Think about the context.

- "I value 30% faster compilation far more than..."

It takes 10,000 hours of wall-clock CPU time to reach your 200 euro figure. That tradeoff is against a 30% decrease in compilation time, or 3,000 hours.

Say what you will about idle power or whatever; but we're talking about the case of 100% all-core CPU for a programmer who is compiling something, and whether or not they should throttle those CPU cores to save money on power bills. The math is an easy "no".
It tracks with what I've seen in NYC. “Most” might be a slight exaggeration, but not by much.

(I'm hoping to put a tiny dent in that by growing our non-crypto Rust team over the next couple of years. And I won't hold anyone's former means of putting bread on the table against them ;))
I would call it "good enough" rather than perfect.

The usual meaning for "perfect is the enemy of good" I've heard is the danger of spending forever to perfect something instead of releasing and learning from experience.

That's quite different, and virtually no one lost their money in that it was simply stolen by the owners of an accredited brokerage/exchange/bank, like what happened to FTX. And FTX wasn't simply gambling with other's money, they were defrauding their customers (to whom they claimed they are holding all of their money in custody) and also directly embezzling this money for their own gain (houses, publicity, illegal political investments).
Now that the BBC has mentioned it, is the Govt going to do a proper investigation of why and do something to fix it?

Covid, Covid vaccines or not, excess deaths should be falling because the excess deaths of previous years should mean a deficit of excess deaths in the following years.

Something has gone deeply wrong and the Govt is doing nothing and leaving the underlying causes to BBC speculation.

These figures should also be analyzed properly by age group, something the BBC journalists are clearly not interested in even though they have the resources to do.
I see your 2011 and here is my (already a robotic arm) 2008 in production:

from what I understand about marble sculptures is that some of the last passages are (at least in the mentioned laboratory) still done by hand, including minor sculpting.

Anyway after the sculpture is almost ready, there are at least two passages (fine sanding/polishing and final polishing with - usually - calcium-oxalate) that AFAIK cannot be done by the robot.
Django is an WebFramework, Meinheld is an WSGI Server framework.

Looking for Rust jobs on LinkedIn used to yield mostly postings in crypto. That may not be the case anymore with the downturn, my guess is that there are just fewer rust jobs now that the crypto ones are gone.

I think the reason is simply that crypto companies didn't have the clout or stability of big tech and also the sector has a poor reputation amongst engineers so they pick hip languages to compensate. Like "Yes I know, working in crypto is terrible but did you think about how you could write Rust everyday instead of Java??"
Tracking tech has only gotten better, and more profitable. There is no incentive for carriers to stop selling a product that is legal for them to sell.
One day the world will wrap its head around the fact that having COVID affects your immune system long-term and as such is bad for future health outcomes.

Welcome to my TED talk. Wear a mask.
At the risk of sounding naggy, I think you could maybe give Rust another go. A lot has improved recently, and depending on how long ago you tried it, maybe even radically. A lot of limitations in the language are now lifted thanks to a smarter compiler (NLLs, GATs, more ergonomic error handling syntaxes, etc)
I think the societal response to this implies that after 3 years of adapted behavior to limit risk of excess death, people are kind of done.

There better be at least a decade until the next pandemic, at this point even the black death wouldnt convince people to go back into lock down.
Also, if the target host is infiltrated, it can use your private SSH key for authentication elsewhere without your knowledge.

Not normally, right? Isn't that the whole point of public-key cryptography?

Eh they're forcing people to use a plugin which uses their servers/magic. The real revolution will happen (eventually) with open source models that either run on the player's machine or tools that are used to generate at build time.
You're just being silly. The healthcare crisis in the UK is related to government mismanagement.

Candidly, how do you review this prior of yours against the realities brought forward by the war in Ukraine?
> So many societal issues today arise because systems developed centuries ago cannot keep up with a population that has grown exponentially since then.

If you had 1 lawyer per 100 people in 1800 and you had 1 lawyer per 100 people today, I don't see a scaling problem with population.

Indeed in the UK in 2012 there were 120,000 solicitors for 64 million

Today it's 160,000 for 68 million

That's a 30% increase in lawyers with a 6% increase in population.

Why do we need more lawyers per person today than 10 years ago?

> For instance did the UK become a Software behemoth ? France ? Germany ? Brazil ? India ?

UK, France and Germany all are pretty big in software, as also in gaming. Japan is also big in gaming, but they started with consoles and hardware. Only in the recent decade became their software-side better, but it's still kinda crappy to be honest.

Brazil and India, were they not to poor to made it big in the early IT-years? Even today they are busy with catching up. Though, India has found their stance in IT at this point, at least as contractors.
Tim, as a Mombusho exchange student in Kanazawa (and Rotary before that in Sapporo) your post brought up some great memories of my time in Japan in the 90s.

My best guess is that raising funding helps raise the valuation, especially as they approach IPO. So raise money for the sake of raising the valuation.

