I actually don't see anything in the OP's comment to indicate whether they are pretending COVID has gone away or accepted that it has become endemic, it's clear that we both interpreted their statement through our own biases.

If we take your more charitable interpretation, I still think it is fair to ask whether we are ok just accepting 100,000 new infections/day of a serious respiratory illness as a normal thing in the summer months, a time that we usually see lower infection rates for this type of illness. For every endemic disease, there is a number of infections that are considered acceptable and public health measures are taken to keep the real infection rates at or below that. I, for one, do not think 100,000 daily is an acceptable number of infections in the US and we should be speaking out to say so. We can collectively do more to bring that rate down, but we don't want to because we're tired of wearing masks on the bus and for some reason have tied protecting yourself personally to a political ideology. We can do better as a society and should be demanding as much from our leaders, not encouraging them to do less.
"Ye Olde English"

That is pronounced: the old english. The Y is actually a "thorn" - a letter lost to modern english. The trailing e on olde is the least of its worries. "Correct" spelling used to be completely optional back in the day. The word english has had many variants and the capitalisation for all three words is simply for effect.

I live in a little town now called Yeovil (Somerset, UK) that was documented as gifle (bend in a river) in about 300 or 400AD and since has had at least sixty documented spellings. It went via Ivel and Givelle and a lot of others. Substitute y for g and squint a lot.

That y for g thing works quite a lot for English to German place names. For example Weybury (en) and Wegburg (de) - note that -burg and -bury are fortified towns.

There are a few simple patterns that can be seen with the old and modern languages but it rapidly gets out of hand and it gets quite hard to see how say: scire gereva becomes shire reeve and hence a sheriff!

In this case, was it really working? It sounds like they had enough friction to make considering alternatives reasonable.

In general, I agree with your point but I think there's a very pragmatic argument that the open source world heavily converging on Git means it's worth knowing even if it's not your primary tool. In the 2000s that was spread out more with CVS, SVN, Mercurial, etc. also being good candidates depending on what communities you worked in but it's been quite a while since I've seen even Mercurial being used in the wild.
You don't have to drive SD with a text prompt; if you take the model weights you can feed anything you want in there and generate an image out of it.

Since DALLEmini and DALLE2 are more "creative" (since they use a better text transformer) you can use them to generate the input and SD to refine it for more fine detail.

There's a baseline of respect people get for being human, they have wants, needs, beliefs, belong to cultures, they get hungry, feel pain, don't want to needlessly suffer or die, etc and those aspects are universal.

I'd use the word humanity to describe that level of respect, to contrast it with something more or less universally regarded as the lack of humanity, things we might even consider crimes against humanity, where people are deprived of the respect towards their humanity, denying them food, inflicting pain, eradication of culture, systematic murder, etc.

Obviously there's a lot of gray room between the two where, for example, cruelty for the sake of cruelty, in most circumstances, could be considered a lack of respect that people deserve for solely existing. That's certainly not on the level of crimes against humanity, but I wouldn't say that's respectful, either.
What do you mean? (as in ownership of what I guess?)
I'm not sure I understand (litterally, without being sarcastic or something).

You mean that the point of no return is already passed and that there is no reason to try to calm down things using diplomacy and cooperation, that it's purely on a power level that there is the solution ?
Pop-ups were universally reviled, but also explorer aggressively pushed lots of random half features to support their products - the only difference is that they didn't publish a "spec" as google uses to create a veneer of not being anti-user.

MS's anti-user was in the form of ensuring that necessary sites would not work in other browsers (including the Mac IE engine, whose name I have forgotten, and therefore IE mobile). They didn't block ad blockers, etc because they didn't support any kind of extensions :D
I think "control" here is somewhat unreasonably pejorative.

