The Gen 8/9 had a bad bios update sent out and set to install in the background.

It bricked the laptops it was installed on. I know this because I had to handle the warranty stuff for my coworker who was fortunately covered under their warranty.

Required a new motherboard and half a week of downtime, but at the same time Lenovo at least fixed the problem.

It's a simple statement of fact, so it's pretty safe in most cases. Employment dates and "would we rehire" (simple yes/no, not getting into any reasons why) have always been the only questions we answer.
I'm pretty confused about this... I don't think any household devices are willing to gracefully power down when the wind stops for a minute. Like, what's a microwave going to do when voltage drops?

I can't imagine this working for anything except maybe charging laptops, or other battery devices.

Everything here requires BankID and that seems a hell of a lot safer and much more convenient than what I hear is used in many other countries (although I don't think BankID should be privately owned like it is now).

Another upside that wasn't mentioned in the post is that all this legally required information really simplifies a lot of bureaucracy.
It could be done without the info being public I guess, but the law requiring that you register your place of residence makes voting and paying taxes really easy. The state already knows what municipality you live in, so you don't need to register to vote yourself and you don't have to figure out what taxes you need to pay (unless you're self-employed).

Interesting, maybe I'll try this in my smaller shower. My challenge is that (1) we have a low-flow showerhead, so there's not much coming out even when it's on, and (2) our showers are far from the water heater, so it's the least-hot receptacle in the house. We set our water heater temperature pretty low, and by the time it gets to the shower it's less hot and not so steamy. I wish there were a unit we could attach right at the nozzle that would give it a little boost!

> Semantics is a separate matter.

I agree; and symbol is a semantic entity, not a syntactic one.

S-expressions do not have symbols, they have tokens which become symbols when read into the machine.

Tokens are clumps of characters. i.e. strings.

> There are no symbols or references in Jevko.

> @gnulinux and @User23 have it right.

Those two are insisting that texts are symbols in Jevko, so the above two statements contradict each other.

E.g.

gnulinux> You're not understanding. These are not strings. These are symbols.

User23> Jevko language [...] has no strings. For example, a Common Lisp hosted Jevko parser implementation might choose to represent Jevko text objects as symbols.

> What's happening here is parsing. `jevkoToHtml` is a kind of parser-transpiler which operates on a syntax tree, rather than a sequence of characters or tokens.

That is obviously false. It's operating on a nested list of strings, whereby it's making a semantic decision whether a string in a certain position of a nested item in the structure ends in the = character.

In other words the syntax is character-level. The strings themselves have syntax, which is made of characters. That's in the Jevko specification. Characters are the atoms in Jevko.

The = character that the code is looking for is a %x3D element.

It's right here: https://github.com/jevko/specifications/blob/master/draft-st...

The = character is %x3D. An %x3D is Character. A Character is one of the kinds of Symbol (the other being Digraph). A Symbol is a constituent of Text. Text generates a Prefix or Suffix. A Suffix alone can be a Jevko due to this rule:

Jevko ::= *Subjevko Suffix

Thus, formally Jevko does have Symbols: a Symbol is a Character or Digraph.

A Text is a sequence of Symbols, which are Characters or Digraphs. It is in no way an atom. A sequence of characters or diagraphs is a string.
Does zig have computed goto? That's important for emulators and virtual machines and C/C++ don't have it. Projects will often go out of their way to have a MinGW/gcc built module for core loops with that (gcc has it as an extension) even if the main project is built with MSVC.
VBA is one of the best things Microsoft ever produced from an actual business perspective. The killer problem is that people run any old untrusted shit from anywhere.
Header-only libraries are a common thing in C++. They allow pretty easy consumption, because the consumer only needs to specify the include path. That's fairly easy with any build system (and C++ has a lot of them).

Any binary library would also require building the library itself using the same toolchain and then linking to it - which requires a lot more configuration on the consuming side. It might be easy if both projects use the same build system (e.g. cmake), but that's far from guaranteed in C++.

Some teachers I knew during COVID reported that in some cases nearly half the kids stopped attending online class and just never returned. Parents wouldn't respond to calls / efforts to get them back into class. Some school districts were faced with wondering what to do? Fail huge % of the students?

They chose not to fail them.

The only place I've used it so far is for Ziti stuff. I did add a (really tiny) example to the project itself to show how to structure it: https://github.com/openziti/runzmd/tree/main/example

That was one reason I left the ziti actions in the project, as I thought they'd be useful as real life examples for someone writing their own actions.
It doesn't mean the sky is falling, but may indicate a shift in attitude within Google as their costs grow faster than their revenues.

Given that Google dominates email, search, browsers, phones, creator video, and a laundry list more things... it's definitely indicative of a story.

>trail just seems to stop cold.

