I'm way less experienced than you are but sort of started out closer to the kernel world (work involves using C mostly) than the webdev world. It's fun if you're interested in that sort of stuff. The things that mostly make you go "ugh" would be testing your work (can't let the kernel slip up, quality is important), the processes involved at some companies in committing something as simple as one line of code, and the lower upper-bar for salary. Maybe Microsoft is a bit wealthier than where I work though.
I’ve written entire software packages which do what I need, exactly, rather than try to get Kubernetes to behave, and I am much happier for it.

It's difficult not to come up with a glib dismissal, but can we have employer-independent healthcare, especially in a time of two pandemics?
I wish we could have a 'free market' of sorts for hyper-scaling hard science companies and their leadership.

This guy has his power and fame because no one (thus far) was able to match the performance of the electric car/space company he created. This aura of excellence attracts the best of the best which he then grinds to dust which perpetuates a feedback loop of top tier design and execution attracting the next wave of top performing people.

Yes you can make arguments that some parts of his organizations may not be up to snuff & playing with fire (Autopilot for example) but overall he is operating in a class of his own and that is going to force the people who want to be part of this (supposed) A-Team to have to put up with Musk as a person.

If there was another Musk that could match him at his own game, and was a lot nicer and respectful then I argue Musk would have sunk himself by now. But as it stands, so many people & institutions are having to tolerate him because they have nowhere else to go. It was the Peter Theil playbook executed masterfully.
> Tail-calls is fundamentally something that the compiler _cannot_ solve.

I don't see why. Compilers are how tail calls are literally always implemented. It's not like there's hardware support.

What makes this impossible?

.

> The issue is that to avoid stack blow-up you need the engine to recycle stack frames.

I mean, what's stopping you from just implementing a trampoline?

.

> The problem with this is that in WebAssembly (and JavaScript) the call stack is observable via the .stack property of thrown exceptions.

Okay? This seems fine to me. What makes this a problem?
Islam is Christianity that goes “back to the roots” X Buddhism from Afghanistan/Eastern Persia (including the pilgrimage and washing ritual). Trinitarianism is only one branch of Christianity and not the main one. It was delicately made into the main one much later.
> I acknowledge that these are excuses

I'm not privy to the story here, but taking eight months off to treat PTSD doesn't sound like an excuse to me, but a really important period of time that needed to be taken. I hope you're doing alright now, but don't let yourself go thinking that taking time to deal with something like that is an excuse for other things not happening - it's far more important.

Separately, I've not checked Vale out yet, but props to you for diving in on new ways of handling memory and RAII - looks really interesting and I'll be giving the language a whirl at some point soon!

I have noticed this as well. I typically turn my internet off completely at which point Spotify does not try to load from server and lets me listen immediately.
Thanks, that's pretty much what I suspected. I guess the issue is that the term (fundamental) is being used in a specific context assumed by experts in that area.
> I just started reading [...] with incredible bias.

wow how could you
Thanks for explaining my life to me.

I am glad you know that I don't really have people schedule meetings right after getting an email in which I (and others) have to explain the content of said email before we can do anything productive.

Now that I know everyone who schedules a meeting to have someone explain an email to them actually read and understood the email it makes total sense that they ask questions that betray a complete lack of knowledge of anything beyond the general topic.

I would expect someone who read the email to be able to form a question that builds on or slices into some concern the email addressed, but now I know that feigning ignorance is just their way of showing how much they appreciate my time and opinions.

My life is materially improved. Thanks!
I would assume they verify titled players to avoid any potential liability or defamation legal issues but they aren't the most professional bunch so who really knows. There are a lot of questionable practices they've done over the years as an organization.

As for Irwin, its detection rate, and thresholds, it has fairly high false-positive rates inherent in the model.

From my experience, if you get banned don't expect any kind of due process.
They aren't professional, they don't respond. Not even the legal contact on their charity.

Not everyone gets banned for cheating.

They do ban people from the lichess site for many other unprofessional reasons such as contributing to the project (when they don't like what you had to say on an issue and you weren't spamming).

I have to wonder how many similar-named accounts got axed alongside mine when they decided to go after me for what I disclosed. Its not like my github username was connected in any way to my lichess account (or that similarly named).

Needless to say, I don't use their platform anymore because its more bots than anything else, and I don't volunteer my time to people that don't deserve it.

As a side note, their lack of standard professional practices make me wonder what kind of fraud is actually going on behind the scenes.

As a business, the only arguably beneficial reason for not following GAAP+ other standard business practices is to commit a fraud.

Personally I find the stuff in the second half of the Ending Titles quite wonderful.
The biggest problem I have with functional programming is debugging.

