Ok, since https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-022-01852-0 is hardwalled and that arxiv.org post has the same authors and almost the same title, I'm going to call it close enough and replace the URL above. Thanks!

If there's a better URL that people can openly read, we can change it again.

Enterprise is more what you're looking for, LTSC is designed for special use cases only. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-it-pro-blog/l... has some examples of why you don't want to use it except in cases.

The most likely reason is a stripped down version of periphal support, no new feature releases etc. It's more of set and forget installations rather than a daily driver.

No it's not.. you can and will easily have the same problem with SQL if you're not fetching beforehand..

I bet wordpress (or many plugins) is/are so slow exactly because of this.

ORMs will even make it easier to write more efficient queries is many cases.
At my first job out of school we didn't use an ORM and just queried with raw SQL. I had never heard of the N+1 query problem because it wasn't something we really had to worry about.

After that I joined a startup that used rails and I had quite the education in ORMs and N+1 queries. The ORM felt quite restricting and I felt a lot less confident in my code.
Oh, I see. You're right.

Thanks for the pointer.
I appreciate that argument but some codebases are heavily reliant on “magic” libraries like SQLAlchemy. The SQLAlchemy mypy plugin helps a lot. Well, at least with SQLAlchemy 1.4; dunno if 2.0 needs the plugin
You define places where only one person is allowed at a time, a camera records the entrance to the place. If someone reports being attacked at given place, and the accused student says "actually, he attacked me", then you look at the record. The person who entered the place second is the one who broke the rules. Plus, you know he is lying to you.

The problem with bullying is not just that someone can beat you up, but that if you try to complain, the bully can say "actually, he attacked me" or "no, we were just playing" or something like that, and the teacher will be like "wtf, I have no idea what actually happened, so just shake hands and be friends again, okay?" And you know you get beaten up tomorrow again. What an improvement it would be to have a place where, if you get beaten up, at least the camera will record that you were the victim.
It would provide proof of concept and troubleshooting for many technologies which Mars colony proponents seem to think already exist and they can just buy or slap together on short notice. If nobody can manage a self-sufficient biodome on Earth, there is basically no chance of it working in a much harsher and demanding environment.

Mars is a harsher environment than actual empty space, you can't just toss a space capsule onto the surface and expect to live in it for the next 2 years even if you had the food and power and extra parts.

Senior engineer 5+ years primarily working on the backend. I enjoy diagnosing and resolving performance issues. Also happy to build out features across the stack. Please reach out if my profile matches what you're looking for.
they provide a working service, which is a lot more than you can say about most startups today.

But they don't align with your political direction so they're grifters. You probably quit twitter too when musk took over, but are fine when the censorship was going the other way.
No, they aren't. IME meeting notes are useful only for people who missed the meeting and wanted to be there.

That isn't to say that there aren't other documentation artefacts that should be created as a result of the meeting (JIRA tickets, a wiki page explaining a particular feature), but they shouldn't ever take the form of "2021 June 23 meeting with marketing".
Can we also start a general "Andy Pavlo" appreciation comment chain?

Please comment below if Andy has in any way positively improved your life or helped you further your education/career.

I can start:

- Early in 2022, I decided I wanted to learn how databases like Postgres work and build one from scratch. If it wasn't for the CMU lectures available to the public on YouTube, I don't think I would have been able to give myself anywhere near a decent education.

- This year, Andy even made the homework-grading platform available to the public, so you could submit solutions to the database coursework and get graded as if you were a student attending CMU.

- Not only does Andy take the time to record, edit, and upload his lectures to the public, but he hosts a yearly seminar series where he interviews speakers from all over the database industry (https://db.cs.cmu.edu/seminar2022)

- Andy does all he does (Professorship) on top of running OtterTune, I have no idea how he functions. He truly is the realest of all gangsters, and a secret member of the Wu-Tang Clan. Andy makes databases fun.
I dont even have a clue what a full-stack even means these days, its just a resume wank-word somewhere between "cloud" and "framework"
> Nukes can also serve as propellant

Not as of now. The outer space treaty[1] forbids nuclear explosions in space. I don’t think this treaty will be revised until it is made obsolete by a total elimination of these weapons of horror (e.g. by another treaty[2]). So if you want to see nuclear explosions used as propellant in space (which honestly isn’t such a bad use for them) then I recommend you petition your government to sign and implement the UN ban on these world ending weapons, if they haven’t already.

To respond to OP's edit: frontend catches more shit because it's largely gotten worse at the same time as getting more complex. This isn't (only) outsiders looking in leveling that criticism—it's people who worked on GUI software in the 90s looking at the state of things and wondering why it's both constantly changing and, in many ways, worse than it was back then. Slower, worse tools producing slower, worse software, while constantly demanding that frontend developers run on a churn-treadmill for—it sure seems—no good reason.