There's your evidence.
Realistically there isn’t much more they can do to squeeze out revenue from being the “premium” brand, so they have to find new ways to expand to keep growing. They have an advantage in that their main/only competitor is always going to be more dependent on ads than they are.

It's a bit of hyperbole. You have to admit, their engineering is far, far better than they marketing. IMO they should be the #1 company in the world. Chromebooks could have been the new general purpose computer if only they were a tiny bit less locked down... GCP could be better than AWS with a little love. There's already network effects with Gmail, Docs, Google for business and all that... They should have pushed Stadia just a bit more.

It's just slightly disappointing because Google stuff works better than any other computing items I've ever used. Everything connects to the cloud and just works in a way MS' and Apple's cloud offerings don't. And they should be competing with Apple and MS but instead they're mostly selling ads...

Chrome on Windows has Widevine support but not the level required for providers to serve 4k content to it. As mentioned in another comment it's also possible the 4k content is only served via HEVC, so lack of Widevine support in HEVC would mean there is no compatible 4k steam available.

Widevine, and DRM more generally, has everything to do with why most providers don't stream above 1080p(even if) on Windows. Netflix's Windows app (ie not Chrome and possibly limited to only Netflix Originals..) being a notable exception:

Amazon Prime Video: Nope

HBO Max: Nope

Paramount+: Nope

Disney+: Nope

Hulu: Nope (Maybe originals in the app?)

Apple TV: God nope; ugly as sin I don't even think they are hitting 1080p but maybe I'm just spoiled now

There may also be aggressively limited bitrates at 720/1080p for H.264 streams. Would need to dig into it but that could make those resolutions look like garbage compared to how they used to look(ie a Vudu 1080p stream circa 2011).

Basically it's a shitshow and a damn shame for personal computing in 2022.
I'm not sure I understand. It's quite easy to take money out of your 401k without penalty for a first time home buyer. How could it be easier than just requesting the money?
Another thing worth pointing out is that pretty much every editor that ha a TypeScript plugin uses TypeScript's language server to power it. The language server and the compiler are contained within the same binary (or at least they were) and use the same typechecking logic. So if you see an error in your IDE, you can be pretty confident that it'll be there when you build your code, and vice versa.
Yep. Since I'm not a lawyer it probably wasn't necessary to include the "not legal advice" bit, but I'm just trying to be clear.
Most of these systems probably don't even care about the real time... so it'd just be more effective to map them back to a different index and handle it with an offset externally.

At a glance it looks like 1971 and 1993 might be good alternatives for 2038. The command line cal program agrees with where dates start each month for all three years.
Yeah, I’m really not sure how it managed that. I am slightly suspicious, because while I was working on the zig version I spent more time running into compiler bugs[1] than writing my code, and so there’s a chance that it’s running so fast by throwing away random chunks of important behaviour… but it still passes all of the test suite, so as far as I can tell this specific build is working correctly.

[1] half the time I’d make the compiler crash; the other half it would generate a binary which crashes at runtime, with weird heisenbug behaviour like “adding a print statement to log how far down a function I am causes the code to stop crashing at all” — like right now there is a load-bearing print statement which shows the address of the SDL Window object, because otherwise the compiler seems to optimise the Window out of existence and then a few lines later it segfaults on the null pointer…

>> That wouldn't be of use in any existing Java project though. The only reason you'd ever want to do that is because browsers offer nothing else, even though they could and at that point why not compile to JS, at least that way your GC isn't being interpreted too. If you're not constrained by the WHATWG's decisions though it doesn't offer anything.

It is very use case and "what is the future of your Java application" dependent. Some organizations are looking into migrating off of Java due to a variety of reasons. These kind of "Java conversion" tools help to keep legacy Java applications running until the legacy Java applications can be replaced.
"Rolled" :)
we built on the principles of zero-knowledge cloud which means decentralizing identity + crypto on the client side. Keeping passwordless in context, we wanted to eliminate passwords completely which means not even a master password. we rolled out our own crypto for mobile, browser and desktop app.
I agree. This was honestly news to me - who very often uses Python for maths. However, I would never write the code as he did (instead I would rely on numpy/scipy). So I would also be intersted in a numpy version of the same test.
IIUC, it's because it's easier to rigorously prove the VM prevents classes of bugs (i.e. memory safety issues) and then reuse that VM in many places than it is to rigorously prove that many separate embedded systems not relying on the VM have independently avoided those bugs.
Facebook is strategically no different than myspace a decade or two ago. When the cool kids go somewhere else, it becomes clear that the platform itself was nothing special.

