If the workflow is different, then it's _not_ just a question of terminology. In that case it's probably a good thing that there are different names for the various workflows.
what about older versions of the books? usually if you go back a couple versions it's much much cheaper.

I don’t know, just the other day I saw someone warning against falling for M1/M2 for StableDiffusion inference(people buy new computers to run SD apparently!), claiming that same code take two orders of magnitude longer on M1/M2 against a 3080.

So maybe an M1/M2 Air isn’t faster than Intel(+NVIDIA) machine at TDP, maybe it’s magnificent that it’s only 100 times slower than a proper desktop, maybe it is still a lightweight ARM laptop, just (salivatingly) nice ones.
That's because this thread is discussing Twitter's new work conditions and severance offers, which are leading to many engineers quitting (on top of those that were already fired). It's different from the broader industry where more superfluous roles were targeted for layoffs.

That clip is definitely an extreme example, something like below as a hybrid example diving into arm aim and wrist aim is more typical. trouble is having your sensitivity low enough for fine motions, while still being able to do large movements like a 180 fairly easily/without having to lift and recenter, both of which depend on personal preference. Depends a bit on the game too.

Bad for tech business whose cost is aggressively on R&D and revenue not inflation-proof.
Doesn't MMT actually prescribe the exact opposite? One central "layman's" understanding I have about MMT (and honestly happy to be corrected if I'm wrong) is that, for countries that control their own currency, you don't really have to care much about deficits and debt in low inflation environments. You only have to worry about them in as much as they relate to inflation.

Well, inflation is currently sky-fucking high, so right now is when MMT would say you do have to worry about deficits and debt.

> I'm not a fan of Zuckerberg, but his communication about the layoff at Meta was much more timely, clear and empathetic than this note from Jassy.

Ironically I remember some rabblerousing around Zuck's announcement as well but overall I would have to agree; Meta was a bit more transparent vs the staggered approach we are seeing from Amazon.

It's weird because there's still a 'public gap' with at least Amazon's announcement; as a person who has been at bigcorps, I know a hiring freeze is not a hard freeze or transfer-freeze, necessarily. But the overall messaging here is a bit more grim.

> Plus the added departures just from the stress of not knowing who gets cut next.

My cynical and experienced self knows that I've sat in interviews where beforehand I was given a psychological profile based on how the candidate answered a questionnaire. (The company was sub 2k employees, which is worth mentioning because it obfuscates who I'm referring to but also shows how 'accessible' this service is.)

From this viewpoint, I'd have to say they are hoping that the people who don't jump ship are those confident enough their existing options will vest that they will stay, and can handle the impending work-life-balance disruptions.

Of course, they might not -actually- be able to. And some who think they can, cannot, and that will come out in the woodwork.

Perhaps more sadly though, are those who couldn't make it and suffered external effects.

It's a real concern. I was 'stuck' in a job due to the Great Recession and the consequences of not just quitting and doing some random minwage gig cost me a good 5+ years of my life to get back on my feet (There's still parts I'm trying to fix!)

I think the only caveat here is it only works for software which is mostly offline. If you software is highly dependent on Cloud services then maintaining backwards compatibility for the people who have stopped paying and use old versions quickly becomes costly. But I guess if your software is dependent on Cloud services than it is more of a service.
Great in theory - but in practice you can't manufacture your product due to supply chain issues triggered by economic uncertainty and under-investment by your suppliers. Even if you could get your product out there, consumers aren't inclined to make new non-essential purchases when their household finances are being strained by mortgage and car loan rate rises.

Looking forward to broad support for :has() ... infinite number of good potential use cases. The grid layout example is probably the most interesting here, though the syntax will certainly also make forms more flexible with less structural complexity.

That said, personally I put a bit of effort into achieving (dynamic) ends without javascript (despite being a js dev) and find form styling, with it's intrinsic state, one of the less-problematic things to style. In fact, I tend to use input elements in a bunch of unconventional places as state machines in place of js. Hamburger menus, overlays (prior to the <dialog> tag), dark mode toggle, etc. have all been prime candidates for "previous-sibling" (or "parent-previous-sibling") input treatment.

In the form examples provided, the <labels> being styled could easily be included "after" the <input> in code (regardless of where they appear visually) allowing them to be targeted based on state/focus of the input. Similarly the :focus-within vs :has(:focus-visible) consideration is interesting, but in reality not really a massive concern and certainly not a blocker. The fact that people have relied on JS for this stuff traditionally I think is the bigger concern for me. Here's to progress!

P.S. I mainly like the idea of low/no js from an academic perspective. But I do think it comes in handy in surprising situations, both when a random no-js purist stumbles across your site and is able to do something, but also when something breaks (naughty browser plugin, broken script, dodgy refactor) and people are still able to open your nav / close your popover / fill in your complaints form.
<iframe>, <object>, and <embed> all work. But you need to add target="_parent" or target="_top" to all links.

Can you teach me about this, like with a link or something? I have known wealthy people who for generations kept a portfolio like 60% equities, 35% cash and very liquid things like bonds, ~3-5% gold, usually in the form of equities that track gold.

A changelist is most generally a Perforce term (and as may the case for Google, a similar concept). In the Perforce Helix Core (what the "Perforce Server" is currently called), changelists are increasing integers that mark units of atomic change. Changelists can contain committed work, pending work, or shelved work (a shelf is un-committed work that resides server-side). Shelves are often how code review is done since the file content and metadata is available outside of the author's computer.
Thanks for the very in-depth reply. I've only been doing it for ~5 months now, so definitely consider myself a "junior" in the space.

