I keep saying this and it's still applicable. What's really needed is "Dynamic Relational" ( https://www.reddit.com/r/Database/comments/qw1erd/are_the_no... )

D.R. allows ad-hoc "schemas" (or equivalent) yet keeps most of the RDMBS idioms to reduce the learning curve for those already familiar with RDBMS, including most of SQL. Other database categories reinvent everything just to get dynamism, or to mostly get dynamism. That's not the shortest path to the goal. It's more logical just to tweak what's needed for dynamism and leave the rest alone (RDBMS-like).
You absolutely can make this shit up, and people have been doing it since the dawn of the internet.

Would this be classified as a "tiny home" by most jurisdictions? Not at this price-point, but we've been looking for prefab housing related to a transitional housing grant, where many cities in Florida do not allow tiny homes.
She said this in 2019, after it was clear:

- Trump committed crimes in hiding campaign finance violations, for which he was an unindicted coconspirator, unindicted only because he was President. Funny how that works: commit crimes to become President and then become immune to prosecution for said crimes because you're President. We now know from Geoffrey Berman that Trump's political appointees in the DOJ leaned heavily on prosecutors to make that issue go away for Trump.

- His campaign met with a Russian spy to discuss an exchange of dirt on Clinton for relaxed Russian relations, and lied about it. Dirt came, and relations were indeed relaxed.

- The Trump campaign had over 100 contacts with Russia when Trump lied and said there were 0. Jeff Sessions lied about that under oath in front of Congress, and ended up having to recuse himself and appoint a Special Counsel because of it.

- That the biggest deal of Trump's life, Trump Tower Moscow, was in development when he said he had no business deals in Russia.

- Trump's campaign manager was meeting with a Russian intel operative, and it was later shown he was coordinating campaign strategy with him by exchanging internal campaign data.

- Russians had hacked the DNC and disseminated the data through wikileaks, and Trump promoted it as much as possible. The leak of that data was coordinated exactly with the publication of the Trump's serial sexual assault admission on the Access Hollywood tape.

- Trump made public statements directed at the Russian GRU to hack Clinton, which the GRU heeded.

- Trump fired the FBI director for investigating all of the above conduct (which was obstruction of justice), and then obstructed the subsequent special counsel investigation multiple times.

- Trump's AG Bill Bar lied about the contents of the Muller report to the public in his executive summary and then kept the actual report hidden, which turned out to be exceedingly damning, contrary to Barr's public statements.

I mean... if all of this was "legitimate", why did they lie constantly about it? 2016 was the dirtiest, most underhanded campaign in US history. That doesn't scream legitimacy to me.

I've been watching the show American Crime Story: Impeachment, and it just rings so hollow as to what offended people in the 90s compared to what happened in the Trump years.
It seems one way is to post a link to HN of a provocatively expensive glossy model and wait for the links in the comments to roll in.
I saw a woman say that Biden created SpaceX to capture the votes as they traveled through the satellites. They were then changed to Biden.

Now that I've heard this what greater understanding do I have?

But what you really mean is listen to their grievances and anger at being left behind economically. I'm aware of this but it doesn't justify destroying democracy with false accusations of election fraud.
My recollection says twice. However, the number of times a company tells the media it has had a breach does not correspond to the number of times data has been exfiltrated.

Notifying customers of a breach is a much more ethical approach than sitting on the information. In some countries it is even mandetory to report breaches to affected users, which I personally think is better than not doing it.
> The good news is that the baby sleeps... a lot. You can only fill up so much time doing laundry, cleaning bottles, and doing dishes. You will have some free time, especially at the start.

I guess your child is very different to mine or you are very different to me, but for at least the first two weeks there's really not enough time for everything, certainly not to get enough sleep. Doing some side work as well seems incomprehensible to me.
Are you kidding? It's visual vomit and takes 3-4 clicks to get to relevant data. The only "great" thing about it could be the tracing but something you can easily get with OpenTracing/Jaeger. I have to use Datadog daily and sorely miss Grafana.

Look - can we just admit that most C++ apps don't have thousands of use-after-free errors?

Of those use-after-free bugs that exist, they are a large source/percentage of the exploitable security bugs in C++ apps for sure. But again, it's not like apps are usually just littered with use-after-free. Like you may find one in a several million line of code app. They are not that common of a mistake, and FWIW, 100% of them are catchable with things like MSAN.

So people make mistakes. C++ makes certain kinds of those mistakes easy. Rust makes them hard or impossible.
I don't think you will find any disagreement about this.

