They want someone to put a hip and sanitized face to those people, but who is also unconventional enough to respect them.

Jesus Christ. First it was $3/month seems like a decent price that you might try if you weren’t already running an ad blocker. Then it’s there’s no price cheap enough if it’s not decent search results. Then it’s well I need to know how many people per account and then it’s I’d have to talk it over with my partners.

You can just say there’s a 0% chance you’d pay $1 a month and that you’d always have an excuse for why this option isn’t good enough for your high standards.

When I think about procedurally generated entertainment, that can be materialized on demand, I find my self thinking about the movie Strange Days.

Will the future be one of societal fragmentation where 1) nobody ever rewatches anything, they just generate more new stuff 2) nobody watches each others work ("hey watch my feed I just generated, it was awesome" followed by "yeah sure, someday") and just watches more new custom stuff generated for them which just becomes 3) everybody is watching an endless feed of new procedurally generated levels like endless runner games and 4) there is no longer any shared experience between people that they can realistically use as a foundation to communicate or interact.

OR will the future be MOSTLY the previous but with a counterculture market for vintage (and modern) "authentic experiences" some of which will be black market. And then as part of that counterculture demand, how much of the "authentic experience" content be counterfeit procedurally generated to look real. And then the act of consuming counterfeit "authentic experiences" en mass just becomes a role play archeology treasure hunting game.

Looks like that's not correct. If you open your browser console with the React developer tools extension installed, you can see that not only is the canvas built with the DOM, but it's rendered with React, too.
I wonder how much of the positive performance is just because we have not proved that some impossible case is really impossible and so we have if statements checking for a situation that mathematically cannot happen just out of caution. (note that in many cases we don't even have the theoretical tools to prove the code)

Though that makes non-memory safe code more reliable in the case of a bit flip. (this is not a serious advantage - only some bit flips can be prevented this way)

You are choosing a narrow definition of "sex" that isn't supported in current medical literature. Yale for example defines "intersex" as "describing a person whose biological sex is ambiguous" (https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/what-do-we-mean-by-se...). In 2001, a UN committee was formed to establish some guidelines on the definitions of sex and gender, and "in the study of human subjects, the term sex should be used as a classification according to the reproductive organs and functions that derive from the chromosomal complement" (https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/japplphysio...). Scientific literature is still a bit fuzzy on the issue, especially when describing atypical sex or gender-related matters in humans, and researchers sometimes prefer the term "gender" because of cultural sensitivities (ibid.).

> Intermediate gametes do not exist.

These are called ovotestis in some people with particular forms of intersex conditions. A subset of ovotestis includes gametes containing both "male" and "female" reproductive tissue.
I feel like I've mostly seen these AIs produce code on things that are mostly just copy-paste examples (login, fibonacci, primes). From a theoretical standpoint I'm only impressed if it's combining things to do achieve something that has no code example on the internet.

From a practical perspective I do think a lot of programmers are doing copy-paste in their day jobs, which means they should be reusing existing code (I would imagine there are numerous reusable customizable login forms).

---

For example I asked it this:

Can you write a javascript function that takes a callback and returns the value of that callback, but returns a cached value if that function has been called less than 5 seconds ago?

And it produces code that looks right but doesn't work (doesn't handle arguments, failing its own example implementation). However, upon reminding it to support arguments it does work. I guess this is actually potentially useful.
I pulled the above from the Unicode Consoritum's specs.
Very little. The devices & OS are otherwise better-enough than the competition (in the case of iOS, the sole competitor, which goes a long way to explaining why the market sucks so bad) that I'd still be buying them absent app store regulations, so that doesn't count, and anyway the premium's pretty low if you're comparing them to actually-comparable products and factor in resale value. I think the 30% cut (which isn't always that high, these days, for smaller players) of my purchases amounts to low-tens of dollars per year and almost all of that is from a single subscription. So, less than I spend on any one streaming service.

One possibility, although unlikely, is do you have a loop in your network. I think you mentioned multiple switches... does anything have multiple paths on the switching layer to form a loop?
This feels like pretty typical capitalist rhetoric on the surface at least.

Ignoring income - Do you go to work to make the company you work for more wealthy? Or do you go to work to enjoy what you do and make friends? Or do you go to work to learn new skills and better yourself? - In which order do you place the statements? (Yes, it's a false trichotomy.)

Unless you're the company founder or a major shareholder I would really hope making the company more wealthy is not your top priority.

I always say to my co-workers health > family > work. If they're not healthy, they're not happy and they're not able to look after family (or close friends), for family (or close friends) I'm not happy or healthy they're less likely to be a viable support network. You can be passionate, expressive, and absorbed in your work - but doing what is best for the company above all else is not what is best for humanity most of the time.

I volunteer at a church by helping out with some basic IT issues from time to time. I recently had to disable Chrome browser notifications on one of their PCs because the McAffee anti-virus notifications just wouldn't stop. I thought I had already uninstalled the actual McAffee desktop software but I guess it embedded itself into the chrome browser somehow too.

On a related note, I wish Chrome had an easy way to permanently say "don't ask again" (on a site-by-site basis) to the "Do you want to login with a google account?" popup that so many sites have nowadays.
> Problem is who gets to decide what is best for the company?

