're doing which is why most people are better off doing compound functional movements.

The other issue is that digestive systems become less effective at extracting protein as we age. So many elderly people ought to increase their protein intake to prevent muscle atrophy.
I’m sorry, but most of this is gibberish to me.

How did you learn about all this? Would you be kind enough to go into more depth? I’m curious.

Your comments also gave me my daily reminder of how little I know (in the best way)
20+ years of hard work by the Wine team has paid off!
I speculate a lot of people (in the US) don't eat particularly well.

i.e. the lack of fruit/veg/nuts/legumes/fiber and the amount of fat/sugar/salt/carbs/indirect-crazy-chemicals in food.

My main concern is that when I get "old" I have "X" becz I didn't eat enough "Y". e.g. eat things and potentially take something to help/avoid glaucoma.

At worst (if I'm not stupid) I have expensive urine. With a bit of luck I've reduced my chances of getting cancer/heart-disease/stroke by a few points.
Does anybody else think the second image with the colors is clearly photoshopped? There's glare on the windshields even though they're in the shade, and all the cars are in perfect focus even though they span a decent depth.
Certainly. Define 'Modern Society'.

But there would be lots of provisos, as not all facets of modern 2022 life could be duplicated. For instance, the number of humans would be reduced to small fraction of today's numbers. That would preclude having airlines due to the large proportion of the total human population that would be taken up by airlines alone. Take that number away from the farming community and even less people would be available to grow and harvest food.

In truth, modern society has economies of scale that can't be duplicated by using human power alone. So the answer to the question is 'Definitely Not!'.

> College is not synonymous with education

Right, that’s my question to you, what exactly are you referring to when you say you’re anti college: the cost or the education?

What’s the evidence for college being a large net negative? Are you talking about the US only, or are you including, say, Norway too? (Are you actually anti college, or anti current US education funding?)

What do you mean is it needed/desirable? Are you suggesting that education alone is a bad thing, or that well rounded (non-vocational) education is bad for society, that people would be better off not taking math / writing / history? Is vocational job training unnecessary? Any reason to think it would be equally effective if corporations did it privately, or that it would cost less all else being equal?

Currently, the training plus credentialing yields 2x earnings in the US above non college graduates. Whether good or bad, the result is more money moving to society. There is no clear financial net negative, in fact the current financial benefit to society is so large that it’s obvious the US govt could fully fund college education for all on the increased tax revenue alone, and still have multiples more than that to spare. I don’t yet see your argument at all.
I could run my 38 year old Macintosh off solar panels if I wanted to.

In contrast, I'm not aware of any currently-produced computers made from completely-recycled materials, so any new hardware you buy will have components made of materials dug out of the earth & processed.
What about some kind of "spotlight" search?

Imagine you press a keyboard chord to pull up a virtual search bar, then type "APU bleed on" and a virtual hand reaches out and does the action.

I have been recently diagnosed with anxiety disorder. I didn’t believe I was stressed or that I was a nervous person, I don’t have schizophrenia or any TOC, but I definitely do have anxiety disorders.

Is there anything bothering you? For me, I don’t have any recurring thoughts, but muscle twitching is very intense and stressful, especially when trying to sleep. I am taking benzodiazepines now, and it seems to be helping massively, but it is up for the doctor to decide this.
> When I look at the ecosystem of JavaScript it’s frightening to see how little coders care compared to Go or Kotlin ...

I don't know about care but there is a clear difference between people with a computer science or formal programming background and most developers. You can bemoan that, but isn't it desirable that there be a democratization of development? In fact the number of simplifying tools and packages built by programmers to speed everyone up inevitably decreases barriers to doing development, and in many cases improves the quality by managing the harder stuff properly.

We had the same phenomenon a generation or more ago with Visicalc and Excel, where people who would never think of themselves as programmers wrote complex macros to get their jobs done.

And a decade before that we famously had secretaries writing EMACS macros who certainly never thought of themselves as programmers.

