I hope it also depends on a reasonable expectation of oversight and access controls when you're working in high-risk fields. Finance engineers should probably be expected to be familiar with laws concerning what they do.
I might have agreed with you back when people generally agreed what the term referred to. Now that it means whatever people want, I think it's a shitty heuristic to follow.

When do you think we'll start seeing the politicians who received SBF's illegal campaign finance contributions insisting on returning them to FTX customers so as to be above suspicion or reproach?
Not trying to be glib but the single most important thing is to make the right game.

1. Before you start the project, do some research and ask yourself what is unique about your game? Why would someone play it instead of the leading competitor? Don't settle for an idea that doesn't have plausible answers.

2. Build the game really well. REALLY WELL. Amazing artwork, great style, a visual feast. Fun, snappy gameplay. Depth. I'm talking hours of engrossing gameplay. Solid, performant, virtually bug free.

3. Along the way build moments into the game that really stand out, that would look hot in a gif, that would pique someone's interest if they heard about it.

--- most people get it wrong before this point ---

4. OK now you're ready to start marketing to people. It's easy, just tell them about your game. How? Break the game along different dimensions. The story. The game systems. The emotions players will experience. etc. For each of these, break them into smaller blurbs. You now have dozens of things to share, start recording gifs/video/screenshots to support what you've written. Now start posting to social media. If someone finds your Twitter profile and scrolls through, they should come away understanding what your game is and why they want it.

5. Next go to Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, websites, etc. and find the top accounts that cover / discuss games like yours. Follow them. Interact with their posts/communities. Especially keep an eye out for opportunities to share your work with them.

6. Advanced: come up with some marketing moments. E.g. announcing your game with a launch trailer, revealing the release date, releasing a demo, your launch day, etc. Put these all on a calendar. For each date, work backwards ~2 months. Coordinate social media posting, email with press/influencers using those dates.

I apologize if this sounds flippant, but it's really so so so hard to get steps 1-3 right. People delude themselves into thinking they're on the right track simply because making games is incredibly, super hard. It's outrageous how much work it takes to make something at all. But no one cares about that. Another reason I think people fail, myself included, is we tend to make very safe, hackneyed games. How many of us are guilty of making a game set in a vaguely DND/Tolkien world? That's tired. I know someone still manages to beat the odds every year, that's survivorship bias in action. Play with a stacked deck, make something truly original.
Same in France. People are having trouble finding doctors, dentists, etc. that can squeeze them in in their schedule.
> Even with something that could kill you within 2 weeks, there were a lot of denialism

Or healthy skepticism, which seems to have been borne out. The numbers were not nearly as dire as we were told they would be, and the government intervention seems to have caused more trouble than it solved.

> Something that could kill you in 50 years?

For those of us who have been hearing this sort of dire warning our whole life, it does get a bit tiring.

New York was supposed to have been under water by now, humans we're supposed to have died by the billions from overpopulation, etc...

Well, yes. It depends on what your requirements are. For some people ~$80K/year without benefits isn't what they're looking for to coast through life.

> We wouldn't have to fight those wars for resources.

You mean wars for oil? Fusion would not solve that, that wars were not about energy per se but about control and domination, keeping USD as world reserve currency and US as world hegemon. Look at Taiwan and chips situation, no oil there, there will be always some "oil" out there that you will want to control instead of giving that control to your rivals. It's game theory 101.
Well, governments need the power right now. Letting software go unregulated didn't work, full-stop.
Facebook has spent an immense amount of effort on being installed-by-default on most platforms. They also have massive user retention problems right now, with competiting platforms taking app a lot of market share from basically all of their owned platforms, not to mention their image issues. I'm willing to bet that going for a scarcity tactic with their own appstore would be major mistake.

Not to mention that it's not much use for most social media platforms, assuming this doesn't allow them to bypass privacy restrictions. The only apps eho would immediately benefit from such a move would be the ones handling payments.
-- we have an above the law but not above the law mentality here - can get "help from the government" etc - get away with a lot - as long as you act within the general interest of the country - otherwise you "get caught" - go to jail - its weird but it works --

Whorfianism is certainly oversold, but it's hard to come down completely against it in the face of evidence from color identification.

If it weren't that people make these claims about Pirahã all the time, "it's slightly slower to compare counts of things if you don't have basic numerals for them" is exactly the sort of thing at about the right level of automaticity to sound plausible.
...aaaand? Were you going to compare him to the other two?
The sim basically doesn’t matter. The imei identifies the phone to the network, the sim identifies the subscriber. So the network sees phone x unknown subscriber prepaid carrier. Airplane mode does not prevent the phone system from triangulating your phone, or from turning the baseband on remotely even when the phone is “off”.