Backend suffers from some similar issues, but not to the same degree. Frontend seems to be subject not just to the effects of the apparently-eternal fat/thin client cycle, as the backend also is, but to some other pressures that lead it to be constantly changing but not really getting better, and even getting worse over time.
Presumably you aren't constantly growing and in constant need of new clothes, nor do you need to pay someone to look after you on a day to day basis a la childcare.
Slighty unrelated, how many "distinguishable/unique" faces/facial styles are there in terms of like "broad categories?"

Obviously hard to define but as somebody who moved around a lot growing up, I would catch my brain thinking I'd recognize somebody (quite often) only to remember I was in a totally different state than where the person I thought I was recognizing lived.

Yes. How often do you use checks? Do you even know where they are?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I think it's fair to say that NeXTSTEP is considered to be extraordinary for its time, and one of the most influential GUIs in history. When NeXTSTEP 0.8 came out in 1989, here's what it and some competitors looked like:

NeXTSTEP 0.8: http://toastytech.com/guis/ns08.html

Windows 2.1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_2.1x

MacOS 6.0.4: https://apple.fandom.com/wiki/System_6.0.4

The last version of NeXTSTEP was 4.x in 1996. Here's what it looked like compared to its competitors at the time:

NeXTSTEP 4.x: https://guidebookgallery.org/screenshots/openstep42

Windows 95: https://guidebookgallery.org/screenshots/win95

MacOS wasn't quite 8 yet but we'll be nice: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_8

Note that Windows 95 (and OS/2) had copied NeXTSTEP GUI elements wholesale, including the 3D styling, the design of many widgets, the close and miniaturize icons, etc. It was direct and unabashed theft.

Of course NeXTSTEP had huge technological advances beyond just how its GUI looked, but that's what we're talking about. At any rate, I hope by this point that you are convinced that (1) when NeXTSTEP came out, its GUI styling was revolutionary, (2) by the time NeXT closed up shop, others were copying it rather openly, and (3) NeXTSTEP was still much better looking than they were.

Fun fact: NeXTSTEP had live window dragging in version 0.8, in 1989. By the time NeXTSTEP ceased to exist as a product, Windows and MacOS still didn't have it.
Could this approach be used on other types of models, such as image models eg stable diffusion?
Have you checked the interface that Google Sheets came up for custom functions? It's in the menu of every spreadsheet in Data > Named Functions. It's pretty good and encourages not only extensive naming but documentation & examples of the function and each argument. These descriptions are then displayed piece-meal as you edit a formula, just like native documentation.

I also love good names! I hated not being able to have names in formulas and the name part of Named Functions is alone a big quality of live improvement for me.

As to lambdas, perhaps calling them anonymous functions is giving the wrong impression here. What lambdas really are is a simple, native way to create a context with local names. They can be a great boon to clarity through naming!

Spreadsheets have been historically so limited that programmers have resorted to hacky ways to have names/comments. The N function for numerical values is used sometimes for this since N of a string defaults to 0: so N("Name/comment") = 0 and can be added to a formula without changing it.

As to the cultural practice of ultra-short, likely meaningless variable names, like single letters. I do agree it's a "mathy" thing and can quickly descend into maddening opaqueness. The trick though is that sometimes it's very useful to have as compact a symbolic representation as you can manage (such a process of abbreviation gave us algebra!). Naming things is hard, perhaps one of the truly hard things in thinking/programming as the saying goes :)

On a vanilla windows installation, almost all of those are only shortcuts to install the application is included as a convenience to endusers who may want this.

You can confirm this by looking at the size of the application when you goto uninstall it.

No it's not. If one forehand you do not know which "object graph" you need, you'll run in this problem no matter what the underlying tech is.

At least some with ORMs you can specify afterwards (when passing the activerecords) that you want to have prefetched (inner or outer joins, caching). Sometimes it's done automatically, because you can simply detect when you're in an N+1 query loop.
No it's completely insane because you never know what a different or future compiler is going to decide to bitch about.
FEEZE gives a full top row.
> Considering these to be separate disciplines is just more of the same madness. They're inextricable.

Not if you've actually done both. ;-)

Here's an example:

UX would be: on beginning a customer purchase, do we use a funnel pattern (isolating the purchase experience from the layout template), or is there backout that allows the user back to the store instead of back through the path.

UI would be: how do we design the checkout template, what colors and fonts from the corporate palette do we use where

Totally unrelated.