I think this is all a good thing, even if I am dubious about my bank's phone app.
The amyloid hypothesis is such utter bullshit, at this point there have been empirically effective anti-amyloid plaque drugs. That is drugs that effectively and measurably reduce amyloid plaque build up. None of those drugs have impacted Alzheimers symptoms in any way.

If you have a hypothesis of the cause of a disease, and you create drugs that effectively treat it, and those drugs don’t effect the disease symptoms or progression you need to accept the hypothesis is wrong.
I’m not surprised because it’s easy to be such a highly valued company when you’ve cut a hell of a lot of corners!
Personally I got the sense that the Go community doesn't really care for web apps or anything too close to React, but maybe I'm just not experienced enough yet with Go. Is there something like CreateRustApp but with Go?

> sometimes they emphasize visuals and cool effects (like 3d cockpits) at the expense of making the planes fun and practical to fly from a normal computer setup

They don't really emphasize visuals. Even with X-Plane 12, the graphics will still be far behind those of Microsoft Flight Simulator. Thankfully they will be overhauling the graphics for trees, which currently look like something from the 90's. [0]

> it has gotten less and less enjoyable to fly xplane with that kind of a setup because of the emphasis on making it look cool over making it behave realistically

As others have said, you might be better served by Microsoft Flight Simulator. It prioritises approachability far more than X-Plane does, and isn't going for the professional/approved flight simulation market.

> (I don't consider having to click a graphic of a physical switch on the screen with my mouse more realistic than hitting a key on my keyboard). You can fix some of it with key mappings, but it's clear that this experience is not the priority.

I'd be very surprised if it weren't possible to map the button to a key, provided you have enough keys on your keyboard that aren't already bound.

Toilet seat tends to be hard plastic material. I have never found a toilet that was pleasant to sit on for more than a few minutes. There is padding but that doesn't help too much. Squat toilet is ideal but requires holding squat position for many minutes.
Interestingly Ljubljana is on my shortlist of livable cities. I didn't mention it in my original comment but car-dependent suburban design patterns also increase isolation, I think. When I lived in a flat in the middle of Dublin I became friends with several of my neighbours. Where I am now (which is admittedly countryside, not suburban) not so much.
Or, in many cases, you could view it as mollycoddling and encouraging hysteria and NIMBYism.

It doesn't have to be interesting, but the endless repetition of the same caterwauling need not be fawned over and encouraged.
There are other issues other than just the heat of power lines. The earth itself has effects of the electromagnetic waves on the wire, burying the lines changes the capacitance of the system. This means there are a lot of other design considerations to the whole system that need to be accounted for and handled other than just burying the cables in the ground.

You're then also massively increasing the cost of the cable. The overhead lines use the ground as the ground while buried cables need sheathing. You're also then increasing cost from all the insulators and protecting of the cable to bury it compared to just having the wire exposed.

Things aren't too challenging when you're only talking a few kV, but once you're dealing with 35kV+ transmission lines things start getting complicated and messy.
> they can’t just tell private companies to eat the losses

Sure they can. The poor widdle loan sharks might not like that, but tough shit.
> There's no reason why a teacher needs to discuss sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, etc. with kindergartens, be that heterosexual or homosexual.

How do you explain the use of English personal pronouns without referencing sex or gender identity? I mean, I know the that the right is perfomatively “anti-pronoun”, but unless they've decided to exclude them entirely from education...

The same issue exists with traditional honorifics (Mr./Mrs./Miss/etc.); with those you can probably get away with “it was what it is” for specific individuals as a baseline, but are teachers really expect to defer questions about them till later grades?

(It's also very hard to to discuss anything about families, actual or fictional, without, in fact, talking about sexual orientation, and while the bill is superficially written neutrally, it's very clear that the intent is to resolve all these issues of perfectly common childhood things that would become impossible to discuss if it were enforced as written by simply by ignoring then as long as the orientations and identities at issue are heterosexual and cisgender.)
isn't making it paid service will greatly limit its training data in the long run?
am I thinking too narrow here?
Ha I don't think it's totally that, but it may well be part of it!