The carrier definitely knows where you live if you take your phone to your house at night, even if it is off. The only way to prevent that is to put it in a faraday pouch at your “airplane mode” checkpoint.

Why do you think basically zero phones have trivially removable/changeable batteries? Any phone that clams to be security first and doesn’t at least have a switch (an actual switch) that disconnects the battery altogether is a joke.
Why is "making an app that calls iOS APIs" an use of Apple's IP that they should be compensated for?

That's like saying people shouldn't be allowed to make unofficial accesories for physical products without paying the company because the original designs for the product itself are patented.

You are right about the year KYC came into effect, so good job!!

But that makes my point. As of 2002 Madoff had to have clear records of f who he redeemed money to.

When the bankruptcy trustee went after people who redeemed they only went back a few years and were able to use those KYC docs they had since 2002 to get the money back.
> Always use UTC everywhere in infra

Can Amazon do this? They use UTC and your local browser’s time seemingly randomly depending on AWS service, and it drives me nuts. They usually (not always) put the timezone next to it, but why can’t they just have a mandate that it either is or is not UTC?! (The worst one is that the Lambda console is UTC but cloudwatch isn’t, so you think you haven’t received a request in hours but then you did)
And plainly, if we all needed to be nuclear physicists to talk and think about this, there would be no comments and no articles. Your comment also does not advance the conversation.

So you’re positing that roughly 60% of the incremental population growth was lost to British rule? Didn’t happen. Just as shark migration patterns were not changed by slavery. Nor any of the other absurdities promulgated by the media and politicians today.

After the Chapter 11 filing, all assets of FTX were seized from SBF and his former executive team was let go. John Ray, the interim CEO, the one who testified in front of Congress today, and his team are the likely source of the release.
It is simple. It's just not easy.

I think the original comment was pointing out that our discussion of diet and nutrition is overly complicated. Not that it's easy to make the right choices, but that it is easy knowing what those right choices are.

I hear you on how difficult it is though. People who are able to manage it confuse the simplicity of knowing what to do and the difficulty of actually achieving it.

3.15 MJ is equivalent to 1.5 lb TNT, so it was quite a bang in their target chamber. Just for comparison, it's also just short of one kWh, so it would run an electric car for about three-four miles.

It's bold. I'm sure if one of those time bombs went off, the call might not be to ask for help, but to impolitely complain.
I'm pretty sure optimal layout in the general case is NP-hard, even if you have a perfect predictor for future access patterns.

It's been a while since I've read the Garbage Collection Handbook, but it cites several studies showing some workloads are better served by depth-first traversal for compacting GC and other workloads are better served by breadth-first traversal. In general, you want to place an object near the field references it frequently de-references.

The problem with depth-first traversal is that an object ends up near its first child and its first grand-child and its first great-grandchild. The problem with breadth-first traversal is that objects reached early wind up near their children (good), but there's no space to put the grandchildren near the children (bad). You might have a sampling profiler show you which field accesses are causing pipeline stalls, and when traversing the object graph, use a double-ended queue for the grey list. Push the frequently stalling references at the front of the queue and push all of the others to the rear of the queue. Though, you'd need to keep long enough history to avoid alternating between good layouts and poor layouts every-other GC compaction.
There is no HW acceleration for AMD iGPU however. Neither VLC/mpv nor Chrome/Chromium/Firefox can use HW acceleration on Linux with AMD iGPU.
Since it's a corporate laptop I can't do much. For a personal one Intel and their iGPU is the only combination capable of HW accelerated video playback.
It's the kind of lawyer who will get you the best outcome when you know you'll be convicted of some very bad things.
> Your inference that rich people using private planes means climate change is overblown is a non-sequitur.

Not "rich people," people who are going to climate conferences whose primary purpose is to figure out how to lower carbon emissions and meet C02 goals. It's a perfectly logical conclusion.

> Secondly, you are creating a strawman argument. Show me the scientist who is saying what we need to do is to panic?

Scientists do not (precisely how I know the fervor is a lie), but there's plenty of "crisis" and "red alert" language which lead to people panicking (see: idiots blocking traffic or gluing their hands to art) [1].

> Third, you make claims about people's motivations being tied to lacking spiritual grounding.

Yes.

> One thing I noticed in France on the other hand is the importance of the diploma. In Sweden it has very little value, whereas in France it sometimes shapes your whole career. And the good students coming from a good school directly get high paying jobs in big comfortable companies so that does limit the incentive to risk it all in a startup instead.

That's interesting. A lot of the insanely good engineers I've worked with (and work with) either don't have diplomas or didn't even finish high school. Perhaps France is missing on this a lot by being pretty discriminatory when hiring.

