> called Project Bergamot. The ultimate goal of this consortium was to build a set of neural machine translation tools that would enable Mozilla to develop a website translation add-on that operates locally, i.e. the engines, language models and in-page translation algorithms would need to reside and be executed entirely in the user’s computer, so none of the data would be sent to the cloud, making it entirely private.

> In addition to that, two novel features needed to be introduced. The first was translation of forms, to allow users to input text in their own language that is dynamically translated on-the-fly to the page’s language. The second feature was quality estimation of the translations where low confidence translations should be automatically highlighted on the page, in order to notify the user of potential errors.

These were the top tokens they held in order of how they marked them on their balance sheet:

FTT $5.9B

SRM $5.4B

SOL $2.2B

MAPS $865M

>May I point you to a chart showing the price of Solana (SBF's preferred token)? Down 80% in four months is a pretty sudden drop in value.

FTT, SRM, and MAPS are the garbage tokens they claimed were worth more than they actually were. They each had major drawdowns more than 4 months ago. SOL even had a 60% drawdown by March. None of this was sudden. My point is they knew they were in trouble long before any of the solvency/liquidity issues.

It's thought that their trouble started in May during the Luna/Terra collapse. Alameda's loans were pulled when 3AC blew up. That's when they minted more FTT. SRM also had similar supply increases out of nowhere. They weren't investments as you said. They were tokens they could mint at any time to collateralize new loans.

Maybe they thought the same could be done with SOL? It is known to be highly centralized. There are also known issues with the Solana ecosystem where TVL for layer 2 tokens were double counted, making it seem more valuable.

Reminds me of some of the now dangerous toys we used to play with when we were kids.

A relative of mine had one that involved some kind of Bunsen burner, and what we would, today consider a kiddie glass blowing kit. He used to try to make ever longer, and thinner glass strings similar to this.

There was also another one that wasn't glass, but some kind of reactive plasticy chemical that you could similarly blow into spheres, or stretch into strands, and would eventually harden into a glass-like substance that looked like it was tye-died. I don't know what it was called, but I can still remember the chemical smell very well.

So many wonderful things of youth that are now forbidden for our safety.
You can have a US co and still employ yourself legally in the UK. Check out remote.com et al.
In the US it's more common for data scientist to be similar to a product analyst or a data analyst perhaps with better technical skills. In the UK data scientist is more likely to be someone who is doing applied ML work (other titles for this are ML engineer or applied data scientist).

Obviously it's not a perfectly clean separation but it's a trend, and people sometimes end up really talking past each other. You can see on r/datascience which is very US-heavy how people often recommend to beginners not to bother with advanced ML, stick to SQL, basic Python and analytics, and in the UK data science job market that's outright bad advice (it's fine advice for the UK analytics market which is a separate thing).

Never used Django, but I see lots of videos/talks on Youtube discussing the combination of Django+HTMX+Tailwind (and sometimes also Alpine.js). Looks like some of them use Tailwind classes inline, but I assume Django has a way to bind from a model, in which case you can declare global static models for standard styling, like text inputs, charts, tabs, etc. and have those accessible to views.

Data is shorter to write and gives you automatic structural equality. You really could do the same thing with a class, but if you want something exactly like Data, it's nice to have it built in.

If you want to follow the principles of capability security, then a key part of the strategy is to eliminate “ambient authority”, that is, any kind of globally accessible way of obtaining a capability.

In traditional unix-like systems, file descriptors are very close to capabilities. But the global filesystem namespace is a source of ambient authority.

There are a couple of ways to fix this issue: fine-grained per-process namespaces like Plan 9, so that the filesystem’s authority can be attenuated as necessary, so it becomes more like a capability. Or eliminate absolute pathnames from the API, so you have to use functions like openat() to get an fd relative to an existing fd.

Such policies should be defined by the company, not enforced by the language.

I'm happy people love Emacs, but it's not remotely close to the same "out of the box experience", and I think it will put people off to claim it does.

I few months ago I spent a week using Doom Emacs (based on a friend's recommendation). It took days to get used to basic functionality (cut/copy/paste/save/etc), and after a week I still couldn't get error highlighting and running tests to work in Rust.

With VSCode, I opened a Rust project and a box popped up saying "hey, want to install the rust plugin", I said yes, it installed (including installing the approriate version of rust-analyzer), and everything worked.
I think I'm going to use this as the WAF for my next site.

:) property access is a little bonkers in hyperscript

you can say

set the todo's name to "Do the laundry"

or

set the name of the todo to "Do the laundry"

or

set name.todo to "Do the laundry"

"the" is white space in the language (allowed before any expression) and helps w/ readability (according to taste)

The first form is what I would recommend in most cases.

The second form is useful when you want to either highlight the property being set or when you want to tweak how the property binds (e.g. to avoid parenthesizing)

The third form is just there because JavaScript, but it works :)

glad you are enjoying the language!

