That's some wishful thinking right there.

Though author admits that DX is worse right now. But then there are frameworks that abstract edge overhead.

Ok, but abstracted overhead is still worse than no overhead.

And then there's modeling your data without a centralized database. There's no world where it leads to better DX.

Mmm yes, this one reminds me of the microservices debacle from a few years ago about when does your monolith technically become a microservice. I can't find the link, but I think we were unable to clearly define at which point your monolith has become a true 'SoA' group of microservices.
Laws never prevent crime they(no gender they) only provide a mechanism to punish people who violate them. Given that there isn't a lot of existing legal framework around crypto or crypto trading it may be difficult to punish Celsius Execs. I'm no lawyer I just play one on board games. In truth the list unscrupulous crypto firms seems to grow daily. By the time crypto becomes safe and energy efficient it will be just as cumbersome as real money.

There were attempts to introduce artificial scarcity with loyalty programs. I used to be a more frequent flyer and still fly enough that I will pay a premium (up to a point) to get the benefits - upgrades and free-personal travel. Locking in business-traveler loyalty has long been a key to profitability in airlines.

Citizens in my country lost it all in the 90s. Inflation was out of control, politicians were desperate and at some point somebody decided to simply freeze everybody's assets.
Approval voting fails in a situation that is pretty common in Europe (e.g. French presidential elections) - you have center left, center right, far left and far right candidate. If you vote for center left/right, you have to decide whether to also approve center right/left candidate, which may be contrary to your values, corrupt and incompetent, but at least not communist or fascist. That is why later-no-harm property of IRV is important.
Sure, that would be great. It would also be great if my socks would conveniently pair themselves off and get into my dresser when I was done with laundry. In reality, systems operate according to rules. In the case of people, they will always * act in their actual or perceived self-interest.

The whole point of relatively frequent elections is that we know politicians do this. We get a little honeymoon period when they are first elected, a little honeymoon period before the next election activity, and a period in the middle where they do whatever they can do satisfy whatever internal reward function they have. I am all about encouraging them to do the things I like for as long as possible. This is a thing I like.

> Categorically, my mind isn't visual with things like math. It's more process oriented. Visualizing DFS on thought paths would probably be very short lived for me; like maybe I could imagine an outcome being possible but I wouldn't fluidly move down that graph node-to-node the way it was visualized that time. Another thing is that while I am very process oriented and use process to deal with things like emotions, I am still a very emotional human being. It would be tough to separate myself from that trait without some metaphorical grease.

What if you used a piece of paper to keep track of computation, or even better: custom written software? And then on top of it, used some techniques to remove time from interfering with computation (something which can also be experienced on psychedelics)?

There is a difference I think between getting a lesser or more reserved level of friendliness and getting outright rudeness and hostility.
MSRs have an advantage though, which is that a) fuel melt is obviously not a problem and b) if something goes out of control you can pull the drain plug and drain the entire core into multiple crit-safe storage pools. Dividing the core up makes it easier to handle the decay heat, though I'm not sure exactly what any of the current designs do in detail. Fission product gasses are also not soluble in most of the fuels for MSRs which makes it easy to filter them out, which reduces the decay heat to an extent and also mitigates the reactivity feedback effect from xenon that caused the Chernobyl disaster.

Not that it's all sunshine and roses, hot salts are awfully corrosive and that's been the primary engineering challenge on every MSR design I'm aware of.
Not a disagreement, but only to point out bay area isn't just SF. Go south a bit and there isn't really a worry of getting car windows broken either and also plenty close to nature.
damn..that's so much money. And they will be able to cash out of it when the inevitable question comes up of what they will do with the loot, enough to live comfortably even if they cannot cash out all of it.
Lol. The last time I was in Paris, I must have lost 20-30€ of metro tickets. I kept the tickets in the same pocket as my smart phone, and when I took it out of my pocket the tickets would fall out with it. Having lived there on and off over the years I still have the yellow and later purple tickets, some of them unused. Anyway, ideally it would be nice to have an NFC style solution where you would be charged on exit (for the metro/RER at least) so that you would not have to figure out the proper fare ahead of time. Bus would be a flat rate. And while we are at it, make the fare system simpler (though some old-timers may remember when you needed multiple tickets for long, multi-zone bus rides -- at least those days are gone).
Automated machines distribute cards for a few months already. I was used to take tickets by 10, and got a card last time.

