I learned a lot in calculus and physics classes in high school and college that I have never used over my 35 year career. But learning those principles was tangentially beneficial in many ways. It taught me how to solve problems and think through several steps to come up with an answer. When I hear or read stories about outer space, power generation, or communication signals; I have a framework that I can build upon to understand the issue.

I have kids now in high school and when I help them with some math problems some of it comes back to me, but many of the formulas I memorized so many years ago are long gone from my memory. But that is ok.
People forget that Stanley #4 plane hasn't really changed in over 100 years. It's still one of the best tools out there.

We dumped CVS because it was a poor tool, for the time. Subversion was better. Then completely distributed systems became better, because connectivity and computational power came about.
It's all just marketing for him. His ideas for peace are straight out of Putin's wishlist.
Anyway his over the board results are more or less consistent with his online results, so either he has invented some cheating method that had evaded detection for many years at top level events, or that he is really good on his own.
oh, oh god. they warned us this could happen.
do I really need to login/pay to read this news?
Why exclude the pandemic/remote work?

But to exclude it for a bit, my personal, super anecdotal and biased view is that those years were very different.

2003 had low hope for a better future, but there was a lot of action in the fallout of 9/11. It felt like we were at least trying, even if it ended up being a horrible try.

2013 I felt hope for a better future, but there wasn't a lot of action to make that a reality.

2023 and there's zero hope for a better future and we're doing nothing about it.

We need at least hope or action.
I've only maybe used differentiation/integration a few times in my professional career (use it more on personal projects actually). That said, having a solid intuition about first/second order derivatives, rates of change, is incredibly valuable when thinking about the world. I probably use this intuition quite a bit in day to day life without even realizing it. I do wish more probability & statistics was taught earlier on though.
std::optional can be described as memory-unsafe because indirection when an optional is empty has undefined behaviour rather than deterministically throwing an exception or aborting the program, and may misbehave in all sorts of spectacular ways, including accessing random memory, on common implementations. Thankfully, implementations can and do provide ways to get it to behave more predictably.
It's not only the original author, don't forget, but it's any malicious actor that's managed to compromise that hosted script.

It should be viewed in the same way that a package author on NPM or PyPI may publish a malicious package, either themselves or via their account being compromised. It's not particularly common, but nor is it impossible and could present a good targe.
Also don't forget the recent-ish trend of "cops with Punisher logos."
I agree. A schema language that can be used to codegen has to be very rich, and uses of it have to be very detailed. UML mostly only found a niche in writing docs, in which case it would be better to generate the UML from sources, which then requires having access to ASTs or alike. It's no wonder that UML is mostly hand-coded and only for docs, in which case UML is a bit heavy-duty.
The reason you can't get the images you want from it is not because of the noise diffusion process (after all, this is probably the closest similarity to how a human gets a flash of creativity) but the lack of a large language model in SD - it was deliberately scaled down so the result could fit in consumer GPUs.

DALLE-2 uses a much larger language model and you can explain more complicated concepts to it. Googles Imagen likewise (not released though).

It's mostly a matter of scaling to get this better.

The part that doesn't make the US military industrial complex money and send countless young men into the meat grinder.
Calculus (and the rest of math) is taught because development of human civilization depends on some people knowing it and developing it further. And if you don't start early it's hard to catch up not to mention developing it further.

And it's also training your brain (but that can be done by other things like puzzles or games).
The "Khrushchev’s mistake" part.
Close. The US paid upwards of $2 million to SpaceX to provide the devices (~$1,500 / unit). The idea of them being a donation was typical marketing from Musk.

The French Revolution was decidedly atheist and leftwing. Most French thinkers of the time looked down on the American revolution and it's Christian values. The French revolution is more closely related to Marxism than what people generally refer to when they talk about Western roots.