People above your pay grade. What is best for the company for your purposes will be made clear to you by your manager or their superiors. Your job is to not question or criticize but to carry out. Be wary of calls for feedback (e.g., eNPS); every Hundred Flowers Campaign can be expected to soon be followed by an Anti-Rightist Campaign, i.e., the feedback solicited will likely be used to identify and eliminate potential troublemakers rather than effect actual change.

> Cynically, this narrative was possibly promoted by the USG/Taiwan-lobby to put lipstick on what has always been a naked display of power politics.

I also suspect this narrative is at the very least supported if not conceived by Taiwan as propaganda. But we don't need to be cynical. What this narrative does is establish in the minds of Americans a shared interest in Taiwan and, arguably, even a shared identity. That's not intrinsically bad, malicious, nor even disingenuous on the part of the Taiwanese. Especially for a country as large and resource rich (in every meaning of the term) as the United States, all overseas interests and identities are built principally on fictions; some built very deliberately, but many which grew organically. IMO, the high technology dependency narrative fits comfortably between pure ideology (democratic solidarity!) and pure real politick, e.g. oil. Unlike the case with oil interests, the narrative speaks to a coevolution of our industrial and economic bases on equal terms in tandem with political ideology, and thus posits a shared future. And given how quickly and easily the narrative has spread, it has a strong organic character to it--even if Taiwanese political strategists planted the seeds, the soil was more than accommodating.

Such a crafted narrative to me seems more like an invitation than manipulation. (Either way, admittedly such characterizations are dependent on one's chosen perspective.) Nonetheless, it should be recognized for what it is; taken literally it leads to erroneous conclusions. If the U.S. aggressively defends Taiwan in an invasion attempt, it won't be because of TSMC and fears of a chip shortage; it'll be because the American public has become invested in the idea of a free and democratic Taiwan, and willing to believe and accept that the US's long-term self-interests are furthered by putting itself and its citizens in the way of considerable, even existential harm. The story of TSMC would just be one of many--albeit an important one--along the road which brought the nation to that state of mind.
PostScript is such a beautiful language! I used to study the PostScript reference manual for hours at a time, in awe of its elegance and perfection:

https://www.adobe.com/jp/print/postscript/pdfs/PLRM.pdf

How interesting a web would be with embeddable PostScript figures! Yes it's Turing-complete and all, and yes that's no problem: Interpret these figures with a timeout, make the interpretation interruptible, use a sandbox or different threads for rendering etc. HTML+CSS+user interaction is Turing complete as well, and we can still browse the web despite this.

Thank you a lot for PostScript!

I take it the opposite: C programmers out of abundance of caution of putting in bounds checks for code that will never be called with out of bound data. As such rust is eliminating code that is being manually written. If you don't write the bounds check in C, and rust for the equivalent determines that the bounds check isn't needed the code should be the same (to the assembly level). However if you write a bounds check in C the optimizer might not eliminate it.
So this is why I can't read in my dreams...

There is no mechanism in existence to collectively decide anything. It's why things suck in general.
The article (from an IT consultancy, not really a theory) does not engage knowledge from an implicit/explicit axis. it is just a wandering talk around some other hazy active/passive axis. is it active as in "causing change”, or just persistent (=not fading) ?

The other three seem indeed closely related to implicit knowledge.

"Programming as Theory Building" argues that tacit Knowledge always precedes the activity of coding (in both importance and time) [0]. So, this theory is pointing to how fundamental "personal tacit knowledge" is to knowledge work (like coding)

"Conceptual integrity" describes the idea of "resonant minds" [1]. How do resonant minds communicate their knowledge so easily and fluently? is it because they share an implicit mental space where they can easily "get it" ? So this theory is maybe (implicitly ?) pointing to how much efficient "collective tacit knowledge" is (in small teams)

Nonaka's Theory (cited in this thread) is more ambitious as it describes a general process by which knowledge grows though interaction in organizations [2] : a continuous dialogue between tacit and explicit knowledge.

[0] a programmer’s main activity isn’t coding, it’s creating a theory of the problem at hand and its solution. This theory is implicit knowledge.

[1] Conceptual integrity in turn dictates that the design must proceed from one mind, or from a very small number of agreeing resonant mind

[2] Dynamic Theory of Organizational Knowledge Creation

> I think a distinction can be made in that you never really need to use unsafe operations in python or Java.

You can't write any code at all in Python or Java without relying on unsafe operations. Both of them have their runtimes written in C/C++.

So based off of this unusual line of reasoning, Rust is strictly more memory safe than either of those as it's at least possible to have a Rust program without any unsafe code. That program will be of questionable value, sure, but it can at least exist at all whereas it can't for Python or Java.
Thanks for agreeing it's therapeutic. Rent free. I won.
In case of this particular interaction its just easy to notice because you have direct view of pen position and what it is drawing so any latency means the pen is dragging but there is nothing under it.

It's different for where you don't have same senses for both. "Pressing" a key is feeling + sound but reaction is change in image, you don't see keyboard and screen at same time so it feels more tolerable.

The thing is that many services are now requiring TOTP in places where I don't want it, since I was already using a strong/unique password, and the TOTP requirement is effectively just to protect the service from having to deal with users who get their passwords stolen. If you're going to make me use TOTP where I don't want it, I'm going to automate its input.

In the absence of regulation I see no reason to believe that metal is stainless steel, that glass is unadulterated, or that iron doesn’t have toxic metals mixed in.
