Many people here compare c++ jobs to, say, js jobs mentioning that the latter are easier and at the same time pay more. I wonder if all them really dont care what they do as long as the wage is large enough.

I tend to think that in many cases one would deal with something more interesting/involving while working on a cpp project than on a python web app.
As of Python 3, pip install into the system Python lib directory is strongly discouraged. ISTR that even using pip to update pip results in a warning.

That’s not to say that there’s not still some libs out there that haven’t updated docs to get with the times.
I really appreciate you sharing these. To my eye, there were quite a few where the 14 pro is noticeably better. Take the first one — the pro image is sharper imo, while the pixel photo suffers from very noticeable noise reduction or some other smoothing process.

That said, Im an iPhone user and I very likely have a bias. It would be cool to take a blind quiz to see which I actually prefer and if I do have a bias. I wonder if there’s a web service that easily lets you do this with imgur albums.
Whenever someone says "image a billion dollars" just remember that amounts to 1000-2000 small apartments at best.

A billion dollars for a thousand apartments is one million per apartment. Even in corrupt, dysfunctional California that's crazy high.

The cost should be a few hundred dollars per square foot to build, plus land cost. Anything over that is overhead California forced on itself.

They are new to Cree, who is a more mainstream manufacturer.

The growlights that power the vertical farms (which are, let's be honest, mostly weed farms) come from vendors (e.g. Fluence) that are more specialized, and therefore are fairly expensive. About $1500 per 4x4 foot grow area, last prices I saw.

I dunno if this will ever be economically feasible outside of high-value crops. A Spyder rig from Fluence draws about 630W. But yep, it is at least a step forward, and way better than the weird fluorescent/MH/HID options.

That seems a little silly to me and I think we're splitting hairs with what it means to do category/set theory. I don't know category or set theory, so I hope you will forgive me for using yet another allegory.

Let's say I make a type class for Groups (in the abstract algebra sense). The rationale behind this is that there's an algorithm for exponentiation which is O(log(n)) versus the naive O(n) algorithm. So if you make an instance that's a Group, you get to use this fast exponentiation.

Sure, to understand and use this type class you have to understand what a Group is. However, I think it's a bit of a stretch to tell someone "in order to use Group you must first learn abstract algebra" because they'll think you're telling them to take a university level course. In actuality, they don't have to know much at all (they don't even need to understand _why_ the exponentiation algorithm works) - they just need to know what is a lawful Group.

The first day of the intro to abstract algebra course I took introduced much more information than you'd need to use this made up type class, and I expect the same of the others.

Like this is my understanding of Functors/Applicatives/Monads. I kind of know their shape and how to use them. If you asked me about any of the underlying math I would shrug and maybe draw a pig (https://bartoszmilewski.com/2014/10/28/category-theory-for-p...).
As someone who only knows C++ to a poor level, you’re exactly the sort of person I wouldn’t want to hire for a C++ job, but I would consider hiring for a Rust job. The bar is way higher for C++ because it’s so easy for even experienced developers to introduce mistakes.
That's good.

We know what Facebook is and does. Pioneers need to put all the chips on the table and risk them all in order to get to make the next leap.

You can make the argument that nobody deserves such huge decision making power, but if somebody should then the person who shipped a service used by 2 billion people is for sure the first in line.

I am still rooting for expropriation of all billionaires but if it's not possible then the next best option is to let them spend and bet the company with the highest possible frequency. It's a much better outcome compared to transitioning into politics like Trump or Musk.

AFAIK all of the major browsers (and other JS runtimes) have implemented some performance-sensitive APIs in JS, specifically because it performs better than crossing the JS<->native boundary. Granted that’s usually specifically about JS API performance, but that’s a lot of where performance matters in a JS host environment.

Aside, perhaps amusing: A while ago, I used Tumblr as a modest blog of my tech adventures. Put a link to that on my LinkedIn page.

