It probably does help that both Python and Rust treat FFI as first-class in terms of importance. That said, yeah, PyO3 is a pretty awesome suite to work with.
The second study shows that the mice were fed chow with up to 8% sodium by weight... is it fair to compare that to a Beyond Burger?
Change bitcoin to US dollars. "If you owned all of the dollars in the world and you offered it to me for $25, I would not take it..."

The same argument applies.
That form factor with chiclet keys is so, so wrong.

I do wonder why there aren't more retrocomputer raspberry pi project boxes. Would be cool to have an IBM 5100 on my desk.
> Tailwind CSS is just CSS

This is simply not the case. In order to use Tailwind, you need to know names of Tailwind classes, which are not part of the CSS standard. To say that Tailwind is just CSS is like saying that Ramda is just javascript.
AFAICT, x32 is basically dead.

I'm gonna go out on very thin ice and disagree with a Donald Knuth quote:

> It is absolutely idiotic to have 64-bit pointers when I compile a program that uses less than 4 gigabytes of RAM. When such pointer values appear inside a struct, they not only waste half the memory, they effectively throw away half of the cache.

In general if shrinking the pointer size is a huge optimization, your data structures have too many pointers in them. Learning Rust was a turning point for me here. The borrow checker encouraged me to get rid of references to parents or siblings. In general, I ended up passing parent references on the program stack and having sibling references (e.g. in graph structures) via indices into a slab, which can be u32 rather than pointer-sized. You could also write a SmallVec/SmallString that uses u32 for len/capacity rather than usize, which would be a nice savings if you have lots of them. And/or move the len/capacity inside the heap allocation, so empty/unallocated vecs/strings don't have those fields at all. Or do what Rust's smallvec crate does and C++'s std::string's "small string optimization" does: carve out the space for them but use it for actual object storage until it overflows and you need to move to the heap.

If you're working in a language that doesn't have value objects (that is, all user-defined structures are implicitly boxed), my sympathy, you will just end up with a bunch of extra pointers, which is why this kind of optimization is important for Java and JS. I consider lack of value objects to be a significant design flaw in a language.

AC uses 3kw’s and many homes have two, so during a heat wave, it seems like those transformers should already be severely overloaded.

A clear saving grace of EVs is that there is a lot of hours during the evening to charge a car (and most aren’t going from zero). Coordination on when to start and trickle charging across the whole evening seems like a much cheaper way to stretch the grid’s capacity than mass upgrades.
> The fact that so many people bought into the hype will continue to amaze me for the rest of my life.

I'm on about year 10 of this amazement. Even tulip mania only lasted 1-2 years. Crypto keeps inventing new snake oil and is continually able to sell it. It's so odd to me.
I wonder if originally the only way to preserve the familial land ownership laws and clan leadership rules was to have American Samoans as legal residents but not citizens. Such a kludge is the only reasonable justification I have ever found convincing, outside the arguments used at the time that were clearly farcical then and even moreso now.
You don't have to resort to just browser extensions but you do have to MTIM yourself.

Dollar bills are backed by the full faith and credit by the US Government. As long as the US Government decides those have value (IE: forces you to pay taxes denominated in bills), then anyone interacting with the government will value those bills.

As a centralized currency, the power flows from the Government. If the US Government loses power, of course dollar bills lose value. But generally speaking, the trust in the dollar is one-and-the-same as trust in the US Government.
What about pictures of monkeys?
You could pay your taxes. And all the others who need to pay their taxes, would need to trade valuable things to you for the dollars they need to pay their taxes. Also, almost all world trade is ultimately settled in dollars. And so, if you want to buy oil/food/fertilizer/machine tools/etc. on the world market, you need those dollar bills again.
This isn't true, I'll gladly pay $3 a bitcoin just to get back to my old stash of 10 BTC. Therefore, it's never going to be zero.
Yeah...it was pretty much an olive branch to the dead-enders who hadn't drunk the RISC coolaide. Most all of the shops I knew who bought them had some critical app that wasn't being ported to SPARC. Sun also had the 3/400 series servers that were 68030 based.