You don’t really need the money, but you got it. What are you going to do with it to appease the investors? Well you gotta act like you are doing something with it, especially something that shows growth.

Hire more. Hire more because we imagine more. Keep imagining until imagining doesn’t work anymore. Then fire, and say sorry. Hopefully you sold enough equity at the ridiculous ipo price.

Sorry, but not sorry.
> one thing is for certain — we don’t live in a world as dark as our worst fears.

At least until 2020, emissions have matched the worst case scenario analyzed by IPCC:
https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2007117117

At the same time, the US has no greenhouse emissions taxes.

But let's just stop worrying and enjoy life. Let all polar species get replaced with tropical ones, and let the tropics become barren scorched desert. (this is mockery of the post)

I say: don't obsess over it, but do what is within your influence to steer towards a better future. For instance, my comment here coupled with an upvote to the post would maximize the exposure to potential US lawmakers.
> But maintenance people in aviation aren't really ever exercising those creative problem solving skills

This is the opposite of what happened. The engineers were confronted with a novel and unexpected problem, and instead of following procedure (which they lacked access to) they applied "creative problem solving skills". From TFA:

> Although it was possible to install the post-SB fuel lines and hydraulic pump with a pre-SB hydraulic tube, the tube would rest against one of the fuel lines at a point where it rounded a 90-degree bend close to the pump. Aware that the plane could not be dispatched unless there was clearance between the tubes, the technicians torqued a nut on the end of the hydraulic tube until it rose approximately 0.635 mm off the face of the fuel line.

Torquing a nut so that the hydraulic tube isn't technically rubbing against the fuel line is pretty creative and seems to solve the problem. But it didn't take into account pressure and vibration while in flight, and almost caused the death of 306 people.
Parasitic rents and many other market distortions/extortions exist.

Is this really a mystery still? Well we know we can't blame it on fats anymore, our governments have tried that completely failed trope for 70 years now. And looks where it's gotten us. Heart disease is killing western diet eaters like there's really no tomorrow. I think it's obvious that constantly high insulin is the biggest driver of vascular disease. Hyperinsulinemia precedes diabetes and is measurable 10-20 years before your a1c will detect pre diabetes. This drives virtually all diseases of "modern western man/person" - heart attacks, stroke, dementia, connective tissue diseases, diabetes. It's insulin!

Low fat diets high in refined carbs disrupting the absorption of k, d, e, a. sugary beverages with zero fiber, 3 meals and 5 snacks a day so your insulin levels never come down even at night sometimes. Your body can never repair itself or stop storing fat instead of using them. 3 meals and 5 snacks a day= zero ability to distinguish cravings and real hunger. Being told to gobble 5+ fruits a day by every dietician. Fruits bear in the winter, we live in climate controlled buildings. Why are we gobbling so much fructose from 5+ fruits a day.

I do this even on AM4 - I have a 5800X but I run it in ECO mode which locks it to 65W PTT.

Drops on average less than 10% multi core performance and no single core performance at all. Much quieter, cheaper, etc.

I also have a 35W 5750GE (8c16t too) and that’s also a very respectable performer compared to the 105W 5800X!

We’re so far off the ideal part of the perf/W curve it’s not funny, and I swear being closer to that is part of where Apple et al have done so well.

Edit: and from compute benchmarks on my 3090, the best perf/watt - measured in whole system total power drawn to complete a variety of cuda tasks, that card is most efficient around 225W or so… which is crazy considering they’re sold at 350W or more!
Is Tare even maintained? I tried to build it with Mochi, but it gives weird error messages.
Yes and no. More people are also having more health issues because of a weakened immunse system (due to prior COVID infections). The "direct" link might not necessarily be made, but there's definite increased mortality as a consequence of COVID policies.
> most catastrophes have...lower-than-average airmanship

I wonder how many (significantly) lower than average airmanship days happen everyday without incident. I suspect it’s a lot, and the overall system catches/corrects many and is resilient to the effects of many others.

120k is "meaningless" if you do not mention how large of a population and how long of a duration - and the comparison that you do use is basically "clickbait".

And if you do not compare it with other causes of death, someone that doesn't deal routinely with these numbers (so, most people) still has no idea how much of a problem it is. (For instance I've been comparing war deaths in Ukraine to roadkills in Ukraine to gauge this.)
I would not be so sure art production costs would go down. It all depends on how control of the technology is distributed, the willingness / ability to recognize and reward the still necessary human artistic input etc. Artists have been perenially on the receiving end as far as securing economic benefits from their work. On the basis of current / historical form the expected scenario is that intermediaries will create an oligopoly and will tax all such production at the maximum rate that won't kill the market.

But I think we actually aggree on the broader point that automation becomes just another tool in various professional contexts. What is annoying is that, at least to the "masses" it is not sold like that at all. Software is endowed with agency and miraculous powers, diverting the discussion to bizarre and pointless metaphysical speculation and crowding out the real discussions that we need to have in the public: who gets access to what data, what can they do with them etc. etc.
Surely there is some middle ground? Why everything has to be black or white and everyone needs to give silver bullet rules?

