It is perfectly ok for buying simple and cheap things. I have cables, nightstand clock, extension lead, bike light, foldback clips and such nicknacks from Amazon. The same crap you'd get elsewhere, in relevant shops in your vicinity or webshops alike. One click and its there next day. Also the return experience is typically good if you run into something you don't like.

For important and quality stuff yes, people should go elsewhere.

(Ok, I had 2 pieces of important items from reliable brands from Amazon last year - e.g. Samsung SSD, not dozens of TBs though of course : ) -, but that is an exception to the rule)
The libraries can often be a bit too liberal in what they accept, so it's hard to write typings for them.
In Europe this sounds much more like tech bosses will face jail if they do not cooperate to spread government propaganda.

Tech bosses should face criticism, but the content control states enacted on platforms is against democracy and any western values. I do not believe anyone to have honest incentives that pretend they want to protect children. That is pretty much a guaranteed lie.

If so, they could start with consumer protections, here the tech industry has quite a few questionable practices. But I guess their motivation is just plain content and moderation control and little else.

As a European I would very much appreciate a reluctance to cooperate under these threats of legal repercussions. Also what do they mean with duty of care exactly?

This is standard MO for protestor handling and it is the exact reason why opsec has always been very important when organising a protest. You best believe that if the cops get involved, you are not safe anymore. This is not a lately thing - it is as true today as it was 40 years ago.

I really like the idea of having a search engine on top of podcasts. It's something you rarely listen to just sitting still (for me it's mostly during running) so I find it hard to get back to relevant bits (or find new ones). Definitely the future of this space.
Author here.

I posted this late last night (BST) and I’m shocked to wake and see it was so heavily read and discussed. Thank you everyone!

The post received some justifiable criticism for making it sound like I’m about to disappear in to the mountains to live like a hermit in a poorly thought out, idealistic middle finger to society.

In reality the change I’m making is to move to a much smaller place where I still have people and the urban environment around me, but with a much healthier balance of the things I value: family, nature, and quiet. Importantly, I’ll be a 15 minute walk from the seaside and a short drive away from the mountains - so I’ll be able to escape to them as often as I want.

I also want to find or create more meaningful work, even though this means my income may be lower.

I don’t have FU money from working at a FAANG company, so my personal runway is ~6 months. I won’t be taking significant time off.

The most ironic thing is that change isn’t immediate. It’s going to be six weeks before my obligations here expire and until then, life continues as it has done previously. As I write this comment I’m standing in a packed train on the way in to the city, but today with a little smile on my face.
Get a good architect or prefab. Hard to really control for better build quailty unless someone with knowledge inspecting on site, has connection with good crew, or adverse conditions of building in open controlled.
No matter what ends up said about the reasons, blaming vendors is a bad sign. AWS pricing is formulaic, and being “shocked” by it is an admission of being asleep at the wheel.

It's been 4 weeks since I got sick and I still feel tired and unwell, but it's not anything as extreme as not being able to take a short walk, I even did some lightweight cardio-type exercise and there are days where I can be working almost all day (pushing through). I'm not sure what I should do and I will try to research it, but I feel like I have to push as much as I can while allowing more rest (i.e. 10h/day sleep, 1h nap in the mid day) until I'm well and trying do some lightweight cardio every day and a short walk. Reading the comments I have some fears that I could make worse / permanent though.
Notes from the Book Deep Work
> Frequent checking on the work and hounding the people to fix it.

Isn't this partially what you pay your architect for? If you're willing to pay top dollar you should be able to find one that's very hands on and coordinates the whole building process as your representative.
Because you likely can quote about 100 different scenes from TOS, or point out things like "Porkins was so fat his X-Wing crashed without being shot".

Or you've read more than 1000 Wookiepedia articles.

It basically comes down to what depth you absorb of the setting. The issue is that the "campaign setting" is not props, but that's what 7-9 directors treated it like.

And even though the Jedi powers are way OP, the Gennedy Clone Wars shorts are possibly my favorite thing EVER done in the Star Wars universe.
Can't watch the video, but the thing I'm most interested in: did they make the key caps also?
It is a little worse than that: some triple glazed windows are intentionally made more opaque/green tint for 2 reasons: 1. easier on the eye when sunny outside, and 2. block up to half of solar radiation, to prevent overheating indoors
JLink is a pretty nice tool - easy to use and understand, relatively fast, big app size wins. A few misc thoughts:

Figuring out what modules you need to ship can be done with the jdeps tool, but, you have to watch out for some gotchas. One is that you have to run it on each JAR or set of jars. It's slow so it helps to do this incrementally. Another is that some critical JVM functions are implemented as 'plugins' that are loaded reflectively, and the static analysis won't find them. The one that trips up my users the most is jdk.crypto.ec which implements elliptic curve cryptography. The Java TLS stack will be present but fail to connect to many TLS servers nearly at random if this module is missing. Nonetheless it still needs less configuration than a typical ProGuard/R8/native-image style dead code elimination analysis.