A year or two passed, and while applying for jobs, it occurred to me to check that link. Without telling me, Tumblr had given my URL away to someone who enjoyed posting naked pictures of herself. Lesson learned.

(In truth, given the quality of most tech resumes, I'd be quite happy to click on one and be shown that.)

Instead of being angry at judges in a lot of cases it would be better if the laws were designed better.
You could remove the need to explicitly specify the permissions somewhat by enforcing semver for permission addition.

If you own a package at version 1.X.X and you want to add a permission requirement you have to bump the version to 2.0.0. If you also allow people to opt in to a less strict "auto allow all the currently required permissions for these dependencies" mode, they would at least know for sure nothing can touch anything new unless they explicitly bump the major version.

If you're extra concerned about security you can explicitly specify them so it's really obvious when a major version bump adds new ones, but it removes some of the friction.
>If SpaceX had failed to do the human launch, the cost would have been on SpaceX.

This is not how govt launches work. The payload (which is sometimes worth more than the rocket) is self-insured, meaning SpaceX is not responsible for eating that cost if it's lost. They are paid for the service (i.e., the ride) but have little to no cost regarding the cargo on govt launches.
Actually not a bad idea.

Even if used mostly by promoters, spammers, trolls, bots, etc., who want to pay to direct message, it still seems like a win/win for everyone. They get their eyeballs on message, the receiver gets paid for their attention, Twitter likely will get some additional revenue.

I personally get spam DMs too, even though I intentionally keep my follower count low, so I can see how this would cut down on spam by a huge amount for bigger accounts.
Do you have access to information we don't?
Having a niche is a good way to get your first and probably second promotion. Be good at a thing, get promoted to senior person of thing, maybe manager of thing. At this point you don’t want to be a specialist anymore if your goal is promotion. You want to be a generalist and know how things generally should work and be a good communicator. It helps if you are likable. The switch is hard. It is hard to give up what you are good at and hard to get people to see you are good at other things.
No I haven't. Will totally do that in order to save time explaining to friends why they can't use Apple Maps for navigation to my house. I just assumed that submitting maps bugs is the same /dev/null form as normal bugs for Apple software, but it seems it's a separate process and they are actually responsive. Thanks!
Biden was saying "we'll make sure Nord Stream 2 never opens" while you were using that statement to insinuate that he was threatening both pipelines. Yes, both pipelines were damaged, but he was not threatening an attack with that statement and he was not threatening Nord Stream 1, either.

It's actually in the US's interest for the Nord Stream 1 to remain operational for at least a few more months so that Europe can fill its reserves. The extra money Russia/Gazprom pulls in from that is not going to make much of a difference to the war effort, while the extra gas will help ensure that Europe's resolve doesn't break this winter. Next winter hopefully they'll have further transitioned to green energy and LNG. So just looking it at that way, the US should not attack the pipeline at this time. Maybe next string, but not now!

I presented numerous possible motives for Russia to damage its own pipelines at this time, as well as a record of similar past behavior. I think I made a compelling case. I can see where you are coming from, but I disagree with your conclusions. If you don't agree with any of my points and won't budge on this at all then that's fine, but there's nothing more to debate here.

> While Meyer has not granted permission for James to create a derivative work from Twlight, she has not yet initiated any public litigation directed at the 50 Shades of Grey series. Still, because Meyer's copyright lasts for her lifetime plus 70 years, James and her heirs may face litigation down the road.

This is in fact an unknown, it could appear that Meyer would have at least a case against it if she wanted too.

We know for sure people are capable of original thoughts. If there were no prior movies to learn from, a human could figure out how to make one, just as the pioneers in film making did.

On the other hand, models cannot, they need large quantities of existing source material, so it's unclear if they're capable of original work, and likely it's derivative.

> Do we raise copyright to the point that no one can produce new work

You don't actually have to raise copyright at all, it only takes for a court to say that ML training isn't fair use, that's all. It would only exclude ML training from fair use, meaning the people training the model would need to get a license approval from the copyright owners.