The 3/80 was also notable for using the Sparcstation expansion bus called 'SBus', which Sun used to claim SBus was an 'architecture neutral' expansion bus and tried to position it as a competitor to PCI (for a very short period of time). I went to a Sun SBus hardware design class at one point...it was a nifty design but clearly wasn't getting market traction outside Sun.
So you’re a gold bug?
The US government accepts these for debts and issues debts denominated in these.
Exactly. The same argument can be applied to dollars, to all dollars, not the bills only.
No it does not. See my previous comment.
If you dig a little deeper you’ll find that methylcellulose has some interesting culinary properties, making it well suited to adding structure and firm texture to soft foods.

When mixed with water it transforms into a firm gel after heating, or it can be used to create extremely resilient emulsifications.

It’s practically flavourless, so it works well. I’m not convinced it passes through the GI tract with no impact whatsoever, but it appears so far to be relatively benign.

It’s nothing like sawdust or a filler, though. It’s also somewhat expensive so it wouldn’t be a good option for filler. My 500g bag was around $25, but if you wanted to use actual sawdust, well I think you could get that for close to nothing.
I was just shocked. Last night I’m like “hmm need to maintain aspect ratio on this box. Maybe I can use calc and vh or something.

The 10x Development Environment
forth definitely has a language in it but i don't think the language is what led people to prefer it to, e.g., c or a nice macro assembler

(i'd say 'leads' but there don't seem to be a lot of people doing things in forth these days; duncan's 01988 estimate of 50000 'serious' forth programmers seems two orders of magnitude higher than seems likely today)

i think the appeal is that in 16k or 64k you get a repl which (unixlike) doubles as a scriptable ui, a sort of source-level debugging, interactive variable inspection (and i/o port poking, memory dumping, etc.), instant turnaround for changes (no 'my code's compiling'), multithreading, virtual memory, an assembler and disassembler, an extensible compiler with a turing-complete macro system, and dramatically better code density than machine code

all of that makes a pretty appealing package, especially for certain kinds of tasks, and it's only loosely coupled to the language qua language

as duncan points out, part of the appeal is that the development environment is a lot more integrated than something like turbo pascal
On the Ethereum side, the cryptocurrency is used as an incentive for nodes to operate the global EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine), which processes smart contract transactions. So one could argue that as long as the transactions have at least some value to some application, the cryptocurrency will also have non-zero value.
Did something happen to DHH recenly, or was it a slow slide into this?
interesting take! I started using tailwind with the classnames library early on and found it to be a really nice fit for my purposes. Also very interested in more tailwind-specific tools like tw-classed[1]

Buffett began his answer by saying that if all the attendees in the conference owned “all the farmland in the United States” or “all the apartments in the country” and they offered him a 1% stake for $25 billion, he would write them a check on the spot. (then went on to say that about bitcoin)
> As long as drugs stay illegal and some countries have worse money swings than the crypto does

These are both problems that hopefully we will get better at solving. I think even if neither of those things quite goes to zero, there is a minimum combined level of both needed to keep the ecosystem running and secure. There needs to be enough economic activity passing through the system to pay enough miners to keep it running.

I also think that if the main usage of crytpocurrencies becomes avoiding unstable currencies, that will itself destablize cryptocurrency prices.
Tried to eat a NotBurger last night. I couldn't finish it... because my meat-eating girlfriend took it for herself. Their milk is pretty good too.

The relevant part is "to incrase his or her own traffic".

Bruce Schneier is one of the most famous cryptography researchers. I doubt he needs more traffic. Intent matters, and when he reposts and summarises a Guardian article, this is probably done for the benefit of readers who already follow his blog.
Warren Buffet got his start with pinball machines, which have no inherent value beyond entertainment. His only option was to sell back the pinball machine either all at once or in pieces at a time through timeshare (quarters for a game).