Yup. BMW made a liquid hydrogen-powered car and the result is...not good. Nothing more than publicity stunt.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AouW9_jyZck

The TL;DW is that since you can't keep it cold enough, eventually the liquid starts to convert to gas, pressure builds up in the tank, and a vent is needed to allow the hydrogen gas to escape.

Which then poses a problem, since hydrogen gas is VERY explosive, you can't keep this car in your garage. You have to keep it outside.

Then of course there's the issue of this comically large tank taking up the enter back of the car.

Thank to that, I've just learned about open movies and am very excited. I wonder how far open movies can get us in the indie scene, can it make impact similar to open software.

a space in a way a Twitter or Facebook profile just can't be

I can't speak for Twitter, but Facebook in its early days was incredibly personalizable. Not to the extent of GeoCities or MySpace, but you could do all kinds of things with your profile page. "Pieces of Flair" was my favorite: http://www.krembo99.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/200707...

Then one day, Facebook went corporate, and all of the customization stuff disappeared. I imagine a lot of small businesses ceased to exist when that happened, because people used to sell different Facebook customizations.

It seems to me that if it was easier for ordinary people to add custom CSS to their browsers, a cottage industry could be made for skinning people's social media feeds.
Not my experience at all. Proper studying takes a lot of intense work, far more than I've ever needed to put in in my post-graduation working life.
Heh, so many of these fixes boil down to "I'm converting this thing to a string and then searching the string". And, funnily, I've often stumbled on this problem with Java programmers. They'll take a nice rich type, turn it into a string and then spend a bunch of code/time turning that string back into something else.

Super wasteful when you start thinking about what all that means. Rather then having a representation that neatly fits into registers, now you have this blob of memory that has to be linearly searched to pull information from it. Just. yuck.

And why do devs do this? TBH, I really don't know. Because regexes are easier to understand? IDK.

There were some epic floods at the end of the last ice age, pretty recently in human history. I wonder how many flood myths have their origin from that. Plus sea level rose 120 meters (~400ft). Humans like to live near the coast, imagine how many villages were flooded and abandoned.

Civilization "started" pretty soon right after the last ice age - my theory is that's when it actually restarted after earlier attempts at civilization were washed away.

I've just installed it, and I'm impressed so far. I've only run it against some sample German Wikipedia articles (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_of_Xymox), but it produces surprisingly readable text.

It's not nearly as speedy as Google Translate, but I'll take that happily if it means keeping it local.

Absolutely. UI progress peaked at the old PalmOS.
Looks like I’ve got that on my machine, and I built Emacs —with-json this time. Performance is still better but it’s still stuttery.

I guess it’s related to either the json parsing happening on the main thread and/or the LSP servers using company-capf which I think is a synchronous backend?

It seems like coc.nvim, lsp bridge, kak-lsp, and other editor solution’s i’ve come across all opt to use sidecar processes that manage lsp. Perhaps Elisp isn’t the right tool for that backend processing.

It's not to defend against the local police force that smashes your door down - it's not to defend against the military that wants to predator drone your hidden compound of Q-cultists in rural Montana because they've been popping shots at National Guard convoys.

It's to give anybody a chance (albeit an infinitesimally small one, with gigantic risks their own life) to immediately and permanently remove a government representative from office.

I personally don't agree with the premise or concept, but that's probably the most likely intention.
Nice, and by the looks of it you can still do joins to what is inside the jsonb. I presume indexes are possible too (or if not just pull that data out to actual columns).
May be I am missing something but wouldn't you want to use your own app to showcase in the demo than a sample demo ? You are selling a product to create interactive product demos and in the sample demo, it shows some random app instead of your own app's demo. Don't mean to be dismissive but I think you are missing the trick by not doing this. I would have loved to see how to create interactive demo without needing to signup/login.

> If you occupy any space on the spectrum besides fully static typing, you must represent and check your types at runtime.

If the language requires you to give at so much type information that the compiler can infer all the types, I would say that language, from the compiler’s view, would have fully static typing, so it wouldn’t have to do any checks at runtime, but from the programmer’s viewpoint, it could look as if it didn’t have fully static typing.

The modern auto to deduce a type in C++ makes a small step towards that, but I think it could be taken further. The language could deduce types both in the direction “if you pass foo to a function taking an integer, it must be an integer” and “if you only pass integers to bar, bar must take integers”.

I expect it will be hard to specify a powerful algorithm for filling in the blanks that feels natural to programmers, though. If the compiler frequently complains about missing type information where the programmer doesn’t understand why it complains, the language won’t be popular.

you can't create a system with politically "liberal" rules ("let's have the government control the economy") and then say it's "conservatives" who are holding things up.

the politically conservative position would be let owners of property do what they want with it, including developing it into more housing if they want.

not saying one system is better than the other, just saying you're simply using liberal and conservative to mean good and bad.
