I'd say they are analogous. If I go to apple.com it is the definition of an online store, there are a number of call to action "buy" buttons with pictures of various Apple devices.

I think you're being pedantic if you say apple.com is not the apple store. If I wanted to go to the apple store I'd go to apple.com.
You just picked an arbitrary gap though. And it seems like a small gap that's crossable.

For example just 2 weeks ago there were two other gaps that you could've used in your example. You could've said 3D interpretation of images wasn't possible and the creation of animated movies wasn't possible and you could've said these few things suggest that there's a gap in what the human brain is doing and what the AI is doing and just throwing more data at the problem doesn't fix it.

Those two examples would be irrelevant today as both of those gaps have Effectively been crossed.

See what I'm saying here. There's two ways of looking at it even from your perspective... Either that gap is so large that the human brain is completely different. Or the gap is small, trivial and will be crossed very very soon.

It's just so hard for me to believe this when he's had 3 successful companies. At that point he's making his own luck. I'd put the numbers at 20% luck for being able to attend expensive schools, 65% salesmanship for getting people into EVs and rockets and being a huge persona on twitter, and 15% being good at listening to the engineers he hires and getting the most out of them.

This has also completely messed with startup stock options. Because large companies used options to award execs with tax-free incentives, and the tax authorities didn't like that, we now have to pay tax on the options when we get them rather than on the capital gains we actually make. And it doesn't solve the problem - execs get paid some other way and options are still fubar'd

Steampipe is unbeliveably powerful.

Writing custom scripts for even the simplest of queries comes nowhere near the convenience of using PostgreSQL to get what you want. If you wanted to find and report all instances in an AWS account across all regions, with steampipe it's just:

SELECT * FROM aws_ec2_instance;

Even the simplest implementation with a Python script won't be nearly as nice, and once you start combining tables and doing more complicated queries, there's just no competition.

Be fair: the link references the standard, but does so in order to say that that's not how the NBER defines a recession.

> The NBER uses a broader definition of a recession than commonly appears in the media. A definition of a recession commonly used in the media is two consecutive quarters of a shrinking gross domestic product (GDP). In contrast, the NBER defines a recession as "a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP, real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales". Business cycle dates are determined by the NBER dating committee. Typically, these dates correspond to peaks and troughs in real GDP, although not always so.

...

> Though not listed by the NBER, another factor in favor of this alternate definition is that a long term economic contraction may not always have two consecutive quarters of negative growth, as was the case in the recession following the bursting of the dot-com bubble.
Do you have a smartphone? The average person checks their phone about 300 times a day and spends 50 days a year scrolling on them. App culture and algorithms designed to addict people have taken over public consciousness and most are not self aware of it.

Most are addicted to being constantly reachable, constantly distracted with the latest social media notifications and most shrug it off because seemingly everyone else has the same addiction.

When you stop using surveillance capitalism services, or a smartphone entirely, it becomes easy to see these addictions in others and it looks gross seeing families at restaurants all staring at their phones in a circle.

At least console video games do not follow you around in your pocket. You generally spend at least time fully walking away from game consoles, but almost no one leaves home without their social media notification machines.

This isn’t a playground we’re talking about.

And incidentally it was nuclear blackmail by the USA that ended the Cuban Missile Crisis. It has precedent and a successful track record. And Ukraine is a lot closer to Russia than Cuba is to the USA.

Ask yourself what’s worse for Putin: using nukes and declaring victory, or an ignominious defeat and spending the rest of his life in whatever circumstances a deposed Russian leader is likely to get. Are you really so certain he won’t send up the balloon?
But why would anyone... I mean at that point learning emacs might be actually worth it, no?
I'm not disagreeing with that worldview, but I meant "petition" in the much narrower sense, not of "elections", but specifically "petition to Sundar Pichai to reinstate Mark's Google account within 30 days". Seems like much more focused and measurable accountability to me, hence much more achievable.
It is actually very easy to move your identity along with follows and followers from one Mastodon instance to another. I did it a couple times to finally land on my own instance I have running on a Raspberry PI.
A resolution for your confusion is that this is a result of Go being younger than the web. Languages turn over very slowly and most languages used on the web for the server are older than the web, or at the very least, older than the web being a major concern for them. Many "web frameworks" are, at their core, a way of hooking many different things together. Go's net/http is already that framework, so it is practical in Go to not have "a framework" tying everything together. You can take a router from here and a variable mapper from there and a template library from yet another place and they all already have the foundation to work together. Some of those places may even be from full "frameworks" of their own, and things still tend to work together pretty well.

