> Why is the media reporting like this is actually happening?

Because the Ukranians have been running a fairly successful counter-offensive and pushing within artillery range of the city. It's quite clearly an untenable position for the current state of the Russian army.

They're not going to be dumb about it; any withdrawal will show up on satellite, and will take time. Ukraine isn't likely to rush on in recklessly.
That is a silly argument. Is there a name for this kind of fallacy?

I've seen it used a number of times and I cringed a little every time.
Thanks, I was thinking you were talking about [production systems] Linux.
I was preparing myself for disappointment because I expected the new version to be accompanied by subscription pricing, but this is an incredible value.

I only casually mess around with the ipad version at the moment, but I'm tempted to purchase the whole suite because it's such a friendly deal.
Because that gives the studio the reputation of being a deadbeat. All the incentives point towards "keep disputes private and resolve them out of court if possible".

Obviously, if the studios never pay, then nobody agrees to work for them, and the whole system of creative production just collapses.

It won’t. Real estate is on track for at least 20% crash from here. People with 3% rates don’t want to sell and move to 7%. So, they are renting out at loss and therefore renting is becoming amazingly cheaper compared to buying. This further reduces demand and increases supply and it’s a classic recursive cycle that will only accelerate as rates will go up even more for next 6 months. My advice would be to rent house of your dream for next year while housing crashes. The best time for buying would be when interest rate hits below 4%.

> they lost the unvested stock aka their hold out compensation of past 4 years they worked for

Are you assuming a 4 year cliff or why would one lose 4 years worth of stock?

Interesting point you're bringing up. Personally I wouldn't count unvested stock as part of my wealth.
Oh, I wasn't accusing the submitter of being clickbaity, but rather the author of the article (unless that is you). Also I don't love it but I understand the "hustle" of tech sites like Lifehacker and don't begrudge them too much for using something like "hidden". I think HN submission rules are the match the title of the article so I never was asking for the HN submitter to change it, it's not their "fault" if "fault" even has to be laid anywhere.
As far as I’m aware most of the people who’ve lost their jobs were headhunters. Makes sense to let them go now that FB stopped hiring.
I used to experiment a bunch with GPU passthrough to VMs and also found that CPU pinning was required to avoid stutters. I always found it unfortunate as pinning works directly against what one tries to achieve with virtualization (i.e. sharing of resources).

I had never considered telecom suffering from the same issue. Do you know if there's been any work to improve scheduling to mitigate this requirement?

Open-sourcing something does not imply that¹ at all, since open-sourcing almost always equals to releasing as free software. It's the choice to talk about the source now being open, as opposed to the users now being free, that reflects a different points of focus in the wider community, and tends to reflect one's motivations and point of view as well.

If you hold the firm belief that software users ought to be free, and that is your main motivation for releasing something as free software, you are likely to talk about it. If you give users freedom 'on accident' while opening up your source, whether it's because that's convenient for you, you think that's mutually beneficial, or you just choose whatever term seems the most popular since you don't have a belief of your own to base the choice on, it goes to show that users' freedom is not your primary concern. Now you might not necessarily think that's a bad thing, but if you do, it might be a good idea not to put your faith in an entity that doesn't share your concerns, and is only aligned with them on accident, for the moment.

1. EDIT: 'that' meaning 'not being proponents of software freedom'. I did not realise your comment mentioned two different implications at first; sorry if that has caused any confusion.
Sorry I wasn't clear - beta-reduction is formal, I was trying to refer to the extension of the formal treatment of lambdas to cover proofs, formal logic and typechecking. Shen does this for typechecking.
Now, you need an access code to do your homework. It costs more than the textbook, and cannot be shared, rented, copied, or sold when you’re done with it. The reason it is so expensive is because it comes with a “optimized” etextbook to help you when you’re stuck on homework. The average I’d say is around $120

Predatory practices all around.
Performative work is hard work. =)
On timing the market: you cannot time the market. However, you can have a sense of what the historical rates for mortgages are and will probably return to.

Back when they were at ridiculously low levels, I would tell people "Get a 15-year loan now! You'll be paying off principal as well as interest, real soon."

They'd object, reasonably, "Oh, I can't afford those payments!" So now with higher rates, what will they pay for that 30-year?

You can also object that nothing stops you from making extra principal payments, on top of your regular monthly payment. That's true. But will you?

