Well, i can think of at least one previous situation in which i'd not be confident in changing anything about it even after a month.

It happens when you're uncertain if what you're changing is going to break something that doesn't have explicit coverage or is mocked to a degree that the proposed changeset wouldn't cause the tests to fail.

I remember a company that had a spelling mistake in a central location of their code. When this spelling mistake was corrected, errors started to pop up days, weeks and months later forcing a revert of this correction several times.

So yeah, these things exist
Seconding the appreciation of Fenix. Using the official app after being accustomed to Fenix is such a let down.

True but they still managed to communicate the new timeline changes somehow. One would hope that someone could at least acknowledge an issue seven hours or so after it’s happened.

Seriously, if I could get a 21+ inch e-ink monitor even with a refresh rate on the order of 2 Hz, I'd still take it over a 144Hz @ 1080p. The added density and reduction of eye strain make it much more useful for textual work.
In LDBC, we have a separate benchmark for graph algorithms: https://ldbcouncil.org/benchmarks/graphalytics/

This focuses on untyped, unattributed graphs and includes algorithms which are often formulated following a vertex-centric programming model (BFS, PageRank, community detection, connected components, etc.). The SNB Business Intelligence already covers a few of these algorithms (BFS, weighted shortest paths) and in the future it may incorporate more.

We plan to run a Graphalytics competition in the spring (on data sets with up to tens of billions of edges) - let me know if anyone is interested in participating in this.
+1 for the strict mode. I consider it a must-have quality requirement.

I honestly don't understand why it's even optional, as being able to know what is nullable or potentially undefined is extremely important, and not having it can lead to tons of bugs.
The tricky thing is factoring death into the equation. At some point, given that we all might die on any given day, delaying gratification to save a small amount of interest isn't worth the risk. But of course that's hard to calculate.

Also, if you wait to buy something then you have less time to enjoy it, so it is theoretically worth a bit less to you.
You run into the oracle problem, that is, how can you be sure that your, eg, coffee is actually a dark roast that hasn't been placed in the wrong bag. The bag can be tracked, sure, via barcodes and such, but the tracking of the material inside is fundamentally separate from the container that holds it.
And there's no such thing as terrorism during a war! Did America terrorize civilians in Serbia during the bombing - it surely did! Did it declare war on Serbia? Certainly not!
The anticorrelation is mostly on longer timescales. Winter vs summer for example. On a daily or hourly basis the anti correlation is pretty much non existent and it's on these timescales that you would time shift demand. A quite common occurence in Europe is that large parts of Europe during winter have almost non existent air pressure differences for days or weeks on end. During these times neither wind nor solar is very helpful and other solutions are needed, not all European countries have the pumped storage capacity for that. LNG to the rescue I suppose, now that Russia is limiting supply.
Would it be possible to use GPT model infrastructure to compute the likelihood that a given text was created by that GPT model?
> By that measure, every other company is grossly overstaffed.

Recent layoffs across a big chunk of the tech industry suggest this argument may have at least some truth in it.

> that company you say is more appropriately staffed contributed to a genocide that left tens of thousands dead

Contributing to a genocide has nothing to do with staffing levels and all to do with unhealthy incentives - the company makes its money on "engagement", and it turns out polarizing/divisive/violent/outrageous content generates a lot more of it than friends/family/cat pictures, so effectively moderating toxic content is actually against their bottom line and is only needed in extreme cases where the toxic content's negative PR impact outweighs what it will bring in "engagement".
Sounds good, we may participate. Will you be adding larger graph datasets to the list?
Paizo's website has been hugged to death, so it's fair to say they're getting a lot of attention...
My biggest fear with TS is people forgeting why TS exist in the first place and stop trying to solve the problem TS solves because it's already solved. It's not solved, TS is by far the best option, but its far from being ideal. Deno coming out of the box with TypeScript support and the JavaScript Type Annotations Proposal [1] gives me faith that we will grow past TS.

The largest, most painful and apparent issue with JS related build tools is that they change and break. Frequently.

