I think this argument is a bit like saying that mechanized looms will destroy the art form of weaving. The apprentices won’t be able to practice their craft by slogging away at menial tasks but they will be able to learn the new craft of AI enhanced art and coding. They’ll need to learn a new set of skills along with some of the old skills in order to succeed and what they produce will be magnified by the power of this new technology.
Care to explain this one?
You can do a pretty good job if you have the whole program. That's the point of class hierarch analysis (CHA) or rapid type analysis (RTA), which unfortunately doesn't seem to get used all that much these days. Virgil is an unapologetic whole-program compiler and goes even further with specializing to an initialized heap.

JVMs typically use dynamic class hierarchy analysis that doesn't require runtime profiling, but can require deoptimization on class loading.

I still wonder at the fact that reaching or flying a drone on a place on earth is still an "almost impossible" feat when humans are going out to space or even other planets to explore.

The general public are not going to be the ones using these tools for the most part. Sure some people will try it for fun and some will become hobbyists but the ones actually producing salable work will be in the industry or attempting to get into it.

You are right. AI will take over simple application building. Working with AI will be a good direction. Big data analysis, security, and cloud architecture may be good options.

Not to ignore, all of the above might still utilize AI.

That's crazy. I don't think teenagers in the UK ever carry physical credit cards on them. They just wave their phone at stuff. Even the people I buy pizza from, who are literally in a van, in a car park (it's the best pizza in the city, what can I say, the man may not want to run a proper sit-down restaurant but he does know how to cook a really good pizza) have tap to pay. The buses, the corner stores, everything has it.
Especially in white it has the aesthetics of a stackable plastic garden chair, it just makes the surrounding nature look like a trashy trailer park back yard.
It absolutely is a technical challenge, and all of the above: risk, compliance, regulatory, technical. Small countries can achieve fast transactions because their risk is lower, their complexity is lower, their compliance burden is lower, and their technical burden is lower, because they are...smaller.

I don't think so. I think Google, Twitter, and friends don't like Trump, so they go out of their way to ban him.

I don't think they're wrong to dislike Trump, but I think the treatment has the opposite of the desired effect: banning Trump simply validates what he tells his supporters. There are more nuanced tools which big tech could use; this feels a bit blunt.

I attempted to emulate the 1975 version by interpreting the basic as JS. It probably has some issues in the conversion, but it should be more accessible:

It essentially creates a state machine for each line of Basic, and uses a loop as the program counter. going into the appropriate state based on variables.

Don't people on the left do this too, though? I mean you don't have to look much further than the comments on this story. Joe Rogan is a podcaster - nobody has to listen to him if they don't want to. And I get that he has a wide audience, but the entertainment that other people choose to consume ultimately isn't a very big concern for me and how I choose to live my life.

Regarding the Architecture team, that's literally what caused problems in so many companies, that's the definition of how to have bad architects: the architects are so disengaged with the system that they cannot make recommendations.

How else, then, would one verbalize the lower and lowest ranks of one's favorite things? If you listed your favorite things in order as only raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, then whiskers on kittens is your least favorite thing. And if you only had one favorite thing, then it, also, would be your least favorite thing.

This is probably fixed now, but around the days of Swift versions 1-3, Playgrounds were straight up broken. Very basic programs would segfault the compiler. I feel bad for any kids who may have been introduced to programming that way.

Google's decision certainly gives Apple some PR ground cover if they decide to ban it as well. However, Apple may not want to do that at this time.

Also: If Apple bans Truth Social for "lacking effective systems for moderating user-generated content", one has to ask whether Twitter is any better in this regard. You can't be a person in the public eye on Twitter without regularly receiving hate speech, death threats, etc. either.

Changing from a clearinghouse net once a day settlement to real time gross settlement is a huge change especially if you are a small bank running ancient software.
What I liked least about Jira was how it turned a project into a maze full of pages of boilerplate, all alike. I was continually walking the issue/subissue tree via hyperlinks, and the pages were slow to load, and sometimes I went in circles looking for something that turned out to be over on a Confluence page instead. There's so much visual noise with all the optional tick boxes & fields (that were not used), I got banner blindness - which contributed to my difficulties in finding things.

My solution was to manually maintain a bulleted list of links directly to the relevant issues.

The US has so many banks thanks to some earlier misguided regulation:

In large parts of the US, it used to be illegal for banks to have branches.

As you can guess, keeping your banks confined to one office in one city is a recipe for them being vulnerable to the fortunes of a single small area.

In contrast, their neighbour to the north, Canada, had a much more stable banking system, that was run by large national chains (just like in most other parts of the developed world).

If you want to learn more, George Selgin has written a lot on the topic. Other keywords to look for are 'unit banking' vs 'branch banking'.

On a related note, Vault has a really excellent API. A joy.
We will need standard protocols & data formats if we are going to be able to share digital content across AR/VR devices, platforms, and apps. Tabletop games or sharing floating images are good use cases to think about the problem with.

With games, we would need the equivalent of multiplayer across PC, Xbox, PlayStation... we already share images in a way that is already agnostic.
What qualifies though? Are US Cellular, Inland Wireless, Viaero, Verizon and such whitelisted? If so, which of their operating carrier numbers are whitelisted? Or are they doing this the ghetto fabulous way by NPA-NXX carrier allocation without checking the current underlying LEC?

