q solution in kdb, runs in about 2.5s on my machine vs simple.py which takes 4.7s. Rough interpolation with the results table puts this on par with Rust/Go/OCaml or other compiled languages.

\t desc count each group `$lower " " vs raze read0 `:kjvbible_x10.txt

It's also 1 line!

I am sure q pros or k purists can optimize this even more...

EDIT: Moving the lower earlier brings this down to 1.9s

Radiolab did an episode profiling Jure Robič [1], a former member of the Slovenian special forces who took up ultra-endurance cycling and won RAAM 5 times. It's a mind-boggling story. Tragically, Jure was killed by a car while training in Slovenia in 2010.

I think you are just embarrassing yourself now. You say "This isn't WW I" but then you claim that there hasn't ever been something. Either history is relevant, or it isn't.

Edit: you can't "impose an embargo" on another country. That's a misunderstanding of the word. You can "blockade" them. Blockades are a feature of almost every war.
You have the "right" to run cheats on your machine and Riot has the right to stop you from connecting to their servers and ruining the experience for their customers when you do it. The software is still installed and you can use all of its offline features all you want, which in the case of Riot games is stare at a login screen because they are all live service multiplayer games.

Why is your right to disrupt a service for other people more important than their right to enjoy that service?
Check out pcileech. Private hackers are using the FPGA module now. Some anti cheats are proctored these days, they see what you see to eliminate ESP/visual indicators. They’ve only just added mouse/hand aim proctoring (some DMA devices made automatic adjustments to the mouse direction with the help of hacked and custom mice - so you see an enemy left, your hand moves right, the mouse movement is overridden and moves left).

It’s very cool.

Non proctored hacking is totally defeated, the last available bastion is audio hacking (just continuously play beeps where enemies are so even if they’re hiding and not moving, even a proctored session would be able to make use of it).
> We usually think of I/O as expensive, but I/O isn’t the bottleneck here...The tokenization and hash table operations are the bottleneck by a long shot

Interesting. This is something I'll have to keep in mind.

Best practice is always been to consider I/O the slowest.

But, it's true... times have changed.

Maybe we shouldn't make this assumption anymore.
> Things that exist in most modern clouds are being reinvented in K8s.

My more optimistic view is that vendor specific APIs are being standardized. Initial implementations have their issues, but as more people use them the cloud vendors will improve their offering.
I had a similar experience getting out of the military. I had a known back injury, but nobody could tell why it was manifesting the way it was. I eventually ended up at a sleep doctor because I refused to be put on opioids but could not sleep. I was put on Gabapentin, or rather over-dosed as this use was off-label. The physical therapist noticed a change in my range, and that my back could suddenly "pop" and release tension. Three years later a chiropractor discovered the source of my sciatic nerve pain: a fractured disk that had healed over my sciatic nerve that caused all the rest of my muscles to tense up. My life is mostly normal now that I have some tools to cope with the discomfort when it creeps up, allowing me to head off any potential pain.

I guess my point in sharing this is that nerve pain can be very hard for doctors to diagnose, much less treat, but don't give up.
Some are, not all, and they're spread out across multiple config files. dconf by comparison puts them all into a single file, and provides import/export functionality that updates the UI without a restart.
Fizzbuzz is a basic competency check, it really doesn't require any "clever" thinking.
I haven't looked at many leetcode exercises but the ones I have so far definitely go beyond that, and often place "unrealistic" constraints (e.g. not being able to use standard library functions). Which isn't to say they don't test anything useful, but as someone involved tech-screening hires, I doubt I'd ever bother with a leetcode exercise. Mind you I wouldn't use Fizzbuzz either, but only because it's too well known and easy to regurgitate a standard answer for.
My biggest issue with Kubernetes is huge costs of running it. It's 3 servers with 4 GB RAM. It's almost $100/month just for Kubernetes alone. And you need one load balancer for control nodes which is another $25 for my hoster. And you need second load balancer for production workloads which is another $25. So you have to pay $150/month for the privilege of using Kubernetes. And they double your costs for your application, because you want it to be high-available, why bother with Kubernetes otherwise.