Make sense?

> now the question of qualified immunity while off-duty becomes a question.

Personally I hate tipping. Long term it just makes everyone frustrated. Socially, it used to be 10% now the bare minimum is 15% if give 18% people then people start becoming happy.

Now I'm forced to expect my price to be 15-20% more expensive than the list...
As a general principle, I do think that the level of offense taken should generally be proportional to the context in which a word is used. This particular circumstance is really at worst unfortunate.

That said...

> Perhaps if we ignored some of these reactions to words after... 80+ years, and just let the 'new' meaning become the default... we can move past censoring words that someone, somewhere, used as an insult?

The world we live in today lets black rappers use the n-word in their music while also seeing white teachers get fired for using it in the context of a classroom discussion about why it is a bad word and ought not be used.

The mental gymnastics of accepting a word which could be either a term of endearment or the most deeply offensive pejorative are too messy for my liking.

> It just wasn't a word used in my circle/area

This highlights the problem, I think. You've moved from a circle where it wasn't even in use, to a circle where it is in use with one meaning (an acronym), and now another circle where it has been used for 100 years with an entirely different meaning (a slur).

You have a decision to make. Acknowledge that other people see the word differently than you do, or try to convince everyone that only your view of the word is the right one. Personally, I think it would be easier for the gimp to be renamed, but I'm also making an assumption (based on the circles I've run in) that more people are familiar with gimp as a slur than they are with it as an acronym for a software program.

In severe cardiac patients you prescribe monitored exercise with a Physical Therapist in order to guarantee compliance and safety.

Not sure...is this a joke because the error message is from 2006?
It is almost as if complexity is increasing regardless of the software field one is in. Maybe it's due to the fact that engineers exist to build complexity, stacking layers is what we do day to day.
There's a good chance AI and robotics can replace a big portion of human workforce. If that happens, then the high ratio of old people to young is no longer a problem.

Even though whatever Yelp does is not illegal, it engages in unethical practices:
"[R]emoving positive reviews wasn’t extortion because Yelp didn’t have to publish those reviews at all. Third, publishing or showcasing negative reviews wasn’t extortion because Yelp has the legal right “to post and sequence the reviews.” Finally, the plaintiffs claimed Yelp wrote bogus reviews to punish non-advertisers, but the plaintiffs didn’t provide adequate evidence that Yelp wrote those negative reviews instead of someone else. For example, even if a business couldn’t find records matching the reviewer’s details, that doesn’t mean Yelp falsified that review (compare the Yelp v. Hadeed case, which in a different legal context gave more benefit of the doubt to an aggrieved business with similar claims)."
Basically if your C++ function takes a pointer you need to write one for unique_ptr, or raw pointer (documenting the ownership).

With a GC, there is a global owner so you don't have to think about ownership for everything, this breaks down for some resource release (maybe half of objects) which is not necessarily easier. But typically GC languages also allow you to use RAII, though maybe not as consistently as C++.

What kind of programs can have unclear ownership? Basically everything that doesn't need to be high quality.
> Seriously, these days nobody should be writing personal checks

FTFY. The US is the only country in the world that I know of where writing personal checks is still commonplace. In Europe they're thoroughly obsolete, and in Asia, where they were mostly uncommon in the first place, even the few once check-happy countries like Singapore have pretty much migrated off.
Yes. I moved a very large/mature Django project from use of MyPy to use of Pyright. My experience was that pyright flagged a bunch of new conditions that MyPy seemed to have missed. The cost was that I needed to add (many!) explicit annotations or casts in places the Django MyPy plug-in would have just “known” about the types, for instance in foreign key relations in Models.

In general, we were very happy with the result and never looked back. Correctness and perf were both notably improved. (That pyright is also part of pylance, Microsoft’s proprietary LSP implementation for Python that plays well with VSCode, was an advantage for this particular team.)

This was about a year and a half ago so the experience may differ; both pyright and mypy + its plugins have gotten more capable and mature over time.

Email: hirevince@finalatomicbuster.net

I have spent the last 1.5 years or so working primarily in React JS for a SaaS startup. Prior to that I was more of a full stack person and contributed to and designed both front end applications and their backend components. In addition to a background in software engineering I have spent years as both a network engineer and a computer security researcher/tester.

In my personal time I am currently learning how to create AR/VR applications using c# and Unity. Additionally I contribute to an open source/free application at bikehopper.org. Currently integrating a backend I wrote in Kotlin that transforms geoJSON to Garmin Fit files that can be used to provide directions/routes on cycling computers!

I am looking to work with fun and smart people on interesting problems that inspire!

Thanks!
