What Elon saw, was that the rocket companies was multiplying BOM with 200, when it could have been a smaller number.

There is nothing wrong to multiply BOM with 10. It’s almost as low as you can get it when operating a business.

But when you find a market which is marking up with 200, you have found yourself an opportunity for a competing business.
I wonder if it's the same or similar with music making products or especially with this unbelievable amount of guitar effect pedals.
In your restaurant experiment, are we allowed to use robots to make and sell food to the customer? Or will they walk out?

I think the article is fine. You might just be an impatient reader.
You don’t need to go through every possible element in that infinite uncountable set to prove that relationship, though. You can create an arbitrary demonstration that you can then manipulate in your head. Once you see that water demonstration you can inuit how that relationship must persist at different sizes.

Again, that doesn’t really count as a “proof” by modern standards, but it’s how the ancient greeks thought (they used more than just visual intuition/they also used more rigorous and formal propositions than that water thing, but they were visual and didn’t involve finite sets)
I honestly, can't believe how many companies I've seen that have had the problem with new hires churning really quick.

When I lived in the UK, I saw one company that was like that. When I moved to Berlin, it's pretty much been like that at most companies. Various reasons from the tech being crap, the culture being crap, or managers being crap.

While the company normally survives for a while, since if you have the cash you can survive for a while no matter what. The company never really reaches it's true value. Most do end up being acquired by a competitor for very little money or going out of business.

Based on what, your feelings? This is one of the most accurate authentic comments here.
Oh, "the eye" museum. Totally disconected from the surrounding and famous just because it was projected by Niemeyer. Worst cost/benefit with a questionable esthetic.
My understanding is that somehow the bazel server tracks all that and keeps a hot process for monitoring the source files somehow to make the file io more bearable.
I would bet such names have existed - I personally know (in Romania) someone named "Brusli Stanescu" (Brusli being a phonetic transcription of "Bruce Lee", Stanescu a common last name), and someone named "Ohara Scarlat" (which in traditional Romanian LastName FirstName introductions would have been Scarlat Ohara - based on "Scarlett O'Hara" in case that's not obvious).
I transitioned to a feature phone from an iPhone to improve my overall well-being. The pros and cons list laid out above may be food for thought for those on the fence.

Yes, Paul Cohen proved that the continuum hypothesis (that there is no set with cardinality between that of natural numbers and real numbers) was independent of the ZFC formulation of set theory (the most standard set of axioms used in today's set theory) in 1963.
CBDC has nothing to do with abolishing cash. Some tin-foil-hat-wearing conspiracy influencer tied the two together, but they're really wholly unrelated concepts, and it only serves to muddy the waters to try to discuss both when only one was asked about.

> It came out Twitter doesn't have a dev/staging environment.

And? Dev/staging is fine for enterprises that don't have to operate at Internet scale, think having a build script means they have CI/CD, and are doing waterfall development even if they call it agile. For truly Internet-scale services the cost/benefit of trying to build a staging environment that would have any usefulness doesn't pencil out. Canary deploys with well thought-out rollback plans works fine.

> In other languages people use the facility equivalent to venv like the way most people breathe.

Perl has really high backwards compatibility. I've never used anything like a venv with perl (although you can) and never had any problems, and I just install everything into one big pot and it all works.

It just seems like a cultural issue with Python.
Raspberry pi 4 is good for that.
I agree. Took way too long to get to the point.
I give some counter feedback from someone with some platform experience.

The keys were obvious from the start, the right hand swipe was one of the first keys i accidentally mashed.

The logic was simple, consistent and worked as expected. The dash and swipe mechanisms were untuitive and clear.

I'm willing to commit more to 'hard things', but this really wasn't even in the 'hard category', my definition of hard begins at games like the soulsborne series. The penalties were obvious, dont jump on spikey things, dont get hit by enemies.

In addition to the techniques in the linked comment, I'm currently investigating managing the entire Postgres data dir as a Bazel output directory. That way, we avoid executing the schema for every test. Instead, we'd start a new Postgres cluster against the existing data dir without re-executing the schema or creating from a template DB.
Multi-line comments would need to be turned into multiple blank lines, but yes, thank you for pointing out that I've been over-thinking this. I will look into what is the path of least resistance for this tokenizer-based transformation.

Chaos: Not Quite (But Almost) Randomness – Part 1 of 2
Didn't realize you actually had an account here - long time reader Mr. Shenoy.
"inner party" is a term from the world of Orwell's "1984", but something similar existed in the Nomenklatura of the Soviet Union - an upper class of people in leadership positions who had extensive privileges not available to the average person or even the average party member.

