True. This does feel like it's caught somewhere between the future (electric cars) and a solution looking for a problem (self-driving cars).

Until an VR/AR/MR solution builds on productivity as a tool I think its market adoption will remain niche. I fear inevitably it will incorporate user addiction and behavior modification to promote data extraction. It’s at that point any usefulness it had as a tool evaporates.
Is your implication here that he's a hypocrite, or that he knows what he's talking about from experience?
Is that revenue or profit though? Withdrawing a lot of money doesn't mean anything if it is being spent on product and other costs.
Not with my friends. It’s also a protocol which can be used on pretty much all devices with your pick of clients so was a bad example in the list.
10 years ago, phones, tablets were the big thing. But smart management realized that no one was making money without a full vertical stack. The choices were iOS or Android. Besides Apple and Samsung no one was making money from phone and tablet. On the other hand - high performance computing and data center was a growing market. So smart money put the bet on high performance chips where you could have >50% margins. That's why AMD cancelled all their low power tablet chips (both X86 and ARM) and focused on Zen and the datacenter.

I can't find any indication from the author, but:

(Post-)Kantian epistemology/metaphysics is about trying to see what we can know of the structure and behavior of the world prior to (without) making empirical reference to it. Intuitively, the distinction between static analysis and dynamic analysis seems to parallel the relationship between rationalist/idealist/a priori epistemology and empiricist/materialist epistemology.

Hegelian philosophy has also been taken up by some mathematicians and 'formalized' in terms of type theory and category theory. Lawvere did some work on 'categorifications' of Marx and Hegel, and I guess some HoTT people have also recently taken an interest in Hegel. You can find a little bit of background and references to other sources here: https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/Hegel%27s+%22Logic%22+as+Modal...
To get anywhere near the the down force required to avoid spinning the tires you need a vertical acceleration vector from something like the propulsion thrusters used in dragsters.
They are, they're just usually handled in a separate phase. In CT, judges apparently work them out after a jury recommends that punitive damages get handed out; in TX, the jury deliberates twice, once for compensatory and once for punitive damages.
this or briar would be my first choice in jumping ship
Im made an app. Some users are demanding it to be open source. What should I do?
I have a pretty large Java code base (40+ micro services) and the integration test suite takes hours, many hours, to run.

However they are usually testing components from end-to-end. This seems not very amenable to benefitting this approach, since "side effects" are an inherent part of nearly every integration test.
I neither think so nor said I do - it just happens to be the one we're discussing here, distinctly from the many others.
I have a desktop that had decent specs 10 years ago. I still use it today. I did add a graphics card, more ram, and more storage over the years. Guess what? It's still decent specs and able to play many new games. That's a long time compared to when I was growing up.

I also have a 14 year old laptop. That one's days are probably numbered. Maybe I'll get one in the next two years.
Frameworks come and go. What is trendy today will be deemed obsolete a few years later. By the time when the community no longer interested in said framework, it will feel like the rug got pulled leaving many projects stranded.
Guessing they have lots of submarine patents they have been keeping in abeyance until they spot somebody they can use them against.

That's a bit misleading. IndexedDB is a standard maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and is supported by all major browsers. Web SQL Database was a prior API developed by Apple. But Firefox refused to add support for it and argued against it becoming a standard because it would codify the quirks of SQLite. It was thus deprecated in favor of IndexedDB.
Brains weren't built for math either, just for surviving. And the "trying to do math in your head" is true if you use naive question answering, but if you ask "step by step" or "chain of thought", or "supporting questions", any of them will allow for flexible time steps. There are some solutions called "Language Model Cascades" that compose language models calls to simulate arbitrary complex reasoning chains including recursion. There is no reason to think language models are unfit for math, they are fit for generating possible solutions that need to be verified somehow.

I don't think Google would prevent Apple from publishing an app on the play store. There are already many messengers on it.
Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) might be the solution looking for this particular problem. Figures 2 & 3:

That's an interesting point about the disincentive. I fear, though, that rules around this wouldn't be feasible to administer; it could open a whole new world of hiding assets, which is already pretty easy to do.
Feel free to support that claim in some way.

Most of Jones' opinions seem to revolve around the idea that cabals of conspirators are trying to trick people into accepting exploitation or tyranny. I don't keep up with all his different ideas, though.
I have SMS, right, you kind of have to have a phone number, but to me it's legacy support, I pay for the mobile data. I'll do SMS as a sort of fallback.

