> Unfortunately git rebase completely breaks (2)

I’m not sure I follow the logic? What is it about rebase that makes sharing difficult? Isn’t rebase just a merge strategy? And if you have code in a branch, and you share that, it doesn’t matter about the merge strategy? Or am I missing knowledge/misunderstanding something?
the implementation in the article is basically what Golang is.

and the question: "so much manual/repetitive work, why do this"... is still valid.
I think the idea is that in a branch after a rebase, you have “main” with your new branch commits on top. This is exactly what it’d be like after merging to main, so you can test the branch with a high degree of confidence it’ll work correctly after merging.
The author has a very limited understanding of Buddhism - and as he even mentions, he has not studied Vajrayana, the higher levels of the teachings. Therefore he doesn’t really have a clue and frankly is just intellectualizing about what he does not actually understand. There are MANY completely incorrect portrayals of what Buddhism is about in those essays - based on his many wrong views and limited knowledge. This is a case of someone who failed to overcome the delusions of their own mind and instead decided to let it write essays about why that failure is not actually a failure. Nice try, but just digging a deeper hole in Samsara.
Your worth isn't determined by how much money you make or how many friends you have. You're a unique, thinking being that is experiencing reality. Your value is that you exist, you're something as opposed to nothing.

If other humans see you as being valuable, that's great. but that has nothing to do with who you are.
This isn't the same as "if you don't like the movie, don't watch it". It's more like "if you don't like traffic cops, don't be on roads".

Yes, it is technically achievable by some measure, but nobody living anything resembling a reasonable life is going to avoid ever going in public.

It's also fine for people to want different things to be acceptable or not in different circumstances; I am fine with adults wearing swimsuits at the beach, but would be uncomfortable if they went to my child's kindergarten class in them.

Figuring out the trade-offs and coming up with compromises is the whole value proposition of society.
Another corporation embracing the hyperaggressive narcissistic ethos, as if there are nothing else - no other stakeholders, no goodwill, no future, no community, no employee value, no public image etc. - besides making money now. Hasbro is being pressured by investors to monetize their IP more.

It matches the authoritarian, anti-democratic, drive for power in another domain (and often by some of the same people). Nothing else matters.

I think we have been talking past each other to some extent. What you are defining as OOP is not what I think of as OOP. The concepts that you are referring to as valuable I agree with, I just think they are independent of OOP.

I have previously worked on very large C code bases (10m+ loc) that were well written. I haven’t worked with the Linux kernel, but the “SOLID Principles” and “modifiable and extensible subsystems” certainly were evident in these code bases. You claim that this form of programming came as a result of the study and practice of OOP, but I think this cannot be right. The ideas pre-date this. These code bases, pre-date this. Much of the literature from the 70s covered these topics.

I think what happened through the later 90s/early 2000s was that OOP was universally embraced, but without theoretical backing. C programmers picked up C++ (I was one), without really understanding, and the result was a mess. From there I think good practices were rediscovered, not invented. I don’t credit OOP for the good practices, although I don’t disagree that some truly new things have been learned.

However, I still have to deal with the poor practices within OOP. Developers inherit all the time for convenience. Rarely do they think in terms of interfaces/contracts at the modular level (why is this class public? *shrug* why isn’t this class sealed? *shrug*) It’s this sort of thing that makes me annoyed at OOP. To this day, developers still sometimes think of every class they write as being a “reusable” component, and this I lay at the feet of OOP.

Classes and Objects are sometimes useful. That’s what I think of as OOP, and that’s the bit that I don’t see as very valuable.
I gave you the data that shows your claims of generational wealth trickling through to an entire race of people, are false. You haven't addressed that.

You are the one making the argument that we need racial discrimination to right past wrongs. I gave you the reasons that is not only immoral, but unworkable. So if you have some method to make your vision of present & future racial discrimination a net benefit for society, I would like to hear it. Logically it isn't possible, so I'm curious to hear your proposed solution.
The D&D rules aren't free software, and WOTC has branding concerns that free software projects don't have. The intellectual property issues here are somewhere between those of Mickey Mouse and those of Linux.
In that model, would it be reasonable for another agency (company, PE, billionaire with an axe to grind) to come along and buy them and then raise the prices to rent seek on Apple?

You appear to be arguing that larger companies shouldn't be able to secure their supply chain and instead be forced to follow the whims of the market as companies go in and out of business forcing the larger company to either (a) build it in house or (b) keep redesigning every time something changes.
This is already having an effect on the community, as people like The Arcane Library (https://www.youtube.com/@TheArcaneLibrary) are shifting away from using/referencing the OGL despite having pre-prints of material using the OGL.

I also find it interesting that WotC/Hasbro have been silent so far (both regarding releasing the official OGL 1.1 or making a statement about the leak to correct any factually incorrect statements).

> THE FAROES ARE ONE OF THE RICHEST COUNTRIES in the world by per capita GDP—even slightly richer than Denmark itself.

