It's a valid point but, is pretty different in its intent from what GP comment is getting at.

This wasn't a result of "let's target this group we've deemed political enemies", it was "we're attempting to enforce this law (mind you, effectively everyone agrees with) via data collection".

I can buy how that's a pretty darn thin line, but, in practice I think it's also true that we haven't seen much evidence of the more shady interpretation that GP's post implies.

Sure, but mind you Apple's phones have gotten thicker over the past 5 years (as have their laptops), and that certainly hasn't impacted sales in any meaningful capacity. People don't really care, and I don't buy the arguement that it's impossible for Apple to design things to be more repair-friendly. Simple changes like socketing the battery or limiting OEM component DRM would make all the difference, but Apple actively fights against any changes that would threaten their authority over the iPhone and it's aftermarket profitability. Maybe there is a technical limitation here, but I'm not convinced the world's largest engineering team can't fix it with their 100 billion dollars in liquid R&D funding.
That allsides chart is a bit weird. Poltico as left slanted!?! With all due respect, as a complete and utter centrist, the NYT and WaPo are hardly left of center. NYT gave very favorable to Trump, and disfavorable to Clinton coverage all through 2016.

Going a little further back, NYT sat on the NSA dragnet surveillance story (Risen and Lichtblau) in the 2004 election year when it very well could have cost G.W. Bush the election.

WaPo has been very careful to offer pro Trump editorials all along.

Neither can bring themselves to write "Trump lies".
"We verified the validity of our source's signature and vouch for it's authenticity"

- Journalist from a respected newsroom, when they choose to keep the source confidential. So it won't be better or worse than it is now: all about transitive reputation.

The unspoken threat to further denials is the risk that the source may go public, or if unauthorized, doxxing the person who recorded the video (assuming signatures have nonrepudiation)

That is exactly what money laundries are doing. They are obfuscating the money sources.
You could cascade the sanctions so any addresses touched by sanctioned addresses becomes sanctioned too; that leads you open to trolling and abuse where a sanctioned address sends money to celebrities to impact them. This could probably be dealt with by saying anyone who uses an obvious Tornado-style contract that's been sent money from XYZ address is illegal, so you don't end up with the trolling, but I don't know for sure how that'd work.

There was a podcast a few years ago -- This American Life, or Criminal? I don't remember -- about a corrupt cop that tried to frame someone and get them committed to a psychiatric unit for some reason in retaliation for something.

It sounded preposterous, except the person had recorded audio of them busting into their home and they played it on the podcast. Chilling.
"Adults aged 60 and older who sit for long periods watching TV or other such passive, sedentary behaviors may be at increased risk of developing dementia, according to a new study by USC and University of Arizona researchers.

Their study also showed that the risk is lower for those who are active while sitting, such as when they read or use computers."

People in the former group probably have lower IQ and could already be undergoing cognitive decline. One could do a study where the treatment group is told to avoid watching TV in favor of more mentally stimulating activities and see if it makes a difference.

"Literally" was probably an exaggeration, but they are in a way.

If you deposit $100 with bank A, and they give a loan for $80 to person B, you have $100 to spend and person B has $80, so $180 can float through the economy.

The $80 debt should cancel out person B's surplus, but it kind of doesn't if interest rates are low enough because they'll never actually pay it back.

That's my potentially poor understanding of it.
Or in other words, this is piling complexity on top of complexity on top of complexity, on top of various abstractions.

For anyone else reading you need the -original versions. The others are setup for the diffusers library and I can't find a checkpoint file in that, just the original one.
It depends though, yeah? Like, at least then you can issue a patch. If a CVE sprouts up on an old version of an OS, you're pretty hosed.
> A big downside of committing to “the Nix way” at this point in time is that fixing broken stuff might need learning the language and digging through docs and issues which are not always clear or complete.

If they mean broken packages, then yeah; there's probably only a few dozen serious aarch64 users on NixOS, and only a handful of them probably end up reporting package issues. You'll probably need to fix some things manually, in the end.