The people you want to send you SMS like companies that need your phone number can't do SMS, and the ones you'd rather message you elsewhere sometimes insist on SMS. It's annoying.
> He’ll declare bankruptcy

Sure, but debts from frauds and willful and malicious harms, includong associated punitive damages, are not dischargeable in bankruptcy.
I think it's very clear this post is about cars.
John Vervaeke! He's a cognitive scientist with a uh, 50-part lecture series "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis" on youtube, some of this was covered in episode 13 "Buddhism and Parasitic Processing" (specifically the parasitic processing part)
Same as always. I'm pretty sure Ford did something similar several years ago. They got money for jobs, then closed the plant like a year later or something.
In theory it should be possible to write back to static storage, but you’d have to deal with authentication and file management, cacheing writes, consistency/atomicity etc. It’d be a lot of work.
I’m trying to find a source but I’m pretty sure this wasn’t an off-hand nurse claim, he talked about it for years.
By no means am I arguing the notion that their track record of supporting products (especially hardware) is good, especially when compared to other participants in the space. It is poor, I think most of us have heard that at least once by now.

At the same time, nobody has to venerate anything in these threads either. Positive and negative discussion should be encouraged. But merely stating that "it's gonna be cancelled, place your bets" (as many of the comments at the bottom of this thread do) does not constitute meaningful or intellectually-stimulating conversation, and we as a community should strive to do better than that.
Windows needs way more testing to launch on. Many more relevant OS versions. Widely divergent hardware vs a handful of supported models that all have pretty nice specs.
That's literally how tort damages work. The inverse of your logic would imply that defamation wouldn't be actionable at all; reputation damage, after all, concerns entirely what unrelated third parties do with your misstatements.
This was a very interesting article to me as I am currently looking at high schools for my child. Growing up I went to the high school of the school district of my area, and was not aware there were such differences and opinions. Now living in a different state, a child going to private school and having to apply for different high schools I was unaware of how the admissions process can affect class scores. It does seem to make sense reading other comments with additional references that parent leadership and child determination to do well in school would help overall grades vs the lottery system where parents want children to go to a good school but the kids have no interest.
> The courts are part of the government

Right, but that is not how the law is applied. In a civil lawsuit, court or the government is not the plaintiff or the defendant, and therefore first amendment protections do not apply. There are first amendment protections when public officials are involved in the defamation suit. But beyond that, it is well established that first amendment does not protect this kind of speech.
Revenue is pretty much useless to determine how much money they have. If the revenue was $53,000,000 it is possible they spent $52,999,999.99 of the money on expenses to get that $53 million.
Uh, yeah, you didn't realise it was a scam when all the politicians trying to get that bill passed had investments in the companies getting the money?
Which is still usefull for querying a large database without having to download the entire thing.
>But wasn't cellular data priced similarly extortionately back then?

I guess it depends on your terms. I had--I think--a 2GB per month data plan (which was actually fairly reasonable for mobile at the time) and later went to "unlimited" but I was still paying something like 10 cents per text for a time. I didn't text a lot so I just paid a la carte until I changed plans.

Communications charges have changed a lot over time. I remember when long distance calls were something like $1/minute.
Yes, even the transistor was a logical consequence of existing work. The real breakthrough was the junction diode.
If it's his own employee, then it does come within the plaintiffs' allegations (since they alleged conduct by associates and employees of Jones as well as Jones himself), but it also is different from an allegation of harassment by people not connected with Jones or his company, who harassed the plaintiffs solely on the basis of things they heard Jones say. AFAIK the plaintiffs made no allegations about the latter at all, nor was the latter considered at all by the court in awarding damages.
thanks for thoughtful reply, definitely a lot to think about and consider

> Most people are reactive to “bad” politics, just like bad sales and bad management. When it is handled well, people don’t notice it or realize it.

yes, definitely, i guess (at least when i use that word) most people probably mean "bad politics" when they say "politics" and that was what i mean... good to clarify that

> I don’t think this is relegated to certain industries or certain team sizes. It’s a question of roles and responsibilities

good point!

