>Regarding manufacturing and machines/machining, any book or resources that stood out? I'm most familiar with the Machinery's Handbook.

I went to a top tier school for MechE and Materials, and would recommend two intro books: Engineering Mechanics Statics by Meriam and Kriage and Shigley's Mechanical engineering Design in that order . If you fully understand the contents of these book, it probably puts you in the top 10% of mechanical engineering graduates.

For a broader education, you can read Fundamentals of Heat and Mass transfer by Incropera, DeWitt, Bergmann & Lavine as well as Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics by Munson, Young & Okiishi.

Understanding these two books will probably as well will probably put you in the top 1% of grads.

If you have a strong background in mathematics, these mostly deal with applications of linear algebra and differentials, so the value is understanding the applications.

From there, you can branch out. If applicable, Ogata's Modern Control Engineering and Tongu's Principles of vibration

Most undergraduates dont really understand these due to the heavy application of Laplace and Fourier transforms, but are relevant if you want to build complex machines.
Ok, I'm almost convinced now that I am arguing with a ChatGPT bot. An actual human would know that given the context of the conversation this is a non-sense answer. No shit I can scour the internet for bad takes on any subject, wow, what a revelation!
Yep. As you say, the vast majority of people have no problem with SMS. I wrote the article in the hopes of convincing at least a few more people to have a problem with it.
I guess a setup such as hdfs where storage and compute are colocated and not disaggregated. But that also offers similar transactional semantics to lakehouses.
They did mention Matrix - which seems to be the best and most obvious choice, if you're trying to optimize for open-source, e2ee, run-on-any-device, not-tied-to-phone, and other features.

Going for worse tech solutions will just make the discussion for which app to download for your friend group slightly shorter.
This gave me both a good groan and chuckle.

You're pointing out a place where I think many software engineers are either untrained, unprofessional, or both. There's already a large body of discourse around the problems that come from these practices—licensing violations, security breaches, and stupendously dumb bugs.

Professional rigor is a thing I wish our industry had more of, but in practice you don't see much rigor outside of safety critical applications because there is rarely incentive for it.
Array is defined in the Swift standard library, but the compiler knows about the type directly, and also recognizes various @_semantics("array.blah") annotations that appear in the standard library source code. I believe the semantics annotations are primarily to help the optimizer.

Where does this unfulfillement come from? Is the work itself not interesting enough for you? Was it ever? Is your team good? Is your manager good? Is it the company you're tired of? The sector/industry you're in?

Did this happen from the first day or has it evolved to be so? Was it better "before"? When was that "before"? What has changed in the meantime? Can you recall a time when it was fulfilling and describe it? Have you experienced this at other organizations/teams/jobs? Are there any similarities?

Have you experienced fulfilling jobs/positions/orgs/teams? What were the similarities?

Is this something that happens periodically (once a year/quarter/month/week or a few days a week, or a few hours a day, or related to some kind of tasks or responsibilities or interactions or dynamics?). What do you like the most in your current and past positions?

> 400 million instances of user data in the second alleged breach could not be correlated with the previously reported incident, nor with any new incident.

Genuinely curious – What does this mean? It seems like they're saying this data is not from/overlapping with the old/known leak of 5.4 million accounts, but also not that it's a new incident. So where is this data coming from?

> The data is likely a collection of data already publicly available online through different sources.

How would another source have collected 400 million twitter handle + email + phone number combos, without leveraging twitter's own data to make that pairing?
In my circles there was a lot of reaction, as it seemed to be a Freudian slip as to how racist the man is. It's seemed instead the media rather wanted to protect him for some post-trumpian political reason.
> Do you see the implications of what you’re saying?

Yes.

> The reason that speech is cherry-picked to be the cornerstone of public school education — the reason it’s the “breakthrough hit” — is that it allows people to avoid confronting the radical and uncomfortable aspects of MLK’s demands.

Sure it’s cherry picked, but it was also the message he delivered with the most weight to the largest audience with the largest resonance to that audience that we valued enough to continue carrying forward.

We don’t carry forward every message by every person, and we don’t carry forward every message for every person we do carry messages forward for. This was what he had to say that we valued the most.

> This is an example of survivorship bias. MLK obviously didn’t anticipate when he made the “I Have A Dream” speech that he would have only a few more years to live.

It’s not just survivorship bias though. This was the culmination of the March on Washington. It was kind of a big deal. You have the biggest live audience you can ever expect to have in your lifetime, even if you’re Martin Luther King Jr, so what do you think he should have said instead with the fantastic advantage of hindsight that you possess? Nowadays we can post on YouTube and get tens of thousands of hits every day as long as we’re better than mediocre. Limited opportunities for engagement force you to focus on what you think is most important to say at that moment.
Technically this is not true- there are a lot of techniques to shard models and store activation between layers or even smaller subcomponents of the network. For example, you can split the 175B parameter bloom model into separate layers, load up a layer, read the prev. layers input from disk, and save the output to disk.

