Please put the goalposts back to where they where when I answered the question about differences between internal and external reviwers.
FYI, Github does the same thing too.

I really like this way to ensure password robustness, users with password generators are not blocked by some absurd rules.
To cross the Atlantic between NA and Europe you need to be able to travel 138 minutes from an airport, although for almost the entire area it’s 120 minutes.

This is accomplished by having air strips which can take massive planes like A350s at remote places which can’t justify planes of that size normally like Newfoundland, Greenland and the Azores

While these are mainly there for military and temporary emergency use, in 2001 they were used far more - with dozens of planes landing at tiny towns like Gander and St. John’s in Newfoundland, places which only really expect a single large plane to land and refuel rather than 30 with passengers to accommodate for days.
Yes, this is one of those talks. The book doesn't really cover much more.
Thank you. I have been permanently hungry since the day I was born (according to my mom), and it takes a lot of effort to avoid being overweight.

The best way for me to mitigate it is to eat very large amount of vegetables, the problem is that I can really have those amounts at home, not really at a restaurant.
My experience is that many things in the US are cheaper than Europe or south America. It must depend on what type of products.
Yes. If its one thing we've seen ChatGPT and the like struggling with, it's internal consistency and keeping the whole text coherent and tied to some fundamental overarching thread or strategy.

To play devil's advocate though, would a layman without AI help be any better at navigating this?
Then I imagine the defendant would risk enjoying a stretch in jail for contempt of court, for creating an unauthorized recording or live "streaming" of the court?

I'm not even convinced by the idea of having a person repeat what they hear through headphones - something like this could easily slow proceedings down, and that's without even going into whether or not the AI can stick to a consistent and accurate set of facts.
> You need to learn about a dozen English keywords to use something like C++. The rest is abstract thinking. Windows, Visual Studio etc have been available in Japanese for a long time. By that logic, every country that doesn't speak English should suck at software development.

Better to say every country where the professional class can’t be expected to read English can be expected to suck at software development. I can’t think of an obvious counter example. Being mostly isolated from the mainstream of software development doesn’t mean you can’t achieve anything but it does make it harder.
The problem with open-source contributions is that many projects don't have documentation and some don't even have a Slack/Discord channel where they hang out so you can ask questions. If anyone knows a well document open-source project looking for contributors please share? (has to have decent amount of stars)
I mean, if the AI app is better than public defenders, it’s still progress. Rich people can already afford experts, so the inequality would be lessened.
In this case, its actually required. The state is actually for the entire chart. It has lots of settings not just the time duration but type of chart, crosshair should be set or not, then there are several types of chart studies which could be applied on chart along with their own settings. And also the chart drawings with their own settings. This feature is there so that people can share their own customized chart in full with others, and not a generalized chart.

Keurig is really terrible, like the fast-food version of coffee. But I don't really like electric kettles. Sure, they let you control the temperature a bit better, but you can do it with traditional kettle over a gas stove if you add a thermometer (or have a thermometer built in to the kettle). I know most people probably prefer just pressing a button to waiting for the water to reach the right temperature, though.
Or you find one of those lovely sites where the password has a max length and they tell you it, but instead of validating, they truncate the password and save silently.

Oh, of course they truncate also the password confirmation field.
China has more developers that speak English than Japan does and they’re ~all in Shanghai, Beijing or Shenzhen because that’s where the money is. Shanghai is substantially easier to get around with very bad Chinese than Tokyo is with very bad Japanese.
> the masses aren't interested in this

Having a store of value is in fact appealing to the masses, especially those with weak national currencies. We know this because the rates of crypto adoption are highest in developing nations, where national currencies are not as strong.

Yes, the possibility of making a lucrative investment is also appealing, and is what's driving most of its current growth, but as BTC settles into its role as store-of-value (which may take 10+ years) it is expected to become less volatile, and adopted for this use case.

