3D engines are still extremely limited by single thread performance, at least if you want fast refresh rates.

That's the case for VR were Valve as shown with their headset that 120Hz, and even 144Hz, is a huge comfort and presence improvement over the 90fps standard (or even 72 on Oculus Quest 2) from the rest of the industry.

Hitting the 144fps mark, means a CPU fast enough to consistently clear the main loop, while leaving enough time for rendering (!), in a shared <7ms time budget.

Creation is cool in VR, I've had a lot of fun in tilt brush. Apparently there are ways to be productive building in VR from 3D engines too. Some even try coding even though the resolution is still extremely insufficient.
Meta promises that most work, solitary or collaborative will eventually be better done in VR/AR.

However, while I love VR, I sure won't be spending much time suffering at low FPS.

We're far from not needing faster CPUs anytime soon, there are not enough John Carmack and Michael Abrash able and willing to optimise the shit out of every routine in assembly.

The end of Dennard Scaling is a tragedy.

Copilot is fair use, get over it!

Copilot is not writing your code any more that Google search is writing your code. You are writing your code, and Copilot is just making suggestions.

I guess. But anecdotally, I learned JavaScript, read philosophical text, organize my goals, play games with my children, go for walks outside…while consuming a moderate amount of thc. My creativity goes up. Rarely do I just sit and do nothing but sometimes that’s fine too. Moderation works.
I agree being stoned all the time can have bad effects. Similar to video games, TV, instagram, or going out, if you do it too much then you might look up after a while and realize that you haven't developed as many deep skills or relationships as your peers.

However, I've gotten stoned almost every night for the past ~15 years and I think it's been pretty positive. I actually get a low-level pleasant and productive anxiety to create shit. Like don't get me wrong I can get stoned and play a game or watch TV, but usually it just makes me want to go harder on something I'm working on and makes the work more fun. For certain types of work (writing product stuff, making music, css polish) I find it correlates with small creative bursts or insights. My current rule of thumb... only vape [0] in situations where I don't have to deal with strangers or kids (only at night these days). Like food, alcohol, coffee, being alone, or being social, moderation is key.

My point is just that it depends on the person and setting. It's not necessarily good or bad, more like a power tool for your mind. No panacea.

You're thinking too small. The transaction is generally not the unit you want to apply version control to, databases already have robust concurrency support at that level.

What you want is to have branches on your data that have many transactions applied to them, for days or weeks. Then you merge the branch back to main when it's ready to ship.

> Well, suburbs are actually pretty interesting, more interesting is that you might've skipped over the fact I gave explicit examples where white flight has contributed to politically changing to be against public services that benefit society simply because they had to share it with black people.

I touched on it. That's where I acknowledge it happened, but that it'd be a low-resolution view to apply it to everyone today. Unfalsifiable claims of racism are... unfalsifiable.

> When a suburb becomes an island to retreat, and the populace there is established in order to maneuver against broader social support is it really that different than a single wealthy person leaving to an island and not paying taxes?

Yes. Disliking high crime, bad schools, chronic homelessness, high taxes, and an unwillingness to acknowledge the policies that contribute to them is different from hiding wealth to avoid social responsibilities.

Your argument seems to be based on the premise that city governments are always doing what is good, moral, and effective for the best of society. They're not, though, and that's why people move elsewhere. Sometimes (shocker) there's more to it than racism and white supremacy.

> Additionally, not evaluating how this phenomenon affects today is quite strange. Redlining (the refusal of offering financial services to neighborhoods of black or brown people) is something that's being discovered as still happening as recently as a few years ago.

It's illegal and wrong, and anyone who does it should be punished severely. But it does not imply that someone today choosing to move to the suburbs is making an immoral decision.

For a particular simulation on a particular Cascade Lake chip, mitigations collectively cause it to run about 30% slower. So I won't scream about 1%, but that's a lot of 1%s.
> Coffee? every day is fine

I wonder how people will look back on coffee hundreds of years from now. "Almost everyone used to constantly drink an addictive stimulant. Shops on every block sold it. People stated that they couldn't function (or even talk) in the morning until they had consumed the stimulant. At work, people needed to take constant stimulant breaks. If someone went a day without it, they often suffered debilitating headaches." It sounds like dystopian science fiction.

(To be clear, I'm not opposed to coffee. It's just one of those things that seems strange if you think about it from a distant perspective.)

There was a short talk about xtdb in the recent 'rubbing a database on it' conference: https://www.hytradboi.com/2022/baking-in-time-at-the-bottom-...

The talk expands on what "bitemporal" means in this context, namely, separate "valid" and "audit" time dimensions. The discussion upthread is a good example: if you accidentally mark down inventory in the wrong location and you find out later, you should backdate the fix to when you did the count -- this is the 'valid' dimension, but the fact that you changed it today should also be recorded so it can be reviewed later -- this is the 'audit' dimension.
The "environmental scientists and academics" in question have probably also been accused of bad science by their opponents. And who gets to decide who is the scientist in that debate?

Shellenberger and Lomborg have presumable studied the issue for decades, so at what point does one cross into "being a scientist" territory? Years of study apparently doesn't do it, so what does? Obama's seal of approval?

You are confusing science and specific systems of doing science, like say a countries university system. A specific system of doing science does not automatically produce good science.
The movie was super-derivative and unoriginal. It worked well as an homage to the sequel almost to a fault. I was expecting better action sequences with modern film-making techniques but they stuck to original techniques (or replicated it). My friends were all underwhelmed as well after hearing things like "greatest action movie in this century" anecdotes. It broke no new ground. Now, The Matrix, was all the things this move wasn't: Original. Groundbreaking.