Again - this sort of thing is not going to convince anyone to use rust that doesn't want to already, for lots of reasons, not the least of because they think they are unlikely to make mistakes that matter :)

All this sort of thing does it turn people off from considering it for real, when they should!

(and i say all of this as someone who is funding efforts to replace billions of lines of C++ - i have no love for C++ over rust or vice versa. I just think the current approach here seems very unlikely to result in increased adoption)

Nice work, congrats!
Highlights for me:

- tabs in File Explorer
- faster and more accurate search

Still not sure why tabs in File Explorer took so long... but happy that its finally here.

I'll also add that Nvidia's drivers are fairly good at keeping wattages relatively low, at least for desktop cards. My 3070 will idle ~10 watts when decoding video or just accelerating my desktop environment. You only see that 300-watt TDP take effect when doing consecutive renders or local ML like Stable Diffusion, and you'll definitely want the extra power.

Of course note that some common CDNs just ignore the `Vary` header. cough Cloudflare cough. Also IIRC not refusing to cache anything with a `Vary` header but caching it anyways and serving it no matter what headers the client sends.
I saw a video of a similar tiny home built by a company called Boxabl that apparently Elon Musk uses. That thing is like $50k.
Yeah, it's kinda bizarre - I've been running GTX970 for 5 years and it still runs things acceptably today (although I've replaced it with 3080 at launch).

It really didn't last any less time than PS4 or any other console.
It's a glorified mobile home with glorified materials. I'm not entirely sure how this is an effective deal.

"Engineered oak floors" is an example - and while more expensive than vinyl I'm not sure it's really "top of the line".

Even some of the really fancy custom builders would be able to build a 600 sq ft house for less than $400k.

This is super helpful. Thank you so much! Will start digging into these right away.
Personally I’d want to be very cautious about this. It’s probably more secure than just running this untrusted binary directly on a server full of user uploaded content but I don’t know what level of confidence is should have in wasmtime not having any container escapes possible.
You exist right now at a time when gerrymandering doesn't exist, for certain offices. Governors race for example.
Purely free markets also have some very well-known failure cases: tradgedy of the commons, ability of a large participant to drop prices to eliminate competition then raise prices, inability of market forces to handle extreme tail risk like major natural disasters.
It's not about value for money, it's a Veblen good for signaling to other wealthy people. Same thing with most audiophile stuff; beautiful design and luxury materials are part of the equation, but it's more about the aesthetics of expense. Nobody needs (or really, even believes) in $1000 oxygen-free copper cables to carry audio signals from record player to amplifier to speakers, but if you've put down $25k on fancy hi-fi components, connecting them up with $50 cables feels poor.
Tor made Tor unusable on non-onion sites. I feed a netfilters table with the list of exit node IPs that Tor publishes (https://check.torproject.org/torbulkexitlist) as a standard part of server deployment, and it's the single most effective way to reduce form and login abuse on hosted sites. I like the idea of Tor, but there's no denying that it's a huge source of nuisances.

many "tiny homes" are actually legally RV trailers and registered as vehicles. They're built on a DOT compliant width trailer platform.

this is not a tiny home it's in the market for "ADU".
What’s the interest of the Arizona RNC in keeping, say, the out-of-precinct ballot disqualification rules on the books?" Justice Amy Coney Barrett asked, referencing legal standing.

That's actually wrong. Apple has what's called a Flex Activation policy. Some networks can lock your device based on just the sim card installed, even if it was paid for outright.

I'm actually curious if yours is locked and you just don't know it. Mine purchased from BestBuy is locked (thanks T-Mobile) even though it was purchased as "unlocked."

Considering high-level members of the Republican party and their supporters are following the cult QAnon, I think they're beyond convincing.

Interesting. I rank buy a car from a new car salesman as the worst consumer experience of my life. So much so that I've since bought used cars and in the future hope to buy a Tesla in large part to avoid that experience. I understand that it could greatly benefit the salesperson in understanding the social psychology of the consumer ... but never again will I subject myself to that process.
I'd you want 3050 level performance, you can get that cheap as well?
>With tools like Stable Diffusion every single artist is going to want a $1600 GPU and honestly that’s a bargain for them!

Most artists who are not tech savvy to spin up their local Stable diffusion instances are probably going to pay and use one of the online services like DALL-E 2 or something.
Oh it's a terrible deal I bet.