I emphasize the age of Go because I don't think this is a virtue of the language per se (considered as a bag of features), or because the developers were super geniuses who could see what nobody else could. It's just that net/http was able to be spec'd and put into the standard library based on the decades of experiences other languages had. I would expect any other upcoming languages to be able to pull off a similar trick, as long as they try.

I certainly don't sit down with every Go web app I write with literally nothing but the standard library. I do have some non-trivial code written that way, but it isn't something I seek out as a terminal goal. It just isn't necessary to go commit to "Spring" or "Ruby on Rails" or some other framework just to get access to anything at all. I'm already in the Go ecosystem just by using net/http, you're not obligated to commit to a "framework"'s ecosystem just to get access to basic functionality because you're all but already tied in to a framework's ecosystem just by using Go, and there are many options for that basic functionality.

And to be clear, I'm more agreeing with you than disagreeing with you; I'm trying to explain the divergence between your understanding and what the Go ecosystem has because I consider it a worthy question to ask, and there is legitimately an interesting question to consider here based on experience from many other languages.

I haven't played RDR2 or RDR Online, but I doubt it's in the same league as, say, something like Candy Crush. In my opinion it's probably better for you than binge watching a Netflix show because it's less passive.

Why did he talk about the future with such certainty?
It would be unthinkable that he was "influence" to make such claims for a certain purpose.
The key challenge is getting to 1000000AD intact as a civilization. For that to happen we need to get our collective asses to Mars in the next 50 years and then continue to develop space habitats and colonies on other bodies at a steady clip from there on out. If we stay put something will get us whether it’s nuclear war or just plain apathy.
Nature solved it for us: obsolete things die and are replaced by better, new things. Google dying is not a bad thing, it's how it's supposed to work. Same for countries, religions, and so on. On a different scale.
I know people that read that much but we don't go around telling bookworms they're addicts.

It's up to each person to decide where the line is for them, where a satisfying hobby becomes a destructive habit. If someone has no desire to form external relationships and they're completely content with their life, good for them for figuring things out. I'm not going to impose my arbitrary rules on them.

I love RDR2 and play it passively (a few hours a week), but I completely get how someone could get sucked in like that. I can't think of any other game that provides such an immersive world, you can get lost in its details for hours on end. Just riding your horse around with no destination in mind is a very relaxing and almost therapeutic way to pass time.

Yikes. If Google required custom builds of games, it seems like they ignored a lot of what's happening in the rest of the industry.

Proton is free, open-source, and strives for compatibility with Windows games. Could have used that.

They still get vendor lock-in either way (because you have to stream from _somewhere_) so making it worse in this fashion doesn't achieve any particular goal that I can see.

"Recently, some climate activists have begun to openly contemplate the possibility — in their eyes, the necessity — of directly sabotaging the infrastructure of the carbon economy. Foremost among them is the academic Andreas Malm, whose recent book, “How to Blow Up a Pipeline,” [1] calls for smashing the tools of fossil-fuel extraction as a last-ditch means of averting ecological collapse. In interviews with mainstream outlets such as Vox and The New Yorker, Malm contends that climate activists should give up their dogmatic attachment to pacifism and start to destroy the machines that actually produce carbon.

I like this rule of thumb to know if a behavior can be a psychiatric disorder: "when it interferes with normal functioning". It's purposely vague and subject to interpretation but it's a good first filter.

For an addiction X, you can ask questions like:
* do I think about X most of the time
* would I choose X over family/friends/health
* when engaged in another activity, do I want it to be done quickly so I can go back to X
* do I feel distressed when I can't do X
* ...

Looking years ago, my younger self has been addicted to WoW before realizing how little joy the game sparked when playing. And one day I just did not launch it and I was done with it. I certainly feel lucky to have been bored by the game before it did too much damages. Other additions are not so kind on the health/mind/wallet.
You're totally right about startup times with apps like VSCode, but there's a reason that never gets worked on really: the most active users startup those pro apps (VSCode, Photoshop, etc.) and simply don't close them.

Optimizing for startup time probably doesn't end up being much of a gain, better to make sure the experience stays solid once it's already running, and for long periods of time.