On imperative code, execution is easy to follow. Instructions go one after the others, loops loop, function calls and local variables go on the stack, globals are always visible. Optimization aside, what you code is what the computer runs. You often have a debugger to step through your code, or some logging facilities, even if it is just a printf.

On functional programs, the idea is usually that you manipulate stuff, but you don't know what you manipulate. You apply a functions to functions making other functions until you end up with the function that turns the input of your program into the output of your program. Then you let the compiler do its magic, it is actually really good at that and not slow. But then you end up with something that doesn't look at all like what your wrote (computers are imperative), and if, in the end, the result is wrong, good luck finding where. The debugger will give you the state of the program in a program that has no state, and logging is a side effect in a program without side effects.

Functional programming is not bad, I love pure functions, but in the end, I think it is just a tool. A solution to a set of problems, but not enough to stand by its own for most projects. And it is evident from most modern programming languages. Most of them have some functional paradigms, and could likely be used to write pure functional code, but is better suited as something to use just when you need it.
The word Hindu itself is an exonym. What you are doing is playing language games by conflating everything Indian with Hindu.

Here's the acid test: if you buy the whole thing, does it have value? If so, we can talk about fundamental value. If you can't, the concept of intrinsic value fails to hold. Not all value is intrinsic. But ephemeral value is, well, ephemeral. That's what Munger is getting at.
This rant is completely unrelated and definitely not wanted.
A contrived example: https://godbolt.org/z/17T5MzvGY

The compiler is able to optimize the function calls in the return statement. Note how the calls are compiled into a jmp instruction, instead of a call instruction. This means that it doesn't need a new stack frame for each call. Even if the "x" is very big, it won't blow the stack.

The most basic application of tail call optimization is when you optimize a recursive function. It essentially turns the recursion into a loop. In fact, is how you write loops in certain functional languages. But TCO is not jut for that. It can also be used when one function calls a different function, like in the first example I linked. In this case the gotos can model any state machine, not just a self loop.

A Bitcoin private key is 32 bytes long. /etc/shadow on my machine is 1080 bytes long. Heck, my entire password manager database is probably no more than a few KB in size.

Sure, chasing the necessary pointers and data structures through the kernel or other user programs might add some overhead, but don't write off a 200b/s leak as harmless. It may well be enough to steal the secrets you care about the most.

If you don't want to try to claim that land through adverse possession you should look into getting an easement/covenant drafted and on file for perpetuity so when you move out the next owner can't turn around and hassle your friendly (ex-)neighbors with the threat of it.

Nope. You don’t need a DV compatible display with the latest MPV. Their latest gpu-next renderer can tonemap DV to SDR or HDR so as you can watch it on an old display.
Seems like it couldn't hurt to do the initial schema load in an optimal way, and if you add and drop columns to oblivion then that sucks but most people are add-only for databases of any sufficient size in general.
This doesn't really solve the issue though - it just moves it to trying to recover another key.
> To give you an example of this, a claim often made is “trans kids are being harmed due to lack of access to hormones/surgery”. I find this revolting. I would consider, for this example at least, the current system is doing good in protecting them, certainly it is not harming them.

Then I probably don't care about your opinion on this - we are almost certainly speaking from completely different ontological perspectives.

The article mentions:

> We build packages in package groups, to take into account separate packages that need to be upgraded together. Once the whole group has been built, we run a virtualized test suite to make sure none of our core components and developer workflows are broken. Each group is tested separately with a full system installation, boot and local test suite run on that version of the operating system.

> We then proceed to carefully guide this release to the fleet utilizing SRE principles like incremental canarying and monitoring the fleet health.
Post title repeats the same 'all together' bias, so it is likely the single strongest sentence in the article despite being wrong when viewed in detail
No, the point was to provide an example of a cultural artefact being stripped of meaning and most people not being particularly affected by it in a negative way.

In fact, in the example, I would think most people are in agreement destroying the cultural artefact of absolute monarchy and wearing it’s hollow trappings as marketing props to boost the tourism industry is a good thing.

I genuinely don’t understand this obsession with “preserving the original meaning”. As if it actually exists, it does not, everything is a perversion of everything else. Even assuming there was some “original meaning”, why would hollowing it out, or twisting it into the very opposite matter in any way? It’s just another mutated idea in the long line of mutated ideas that make up human thought.
Agreed, Newsmax's cover story is the hearing. Other than that not a blip :)

Maybe far-right news sources are covering it because...it's news? Instead of because conspiracy.

