Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a type of fuel that is ostensibly sustainable (however you define it), but fulfills all the requirements in the Jet A-1 specification. The idea being that they are completely interchangeable.

So it's just a marketing trick. They could just as well market it as "runs on standard jet fuel available at any airport worldwide". Ultimately it's up to the customer to decide what fuel they use.

Perhaps they are trying to attract investment from people who put wishful thinking (sustainable AND supersonic) ahead of common engineering sense.

I have done some benchmark recently of Python 3.11, and pure Python code was even beating a Python-wrapped C++ implementation of the same data structure. While it's not an entirely apples-to-apples comparison (the reason to use C++ was to enable running without the global interpreter lock), it is still very impressive.
Tidal turbines are a good contender. The tides are constant.
Yeah, I’ve wanted this for a long time. I’m going to try but can’t promise anything.
What do you typically use perl for? I thought it was most commonly used for scripting and running cgi scripts. I find bash to be much more readable and tend to use it or python for most of my scripts
They specifically try to steer clear of video content. It's less accessible, worse for people scanning for information, worse for people on slow connections or mobile data connections, and can become outdated whilst also being much harder to update.
This never really made any sense to me. If I build a PC with Windows installed on a read-only flash drive, can I advertise it as running 100% free software?
Musk then later goes on to imply he might make a bid for Substack. I get the feeling he didn't even know Revue existed, especially as they stopped charging users after Twitter acquired in Jan 2021, so they would not have appeared as a line item on any spreadsheet he would've looked at.

In my understanding, it's not that it's illegal to hire a person as a contractor, it's just that it can be re-qualified by a judge as an employee, if some working conditions are met.

For example in France, which is known for its labor code that protects employees much better than other countries, here are some conditions that can lead to this:
- Proven relationship of subordination
- The contractor is only working for your company
- Poorly written contract (specifically, obligation of means vs obligation of results)

It's important to note that this would not be enough, since a DDoS also impacts carrier infrastructure.

The company I work for actually contemplated creating such a service (strictly for testing purposes, which is our business), and one of the major problems was that we would actually need to have contracts with all ISPs and transit providers that the traffic would pass through, even if we could make sure that the destination was owned by whoever was paying for the test.
Sounds like healthy free speech to me, Mr Businessman! What's the real problem?
The LLVM project started in 2000, and the first release was 2003.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LLVM#History

The first release of GCC was 1987:

https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/History

That's a 13 year gap, 16 if you count first release rather than the start of work.

That is not, to quote you, "literally decades". It is significantly less than 2 decades.

Secondly, there was lots of language development between 1987 and 2000 -- for convenience, we can say the 1990s.

That is the era when Python ('95), Ruby ('95), Java ('96) and Javascript ('96) and many others first appeared. Perl is contemporaneous with GCC.

It is not true to say that GCC stifled development. What is true is that this is the era when a lot of interpreted and VM/bytecode/runtime-based languages originated, including both the JVM and .NET CLR.

The focus of FOSS language development was arguably elsewhere, maybe _because_ GCC evolved to be a serious competent professional tool in that timeframe.

Additionally, there was a lot of R&D in compiled languages in that decade or so, including Delphi, VB6, the first native C++ compiler from Zorland, and so on.

It took time for FOSS code to catch up and surpass proprietary compilers, yes, but with one good compiler, there was less pressure to do so, and so people worked on scripting languages instead.

Isn't Musk, or any other individual, allowed to change his mind? Many comments here seem to imply that a tweet sets your behavior in stone and any subsequent deviation is hypocrisy.

He even changed Twitter's policy and specified that it's ok to share the information of where a person was, just not track their movements live. You can argue in favor or against the policy, but we expect people to change opinion because of experience.

I have met very competent people that are a bit arrogant, and personally (while I recognize it is not ideal) I think I can deal with that. What I find more difficult is to deal with incompetent people who, on top of it, are arrogant.

If you are going to be arrogant you better be sure you are indeed a rock star :) Not that I recommend it.

> It would be an implementation detail, why would the ISA spec need to cover it?

Someone asking this in a thread about MIPS is somewhat amusing.

Back in The Day (1986) the MIPS I architecture had a few "implementation details" in its ISA, like branch delay slots (even if you take a jump opcode, the next opcode in the instruction stream after that jump is still executed) and load delay slots (the data from a load opcode isn't immediately available, and this delay is software-visible) and integer multiplication and division opcodes that not only had architectural delay slots, executing in parallel with the instructions after the multiplication or divide opcode, but stored their results in special HI and LO registers not used for any other purpose.

The underlying goal was to make a chip with a heavy focus on pipelining.
But they only tested on mice so

is that a joke? or are you really under the impression that most languages use subsets of the Latin alphabet? even English uses letters that aren't in ASCII, much less literally every other one.
I mean using our sun as a gravitational lens. There's a schematic at https://www.planetary.org/space-images/solar-gravity-lens-te...

One big problem (besides getting out there - hehe) is that you are looking in one very particular direction and need to move big distances (at a distance of ~500 au from the sun) to look elsewhere. I guess you could wait until the planet you are aiming at does another orbit around its star and flies through your point of focus again.