> central bank money will always be superior due to its intrinsic connection to the governing authority of the region that mediates the economy

There are two sides to this sword. In wealthy, democratic governments this allows for more control over the economy, boosting it in times of need, but for oppressive regimes it just gives the government more power to act in their own interest.

> * people want their stuff, they don't want bitcoin and have no reason to use it.*

People do not immediately use all of their wealth to consume things, instead they have to store some of it somewhere. This is one of the uses of currencies. In countries with high inflation there is difficulty for people to store any wealth at all in their central bank's currency, and have instead resorted to Gold, USD, and Bitcoin.

> Peak bitcoin is what bitcoin looks like today.

If peak BTC is what it looks like today, then there is no incentive for people to keep pouring money into it, so its value relative to Gold, USD should not increase too much from what it is today.

I believe we are still far away from peak Bitcoin, and that Bitcoin will continue to rise in value in terms of USD over the long run.
They produced 20 times more fully electric vehicles than toyota, honda, and ford combined in 2022.

Tesla produced about 1.4 million all electric vehicles in 2022 with a growth rate of about 40%.[1]
Toyota:1220 (The BZ4X is the only full electric sold in 2022)[2]
Honda: I don't think they sell any all electric cars right now. None on this list[3].

I still have an amber vt520 here. It's great to focus on something though it's harder now to find software that still obeys termcap/terminfo :(

For me the attraction was also the ubiquity of them. I studied in the mid 90s when the web was born and it made the X Terminals at college extremely popular so it was always hard to get one. The rooms full of text terminals are being neglected and it was great to always have one available. It made it something I could rely on to always be there.
Reverse ETL would be a better description here— think data warehouse -> Amplitude
In the 2020s I largely invoice in USD, despite being a european immigrant, because almost no one else pays.

(even if there weren't a substantial rate difference: it is far less painful to stay awake until Pacific Time to coordinate with people who grok remote development than to attempt to deal with people in my time zone who do not)
That's also a reason to avoid it, to be honest... any time a publisher becomes closer to a medium than a publisher we're in trouble!
Further on this - inputDir is just vector, which says where to movement is happening.

As initial is x=0, y=1, it means it will increase position Y by 1 - in other words it initially goes downwards.
Maybe people aren't so non-religious as they seem. I see a lot of claims in here that there are no believers in church choirs etc. At best that's wishful thinking, at worst it's maybe even a lie to draw people in.

In my experience, most groups that have Christian hymns in their repertoire are closet Christians at least on average. Even in the choirs that sing strictly secular songs, believers are overrepresented just from selection effects, since they sing a lot more.

But yes, there are choirs that stick strictly to secular repertoire. There was a "red" choral revival in the 70s, and of course worker and patriotic choirs go a long way back. They got to have something that unites them besides the singing, though. In my town the main secular choirs are the opera choir, which is united by their love of opera and classical music, and the chamber choir, which is 90% doctors and nurses from the local hospital.

Well, INAL, but during the legal interactions I had, none of which was in the US or got to actual trial, whenever the clients didn't follow the legal guidance of the lawyer, the lawyer was not accountable. Heck, even if you follow your lawyer's advice, the lawyer isn't accountable for the outcome. Only for the correct conduct of his practice. So I'd say, in this AI-supported court case (for speeding ticket after all), if the AI screws up I think the defendant is on its own. Or we see a follow up civil suite against the "AI" provider, which would be both, hilarious and highly interesting.
Did that actually stop Scientology? Last I checked, they still have that crazy pinky-swear-it's-not-a-gulag compound, the Sea Org is still around, recruiting via "free stress tests" is still a thing...
Hi, I have just applied for a position with you but the application page didn't have a section to add a cover letter.

Almost doubling the TDP for a 25%-30% frequency increase isn't doing most any good (appeals mainly to benchmark obsessed folks with poor sense of scale). But it's the game that marketing people have to play---so hence the 105 watt X-variants.