And NVIDIA does make cards like you are asking for - the A100 is the fast memory offering, the A40 the bulk slower memory (though they added the 80GB A100 and did not double the A40 to 96GB so this is less true now than the P40 vs P100 gen).

Oddly, you can get close to what you are asking for with a M1 Mac Studio - 128GB of decently fast memory with a GPU that is ~0.5x a 3090 in training.
I am glad to see you like Sunnyside Pizza too. I have had dreams about that place.
you'd have to compare the US far right, with other modern countries far right's i guess, to determine if it was accurate or not. You'd also need to compare the US far left against far left's in other modern countries. I'd suspect, that what goes for far left in the US is more positioned as moderate in other modern countries.

>Let's say all the farms in the world could sustain 100 billion people. Can't we run those farms with only 1 billion people? Why would non-workers cause starvation?

Why should the non-workers steal the surplus value created by those who work via taxation? Or is it only theft when filthy business owners do it via contractual agreements to trade labor for wages?
So, essentially "power over thicknet ethernet". Nobody liked that tech. "Worked in the lab, and whenever it breaks we can blame the user for improper abuse" was such a fiasco it resulted in the world being re-networked in twisted pair, which ironically is installed very much like legacy power outlets...

Also the only way to replace the outlet would seem to be to rip out the entire wall and splice in new cables like a complete do-over which seems a bit extreme although profitable, or do a high resistance fire causing re-crimp. This is "OK" for receptacles that last the life of the house, if the life of the house is short enough, but wall switches would be essentially unreplacable.

One idea that might save money is giving up on copper switched wall switches. Feed the wall switch 12 volts and let them speak zwave to control things.
The issue is you can't just send Chat GPT output to your clients if you're aiming for accuracy and quality. It will be able to augment your job but not replace you.

Also, you can't ask it questions like "what happened in the market last week" without compiling the information about "last week" and going through it. Then you have to read the output anyway and make sure it is accurate and what you want to send to a client.
> I'm not fond of having my web server running things in the background it ruins my mental model of the web.

Well yes, and you run into other problems as well (now if your process dies or you deploy or something you have to be careful to not kill running jobs).

> But it makes sense for taxpayers to ask whether the operant regulations & safety net should be changed such that Walmart had to shoulder a larger portion of the burden for keeping their workers employed.

I think we're on the same page for the most part. My hesitation stems from this common framing of the problem as one that--at least rhetorically--originates with Walmart. To me, this framing seems to have less to do with the actual problem, its cause and potential solutions, than with political convenience. That wouldn't be a concern if the folks writing the bills drew a line between rhetoric and policy, but I'm not sure that's a reasonable expectation these days.

It seems to me that the origin of the problem is with the nature of the welfare state, and that solving the problem at its root will require changes to the welfare state and the incentives that it creates. I'm not saying we should blow it up the welfare state, but if we can't even admit that our problems are of our own making, we've got zero chance of solving them.
Except it's not a legal requirement, I've had plenty of friends who's companies didn't pay out PTO when switching to DTO.
The answer to every single category is "yes" to whether its worth encrypting. The question isn't whether or not data is worth encrypting, it's whether it's worth encrypting in ways which have worse user ergonomics as a trade-off to potentially better security. There is literally no reason in 2023 why normal users should not have full-disk encryption enabled on every single device and be using a password manager, both tied to on-device secure biometrics (think TouchID).
Or let the Guarani and other natives have their way. Which in pre-columbian times was nomadic, treading very lightly from one place to another, making small amounts of 'terra preta' while camping in one place for a short while.

Ah yes thank god we have more paper pushers in hospitals than doctors. Otherwise who would push the paper?
I agree with you, but that's how things work over here.

To stay on the topic of speed limits, there's a national speed limit for towns / cities, 50 kmph. It's usually not posted as such, but there being a sign with a town name means you must observe that.

Other peculiarities you have to know: when you enter a town, there may be a different speed limit posted than the national limit, typically 30 kmph, very rarely 70. It matters if the speed limit sign is physically attached to the name sign, or if it stands on its own. In the former case, it means that's the speed limit for all the streets of the town. If not, it's the regular limit, meaning until the first intersection, when the default one comes in effect.

The signs are otherwise identical.
Inactive people require fewer calories (and other resources in general) than actively working people. If we were at carrying capacity then each person working would actually result in people starving to death.
Not sure if it fits in scope, but I find this classic to be an ingenious intro to where to start from in terms of visualisation:

I've always seen national speed limit signs at the exit of airports, similar to the signs you see at national borders. Here's the one at the exit of Schiphol: https://goo.gl/maps/PD6jvvpsDgV3Rwq97
Celery has a lot of gotchas, but primarily the issue I have had is with resource consumption. Maybe it is a problem with my config, but I haven't had this issue with other solutions.
As well as using a heat pump, a more efficient dryer can be better-insulated, or make better use of the heat produced in drying clothes, however that might be done.
High income but also high competition.
If it costs $1,000,000 per year to provide air, and my full-time labor doesn't produce $1,000,000 worth of value, where does that leave me in your view?
It is a comparison in the same spirit as the original article.