As for fixing cruft/breakage, Nix' generation concept helps mitigate update-related disaster. If you've got devenvs separated into flakes/profiles, you can roll them back on a rebuild-by-rebuild basis, pretty much ensuring you'll never be left with an unusable system. Obviously, this only extends to NixOS in a VM to a limited extent, but still useful to have.

I guess my real question is... why? If you're going to go through all of this trouble just to resort to a VM, why wouldn't you install Nix natively on MacOS and then use containers as-needed? Having an always-on VM for development seems like such a chore to me, especially on MacOS...

PicoLisp does not depend on LLVM. The PicoLisp implementation pil21 uses LLVM in it's build process of the interpreter. There are multiple implementation of PicoLisp for different use cases. miniPicoLisp targets embedded. pil64 uses some meta assembly that can has an x86_64 and ARM64 port. pil32 is implemented in just C + Variable length arrays. Ersatz runs on the JVM.
It's nice to identify callers if your pone rings a lot. Unknown callers get a different ring. It's also nice to be able to customize what you own. I know not everyone wants to customize but it's hard to argue that it not a nice feature to have when you want it. Imagine being able to have a custom start up chime for your car. Now imagine every other car is able to do it except for yours. Thats not very fun.

Not selling internationally perhaps? If you're only selling to customers in the same place then taxes are often much simpler. You might even be exempt from your country's whole sales tax system until you're big enough to cross a threshold.

The weird thing as I see it is that somehow the alcohol lobby has convinced an entire society that anyone who runs into severe consequences from routinely ingesting this drug (alcohol) is literally genetically deficient. Pretty much the opposite of the how people react to most drugs, for example opioid pain killers.

It's a very powerful psychological tool for promoting alcohol consumption and suppressing anti-alcohol messaging. It may even make some people continue drinking just to prove that they can "handle it" and are not genetic failures. Or even prevent people from admitting they decided to stop drinking, because someone may conclude that you are therefore genetically flawed (alcoholic).

This particular aspect is probably one of the things I hate most about our culture.

This feels more like "anti-libertarian" rather than "anti-democratic." The state having fairly tremendous power through warrants and other policing systems is largely orthogonal to the idea of government by the will of the people.
> You are basically not writing Python code at all.

I really dislike this take. I believe Python is about rapid iteration, doing more of functionality with less code, and enjoying the process of programming. You know what I enjoy? Easily knowing what features (methods, attributes, keys) an object has. You know what I really don't enjoy? Having to dig through reams of source code to figure out what attributes I can use, or what *kwargs a function takes.

Nothing about duck typing prohibits saying `def func(duck: Duck)`, because maybe it's a French duck and has .coin() instead of .quack().

Also also, how is static typing completely incompatible with dynamic features? Usually there exists an abstraction with static types that actually captures the behavior you want. Its rare you want to be able to handle literally anything. Ask oneself, "could this function receive absolutely, truly, anything, or is it just shortcut for not finding the right types?"

I haven't used pydantic yet. I'm conservative when adding (non-dev) dependencies since I am maintaining library packages. For other projects, it's a possibility.

> if I mark a field as an int, and pass in a str, I want an error -- is that weird of me

That is perfectly fine. And the question is why don't TypedDict, NamedTuple, dataclass raise during construction - since if they don't - we have to play it safe and do isinstance checking since we can't trust the field's types at runtime.

I suppose the idea the `typing` module [1] is to be unobtrusive: not to be involved in runtime checks.

What I want is something that does what pydantic does in standard library. I think it's a sensible request and would be indispensable for anyone wrangling data.

It may be faulty understanding on my part because I live in the imperative domain, but I am told by FP people I like that the killer reason its opimisable (after the type checking, compile time stuff, preservation of abstraction state, you name it) is tail recursion and lazy eval.

I always find myself asking, if these "FP in xxx (imperative> language" discuss the consequences of taking FP algorithms which depend on lazy eval and/or tail recursion, which may cause stack/heap fails if done naievely.