So something that could be run with $5 droplet, suddenly requires $200.

They you want to install grafana, ELK, service mesh and whatnot.
Your suggestion comes after the changes are merged. That is, you wouldn't normally merge anything to master without having it reviewed.

Stacked PRs is _how_ you can break up your changes into small components to merge more quickly and block development less.

With stacked PRs the changes are broken into smaller pieces because a later PR can depend on an earlier PR. This means it can be developed while earlier PRs are still under review. It also means each review is smaller and therefore likely to complete more quickly.

Stacked PRs can also work like patch series in the Linux Kernel development where a large change is broken into smaller independent changes done in the logical order, even if their order of discovery was probably reverse. For example, if you discover you need a refactor or bug fix while halfway through developing a feature. In that case you simply insert a PR earlier in the stack/graph which contains just that isolated fix.

In your feature flag example, a common patten would be to have a dozen or so stacked PRs. The early ones do necessary refactors and bug fixes. The middle few add the feature flag and code. The last make the feature flag the default and delete the now obsolete !feature path. Then the prereqequites (which you didn't discover until half-way through) can be reviewed and merged quickly. The meat of the feature is broken up into easily digestible pieces for quick review, but reviewers can get a sense of the entire feature by considering the PR series as a whole; this is especially useful where one PR adds some infrastructure that a later PR uses but both PRs together would be too large to effectively review. As PRs are ready to merge, they can. Often the last couple of PRs which make the feature the default and delete the obsolete code do not merge for quite some time, but they were written when everything was still fresh in the developers head.
> People are allowed to have opinions.

Yes, they are. And making one's opinion very public makes possible for others to express some opinion of their own about one's opinion.

While aiming for a homerun, one has to accept getting hit where it hurts. That's what weak spots are for.

Besides, as mentioned, appearances rarely conform to reality. In a deluge of opinions, reality drowns. Some people do value facts over fluff.

I experienced the NYC BLM protests and riots from a bit of a distance. Bricks were thrown through windows, and several stores were looted. It wasn't a violent riot every day, often just an orderly protest march, but there were riots.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this. It's a helpful discussion.
It’s a valuable distinction! This is a thread about the C standard. It’s misleading to talk about projects that use a specific C compiler on a specific platform but plainly need implementation details past what’s in the standard, or even straight up violating them.

I also had some neck issues when I swam a lot. I don't like to put my head under water and I don't know the front crawl, though I can do the breaststroke very quickly, even keep up with a lot of front crawl swimmers. It does take a lot more energy to do that but I did it as exercise so that was the point. I don't care about any kind of competitiveness in sport. The only reason I'd keep up with the crawl swimmers is because they tend to complain about sharing the lane otherwise.

But constantly having my neck tilted up to the 'stop' did give me an itchy and stiff neck, often lasting the day after the swim.

I hike now for exercise as I moved to a mountainous country, glad I don't have that issue anymore.
What is obviously false?

Every company I've ever worked for has had employee guidelines stating "don't comment to the press or mention the company on social media without approval"

Is this not a thing in the USA?
I haven't run it, just tracked down the source because I was similarly curious about the slow runtime. If I do run it it will be with SBCL. Looking at the repo, Hoyt did as well.
One possible mechanism is that by tasting something sweet you respond hormonally the same as if you had consumed sugars, increasing pancreatic workloads. There's a fair bit of research showing that diet sodas increase hunger, so it isn't too far-fetched to believe something causal exists in there.

The study by itself doesn't really prove causality though.
As a kid in 1999ish in the US, my elementary school library had a book on computers that got me into programming, and I've been trying to find the book again since then. I think the book was just titled "Computers". The book had many pictures and diagrams about lots of computer-related things, but it definitely wasn't aimed at only young kids. Among many things, it talked about computers being used by NASA, it speculated about future computers and the internet (mostly as a future thing), and it also had classic diagrams of CPUs, logic gates, and the half-adder like out of college textbooks. I'd trace out copies of half-adders in my notebook and execute it on paper to see that it added numbers correctly. One page in an aside had a small example BASIC program that immediately got me obsessed with programming when I realized how simple it was to follow.