They each do the vast majority of the dev work in their respective engines, so it's "control" only because if they want a feature they'll just implement it. Similarly neither implements things that aren't of interest to them - I can't speak for blink but webkit isn't going to oppose people contributing support for new features unless the implementation is not good (I assume this is a universal across all projects), or it's considered harmful (features that are inherently insecure - a la SVG raw socket access - or inherently harmful - e.g. new tech to aid tracking).
Happily surprised by your comment. It's not expressed often enough that the vast majority of what we call "tech" today is frivolous entertainment in the leisure domain. Almost none of it actually improves lives or addresses very pressing common needs.
It’s all good! I don’t think you were being dismissive at all. I don’t even contribute to the Rust project anymore, and in fact wish they’d prioritize various toolchain improvements. Just in this specific case I don’t really think there’s anything to be done. All the standard stuff is already in there. But maybe I’m wrong!

The magic number of 12000 is the average number of miles a car is driven in a year. So, multiply that by kilowatt hours per mile, and you’ll get the energy consumption of one car per year.

Times the number of cars in CA, and you have the amount of power used by cars in CA, and by association the power consumed to charge cars.

There are some inefficiencies, but they’re in the 2% range.

Sorry what does this comment mean? I genuinely don't understand (not a native speaker).

EDIT: Oh I think I get it, you want more cooperation, peace, among humans/countries etc.

Yeah, most people want it, but in today's world, it is increasingly unlikely.

On one hand, I don't like the fact that Western world emphasizes diversity and multiculturalism too much. We are too different, and forcing everyone to accept everyone is just pipe dream. At one point my values will clash with someone else's. I think fences, borders, are good. Deglobalization is good, slower economy is good. Just make sure we don't invade one another (I know, also pipe dream).

I also quite admire Xi Jinping. He is a dictator, and knows that he serves his country, an ethnic nation. He doesn't pretend to care about other ethnic minorities or other nations. He made China great. Hopefully China doesn't invade other countries, and prefer to be defensive.

In short: fences make good neighbors, let's all slow down on (forced) diversity and multiculturalism, let's all go back to our own fences, and cooperate from within the fences. We can visit our neighbors sometimes, have a good laugh, and after that we go home to our own fences.

Cooperation is overrated. I'd settle with peaceful coexistence. It is heaven on Earth.

> I feel like a group has been "radicalized" from all the government propaganda, and never got talked back down

At this point which group you are talking about could be anybody.

All I can personally say is I’m still incredibly pissed off at being told to shut the fuck up and obey some “authority”. I’ve been yelled at, followed by nutjobs with cameras for the crime of taking my mask off while leaving a building, I’ve had people accuse me of being some alt-right kook.

I’m especially pissed because the people who told me that (many in real life) were people I used to consider rational, intelligent people. I’ll never trust those people again.

So yeah, a lot of “skeptics”, most of which are just normal fucking people, are pretty god damn pissed off at how we were gaslit, dismissed and abused. A lot of people owe us a huge apology for being such absolute assholes.
> With the way the ranking system works this is basically guaranteed that you’ll lose half your games unless you’re a literally world class player.

This isn't the real problem. If everyone was on the same page and playing well, and you still lost, would it be nearly as frustrating? (It would be somewhat frustrating, sure, but it would be dialed way back.)

No, the problem with League is that all five players on a team can leave a lost team fight thinking "if they'd played how I wanted, we would have won that one", all five having a different plan in mind... And all five are correct.

The game frustrates people the way it does because they can construct an almost-true narrative where every loss is because of their teammates, while all their teammates are doing the same.
what is the difference between this and just install "nanny" software to block stuff?
Barring performance/memory/misc concerns, this seems pretty much the same as I'd design it.

If I understand your problem correctly, you have two facts: user makes a payment (account gets credited) and user consumes credits (account gets debited). Everything else is a dimension (accounts, rates).

The only choice you have to make is how you deal with changing rates. You can write the premultiplied amount on the debit table, or you can treat rates as a slowly changing dimension and decompose "amount" into "time" and the foreign key to the rate table.

Which one is better depends on what the application is doing, there's nothing wrong in principle with either.
Even if this is not the exact listing, I am still surprised to see the price can be as that high.
The proposed ideas are... fine? I don't know that I would use them, for reasons others have pointed out (I don't wanna have to cast pointers constantly if I don't have to). I am not the most seasoned C/C++ programmer, but I've done my share, and I don't think the use case described here regarding page boundaries has ever come up. Maybe someone else can comment on how common it is when you spend 100% of your time with these languages.

