That's to say, nothing aside from some words he said to promote his film, and later retracted.
This might go well with some theming based on A Fire Upon the Deep and A Deepness in the Sky, given how Vinge describes programming and automation as critical to operating spacecraft in those books.
This idea of an "infomediary"--a company that collects and aggregates information from a lot of users--has long been popular among Net gurus. AllAdvantage was supposed to finance the whole deal by selling advertisers information about its members' surfing habits. But that hasn't happened. It took in a meager $9 million in the first quarter of 2000. The prospect of "highly targeted" banner ads is still hypothetical; the information is all there, stored in AllAdvantage's data banks, but only a tiny fraction of it is currently useful to advertisers.

Pretty funny to read this two decades later, where advertising giants built on top of users' data are some of the biggest companies in the world. Although they obviously offer a service that economically scales a little better than "pay each of your users"
Some details about the insides would be useful. This is barely a marketing blurb.

Edit: the success story is also thin on details.
I think it's interesting how many people on the Mastodon thread are saying "I think it was fine for Raspberry Pi to hire an ex-cop, but they should have been more polite to the people who are angry at them for hiring an ex-cop."

I think it's essentially a disagreement about where the Overton window is. Raspberry Pi seems to think "harassing us because our new employee is an ex-cop is outside the Overton window" so they're dismissing/blocking people who are doing it. Whereas a lot of people in the Mastodon thread seem to think it's within the Overton window, so they're angry that Raspberry Pi isn't engaging with it seriously.

(Another aspect is that corporate social media accounts are held to a higher standard than randos.)
Need to work on your jokes. ;) The reason is that a significant amount of the profit is in the convenience store. Also security reasons... someone to call the police.
Lol, good point!

I just meant "this isn't related to Thinking Fast and Slow. It's just the tokenizer".

But yeah, the inner workings of the language model are so complicated as to be almost completely incomprehensible, even after years of study. Touche!
Not to say your experience isn't awful but have you actually timed this? (also Cloud vs. Server can make a huge difference - Cloud being faster even if their recent UI changes aren't all great).

Login processes can suck. Absolutely. But like you say, single sign-on means you should at max be logging in once per day if not even less.

So just for giggles I timed various things in our instance for you. I have a logged in single sign-on session already.

Opening the Jira instance to my default dashboard until I could conceivably click on the "Create" button: 3.5s

Click the "Create" button until I could start typing into the summary field (while the rest still loads): 1.1s

Now as for filling out what you need, that obviously depends on your company and they can make it a pain, agreed. If we're talking about the "someone tells you drop everything now and to work on X" I doubt it takes more than 30 seconds to fill in even one of the "wild" issue creation screens. I mean you literally have to type something like "Exec B made me work on X" into both the summary and the description field, maybe choose an issue type and select the first value of any dropdown required fields and type "a" into any required input fields.

Actual ticket creation duration shouldn't take much longer either and even if, who cares? By that time I'm already back in my IDE.
Oh sure, you're so not angry that you need to insult me for misunderstanding your ranty walls of text. My bad.

My personal bigger issue is that at least some parts of the "community" often has a very harsh left to far-left swing to it that I've run into a couple of times that reacted with explosive hatred toward me when they realized I wasn't one of them. Yes I have some right wing views, I still want to use Rust though, but that doesn't mean I should feel forced to adopt your personal brand of far-left progressiveness. I hope that will even out given time.

Google auth is simple to implement and the overwhelming majority of web users have access to a Google account. I much prefer it over having them write their own auth and I have to sign up with email.

It looks like your screenshot includes the action of voting on a post. I don’t think any explanation is required on why that can’t be done without logging in.
I'm not sure there's a way to not start learning from birth. Avoiding systems of education won't stop a child from being shaped from birth, it just means that the "system" used to do the shaping is a hodge-podge of influences and decisions.

I guess I don't see the connection between acknowledging that children begin to learn from birth and you need to be aware of that in order to educate them, as well as understanding that education affects the end result on both a mental and emotional level and the jump to it being a system that produces workers that fit in whatever the current regime needs.
I tested that out and mostly only found positive, constructive comments. I only found 2 cases of someone complaining about verbosity though. Searching "borrow checker verbose" doesn't give many results with complaints.

Can you link some examples?
I think people would have sat up and noticed if they took away the real-time aspects of the platform. On paper, there isn't much about Amiga which was real-time. Culturally though, so many programs were realtime. I still miss the instant latency. iOS, Android, MacOS etc nothing holds a candle to how it felt.

> What is the actual difference between a backup and replication?

Simplest way to think about it is that a backup must be an immutable snapshot in time. Any changes and deletions which happen after that point in time will never reflect back onto the backup.

That way, any files you accidentaly delete or corrupt (or other unwanted changes, like ransomware encrypting them for you) can be recovered by going back to the backup.

Replication is very different, you intentionally want all ongoing changes to replicate to the multiple copies for availability. But it means that unwanted changes or data corruption happily replicates to all the copies so now all of them are corrupt. That's when you reach for the most recent backup.