Is all that incorrect? You can do this analysis in Excel or Google Sheets.
For more macro level coverage, Perun[1] does a really good job at doing a deep dive into various strategic issues that affect the conflict.

For example, his first video: "All Bling, No Basics"[2] does a good job explaining why the Russian military had such a difficult time during the early part of the conflict compared to the predictions by most of the analysts at the time.

Just be aware that his shtick is hour long power point presentations.

But why would the national governments agree to do this? Most people wouldn't really care if they got a dollar or not so I expect that there wouldn't be overwhelming public pressure for most governments to do this, and the governments would correctly think that doing this would be more trouble than it is worth.

I don’t think it’s arrogant to be concerned about such a tool especially considering that other peoples livelihood also depend on such important tools like react. It’s possible to be concerned about the people developing a tool AND the tool itself.
Certainly, because it probably never existed as a function for wheel. Do you have any evidence that the "well duh" criteria wasn't used, and hex wheels show up in the archeological record?
I was at Meta when this was tweeted and I think he must be referring to mostly internal apps. AFAIK the only part of the FB app that was heavily React Native was FB Marketplace.

Would be very nice to have both! It's about time we got better image formats.

That said, unfortunately AVIF is not a substitute for JPEG XL...

1. AVIF has an order of magnitude slower saving / encoding speed vs JPEG XL.

2. AVIF in "lossless" mode tends to be bigger than PNG- and it isn't truly lossless, just best effort (based on the AV1 video format).

3. JPEG XL supports orders of magnitude higher resolution, bit depth, and is an actual replacement for lossless PNG.
I think that is exactly not how to look at it.

Instead, consider that you chose to leverage your web development work by taking what fb has jumpstarted with a lot of their cash. You can also think of it as second-hand-investment for your thing, and you don't have to sell any part of that to get the money/talent.

And yeah sure, that second-hand-investment money might dry up at some point, but you can still continue to use what you got when you decided to go that route (it's not like your react project is going to suddenly fail, why would it), and since it's a huge project and you are not the only one to have made that choice, you can likely still count on enough third-hand-investment for it to not be any problem in the future.

All in all, I would say that if this is your most worrisome dependency you are probably in pretty good shape.

From my own search on this topic:

Science can only do so much with the 'internal' meaning. All people I've read are inadequate or point to religion.

Religions, across the board, sure seems to be solely focused on purpose and meaning.

If you want purpose outside yourself, I'd look to a religion or a group that functions similarly. I dug Alan Watts and the like for awhile. More recently have liked St Augustine and other apologetics.

I know the concept religion causes raised flags but I do suggest that you are least give it an open mind while you search.
There are still major breakthrough and improvements every few weeks, so I really wouldn't worry about already having hit rock bottom.

But even ignoring that, we have barely even stared exploring what we can do with the technology as is. A lot of it is still just experiments living in a git repository or need more GPU than the average person has. Give it a few more months or years, and you'll have it integrated into every major photo and video editor software and optimized to run on normal consumer hardware. That simple improvement in accessibility will have very wide reaching consequences just by itself, even without improving the underlying AI drastically.

And no, you won't replace the professional artists anytime soon, after all somebody still need to have the final say into what goes into the game, but it will drastically transform how that artist will work and the amount of content they'll be able to produce.

> e.g., unless it's a very low effort, low quality game.

The output of Midjourney and Co. already looks spectacular, easily better than a lot of games out there. I could easily see that replacing or enhancing a lot of art in 2D RPGs, point&click adventures or visual novels.

Everything that needs animation or 3D meshes will take a while longer, but for 2D games it's already more than good enough. It's really more an issue with artists and game developers still needing to catch up on all the rapid new developments that happened over the last few months.
Not exactly, only the "living expenses" part of the salary can get this "equivalence multiple" applied. The rest of the salary should be counted 1:1 with the US because other purchases cost the same regardless of where you are (branded clothes, travelling, buying a laptop, buying a car, investing for retirement, stocks cost the same everywhere). So it's more like the first 20k are like getting paid 100k and the rest of the 80k will just be 80k, so more or less 200k equivalent.

It's very hard purely on cost of living to match a salary of 500k anywhere in the world, because at some point the extra items / investments all cost the same regardless of geography.

> To see ahead-of-time translated Rosetta code, I believe I had to disable SIP, compile a new x86 binary, give it a unique name, run it, and then run otool -tv /var/db/oah///unique-name.aot (or use your tool of choice – it’s just a Mach-O binary). This was done on old version of macOS, so things may have changed and improved since then.