And no, `package.lock` is not enough of a solution, because you will have to update dependencies at some point. Congrats, you now have multiple moving, breaking parts in your dependency tree that throw the weirdest and unrelated errors. So you're hunting down github issues, workarounds and patches, while still not really knowing what the problem was. The bonus here is that you need to remove these workarounds at some later point because your build tools and libraries have fixed the issues, so your code breaks again with very fun error messages or just straight up opaque and weird behaviors.

At some point we have to ask why we're doing this to ourselves. It's not fun at all.
Nothing has changed in years. Ubuntu should never be used in production!
True.

Then I would counter with:

We traveled 1/2 of the way, so we still have 1/2 to travel.

Since we travel at constant speed the 2nd half of the entire way cannot take longer to travel than the 1st half of the entire way.

So each subdivision can NOT ADD more time than the previous 1/2 interval.

So we have an upper bound on time, since time can never be larger.

So while we do have an infinite amount of time intervals, the sum will never grow, it's upwards limited.

But since each "parent interval" is upwards limited, it's irrelevant to how many "child" intervals you subdivide it as the parent time interval is always upwards limited.

So no matter how many times you subdivide, the TOTAL TIME never grows, thus time is not infinite.
He shills diet, sleep and exercise, and maybe circadian stuff. What are you referencing here? The ad sponsors?
In that case I agree.

I can assume one of the primary reasons for cutting staff and offices is to reduce costs and hopefully get cash flow positive asap even if it’s $1 positive. That puts him in a better position to stop incurring debt.
ElevenLabs dev here - we believe this is a 2 step process and agree it is needed!

First, we want to the quality you get out-of-the-box to already by brilliant by taking context into account. Granted, that gets you sometimes 98% there and are working to add manipulation possibility to get you to that 100%; for long-texts though the quality you get is great.

For second part, currently TTS providers give complicated toggles that frequently don't affect the speech in the way you want. Initially we are adding a basic SSML-like support and have a more robust language-based idea which we hope will come over the next few months!
I think the argument is that its easy to get out of control and leave yourself exposed.

If you have discipline then I don't see any problems. I might behov the industry to be forced to do more stringent credit checks before allowing it either by law or regulation.
You are late to the game. Netflix was a game changer in the 00s for both DVD and streaming. Sometime around mid 2010s they started losing access to content as the streaming wars started (losing The Office to Peacock was a major blow to them for instance). Now they are their own publishing house but that limits the content to their primary demographics (my kids love netflix fwiw)
The Pulse 15 Gen 2 is actually a refresh of the Tong Fang (not Clevo) PF5NU1G (that fixes most of the major complaints I had with the original version (multi-monitor support, better & brighter display, dual M.2 slots). I was quite happy with mine, as were almost all the user reviews I read (Here's mine: https://github.com/lhl/linuxlaptops/wiki/2020-MECHREVO-Code-...).
When I look at BBC iPlayer, the gems seem like things I've already seen on Netflix, and the rest is yet another small town police murder mystery or just outside my taste (like the British personality shows, all the house fixing/flipping).

Where BBC really shines is that a 6 episode story isn't stretched to 2 seasons à la Netflix.
If there's 0% interest, you might be better off buying the camera now rather than in 12 months when the price has increased.

> All the silencing of journalists, banning accounts for saying "mastodon", or saying anything negative about Tesla, or criticizing Musk in any way, that didn't do it.

Not all of this is accurate. Sure, hating on Musk for banning linking to Mastadon is legit, but there isn't a ban on criticising Musk, there are countless accounts with tens of thousands of followers happily ranting about how evil Musk is. Similarly Tesla.

Also, if you're talking about the Thursday Massacre aren't they all reinstated?
Memex Design Principles
Rescript and its standard library Belt are great. I have been using BuckleScript/ReasonML/Rescript since 2018. It gives better guarantees than TypeScript and has a stronger focus on the functional approach to problems. The only drawback is it has less documentation than TypeScript, and you will likely have to write bindings for JS libraries you want to use.