Fundamentally, though, I don't think that "malloc() and free() are missing some features that might improve them for my use case" is the same as "malloc() and free() are bad APIs." They're okay APIs, and they're like anything. Once you know what to expect, you barely think about it anymore.

I do think it would be interesting to hear more about the logic that inspired the original C developers to design the APIs as they did.
Yeah, I've got that t-shirt. One guy flat out told me "I think your resume is a fraud". I'd had enough, and flatly said "I really don't give a flying fuck what you believe." It was worth it watching his partner beside him choking while drinking his water.

I followed up with a letter to the CEO with description of the event and proof of my credentials. No idea what happened to the interviewer, nor do I care.
It seems based on the two times I saw it that it is mostly delusion. The idea appears to be that you can learn to do something complex on the job with a slight amount of experience and a lookup site, like stackoverflow or rose. I assume this would be sufficient if you assume really non-technical management, incapable of gauging progress.
It's an unfair fight regardless, because one side has their contract liberty (unionized workers can quit, negotiate with other prospective employers), while the government denies the other side theirs (companies mandated to collectively bargain can't fire and replace unionize workers, and can't negotiate with prospective employees outside of the union).

The power disparity is to the point that the point that the only thing that kills unions is the contraction/bankruptcy of the industry they colonize.

Look at Detroit: it was the richest city in America in 1950. Within 40 years of the UAW Union taking over the Big Three automakers (membership rose through the 50s and 60s, peaking in 1979), the big automakers have lost their market dominance, and Detroit is a shell of its former self.
Yes as said below, that implies you have leaky abstraction.

> "Screaming at my friends and just constantly feeling angry and frustrated."

A former high school classmate was known to scream at other people during League matches, and I chalked it up to a personality issue and him lacking maturity (aka something highly abnormal).

This might still be true, but it actually sounds like competitive video games and the culture around them might really normalize this behavior as acceptable. It looks like I was too quick to judge him personally, instead of accounting for the context.
Is that 5MB with or without symbols? Note that on Linux, binaries aren't stripped by default.

Having said that, if your binary ended up including a hyper-based HTTP server and a TLS implementation, and was built with the default release profile (optimizing for speed rather than size), I can believe it would reach 5MB stripped.

You can still be coached through a take-home and follow-up though.

I like to ask a very easy problem to start (some candidates spend the full 45 minutes on it) and then ask a similar problem after to build on it. If you work for a company there is some expectation of being able to work while people watch you. I don't like asking crazy dynamic programming problems, etc, but something simple and something slightly harder should be fine for someone who's good at their job.
It seems that we are already seeing that happening with people using Midjourney/Dall-E photos on their blog posts and all of them have this particular "mythical/psychedelics" vibe. In the early days of IG, all photos also had that tint filter.

However, there does seem to be a correction phase that comes after that leads us to an ultimately better place.
So I am quite optimistic about what comes after with generative art.

I hear you. Generally when Americans say, "Asian", they mean, people from China, Japan, the Koreas, and to a lesser extent Filipino, Thai, Indo, Malay.. but mostly.

Basically, if you have smaller eyes, then you are Asian. Otherwise, you are Russian or Indian .. etc, sort of like how some people consider people from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh as "brown".

Continental unity doesn't mean much for Asia as much as it does for Europe or Africa.

Google Cloud by now brings in almost as much as YouTube ads.[1]
Notably up 39.4% year-on-year for 6 months ending 2022-06-30.

Google Advertising is up "only" 15% the same period.

Assuming consistent growth rate (big BIG assumption, but Google has not reported a broken out Cloud revenue forever) then Google Cloud revenue will exceed their ads revenue in ~11 years.

And I believe that the market is there for the trend to continue, even if AWS and Azure continue taking most of the pie. In fact it's possible that ads revenue could decrease.