It all looks as if, regardless of the ideology of the people involved, once it actually gets power, as-built communism in a one-party state ends up structured an awful lot like feudalism...

Pay-to-win mechanics only work in multiplayer, so expect a lot more pressure for settings where conspicuous consumption flourishes.

I'm on my third foreign language. I believe you have to have a "multi-pronged" approach.

I think the most common mistake people make is to study a lot of grammar at the beginning. Mostly at the beginning you need pronunciation and vocabulary. Grammar should come a bit later.

I use:

1. Duolingo. I also pay for it and practice my mistakes the following day to build in some time spacing for memory retention.

2. Anki (spaced repetition). I use both a frequency dictionary of flashcards from the Internet and also make a second deck with a small number my own cards

3. On-line lessons from Verbalplanet. Surprisingly affordable!

4. Occasional consumption of media in that language. (Trying to read news in that language or watching TV shows in that language.)

The world of consumer audio makes very little sense. The beats headphone mentioned is often poo poo'd by anyone interested in sound reproduction, they are very over priced, but most people don't pay for the technical reproduction its the brand they want, and the belief that because its expensive its better.

It used to be that more expensive was better, but that has decoupled now with many products, now it's a lot of marketing you're paying for.

Sound is one of those things that used to be you'd pay more and get better stuff - in the days of record players and onkyo amps. Now you can get a class D amp for peanuts that's as good as anything else on the market, all sound is digital so there is no real need to spend more. The only thing where you can spend more on is speakers, there's still some engineering there. The world of audiophiles and golden ears is a crazy place, where you can spend as much money as you want on things that don't make a difference.
> Not at all. FPS is only influenced by the amount of stuff on screen, which is bounded by the size of your screen. The most expensive scenes tend to be dense forests, not factories. :)

In factorio frames aren't interpolated, so always FPS ≤ UPS. This means that while you're not technically limited by the rendering speed the FPS does bound the factory size.

Plaid founder's new startup column is building a bank from scratch for developers.

Yes. It starts with sanctions on countries. Banks are only just starting to correlate payments that may actually be the same party if they are different physical institutions/entities, down to the legal entity (LEI).
My mother was a headmistress in France, there were certain name that heavily correlated with behavioural problems: Dylan, Kevin, Ryan, Johnny (from the French singer
Johnny Hallyday). It's classist because those names tended to be from the lower classes but in general, it was also specifically the least intelligent parents from the lower classes that often chose those names.

Of course, it's a generalisation but it really was flagrant.
Without loops or general recursion, how would you implement binary search of a list? How would you implement list sorting algorithms like merge sort, bubble sort, or quicksort?
That’s the one redeeming value of streaming services these days: the old stuff you know and love is still around. The one problem is that you have to queue it up for kids rather than just flipping on the channel but that’s certainly not the worst fate.

Self hosting in general tends to be overkill. It’s mostly people practicing for enterprise tasks.

If you wanted to be practical about things you very likely would just give up self hosting entirely.
I like it just because it's a single file (most of the time). I can put pretty much anything in it without having to think about how to store data on disk in a sane manner, and SQLite can handle a lot of data. You get so many good things for free: transactionality, durability, concurrent access, and an easy consistent backup mechanism.

Even if JSON blobs happen to be the most convenient way to represent your data, you can still just put those blobs in an SQLite database and maybe worry about converting them into something relational later.
The barber's paradox can not be expressed in Principia Mathematica (PM). PM defines a theory of sets, classes, 2-classes, 3-classes, etc... so that members of an N-class can only contain elements that are of type K-classes where K < N. The barber's paradox can not be formulated in such a theory.

Consequently PM does not have an issue with the barber's paradox. PM is incomplete in that there are truths that can be expressed but can not be proven, but there are no known paradoxes/inconsistencies.

From a programming point of view PM is like a statically typed programming language. If something type checks in PM then it's correct. But as anyone who programs in Rust can tell you, sometimes you know that something is correct but it's a pain to find a way to express it in the language's rigid type system and sometimes it's simply impossible to express that a program is correct using the language's rigid type system. That's the problem that PM has and the sense in which PM is incomplete.
You wrote that if you were ever to code with exceptions, you would do a useless, disruptive thing no one recommends, and get undesirable results. Trolling.

> You can define container cleanup policies within the registry, matching on age, tags, etc. https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/packages/container_registry/...

Yeah, I gotta say - this is not great. Particularly given the overarching guidance on GitLab CI is "break everything up into 30 jobs", having to store containers as either an artifact or in the registry in order to pass them to sast or test jobs or w/e means that most projects are going to hit this limit instantly. Our largest work project has registry usage sitting at 800g - admittedly, we could be a lot better at cleaning up tags. But staying under 50 for the whole namespace, not even just registry, is going to incredibly difficult.