Cyclone V is 28nm so it should be outclassed by a new product offering in 2022 thats manufactured at a better node right? i'm not saying its a bad design, but that product is not a competitive offering. this new family from intel is on intel 7 node which is at scale intel can eat node prices to stay competitive. intel will probably price this competitively with its cyclone v offering if that happens intel will eat the market share of xilinx and lattice unless they announce something new.
The limiting factor of the CD/DVD drives was seek time, not read speed. Seeking a spot on the disk was on the order of 150ms. You basically got 5-7 read OPS. The best drive I remember stood out at 120ms seek, some would be over 200ms seek. Sometimes this was a hard number to track down. Even with a 48x drive, installation could easily still take 30+ minutes particularly if the installer wasn't optimized for sequential read off a flat file.

Sometimes you got a really bad installer, and it could take a pretty grueling 2+ hours. Some companies chose to optimize for space (thus cost..) rather than user experience.

As space got more plentiful it would sometimes be easier to copy the disk and remount it and then install.

There can't be sufficient public charging in NYC in 2035. Most cars are parked on the street and parking lots where chargers could be installed are scant. Those who have to commute to work by car usually park on the street. NYC is the (slim) majority of NY State's population and a large chunk of the vehicle fleet. That said I could imagine a scenario where private parking garages become de-facto gas stations.
I never quite got it. We used it for a number of things back in the late 90s but to have all of the condition checking enabled made it run much slower, which was like most other languages at the time, you tested in debug and then released it in release mode.

Also, in reference to Ariane rocket explosion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariane_flight_V88) due to interger overflow, it wasn't clear how a precondition would have saved anything - an assertion made by Meyer. If it got to the relevant method and the precondition failed, you would still have to have forseen the possibility of error and coded for it, otherwise it might not have run the function but could still have catastrophically failed.

Honestly, if more people wasted time on video games instead of sports gambling, I think the world would be a better place.

But yeah: video games are nerd stuff that you are allowed to make fun of. Gambling and sports betting is a bro thing and therefore cool, but seriously is as big a waste of time and probably a bigger waste of money.

One should always measure to see if there is a noticeable slowdown or not.

That is what I have meant by "an extremely serious reason to do otherwise".

For many programs the speed is determined by things like the throughput or latency of accessing the main memory, or by I/O operations, or by interaction with an user, in which case the sanitize options have negligible influence on speed.

When necessary, they should be turned off only for specific well tested functions whose performance is limited by CPU computation in registers or in cache memory, and they should remain on for the rest of the program.

He wanted to change the company in ways that he thought were better, but he couldn't get the support of the other stakeholders so he's leaving the board. He's discussing with a friend a combination of A) lessons learned and what he'd do differently if he could go back with his current knowledge and B) an abstract hypothetical that after he leaves the board maybe he'll work on a new project that does things better.

There is a huge difference between "I'm going to use my position at company X to harm company X" and "After I leave company X, I'd like to do a new project using the lessons I've learned".

USB C has been around for some time, same with USB A. If you had both ports in your power outlet you'd have been set for nearly 20 years worth of peripheral charging.
That's not really true. The ITU dictates what all sorts of telco equipment has to adhere to, and a bad actor could make it so that only compromised hardware (eg Russian or Chinese produced, with clear state involvement) can follow these standards. The IETF deals with a bunch of stuff, but that stuff runs _on top of_ what the ITU deals with.

I would add its just unrealistic. Right now the percentage of EV sales in NY is 1.5%. I recently bought a car and would have loved an EV, but there was nothing competitive on the market. I needed a large car (3 row) and pretty much no EVs exist in that market. EV SUVs cost a lot more too. They all mostly start at 40k+, compared to the top selling SUVs (e.g.RAV4, CR-V, Rouge), they start at 25-30k.

Plus, there are practically no used EVs on the market and you have to worry about charging. The car companies also have very limited availability for EVs so you can't even necessarily buy one. This makes sense because most are being sold at a big loss:

> In fact, these vehicles often cost $12,000 more to produce than comparable vehicles powered by internal-combustion engines (ICEs) in the small- to midsize-car segment and the small-utility-vehicle segment (Exhibit 1).

The car companies haven't exactly figured out what to do about EVs and are selling a few half-baked products at a loss just for show, but its not sustainable at these price levels. I'll be fine, sure I don't want to pay 20-30k more for a car, but I can eat the cost if I have to. But a lot of people will be screwed
