Meaningful to who?

It's unlikely to be a good assumption - that what people say in person is what they really think and what they say from behind a fake name isn't. There are a number of things people truly believe and don't say in person because of the expected negative reaction. I use my real name online and I'm careful of what I say. You seem to have created a fake name an hour ago to say something that you probably believe, but don't want to risk offending someone - it's a rational thing to do.
That was a 1-line bugfix though.
> How refreshing to have an administration that actually feels shamed when caught lying and then takes said lies down. What a crazy concept.

I doubt it's actually "shame" like the headline-writer wrote. It's more likely due to a realization that it was unwise to remind voters, even indirectly, of a message they'd rather they forget.

Politicians lie and twist the truth, Biden's no exception (I recall a big speech after the Afghanistan that cherry-picked things to spin it into a success, rather than an embarrassing fiasco). The only difference with Trump is he was a compulsive liar, which made it more obvious. Other politicians tend to deploy their lies for better tactical and strategic effect.
I did embedded and now I do backend. I wouldn't say one is harder than other. Things are very different.

a few generations ago, there was a moral panic that the kids weren’t all right because rock and roll music was corrupting. It was loud, vulgar, etc and therefore wrong.

My point was to emphasize how across generations, everyone seems to think that the youth have bad norms and it’s somehow wrong, and then they grow up and the world keeps spinning, and the cycle repeats.

It’s awfully vain to think that the norms of your generation in your nation at your point in time are magically the ”better” ones.

The parent comment reference a novel idea that phone calls could have a subject line. It’s novel, it’s clever, it would solve many problems beyond just “people are scared to be human”. The world moves on, and we can improve it or we can launch ad hominem attacks on the next generation.
The same argument could be made of guns, and like with guns, I think it would have little to no effect.
I think we agree, but terminology wise its not a killer app problem. Its an install base problem. (which is a chicken and egg problem) If the install base was there, big studios would invest the time.
my guess is this will absolutely happen over time.

It depends on how people use the tools. For example the thank you note one -- if someone just prints off the output of this and sends it, yeah, that's bad.

But if someone uses this to do 90% of the work and then just edits it to make it personal and sound like themselves, then it's just a great time saving tool.

I mean, in this exact example, 70 years ago you'd have to hand address each thank you card by hand from scratch. 10 years ago you could use a spreadsheet just like this to automatically print off mailing labels from your address list. It didn't make things worse, just different.

This is just the next step in automation.
No, but companies are not shipping their ASML machines to china. US firms are already aware of this and avoid sending the secret sauce to China, they use china for final assembly, production of lower value components, etc.

China's vaccine doesn't work. The zero-COVID policy works to control the spread of SARS-COV-2 and its variants. The policy does not work to control the spread of human misery, unemployment, and general disruption of lives. But the people in government have no ethical framework, and no political consequences requiring they attend to the actual needs of the people governed.

At this point, it is about the appearance of taking action so that the policy decisions of Xi Jinping's government seem correct, not about doing what's effective for the overall health of the system which includes all of the governed in all the variety of their activities and pursuits.

There wouldn't have been conflict with the Protestants if what you say were true, which of course its not.

Pope Pius VIII: “Against these experienced sophists the people must be taught that the profession of the Catholic faith is uniquely true, as the apostle proclaims: one Lord, one faith, one baptism. Jerome used to say it this way: he who eats the Lamb outside this house will perish as did those during the flood who were not with Noah in the ark. Indeed, no other name than the name of Jesus is given to men, by which they may be saved. He who believes shall be saved; he who does not believe shall be condemned.” (Traditi humilitati #4, May 24, 1829)

This feels like bait and I'm surprised it is at the top. Here's why it feels like bait:

- Who is ranting about the free market. Republicans? Really just a select few and only in specific contexts. But they haven't ever voted in that interest so I'm not sure this is anything new.

- It feels like it is implying China has the moral upper hand. The same country who takes US invented products and sells them 10x cheaper under a different brand, violating international intellectual property laws. Buy Spot for $75k or Weilan's Alpha Dog or Unitree's Go for $2.5k?