PS Voyager launched in 1971 and is now at 158 au! These distances are truly vast. 1 light year is 63241 au.
Was the account tracking a plane or a car?
I concur.

Having worked remote across countries for a year now, the simplest solution was to contract and invoice. This makes the interface to your employer a lot simpler, but you have to learn your country's tax system, do basic accounting for your company. When you're used to having your employer's salary department handle this, it can be a little daunting at first. Ultimately, becoming a small business owner may benefit you in the long run, or you may realize that the extra book-keeping is not worth the hassle.
I come across your path every once in a while, and I appreciate how you talk about your work.

Honesty and openness is really hard to come by when you need it the most. When you're in a position to share, you start to understand why: it's all downsides.

It's funny because you express exactly what the author said:

> As Abeba Birhane and Deb Raji documented recently, the responses of members of the Generative AI communities to criticism are, to put it mildly, less than generous.

Your view is as simplistic as you make his to be.

When you are unable to take the author's point of view, and read between the lines, and take things into context - then you do exactly what the author is worried about : you emulate AI, and lose your human nature.

When the author talks about "nihilism" I think he refers to the dangers that Ian McGilchrist has been talking about at lenghts, in "The Divided Brain". Very roughly, that we are dangerously going out of balance, over-using the left-hemisphere's view on reality, as a collection of "things".

Generative AI amplifies exactly all the issues Gilchrist has been talking in his books and numerous interviews you can find on YouTube. AI produces content that has no purpose, no meaning.

It IS nihilist if you think about it in the sense that it will soon feed on its own output, and therefore simply produce more and more extremist / "highlly specific" content. Again, the exact kind of issues Gilchrist has talked about : a view of the world as a collection of "things", and looking at things without sufficient context.

Art has always been something that engages the right hemisphere, and these more unconscious parts of us. For example, music affects us in way words can't. But that content is produced by humans for other humans to resonate with.

The real delusion here, is when you elevate AI's output as something equal or someday "equal or even better" to what humans can do, completely forgetting that AI would produce ZERO interesting results if it were not for the input. How is that not obvious at all?

THe author also has every right to call the attention on how, just like with Bezos and Elon and Bill Gates, etc. it is the richest people, with a certain kind of a view on the world, that pulls the strings. It IS really dangerous and concerning that software engineers tell the world how to see the world, since they already themselves have a great propensity to reduce the world to a collection of "things" that can be exploited... eg. Zuckerberg and all the Facebook shenanigans.

AI has some real and useful applications in helping code generation and whatnot, but it also has a ton of destructive potential unless people really see it for what it is and your initial reaction is not helping.
> That just sounds like mandatory busywork that may or may not prevent poor programming practices. I'd rather pick a framework for productivity.

Mandatory busywork implies stuff with no real purpose. I specifically pointed out the purpose. You may not agree with the cost/benefit involved in doing it, but that's a preference and doesn't automatically make someone else's way of working busywork. And personally I find it increases productivity by eliminating a whole range of security concerns.

> Trivial for large corporations with money to burn, maybe. A huge time-waster for my startup.

This largely depends upon if you accept that the work itself is of benefit. If you believe it's just busywork, then whilst my own opinion differs, your conclusion is reasonable for your situation.

> Blazor is cool, but the bundle sizes are still too large right now, and it doesn't have the ecosystem of web components that JavaScript does.

You're right on the sizes and the ecosystem (though that is not Blazor-specific and is something no non-JS client-side tech will ever be able to compete with).

I do ASP.NET and Blazor (alongside Node, Go, Python, Rails etc) and TBH whilst personally I see great value in Blazor it feels like that's mostly for back-office or enterprise applications where you get the incredible productivity (that much is true) and don't need to worry about the sizes or, depending on how you implement it as this is optional, the need for a persistent web-socket connection.
For those the service used for searching/listing the servers is being taken down. If you know the ip address of a server you can still play.
It renders completely fine on my Linux machine as well as my Windows one, and is fine on Android as well.

I'm not sure what your particular issue is but maybe make a bug report?
Changing Javascript is explicitly out of scope for Typescript.

I was curious how other languages did discriminators in a way that makes Typescript's feel alien. Just having different functions doesn't really tackle that.

Wow. I did not expect this. I apologize for my unresearched opinion.
I've heard interviews with engineers looking back where some say it was 2/3 and some say 1/2.

Then again, there are plenty of quotes from NASA engineers describing the 1/10,000 per flight expected fatalities of shuttle as being ridiculously pessimistic, so clearly this is hard to estimate.
Yes. If we ever need an extremely expensive isotropic point source of high-flux fast neutrons to do anything useful, then this is a good start. Currently, the only hopeful use is for simulating nuclear weapons.
Yep. No idea why. Cost cutting, even if costs are minimal? Open source them ffs if you're not going to sell them.
I think this thread isn't discussing the article, but the borderline-flamebait comment by p-e-w that "IDNs should have never happened".