> We’ve have great social experiments in rotating leadership and in practice, people bring whatever lens they view the world to the leadership table, which is great until it isn’t.

yes, that can be an issue for sure. i guess what i was thinking was through the chance of being lead by someone who was previously under them and vice-versa there is more of a chance for managers to re-evaluate that lens and reduce those "bad" politics...
It matches TFA, but I think 'Framework' in that capitalisation (incorrectly) implies it's about Framework (https://frame.work) the company.

I think quotes - 'framework' - would be better, both here and in the OP; we can fix one of those.
Yeah, but isn't their one year forecast much lower? Not to mention they have a bigger lercentage of business in areas other than PC CPUs, right?
Is there a reason LibreSSL seems less bumpy than a multicorp sponsored OpenSSL? Is it just more development takes place in OpenSSL vs LibreSSL?
I think it might be super interesting to use width to represent depth of the pixel.
It's even worse than you describe. The store in question has voted to join the union but negotiations on the union contract have yet to begin. So there's not even a "last cycle" here.
That is creepy as hell, sounds like you had an encounter with Agent Smith from The Matrix, except for reals.
> just because we think we have ways, doesn't mean that they're good ways

Evolution does work. Assuming people are free to try everything out, usually the strategies that become the norm are the strategies that work better than the other ones. If you know better then the market, you could theoretically go in, make your own company execute your own strategy and start dominating the market, this has been done in history multiple times.

> it may be that our ways are the equivalent of rolling dice

Would you try this out if your own money or health was on the line?

> I mean hilariously there are all like endemic complaints about interview processes.

I have a lot of complaints against democracy, however that does not mean I desire fascism, it means I want a better democracy.

> Why is it that all of a sudden you turn against the criticism and act like our decision making is sacrosanct?

Assuming we want the people who can best perform, we should be looking at ways how to better identify the best performers instead of actively sabotaging the process by adding arbitrary discrimination into it that is proven to work against the goal.

> It's often "trust" and "reputation" and other sticky things like that that make the decision. I seem to hear all sorts of stories of people hiring leaders because "I had a good feeling about him"

Would you give keys to your house to someone you don't trust? Would you give the keys to your car to someone who has a reputation of crashing cars?

Democracy is based on trust as well, you don't know if your favourite politician is actually going to do what they say they are going to do or if it's actually a good idea, yet you are likely going to go with your feelings and cast your vote.

How do you think a CEO would fare if that CEO would not have the respect of their subordinates?

> Among relatively equal candidates I think this is true.

For highly skilled roles, I doubt that this happens often in real life, usually you will have candidates with different qualities and you have to figure out which are the ones you believe to be more valuable.

> You could probably roll the dice among this group, otherwise, maybe you're not that great at training senior managers?

I would probably try to see who would do the job for less, but sure, if that's the case you could also choose at random, however the higher the skill requirement, the less likely you will get into this situation.
Ya, something like zod needs to be part of the language.

How frequently does that happen?
It may not be a step function improvement but the difference is still night and day: Dreading one more line of C++ versus looking forward to many fun lines of D.

I mean... Modules versus header files, 13 times faster compilation, introspection, unittest, etc. etc. etc. Okay, it's more like death by a thousand cuts but once you produce with D, you can't even touch C++ anymore. I am in that state...
"social reasons" is too broad to say conclusively. If i was desperate to get an "in" with a specific circle, then perhaps? I'm pretty utilitarian, so the probability is low: my current peer circle probably uses cars as a social signifier, and unbothered in that area as well.
Am I the only one who thinks this is really hard to read?
How in the world does DocuSign have 7k employees? I’m genuinely baffled. 700 employee would seem like a stretch.

My old boss started his company at 52, he was running it for a decade when I joined. My dad just started a company (not software) at 75.

I started a company when I was 19, and had no clue what I was doing. There is never a wrong age to start, but as you get older you are more allergic to losing money :)
I'm the author of the original 'refork' feature introduced to Puma a couple years ago [1], that served as an inspiration for this project.

As I understand it, Pitchfork is an implementation of a reforking feature on top of Unicorn, a single-threaded multi-process Rack HTTP server.

The general idea of 'reforking' is that in addition to pre-forking worker processes at initialization time, you re-fork them on an ongoing basis, in order to optimize copy-on-write efficiency across processes, especially for memory allocations that might happen after initialization. The Pitchfork author mentions sharing YJIT machine code as a particularly important use-case [2], one that has become relevant in recent Ruby releases.