Edit: I was downvoted, but I stand by what I wrote. Google has Android and (for now) superior search results. Netflix has content (including their own, not just other people's). Apple has their devices, which are killing it right now. These companies will be okay. It is Facebook that might not exist in 5 years. What do they actually have other than fickle network effects that can be here today and gone tomorrow? VR? That won't save them.
Exactly, I'd probably contribute small amounts to multiple issues/projects in hopes that others also contribute enough to motivate someone to apply the fix.

Often I want to fix the issue myself, but something prevents me from doing so. I might not be familiar enough with the programming language, or I might not have enough time right now

I guess you could "slot loom into co-routines", but the niceness of loom is that you don't even have to use coroutines. It could just be regular "blocking" Kotlin functions which run on virtual threads.

If you already use Kotlin coroutines - fine to continue to use them. But I imagine for a new project you might want to opt to build on virtual threads instead of coroutines.
You're both right. It was $15/mo, then the price went up to $18 but they didn't raise the price for existing subscribers, but this time they're raising the price for existing customers as well, so for the oldest customers, it's a 50%, $15->$23 hike, and for newer customers, it's a 27%, $18->$23 hike.
As someone who once was part of an outsourced team maintaining a COBOL system, I can attest to the fact that people wrote shit then, and will continue to write shit.

I put my resignation papers 2 weeks later and moved on to JS, Python and systems design
Wait, GraalVM is implemented in Java?

Does that mean to run it you need another JVM to run it on top of? That sounds stupid... Maybe you need another VM just to run it on once, so it can translate itself to native code on the target?
> It's not destabilizing in any way

At the beginning of this year, the CFR's Foreign Policy magazine said it might be destabilizing. Russia invaded the Ukraine a few months later.

So you say the US putting these military systems around eastern Europe was not a destabilizing move, but I think the past months has shown otherwise.
Yeah, all these benchmarks are measured in headless mode - all the calculations of what should be on-screen are done, and pixels are written into a buffer ready to be displayed, but the Window is never opened and the buffer isn’t blitted.

I don't think that's an integrated feature of Webpack, though. It is a feature of TypeScript's own compiler (`tsc`), but that's about it. Nothing about Webpack supports typechecking (or TypeScript) natively.

This was real, my wife's mother bought us a cheap plastic red hoover for 127.00. I stayed on the phone for seven hours, hoover offered us one flight date in a weeks time, we got proper flights from London to New York on British Airways, and took our three year old up the empire state building, son is 30 now. It was January and snowing like crazy, we stayed with friends and shovelled snow from their drive in the morning. Just to add people in New York were really friendly, talked to us, and helped us get our push chair on and off the trains.

The link they provide is to reading results, but the article is citing math results. Where are those? The reading is showing 4th and 8th grade levels are at exactly the level they were in 1992, which incidentally, is when I was in 6th grade. Telling me kids today are exactly as stupid as me doesn't sound quite as alarming. I'm actually kind of surprised scores went up by 2019. Also, "biggest ever" is since 1969 since the assessment didn't exist before then.
If Rust wasn't able to elide bounds checks, that is most likely where the perf difference is from. Analyzing the output the assembly output from goldbolt or looking at the MIR can help.

Unsafety buys you a little more performance, but the baseline should the safe version, not the unsafe version. It is like having to explain on a case by case basis why you aren't using lead pipes for this application.

Always default to safety. The difference between safe and unsafe native code is usually single digit percentage points. Or weeks on a Moore scale.
> Income does not equal wealth.

100% agree. You can have a high income and choose to live beyond your means preventing you from accumulating wealth.

I thought about saying it that way, but a lot of biological violence between organisms is outside of morality. I wanted to draw a very specific connection between "civilized society" and "the deliberate application of violence".
I reject the claim that giving people exactly the kind of society they want (e.g. one which puts dangerous people into concentration camps) is merely "repeating the cycle". That is the rallying cry of those who do evil and then declare, "you can't punish me because that would be hypocritical!"

"Do unto others as they publicly declare they want done unto society" does not continue any cycles. You can't apply the rule a second time and say, "well you put people into camps therefore you go into a camp", because the rule doesn't say "do unto others as they did unto you", but rather looks at what they advocated for. I wouldn't advocate for putting random "dangerous people" into camps; I only advocate for doing this to those who publicly declare it is to be done. What's unique about this rule is that I will more than happily submit to your application of it to me: because what that means is you will put me into the kind of society for which I advocate. That's exactly what I want! Everyone applying this rule isn't an eye for an eye as you imply; but rather a utopia where everyone lives in exactly the society he wants to live in.

More realistic variants of this - can we curtail the free speech of those who campaign against free speech? I say yes. Can we declare to be thoughtcrime illiberal ideologies? Yes. A society which says, "anything is permitted, except explicit campaigns against this founding principle", is much more free in the long run than a society which permits itself to be co-opted by an opposite ideology.