In previous searches for the book, I found this site, and I realized the book had many similarities with the Usborne books, but I can't find it in any listing of them. I don't understand how, but the book "The Usborne Young Scientist: Computers" (1992) has some of the same content as the book I remember but it's missing a lot while also having some content I'm completely unfamiliar with. Maybe there was another lesser-known Usborne title that repackaged some of its content? If this sounds familiar at all to anyone, I have a few more notes on my memories and search for the book at https://tildes.net/~talk/is4/whats_one_thing_you_havent_been... and I'd appreciate any pointers.
Alex says, "Digital work is inherently ephemeral." This is precisely backwards; digital work is one of the least ephemeral aspects of human material culture, exceeded only by occasional miraculous analog exceptions like the Pyramids, potsherds, the Lascaux paintings, and Ötzi's axe. The Torah is digital—encoded in a sequence of discrete symbols rather than continuously varying quantities—and that's why it's survived for 3000 years. The digitization of Socrates's words by Plato and Xenophon is the reason we argue about him today, 2500 years later, rather than his forgotten Persian contemporaries or even Heraclitus.

Being digital is what makes the idea of an "exact copy" make sense. You can make an exact copy of some version of the Torah or the Symposium because it's only the discrete letters that matter; the analog nuances of tone of voice or thickness of pen stroke do not count.

So digitality is the alternative to the ephemerality of the analog, which is inevitably eaten up by moths and rust. We all know this about digitized language, but for some reason now that we've digitized reasoning in the form of computer programs, we habitually throw up our hands and declare defeat in the face of inevitable ephemerality.

This is bullshit.

What I really want, instead of screenshots, is a deterministic, reproducible computing environment. The idea is something like uxn or Nock: a platform that's simple enough to stay compatible forever, and efficient enough to be used for many things, even if there are a few things that I do on a computer that need more performance.

There are a lot of inspirational examples that offer tempting evidence that this is possible for large, interesting classes of computations: the Smalltalk-78 revival emulator Vanessa Freudenberg wrote, the UM of the Cult of the Bound Variable (which had over 300 successful independent reimplementations), Nguyen and Kay's sketch of Chifir, Lorie's archival UVC, Wirth's RISC, uxn/Varvara, the JVM, and the numerous emulators of things like the MS-DOS environment, the NES, and the Gameboy that are good enough to run the original games.

I'm not saying it would be an improvement to do all your digital creative work on an emulated Gameboy in order to ensure that it was reproducible. I think we can do a lot better than that. None of the presently existing archival virtual machines are adequate. But I think the reproducibility of Gameboy games tells us that we don't have to accept bitrot as the price of using computers.

Alex says, "They’re not as good as having the original, working thing – but they’re much better than nothing". Well, let's figure out how we can have the original, working thing! This is software, it's a simple matter of programming.

The U.S. is too bought into security theaterism for this to happen. The border especially the southern border should feel like a state border. Border towns already have probably half their commuters playing this stupid "heres my papers sir" fascist border crossing game to go work their retail job in El Paso or wherever. It's a performance for politics at the end of the day which means its not going away any time soon as long as it continues to have political utility. San diego transit would run into TJ if this world had any logic, but instead you exit the train from san diego a few feet from the border and have to cross by foot into tj, because security theater.

Meanwhile the cartel just reacts by opening more labs and grow operations stateside or digging tunnels themselves instead of having their business be at all affected by this security theater.
It's true that most of us are just watching the war in Ukraine, and I think it's important to keep that in perspective; our role is that of the audience. Talking among ourselves doesn't do much but it's not harmful either.