JLink can replace JARs with an optimized file format called "jimage". It uses a very interesting perfect hash algorithm to minimize the number of seeks/page faults required to find a class or file and it also creates a unified string table. So the space savings come not only from deleting dead code but also reducing the space required. Unfortunately it only works for JARs that are explicitly modularized (with a module-info.class file). Slowly more modules are getting this but most still don't. A good improvement would be to use the jimage format for everything. It also does a bunch of other optimizations, for startup time and the like. Also you have to figure out which modules are modular and put them on the module path at link time. There are some build system plugins that can help with that but they mostly don't do cross-linking.

Final thing to realize is that jlink doesn't create a bundled app. It just shrinks and customizes the JVM for your app. To allow your app to start up, be installed etc requires other stuff.

Conveyor [1] has extensive support for jlink. You can name a JDK or it will learn from your Gradle build, then it'll download the JMOD files you need for each platform, run jdeps on all your JARs incrementally, figure out which modules are explicit, figure out which modules are broken and have to be put on the classpath, add back the TLS ECC support, allow you to override all these decisions via config, run jlink for each target OS and architecture, finally bundle up the results in self-updating packages for each OS and do it all in parallel. It's doing a lot of work but the result is pretty magical - you just take the JARs from your build system e.g. via the Gradle plugin, feed it to the tool and out pops a nicely optimized set of downloads with HTML download page for your cross-platform app.

True, true, i'm not. Still feel uncharitable. GP don't really know those people, and tbh i don't either, but i did go to "protests" (basically we marched through the city), and the weird activists often participated in weirder projects, and i would be surprised if most of them never cleaned a forest.

Also, those same weird activists type often made hundreds of kilometers to help clean Brittany's coasts. Not sure if those are the same as the people gluing their hand, but it wouldn't surprise me (non-violent, stupid actions are like their Motto).

Hubble can't see data, it obviously captured some light which was analysed and the scientists believe the source is black hole twisting a captured star. Then someone visualised the process that illustrates the event and that's what the pictures are.

This is also the first time the Scottish parliament has passed a law that impacted on a reserved matter (i.e. one not devolved) though. In fact they were informed well in advance that this was likely to be the case but pressed ahead anyway, so this is almost certainly a deliberate ploy by Sturgeon to manufacture such a conflict. Particularly as this new law is overwhelmingly unpopular with the Scottish electorate, given how it may negatively affect women's rights, if it were implemented.
Strange that azure is going to sell gpt while openai is also selling premium api access in addition to the generally available apis for the same thing.

Doubly strange that pricing also differs.
Nothing to sneeze at, thanks for the feedback.
That project and helium are the two crypto stuff I don’t find completely idiotic. ( or that is not finance, finance crypto “works”, too. But that idiotic too )
Can confirm, I was that newcomer. Thought the culture was perfect and thus wanted to defend it. I’m more disillusioned now and focused more on the decentralisation aspect.
The problem is that the only PoC was on APUs and the PS4, both of which had shared access to the RAM anyways making it much simpler to implement. Same is true for M1. The real trick is doing it on something that doesn't have unified memory.
You might not know if they did. A lot of health problems that our friends experienced after the shots can be hidden. Messed up periods, getting COVID repeatedly (like 3x a year), difficulty doing exercise and so on. If someone trusts you, they might talk to you about them. If you've been praising the wonderful science then they aren't gonna open up because why would they? They already know you'll tell them it's all just a coincidence and won't be sympathetic anyway.

People don’t read error messages. By this I don’t mean that no one ever in the history of the universe has, but rather that a high percentage will just contact tech support or RMA the board as broken. I can’t really blame mobo manufacturers from making the choice that minimizes tech support costs from consumers who won’t read and understand an error message.
Much like the adage that you need to be smarter to debug code than to write code, you need to be smarter to "touch up" AI generated code than to write it yourself.

The problem with AI generated code is that it contains mistakes and because of the nature of how it works, those mistakes may be entirely unlike the kind of mistakes a human would make or may be completely undetectable unless you know what the code should be doing.

The best use case for AI code generation is auto-complete. Depending on the complexity of the code, that can be sufficient to do 90% of the work of writing code, but it's very different from "solving problems" which tends to be the tricky part. It also requires the AI user to already know the code they want the AI to generate before it does it.

An interesting application of AI outside of simple code generation however is what GitHub is currently experimenting with as "code brushes", i.e. "touching up" existing code, trying to fix bugs or apply refactorings. This fits in the gap of "single shot functionality" but operates on existing code rather than requiring a blank slate.

But at the end of the day I think AI will fail to kill programming just like other attempts like WYSIWYG UI builders and COBOL have and for the same reason: competence as a programmer is not about the ability to write code but the ability to understand programs and systems, both at scale and in depth. A beginner will not write bad code simply because they lack experience in using the language, they will write bad code because they lack understanding of what the code does and how it interacts with its environment (and how that environment interacts with it in turn, e.g. UX).
I also really like Cassels' _Lectures on Elliptic Curves_, which is written very lucidly and actually describes in detail how to do a lot of the calculations that tend to be glossed over a bit by more theory-inclined authors.
It could have been measured during the trials. Give everyone regular PCR tests even if not symptomatic and measure viral load. If it's the same then it's reasonable to infer the vaccines are suppressing symptoms but you still get infected.