That’s an entirely separate concept from dev velocity. FWIW I like the name in economics, and can’t immediately think of a much better one.
Not this time, the largest data sets are going to be graph500-30 and datagen-sf10k-fb. They have 17B and 9.4B undirected edges, respectively.
I'm 30 and never had a credit card. Always felt like an extra layer of complication I don't need. I have enough money, I'd prefer to directly spend it. With a credit card there'd always be a nagging feeling some payment would be missed or something would go wrong and all of a sudden I'd be hit with interest charges.
But for most of the time, the marginal cost of electricity is the same across the UK. The transmission network is not usually maxed out, and this means that generation anywhere can meet supply anywhere for minimal cost.

Consumers already pay per-unit electricity costs which are fixed over a billing period, regardless of whether gross prices exceeded the consumer price, or dropped below zero, for small intervals during that period. So it wouldn't really make any sense to charge different prices in Scotland and England, only for the periods when they actually diverged due to lack of transmission. And if this occasional discrepancy was averaged over a billing period, it would probably be much too small to really affect demand.
Yes the final run, establishing the record, costed $242. I would love to know what the total compute costs for this project was. In real world situations, you run this query daily, or at least multiple times to fine tune it. The point still stands that I can't afford to run on this type of hardware, as it is too expensive, nor do I have such heavy workloads, so these results are not relevant.
Any thoughts on the LG DualUp [0]? It looks quite interesting for portrait mode work, but I've held off from purchasing due to the... unusual aspect ratio and the fact that it'd be rather difficult to use for watching video content.

I don't think so. Is there any evidence? Selective maybe in that you choose to spend time on something particular and not something else and then that something else doesn't improve as much. I wouldn't think there is an actual decrease.
I agree that it's stupid to finance everything.

However some big things make sense to finance.

Take your car example: I'm not rich enough to buy a car that won't break down every year (I know, I tried).

However, when my car breaks down, I can't go to my clients and I lose money.

In this case, it makes sense to rent out a car that's going to be working properly, and with guarantees in case it doesn't.

However yes, I wouldn't buy a toaster in multiple payments...

How dare people care about the functionality of a service. Only moral judgements are allowed.
The article is an extended admission of series of bad decisions leading to problems so bad they feel they need to switch programming language to try to patch up after. If there were not fundamental problems they have failed to address adequately for years, none of this would even be under discussion.

It is face-saving to blame the programming language, but we should not be fooled. Canonically, the good craftsman does not blame the tool.
whoever said that javascript was a simple version of java? the two languages have almost nothing in common - at least a unicycle and a bicycle share the concepts of "wheel" and "pedals".
Admittedly there being a big right wing social media would be an interesting change. Curious to see how it goes (from a distance as I don't use twitter).
You can't announce anything if you've fired the comms team.
IMO the big advantage of languages like Go in this space is that you can ship a binary to your users and that will Just Work™. Shipping a Python tool tends to be significantly more complex either for your users who will have to set up Python + dependencies, or for your build (e.g. the Python AWS CLI just ships an entire Python environment, which is a "solution" of sorts I guess, but it's not very easy or simple to do).

I don't think Go has to increase more friction in the dev workflow, but it probably does require a little bit (one-time) more effort to get it right.
The purported proof of the four color theorem has been retracted
That doesn't make sense. Most electricity is consumed in the South-East. Generating power in Scotland means that most of it has to be transmitted across the length of the UK, whereas generating it in the South-East means that it doesn't place such a burden on the transmission network. Therefore, it makes sense that the Scottish generators are charged more for use of the grid.
It's sometimes an emergency loan to get your car fixed or to get a replacement car, so that you don't get fired from the job you drive to, so that you have enough money to continue paying for a roof and food.
This is interesting - can you expand a little or provide a link. I get a-b links, but where do father and son come in?
Doing this requires a fair amount of development time, especially when you can break something else with this and you previously removed all the guardrails.
That's 5 years of updates to the firmware. Not the OS. You configure it with something like Ubuntu LTS and you're good until 2032 with regards to OS security updates. And I wouldn't be surprised if the 32.04 LTS ran on it too whereas a comparable MBP will have been dropped by a couple years prior.
The largest pumped hydro facility in the world is Fengning in China, at 40GWh, and the second largest is Bath County in Virginia, at 24 GWh. Dinorwig's 9GWh is really not too shabby. Even Fengning would only power the UK for just over an hour. This is simply not the same order of magnitude for the storage you'd need to make it through a gray UK winter on renewable energy alone.