They hide behind proxies, VPN, Tor. They obviously don't care about the harm they do to their victims, and the judicial system is mostly powerless to find, even less prosecutes these trolls online.

TFA says a bunch of math functions are included but aren’t built by default.

I’m wondering if they have a probation (—edit— prohibition even, stupid spellcheck) on new utility functions (so they would only have to be written once and everyone would benefit) hidden behind feature flags or if nobody has bothered to send in a patch?

Also wondering if there’s a benefit to having the database call the functions over just doing it yourself in whatever language you are using? Not a db person so don’t know.

I don't know squat about AI research, but I was excited to hear that Carmack is getting into it in a big way. Even took OPM.

This is exciting to me because, for one, he is smart and talented and driven and might be able to make significant advances. But more importantly, it means he has done the initial research of the state of the art, gone through the larval stage as he calls it, and has decided with reasonable confidence that there is much promise for further progress.
Once I was stuck in this Pdf viewer trap. I learned hard way that the browsers default pdf viewer operates in its own sandbox - to which I have no access. My client wanted to edit the data displayed in the pdf viewer and save the latest in a backend storage on Print. I thought I would find the control via document.getElementById (or something similar) grab the latest data, save it, and call it a day; but - nature has some other plans for me.

I ended up downloading pdf.js, which has about 30k lines of code. Imagine getting familiar with all of that, making changes, and getting the final output approved by various stakeholders - execs in the loop. Yeah, my reputation was on the line.
No, it should not be Google doing the review, it has to be a non-biased third party. This should apply to a lot of things, including app store stuff. Google doesn't make the decision, but they do get a share of the fee (if they don't have to pay out), since it is a hassle for them and they should be protected against frivolous complaints.

And by the way, while I'm sure Google should have to restore the account in this case, I'm not so sure Google should have to compensate even for the investigation fee. Because honestly it is a tad clueless to take photos of a kid's privates and allow them in the cloud. He didn't do anything truly "wrong" (in the molestation/ child porn sense), but still should have known it wasn't a good idea, so paying $100 for his mistake and being without his account for a week sounds about the right "punishment."

I am in the middle of writing a blog post that is similar to this. My post even also references The Great Divide.

However, my conclusions are different. I think the main problem with front-end today is the complexity of the tooling and the lack of specification updates to implement successful concepts that would allow the removal of frameworks and tooling. I think many of the tasks he describes in this post would cease to exist entirely if we began focusing on implementing things directly into specs and aggressively sunsetting the use of frameworks and tooling.

We have to get away from everything is Javascript and an abstraction land. If a front-end developer didn't have to learn frameworks and how to debug Webpack configurations, they might have more bandwidth to learn how to write HTML properly.

I think he sets up kind of a straw man here. There are a lot of front-end developer roles that are just straightforward JavaScript programming with some domain specific knowledge of Web APIs and frameworks. Then there are front-end developer roles that include the more nuanced stuff he talks about, but I don't think there are a lot of companies plopping all of this disparate stuff into one person's lap.

The real problem is that in 2014-2015, Front-End Developer stopped meaning "A person with an eye for design and detail who can write clean markup and CSS and add some interactivity to a webpage with JavaScript" to "Classical software engineer who writes code in JavaScript". This transition happened because of the mass move to single page applications. But organizations still need people who can do what the previous incarnation of front-end developer did, even if they don't know it. They just don't have a standardized name for the role.

And as someone who has been both versions of front-end developer (I successfully transitioned when I saw the writing on the wall but one look at my personal site should tell you I'm of the old guard.) I think there is a possible version of Front-End Developer in the future that is somewhere in the middle. Truly balanced. Right now things are just too heavily weighted in one direction. I don't think the right move is to necessarily create a bunch of other roles. If that was going to catch on, I think it would have already.

So, I actually agree with you there. Crafting a prompt, curating the output, and then distributing it certainly itself an act of communication.

I don't particularly like it as an act of communication because the information density is going to be quite low. If you want to tell me something, I'd rather you just told me the prompt! It will have all the relevant "real" communication; anything added by GPT-3 is basically just filler.