Researchers did eventually do that, after the vaccines had all been approved and people forced to take them. They found there's no difference in viral load between vaccinated and unvaccinated people. So reducing symptoms is now the consensus position on what they do, but that could easily have been known from the start.
It's all about the "With enough thermal headroom". If this isn't specified in the benchmark, then the benchmark is useless because you can't compare with your setup. It's even truer in laptops, but this is true of servers and desktops as well.

In addition, recent CPUs will use this thermal headroom to the limit.

> You need to first build the infrastructure to build infrastructure before you can lay the first 3D printed brick for a factory

While I disagree with the specific claim here (bricks are easy mode, sand sintered with a fresnel lens brought from Earth), for the general point you're otherwise making:

Yes, and?

Depending on which bit you're pointing at, "a few" was just for the PV for everyone, or just per manned flight. For the "million colonists" (again, no idea if that's a well thought out number) that's thousands to tens of thousands of manned flights, and 3000 to 50000 unmanned flights each with about 100 tons of payload depending on which random early stage wild guess you use to calculate from.

5 million tons of stuff from Earth may or may not be enough to bootstrap, I wouldn't know. (Does anyone?)

But your specific criticisms… don't feel like they're aware of the scale Musk is aiming for.

On a separate point:

I have read of both liquid CO2 and graphite (which can obviously be made from that) being used as lubricants, but I'm emphatically not suggesting they're drop-in replacements. Obviously one would have to design mining equipment specially to use them, likewise for thermal issues.

Given who owns The Boring Company, this is probably already being researched.

The surface of our planet is so rich in bio material that some tiny amount of mold can be found in almost all unfiltered air. Instead of trying to eliminate all of it, home builders focus on preventing it from growing. Indoors, mold often has everything it needs to grow except standing moisture, so it's important for everything to either dry out or circulate water.
We have a kid with "restrictive food intake disorder". We at one point got sent, after having gone to a therapist for a while, to the local hospitals specialised unit for eating disorders.

I was so glad, finally we would be getting some help! Even better methods to help her learn to eat more food!

What happened? They checked what she ate, calculated the nutrition in it and concluded she would not die from eating only meatballs. (This was what she mostly ate at the time). This team with 4 experts eventually said: You don't need to do anything. She will always be like this, and there is no real benefit to "forcing" her to feel ill by trying new food. (She wanted herself to try new food, but lets just say she also did not enojy it).

Now she eats what she wants, more or less. We at one point struggled to get her to widen her pallet, and as I alluded to, it resulted in many tears and almost being sick at times. This does not help make a positive thing of food, so we stopped with that.

Anyway, don't expect even "expert" help will get you anything.

.. and D&D got dropped from Star Wars. At least we have that.

See, at least the prequel trilogy of star wars had good ideas. It was just terribly executed.

The finishing episodes of GoT don't even have good ideas, in addition to being awfully written, lacking continuity, and poorly acted.

One of my favorite things was fans of the book series pointing out how Tyrion went from being the poignant observer of the universe through GRRM's eyes to simply being a sideshow dwarf that constantly said "my cock" and little else as soon as D&D ran out of book material for him. The "head vampire" trope for the NK basically meant I didn't watch the final episodes.

And Rogue One wasn't really that good, it was just "Battle Beyond The Stars", itself a cheap cash-in on the Star Wars craze, dusted off for Star Wars with some bad kung-fu movie tropes thrown in.

I'm pretty sure it didn't happen because I partitioned disk myself using diskpart and I did not create any small partition with bootloader or whatever. Just one 10GB NTFS partition and copy files from mounted ISO to this partition using ordinary explorer Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.

I've used that with few Asus motherboards (I prefer this brand) and one dell laptop. They were 2015+, so relatively modern, I guess.
You can pack arrays of NPOT elements by breaking each element into POT components and transposing. So e.g. you could have one array of 8-bit mantissas and one array of 4-bit exponents.

Agreed. What's the point of these threads? It's just a bunch of people grinding axes. Over the last year, I've rarely seen anything other than misinformation and vitriol come out of them.

These threads seem like a prime vector of ideological fracture. (And may result in people making poor medical decisions to boot.)
AutoPilot APCEM2

The only requirement is "2 channel low drift NDIR gas sensor". Cheap CO2 detectors either have zero IR sensors (instead they guesstimate eCO2 using a VOC sensor) or a single IR sensor that requires weekly calibration outdoors or it will just assume that the lowest sensor reading means 400ppm.

Literally all the additions between C++03 and C++20.

Here's a small list since you'd rather attack me than review the changelogs, it seems.

- range-based for loops.

- enum class.

- digit separators and binary literals.

- consteval/constexpr/constinit.

- std::move

- std::forward

- std::variant based mock pattern matching.

- lambdas.

- structured binding declarations.

- an ABI for garbage collection.

- coroutines.

- concepts.

C++20 even added a three-way comparison operator.

This is just a random selection.