What's the longest period without wind and sun you're willing to provision for before you give up and tell the population they'll have to do without electricity for a bit? A day, a week, a month? Numerically, how much storage would that actually need? How many stations, how big? You'd need over a hundred Fengnings to power the UK for a week. Where would they go? I'm all for renewables + storage but you can't handwave these questions as FUD, it's a serious problem.

I suspect that if we committed to categorically eliminating fossil fuels, including peaker plants, the first time the lights went out because the weather was bad you'd have people clamoring to build nuclear power plants. Statistically, it'll happen at some point no matter how much storage you provision.
OED = Oxford English Dictionary. I had to look that up, FYI for anyone else.

I definitely want a nice large dictionary. I have my eyes set on my parent's copy that I'll get one day, but multi-volume? That's interesting...
This is something that needs to be read when fully awake and, probably, with a dictionary nearby! I admit that I gave up with the opening spiel quite quickly -- I'll have another go later -- and skipped to "The Rules"; many of which I don't necessarily agree with, but perhaps I'm too mired in technical writing. (I have a feeling they'd give the Plain English Campaign people a heart attack!) There are some gems in there, though. This superluminary rant made my morning, for example:

18. All these vapidly doctrinaire injunctions—urging you to write
only plain declarative sentences stripped of modifiers and composed
solely of words familiar to the average ten-year-old and demanding
that you always prefer charcoal-gray to sumptuous purple—are
expressions of everything spiritually deadening about late modernity
and its banausic values. They reflect an epoch in which the
mysterious, the evocative, and the beautifully elliptical have been
systematically suppressed and nearly extinguished in the name of the
efficient, the practical, the mechanical, and the starkly
unambiguous—in short, in the name of everything that makes existence
uninviting and life boring. They are reflections of an age of
bloodless capitalist economism, the reign of brutally common sense,
the barbarian triumph of function over form, a spare, Spartan civic
architecture of featureless glass and steel and plastic, a
consumerist society that lives on the ceaseless production and
disposal of intrinsically graceless conveniences. Learn to detest
all of these things and you will be a better writer for having done
so.

Ah! Yes, since they rolled out the For You/Timeline things, the apps tend sometimes to revert to For you randomly for no reason...

To illustrate:

Say you have a collapsible menu (Burger etc.) which you just implement with a simple CSS based toggle. You open the menu and then navigate to a different page (via htmx). All good. But now your back button will break because it will send you to the previous page but with the menu open.

In this particular case it's _kind of fine_ depending on your navigation concept and design. It might even be a feature! But this behavior just proliferates little workarounds and caveats and can lead to surprising UI bugs, especially if you need some state management in-memory etc.

So htmx is great the less JS you use on top of it, except you are very aware of how it operates and how you interact properly with it's events. It's a very well designed and small library overall - with caveats.
I recognise your sarcasm and that you're joking but I hope that as a community we can start to move away from misogynistic jokes like these in the coming years.

The internet isn't young anymore. There are millions of people using Bing right now. There also wasn't any thought when people incorporated the like button in social media.

Ah, David Bentley Hart.

To propose a list of rules for writers is probably a very presumptuous thing to do. The only authority it can possibly have is one’s own example, and so offering it to the world is something of a gamble. One has to assume that one’s own writing is impressive enough to most readers to provide one with the necessary credentials for the task. If one is wrong on this score, issuing those rules will invite only ridicule. I mean, for goodness’ sake, Steven Pinker (of all people) published a book on style. How can anyone take that seriously?

Few writers do such a fine of job of puffing themselves up while at the same time cutting others down.