What we've done is fork a popular defi protocol (think AAVE/Compound) that consists of >10 core contracts, plus additional for markets, and made a few changes. Then deployed a few custom contracts as well. I've written ~100-200 lines of solidity that are on mainnet now, the rest, as you say, are snapping together Openzeppelin legos.

We're not using The Graph for our frontend (yet) though I think we want to in the future.

Our current stack is Hardhat (with ethers) for both deployment and testing, and react + typescript + react-query on the frontend.

We're able to get contracts deployed on a hardhat node or goerli pretty quickly now, but, for example, if deploying to goerli, the 200-300 transactions for the deployment process take ~1 hour to send through, so it's really just where we deploy right before we release (in addition to testing on a fork of mainnet).

The tooling here is all kind of new though. Example: if I want to fork mainnet, test an upgrade, and then test frontend changes which use that forked net, as an account which I don't have the key for, I just.. can't right now. Hardhat lets you impersonate accounts which is amazing, but no frontend wallet lets you send unsigned transactions using an impersonated account (which effectively uses provider-managed signers).

The "best" way I found to do this is forking an open-source browser wallet extension, hacking it a bit, and hardcoding the account I want to send the unsigned transaction for, to the hardcoded local RPC endpoint, which requires an extension reload, and is still finicky.

Eventually I think the tooling will get there, but for right now it still seems fairly immature to me.
At around 8 years old i went out with each of my kids and we bought a second hand PC together and setup Linux.

We purchased a working computer, but I went through the motions of pulling out the hard drive and the RAM when we got home and then we went through a process of “building the computer together”, screw driver, case off etc.

Having my kids start on Linux has massively levelled their tech skills up and setting up coding tools has been much more intuitive and natural.

My son it’s now a coder and a very competent Linux user and his ops skills have supported him as he has begun coding professional now that he has graduated.

It's only spoken of in the media positively in the context of newer tech companies.

My first programming job was at a defense contractor no doubt considered "stodgy" by the cool kids. Their newest office building was environmentally friendly (~70% naturally lit), and its cafeteria complex was large, well-managed and had both innovative and healthy options (e.g. a pay-by-the-ounce salad bar).

This was in 1983.

I don't really eat any apple by itself. I don't find it to be a very good fruit on its own regardless of variety.
"Control theory" isn't a term I'm particularly familiar with, but I can at least say that this isn't correct. Cybernetics didn't exist in any unified fashion prior to Wiener writing the book on it in 1948, and it didn't last more than a couple decades afterwards before being laundered piecemeal into mathematics, technical subfields, philosophy/anthropology, and a couple other things of varying interest (Stafford Beer's "Management Cybernetics" is probably the most notable example).

There was a particular schelling point in the '40s surrounding Wiener (and Shannon, Von Neumann, etc) and the Macy Conferences who were searching for an interdisciplinary umbrella, and found it in Cybernetics. It began as something decidedly "para-academic" and never really grew beyond that. The scope of Cybernetics was — and probably is — too broad to fit into a rigid departmental system. Instead of thinking of it as "going" away, it is probably more accurate to say that it never really arrived.
That’s an interesting chain of thought considering that prior generations emphasized savings and prudence even more than baby boomers did, and were undoubtedly better acquainted with death than millennials. Indeed, in 1960, when baby boomers were children, the US had an under 5 mortality rate of over 3%, comparable to India today and high enough where nearly everyone knew children who had died.

Fair point, and to that extent reviews can still be useful. However many code changes are small, bug fixes, or straight forward changes, so the main benefit would still be the same. There could be an option to wait for human reviews if needed.
I'd say it's one of many potential problems. We've already observed a couple interstellar comets, right? So we actually already know that there are objects out there.

Property tests are nice for lots of things, but for an AST parser? You'd basically have to re-implement the parser in order to test the parser, wouldn't you?

> The window of availability for something like Gravensteins and Pink Pearls out here is about a month.

The window for pretty much all apples is a few weeks. That is exactly why they all go to cold storage. If the growers don't pack them directly into storage the brokers and wholesalers will. Apples are worth more in the off season.

Unless you are shopping at a farmers market or a roadside stand, they have spent some time in a CA room.

> The sweetest apples you're talking about are probably the mealy ones folks are complaining about

Mealy apples are caused by the cell walls breaking down. The most common cause is refrigeration after they have been chemically ripened. Either spending too much time in the refrigerated grocery logistics chain or in your refrigerator at home.
well, can you?
Another way to phrase my response to #1 above is that sinusoids are the natural modes of many systems. That is, you put a sinusoid in, and you get a sinusoid of the same frequency out. It may change in amplitude and/or phase, but it still has the same fundamental shape. This is again because these systems act like harmonic oscillators or systems of harmonic oscillators.

So why harmonic oscillators? The same analysis shows up any time you have a restoring force proportional to, and in the opposite direction of, the displacement. This shows up in springy things (recall the old mechanical engineer's adage: everything's a spring until it breaks), and fields of all sorts (electric, gravitational, magnetic, pressure).

Matt Levine Explains the World: A ‘Weird’ Walk in the Park with Star Columnist
This list reeks of middle-brow hipster ignorance:

1. If you’re judging an apple by its year round availability (as the site creator does), then you’ve basically admitted that you’re only randomly running into apples that are at their best. Some apples are amazing at their peak, but very mediocre when not at their peak.

2. As others have mentioned, there are many variables that influence the texture, taste, and appearance of an apple. If you live far away from where the apples are grown, you will mostly see either the negative side of these variables or the downsides introduced by breeding that allow these apples to get to your market. We don’t even know the geographic base(s) of the author.

I really appreciate the author’s effort, but the execution and/or presentation needs a lot of work.

I’m sure that a tour of orchards that are far from where the author lives would have him rethinking many of his rankings.