But it seems like the geolocation folks are actually participating in the war? Not to mention the donations and helping the refugees. (More of that in Europe.)
Yeah, here in Argentina I also get a 404 error.
No but chances are you are heavy in the Apple Echosystem which was the point. Apple TV needs to break out of Apple Fans...

I own zero apple products, and have no interest in Apple TV being the first.

That is the point, how many Apple TV users also own an IPhone, iPAD, and a Mac computer?
IMO Kubernetes is not going anywhere. People are jumping to it in huge numbers. It's very hot. It has sane architecture in my opinion. I'd say it has awesome architecture and I have great respects to the ones responsible for it. They've got very quality foundations. Kubernetes is new Linux. You expected to know Linux and Git, now you'll be expected to know Kubernetes if you're developer.
Love his summary.

It is a great way to think about performance.

Is there any way that I can write code such that I avoid this work altogether...?
There's already tons of available lines going to a ton of people's homes. It only took a dozen or so feet of cable to add a 14-50 outlet in my garage.

Their homes were built expecting them to be able to pull 150-200A of power. It doesn't take that much power to charge an EV overnight. Mine charges way faster than it needs to on 32A 240V.
Not exactly a screenshot, but I recently found a file from December 1991 that was a proprietary image file of the home screen of a local BBS I used to visit in high school. Was actually able to convert it to a PNG after some work. This might be my oldest file that I personally saved to disk. Now if only I had all those cassette tapes from my TRS-80.

> Tesla is the only company designing for massive scale

In 2020 GM sold 6.8 million vehicles. The other manufacturers are already operating at massive scale. Or are you arguing the automotive market will suddenly dramatically increase in a way existing manufacturers can't deal with? That consumers will suddenly be flush with cash to buy more brand new cars than they are already buying and Tesla will be the most popular option? This is very hard for me to imagine.

> their dependence on consumer debt

??? Teslas are not cheap. I will not be able to afford a Tesla for the forseeable future. Unless Teslas comes down below 25k, no Teslas are in my future, another ICE car or hybrid will be. How is Tesla not dependent on consumer debt? Or do you mean something else by this?

What is wrong with making engineers make estimates for their work?

I’d much rather me give an estimate than some EM or PM since I’m building the damn thing.

And totally confused by the author’s suggestion to “forecast”, which is what if not an estimate?
But people who are motivated by a decade or two of having their salaries paid by the leading hypothesis aren't going to produce unified kool-aid drinker kinds of rationales to support it. They've had decades to internalize the arguments and they will be nuanced and multifaceted. They're experts and their defense of the old paradigm will look just like expert opinion. There can still be rotten core foundations at the bottom of it all.

We glorify grit and celebrate toughness. My view is consequently people now try to tough their way through something they are simply not trained for, up to & beyond self-destruction. They have come to think grit is the key, when in reality it’s training + grit.

Ironically, it’s easier to ruin your body for an afternoon than to train diligently for years, so the problem has persisted.

Around six months ago, I was a Staff SWE at Google with ten years there. I applied to a few smaller-than-FAANG public companies online...and never heard back from any. The only way I managed to get interviews, or even have a recruiter acknowledge my existence, was by pinging potential hiring managers on LinkedIn (or in one case, having a former Google coworker ping the CTO of the company, since they were connected on LinkedIn). I ended up with very strong offers from Coinbase and Roblox; I never heard back at all from Airbnb.

(I took the Roblox offer and am happy with the decision. :) )

Specifically this section:

"Naast de gedupeerde ouders zijn er naar schatting 70.000 kinderen van deze ouders getroffen.[113] Ruim 1.675 kinderen van gedupeerde ouders zijn tussen 2015 en 2021 uit huis geplaatst volgens Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek (CBS). Het CBS benadrukte dat dit geen causaal verband hoeft te betekenen en doet nog onderzoek naar onder- of oververtegenwoordiging.[114] Volgens emeritus hoogleraar jeugdbescherming Ido Weijers zijn deze kinderen sterk overgepresenteerd in het aantal uit huis geplaatste jongeren.[115]"
