Most useful takeaway from this article: If you choose to play the lotto, don't use cute numbers. Odds are high that other people will too, and you'll have to split the pot.

No, there are two teams. That's Joe. His job and budget is to secure everything. That's John. His job and budget are to get us access to everything. Joe and John work for the same group, but they don't really work together. Although I can see John looking at what Joe is about to publish a few days before.

Wait until you hear how wall street firms can have investments that are directly correlated to stock price and inversely correlated to stock price on the same stock!
Semi-related: One of the people on my team uses a font that displays things like ">=" as "≥". I was a bit confused the first time I saw it.
“Our operators have to know they can count on the commercial data,” he added. “In places like Ukraine, the data will flow. So we’re working on a culture change.”
I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have a job and have people talk shit about me being a diversity hire, then not have a job and people just talk shit for a different reason.
yeah, lets equate someone getting a limb ripped off with allowing developers to have local admin rights.

That's everything that's wrong with the security mindset.
2016, and https://langui.sh/2015/07/24/osx-clang-include-lib-search-pa... (linked from the GitHub thread) seems to explain it better - if I understand right:

- Apple, in 2015, deprecated the version of OpenSSL they used to ship with the OS, which was the really old version 0.9.8. (The alternative is either Apple-specific crypto APIs or bringing your own OpenSSL.) The specific way they did that was to remove the development headers, but keep the runtime libraries around, so existing code would work but new code could not compile.

- For some reason, Apple's compiler searches /usr/local/include before /usr/include but their linker searches /usr/lib before /usr/local/lib.

- Homebrew's "link" operation puts libraries in /usr/local.

Therefore, if you were sufficiently unlucky, you could install a modern, up-to-date, secure OpenSSL from Homebrew in /usr/local via "brew link openssl," and have that used for the compile phase only, and end up actually using the deprecated, insecure OpenSSL in /usr, and you wouldn't notice anything had gone wrong.
The pipeline is leaky, with different leak rates for different groups. But it is leaky over the whole length. This tries to get people to think about the leaks in the second half. This doesn't invalidate that we also should fix the other leaks, but the existence of leaks not addressed doesn't invalidate this attempt either.
Just an FYI, in 2008 PLT Scheme had a language with static typing and macros capable of comptime-like behavior, called Typed Scheme. It lives on today in Racket.

But yeah, dynamically typed languages have been doing this for decades, particularly prevalent in Perl circles.

Ah, I wondered if they rolled their own SQL parser, but no, I now see the sqlite.go in the repo and all is made clear

What are the inputs and outputs of most potential fusion energy projects?
Sure, but how much heat would it take to tip an ecosystem into collapse? Someone could build a fusion plant that just creates CO2 for a decade out of seaweed or something. What I'm saying is that the scale of power available to us would be changed, and there will be consequences to that. Some good, but not many people seem to be thinking about the potential bad consequences. Maybe we could melt glaciers to get drinking water, would that be a good thing?
And yet what Mr. Tao misses is his own assumption that the drawing of each number is truly independent.
With regard to GPT3, it doesn't know what bits are. I'm guessing doesn't know what bytes are either, and that it operates on the level of some subset of unicode codepoints, with one input-layer and output-layer neuron for each. But I could be wrong, a quick google does not immediately confirm or refute.
For login, i also think that Auth0 is a great choice. For subscription, you can use Paypal. For 2HAC Studio, we are using Paypal for our Google Workspace addons.
Maybe we had a bad consultant, I don't know. Splunk were the ones managing and configuring it.
Document the times, what happened, entirely without any emotion. Just facts. Make a judgement call whether you trust that managers boss to handle the situation or not. If not then HR would be the correct answer. Just know that nobody will be happy. Not the manager, not their boss or those above them and likely not the victim if they did not want any drama or fallout from the event. HR protect companies, not people so be ready for management to handle this poorly if you decide to intervene. Have you asked your friend what they would like to see happen? They may say they do not remember because they do not want you to do anything unless they were drinking very heavily and truly do not remember. Did anyone else witness this and are they willing to take action? There is power in numbers.
The DEI community is basically a cult at this point. Anything that goes against their dogma or preferred narrative is blasphemy.

Pointing to the (fairly obvious) impact of the pipeline issues goes against their dogma and the grift that goes with it.
I'm not doing embedded systems in PHP. I'm not doing high-performance computing. I'm not doing operating systems. I'm not doing an enterprise database. I'm not writing the JVM in PHP. I'm probably not even doing a desktop app in PHP.