Similarly, Germany's Nazi party was highly anti-religious and anti Western values. Hitler said that, after the Jews, the Christians would be next on the chopping block. The Nazi party explicitly sought out to destroy the Christian values of universal human dignity and the responsibility to care for the poor and needy.

The fascist movement similarly rejected Christian Western roots. Giovanni Gentile, father of fascism, was decidedly atheist. His influence, H.W.F Hegel, was also a strong influence of Karl Marx.

I don't know much about the history of the Spanish inquisition, but most of the examples you gave were of people in the west who were actively rejecting Western tradition. Not coincidentally, they all came up with something far worse and far more evil. When you achieve a local maximum as great as we have, it's virtually impossible to make any revolutionary change that is not catastrophic.
I've had in my mind an idea for a short story based on this idea. YouTube starts putting a particular band on their "watch next" list, then the band schedules a gig in town, ensuring that they both think "Wow, I have to go!"
My teachers were moving away from date memorization back in the 90s. These things were mostly approached as a lecture that talked about exactly what you wrote about WW2. Is your experience outdated or did I just get lucky? I went to American public school if it matters.
Even if that is the case with some, it would still have the self-fulfilling prophecy component.
Nationalization might work but if it were 1950-1970's US Gov. Our government used to be so badass. I have no trust in the current government's abilities and specifically the current administration.

We have that dude. Voice of America: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_of_America

No one, atleast domestically gives a shit about it. Which is just beautiful! The most American thing ever.
The most unsettling thing is that a megaphone this big exists. We need to break up tech companies.
Shouldn't this be very easy in C? With static linking, you're vulnerable if you're linking the package. With dynamic linking, you're vulnerable if you're importing the specific functions. Otherwise, you're not vulnerable - there's no other legal way to call a function in C.

Now, if you're memory mapping some file and jumping into it to call that function, good luck. You're already well into undefined behavior territory.

Now, for lazy loading, I'm assuming the answer is the same as any other runtime path analysis tool: it's up to you to make sure all relevant code paths are actually running during the analysis. Presumably your tests should be written in such a way as to trigger the loading of all dependencies.

I think there's really no other reasonable way to handle this, though I can't say I've worked with either GutHub Ultimate or Rezilion, so maybe I'm missing something.
Yup, take a $44b tesla share price and/or reputation hit, or pay $44b and at least have an asset to show for it.

Actually, scratch the reputation bit. That's already toast.

Kudos to Twitter.

SEPOS, the OS that runs in the Secure Enclave in Apple devices, is actually fork of L4Ka::Pistachio. It's called L4-embedded, and was developed by National ICT Australia for their Darbat project, a port of Darwin/XNU to L4. Running macOS on L4 sounds cool, but that project didn't go anywhere, for whatever reason.

Fortunately the police didn't shoot him dead in his front yard. Today's community law enforcement is out of control when it comes to common sense. With their attitude of "How dare you criticize us!" and their huge hero egos, it's a wonder all of us aren't scared to call the cops for help.
Yeah, that provision seems suss as hell
If you're innocent, more information about what happened is more likely to exonerate you than incriminate you. If you're guilty, the extra data is more likely to incriminate you.
That is a very good point that I had actually forgotten. Yeah tons of jobs are fake, sometimes to boost how you look, sometimes to fake out the competition (let them overhire and burn up their runway.
The #1 danger with AI is it's an absolute survellieance machine, so the principles should revolve around that: freedom, rights and privacy, to kneecap that surveillance machine in advance. WH could start by reminding us the three inalienable rights this country was founded upon are life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, and derive the AI framework from there. Instead it revolves around "equity" as if it's some waffly corporate pamphlet written by a sleepy woke manager in a 3rd tier firm.
I don't know what is the target of this risc-v implementation:

- desktop performance

- laptop performance

- server performance

- mobile performance

All that to say, in any case, this is good.