The Faroe Islands are a strange place. There aren't many people, yet you'll see huge infrastructure projects to literally drill tunnels through mountains to connect at 2-3 families with the main roads. A gigantic amount of public money gets pumped into every part of their industry and infrastructure, funded by Denmark.

On a completely unrelated note, the the wife of the previous prime minister is from the Faroe Islands, and he has been known for being bad at separating private and public interests, and for cases of pumping money into specific monopolistic fishermens pockets while taking huge donations from the same to his own funds. The two of them also own a company that plans tours from Denmark to the Faroe Islands.

He's no longer prime minister but managed to create a central party that was key in establishing the current government. I'm sure we'll see a continuation of pumping money into the Faroe Islands.

All that said, it's a lovely place to visit, especially for people who enjoy hiking and don't mind damp weather, and there's some cool places to see puffins.

For deep learning I'm going off the article's benchmark suite tests vs the 4090: https://i0.wp.com/chipsandcheese.com/wp-content/uploads/2022...
I think it hit a low point during and just after 2020. I would guess it's slightly better now just based on my few visits there. For sure there is a ton of daily cleaning going on now on the side walks which helps just lifting up the entire perception of the street. It was smelling of urine constantly, now it's not nearly as bad any more.
As long as you aren’t severely memory constrained or trying to do tasks that only take a few ms, it’s totally fine. It’s even desirable in a lot of cases. You can do a lot of tasks in about the time it takes python, or faster if it’s a parallelizable problem.

Zero Utils: Why utility wants to be additive
The driving motivator is just greed, nothing else. Growth is not per se required to run a successful company for a long time, that is just plain myth. Nor is growth a guarantee to survive for a long period of time. It may increase the chances to stay afloat, but that highly depends on the circumstances. Also, as soon as you make growth the main motivator to run a company you are opening yourself up to go bust, inherently so.
These “d&d” podcasts seem to basically be playing rules-light systems with a some d&d styling, I bet if WoTC tries to really enforce anything they’ll say “switched to dungeon world” and that’ll be the end of it. It would probably be a more accurate reflection of the play style anyway. (I mean d&d is great because most people aren’t, like, professional voice actors and improv pros, the structure that Critical Roll and their ilk don’t need is why us normal people might want the system in the first place!)

I’m mostly worried about the folks posting settings and adventures on drive through RPG, it seems like they have a ton more exposure. :(
Not that related to tech but I remember people were interested in an earlier post about problems with infinite utilitarianism.

Free high quality schools, robust safety net, many technology companies, eastern angst that doesn't allow soul to settle, etc.
Closest I ever got to Japanese computers was using an IBM JX in primary school. That's a variant of the IBM PCjr – the biggest difference is, unlike the PCjr, it had a proper keyboard, and by default 3.5-inch floppies rather than 5.25-inch. It was primarily sold in Japan – but also to schools in Australia and New Zealand. The Australia/NZ model was missing the extra memory and Kanji-specific display hardware that the Japanese model came with. http://nerdlypleasures.blogspot.com/2021/03/ibm-jx-ibm-pcjr-...

One other (even bigger) way in which Japanese computer technology influenced Australia, was that Fujitsu had a lot of success selling their clone IBM mainframes here in the 1980s/1990s. The university I went to – and later became staff member at – had used one. By the time I joined the staff, it had already been thrown out, but I remember discovering all this evidence of its past existence left behind – masses of tangled bus and tag cables under the data centre floor tiles, a storeroom full of 9 track backup tapes, etc.

Fujitsu's mainframes mostly didn't run MVS (although they could), they ran OSIV/MSP, Fujitsu's "clone" of MVS with significantly reduced licensing costs. However, the reason why it was cheaper, is it wasn't actually a clone – Fujitsu had illegally stolen the source code to MVS from IBM. They tried to cover it up by doing things like changing the copyright notices (apparently they forgot a few though), and they also renamed a lot of the OS modules and commands – the modules of MVS' timesharing component, TSO, mostly start with the prefix IKJ, Fujitsu renamed them all to start with PDE instead; they renamed the IBM catalog management utility, IDCAMS, to KQCAMS; etc–which meant most MVS software could work, but only after a bunch of search-and-replace changes to its code. IBM saw right past this feeble cover-up attempt, and Fujitsu (and Hitachi too, which did the same independently) ended up paying IBM many hundreds of millions of dollars to settle the resulting lawsuits. That was likely one of the factors resulting in Fujitsu pulling out of the mainframe market in Australia, and most of its customers either went to non-mainframe platforms (UNIX/Windows/Linux), or else to IBM's mainframe operating systems (MVS / OS/390 / z/OS). Fujitsu's mainframe OS and hardware still survive in Japan, but are stuck on 31-bit – they never made the investment which IBM did to add 64-bit support (with the release of z/OS in 2001).

I don't think so, and even if that were the case you've described the locations where a huge portion of SFs population lives.