What is your source or personal experience for that? I don't think the typing system has any correlation. In fact you can actually type pretty fast with modern keyboard software, there are lots of shortcuts.

I type in Chinese with friends and family everyday and so do my kids. Hardly anyone uses voice messages. I find leaving voice messages on messaging systems more popular with Spanish speakers than Chinese speakers, and Spanish is one of the easy languages to write for native speakers.
The article/podcast mentions how quality hardware engineering was still valued, and used Nintendo as a specific example of success. Sony was mentioned as being outside the keiretsu system, and afaik Nintendo has never been involved with one either.

This also correlates well with my personal knowledge of the industry. Japan has a great track record of game design, but they aren't exactly known for innovation in software specifically. Some examples:

Teenagers from the UK where hired to write the code for Starfox, because they could and Nintendo's programmers couldn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to4Ekb0kXiE

Xbox spearheaded the consoles in the online space, and Nintendo is still far behind.

Japan runs circles around the rest of the world when it comes to making successful fighting games. Yet western modders are also known for coming in and fixing online play by adding network rollback.

If you don't even know what "multi-user" in a OS context means you should go back to the book's and learn actually something.
Answer - probably not.

But courts are very likely (in my view) to take a very very dim view of the introduction of some kind of barrack-room "AI lawyer". It will slow things down by introducing potentially spurious arguments which wouldn't have been made by either a represented party, or unrepresented party.

Given the courts are a public service, this isn't necessarily zero sum - unrepresented parties do take longer in court, but I very strongly suspect in the life of a whole case, parties with an aspiring barrack-room AI lawyer will take up more court time. Especially if their argument loses coherency or starts to contradict itself.
Everyone here is right.
Google Finance would be an example.
I think if you asked the engineers who designed the airbus in question, could you create a "leak" warning, using just the existing sensor suite, they'd say "sure".

You know the fuel level in each tank, and have a good estimate or actual flow data on engine fuel usage. Simple math says "leak" or "no leak".

If that would work, it is surprising it isn't in the software.
Wolfram Alpha and ChatGPT
I somehow doubt it. I tutored quite a few people of all ages who started to learn programming, mostly C, C++ and Java - they all initially have been mostly confused by the different kinds of brackets. They quickly understood where the brackets go (scopes/blocks, function calls, array declarations and access, etc.), but took some time to internalize which bracket type is used in which context.

I suspect the main reason programmers dislike Lisp syntax is that they try or see an example of some basic arithmetics, get surprised by the prefix notation that's so "unnatural" compared to the "obvious" infix notation they learned in primary school, and write off the entire language as weird, not noticing the fact that infix math is an exception in programming languages, as otherwise almost all code they write in any other language is in prefix notation too, just with a parenthesis shifted to the left.

A somewhat mind-blowing observation to some people:

(foo (bar baz quux))

foo(bar(baz, quux));

The two lines above are both in prefix notation. You can go from the first to the second one by a) shifting each left paren by one token to the right, and b) adding commas between whitespace-separated tokens.
This clause doesn't grant updated versions the authority to deauthorize prior versions.
I don't understand. How can you say it's "not practical" when it's literally being practised in the Netherlands? Which also came from a car-centric culture - and yes, does have public transport, and cars as well.
In hobbyist OS dev, I think "multi-user" just means "I implemented user accounts and file permissions and stuff". Windows, macOS, and Linux are all multi-user operating systems.
Tech often misses obvious downsides, especially human, in pursuit of unrealistic idealism.

A good lawyer is not just knowledgeable of law, but of people. He needs to get 12 people in front of him to agree with him. And he may even be actively misleading them when he's defending a someone whom he knows to be guilty. This comes down to reading people, reading reactions, and understanding what each of those 12 people needs to hear to have them act like he wants. Not coincidentally, the most common background of politicians: lawyers.