I never saw much interest in the concept when I originally introduced the reforking feature to Puma, and it remained a kind of interesting experiment that never saw much production uptake. I'm thrilled that Shopify is iterating on the concept through this project and I hope the technique will continue to be refined and developed, and see broader adoption as a result.

Pretty soon you won't be able to log in to any major website with javascript disabled.
MS gonna MS.
1. Every sufficiently complex framework-free application contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of a framework.

2. If you have a talented team, that half of a framework can be much better than using a one-size-fits-all framework that is popular because it used to be lean and mean with a small surface area, but has grown over time to do everything for everyone, becoming a complex monster.

3. If you have a small team that hires slowly, it's relatively straightforward to bring new devs up to speed on "the way we do things." if you are hiring rapidly and/or have a large team, the more bespoke things you have, the harder it is to maintain them.

4. Over time, everything degrades. In the long run, many framework-free applications either get walled off as "legacy" apps with new work done in separate services, or replaced outright. If it makes you money before that happens, you win. It is not necessary to try to design architecture that will last for centuries.

5. My last and--to me the most significant--observation is this: You want to pay the majority of your attention to the code that has the greatest impact on your desired outcomes.

Using libraries and frameworks is like a business outsourcing things that aren't its core competency and also aren't competitive differentiators. Most software shops do not win by having their own framework or by not having a framework, they win by using something bog-standard and saving their attention for the part of their code that "moves the needle."

But that's only "most," and your business may be one of the few.
'Fuel' classes of drag racing use nitromethane as a fuel which produces staggering power: 0 to 100 MPH in .8 seconds (first 60 feet, 6 G-forces at the starting line
0 to 200 MPH in 2.2 seconds (first 350 feet)
330mph plus 1000 foot finish line speeds and then 6 negative G-forces upon deployment of twin parachutes chutes at 300 MPH.

Should be included in the title then.
Is it because types in JavaScript are essentially ideological convention? Is that the hegel joke?
I would take a different tack on this: the speech was legally unhindered, that is, free.

The consequences of the speech are, however, borne by the speaker.

I'm not sure this covers all cases of consequential burdening, but it does seem to cover many of them. A future prohibition on speech, gag order, banning from online or broadcast services, etc., might be a harder case to make, though these could still be seen as sanctions on behaviour rather than content.

I'm not defending Jones at all here, his penalties are exceedingly well deserved and have been far too delayed.
Perhaps you could submit updates to the database as diffs and commit them via normal git channels
There's a web browser version of datasette called datasette-lite which runs on Python ported to WASM with Pyodide which can load SQLite databases.

I grafted the enhanced lazyFile implementation from emscripten and then from this implementation to datasette-lite relatively recently as a curious test. Threw in a 18GB CSV from CA's unclaimed property records here

https://www.sco.ca.gov/upd_download_property_records.html

into a FTS5 Sqlite Database which came out to about 28GB after processing:

POC, non-merging Log/Draft PR for the hack:

https://github.com/simonw/datasette-lite/pull/49

You can run queries through to datasette-lite if you URL hack into it and just get to the query dialog, browsing is kind of a dud at the moment since datasette runs a count(*) which downloads everything.

Example: https://datasette-lite-lab.mindflakes.com/index.html?url=htt...

Still, not bad for a $0.42/mo hostable cached CDN'd read-only database. It's on Cloudflare R2, so there's no BW costs.
Belief in meritocracy continues to amuse.
Total opposition to copyright is coherent, but I'm not sure that's being adhered to in the discussion here - particularly from the OP.

Being totally opposed to copyright and also choosing to consume content that was only made in the expectation of copyright-enabled paid business models is where it breaks down, in my mind. There's a vast world of freely available content out there, as there would be in a no-copyright world, but if that's not enough for you, or you find benefits from consuming the content produced by the commercial industry enabled by copyright law, how consistent is your belief that copyright should be abolished? Seems like you just want to freely enjoy the benefits without upholding your side of the bargain in that case. I have not seen a case that the budgets to produce those things would be there in a "everything is free for everyone" world.
Interesting, I didn't know that! I would call that a "sidewalk".

To me "pavement" would be anything that's paved. I took it to mean streets because of the context of gig workers.