Also, one thing I'm thinking about now, I think a lot of people in the US are on stimulants (e.g. adderall) whereas I doubt this is really a thing in France.
Right. Never be the top top guy. Don't be the fastest car on the road. And shut the f up Friday [0]. I think he thought he could do a media blitz but stealing a bunch of other people's money for ones gambling addiction is generally frowned upon.

Feels a bit like Bertrand Russel and Alfred North Whitehead's Principia Mathematica.

They spend some 350 pages proving 1 + 1 = 2 from very primitive principles, including the existence of numbers themselves. Turns out, numbers, even One, are non-primitive constructs.

Great, but that has nothing to do with copycats. A copycat is a product that copies the original and pretends it is the original.

You can't release software under an open source model and complain about "copycats" since that's literally what you gave permission for. As long as the licenses are followed, people have the right to do whatever they want with the code.

RSS would (hypothetically) just be the feed protocol for posts. Replies would be handled out of band, potentially using mechanisms that already exist.¹

Heck, replies could be published using RSS too, with a reference to the original so client apps could thread them. In that scenario there'd be an opportunity for third parties to associate replies with posts for user who want hear from users they don't follow.

On this note I am curious if political organisations will be required to give back the donations he made. It seems the right thing if they were stolen funds. But being politicians I'm curious if it will be rules for thee and not for me.
Oh, sure, ARM just happened to decide to sell 51% of their Chinese subsidiary. I assume they really needed the money, and sold 51% instead of 49% because that 2% was a chunk of change they really needed.
It definitely moved the needle as you can see from the wailing and gnashing of teeth by a lot of the billionaire owned politicians, bureaucrats, institutions, and legacy media corporate "journalists".

It's funny how angrily and desperately they insist that nothing really changed and everything is a "nothing-burger", but they're gaslighting you as usual.

Speech and public opinion is still under the control of billionaires, and Musk is not likely to be particularly less greedy, self-serving, or egomaniacal as Murdoch or Soros or Bezos, but he is not in lock step with them. The enemy of my enemy is... quite possibly still my enemy, but it's beautiful to watch them fight one another. And if it can distract them from starting new wars or stealing more money and rights from people for just one minute, that's a wonderful bonus.
nit for 2.

A fantastic game doesn't have to be visually stunning to be successful. It helps of course but visuals don't make/break an otherwise fun game. What does matter however is that the visuals need to make sense and be consistent.

You can get away with "ugly" or otherwise unremarkable graphics but inconsistent or confusing visuals will interfere with gameplay and the game will suffer.

What advice would you give that’s different to that post?
If you're worried about high availability should your instance fail (which is something that's worth worrying about, though many smaller web apps will likely work perfectly fine on a single instance with good scheduled backups) you should absolutely investigate https://litestream.io - it's the missing piece of the SQLite-for-web-apps story.

> Companies should list their salary ranges! Like, regardless of the law!

Yes, definitely. It's to everybody's advantage. The assumption should be that if a company does not list its salary range and they're young that they don't know better and if they're older that you are about to get screwed.
The flipside is that it's a lottery. Steam is overflowing with new indie games every day, and many very good ones die in obscurity. You really have to get lucky and go viral

For these particular improvements, good implementations of HTTP/1.1 (and HTTP/2) already have these optimisations because HTTP versions before 3 use TCP.

With TCP, they are mostly done in the kernel and network hardware. TCP syscalls can transfer many packets worth of data per syscall, and the kernel and hardware have done segmentation offloads for TCP for many years automatically, depending on the hardware and kernel version. Over time these optimisations have been improved in the kernel, and over time newer hardware provided more capabilities for the kernel to use.

There's not much need for complex application or library support in userspace, though there are some syscall patterns that help the TCP stack more than others. The main thing is, send and receive in larger sizes to let the kernel handle buffering as well as reducing syscall count. Don't do silly things like a write() syscall for each HTTP header and then the body, for example. Buffer it up into a single write.
That's most people who are given reasonably-written instructions that seem to be written by trustworthy people.

Why not put RSS into something like Mastodon? Take the code of a project like TTRSS and merge it with Mastodon to allow people to subscribe to both activity pub and RSS feeds. They are both chronologically sorted. People could comment on RSS items which would simply turn into shares for their followers.
I'd imagine there's a huge problem in that FTX did not declare bankruptcy until the vast majority of their liquid assets had been removed by the bank run. If they had declared bankruptcy before the run, most people might have gotten out with a 50% haircut.

Instead, after the run, those left over will get nothing and those who got out will got 100%.
