This is another (interesting) spin on the language workbench / program as datastructure concept.

Honestly, the problem is that people think they want faster horses. You see the usual banal comments here "what if the database crashes", "I just want to edit with Emacs", but no consideration (usually due to no exposure) of the upside of always having the program in a state that can be comprehended mechanically.

It's unfortunate, because it ties us to maintaining and building programs like it's the 70s. For a fresher take on what this could enable if the general programming population were a bit less reactionary, consider the (sadly moribund) http://mbeddr.com
The android app seem to have received some updates in May. So it is somewhat maintained.
I'd say it's important for a CTO to be a CTO. I've been at too many places where the CTO only wanted to be a software developer/architect and would not focus on process, cost, employees, etc. CTO is a leadership role, and leadership means you have to take care of all the responsibilities under your authority, not just the interesting ones.

IMHO, too many people chase the CTO title but few really want the actual job.

How the National Airspace System Works
They can't 'easily limit what they can hear'. Filtering is technically difficult for some people, and constantly updating and expanding filters can be time consuming - although this problem can be solved with tools like BlockTogether or other utilities that leverage shared data.

Covert social signaling is constantly evolving though; trolls and other people actively look for ways to circumvent defenses, bypassing existing content filters or user filters. You can see this on Twitter; there's a busy secondary market in buying existing accounts (with various levels of age, quality, verification) and then naming and using them for trolling or influence campaigns. Dive into a contentious topic and note how many of the toxic participants have default usernames, very low follower counts, and (if you're really interested) atypical activity histories.

This is not a comment on the source article, whose arguments seemed largely reasonable.
> I disagree. By wrapping an angle in an Angle class, the internal representation need never be exposed to the programmer.

Because nobody will ever instantiate one?

At the end of the day, you're not implementing these as an exercise in hermetic design, you're trying to do arithmetic, presumably on numbers you have.
I accounted for VRM efficiency losses in the second sentence, using data from a real X570 VRM.
But then you've just reinvented storing code in files, poorly.

Why not do the opposite -- have code live in files, index them and overlay a hierarchical browser on top?
Radians aren't a unit, and degrees have nothing to do with peoples' hands or feet.

Imagine using an angle measurement for physical things such that angles with rational measurements stack to a full circle. Preposterous.
Just to be clear are you saying the costs are HIGH or LOW? That cost seems high given his relatively low traffic count but I don't know what sort of processing is going on in the background.

>What competition is "this brand of smartphone is stuck with Safari"? It's not competition if there are no advantages to be gained from the choices you make.

It's not about competition in browser choices as an iOS user. I'm talking about more diversity across platforms, as opposed to a single engine everywhere, and especially about who'd control that engine (if the single engine was some FOSS one, created by strong community or cross-industry collaboration, I'd might be ok with that).

So, iOS being Webkit only, means it's still more competition than Chrome/Google dictating everything about the web, and taking it into whatever direction it pleased it.

At least now websites NEED to be compatible with iOS, and Google still needs to at least somewhat pretend to care for web standards, and it also means whatever Google unilatery pushes as a new web API or feature doesn't just get adopted by everybody.
Yeah … employer handbooks are considered contracts.

When I'm talking about sticker shock, I'm more talking along the lines of the psychology of having an older EV.

My thinking (that I might be very wrong about) is that many people are going to eventually realize how much replacing car batteries cost. I don't think most people fully realize that reality right now. I think most people would feel very weird about throwing another $10K+ into an older EV and would view that as wasteful. That's probably going to be reflected into whatever resale and restoration markets exist over a long timeframe.

Technically speaking, you make some good points about decaying batteries. They do decay very slightly over time. But I lived with a fading phone battery for a while because it was still barely serving my needs and I was being a little cheap and lazy to bother with getting it fixed. At one point, the battery just decayed enough to stop filling my daily needs and I had a real problem and had to get a replacement quickly. Of course, car batteries and car usage patterns are different than phones, but there does come a day when your batteries die off to the point where it doesn't fill your needs anymore and many people are going to learn that lesson at some point.

I personally love the motors in EVs, but I think there's so many problems around their mass usage that society hasn't realized and grappled with yet. Personally I think there's going to be a lot of disappointed EV owners in the future.
Democratized AI will not explode, it will thrive as centralized services until the day real time AI is expected by consumers.
So much of the internet famous generation got rich by doing something, giving it away for free, then making a pile of money from giving it away for free. From bloggers to vloggers to streamers to influencers to banksy to almost every tech company. The outlier of sorts is open-source developers.

To be honest I have no answers to the problem, and personally find most of the answers that do get thrown around dont pass the most basic of logic tests. So like you the only option I see is for developers to make the change, stop the freedom and the free ride.
For some, yes. And their secondary benefit is joy.

For others, no. It's joy. And their secondary benefit is learning.
Undefined Technologies claims 4.5-min flight for “silent” ion-propulsion drone
I mean a heartbeat is needed sometimes to make sure something is still alive and can address critical issues if they do happen. But I do agree that libraries and apps don't need to "update" to show that.