- China complains about US taking their technology and talent while taking US technology and talent. Is this not hypocritical, double-standard protectionism, or even economic warfare?

- The comment implies that one side is morally right and the other isn't. Instead it is quite possible that the two have been engaged in soft economic warfare for decades and that neither is morally "right" (who has the high ground is arguable, but they definitely both are in the mud).

- This comment is boiling the situation down and decades of (complex) context into a singular point of time and singular action. It discourages looking at the events that led to this event and why the choices involved were made. This is bad faith.

So I want to encourage discussion on the topic, but I don't understand how this comment is anything but bait. It is reactionary and promoting reactionary comments. I suggest others don't take the bait.

If I'm wrong in my analysis I'm open to it. But I needed to explain why I don't think this comment is engaging in good faith nor promoting a healthy and fruitful discussion.

> why would someone write a forum (or any web app) in such a low-level language? [...] I could understand going as far as Go

Oh so many reasons:

Lemmy is a socialist project. Rust is a project that has it roots in FLOSS movement and Mozilla foundation. Go, otoh, is Google's thingy; a tech/advertising multi-national.

Technically Go is in some ways less low level than Rust. See the null guards everywhere in Go, and the idiomatic abstractions that Rust provides for this in the stdlib. Rust has sum types that allow for really high-level abstractions, was designed with generics in mind.

I personally find it more intellectually rewarding to program in Rust, over Go or say Python. The stack overflow favorite list shows more people like Rust as a language.

You call it "more trouble than it's worth", but that's up to the Lemmy devs to decide. As a FLOSS project, expecting they put in the effort of love there...

Sure Go was a viable alternative; but would the devs enjoy writing it in Go? Also then they would be skilled in Go, maybe that's not what they want.
It tends to have a lot of abuse where people try to run crypto miners on free github action accounts. Azure has been more stable the past few years and .NET wouldn't have any issues with stability at scale. Likely just a hard problem to solve at the scale they run at.

Yea, I moved from embedded to mobile (iOS) development pretty quickly. Similar problems/constraints but the tooling was an order of magnitude better. No more cobbling together non-working cross-compilers from some vendor's crappy BSP and praying they produced binaries that worked.
>It is true that generative ai technology is often trained on human artists' work. But how is that different from human artists taking inspiration/learning and adapting the style of other human artists?

It's different in the same way that making a copy of a book by hand, where it might take weeks or months to make a single copy, is different than making a copy with a printing press in a few minutes. It was the technological development of the latter process which lead to the concept of copyright being created in the first place.

There is a fundamental difference between a human being taking years to acquire artistic skill, then using that artistic skill to create individual works inspired by other artists, vs. using a generative AI system to "learn" a particular artist's style in a minutes or hours, then create infinite iterations of that style nearly instantly.

There's a tendency for people in tech to search out broad, overarching, universal principles that can be applied to all behavior. But sometimes, simply being able to do something tens of thousands of times faster or tens of thousands of times more cheaply is enough of a difference to require new rules, new moral frameworks, new modes of thinking.

"The computer is just doing what a human could do" simply isn't a compelling enough argument, any more than "the printing press is just doing what a scribe could do" would be.

Yeah, I do think it would be nice if you could sideload or use other stores on consoles, but I also think that it would cause consoles to get a lot more expensive, and also make the barrier to entry to publishing a game on consoles higher.

Sony and Microsoft sell their consoles at a loss for a large part of the consoles' lifetime. (There was even news recently that Microsoft is still losing money on the latest gen xboxes.) They do this because they can recoup that loss via the cut they get from games. Once that becomes not as certain, the calculus will change, and likely more towards breaking even on the hardware from the start. Is Apple selling their hardware at a loss?

And again, Sony and Microsoft just straight up provide more support to console devs than Apple does to app devs. A lot of those additional services are related to either publishing itself, or to online services for players. How much does it cost to get a human being on the line from Apple, that can actually do something to help solve your problem?
Um, why are we recycling plastic? We already know that burning plastic for energy is the superior option environmentally.