I'd argue that the most likely scenario here is not closing the divide but widening it. Instead of public defenders, poor people will just get the bot, while those of means will get lawyers. It's akin to tech support today. In the not so distant past, it was easy to get a human on the line. Now in many cases unless you're a "special" client, or get your issue on the front page of some big social media site, you get the bot. And it sucks.

I was very pleased when my parents wrote to my tutor, but she replied saying the Data Protection Act (predecessor to the GDPR) did not permit her to discuss anything.
This is covered in the article, and they apparently think that it could be legal in two out of 300 courtrooms. You've linked to just one specific court's webpage.
Please let me tell how technology has scaled technical support/customer support in favour of the customer in companies like Google or Facebook?
(a) cf https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26953443 for one aspect. It didn't do much good to have massively parallelisable logic programs without any equally massively parallel hardware on which to run them. I ran jobs on top500 machines back then, and even there coordination overheads would kill anything too fine-grained.

(b) it took a lot longer for Moore's law to end for traditional ISAs than we had been fearing, back in the 1980s. Like many things in tech, maybe Fifth Generation had just been Too Early.
The 700/92s were great, those were the ones we had at college too. it was just sad that not many programs used their extensive function keys.

I still have a hp-ux 10.20 at home for nostalgia but not the text terminals :'(
https://v2ex.com/?tab=all but you won't find most information in the article on there, because it's either assumed background knowledge or irrelevant. E.g. many of the people that the article says "aren’t household names outside of China" aren't household names in China either, which is how Ning Ken could write a book about their history that was successful enough to get an English translation. (And in case you didn't notice, the article basically exists to promote the book and get you to click that Amazon link.)

Anyways, one other thing that the West doesn't know about China's Silicon Valley is that there's no single such place, instead the tech industry is spread across several major cities. E.g. look at the places mentioned in V2EX's jobs section: https://v2ex.com/?tab=jobs

Okay so everything I said is apparently already a much more thought out rant
The only requirement for passwords these days should be that the entropy is high enough and that the password is not in password leak databases. Anything other than that is simply asking users to reuse passwords across sites or annoying people who use password managers that generate too complex passwords.

Passphrases are perfectly reasonable choices for passwords, but often run foul of the number and special character rules. Worst part is some sites even have very short max length rules for passwords. One can only suspect they either go around thinking people still memorize passwords, or worse, they store passwords in a varchar(12) DB column.

The best bet would be to eliminate passwords alltogether using some combination of webauthn key authentication and some other user friendly factor (e.g. TOTP). But as long as passwords are here to stay, make them user friendly.

It seems to be what's called a dictionary, where you have key:value pairs. So, if you show the key, you'll get back the value.

E.g.

socks = {red:3, blue:4, white:0}
Print "how many red socks left? " & socks.red
=> how many red socks left? 3

In Javascript, you use an Object as dictionary.

So, basically, the value for the key is set. Not "0th row, 1st column".

After that, the case switching for the appropriate pressed key happens.

X and Y directions of the screen are to be seen from the top Left corner (0/0).

So when you want your snake to go up you have to reduce Y by step from the actual Y value (thus inputDir.y = -1;)

InputDir is an key/value storage and get updated with the up/down/left/right step value (add 1 or minus 1 in x or y direction).

This after, the InputDir will be checked constantly by the position setter or some drawing logic in a loop.

Snake at 10/10 and needs to go to the right:
11/10

12/10

13/10

Then go down:

13/11

13/12

13/13

And back to the left:

12/13

11/13

10/13

2. How do I reduce my cost/conversion

Any help will be appreciated, thanks!
> For instance did the UK become a Software behemoth ?

Scotland did. We all know that the video games industry just exploded in Dundee about 20 years ago, but the whole area has a rich software development industry across a lot of fields.

One reason games became such a big thing in Dundee was because that's where the Timex factory where they built the ZX Spectrum was. And because that's where the factory was, everyone had one because everyone's dad knew someone who could "get" one, bypassing the usual supply chain hassles that Sinclair had at the time.