Maybe some other way like "Hey, we're still here just the thing we're working on doesn't need an update" would suffice for most things.

No one is going on McMaster just looking for something interesting to buy. And frankly if you're not amazon, odds are people are trying to buy something specific from you as well.
Agreed but this definitely isn’t in the interest of library maintainers. If they did so it’d mean they are acknowledging all the currently open issues and deciding to do nothing, which would sometimes cause backlash.
In a world with security concerns, can anything be complete?
I feel like a "technology first, game second" approach is a trap. Perhaps I'm wrong and there are examples of it working out but in general it seems building a game to justify hardware is a losing proposition.

In response to your specific idea - I think something like that could be an interesting approach, but the difference between what the cloud GPU cluster can do vs an enthusiast-level video card would have to be massive - in a way that is both apparent and relevant to the average player. Obviously there would be an noticeable difference in the quality of rendering and overall simulation, but unless it's competently intertwined with the design of the game, I don't think a lot of players are going to care - outside of the "whoa, cool" aspect which is fleeting.
After reading the title of the article, I tried to solve it for fun before looking up the solution.

The logic followed what I learned at school about how to do it the long way, but of course with binary numbers it's so much easier.

I ended up with a shorter implementation that follows the same idea, but uses recursion [1]. The recursion is compiled away by Rust [2]

I wouldn't classify rats<->humans as an analogy in this context. Generalizing (too broadly, probably) premodern medical "science" was explicitly analogical in many ways, e.g. "we will use this herb that looks like an eye to cure your eye trouble" but that is obviously completely different than the experimental/genetic basis on which we use rats as a medical model for humans.

OTOH, since arguing over semantics is mostly a waste of time, if you want to call it an analogy, then fine, but I would say you need to drop your "mere" from the original article, which is doing a lot of the work in that argument, since clearly analogies in your view are quite powerful, have predictive power, etc. I hope this doesn't come across as overly pedantic, I just find thinking about these things very interesting.

Not sure I understand your point about such models needing to be robust in the face of different parameters. I was working on a model the other day which I discovered had very different behaviour based on the initial parameters in a way that will have direct impact on the software I'm writing/business process I'm developing, making it safer and more predictable. Maybe that outcome should have been obvious, but it wasn't to me (or at least, I suspected something like it, but wasn't able to reason through to the conclusion without the aid of a model). In this case, I consider the fact that different predictions were made based on altered initial parameters to be a strength, not a weakness. But going back to your point "you should only give it force if the stories it tells are plausible in light of your experience and knowledge," I agree and if the model were outputting very surprising and counter-intuitive predictions, I would start by assuming the model was wrong, not my intuitions.
Just because it's an old method doesn't mean it's a bad method.
Likewise. Have read it several times, clearly heroic action (albeit perhaps gruesome), never seemed "horror". Never occurred to me there was "something to be afraid of" after the overwrought funeral, at least nothing more than the usual risks of existence in the age.

Horror evokes existential dread, a [quasi-]supernatural threat against an unwilling [relatively] impotent protagonist, often with an ambiguous ending. The monsters may be terrifying to the Danes in general, but they are not the protagonists.

Action evokes willing combat, antagonist(s) viewed as challenger or threat to vanquish by a duty/honor-bound protagonist. Beowulf travels far to engage the heard-of horror, as challenge for pride and later protecting his people.

Beowulf sees the first monster as a voluntary challenge, the second an obligatory follow-up, and the third a duty. Any subsequent vague threats are just the way of humanity; this is not "and they lived happily ever after."
Agreed. Needs to be normalized by age to be informative.
Augment systems for the web never took off.

Anyone remember Reframe It? (And a few similar projects.)

Users using the browser extension could surf the web and see each other's comments attached to pages.

Thus any site could have comments about any of its content, without the control of that site.

Reframe It, IIRC, was acquired and turned into something else. Or something. Now there is a cryptic ghost website with a FAQ which says you can sign up if you click something in the corner of some webpage that doesn't exist.

Keep in mind kotlin is 100% compatible with java/jvm, so anything Java can do it runs on, kotlin does as well. Kotlin did get it's momentum from Android, but it's matured quite a bit. IMO it's a excellent language.
I feel your pain. In those cases, you have to try and figure out what the assembly is actually doing and how it relates to the original source code.
At most, a warranty failure may have associated damages that could far exceed the purchase price.

(This is why FOSS licenses almost universally disclaim both warranty and liability for damages, rather than ignoring the issue. Refunding the purchase price is not the worst that can happen.)

Usually in very large software purchases, fixing problems is often much cheaper than undoing a purchase.

While technically, you may be able to legally refund a $10,000,000 software purchase in lieu of buying a plane ticket for a developer, in practice, that's not really an option anyone takes.
In college I used pandoc to write in markdown and then use LaTeX math notation inline when it was needed.
I don't like Go, but I think I would use that.