Probably get more of what you want and better deal by using some local contractor.
The baby will sleep a lot.. in two hour chunks with crying in between. That said, yes the beginning part isn't actually that many hours you're really doing anything for the baby and you'll (hopefully) be stuck at home, so it is a good time to apply for jobs and do interviews. Good luck and congrats!
Some possible advantages of voting machines:

- They can provide different accessibility assistance than pen and paper, allowing people to vote on their own. Multi-language support should be easy.

- They can provide UI improvements over paper. Consider situations where the voter needs to select up to 3 candidates out of a list of 12. Or a long ballot with lots of distinct questions.

- Hopefully less lead time for updates to the ballot if someone drops out of the race, is replaced, etc.

The past few times I've voted (Canada) it's been pencil on paper, stuck into a machine that confirmed it could read the ballot, then I left. When it's been a longer ballot for municipal election it's actually felt like a bit of a test. We are voting for: city councillor, mayor, regional representatives, multiple school board trustees from one of two different school boards (but not both).
I would call this "confabulation" more than compression.

Its accuracy is proportional to and bounded by the training data; I suspect in practice it's got a specific strength (filling in fungible detail) and as discussed ITT with fascinating and gnarly corners, some specific failure modes which are going to lead to bad outcomes.

At least with "lossy" CODECs of various kinds, even if you don't attend to absence until you do an A/B comparison, you can perceive the difference when you do do those comparisons.

In this case the serious peril is that an A/B comparison is [soon] going to just show difference. "What... is... the Real?"

When you contemplate that an ever-increasing proportion of the training data itself stems from AI- or otherwise-enhanced imagery,

our hold on the real has never felt weaker, and our vulnerability to the rewriting of reality, has never felt more present.
If it’s not visually distinguishable, it won’t matter. I hear recent versions of DLSS are very good at 4k despite earlier versions having some bad artifacts. I guess we’ll have to wait for the reviews :)
JEP 430: String Templates (Preview)
It sounds like a heck of a training course.
What are some of the things you learned?
I think mortgage rates are like 7% now. If someone wants to loan me money at 4.5% over 30 years, I'm all ears.
I bought a house last year that was originally built in the 90s. Buying and fixing a house is just way cheaper.
I would recommend reading the ridiculously old book, 'How to win friends and influence people'. I have heard about this book for years but always assumed it was smarmy and out of date. I recently read it, and while it was definitely written in another era, it is still a great meditation on how to be a better human being.

I also recommend "We need to talk" (Celeste Headlee). I'm sure there are many others. It sounds silly, but getting along with others is a skill that we have to sometimes think consciously about.

Another tip that I think works for me: Read it out loud to yourself. Maybe carve out 20-30 mins each morning. Part of talking to people is talking out loud and becoming comfortable using words we aren't used to using.

Having said all that, I'm not someone who should be dispensing advice on this subject. I'm a bit of an introvert myself. :-)
Seems like a good start, but there are a lot of interesting offerings in the introduction that really don't exist in the content so far.

Maybe finishing one of the more advanced chapters would be enough to lure people who are more experienced to check back on progress / pay / whatever you want traffic for.
This kinda thing is pretty common in the "tiny house" online community, to the point that it's a ubiquitous joke among commenters. "Oh wow, it only cost you $80,000 after your dad's construction company donated most of the labor and materials and your fiance's family let you park it on their New Zealand ancestral estate."
>8-year-old girls shouldn't be assassinated

Anyone who asserts that what happened to Nawar al-Awlaki during the Raid on Yakla was an assassination is either lying or was lied to.

It is impossible to even discuss the matter if someone starts at such an impossibly indefensible position.

There are the things that are not in this update. Important ones.
... the intended market is explicitly people who are already homeowners, in CA or WA, and have space for an ADU in the backyard, which they could use as supplemental income for renting.

Are there really many people with the finances to buy a $400k ADU for their backyard who want to rent it? That seems unlikely. More likely these are targeted for home studios/gyms or in-law (or adult child) suites.

I have nothing against ADUs, and wish more areas allowed them, but $400k is an absurd price.
That's probably not the reason why it's heavily used in China.

More likely there was some early draw based on Evan You being the figurehead and eventually a community that built up Chinese language documentation around it that made it more accessible to Chinese developers.
You should if the general came up during the flintlock era and now everybody is using machine guns. Plenty of people in World War 1 would have benefited anyways.

I could throw a bunch of examples further. For instance how the changes made to rifles because of what Generals thought their engagement ranges would be hampered the western forces who had to fight in Afghanistan.