Oh, keep compilers for backward and legacy compatibility, but risc-v is made for assembly to rule (with probably some high-level scripts language interpreters written directly in assembly)

Probably something like "I no longer have time to fool around with trivial things like Twitter. Ignore it ever happened, since I'm now using my vast intellect teaching world leaders how to end their wars".
You’re talking like using jargon makes something a bad explanation, but maybe you just aren’t the audience? Why not use words like that if it’s a super basic concept to your intended audience?
I don't understand, doesn't most languages these days have a REPL?
It's pretty galling for Elon to tout how charitable he is for allowing the US government to buy a large number of Starlink terminals at full price to send to Ukraine.
I'm not actually sure they would have made him go through with it vs. just pay some large fine to Twitter if he was insistent on wanting to get out. The issue is the road to get to that point would have run through a LOT of discovery and legal wrangling that was already starting to drag out some suspicious-looking stuff.

Maybe it's all nothing, but even so, fighting anything in court is a punishment of its own.
It's difficult to restrain a healthy adult without simultaneously endangering his life especially without unduly risking your own, except where you have a significant size advantage.

Consider it from an evolutionary perspective: a pinned animal is a dead animal. So we should expect animals to resist being trapped to the point of killing themselves / dying from the stress of fighting to break free. It's well known to be true for many animals and its also true for humans.

Anytime a person is forcefully restrained there is a risk of death.
Throughout the years I'm learning that all of our leaders and major institutions are corrupt and flawed. We're just lucky that there was enough wealth to go around to placate people in the past few decades but now we're reaching a point where there isn't and people aren't happy and won't be happy until a major shift happens.
And we should. In the past several years Google has subsumed w3c and rams its non-standards through at neck-breaking speed.
Buy the rumor, sell the news. The graph has a gap now, curious how it fills it later in the week.

> We could train your brains with something fun like chess practice, or something useful like programming classes and statistics.

except probability and stats does require calculus. maybe not at the high school level but if you are doing it in college it's almost certainly going to have some needing of calculus.
The next 'move' for cheaters is to use chess computers in a way that passes 'Chess Turing Test' and makes cheating indistinguishable from normal human play under analysis.

When there is money in the game, there is incentive to cheat.

> The report says dozens of grandmasters have been caught cheating on the website, including four of the top-100 players in the world who confessed.

There are probably smart cheaters already playing who are able to evade detection.
Must be a bitter pill to swallow given how the markets have performed since his bid, which was already at a premium. Huge win for investors.
I feel like it also depends on the position. I have a buddy with a philosophy degree from a Ivy League, who wants to "Learn to code". Even with experience I see him getting into a high technical systems programming job very low without a degree. And I see his only future after his code bootcamp as a javascript code monkey, which is becoming more and more saturated, with lower pay and more work.

I tell him alot since I want to be honest, I don't know how much longer extremely basic, low end website/api development will stick around. With Github Copilot currently I can see it almost replaced, but with what we get into in the future, I don't think we'll need people who at best call an api and display the data on a website with no other thought or architecture.
I hope Congress could pass a law ending qualified immunity.

You can have dielectric coatings on a mirror that increase the reflectivity to >99.9% (and over a wide range of wavelengths). You can of course get a lot more 9's if you only care about a narrow band.

Interesting piece. It highlights how it's hard to differentiate between someone genuinely playing at a level higher, and a cheater. A few things I noted from this article:

1. The driving force behind the original accusations is that Magnus felt his opponent wasn't "exerting" himself enough, compared to other young prodigies.

2. Chess.com's case is that his results are "statistically extraordinary."

3. There is a history of cheating

4. Allegations that he admitted cheating privately (though it's not clear to whom)

1, 2, and 3 could easily be cause for suspicion; however, that's not the same as evidence. The one crucial piece absent from this article is any suggestion of how he cheated.

Without providing a means, I find this piece premature and questionable. That said, I don't know anything about chess, lot alone cheating at the master level. So maybe the "how" is common sense and not difficult?

