The WallStreet Bets, NFT and Crypto ecosystem is very niche. It's also very self-reinforcing because the internet made these people find their counterpart.

The reality for most people is still very much different. I'd say zero-interest rates and negative interest rates had more of an effect on people than crypto or risky stock bets. The system was kinda getting by until western politicians went over-board during the Pandemic and started printing money like crazy because MMT and also the elite convinced them that they had enough productive capacity; so the money will not trigger inflation but trigger this productive capacity...

We know how that turned out, and now the Fed/Politicians are turning to the reality of inflation. Inflation is real, and inflation is consequence to your actions. Financial nihilism (at large) is very short-lived. Reality will catch up to you. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist (elsewhere). Many nihilistic countries are having their currencies blow up even before the pandemic and more so now.
So? It's still better than the person getting the extension but no insulation.
It's definitely the purpose of the Twitter API because it does not serve ads when you fetch the timeline.
Was short on time yesterday. Will elaborate today.

It's a little different from the abstractions, which are of course, poor but that's less important. There are two Mims camps as a rule. Those who bought the books and perhaps read them and didn't build anything and have fond memories. Then there were those of us who actually build stuff out of the books and experienced the hell that is debugging a poor design with no skills or knowledge. My entire early days of electronics were unfortunately constrained by these books. The only reason the books existed was they looked cheap, cute and simple enough for Radio Shack to sell lots of copies and use that to leverage a hobby industry. They were not quality material and in fact were quite frustrating and destructive. Throw on the dubious quality of some of the components on the market back then (fuck you Radio Shack MPF102) and it was a mess.

Regarding The Art of Electronics, I was given the first edition of this back in the late 1980s and jumped right in. Whilst light on theory intentionally, the book is actually backed up by a lot of professional experience in the industry. There is a student guide/laboratory manual that goes with it that deals with the applied side of it as well so at a basic level they should be considered together. This book turned everything around and led to an EE career.

Roll on a few years from there, I had managed to self teach away most of the nasty, learned algebra at school, jumped into theoretical side via Sedra/Smith. After that everything worked every time. I have a box of 35 year old failures somewhere I will analyse at some point. I did consider opening a YT channel for this but time does not currently allow.
Proguard is usually the tool to do that (commonly used on Android with its newest incarnation named R8).

You do need to manually annotate classes used by reflection so it doesn't remove (or obfuscate) them.

You're basically deciding whether you are okay with a higher cost for I/O or a higher-cost for interacting with the data in the buffer.

If you really wanted to verify that secure boot was enabled, and that a user wasn't doing "funky things", you'd need to also check for a TPM attestation, as you allude to - this isn't really simulating a whole lot from a security perspective.

You can fairly easily "spoof" secure boot being enabled on a non-secure-boot system, since effectively you are exposing a 1 instead of a 0 (and with secure boot off, can hook whatever you need to). Admittedly, having a button in the UEFI menu is more convenient for an end user though.

If you have a TPM attestation of the device state, PCR 7 is sealed around the secure boot state, and that would be more interesting for someone trying to lock someone in. As you say, if your TPM is then being used to attest that the system is unmodified, then that is pretty user hostile.

For a regular normal non-technical user though, having some "sane defaults" arguably makes sense - if we raise the bar on compromising a regular person's computer by a few notches (i.e. you can't just replace the bootloader with a keylogger and chain-load the regular bootloader), it can help with platform security. The problem is that, on top of that platform, end users run all kinds of (what we'd previously call) spyware/adware, which just sends their data off the system. When this "non-technical user protection" starts to get in the way of expert users, that's when it becomes more of a problem for being in control of your own system.

Interesting, three replies and all about strict types. In my own experience moving to Go from PHP downsides was exactly strict typing and (de)serialization. It is a major pain to handle variable JSON schemas, especially in verbose multi-nested objects in Go without falling back to reflections, which is faux pas there.
> Rust had a lot community content, but not a comprehensive stdlib; last checked 3-4 years ago

Still the case now (depending on your definition of ‘comprehensive’ of course). It’s an explicit non-goal of Rust to include “everything” (eg. http, crypto, random numbers) in std because of the stability promises - you can’t make breaking changes to std unless you’re fixing a soundness issue AFAIR.
Some vim plugins are slow. Fortran highlighting used to be super slow for certain use cases 10 years ago. I think there were some bad regexes. Latex documents are often long (cf other code) and the syntax rules are complex.

A friend's husband was killed by a faulty boiler, carbon monoxide poisoning. In 2015 I lived in a house where boiler ignition didn't work and you had to reach inside with a lighter. That unit was definately not sealed.

This looks pretty nice, but so do a lot of the alternatives. In trying to search for the perfect development model none of these libraries are being developed enough to find any traction, though.

Not to take away from the effort btw, but I wish they'd bundle their efforts somehow.