You should also be skeptical of a General who suggests we go all in on Drone Warfare and not worry about rifles at all.

TLDR, person in a strategic role is rarely the best to assess tactical tools, and will often attribute strategic failures on their tactical tools.
> or have they really just decided to go all-in on the top 2-3% of the market?

I would say they are targeting the top of the market. Looking at their marketing it looks like they aren't even pitching this as an alternative to a home, rather a n alternative to a backyard "shed". They aren't going after people looking for an affordable prefab home. They look like they are targeting the folks that have a huge backyard and an itch for a designer "shed".

Not sure what you're asking here? Consoles these days use midrange AMD GPUs. Getting a comparable rig is price wise perhaps a 100-200$ of price difference for (arguably) more flexibility.

What's not computing for you?
Manta's pricing doesn't include the costs of the foundation, electrical, and plumbing. I don't know exactly what that would run you in the HCOL areas they are targeting but I'm sure it's shockingly expensive.
I’m a bit mystified at the reaction to this comment.

Describe what you want to a drafts person, get the regulatory stuff done (via the draft person or architect), hit the Google machine and talk to contractors. It’s painful when you have no idea what you are doing, which is why the all inclusive price is attractive (and high).
IF you look at the common denominator for every exploitation you mentioned, it is that the government facilitated the extraction of funds from the citizenry and payouts to corporations. You also left off probably the biggest grift of the century: US government protected healthcare complex which rakes in 4+ trillion per year.

I don't blame the wealthy or corporations for wanting handouts. I blame the corrupt government for ruthlessly extracting the money from workers and handing it over.

I expect corporations to act in their own interest, but I expect the government to act in the people's interests, and as a protector and good steward of their property and freedom.

I think the best way to avoid government corruption is limitation of scope. As I mentioned in my last post, this is because of the one sided power dynamic between citizen and state. I can withdraw my support from a social benefit charity I think is corrupt. I can not do so with the state.

Student debt and loan policy is indeed small potatoes, but another precedent in the same progression. Who ends up with the money? revenue maximizing universities, corporate in everything but name. The new Income-Driven Repayment (IDR) plans will make sure that the universities can keep increasing prices and have a steady supply of applicants for degrees with no economic prospects.

The best strategy for any corporation is to use the government extract money from unwilling customers.

Consider that 40% of US GDP now is collected in some form of taxation.[1] 40 cents of every dollar earned by workers is taxed and spent as the government chooses. This is more than between FDR and Regan, and much more than the 20s (~15% of GDP)

Also consider that size of the pie has also increased! US real GDP per capita (accounting for inflation) has grown ~4x since the 1940s, and total GDP has grown ~20x! [2]

Every way you look at it, more and more economic transactions are shifting from individual discretion to flow through the government.

I think we see eye to eye on the symptoms of the disease, but disagree on the cause. I don't think increasing the scope, power, and funding of the government is the medicine we need.

this is hilarious. What idiot is paying $400,000 for a 540 sqft prefab house.
This is but one test, but Linus Media Group did some testing and found that mining GPUs worked just fine. Fan time and thermal pad degradation are about the only real detractors from buying a used GPU. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKqVvXTanzI

Of course, if a card's running at thermal throttle for long periods of time, that has a chance to damage the card, but given that most cards are running underclocked, the likelihood that you'll run into that problem is low.
Moreover, CDNA is not a new architecture, but just a rebranding of GCN.

CDNA 1 had little changes over the previous GCN variant, except for the addition of matrix operations, which have double throughput compared to the vector operations, like NVIDIA did before (the so-called "tensor" cores of NVIDIA GPUs).

CDNA 2 had more important changes, with the double-precision operations becoming the main operations around which the compute units are structured, but the overall structure of the compute units has remained the same as in the first GCN GPUs from 2012.

The changes made in RDNA vs. GCN/CDNA would have been as useful in scientific computing applications as they are in the gaming GPUs and RDNA is also defined to potentially have fast double-precision operations, even if no such RDNA GPU has been designed yet.

I suppose that the reason why AMD has continued with GCN for the datacenter GPUs was their weakness in software development. Until today ROCm and the other AMD libraries and software tools for GPU computational applications have good support only for GCN/CDNA GPUs, while the support for RDNA GPUs was non-existent in the beginning and very feeble now.

So I assume that they have kept GCN rebranded as CDNA for datacenter applications because they were not ready to develop appropriate software tools for RDNA.
Huh? The all-in price is right there.