> or accept a world where generative art lowers the bar for making art?

Yes, that's the question of Fair Use. We might consider the infringement to be a net positive and want to include it as Fair Use.

Normally that's what Fair Use looks at, it's the balance between what's right by the authors, and what's best by society.

I think it's totally fair to say it be best here to allow this use because the benefit to society of that technology are worth it.

I also think it be fair to say that the benefits are not worth it compared to the loss inflicted on artists, or to think that most companies investing in AI would actually have the mean to compensate the artists anyways so it wouldn't even stifle ML innovation while also being fair to the artists.

Personally I'm still debating it with myself and not sure where I stand.

But I think it's very misleading and disingenuous to pretend that the ML model isn't even using copyrighted material or deriving work from it, and to pretend like it's similar to an artist simply looking at other people's work or being inspired by other people's work. It's very different in many ways, the process, the mechanisms, the nature, the function, the ethics, the financial applications, the capabilities, there's just so many differences here.

Why does language describe the physical world at all?
That needs to be fixed.
The problem is sometimes you lose a lot of functionality when you allow for that flexibility. For example, let's say you want your functional language to allow for side effects. Immediately you've lost locality: the explicit arguments of a function no longer guarantee their results. Or maybe you want to allow mutability: there goes thread safety. The fewer hard restraints a language can impose, the less lifting the language can do on your behalf. Give up on Lisp's S-expressions, and the macro system becomes vastly more complicated.

Likewise, a language has a limited amount of space for syntax before you end up a mess. So languages adopt a paradigm, and optimize the language for that paradigm. Functional-style Java is bloated to hell, because Java is built for Object Oriented programming.

Frankly, I'm of the opposite mind of the quote: the middle ground is often worse than either extreme. I'll happily write Object Oriented C#, or Functional Haskell, over a tepid mess of C++.

Even DSLRs have issues with image quality at concerts. Red lights are frequently used at concerts and cause notorious issues, regardless of camera.

Both groceries and gas are sold at low profit margins - I've heard as low as 1-2% for groceries. They are commodities, there's a lot of competition, and shoppers are very price conscious. If grocery stores can make a profit selling food cheaper they will. If grocery stores can pay less rent for their stores, pay less wages for their staff, pay less for all their expenses, those savings will get passed down to consumers as cheaper food.
Imagine if you spent that billion dollars on improving the situation around housing to add incentive for affordable housing projects, purpose-built rental, and multi-tenant dwellings, so that the path of least resistance (and most profit) would be to build the housing that the community needs.
That’s not a conversation or a discussion…

Yes. And even during dusk and dawn, most operational satellites are not visible. What you see is mostly a few low orbiting things like ISS and Hubble (and now Tiangong), and spent rocket stages that weren't responsibly deorbited. You can see Starlink satellites too, but only while they are raising their orbits just after launch. When they reach operational altitude, where they stay for the vast majority of their lifespan, they are no longer visible to the naked eye.

Those of us of a certain vintage remember this precise issue with Fortran a couple decades ago, and those out there of a certain further vintage probably remember it with COBOL. So on and so forth back through PL/I, Algol, and so on to the dawn of time.

While there have certainly been consequences of the dearth of COBOL and Fortran devs, ultimately the world has thus far survived. We'll survive the obsolescence of C++ (if indeed that's what this is).

It will never happen...for the DOJ to go after a company it needs to have market share of 70% and upwards, whereas despite billions of dollars in subsidies and credits Tesla can't even make it to 1% of yearly global new car sales.

1% in 20 years. Ladies and gentlemen the backbone of the global industrial economy. Not. However that's how the cult leader...ehm I mean the CEO advertises it to the world.

However, as with any other tool, you have to use Codegen intelligently to get the benefits. I have more than once seen Codegen being used really badly. Making the people using it think that Codegen is always a bad idea. Codegen is a complex tool and there are many ways to use it incorrectly.