It's the difference between a Rust game engine like Amethyst which spent years being rewritten all the time and Bevy, which has a community and a clear focus and are just getting it done. The argument can be made that Bevy needed Amethyst to exist in order to figure out what to do, though. Oh well.
I'm a real fan of Sony audio equipment. My XM3 cans still make me smile when I turn them up. Absolutely amazing sound.
I've seen ads on Twitter that render in a more sophisticated way than tweets. For example, they include buttons.

Third party apps could implement this kind of thing, for sure. However, on an ongoing basis, Twitter would need to ensure that all third party apps had the latest ad presentation logic, and that they worked correctly, and none of the third party apps used sneaky tricks to hide the ads. After all, there's no benefit to the developers of the third-party app in hosting ads that benefit Twitter.

It would quite costly and fiddly for Twitter to administrate this, and IMO, the benefits of a third-party app ecosystem don't really stack up from Twitter's PoV.
This was the failure of the first version of the build years ago. We had positive and negative links sent via SMS in that one, which took you to a page where you could add a comment - anyone with some level of dev knowledge worried about hitting the links and certainly about commenting on the page.

The decision for us to house the whole interaction within SMS was also a response to links in SMS getting much sketchier to click. Emoji responses are more expensive to run, but they're smoother to work with and more useful for team feedback.

>go look at 2-3 houses that they finished - you pick them, don't let them pick.

Does this work in practice? How can you "pick them" without the builder telling you which houses they built? Do you expect people living in the houses to let you wander around their homes looking for contractor flaws?
I used PHP in mid-2000s, and then again in ~2017. By 2017, with the power of IDEA/WebStorm at my hands, it felt pretty much like developing a Java or a C# application: the stuff you needed was there, at your fingertips.

And I still prefer PHP docs over pretty much any other language doc.

> The media in a smaller country seems easier to control for one thing.

You have cause and effect backwards. In the UK, the media controls the government, not the other way around.
Planing long and talking big is simple, because you don't need to face the harsh reality of the actual challenge. You just define some goal, assume it's working and call it done. But when you plan short, you are already in front of the problems, and see the cracks, and must build your plan around them. This is a bit similar to how everyone can build and promise some elaborated framework, but still fails on the small important parts.

So not planing big, might be actual a hint that you are just more based in reality, than in wishful thinking. Which can be seen as good.
There's proguard, originally intended for obfuscation but also serves well for dumping unused code from your project and most importantly from third party libraries. Virtually every Android app has it in its build pipeline, or these days actually a proguard reimplementation by Google (R8) that reads proguard's rather byzantine but effective configuration syntax (you usually need to keep some stuff in libraries that talk to themselves only via reflection)
Can you give an example of a feature where the designers of go failed to consider other languages mistakes? Every discussion of there’s I’ve read has been thoughtful, open, and well cited.
For the 99% use-case, secure boot being enabled and enforcing by default shouldn't really be an issue in the last few years.

Almost all major Linux distributions (i.e. the ones with an easy install disc image you write to a USB stick) use a signed bootloader, and shim or mok or another way to validate the boot chain - the installer will boot fine, and after install, the OS will boot fine, under secure boot.

Windows since 8.0 (?) has also shipped signed - installer and resulting install will both work.

Unless you're dealing with an edge case (i.e. you want to install a non-secure boot capable Linux OS, or BSD or something less common, which isn't using a signed loader), an end user should never really encounter secure boot issues in theory. That's not to say there shouldn't be an "off" switch; but that these days there are very few scenarios where an end user doing their own OS install will hit a secure boot failure.
I get what you're saying for sure, but I think there's a level below that where you need to deliver some bad news into middle management about what's happening and it can be "career limiting" to say it, so people avoid the issue. Hopefully they gain a level of safety to deliver that message through us.
Twitter 's API was always terrible to third part apps. Snarky comments about Elon aside, it s gonna be great if they are going to be serious about opening up and keeping it up this time.
YMMV (heh) depending on make and model, but as a rough guide, mid 2010s is when cellular modems and automotive telemetry started to become commonplace
I think he’s definitely trying to look like a cutthroat, willing to strip down the company to its essentials and reintroduce a sort of startup culture. The fact that his efforts have also made Twitter and himself a bit of a laughing stock are an unfortunate side effect to how poorly and clumsily he's executed this plan.

Note: I used to say that even though I don't particularly love some of the changes Musk made, I hoped it would turn out ok and that Twitter would survive somehow. But I accidentally cured myself of my Twitter habit (waited a couple of days to see if Tweetbot would regain API access again, never restarted) so I’m just kinda indifferent to it now.

Maybe we'll look back at this and have a 100x improvement in energy use.

This resonates with me completely. I was an avid gamer in the first half of my life.

Then adulthood came and I just don't have time to enjoy games. I do watch a ton of TV shows and movies because they're easy to start up, put down, or even watch while doing something else that doesn't require full attention.