And of course, there's also this:

> The report also addresses the relationship during the saga between Carlsen and Chess.com, which is buying Carlsen’s “Play Magnus” app for nearly $83 million.

A great many things that humans depend on every day require some understanding of calculus. If we stop teaching teenagers the vast amount of knowledge that humans have accumulated over centuries then progress will stop.

That definitely makes me feel better about that process then, so thanks :-)
A lot of the stuff you learn in school is basically just a peek under the hood of how something works. So in the best case you leave with kind of a shallow sample of quite a few really deep subjects.

This shallow knowledge is fairly useless by itself, for sure, beyond the very practical basics, but it gives you a bit of a hook into a variety of core disciplines that you can later - maybe much later - use to connect to other things you do go deep on, even and perhaps especially in completely unrelated fields.

I think really this is the value of an education done right, almost making you aware of what you don't know and giving you just enough context on it that it's not a completely unknown unknown, or unapproachable or unknowable 'magic'.

So by itself any one thing you learn might be pretty useless, all together as a big picture it starts to get a lot more useful. But to get to that big picture you just have to grind through the hard, small, useless seeming stuff piece by piece!
Of all the places with some background on the LAPD, "O.J.: Made in America" from 2016 covered the major race-relations problems the LAPD had in the 20th century. It was pretty eye-opening.

I'd be interested to know if there are any documentaries focused purely on the LAPD, however.
Very beautiful. Of course now you have to deal with xargs' wacky syntax and options for string interpolation, which is probably why people don't do this.

Compare:

for i in {1..5}; do echo file_$i; done

with

seq 5 | xargs -I % echo file_%

I had to look up the manpage for xarg's -I, while the for loop uses a small number of orthogonal features entirely in my "working set".

This is also why people "uselessly" use cat.
SQLite's quality is due to the DO-178B compliance that has been achieved with "test harness 3" (TH3).

Dr. Hipp's efforts to perfect TH3 likely did lower his happiness, but all the Android users stopped reporting bugs.

"The 100% MCD tests, that’s called TH3. That’s proprietary. I had the idea that we would sell those tests to avionics manufacturers and make money that way. We’ve sold exactly zero copies of that so that didn’t really work out... We crashed Oracle, including commercial versions of Oracle. We crashed DB2. Anything we could get our hands on, we tried it and we managed to crash it... I was just getting so tired of this because with this sort of thing, it’s the old joke of, you get 95% of the functionality with the first 95% of your budget, and the last 5% on the second 95% of your budget. It’s kind of the same thing. It’s pretty easy to get up to 90 or 95% test coverage. Getting that last 5% is really, really hard and it took about a year for me to get there, but once we got to that point, we stopped getting bug reports from Android."

It is very easy indeed. Stockfish would be an immense help. Best moves are calculated progressively, that is they are refined over a few seconds. Inexperienced players are given away by delaying over obvious moves waiting for the best move. It is definitely not rocket science. You can download and run Stockfish yourself. I think chess.com possibly runs it in the browser.
If I'm Twitter's board the first step will be to ask him to put the money into escrow before agreeing to anything else.
And that, in a nutshell, is why we can't have nice things.
The fact that an athlete in a competitive sport was allowed to partake in an event even after admitting to cheating not only once, but twice, is outrageous in itself.
Agree, but it helps to remember that it’s a product of its time. Feels like we’re overdue for a similar piece poking fun at Node/JavaScript and all of its foibles.
Best practices are subjective. What is best practice is for C is not the same as Python.

SQL DBs provide consistency guarantees around mutating linked lists. It’s not hard to do that in code and use any data storage format.

Imo software engineers have made software “too literal” and generated a bunch of “products” to pitch in meetings. This is all constraints on electron state given an application. A whole lot of books are sold about unit tests but I know from experience a whole lot of critical software systems have zero modern test coverage. A lot of myths about the necessity of this and that to software have been hyped to sell stock in software companies the last couple decades.