A fair while ago, we used self-hosted and swapped to SaaS because it was the same price and we didn't have to deal with upgrades etc - and we used our own CI runners anyway. Is the unspoken intention to force users like us onto self-hosted? Should we instead be using a non-GitLab registry to store this stuff?

Very long term GitLab user, very disappointed by this.
No, I am claiming "our team didn't develop features in feature branches". Local copy of the main branch is a branch too, I know that very well. But it's definitely not a "feature branch" - it's not named after the issue number, it's merged way before the feature is complete, no PR is created, etc.

Poland tries to accommodate backward/barbarian gypsie minorities in really weird/bad ways. There is actually a law that allows sex with minors .. if you are a gypsie, because those are your traditional religious ways:

"since they got married according to the law and tradition of their community, and then undertook voluntary sexual intercourse, which is even an element, which the Court also knows ex officio, confirming the effectiveness of the marriage"

It was ok to have sex with 14 year old child, because thats how you assert (illegal) marriage in this culture ...
The worst thing for Twitter isn't the abysmal security, it's the lies about the security issues. They promised the DOJ+FTC that they fix privacy issues which they instead ignored and left unguarded and unlogged.

That and letting suspected government-employees from various countries have nearly-unrestricted dev access.

It's also going to destroy Agrawal and Dorsey. Dorsey was apparently having a mental breakdown and Agrawal seems dishonest and vindictive.

Musk unethical? For playing hardball in negotiations? It was pretty obvious that Twitter was built out of sand and had a financial motivation to be lying about the efficacy of their ads (and thus validity of "eyeballs").
Bowing to someone who bows back is just a greeting.

> Curious wouldn't `go run` give you the same?

We use protobufs and pggen. Bazel transparently manages the codegen from proto file to Go code.

> would you say your experience with golang IDEs / gopls is degraded?

Yes, that's our biggest pain point with Go and Bazel. I haven't been able to coax IntelliJ into debugging Bazel managed binaries. To enable IntelliJ code analysis, we copy the generated code into the src directory (with a Bazel rule auto-generated by Gazelle) but don't add it to Git.

I've tried the IntelliJ with Bazel plugin a few times but I've always reverted back to stock IntelliJ.
Mechanically they couldn't unless they tried really hard to intentionally do so. Now it's just a default given cars, motorbikes, leafblowers, lawnmowers. Late capitalism has been effective at putting the costs onto other people.

Don't get me wrong, such inventions are net good (cars and motorbikes yes, not so much leafblowers), but they need to be regulated and taxed in a way that manages the additional cost burden that others are forced to pay.
Now that the company is gone, have you considered using your experience to build a similar product in that space?

Nintendo is the company that turned game consoles into a profritable business and it was seen as the way out of the 1983 game crash, caused by lots of copy cats and wannabe garbage games. Hence why game consoles are like this, those 50 bucks better cover some basic expectations.

As for the graphics quality, that has always been a Nintendo mark that there is more to a game than how many tiles/triagles per second a console is capable of, which ironically means they are the only console vendor that doesn't sell consoles at a loss.

> I'm not sure what else they could have done to produce something that fits in the expansion slot

They could've made the expansion slot bigger. It's unlikely that Ethernet wasn't talked about at some point when they designed the laptop. They chose not to, which may very well be the right choice, but then we're talking about trade-ofs not about possibilities.
It is sort of fun to watch someone shoot themselves in the foot over and over while thinking it is someone elses fault. However, they also hurt a lot of people in the process and so it would be even more idealistic to watch them lose everything for a while until they may actually be capable of feeling real guilt and remorse and not just some PR campaign.

Doesn’t matter. Make food people want to go in enjoy and pay for, pay the bills (ingredients, rent, insurance, marketing, labor, management, equipment, etc.) and remain profitable. No dipping into moms coffers.

Admittedly I did not watch the debate (perhaps tomorrow), but I think the crux of this disagreement seems to be the essence of what diversity statements are, and whether we believe the institution's stated goal.

Proponents are arguing they are mundane statements aligned with the goals of the institution. But opponents are skeptical--they see it as a motte and bailey. They are, in reality, a test of politico-ideological adherence. The institutions only use the 'we just want to ensure we have fairness and equality' as a fallback, according to detractors.

What they are actually asking is not what is being asked. Following up on their war analogy, it is as if the university asked 'How have you contributed to your society and neighbourhood?' but in reality, only accepting contributions related to the war effort. Writing about generic charitable efforts does not count--and definitely don't mention any anti-war contributions.

Allegedly of course--I have no particular knowledge in this area.