I do occasionally do a Let's Play of a game that looks promising, ideally one with little commentary, where the player focuses on the story elements rather than completion (prioritizes talking to characters over a speed run, or 100% quests completed, all collectables collected, etc).

Those are unfortunately hard to find (though I'd highly recommend the Cinematic Playthrough of Last of Us for anyone interested in experiencing the medium at its absolute best).

The nice thing about a Let's Play is that you get the story elements of the game, and can 2X speed through slow dialogue, skip action sequences as soon as they become monotonous, etc. You don't get to explore at your own whim unfortunately, but I've found it a good middle ground for being able to experience (and talk about) excellent games, while investing 10-20% the time actually playing it would take (not to mention it's free). It does tend to be more enjoyable with games that are fairly linear, rather than something like Fallout where there are thousands of ways to explore the game and align your character.

Other than that, I enjoy playing board games with friends.
This is a super interesting idea. It might muddle things like sarcasm, in-jokes (we see a lot of those around Christmas party time) and things like that. But even if it was something the user could control perhaps, it might be a great addition.

The Dangerous Quest for Identity
All I can imagine is a Pythonesque sketch of early-20th Century artists sitting at easels -- maybe stretching their canvases -- in a sports field, waiting expectantly for the starter pistol. An anticipatory quiet descends over the stadium. Paint! A frantic mixing of paint and blur of brush stokes, as the artists get underway. The crowd goes wild as the Dutch team get down their first layers of colour. Scenes of panic as the Americans trip and their easels tumble to the ground; paint and turpentine flowing over the track. The French Impressionists, who stalled out of the gate mixing Absinthe, make a sudden surge as their choices of colour and shape materialise on the canvas. It's all to play for when, all of a sudden, the surrealist cubists come out of nowhere and win by, what I think, is a nose.
Being used often for projects with cheap production budgets and being good are orthogonal concepts especially when talking about the video game industry where cobbled together middlewares for one shot development is the norm. Unity became tier 1 supported because it was widely used by indie projects. Implying the reverse is mistaking cause for effect.

In fact, Unity is actually the example I generally give of a product which is both widely used and terrible. It's better than it used to be. At some point, it was downright terrible. I remember Wasteland 2 running worse than a modern AAA game while looking like a ten years old game at launch.

To be blunt, given the new licencing terms of the Unreal engine, I don't think you should ever use it unless you are already really familiar with it.
The heat capacity of the gas depends on both mass and molecular structure. Atoms like argon have no structure, but molecules like O2 and N2 carry extra heat energy in their vibrating bond, so they have more heat capacity per unit mass.

Despite having somehow done this successfully for many years, I still find 2 weeks total for the entirety of requirements gathering, planning, designing, developing, reviewing, and testing (plus all the meetings and documentation and jira cards etc.) is kind of an incomprehensible timeline for anything but the most trivial fix.

We're building entire skyscrapers and cathedrals by gluing a few toothpicks together at a time. Because that's all there's time for in a sprint. It shows in the quality of modern software, and the never-ending updates necessary to keep them from collapsing.

Of course planning it all out years in advance and then executing blindly on those plans without ever correcting course wouldn't make sense either. But maybe a middle ground could be better than either extreme.

>"being the main source of complex products that are poorly designed/constructed"

It is also the main source of complex products of high quality. Problem is the price. Where it matters I buy industrial grade stuff for home use. It works for ages. But it also priced accordingly. Canadians with median income and below simply can not afford quality stuff.

Meanwhile, not sure about the rest of the world, but my personal impression is that in Canada general public mostly thinks that Chinese only steal, copy and produce nothing but junk and are not capable of anything else. So yes it is racist / xenophobe attitude in my opinion.
You'll need a shit load of solar panels to charge a 60kw+ EV regularly, and a shit ton of sun.

A lot of people don't own/live in a house in Europe, let alone a house with enough land for a proper solar installation

If it was that easy every single house would already be self sufficient in electricity, if you can half charge a 60kw EV battery every day you could easily run everything in your house

I'm 100% pro solar but I think people just don't understand the numbers here, with my _yearly_ electricity consumption I can only charge a 75kwh tesla battery 25 times, that's once every 2 weeks.

> So I’d say your outlook is very pessimistic and not backed by the data.

Filling am EV at a public charger in Paris already costs more than filling your gas tank. https://www.frandroid.com/produits-android/automobile/voitur...

I'm telling, people who want to make money won't change overnight. Of course that's different than trickle charging your EV in your garage but a lot of people 1 don't own a garage, 2 won't have the proper installation for a quick charge and won't have that any time soon.

I know lots of people here are 100$k+ tech worker living in fancy and sunny places but the reality is that the vast majority of people can't even afford an EV right now, let alone a 20$K+ solar instal for the house they don't even have yet.