Obviously the parents have no responsibility at all.....

How about kids don't use devices unattended.
The parent comment may be talking only about the network or Citrix components in the critical path. You also have to wait to get keyboard input (often 10s to many 10s of ms) and for double-buffering or composition (you might get updates and render during frame T, flip buffers to reach the OS compositor for frame T+1, have the compositor take another frame to render that and send it to the screen for frame T+2, though this is a bad case for a compositor, you may be paying the double buffering or flu latency twice). And it can take a while for modern LCD screens to process the inputs (changes towards the bottom of the screen take about a frame longer to display) and to physically switch the pixels.

120ms end-to-end without Citrix would be quite achievable with many modern systems (older systems (and programs written for them) were often not powerful enough to do some of the things that add latency to modern systems). So if Citrix 120ms we already get up to your ‘not immediate’ number.

But I think you’re also wrong in that eg typing latency can be noticeable even if you don’t observe a pause between pressing a key and the character appearing. If I use google docs[1] for example, I feel like I am having to move my fingers through honey to type - the whole experience just feels sluggish.

[1] this is on a desktop. On the iPad app I had multiple-second key press-to-display latency when adding a suggestion in the middle of a medium-sized doc.
My guess is that it was less consistently profitable than a more typical cabin arrangement.

The reality is it's harder to fully book a plane like the one you describe, than one with a distribution of seats that more closely resembles the distribution of the commercial airline customer population, especially when you consider how to pass on the cost of spiky jet fuel to the people in the cabin.

On a plan with 8 business class seats, you can pass on most of that price to those 8, and you'll still fill the rest of the cabin and make money on the flight. With "only" 30 business class seats, it's a different story. Missing 6 seats might cause you to lose money.

I don't really have an opinion on the matter and I think it's a fair question to consider, but I'll note that the NRC obviously disagrees. At least for now, they could always change their mind.

So, stackoverflow, not wikipedia, then?
It is kind of the opposite now, at least in the US/SV. Programmers are “Software Engineers” and many programming-adjacent roles like support are given titles like “Product Support Engineer”

Personally I think Software Engineer is a better descriptor of what we do than Programmer/Analyst, though of course not everybody with the title is actually engineering systems.

There is an addictive and trippy quality to this and it is yet to hit mainstream -- The art itself is stunning but it goes beyond that, the ability to nudge it around and make variations to it is incredible. now add the fact that you can train it with your own content. people are going to go bonkers with this and it's going to open up a lot of debates too.
It was really. I worked at the beeb when it was being worked on and it was very much tyring to strip back all the cludgy layers built up and get real interaction with the device, much the same way as the original did. Yes, there were Pi's but there's a lot more to the stack in that.
Hopefully they don't overheat (that was part of my testing I helped with :) )
As for it's efficacy, it definitely sparked a few minds but I don't think anywhere near the effect the original had. There's so many more distraction nowadays for kids too.

I can't help but mention that there are two dominant schools of thought regarding cancer treatments:

1. The Somatic theory of cancer ('bad genes/out-of-control cellular replication')

2. The metabolic theory of cancer ('cancer cells ferment blood sugar for energy via an ancient emergency metabolic pathway')

Both have merit, but a complete occlusion of one would be bad.

I wrote an open letter, long ago, to a wealthy person who was on the board of a cancer research center, suggesting they read a book and fund the key research scientist:

https://josh.works/mike-clayville-can-have-a-huge-impact-on-...