More than one of the carriers I listed will sell you SIP trunking and texting on their wireless OCN, breaking most schemes of this type. Registering on a wireless number and immediately moving it to wireline or VoIP is another major threat to this model.

Hey, I don't disagree government spending numbers can be crazy, but building a system for 330,000,000 people across 50 states that works flawlessly (and is responsible for trillions of dollars) isn't easy. I'm personally okay with $15M... that's like salaries for 25 people for two years.

To put that number into perspective, TurboTax spent about that much money on lobbying alone from 2018-2012.

The counterfactual that if Jeff Bezos had not been born another person would have created an Amazon, is somewhat reasonable, but you can easily conceive counterexamples.

Take Musk and Tesla or SpaceX. Battery-powered cars had existed for more than 100 years. They were quite popular in 1900 (in the US, 38% of cars were powered by batteries vs only 22% by gasoline; the remaining 40% were powered by steam [1]). How many times did someone try to bring an electric car to the market? Answer: many times. All failed, until Tesla. Could Tesla have failed too? You bet. In the end one can argue that plug-in hybrids make more sense: people generally drive less than 50 miles per day, so hybrids providing a 60-mile range can run in zero-emission mode for 95% of the time.

So, I can definitely see a world without Tesla. Not with a Tesla-like company 5 years later, or 10 years later. A world with never Tesla.

How about SpaceX? Well, rockets had been stagnant (or getting worse, cough-cough SLS) for so many decades. I can certainly see a world where SpaceX happens 50 years later than in our world. Or 100. Just look at Concorde: more than 50 years after it first flew, we have no civilian supersonic jet.

How about Apple? Are you kidding? Of course I can see a world where computers suck universally, just like printers do.

We live in a world where programming languages suck universally. I guess in a world where a Steve Jobs for programming languages existed, we'd just postulate that without that person the perfect language would arrive all the same, maybe with a 5 year delay. Well no, we've had programming languages for 70 years, and they still suck.

It's not identical because the rest of the people surrounding you aren't in a low-internet or no-internet bubble.

I love the internet. I also like to unplug, and it's really annoying to unplug and then have a few people not bought into the idea around you.
And the next sentence:

"The agency previously committed not to create its own tax filing software as part of an alliance called the Free File Program. In exchange, private tax filing software companies agreed to provide free services to low- and moderate-income taxpayers."

And then continues:

"Roughly 4% of eligible taxpayers used the Free File Program’s private providers to file their taxes in 2020. Intuit and H&R Block, who previously represented two-thirds of the program’s usage, both left the agreement in the past three years."
The change is meant to provide increased visibility in your paid compute consumption.
Yeah, I don't really know why the US needs a government-run payment system (that will enjoy numerous implicit subsidies and regulatory advantages), when the private sector can handle this.

What's next, government grocery stores or shoe factories?
> By varying pricing, you can be more efficient.

AWS and GCP have spot pricing on VMs, so they do have products that do this.

Maybe that's enough. When Colab load goes low, they can turn down a bunch of Colab tasks, and sell the freed capacity as Spot VM / preemptable VMs.

I'm sure there are many big companies out there that essentially have a standing bid for any compute cheaper than $X, and will soak it up as Spot VMs.

Not every GCP product needs to have spot pricing to be efficient. In fact if you silo capacity per product then you'll be less efficient. E.g. someone is willing to pay for spot VMs, but you only have spot Colab available.
There are multiple perspectives within the issue, and labor is not the only perspective. And since it's the relations board, we can assume they're engaging with another party: employers. Why should the people providing the jobs not have a voice?

I’m not sure you can reverse a FedNow payment as it uses a good funds model. The same way you can’t reverse a wire and the only reversible allowable for ACH is for erroneous files/payments and unauthorized debits (not all fraud is applicable there).
Normal bank transfers can also be reversed, if something goes wrong, can't they? (Eg if there's fraud or whatever?)
Yes, it gets allocated in memory (assuming there isn't some kind of crazy runtime optimization that can figure out it won't be called and skip doing that)

One reason useCallback exists is because useMemo, too, allocates a function on every render- even if it doesn't recompute the underlying value by actually calling the function. So if you're going to be allocating a function anyway, there's no point (performance-wise) to allocating a function that creates a function. You can just cut out the middle-man
It’s a tricky situation. I think it’s appropriate for the government to intervene if Google bans a competitor’s app for anti-competitive reasons. But I also think Google should not be forced to facilitate distribution of content on its property that it believes to be harmful simply because that distribution is being done by a competitor.

That last sentence sums it up perfectly! Netflix never had real competition. Then Apple and Disney got in the game and put their billions into it. The rest is history.

My peeps, I cannot get legal counsel for seventy billion countries to turn around a ToS update this fast. This has been planned for months, we're looking to increase transparency in your paid compute consumption.
Wayland has had very little traction outside of RH and other corp-heavy groups. It didn't work for too long, now it works and still requires an X server to do anything useful while having less applications, worse features, higher resource usage in the available systems.