That's why you always need to backup and you'll usually want to replicate as well.
If you write Rust + Actix/Axum for backend, you'll never even see the borrow checker [1].

Rust is quickly growing into Golang and Java's space for web services.

My startup uses Rust in production for our web APIs, and we're really happy with it.

[1] You'll probably need to spend a few hours learning the language basics, but it's really easy at this point with the docs and best-in-class compiler error messages.
A quick summary of The Decoupling Principle:
Separate WHO you are from WHAT you do

An example is Apple's iCloud relay.
When you browse a URL, it is encrypted and sent to the first server, owned by Apple. This knows WHO you are, but not what you are browsing. The Apple server then sends your request to the second server, operated by a third party such as Fastly. This server gets to see your URL, but it only has Apple's IP address, so it knows WHAT is being browsed, but not WHO you are.

They could have used the effort that went into the 128 to beef up the VICII with a TED-like pallette and have a brilliant last C-64 computer to show.

The Commodore 65 was going to be that, kind of. It really is a shame that it never saw the light of day. At least now we have the MEGA65 for some alternate history retrocomputing.
>the local residents cannot gamble at the cities casino.

Sounds like Las Vegas. I don't mean to say that Vegas residents are prohibited from gambling; they aren't. There certainly are gamblers among them, both natives[1] and those who moved specifically there to gamble. But to the vast majority of Las Vegas residents the casinos are a) employers and b) a place to take out-of-town guests to for an inexpensive meal.

[1] By which I mean "regular people". Newcomers greatly outnumber those actually native to the city.
They trashed so many of the opportunities they had, too.
Okay, somebody posted a thread on Twitter explaining how this works...

The language model is capable of generating python scripts to solve certain text-processing tasks, and then it re-prompts itself by reading the python outputs back into the language model. Very clever!

https://twitter.com/goodside/status/1598253337400717313

Other tricks include... prompting itself to lookup wikipedia entries, and then re-prompt itself with snippets from the resulting wikipedia page. Each user prompt is inserted into a template prompt with instructions to the model about the limitations of its capabilities.

Bootcamps are more challenging to evaluate, as they have a history controversy around their graduation rates / job placement rates. Anecdotally, I just don't see a ton of bootcamp graduates on the market relative to CS degree holders. However, stats seem to indicate there were ~25K graduates in 2020. https://www.statista.com/statistics/626932/north-america-cod...

But this can be somewhat misleading, as it includes all trainings - including existing software developers reskilling.

There's tons of web applications that don't write backend logic in C or C++, but in a GC'd, possibly dynamically typed language.

From earlier in that chapter [0]:

> (1) "Social media platform" means an Internet website or application that is open to the public, allows a user to create an account, and enables users to communicate with other users for the primary purpose of posting information, comments, messages, or images. The term does not include:

>> (A) an Internet service provider as defined by Section 324.055;

>> (B) electronic mail; or

>> (C) an online service, application, or website:

>>> (i) that consists primarily of news, sports, entertainment, or other information or content that is not user generated but is preselected by the provider; and

>>> (ii) for which any chat, comments, or interactive functionality is incidental to, directly related to, or dependent on the provision of the content described by Subparagraph (i).

> (2) "User" means a person who posts, uploads, transmits, shares, or otherwise publishes or receives content through a social media platform. The term includes a person who has a social media platform account that the social media platform has disabled or locked.

It's an interesting distinction I suppose. CDE has served longer as a desktop, just not for Linux
Number 3 seems about right. My Vulcan brain thinks that something like number 1 must the answer, but my lizard brain knows that the food pellets drop when I follow number 3.

Back in the day, our CEO's neighbor mentioned that our site didn't work well on Microsoft's WebTV. WebTV appeared on our list of supported platforms.
Thinking out loud here: Generating recipes for novel, yet to be discovered dishes, sounds really exciting — like that time I added peanut butter to warm rice.

It would need a deep understanding of human brain chemistry to mix and match different flavors.

BTW, tried peanut butter rice with “le chef” and the recipe didn’t contain any liquid.
Depends on the specifics. If it's something like HBM, workloads sensitive to memory bandwidth and latency could be massively improved. If it's normal DDR5, there might not be much improvement. The limiting factor would be capacity: this hypothetical CPU will have a hard limit on the number of Electron apps and/or Chrome tabs it can simultaneously run.

Are they coming? They're already here. Have you taken a look at Apple's M1 and M2?
I tried to search for scientific authors from the 1800s and they're there.

One niche platform is Sandstorm. Because of the way it is architected, a single “grain” is started up for a single document. So fast startup and small footprint is very useful, even if it is still a web platform.

As much as I like Elixir, it wouldn’t do as well running within Sandstorm as something written in Rust.

>Before I can take Neovim seriously, I need a Neovim GUI that is exactly what gvim or MacVim provide — not something that adds features I neither want nor need nor can I easily disable.