DD neutrons are much less damaging, as they produce far less helium by (n,alpha) reactions than DT neutrons. The D3He reaction produces no neutrons at all.

The reactor is cylindrical rather than toroidal, and doesn't need to breed tritium, so one could imagine this neutron absorbing shielding being something that could easily be slid out and replaced, if needed.

No, they are not recovering remaining thermal energy "by a heat exchanger". They are allowing the plasma to expand against a magnetic field, doing work, which is collected as electrical energy. I've been told they reported 95% efficiency at recovering the energy of compression by this means.
Maybe they're expecting a large drop-off in daily users over the next 6 months and are trying to cushion the expected drop in revenue by jacking up the number of ads.
Personal speculations, but it seems obvious that the raw amount of energy available to civilization would increase dramatically in the long run. What are the consequences of that? They are not necessarily all good.
Are you referring to chromebooks?
"In Brussels the following year, SHG UK Representative, Kedell Worboys, along with Director for Latin America & Caribbean, Directorate-General for International Cooperation and Development, Jolita Butkeviciene, signed a Financing Agreement for the Territorial Allocation of the 11th European Development Fund (EDF 11). As a result, €21.5 million was allocated to St Helena to support the delivery of the SHG Digital Strategy through the realisation of the submarine cable to enable faster and more reliable internet connectivity on the Island.[154]"

I don’t think that is a good example, because the harm in that case is the embarrassment and you can achieve the same results in 10 minutes with any image editing software.

For AI image generation to cause harm specifically, the harm has to be consequent to the additional realism.

IMO most of the harm from AI is likely to come from people not believing things that are real, and dismissing reality with “that’s just a deepfake”.
I’m afraid this might be too little, too late. But regardless whether I’m right or wrong, we all should welcome a widely used language trying to become a little more safe.
>…distressed about jobs potentially disappearing

Anyone’s job can “potentially disappear” at any time and often without public notice and drama. I know former colleagues who showed up to work on a Monday morning at a company that had been operating profitably for decades to find the office shuttered and the company out of business just because the real estate it owned was more valuable to the owners than the company itself. No one at any level below the ownership group and CEO/CFO had any idea it was coming. Just wake up like another day and boom—a thousand people out of work.

If Twitter folk were worried to the point of health implications they have had six months to make a change. I know folks that would have given precious body parts for that kind of notice.

>what year this new “fragility” kicked in…

Apparently some year prior to 2022.
Two things.

1) World helium-3 reserves mean they can only be an irrelevant amount of total energy. Otherwise it's just D-D or D-p fusion with extra steps (and all the neutron problems involved).

2) The magnetic energy recovery can at best reach parity with the thermal, which makes it yet another solar freakin' roadways if not a theranos. They play sleight of hand with this in all their marketing materials which indicates they know it's a show stopper but do not want anyone paying attention to it.

The slick marketing, the sexy story, the massive hole in their story, and the startup posturing put them with every other scam startup that promises the world and then folds after an IPO with VCs disappearing with a the later investors' money.
I totally understand that ripple effect and am very familiar with Most Favored X when it comes to unit pricing of a tangible good (e.g. xx,xxx physical servers with a particular SKU), but in this case we were talking about a SaaS product where overages were disputed. Nearly every vendor would jump at the chance to discount additional commitments or support at the ‘expense’ of waiving some past overages.

I have a hard time suggesting such a thing, because I find JMESPath incredibly inferior to jq's expressiveness, but if you're in the AWS ecosystem much, you may enjoy https://github.com/jmespath/jp#readme which uses the same query language as does awscli (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-f...). That may at least pay more dividends than keeping jq's language in your head where it will only ever be used by jq
I just wish they would stop talking about fighting systemic racism while literally being the greatest institution of systemic racism in the world. I can kind of see where they’re coming from and the benefits they have in some ways, but it’s incredible the same people who enforce racial quotas for a living give condescending seminars on how to be anti racist which people are mandated to sit though and be educated on.

When the DEI people say “hey hire out of this HBCU, not out of this elite college with tons of legacy admissions which there is almost no pathway to from a school in a poor neighbourhood” that’s not all evil and terror.