I find that more true for bagels than pizza. Some bagel places are better than others but I don't find much value in crossing the city vs. just going to the best place in your neighborhood.

But pizza's a totally different story for me. First off there's no single "real" point - people like what they like and there's no reason people have to have the same kinds of interest.

I have always and will continue to always travel large distances through NYC to enjoy the pizza places I like. There are clear differences - both in style and quality.

When I'm in a pinch and want pizza, sure. I won't go far. But I personally find the difference between your average place down the block and a sought out destination huge. And if I have the time and energy I'd much rather experience my preferred places.

> Moreover, despite all of the hate, iMessage actually works great.

That hasn't been my experience. Often it does. And then sometimes it doesn't. My sense is that when it doesn't, it's because of the interdependence on SMS.
In Databricks published benchmark of course Delta is the fastest. I have also seen some Iceberg using company publishing benchmarks showing how Iceberg is the fastest.

Vendor published benchmarks are worthless.
But we also don't fight the landlord or other tenants to the death for an apartment. And that isn't even getting into the quality of life.
Agreed. My understanding is that around the founding of the United States, something like half of the working population had jobs relating to producing food (farming, fishing, etc). Today it's something like 1%. As agriculture has gotten ridiculously efficient, that's freed up more of us to invent computers or vaccines or TikTok dance trends or whatever. Of course we still need truck drivers to deliver this abundance to our homes (something like 5-10% of the US working population, depending on whether you just count truckers, or Amazon drivers, or gig economy delivery folks, etc)...

But if we make it to a sci-fi future where robofarms produce foods with little involvement, robotrucks transport goods with little human involvement, housing is built by mobile 3D-printer-bots, using materials mined by robots, etc... it's easy to see where the basics could be so easily provided that it would seem (to me) morally repugnant not to provide them to everyone.

I don't believe we've reached a point where UBI makes sense, but it's interesting to me that even if we were in this sci-fi everything-is-plentiful-and-automated future, some folks still think only the people that happened to be born at the right time and into the right circumstances to own and/or operate these robots should reap the rewards. The unlucky who didn't happen to own shares of RoboInc or land one of the scarce jobs ought to subsist as a member of a wretched underclass?

I'd love to look into a parallel universe where Make didn't make so many really basic mistakes by 2023 standards. For instance, it has a lot of the "was there an error? eh, just keep going" philosophy from early days. I'd like it to be an error if a make rule claims to make a certain dependency and it fails to do so. That one change in a single stroke would eliminate a lot of Make's hostility when trying to first understand it. There's a series of similar things that could be done.

All of its replacements generally involve such a paradigm shift that it's no longer a comparable, to use a real estate term.

I've got a whole list; $ being used for both make and shell replacements, leading to $$$$(var) abominations and the general lack of clarity as to which variables are for which things, many places where lists were clearly bodged in as after thoughts when they should be designed in from the beginning, tabs as meaningful whitespace is a classic but still a problem, .PHONY being a rather ugly hack when there should be a clear distinction between "a command I want to provide" versus "this is how to make a dependency", and while this may not be a user-visible behavior change, taking away all the C defaults so the strace is no longer a nightmare of trying every implicit C rule before actually trying the rule I want it to try. At least a mode of invoking the shell that looks more like a programming language where I pass a clean array of strings rather than the shell language, already a nightmare of string interpolation on its own terms, buried in another string interpolation language sitting on top of it. A thought-out solution to recursive versus included makefiles. And I never became a make master, but by my 21st century standards, trying to use make is just a fractal of bad 1970s ideas hitting me at every turn, so I'm quite sure if I had to work with it a lot more I could go on for quite a while. As it is I think I've forgotten some.

I think people, not entirely illegitimately, have trouble separating the essential concept of make, which I think was quite solid, from the accidental comedy of errors that we have as a received standard. So a lot of make replacements end up running from both of them, and often end up with a much more annoying essential concept at their core, such as a super-heavy-duty enumeration of "these are the exact things you may ever be interested in doing", which puts them behind the eight ball no matter how good their accidental choices may be.

It just seems like a horrible practice to me because the fact that 1930s Germany tracked Jewish people and allowed them to kill so many.

If we could guarantee that another genocidal dictator won't come to power then I might be OK with it. Couple that tracking with the surveillance and one might be able to ensure few slip through the cracks.
What's weird is I was around for that, was in college and ate Domino's pretty regularly at the time, and everyone seems to believe it was indeed a lot better, but I thought it was a ton worse than what they had before. Just tasted like a lot more MSG and oregano.
