I also hate the minimalism of small greyish singe-color outline icons, where everything looks the same, and you don't know what it does... a grey square? A stop button? Oh no, it shows the list of already open apps... circle with an outline? Yep, everybody thinks "home" (button) when they see a circle... etc.
In fact Windows 2000 use different color pallete than 9x as it does not try to fit into the 16 color RGBI CGA palette. The difference is subtle, but significant.

I love the section on "Earning the pixels", as this is something I also put a lot of time into in extensions, from the target site itself to the options page in my extensions having per-browser CSS to make sure it fits in with the browser's own options UI (and in light and dark mode).

With Twitter, earning the pixels in the site UI is even more fraught as it's a React Native for Web app, so you really don't want to touch the app's own DOM directly, as it will most likely get wiped out on the next render.

e.g. The latest version of Tweak New Twitter [0] keeps you on the "Following" timeline, gets rids of the new "For you" tab and adds a new "Retweets" tab - to highlight the Retweets tab as active when the user clicks it, I had to add a styling hook class to <body> and use that to manually style the Retweet tab as active and override styles for existing tabs to make them display as inactive. Another layer of fun: at any point the user can change the Default/Dim/Lights out theme and the highlight colour using the Display dialogue, so I needed to figure out how to detect these changes, figure out what was now being used and re-apply them to custom UI on the fly.

As I explained in my previous article, I developed a project in an abstract way, to then allow me to create multiple products based on that base project in a matter of a few days. I will explain to you how I did it, which was my first product using this abstract project, and what I’m planning to build in the coming days.

It is quite weird to talk about all the frameworks which are built on top of CUDA eventually, but not talking about Rocm or OpenCL.

OpenAI's Triton compiles down to CUDA atm (if I read their github right), and only supports Nvidia GPUs.

PyTorch 2.0's installation page only mentions CPU and CUDA targets, therefor it's effectively all Nvidia GPUs.

While all the frameworks and abstractions could offer other back-ends in theory the story of anything ML related on the other big name in the industry, AMD, is still poor.

If anybody looses business because of bad decisions it is AMD, not Nvidia, who lead the whole industry. I am not convinced that anything will change in the near future.

For C#, it is very similar to Rust, so I would say yes. I'm too unfamiliar with the JVM and its performance characteristics to say for sure for Java, but probably also yes. However, the performance characteristics of Python are so different to Rust that I think it's safe to say a different approach will likely end up better (one that focuses on minimizing indirections and comparison function invocations).
Eveybody in this thread talks about good security practices and prevention tips, while the question of OP is basically:

This thing about them needing to pay for data out-of-pocket makes little sense if you actually live in Mexico City or know its subway. The vast majority of the line is covered by a free wifi service paid for by the government, which runs throughout the train lines and stations with only occasional interruptions. Just as passengers can use it, so too can the drivers. It even works pretty well most of the time, certainly enough of it for only modest interruptions.

Also data packages in Mexico are pretty cheap. For the equivalent of 10 dollars, you can buy enough to use whatsapp, web browsing and other social media as well as make phone calls to all of North America almost without limits for 30 days. If you're really short on cash, a package costing just 1 dollar buys you two days of the same services.

Happiness for sure is a personal concept but I think they were in general on the "we came into these lives to suffer" boat. So, I think they were not "happy" for a healthy definition of happy, but they probably not even interested in being happy.
Plants can often be understood as pumps that pull water from the ground to combine with atmospheric CO2 and sunlight to make sugars that they recombine to make more of themselves.

I think companies looking to switch to electric trucks are primarily motivated by the lower maintenance/operational cost and lower electricity cost. It's a big investment but over the lifetime of the vehicle it's worth the money. The environmental benefits are a nice plus point of course but not the main thing.

Using a hybrid, you get back a lot of the maintenance hassle and on top of that your fuel is again more expensive. It's basically most of the downsides of an ICE truck without most of the upsides of a full battery electric truck. So, the business case for hybrid trucks is just a lot more murky. I'm sure there will be some companies that will try this but the money is going to be in full battery electric.
I think the 93 year old woman with a broken hip who waited in agony 25 hours for an ambulance[0] disagrees with your opinion.

Depends entirely on what you value. Some speculative propositions:

-Some find less value in material things and worldly experiences as they age, so the expected happiness return on splurging can decline.

-Some find living by a principle of some kind (eg- humbleness and frugality) to be very fulfilling in itself.

-Some value being relatively protected from risk and misfortune, and ultimately there’s no upper limit on risk insulation.

-Some highly value being able to leave something behind to the people, organizations or causes that they love.

-Finally, these motivations can change over time and act in concert to shape the story in ways that might not be apparent when you just examine the visible surface facts.
I'm not deeply familiar with this space, but isn't training and inference on CPUs gaining some traction[1][2][3]? It's still surely orders of magnitude slower, but as CPUs get more powerful and ML frameworks get more efficient, making this cheaper and more accessible would be a major breakthrough.

It's new code, there must be some logic errors, off-by-one errors, assumptions not expressed in the code etc. But that's not saying much, all new code has issues.

The good thing is that since this code was written in a memory safe language, at least that eliminates an entire class of bugs.

> So as much as this is a fascinating piece of history and an impressive technical solution to the constraints of the time, I think modern games ought to move past it.

But why? As far as I know mega-hits like Warcraft III and it's new, updated, version, "Warcraft III: Reforged" which came out 20 years later still use that technique.

The benefits do go well beyond being able to "send" hundreds of units across the wire: a deterministic game engine allows to create tiny replay files and, very importantly, allows to find and smash bugs way quicker.

Having the next game state being a deterministic function of the current game state + player inputs is great.