I currently live in Haight, it's nearly just as bad as those you listed. I'm on Divisidero right now, there is poo everywhere and I can see needles in some gutters nearby.

The areas where there are only single family homes are fairly clean, but anywhere people actually go when they leave their homes is filthy.
What can be a crime? If you’re in a public space (and not the legal definition of public —- a mall is considered a public space despite being privately owned) you have no legal expectation of privacy. Period. End of story. There are very good reasons for this, despite the fact in creative tiktokers are definitely exercising the bounds of the law.

Of course if the content somehow slanders or misrepresents someone, that’s another issue.
"got greedy and made high risk investments? Can't Google or some company just make their own stablecoin"

Interesting that you contrast "greedy" with "Google". Why would Google want to ruin its own profits by investing in what you call "low risk crap"?

The problem with "low risk crap" is that it pays low interests. If Google were to invest in "low risk crap" then that would drive down Google's margins and profits. This is the opposite of what investors in Google want.

If Google could make large profits running a stablecoin, then they already would have set it up.
Should be a no brainer though. And it is not a complex political thing. The grid operator can do it. There must be many triggers for turning off parts or all of it. The UK turned 10% of the grid off last year I think to preserve the frequency.
I completely agree with GP in that Elixir isn't really _designed_ for CLI tools, but I agree with you that it does happen to be great for it. I don't doubt there are some facilities it lacks that would make ones life easier, but overwhelmingly its standard library is more than sufficient.

tether, at no point in its history, has pretended to claim a 1:1 ratio of tether to actual dollars received or in reserve. They regularly mint huge chunks of coin and give them to exchanges under legal agreements that have nothing to do with cash transfers.

While I agree with you in principle, that ship sailed years ago. Most countries, the US especially have defacto no privacy laws or limits on information gathering. I'm just glad it's finally being used for something that might help the average, reasonable citizen.
> Quiet quitters have been called slackers and coasters. They’ve set boundaries, demanded work-life balance, and steadfastly stuck to their job descriptions. But make no mistake, this isn’t a passing TikTok trend.

I fail to see how this is a problem. If you want your employee to do more than what the job description asks of them, or to sacrifice work-life balance you better be ready to pay up, and not with some snacks in the office, but with actual cash.
Btw guys, if anyone here would want to join the project as a developer, I am open for all proposals and fresh ideas to implement!
In past USDT depeg to around 0.9$ for short time. This is very unlikely to be the case since even if they are insolvent they have a reserve.
You probably think that way because of LUNA crash which was backed by almost nothing. For example in defi stablecoins with issues do not depeg to zero or anywhere close to zero if they are still backed to some extent.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. Two questions:

Does this make a backup of an existing set of .files?

I recall TI Professional PCs were repurposed as terminals in the TI factory in Bedford (UK) as late as 1991, and I'd guess other TI sites were also using them for the same purpose at that time.
> Where is the line between a game depicting discrimination and the game material being discriminatory?

One bit of context here to keep in mind is that there have been tabletop releases that have been incredibly clearly on the far side of that line, wherever you might define it - think "literal Nazi propaganda packaged as an at least nominally playable game". I haven't personally seen any use the OGL 1.0a specifically, but there are probably some out there.

Of course, since the OGL 1.0a doesn't imply any particular business relationship with WotC or allow any special association with the D&D brand, any "need" to actually police the OGL 1.1 like this is basically just self-inflicted from how they're conflating what were previously two separate agreements (one for mechanics, one for branding).

There is a story I heard of a fibre team in NZ who spliced inside their work van because it was raining.

SF is now so bad that people don't feel safe walking to their offices there. In the peninsula and south bay that is almost never the case.

However, this is not fundamentally about SF versus other areas. The real point of this Twitter post is to show how low demand is for office space. It's low everywhere, because it's hard to get funding to start a company when everyone is expecting a recession to start any time now.
Bro wants to have a 20-person team on pre-seed funding.

I feel like pre-seed funding should support or be for 4ish people tops. Around the max number of co-founders.

Not all games and other material published under the OGL references/uses the WotC SRD (System Reference Document) or D&D material (beholders, magic missile, etc.).

The music, games and movies are very much similar from times of old (you might like it, you might not, you might just be getting old, that's the part that never changes or causes alarm). It's social behavior that's peculiar - in a bad way.

> Which is know to be a very bad design.

If your abstraction leaks that the implementation is a local call, and then you try and change that later, unquestionably. Again, you need to avoid leaking implementation details, which is too why you can't just add a try operator and make it automatically useful. Any leak of any kind in your abstraction will make life miserable later. Don't let your abstraction leak.

> Yeah, and it avoids all the hassle.

All it does is move where the code is located, placing the onus on the producer "the producer is always right" instead of the caller "the customer is always right". You don't actually avoid anything, just change the perspective.

> Why couldn't any language (and especially Go) just do the same?

Perhaps it could, but it requires that the language take a more macro look at the problem. It is not a microfeature.