This model is larger than anything HF has done, so resource usage likely has to be constrained a bit (GPT-3 was restricted at first for similar reasons, in addition to the potential abuse issues)
> There's so much junk in the way of the content

There's a lot of junk in the content too. In the software topic, I have read some articles that had interesting code by what sounded like entry-level to mid-level software engineers, and it was helpful for me when I was grasping with similar problems. But most of the senior-level author articles that are more about concepts, high-level project or organization problems and similar, most of the interesting stuff was outside of it. On medium I rarely see articles like that, what I see most are articles that try to be about that, but read like written by a non-senior author, and is sometimes buzzwordy or has no information I can extract beyond self promotion of the author.
"So yes, undoing Roe returned us to the mainstream."

Repeating that just makes you sound like a pedant more concerned with crafting an argument than grappling with the real world situation. In terms of abortion access, the thing actual humans care about, the US just joined the cultural hinterland in denying abortion access to a vast amount of its populace.
I thought about it recently, and added up what I was spending on Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, Disney/Hulu/ESPN, Spotify, Doordash, multiple cloud storage services, Apple Arcade/News/Fitness, NYT Crosswords, PS Plus and probably a few more. It was all combined less than $100/mo. The amount of enjoyment my family gets out of these is still worth a LOT more than that number. I'd rather cut down on 1-2 restaurant visits or a few cocktails per month instead.

Budgeting is great, but a lot of people end up being penny wise and pound foolish. There are a lot of bigger, more frivolous expenses most of us can cut out of our lives before Netflix starts being a problem.
What's your workflow for this?
slower processors with more efficient software? For as far as we've come with hardware, the actual user experience hasn't changed anywhere near as dramatically because faster machines just allowed people to push out slower software, the same way that hard drives moving from MBs to GBs to TBs just meant that games and applications bloated up to fill all available disk space and websites bloated up to consume increased bandwidth as we went from 56k to broadband.

Pitches played on familiar instruments are fairly well-defined. Now put down the instrument and play the pitches in your head; gets interesting.

Companies trying to make trademark, patent and copyright claims seems like an entirely different matter from people complaining about cultural appropriation. The former is typically by people who may have a legal basis for claiming ownership over an idea (the merits of which is a different conversation, in my opinion).

I don't get the sense that the article's author is attempting to make a copyright claim on Buddhism here. This is just ethnic turf staking.
Your example would stand if Rome was the #1 economic power, was also the #1 producer of movies in the world, exported it's myths and culture all around the world all year long, forced their neighboring countries into trade partnerships to make sure Rome's products (including their music, movies, beverages etc.) weren't blocked from competing with local products.

Then yes, people could be pissed at Rome companies also producing "Rome croissant" that were to globally compete with French croissants and take their place on other countries' shelves.

Europe buys Russian gas because it's plentiful and cheap. Same as the US buys lots of stuff from China/Taiwan because it's plentiful and cheap.

The US is just as addicted to Taiwanese semiconductor chips as Europe is addicted to Russian gas.

There's a reason that Globalisation is not the panacea it's touted to be. All countries should be manufacturing everything they need. Maybe not all of it, but sufficient to have the skilled workers' expertise and the resources for manufacturing it.

Functional programming doesn't actually compete with imperative programming.

In practice, functional programming is a way of organizing imperative programs. Kind of like how OO is a way of organizing imperative programs.

Almost all applications written in Haskell use the IO monad quite a bit, for example. Large Haskell projects generally use a lot of C libraries, and sometimes even directly include C code for performance sensitive bits.

You basically described any workplace in a large company. Organisations are systems made of loosely interconnected and dependent systems, made up of people. The complexity of business norms, personality and cultural differences, and unrealistic expectations around business processes can be difficult to reign in inside a global company. Some workplaces have worked out a sweet spot, balancing people, HR, tools, culture and purpose.

I’m not telling you or anyone else in these companies to suck it up, but there’s a point where employees and teams in these situations need to step back and realise what they’re dealing with, and adjust their mindset accordingly.

Personally, I like identifying and unfucking bottlenecks. Sometimes explaining why something is so fucked to the people being fucked can go a long way.

Seeing through dust is part of it. Another part is redshift: because of relativity, things moving away from us appear redder (longer wavelength) the faster they’re moving away. That’s the same principle (Doppler effect) as the lower-pitched siren sound as the ambulance drives away. Because the universe itself is expanding, the farther something is from us, the faster it’s moving away relative to us, and the more redshifted it appears to us. And again because of relativity, the oldest objects we can see are the ones that appear farthest away (i.e. their light is just now getting here, after 13 billion years, from 13 billion light years away). Thus, if we want to study the earliest times of the universe, we must study the most redshifted objects—which have shifted all the way out of the visible spectrum and into the infrared. Hence, Webb is an infrared telescope.