What would RTS games win by "moving past" that? To do what instead? How would you then implement the replay functionality? You'd also invariably run into a class of bugs which would be hard to reproduce but which would be trivial to reproduce using a deterministic engine.

From a latency point of view you're not gaining anything either: you need to receive the other player's units position anyway. So what's the difference between receiving the hundreds of unit's position or receiving the player input that created these unit's position? Just compute them, deterministically, as soon as you get the player's input.
I estimate 8 billion people [0] are going to die of something; if we shut the economy down every time 7 million people die there will be nothing left.

Up until COVID there was a pretty good social contract going on where we'd all promised never to do the things that the authorities then went and did. 7 million deaths doesn't justify that, WWII alone was 70-80 million people lost trying to promote the opposite of the COVID response. Liberty is important. And might turn out to be a better policy depending on how bad the shock of the COVID response turns out to be (see, for example, the article).

Politicians felt they had to (or seized the opportunity to?) enact a disproportionate response to 9/11 because it’s (politically ) better to fail by going too far than not going far enough.

I suspect the same is true of covid, but how do we break the cycle? Is it innate in politics?
If you want to use a knife analogy, we're using C for prying things open, sawing up timber and opening locks. There are better tools for those jobs that don't end up in blood loss and misery.
Excellent. Die, nVidia.

I will never buy another nVidia card. They have made the firmware only modifiable to themselves. This forbids you from slowing down the card, for instance to run at a lower temperature (and prolong its life).

>600 USD/yr sounds like much less than the cost of a new electric car.

Not only, it is much more than the difference of costs.

If we assume that to buy a new EV you need only US$ 6,000[0] more than a corresponding ICE model, it makes it a 10 years investment (considering the EV lasts 10 years, and not considering interests or inflation).

It simply makes no sense financially.

[0] more likely it is much more than that, probably in the 10,000-20,000 range.

Paying Cellebrite customer here. Not government or police/law enforcement. It interesting for me in the corporate world to see software I use daily being categorized as one with human rights violations attached to it, as if the software is autonomously doing bad things. No, it’s still people. Also, for those wondering, this software is often used for litigation support (discovery), corporate investigations (employees doing bad shit of various kinds including human rights violations themselves), compliance, government subpoenas, and we have even used it to help loved ones of deceased people retain more accessible copies of phone content from the deceased. Anyway, my point is I see Cellebrite demonized a lot, but there is more than “hacking phones” to the story. By the way, the phone hacking isn’t always possible and costs an enormous amount of money. Suffice it to say so much we have never once even considered it being valuable.
I get that AWK encourages this type of code, but I would still argue it's not really "an AWK problem". It's more of a problem of how carefully you model your inputs.

Model inputs in great detail and you can throw out a lot of invalid data, but it takes longer to get the code running. Model the input only very crudely and you're up and running quicker, but more open to broken expectations.

Of course, it's way too easy to go the latter route for most programmers...

Exactly, For small-ish tools RiiR works, but not for large proven-in-use codebases. While a rewrite would probably squash memory errors you would often get logic errors because you forgot to port some condition.

This type of imagery seems to be endemic in the world of text- and image-based ActivityPub, a similar set of "mascot" images greeted me when I first installed Pleroma and was greeted by a female fox-hybrid (which I quickly removed from the server). I have not noticed any higher incidence of furries in the world of Peertube (which I've been running for years now) or Pixelfed (an Instagram clone which I've been experimenting with for a year or so) so it seems to be mostly limited to the "Twitter-alternatives" side of things. The distributed nature of these systems makes it possible for many subcultures to create their own "islands" of ActivityPub-linked nodes where furries roam the land and/or anime-avatars abound but I do feel that the prevalence of these subcultures has turned off many others from the likes of Pleroma and Mastodon because they deem them to be tainted in some way.

While it does sound like Bjarne is being a bit of a sore loser of some popularity contest, he's still right in that exactly memory safety is too specific of an idea to be meaningful in the long term. Personally, I love arbitrary memory access. I can have a Julia server running in linux, expose a pointer address to stdout, pipe it to an SDL renderer, and the whole time be confident in my ability to make it work because it's C all the way down. If these languages were half as anal as say Java about their ideology I'd be downright insulted to use them at all.

C++ is interesting because it's really anal about its semantics, which turns into a sort of anti-ideology. There's comfort in not knowing what the big picture is when the language itself also has no clue, but lets you do whatever you want anyway. The mental weight of having to track lifetimes is just exercise.

Ultimately I think there are attackers and defenders. People who don't mind getting shot and people who do. Why is Bjarne worried about what the defense has to say about him? The N.S.A. (ffs) is simply playing a way different game than, dunno, arch, clang, llvm, Forth, Mathematica, whatever. It doesn't really matter.

None of which supports the notion that Ivermectin has any effect against COVID (in isolation).

It's correlated with better outcomes in poorer countries for the simple reason that if you dose enough people with an antiparasitic drug in an environment where many people have parasites, overall health improves and a greater percentage of people are better equiped to fight off the worst effects of COVID.

Private health care professionals in the (US|UK) catering to rich internet readers will happily prescribe an antiparasitic to their patients on demand, they keep their customers happy and an antiparasitic won't kill anyone and might even help with any undiagnosed parasites.

Rich people across the world had better outcomes, they were able to isolate more, demand a higher level of hygiene from those that interact with them, afford better doctors, etc.

Properly conducted trials with sufficient ANOVA don't show any benefit for those with no parasites.

It is because Americans are notoriously rude and violent. They need a device that they can physically slam in the other person's face when ending an angry and stressful phone call - also known, in their language, as "a phone call".