Low gravity instakill is awesome.
Chain of effect - using words to call for someone's beheading is surely making them complicit in the physical harm that follows, particularly if the person is a figurehead that can feasibly assume their requests will be followed out.

Thus we grant that there's at least one case where speech could be considered violence, can we not consider others that might be involved in causal chains of physical harm?

The general air of racist rhetoric in the usa meant that black people were effectively dehumanized which meant that calls for lynching led to actual lynchings. With this context I feel it's reasonable to call the use of a racial slur, "violence". I should hope it's obvious I don't believe it's as harmful a form of violence as physically harming someone. We use the word violence to describe many remarkably different in nature things, so I don't think we risk devaluing the word.

I think it’s likely they were confused also by the physical connector - DMX can and often does use the same 5 pin connector as MIDI, if I’m not mistaken.
Not particularly; I think you can call almost anything a game if you like. But I don't think it's especially a game, nor a natural law.

I don't see why anyone would characterise some people choosing to spend and lose their money as "cheating".
I don't think it is specific to Gen Z - it is common for any young people to seek novelty for the sake of novelty (and have bias against anything old). To some extent it is an implementation of explore-exploit strategy - one can try many different things when young and then settle on best seen things becoming older.

The problem is that we cannot have usable GUI because GUI designers just cannot stop trying new things inflicting on everyone constant churn.
Sorry, but that wasn't his statement. It's quite clear that he states that what is presented as new technology is completely made up nonsense. He may be right, but he needs to show what in the article is completely made up nonsense so that we know if he is.

No, it's a sensible setup. It decouples operational problems at the receiver from the donor's tax and accounting.

Suppose you want to donate a largish sum to someone who's building and running some schools in Kenya. If you have one of those personal charities you can donate a lump sum to your own buffer charity whenever it suits you and taxwise that's all. The deed is done. The buffer can forward the money in later years, according to the progress of the Kenyan project.

The buffer is bound by charity rules and more or less has to forward the money somewhere charitable eventually. But if a particular project breaks down (which happens) it can stop sending money there, without any tax or accounting problems for the initial donor.
Completely agree. This was my first practical kit. I bought one recently from John Lewis in the UK and they are very under-rated. A few $ worth of components but most importantly, a neat paper booklet with a tonne of example circuits including how to wire them on the spring posts.

I would always recommend this as a start for young children before then going back to some theory and "why did this circuit behave this way"

>I'm overlooking something obvious and reasonable

You are missing the point entirely. Boom builds planes, they don't operate them and they do not build the engines (Kratos does). Their capacity to make the plane use "clean" jet fuel is almost zero. The people who manufacture the engines and operate the planes are the ones who need to put in the effort and pay the costs, it is not Boom who has to care.

This is a pure PR move. They get some nice comments, but their effort to make this true is almost zero. They aren't saying the plane will not work with regular fuels, it definitely will. This is not a bad idea, simply because it basically isn't an idea at all.
The thing he actually doesn't want everyone to realise is that he is a dumbass billionaire who goes on costly trips all the time.

They still are sometimes - I was fiddling around with Steam and in my "Library" I accidentally clicked a dropdown which displayed "GAMES" and "TOOLS" as options - clicking "TOOLS" filtered on a bunch of interesting SDKs and Dedicated Servers (DayZ, Arma 3, Half-Life, Just Cause 2, and such - loads of which I don't even own or play). It's not perfect and it's far from comprehensive, but there are some games which offer this still

There would have to be a lot of conspirators involved, that first decided to plant child pornography on this guy's encrypted hard disks and his laptop, and then somehow coerced him into defending himself with the proclamation that it's a 'victimless crime'.

Given how unlikely this is, it's almost certainly the case that he is a pedophile who has trafficked in child pornography with other pedophiles. I don't know about you, but my sympathy level for such people is approximately zero.
On top of that nobody needs it. The issue is that supersonic jets are really anachronistic, it's the most wasteful way of flying and it doesn't even buy you much time for most distances because you have to fly subsonic over land.
Up to this point being firmly in the camp that Moore's law is not dead - this is first data point that convincing enough for me to reconsider my stance. The problem is not that SRAM is important or not. SRAM cell is basically one of the simplest circuit actually doing something useful, where most things important for actual design are in play (not only transistors size, but also its parameters, parastics, manufacturability etc). Also since it is so simple and important circuit it is hard to argue it was not optimized to the moon and beyond. If this do not scale - girl we are in trouble.

) Although signs of slow down were plenty beforehand if you squint your eyes it was possible to attribute it to Intel dropping ball and rest of industry catching up its 1.5 generation lead. (Industry converging back to long term trend).
This may be the one of the few true benefits of Web3/decentralization. As long as people see value in the network, it will stay online. Even if it's just a few people.
Sure they have an incentive to innovate, namely taking market share from their competitors.

The reason why they want a big pot of gold is that developing a new competitive jet engine is frighteningly expensive. The established vendors, with decades of in-house knowhow, will spend a decade and billions of dollars on a new from scratch engine. It's just not a game where a VC-funded startup with a very limited runway can expect to be successful.

But sure, I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Not holding my breath waiting though.