Me too but I know several financially smart people who acknowledged in private it was a giant bubble of thin air, but they had the trader mentality that it doesn't matter what the real price should be, as long as there is money to be made trading it. As long as they didn't get caught in the end, I don't think they were wrong.

By the way, it's not just a lot of second hand GPUs that will come back to the market. A lot of quants too!
I hate Tailwind with the passion of a million suns. It's loved by novices and those who don't know what they're doing, almost exclusively. They claim they know CSS, but will fail after any casual test.

The best arguments against it:

1. Spamming utility classes causes horrible git commits, git history, git difference checks;

2. Conflicting utility classes aren't clear, and sometimes the order cannot be trusted;

3. Replacing `p-4` with `p-4` will require you to replace its occurrence all over your app, sometimes affecting thousands of matches. And since there is no context to it, it'll be hard to JUST replace them where you would want them to.

Vanilla CSS using `:root` declaration, a fixed base size (using `rem` and `em`), CSS variables and `calc()` are SO powerful.

In almost every single use case, using vanilla CSS or SCSS is far superior. For React projects (and Vue.js, and Svelte, and Angular), I'd recommend anyone to just use (S)CSS modules. It's so elegant and doesn't come with any of the disadvantages.

Except maybe a slightly larger package size. Minimally so. Your framework of choice should be (or allow) code splitting to take place. And a few bytes more or less aren't going to make or break most websites.
NGL, most of it just looks kinda innocuously edgy and made for shock value. For all we know she's had like 1 edgy photo out of 100 normal ones and then someone just collated the creepiest ones? Do we know the context of any of these?

[Edited to add: I don't know any of these people, fashion, or anything. I'm however extremely skeptical of conspiracy theory talk, poorly-contextualized information, and so need way more than context-free photos allegedly from an instagram page.]
I get it, and I somewhat resent it.

The user perception of OS is mostly third party software availability and driver support. I've used all three, and as far as "operating system" comes, Linux is the only thing that feels good to use.

But, I suppose the analogy isn't entirely inaccurate either. MJ is entirely owned by someone else, it can be removed at any time, including anyone's availability. While SD is flexible, allows a stable foundation to be built on, and you can extend it any way you want...

I couldn't have built a gRPC based wrapper around MJ, set up a bot that listens to prompts sent through telegram, and post back images. Hm.. or I suppose one could do the same with with MJ API... so, bad example :D

The best config I've found is to have the pihole use NextDNS as its upstream server and have the DHCP server on the router hand out the pihole's ip as the DNS server. Have tailscale set up on the pihole as a subnet router so it gives you access to your home network on the move. Then have your tailscale dns point to the tailscale ip of your pihole.

All machines on your local net now use the pihole as dns as handed out by the router, and when you roam tailscale routes your dns to your pihole.

If you're travelling overseas though, it makes sense to reconfigure tailscale to use NextDNS directly so its faster.

I am loving all this emacs love lately (I am an emacsophile), but I do find all this attention it is getting suddenly a bit surprising. Is it just that "long lines, LSP, fast syntax hightlighting" is making new people interested, or is it just us neckbeards coming out of the woods? I mean, many of these things are just a package-install away right now. I seldom see vim put in the same lime-light, for instance.

Or maybe I am just more attentive to the coverage now?

I’ve done this and found it fairly annoying to manage, and of limited value because if you’re editing a shoot you will want to have some visual consistency which means if most are RAW that you have given a style to in your edits, the same settings will look totally whack on any JPEGs anyway.

For one offs? Maybe I guess.

Some people also swear by editing at the point of shoot (Ken Rockwell for instance, but his logic sounds absurd today) and thus use JPEG.
>Dunno what happened with the photo shoot but probably the director was like put some paper on the table, and someone was like what papers, supreme court document, find some on the internet, I found a ruling about free speech and child porn, Ok great.

There is absolutely zero chance that any choice associated with a professional photo shoot was made flippantly, especially for fashion of any kind. Every hair, every spec of dirt, and every single thing in every single shot is intentional.