I thought of the metabolic theory of cancer as I opened this page, because all cancers have a similar reliance upon certain energy generation pathways, which implies a corresponding vulnerability for treatment.

Some people find it interesting enough to click through, read the article, and to read the book.
"...as well as the conditions they operate in."

I'm in no doubt that's true. I'd only add that I'm glad I went through the education system when I did even though it wasn't perfect.
Sure people can. They simply have to encrypt and hold your data for ransom or any of the many other schemes to blackmail you. The crypto enables the perp to get that ransom across the border and evade punishment. If it wasn't for crypto such schemes are much harder to pull off.

On topic… calling switching to Linux an "upgrade" is pretty presumptuous. It's not an upgrade for someone whose business relies on programs or technologies which are still only available on Windows - for many of those people, that's probably why they're on Windows in the first place.

It could have worked. The problem always was that Obama was so enthralled with the concept of bipartisanship that he didn't listen to his opponents when they told the press *in 2009* that their only goal for the next four years was to destroy his presidency.

So he always bent over for the Republicans, often sabotaging things like Obamacare by pre-negotiating with his own administration to remove things he thought the Republicans would dislike.

Of course, the Republicans didn't care what he did. They were going to oppose everything they could get away with opposing. (Their voters did still expect some governance in those days, instead of the full-time vengeance mode they now expect.)

"Stateless" is probably clearer. "Serverless" usually refers to services from cloud providers where your code is run on demand rather than having a server that is idling around (to use a sibling comment's phrase). I don't really care for "serverless" as a term because there are still servers (as you point out) and there are other architectures and cloud services that seem equally serverless that aren't usually called that.

I totally disagree with this. Early gaming consoles (~70s) took off roughly a decade before early PCs (~80s). Yet many of the people who bought the latter had little interest in the former. They were two completely distinct markets (with some, but clearly not extensive overlap).

We've had many people tell us (often on Hacker News actually) that they're not super interested in VR gaming, but are very interested in VR computing.

(I myself am one of these people BTW; despite working in VR for half a decade now, I have almost no interest in VR gaming, and wouldn't be interested in the field were it not for its enormous potential as a new thinking tool).
We’re talking about organizations where there are thousands of people all writing code.

The tricky part is making all that code add up to something meaningful, though, right?

A thousand developers diligently and efficiently working away in their IDEs building completely the wrong thing is a terrible waste, and not something that can be solved by just having a staff+ ‘fixer’ come along behind and clean up.
Or make it over the counter and pay the $500.

Note that it's possible to make wikipedia substantially smaller if you're happy to use more aggressive compression algorithms.

Kiwix divides the data into chunks and adds various indexes and stuff to allow searching data and fast access, even on slow CPU devices. But if you can live with slow loading, you can probably halve the storage space required, or maybe more.

If you want to make the case that cryptocurrencies deserve to be judged by something other than the absolute clusterfuck they have been so far, you have to make some sort of argument, preferably one with significant data. Otherwise, I think we're in the territory of "what can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence".
Let us all take solace in the fact that atleast China is doing this within their own borders.

it would be entirely different, and COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE to accept if they somehow did things we dont approve of, across someone elses borders. Thankfully though, because they do these heinous acts within their own borders, we can blissfully ignore it, and refrain from demanding Xi steps down, and enacting sanction package after sanction package.

And let us all once again remind ourselves that we shouldnt think closer on why it is that some so-called dictators and very serious crimes are to be largely ignored, while others demands reactions no matter the cost to ourselves, so long as we rightously let them know we are upset(while still paying them loads of money for natural resources, of course)

Yes and they are overreaching in response to a perceived miss many years ago when FB bought Instagram. The VR market is so young and small that it doesn't need regulatory intervention. Let's allow it play out a little bit before we get regulators involved who think things like: this app is something which "proves the value of virtual reality to users".

And yeah, they were, and they were being bought and sold, and Yahoo too. There was lots of m&a action in the space. Virtually everyone involved went under despite having a dominant position for a hot minute.