I think the biggest thing is that when working in tech I'm unfamiliar with it's extremely helpful to get some sort of skeleton in place, even if it's wrong in some way. I'm going to have to go slowly and evaluate it either way, so doesn't really matter if it's got problems or is less than ideal. What I would do otherwise is just go copy something from StackOveflow and then comb over it to adapt to my needs. Copilot is more or less just doing the same thing, but faster.

When I'm working in a stack I know well, I can quickly put down the code I need and it will generally be pretty good. Copilot can do it faster, but it gets things wrong a lot more often than I do. Since fixing something wrong is a LOT slower than me getting it right the first time, it ends up being more trouble than it's worth.
I'm not sure if it's actually required by law, but usual retailers have been communicating a lot on this in the last year. Most of them display a sticker in their stores, but the score is also prominently shown on their websites[0][1]. I'm really not surprised that a lot of people willing to buy something noticed the repairability score, because it's near impossible to miss it.

Yup.

I've dealt with the fallout from 'disorganized' power failures in datacenters before. I don't know exactly what goes on, but I know that a notable but relatively small fraction of our servers had real deal hardware problems after, many not booting up at all. Many fried power supplies, many cooked batteries.
On the other hand I love his writing. The passion for his topic and knowledge really oozes out of his words. AMAZING ;)
hm, i’ve read blue light/screen time can mess with a persons sleep schedule (especially right before bed). And exercise is good, but you have to truly get a good sweat in. What’s it you’re doing while staying up till 3am, reading helps too! Something to tire the body and mind out is best! a good nightly routine so the body knows bed time is approaching :).
You would never get the money with this plan.

One might wonder if a similar thing had been happening with low carb / keto diet research. Being adopted as a fad diet has overwhelmed the constant scorn from the nutrition community.
As a productivity booster I think it’s worth more than $10.

The licensing problems make it impossible to use at work so I won’t use it for that.

People need to be aware of the security risks of letting microsoft read all your code as it’s sent to the servers copilot runs on. By my lights that’s almost as big of a problem as licensing.

That's perhaps the single most idiotic conclusion one could possibly make from this story.
Not exactly "concrete shells" - you have windows, you have basic plumbing, central heating, electricity, even cable TV and internet cables already installed, and you have all walls painted in white. Everything else you have to do yourself. All newly built apartments in Poland are like this, because that gives the new owner the opportunity to redecorate the apartment to their liking.
To reword your question: "Why would you -- in the short few years of life you were given on this planet -- want to experience pleasure?"
I turned off copilot a week ago for the same reason. The code it generates _looks_ right but is usually wrong in really difficult to spot ways but things you’d never write yourself.
I've read that as a sarcastic comment on the attitude of Casanova that could have placed him in a situation like that.
I know it only applies to relatively few people, but I was surprised there's no mention of Irish people in the visa section.

Have you tried building in a rpi virtual machine on a Mac? I have no idea what the performance would look like, but it’d be easy enough to try, especially since you are already managing your own max builders.

I want to say I followed these instructions for doing so recently:

It's too unwieldy to change all vehicles in one day.

Much better to do the change over several days. So trucks would change over on day one, followed by buses on day two and all cars on day three.
I suspect they'd have more revenue if they priced it at $100/user/month.

Right now, there is no competition, and an amateur developer will really benefit from copilot - certainly they will be more productive than a developer that demands just $1000 more annual salary.
This is not accurate, I just had a kid graduate from Dartmouth a couple of years ago and my wife and I make right around $150k combined with her working part time. We paid around $35,000/year, so Dartmouth covered about half of tuition costs. We did also take advantage of the federal student loans, it seems reasonable for the kids to have a little skin in the game as well.
Okay? You wanna explain or just be a dickhead?
Would you mind sharing which site that is?