Not quite. With US Dollars, you could pay the US government to not send the MenWithGuns to your house because you failed to pay income tax on "all the dollars in the world" coming in to your possession.

It is a crucial difference.

If you want to say, this isn't really that solid a foundation to build a money system on... hey, I'm right there myself, honestly. The US dollar really is based on "the full faith and credit of the US government", and specifically its ability to project power in order to harass people failing to pay its taxes. Looking out into the world, I'm seeing a negative first derivative on that, and possibly a negative second derivative too. But that is still a cut above the nothing standing behind cryptocurrency. At the present time, based on its behavior, cryptocurrency is a derivative of the US dollar and is dependent on it and the prior low interest rates it had, not a separate entity with its own trust base.

Entertainment has inherent value in that humans for all of known history and prehistory have engaged in entertainment and expended energy (hence money, whether they knew it or not) to acquire it.

Money has no inherent value other than that which you can buy with it, and so far the biggest value of bitcoin is in being able to buy USD, or other fiat.

Then you would hold a weird power over the worlds largest economy? It’s the official medium of exchange. The government could print more money, but you would be able to flood the market at any time, essentially being a second federal reserve. Everyone would depend on you for loans to be able to pay their taxes. Likely the US government would need to deprecate the dollar and move to a new currency, which would have incredible economic shocks. Doesn’t sound at all like owning all the bitcoin.

I get your point, but they are really not the same.
Ryan Calo is a law and information science professor at the University of Washington and also studies robotics. He says he's long been concerned about the increasing militarization of police forces, but that police units across the country might be attracted to utilizing robots because "it permits officers to incapacitate a dangerous individual without putting themselves in harm's way."

Robots could also keep suspects safe too, Calo points out. When officers use lethal force at their own discretion, often the justification is that the officer felt unsafe and perceived a threat. But he notes, "you send robots into a situation and there just isn't any reason to use lethal force because no one is actually endangered."

Case closed. Incapacitation should be the only usecase in a situation that removes all endangerment to officers and bystanders.

This article is extremely biased drivel.

"72% voted yes (of which some were bots)". Guess what, some of the other 28% were also bots.

The entire article is like this - extremely one sided, just cover any possible argument that Musk is bad, color him in the worst shades, see what sticks.

Ignore the fact that many of the bans have been arbitrary and politically motivated, ignore the fact that there has been no outages despite the massive cuts, ignore the fact that there are already feature improvements, ignore the fact that he slashed costs, ignore the fact that usage is at an all time high.

Instead, Musk bad, Musk unstable, tech-bros are racist, non-inclusive and transphobic, CEOs are bad and greedy, etc.

But at the end of the day, the results will speak for themselves. Nobody will care what this guy thinks is the proper way to run a company - if Twitter is successful, every bloated tech company will try the same.
I've been using emacs for many years but honestly I can't recommend it for new users.

Ignore all the features and look at the speed. It's slow, especially when using all those nice features. Big buffers are laggy. LSP in particular is slow.

Honestly it's bad enough that I think I'm gonna start looking into neovim. I'll miss the macro support but it's getting harder and harder to excuse the overall slowness.
yep, exact same feeling here. I had several years as a "data scientist" and it was a an almost totally bullshit job. the org bought into the hype and hired a cohort of us straight out of university, but then couldn't find anything data-science-y for us to actually do. what I actually ended up doing 95% of the time was taping together dodgy excel-based workflows using python scripts. it gave me a visceral appreciation for Conway's Law. the other 5% was when I got to do some genuinely interesting mathematical work, but that wasn't "data science" either, it was more like operations research. I lived for that stuff, but there wasn't enough of it.

so I jumped ship and became a software engineer. better pay and more interesting problems.

Tailwind isn't intended to be a CSS replacement (like you stated in the article).

It serves well, even in large code-bases, when you aren't doing bespoke transforms and object selection.

I've built large UIs using it and its magic. For the most part what you want is consistent spacing and reasonable defaults; Tailwind nails this.