A service that stores something can be called "catalog" and it is descriptive, short and memorable. On the other hand, a service that does too many things can be called "zeus" or "cyclops" or whatever and that's okay too. It's difficult to have memorable and short names when things do too many things, or as mentioned in the post, they might change responsibilities.

Also, when you have something descriptive composed of multiple words (like "data-streaming-analyzer") people will certainly start using acronyms (DSA) and then you're back to short names than don't mean anything.

There's a world where everything is not called "pikachu", "cyclops", "potter" and "tortilla", nor "main-store-red-website", "download-analytics-store-and-processing", "sells-stream-processor". Use both. They are both useful!
And if a substantial amount of business was conducted using bitcoins or other cryptocurrencies, I have no doubt the rest of the world would have figured out a way to cut Russians off from them as well. That's one of the prices you pay when your government decides to invade one of their neighbors and tries to commit genocide.
Humans evolved playing as a teaching (data set input) strategy. We took playing and trees and made games around climbing, we took playing and puzzling things and made puzzle games, we took computers and puzzle games and made video games;

We have a very similar algorithm to AI for creating 'new' things, that never really strays from our data sets.
I thought the 4nm AMD Zen 4 SoC aka Ryzen 7040 is a much more interesting chip. unfortunately it isn't getting much attention.
I must tell why my confusion came here:
Earlier in the code, we’ve done this:

//head of snake
let snakeArr = [
{
x: 13,
y: 15
}
]

Here x,y means the grid row 13, grid column 15. That is why I’m confused. We’re using same variable names in 2 places with different meanings. In this question, we’re using x,y for direction(up,down etc).

How are we able to do this?
Oh super I did not realize they have a linux version of Organteq, I will definitely have to try that. I've used Grand Orgue so far and that works quite well, but I am a very happy user of Pianoteq (you can guess what that does) and Modartt has definitely raised the bar there, so I'm curious what they can do with Organs (arguably: easier to model in theory but probably a lot harder in practice).
It’s a bullshit machine which can write a convincing text on a subject and in an adequate style or convincingly hold a conversation.

That’s an extremely impressive leap from what we could do a decade ago. Sure, it lies. Sure, it needs improvement. Still if you can’t see why it’s significant and how it has tremendous potential, well, I fear there is not much we can do for you.
That’s not an explanation. That’s just making something up with no data to support it.
>Even a couple of years ago, hardly anyone would have imagined that jobs that typically require years of practice, training and skill could become equally under pressure as the traditional labour jobs that have been replaced by robots
This has always happened right through history. Although it is correct that technology developed at such a slow pace until the industrial era (ie cart with 4 wheels major transport until the car, only like 60 years from first flight to landing on the moon).

Previously the transition was over the ages, ie iron, bronze, steel etc. But recent progression means we're going to start seeing stuff like that happen faster; I think atm a huge automation stopper is the cost. We manufacture stuff in China because it's cheaper, they don't automate as much as they could because: * Human workers can still be cheaper, because they pay them so little * Job creation is forced by gov because it would otherwise become a HUGE problem (in China/similar).
and well, COVID being fundamentally a cardiovascular disease might be an actual alternative explanation :)
They will eventually run out though.

You aren’t stopping by slamming the breaks with chains, onspots, or neither. There will still need to be tire rotation to control direction. I don’t recall which was worse. Fact is snow and ice requires a lot more of everything to drive in. I stay home if I can these days.
The title seems accurate and appropriate to me. If I were selecting a framework for performance I might chose this framework, which I would use through Python, rather than a Go framework that I would program in Go. It's a framework, you use it with Python, and the performance is good (apparently, I didn't check).

Well Dave Cutler changed from DEC to Microsoft. VMS is the older system specialized for big servers "fast" networks, clusters and security.

When Cutler went to Microsoft the restrictions where clearly the slow and small PC's (the main customers of MS), so that really "cut" the system down (pun intended). Like the Idea to implement NT as a pure microkernel, but it was just too slow for the normal home PC, and that's why NT is kind of a hybrid.

My 2 penny opinion on this debate is people should always refer to the UK government rather than the "NHS". The NHS is just a government department run by the health minister.

I name all my machines after a theme, unlike a major organisation I don't have the money to have dns-server-0 and dns-server-1 which ONLY host an authoritative pair of DNS servers and then web-server-0 which ONLY hosts my website etc etc.

But if you can guarantee that something will continue to be one thing for ever and ever, I think maybe a descriptive name can work. It really depends on what level of analysis you're working on. Services probably shouldn't change their core purpose over-time, but business pressures may result in them changing their core purpose.
Last time I got heavily downvoted for this, but please if you're in the UK do not rely on the NHS. Indeed, you cannot rely on the NHS. There is no knowing whether or not they will have the capacity to save you.