But I'm ignorant: is the Go runtime built in any way to accomodate third party languages? Apart from writing an interepreter in Go, is there a good way to target it?
The reason I wrote why I did, was that my understanding of “defund the police” is that it’s not actually intended as abolitionism. If that is the case, then it’s not a suitable slogan at all for reformism.

quid custos ipsos custodiet still applies. The fact that your test suite ran in Esolang v27.8 successfully doesn't mean what you-the-consumer want it to mean if the last supported version of Esolang is v96.2. It just means someone down-stack of you is committed to backwards compatibility.
I'm tall but some of the best people in my life have been short. I do remember one boy in school who was short and I think his combative nature was a result of how others treated him and his interpretation of that. He had a hard time.

My shoulder doctor is short but a godsend for diagnosing and fixing my shoulders worn out from bad swimming habits.

I don't quite get the "physical fitness" thing b/c someone who is short can be in excellent shape. On measures of sheer mass and strength such as football, bench press or reach (e.g., basketball) perhaps they don't score as high. But for example, the short guys can usually run your ass off, come back and laugh at you while you can barely breathe. So there are sports where they excel.

We had a short guy in high school who could play basketball like Bob Cousy: he could beat the opposing team almost by himself! He was unbelievable. But his dad wanted him to help run his service station so we just had him for a few games.

Honestly, it seems that men get more of their problems from social aspects of their fathers than they do from their physical aspects (e.g.,physique).
I wonder if low-end aircraft have more novice pilots. Also, more passengers may lead to more fatalities? (r22 vs r44)
A few things:

- You contact their hosting provider and report it.

- Check if the top-level domain registrar has a form for it and report it.

- If your trademark has been infringed, you can create a Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) against the registrant [1]

- You setup DKIM, SPF and DMARC on your domain to avoid them from spoofing your domain.

Unless you believe in culinary Cartesian dualism

Also, I have to point out that this doesn't follow, and is naive

What we don't know about nutrition is greater than what we know -- that is obvious

You might hold an overly static model of food consumption and biology. In terms of what's relevant to your health, food is NOT a linear combination of its nutrients -- that is a fallacy promoted by the food industry and journalists who want catchy headlines.

For example, time is a variable. There's nothing that says that eating spinach for 3 meals, followed by beef for 3 meals, is the same as eating spinach and beef together in 6 meals. Even if you eat exactly the same thing.

And there are hundreds of other variables not captured by models -- e.g. things like gut bacteria means your body is quite stateful, and has many feedback mechanisms!

Models are not reality

Nutritional science necessarily relies on models (simple statistics), and there's lot of evidence that they're poor ones -- using their conclusions leads to astoundingly bad outcomes! It's weird that people continue to believe things that don't actually work

The kind of reasoning that Pollan uses, which includes a lot of science, is more explanatory and accurate than the reasoning you're using
This makes it sound like there's only a single platform for "augments," and we all need to share it.

In reality, I imagine there will be many different platforms, some free-for-all and some tightly curated. Users will choose which platform's augments they want shown at any given time.

Which doesn't address any of the platform-related free speech concerns, but I think that's a much more general discussion, that has little to do with AR.
Companies that are NOT RedHat though have a problem with making that sustainable.

It isn't just the Indie devs it is the smaller businesses as well. Those are the ones pulling license changes, doing "freemium" models and other things that the OSS community is objecting to and the author is throwing shade at. Those models are NOT working well or we wouldn't be having these discussions.

The models that "work" for the coder are just tossing your code into public and not caring because it is a side project or something that you're doing to learn to code and you'll abandon it in a few years. Or else working for an existing Fortune 500 company getting hired to work on open source, or one of the few large open source foundations (sponsored heavily by massive corporations and/or academia).

And I worked for the past 10 years in open source at a startup-to-small-business getting paid by my employer for open source. That model is not very good, which is why we're seeing so many issues with "bait and switch" at those kinds of smaller corporations.
I cannot find the interview I remembered so you're both almost certainly right wrt hardware ray tracing.

At a glance, Russia does not appear to be a noteworthy importer of uranium ore. I would be somewhat surprised to learn Russia is exporting large quantities of enriched uranium across the globe.
By "the world" I think you mean a specific subset of people: investors/execs/the business side. I don't particularly believe that average end users or competent engineers feel that way...
That's a bit of a non-sequitur. My point is that there is a trove of data and studies that each company's has to keep in a vault.

Well, both the Wolfram MathWorld and the EMS prefers log_e = ln, and log = log_10:

https://mathworld.wolfram.com/CommonLogarithm.html

https://encyclopediaofmath.org/wiki/Logarithmic_function

https://encyclopediaofmath.org/wiki/Logarithm_of_a_number .

Also me, and the other commenter below learned "ln" for the natural logarithm, and used "log" only for binary/decimal logarithm.

I am starting to think that log = log_e is actually the minority usage, but it is certainly not universal.