I think if you've been paying attentiont to the space, this generation of image diffusion is shocking in how quickly it has improved on what we had a year ago.

But if you've never considered that a computer can produce an original image, this is just a new thing computers can do. OTOH I think it's also a lack of imagination in how useful this is, so far the output has been kind of random, so it seems a little gimmicky. Already "Parti" has gotten much closer to allowing a user to describe exactly what they want in the image, and as people start to see the use cases for them personally, it will hit them that they no longer have to hire someone, they can just type a request into a box.

Misleading headlines are a constant act of sabotage on our ability to prioritize our information intake. I don't know if it really needs to be discussed every single time, but it is important enough to be recognized and discussed, and until we decide to get serious about rebelling or whatever, well, who's going to decide where the exact appropriate place is to discuss it? So basically as long as it keeps hurting, were going to keep talking about it whenever and wherever it hurts.
Fair. I had read "and the law should not apply" as "so we ignore it", not "so we change it".
For the last few months my team and I have been working on standing up a system of libraries that other teams in our organization will use. From the beginning we decided that documentation was necessary from 2 perspectives:

1. Internal maintenance; to understand the system's depths and how it came to be in its current state

2. External consumption; to see the pieces of the system, how they work together, and how to use them

In my research I stumbled across several viable documentation techniques/patterns that seemed to help us reach our doc goals. We decided to combine 3 of those techniques:

1. C4 Model (https://c4model.com/)

2. Architectural Decision Records (https://adr.github.io/)

3. arc42 (https://arc42.org/)

The result feels like more documentation than anyone will ever read, but it has allowed us to create a complete self-service set of documents that should allow our library to be used broadly across the org without our team becoming something like a tool support team.

While demonstrating or describing our system to people across the org (not just devs) we found that pointing to the top 2 levels of our C4 diagrams has been incredibly useful at helping describe the system and the work we're doing in the system. We've also received fantastic positive feedback from our audience regarding the diagrams and their ability to help clarify the concepts being described.

We decided to embed our diagrams directly into our markdown docs. The raw markdown looks like this:

```

## How It Works

A person uses the app, the app is compiled from the code, the code is maintained by developers.

<!--

@startuml example-diagram

!include <C4/C4_Container>

Person(dev, "Developer", "A software developer")

Person(user, "User", "A person that uses the application")

System(app, "Application", "The application")

System(code, "Code", "Code repository")

Rel(dev, code, "Maintains", "Git")

Rel(code, app, "Produces", "Azure")

Rel(user, app, "Uses", "Web Browser")

@enduml

-->

![](example-diagram.png)

```

This ends up being completely readable as a plain markdown file, but is enhanced by having a markdown preview tool like any of the major Git hosts (GitHub, ADO, etc.) because the PlantUML is hidden, but the diagram is presented graphically as a .png image. It also allows us to keep our documentation close to the code it represents, which has been a huge benefit in the organizing of documentation (vs adding another doc to the pile of outdated docs in our internal wiki).

Realistically, what this will most likely do is require that these services modify their suggestions so that at least X% (probably between 35 and 50) of the recommendations are for Canadian content when viewed from Canada. (And probably additional rules where the topmost suggestion must be Canadian content X% of the time, etc).

There will also be some form of mandated spending on Canadian content, which I imagine will be required proportional to revenue generated by Canadian viewers. This may potentially require the providers to offer better terms to Canadian content creators than they offer elsewhere if the recommendation changes don't get spending high enough.

Unfortunately these changes could potentially hurt Canadian content producers. For example, the companies could deliberately under suggest Canadian content producers outside of Canada in order to "make up for" having to over-suggest them within Canada. But, less maliciously, it could also have totally accidental knock on effects. For example Youtube's algorithm might see the high level of viewership from within the producer's country (caused by this law) and erroneously conclude the content is only interesting locally, and suggest it less to people outside Canada. Since many Canadian content creators make more money from people outside Canada than from within, this sort of issue would hurt Canadian content creators.
The Supreme Court is not supposed to decide things based on the headlines, but based on the Constitution. (If you want to argue that the Supreme Court decided wrongly, go for it, but that wasn't what you complained about.)

Look, gun violence is a real problem - I'm with you there. But if you want to limit guns, find ways to do it that are within the bounds of the Constitution. You don't just get to ignore the Constitution because you think fighting gun violence is important. (Or, change the Constitution. That's an option too.)

I'm hoping that the new federal legislation (with bipartisan support) will think carefully about Constitutional limits, and will find ways to be within bounds and still limit gun access.
The other companies were not launching nearly as many.
I did not get the impression that "it's complicated" is the usual way to introduce it. The usual way is to claim billions of scientists allegedly agree and it is supposedly settled science.

"Also, the IPCC put out a like 1000 page report, it's not like this information is being hidden."

Yeah that is actually more fishy than convincing. They should be able to present it in a digestible manner. A 1000 page report is just spam, created with billions of funding. It is also not all hard science afaik, it is a lot of bla bla "this and that will become an issue because of climate change", difficult to find the meat.
I’ve had a lot of fun playing with Disco Diffusion prompts, but I agree that the people excited about “a generation of prompt artists” are a bit misguided. Soon an AI will emerge that can come up with “better” prompts than you, and the “art” of creating prompts will have a lower skill ceiling.

Thank you for your pushback, seriously. This "us vs them" mentality, especially applied to PMs, is outright toxic and counterproductive.

I was blessed to be able to build a team of developers who understand business value and prioritise accordingly, who like building things for others and not just a shrine to their intellect [1], and I wouldn't want to have it any other way. It's amazing to work in a team where most challenges are product and market challenges, and the rest is just pragmatic technical considerations. The world people describe in this thread sounds like a self-perpetuating hellhole.