Yeah exactly. I now live in very rural Australia - I'm over 100 miles from the nearest traffic light - and got a Polestar in June. Theres a rapid charger 10 miles away and whenever I'm there range anxiety is always the thing people ask me about. Does it suck having to wait for a charger if someone is using it - sure, but the other day traffic was way backed up in Yass for gas. It's all relative. I've done 800km in a day on two stop for coffee charges, and tomorrow we'll do 500km up to New Castle with one stop. Its not perfect but its not at all the issue I thought it could be.
A real-life 1200 should be able to play blindfold. Online ratings are very inflated.
I mine at 58 years old (this year). I'm not sure I'm mature enough for it. It's a clunky, yet seductive slab of glass, what with that persistent lure of connectivity to the world, and access to the sum of all human knowledge.

More horsepower than the Cray, without the cooling, raised floor, maintenance or power bills, and yet the NSA doesn't object to me owning one myself... could it be the tracking it affords them?

It came configured to connect almost effortlessly to a cluster of malevolent artificial intelligences that, when combined, put HAL or SkyNet to shame... the FAANG "engagement" Algorithms.

Upon receiving this piece of sexy science fiction, I removed the lures to said "social media", disabled almost all notifications, and got used to it. I get notified almost inaudibly when I get a text, and a ring with a phone call.

I do like the flashlight mode (which sounded silly, but works out quite well) and the camera is better than my Casio QV-10, but not as good as my Nikon D5100, except that its always with me, which makes it the best camera.
"In which people who have never used a language with compile-time expressions try Zig and think it's novel"

Not knocking Zig, I think it's swell, but it wasn't near the first language with this feature. D comes to mind, and C++ has it now with "constexpr" and "consteval".
Interesting,

From the general responses it sounds like we got unlucky with a dud implementation.
Yes, it is accurate to say that all Mailmark barcodes are Data Matrix, but not all Data Matrix are Mailmark. In the document I linked they explain the specifics of the logical standard you mention.

The US Postal Service also uses a DataMatrix on some of their stamps, but not all. I just looked up an official specification document for the USPS codes, but couldn't find it. I did find this page dedicated to postal barcodes. It looks like the USPS ones may more accurately be called IBI Lite?

https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/United_States_Postage_Meter_St...

Can anyone chime in with the security measures present on non-barcoded stamps? I have a Global Forever Stamp on the desk in front of me, and there's nothing that is visible to the naked-eye.

While we're on the subject of barcodes and shipping, check out MaxiCode! I've scanned hundreds of thousands of those little bulls-eyes.

You guys did a great job with jq so thank you for everything you've put into it. It's a tool I use multiple times a day, every day. Also, I love your documentation page!

When I saw the comment "why is the latest release so old" my thought was "because it's perfect".
Yeah, discrete simulations that show things like exponential growth are basically just numerical calculus.
I'm haunted by the possibility that humans might (at least half) catch up, too. When I look at how AI beats humans, I can't help thinking that AI shows us that human narcissism holds humans back. We don't want to look stupid, or mediocre - we don't want to make moves that are hard to explain the value of clearly.

In Go, we can't make ourselves spread our moves around the board as much as we should, we tend not to choose a maybe good move elsewhere over a clearly powerful move where the board is developed, for example.

Maybe there's a pattern to the moves AI chooses that is also a pattern humans can see without running every line; we're just reluctant to choose moves that we can't clearly justify in the shorter run.
Subtle. I like it!

I can kind of see where they’re coming from and the benefits they have in some ways, but it’s incredible the same people who enforce racial quotas for a living give condescending seminars on how to be anti-racist.

I think there is some social good in equity at any cost just so society doesn’t devolve into race riots because of rightfully pissed off people whose families never got a fair shot to ever do things like grow generational wealth.
That's like a small swimming pools worth of whatever it is. Feels pretty insignificant.
I joke but it's serious, governments or other offices wanting into your bedroom to verify if you qualify as regards occupational opportunities/requirements to prove it is a thing historically. Literally, give them enough rope and they'll try pushing it.