I worked at Ticketmaster when covid first hit. Since the beginning, management has always been positive and re-iterating that the cash reserves are substantial and the company can endure the loss of revenue. Then the first layoff hit. Same re-iteration. We are good. Then came the second layoff.

> Most bootcampers are gone, even ones that were performing well.

What are bootcampers, does this just mean recent hires? Or people who came in with no specialist skills who rotate until they find a team?
> I can’t identify one monolithic hyper-normative “correct” credo in

Not monolithic but compressed. And not in actuality but in
expectation.

> In my lifetime I have seen the variety of speech (US based tho I

in variety.

Yes! 60 years ago you had one job for life and dressed accordingly.
Today you've been a Punk who works at Tesco, an Emo in IT, a Greaser
in sales and a management suit by the time you're 25. The acceptable
expectation is that you "advance". Restive variety of expression is de
rigueur.

> From three TV stations and the newspaper to hundreds of channels,
espousing everything from Yoga...

I disagree here. While the manifest variety of (mainly user generated)
content has enriched, late capitalism has compressed meaningful choice
via consolidation. There were 60 newspapers only couple of decades
ago, scores of media companies... now we talk about the Big Five (or
is it the Big Three now?)

> People write a lot about how they can’t express their beliefs
anymore, but you can be a flat earther and be on YouTube and have
conventions.

Indeed, that's part of the paradox around expectation. Writing about
being oppressed by the man is normative. A "flat earther" could even
work for NASA doing orbital calculations, and nobody would bat an
eyelid, provided they did "flat earth stuff" in a respectable,
acceptable way.

What is allowed and what is "expected" (and most cruelly expected
of/by ourselves) are different things.
Is that sarcasm? Otherwise what advantage do you see in living under a dictatorship?

Exactly. Buying is not always a good financial decision either. In current environment, renting makes far better financial sense than buying.

European polling remains very strongly pro-Ukraine, despite already massive hits to energy costs. 62-14 in the UK (https://www.ipsos.com/en-uk/public-continues-support-britain...), 70-21 in Germany (https://www.euractiv.com/section/energy-environment/news/ger...). Those costs are easing now, as well, as Europe has successfully filled up significant reserves and had a very mild November.

NIX is not making any strong gains of market share with desktops and laptops. Windows still at around 75%. Looks like it's going to stay that way for years to come.

Arguably, the true challenger is Google, and leveraging Android and their smartphone dominance, to gain market share on laptops. Which would allow Linux to come along for a free ride. But, Google seems to have got sidetracked with Chrome OS and Fuchsia, which are non-threats to Microsoft. Not to mention any deals about "territory" that they may also have with Microsoft.

Apple takes bites at Windows dominance on desktops and laptops, but they are too niche and "elitist" to become common nor can they break Microsoft's hold on businesses and Office product use.

I'd count myself as an Erlang developer. But where I worked, we didn't hire many people who had used Erlang before; and I didn't either. It's a small language, and it doesn't take too long for someone who's done a couple languages before to be productive and/or dangerous in it. Yes, immutable is a change; yes, recursion instead of loops is a mindfuck; Yes, a smart person can figure it out and deal. Personally, I loved the promise of Elixir --- BEAM with syntax that's better than Erlang, but I was hoping for different syntax, so I'm out; but it's fine, it seems to be a gravity well drawing people into BEAM, which is a good thing, IMHO.

I'm not going to reach for libraries in Erlang, because mostly I've seen them not be there, and a lot of stuff is almost the same amount of code and fuss to use a library as to build the portion of the library that's actually needed in the moment. Any code that you bring in is code that you're running and responsible for, so it's got to be worth it. I've pulled in libraries that needed a lot of rewriting, and sometimes that's better than starting from scratch, and sometimes it's not. There's a fair amount of stuff out there where someone scratched their itch and left it as is; which is fine and thank you, but it might need a lot of help to be run in a production capacity.

I'm working a new job now and there's probably no Erlang in it. Which is sad, but I'll deal. That said, if I was working in Erlang and management said we had to switch, I would be out. It's one thing to work without the benefits of Erlang, it's another to be working with them and then have it taken away.
I suggest that you create a purpose for your life, rather than finding it.
You're actually comparing a data structure (KD trees) to a library (scann and faiss). HNSW is the data structure that is commonly used by vector search databases. If we're in the Rust world, Qdrant is a great example here.