>The odds of cracking open an egg with a double yolk are about 1 in 1,000, and often come from younger hens. If you crack an egg every day, you’re only likely to get a double yolk once every three years.

Not accurate if you buy "jumbo" eggs. I eat maybe 4-5 eggs/week and get double yolks every few months.
I know they've removed it since the time of the comments I will refer, but I still feel like I would not choose Lemmy to host a forum due to the conduct of the maintainers on the threads regarding the hard-coded slur_filter. See https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/622. When the conversation with the project maintainers goes like:

> Hey I don't think a hardcoded slur filter is a good idea due to good reasons a, b, and c that don't relate to actually being a troll or calling people slurs in a hostile way

> Screw you racist, we're never going to remove it

I feel like their priority is no longer to provide a flexible tool other people can use as a communication platform in the way that best suits their community, but instead to impose a narrow-minded agenda on everybody. After that, even if they change their mind later, who's to say they won't change it again at some point?
If anything it's a lack of a usability feature. Sounds like both would be right.

There's also the opposite problem: older devs will use outdated features and have best practices in place that are now considered antipatterns. This exacerbates the existing difficulties to modernize legacy code bases and creates incentives to not do so. New devs are forced to learn C++ from 20 years ago which is much worse than modern C++.

> I have to go through an additional level of indirection before I truly understand how Month is implemented

I'd just hover over it in my IDE and it'd tell me what it is. Regardless, "Month" tells me it's a "month" whereas "int" tells me "lol get fucked I ain't telling you shit"

The "do" example there is much more readable than the "don't" example. Especially in any further usages of it, as it's one less thing I need to keep track of. That is, I don't need to second guess if the variable was passed to the wrong thing since the compiler is validating that for me. I don't need to track that during my "reading"

> True but as a developer who has to read and fix code, I do have to worry about the implementation details because the bugs could be in implementation details

Then why are you arguing against it? A "Month" type cleanly restricts the implementation details to a specific controllable set, which an "int" does not and is a free for all. You're in for a nightmare trying to fix people doing math with dates if you use "ints", whereas you can pretty easily fix all of the users of a "Month" or "Date" type by just removing the math operators (or "fixing" them to work appropriately) and letting the compiler spot all the mistakes.

Ok yes, this makes perfect sense. I've observed the same thing in academia. For the professors I've seen, even when they're not bidding and lobbying for grant money, they're often doing research that is not necessarily what they really want to do or that they could make the greatest scientific impact doing. Instead, they often contort their research to make it at least appear that they are advancing the scientific agenda of their funder.
Monoclonal antibodies and Dexamethasone are effective treatments for COVID19 (depending on a lot of details of course. BA.5 and other variants are showing resistance to many Monoclonal Antibodies)

Dexamethasone studies, even in April 2020, showed a 50% reduction in death rates. This is why the death rate in the USA was so much lower than Italy, because doctors studied the crap out of COVID19 and we begun to find effective treatments.

Instead of spreading information about treatments, a large group decided it was best to spread misinformation about horse dewormers.

------------

In either case, I think I can safely say that the hoopla about IVM and all that was bullshit. It never worked, but people wanted to believe for... some reason? It got to the point where people were rejecting legitimate treatments (ie: Dexamethasone + Monoclonal Antibodies) and asking doctors for IVM. I know, my sister is a doctor and had to deal with this bullshit.
Funnily enough, total code size remaining constant, it is preferable to have more smaller crates than a few big ones. This is because the compilation unit in the Rust compiler is the crate, so having more independent crates allows for parallelization during compilation. You can argue that rustc should have either tools to help you split your large crates and/or automatically detect when a single crate has non-overlapping elements that could be compiled concurrently (but the former is not something anyone is working on to my knowledge and the later has the risk of small refactors significantly affecting compile times in an opaque way).

It's not that crazy: Scenario: the product you make needs plastic packaging. You want to do as best you can with the constraint that you will keep shipping product. So you sponsor a climate conference to get ideas on what you can improve.

The option of "don't ship product" is not an option. Given that, what can you do instead?