Having used MacVim for several years and now using Neovim mostly in the terminal but sometimes VimR, I disagree that it's a mess.

I get wanting to have a common gvim ui/ux across platforms, but I think having a Mac-like or Windows-like ui/ux on those platforms mostly trumps that.

Also, the special features of VimR, like the built-in file browser and Markdown preview can easily be disabled. Using the native rendering of macOS and support for ligatures, for example, is certainly a plus IMHO.

They don't need to be, in order to preserve the peace on their platform (for whatever definition of peace).

If you start yelling about mitochondria or climate change at Disneyland, you will be unceremoniously ejected for disturbing the peace at the Magic Kingdom. On the other hand, you can yell about mitochondria or climate change to your heart's content in the local town square all you want, courtesy of the First Amendment.

I don't understand why people think that Twitter, a private company, should be more like the town square than Disneyland.

You can sue anyone for anything but company directors can more or less do anything they want. Are they winning?
The usual answer is, "Find a "technical co-founder." How do you do that? Maybe ask Google; it should find relevant blog posts, articles, etc.

The problem is worth solving, and I'm not sure Amazon has the right incentives to solve it themselves, so there might be a market, e.g. for a freemium browser plugin.
> This is true in some senses, but also, response latency isn't the only thing a web application does or is evaluated by. Many applications have, for example, background jobs, that do arbitrarily complex processing outside of the request/response cycle.

Yeah, for sure -- I deal with a web app that does complex, time-consuming analytics in data pipelines with Python, and Rust could help a lot with improving some of the complex calculations. But again, that's more using Rust as a C++ replacement rather than looking at replacing, say, the Python-Flask frontend that serves up the results of those analytics.

> Additionally, people who write web services in Rust talk about decreased memory usage, consistent memory usage, and lower CPU usage. In a cloud context, that can translate directly to revenue saved, by spending less. If that tradeoff is right for you depends on a variety of things, of course. "speed" isn't the only relevant metric that you may want to optimize for.

It'd definitely reduce costs, but yeah, be sure to get a full picture here from a business perspective. Engineers love to optimize AWS costs, but it isn't appropriate in a lot of situations. In my case, I'm paying a nontrivial 5-figure monthly AWS bill, but if my company's AWS costs went to $0/month... it wouldn't move our death date, and it wouldn't change our valuation. This is especially true if there were any loss in developer productivity/feature releases. I would gladly double my AWS bill if I could get features out even 20% faster, though that's not how it works, obviously.
It's the modwave, wavestate and the opsix.

They all share the same core hardware and physical layout and enclosure but have customised front panels.

Actually really good products, well designed, I love the opsix :)
It’s a great read!

Maybe you can combine Rust and Elixir by speeding things up with Rust NIFs.
One big advantage to developing in Rust that I have found over other languages is that you _must_ handle error-type conditions; for example, if something returns an Option or a Result you need to check that it was successful in order to extract the value.

This means that you don't accidentally forget a null check (or a catch block) and, in my experience leads to software that is a lot more robust.

Even if all it is doing is pulling from a database and munging it into JSON.

Korg also makes their digital and analog ecosystem fairly open at the lower end; analog devices are designed to be easily hackable and they facilitate sideloading of DSP applications; code that runs on this device can also be loaded onto several of their consumer models: https://www.korg.com/us/products/dj/nts_1/

This has a lot to do with why they've been eating Roland's lunch for the last several years, while that latter company keeps trying to convince buyers that completely locked down circuit simulation of classic devices at fancy prices is what the people want.

At the cheaper end of the scale, companies like Sonicware are exploiting commodity-priced microcontrollers for their 12-bit synthesis and processing capabilities. While their own offerings are not open-source, abundant resources exist for anyone interested in processing audio on crunchy chips and you can get into it for about $20 in hardware costs (years of your life not refundable; synthesizers are nerd crack).
They do, but the social media law specifies drivers license, not "photo ID".
I think future World Wars are definitely possible with a few caveats:

1. There can be nuclear combatants but the fighting is primarily on the soil of non-nuclear countries.

2. Because of #1, the war more like World War 1 than in World War 2: some sort of peace treaty that doesn't stipulate unconditional surrender. There is no regime change nor post-war occupation of nuclear powers.

3. There is an unprecedently high level of communication between the nuclear combatants as both sides try to reassure the other that they aren't going to unilaterally launch nukes (there may be nuclear brinksmanship in public though as propaganda tool. Backchannels will be all about nuclear deescalation)
we don’t need a new model for social media, we just don’t need social media.
I think tracking users without their consent is already illegal.
Politeness and receptiveness are entirely orthogonal qualities. The Rust community is indeed mostly polite. That's a good thing I think, but it can paper over a good deal of dismissiveness (expressed as politely as a Victorian men's club sneer).
Then you are easily manipulated.

If you wont confront given information with your real experience, you could easily believe in anything that other says. And covid is exactly this case. How many healthy people died from covid that you personally knew?