"
If the psychological diagnosis confirms the individual’s homosexuality, an official, permanent exemption is issued for him. More often than not, a thorough rectal exam follows the mental evaluation. The physician’s observations providing proof of occurred same-sex intercourse is then written formally and submitted to the military. In some cases, further detail-oriented exams come into play, so the decision-makers can be certain of the applicant’s “queerness," making sure they are genuine, not a false pretense to escape the service.
"

It's honestly a disgusting overreach whether you're trying to include or exclude people of whatever sexual proclivity. We can become like Iran, but for any ideology, given enough time and institutionalized dogmatism.
This idea would make a lot more sense if there was a big parking lot for everyone to keep one car, but outside the development. So I can walk around this mini-town, but also bicycle over to my car when I want to go somewhere.

It is a pipeline problem, but there are very strong social and political vested interests that really don't want to admit it. The whole DEI industry leeches off productive companies by setting impossible standards of 50% female software engineers or perfect racial representation. If we admit that this is unrealistic, many DEI departments will no longer have a reason to exist. To tweak the popular Upton Sinclair quote, it's difficult to get an industry to admit that a problem is solved, when their salary depends on not solving it.
Well, guess what happened when Sears implemented an internal free market system:

> Major innovation needs collaboration, not competition. For innovation, internal markets have the same problem as hierarchical bureaucracies. Managers vote their resources for innovations that bolster their current fiefdoms and careers. The safest strategy is to stick to the status quo. Ms. Kimes’ article gives multiple examples where competing managers at Sears looked after their own units at the expense of the interests of the firm as a whole.

Now, what was that you were saying about central planning?
80-20.

As a programmer, Copilot scares and excites me - not because I think it will become better than me at what I do in the short term (though in the long term - probably!) - but because I can already see how a well-structured use of such a tool could do a whole lot (80%?) of what I do. Mostly the easier stuff, mostly the relaxing-yet-tedious-time-filler stuff, but still - most of it. And it also crucially does much of what I did back when I was a junior/intermediate programmer.

Once this system is setup right - which capitalism basically guarantees it will - that's gonna suddenly cut quite a lot of my billable hours (80%?) and quite a lot the simpler work typically done by less-experienced programmers (80% of jobs?)

Granted, new capabilities like this also will lower the cost of creation, and thus the demands of the market are likely to grow. And it's possible that the few tricky things that AIs aren't so great at might even increase in value, since they will linchpin so much other opportunity. But will many people be replaced? Oh hell yes. And leaping that gap from an amateur relying on AIs to an expert surpassing them is going to be harder and harder, with no market to pay people in the in-between - they'll have to just be relatively-unpaid hobbyists til they develop the drive to jump to expertise.

Anyone suggesting AIs will just outright replace the film/photography/programming industry immediately is disingenuous. But even with only the currently known capabilities, it's not hard to imagine that these could eat up a dominant chunk of the work that's currently done, even while it expands the capabilities and thus scope of what will soon be possible. Like digital photography, it's gonna both devour and expand the industry, with a resulting much smaller niche of expert creators and a massive very-accessible dirt-cheap general public access that becomes the majority of the new market. 80-20. Everyone's about to become an artist, director, programmer, and everything else these things can enable, at an effective skill level that we normally consider at least "intermediate". We might still have that expert niche a bit longer... but give it a few more years..? ;)
I don't think it's such a big issue but it is quite surprising to read, since these concepts have been known and used for many decades :)
Python, TypeScript, C#, Rust, Golang - none of these seem dull to me, though all languages have some frustration.
Typescript, Golang, Rust are all relatively new. That means only a few years ago they were niche, no one used them. Rust still is niche. They could have died in popularity like the other languages you mentioned have, but they haven’t, it’s impossible to predict what will succeed and what will die.

If you only stay with what is popular nothing new becomes popular.l and you become mediocre.

Popular isn’t always the right choice. There’s the situation things are only popular because they are popular. React seems to fit that now, it’s the default as everyone else is using it even if there’s newer alternatives.

Innovation only happens by doing things different.

Choose what is appropriate, not what is popular or what is new.
This exact thing happened Putin and see how it is going in the end Europe is doing ok and Russia is actually collapsing.
Hah, funny you bring that issue up. When Trump was president, indeed other countries regarded the USA as having stopped being rational. I can’t even begin to tell you how bewildering it was to watch that shitshow from over the pond — let alone the storming of the capitol, and Trump not being declared an enemy of the people after. That was the lowest point in your history. There was just so much lost that day.

What’s worse, when he’ll inevitably be elected again, our trust in the US as a partner will be gone completely.

Of course that is not a guarantee of anything, but worth a shot to attempt account recovery again if you have an option to try one of those things.
