A more apt analogy might be doing maintenance on their fire sprinklers to get them functioning after their home has caught fire.
Ahhh fair enough, that makes sense since it otherwise looked pretty polished and fun. I am curious what the missing parts were, but a chunk of missing content is maybe easier to deliver than a fundamentally broken or un-fun primary game loop
One use I've seen of it knowing who is talking is that it can attribute items added to a shopping or todo (or other) list with the name of the person who added it.

Beyond that, I'm not at all sure what scenarios it uses that data for.

Great interview, thanks for sharing. I don't doubt that he wants things to change. When I refer to the Competition Bureau being feckless and captured by industry, I suppose the conclusion is correct but it should be applied upstream of the Bureau, with the lawmakers themselves enforcing the fecklessness, due to being captured by industry.

Thanks for sharing!
There are a lot of reasons that I do not like Shorts on YT but the biggest one is that hotkey controls for Forward-scrub Back-scrub etc. are either different or simply not available.

Why on earth would they bifurcate the UX like this?!!?!
I don't like Init methods because they permit the creation of invalid objects. Instead, either throw an exception from the ctor or use a factory function that can either return a T or an error.

I'm curious what weaknesses of shared_ptr you've found. With the addition of weak_ptr and enable_shared_from_this, they're a pretty versatile tool.
I thought that's the old blurb. In the article they specifically mention they want to work on CSS2:

> The focus for 2023 is to improve the situation of the layout system in Servo, with the initial goal of getting basic CSS2 layout working.

But seeing another comment in the thread, it looks like that was the last thing the developers that will be sponsored were working on anyway, so it makes sense to pick up where they have left off.
Are cities too reliant on Twitter?
Heh, I would be delighted to eat my words this way
> Not sure what else you'd mean by 'earphone remotes'.

Basically every remote that is on headphones with a cable. Apple devices can nearly all be controlled by e.g. the remote of EarPods, from iPod to iPhone, even MacBooks with 3,5mm plug support these controls:

vol+ [upper button]
play / pause [middle button]
vol- [lower button]
next [double tap play]
previous [triple tap play]
fastfwd [double tap play AND hold on second tap]
rewind [triple tap play AND hold on third tap]

Unfortunately Apple uses CTIA specs and most non Apple devices use OMTP - so EarPods do not work the same way on Android devices and Android apps often do not support all of these shortcuts.

https://thecablesland.com/ctia-vs-omtp/

Apple really did a good job for the controls, but the hardware (earpods) are really poor quality compared to similar priced in ears (e.g. house of marley or soundmagic e50c).
Really for me just the mantissa would be fine; no need for exponent bc so much of what I worked on is between 0..1

There was an interesting paper from the Allen Institute a few years ago describing a system with 1 bit weights that worked pretty well! Since I read it I've been musing on trying that, though it seems unlikely I will be able to any time soon.
Solving leetcode-style puzzles should be fun. At least some of the harder ones. Treat them like fun. Even if you do one a week your skills will remain relatively sharp.
There's the hope that this is just a stopgap measure from Intel to deal with AMD and Apple competition, and power demands go back to normal once Intel had time to push a couple of architecture improvements through the pipeline.
“ High on the ML punch list is how to run models more efficiently using less power, especially in critical applications like self-driving vehicles where latency becomes a matter of life or death.”

Never ever heard of inference latency being a bottleneck here…
In hindsight, the idea that ambiguous text-based parsing with in-line delimiters was considered a hallmark of a "simple protocol" is quite silly. Yes, such protocols are simple to implement for the happy path - it certainly made sense back when people primarily interacted with networks through the shell or a REPL. But it's clear that a sound and scalable wire format designed today should use binary encodings for compactness and performance, explicit lengths instead of delimiters for variable-length data to avoid the complexity of escape sequences, and fixed-length fields placed before variable-length fields to minimize memory allocation churn.
At this rate, we're going to end up with FP1 (1-bit floating point) numbers...

I guess that's nonsensical. 1-bit in all FP is the sign bit. So I guess the minimum size is 2-bit FP (1-bit sign + 1-bit exponent + 0-bit implicit 1 mantissa)
Glad folks liked the story I tapped out with my thumbs while waiting for my coffee order. I added it to my journal in case someone wants to share it 24 years from now: https://www.gregkogan.com/journal/stoop/
I’m not an expert in it either, but this problem is similar to both the N-queens problem and Sudoku, both of which can be solved via SAT, so tutorials for those should be a good start. Good luck!
I should add that using regular queries with Apollo, URQL, etc. is perfectly fine. If you're building an app that requires realtime data then `@live` queries can be really useful. The data can update in realtime without refreshing and there's no need for WebSockets!

There are limitations to server-sent events, but `@live` queries is a perfect fit imo.
Some human therapists record sessions digitally. Obviously the scale is different so it still may be a concern, but having the information somewhere that could persist forever was already a potential hazard even before bringing AI therapists into it.

> Ducts are dead.

Ducted heatpumps are a thing here in NZ and make sense to me, not that I have used one. The heatpump sits in the roof and air is pushed into three or so rooms through ducts.

If building a new house I think ducts would be the way to go.
> Musk, for example, has pulled $40b out through Tesla stock sales in the past couple of years. Those are real assets.

Then your future salaries are also real assets, and should be counted for your net worth. The same argument applies, you can take out loans against your future earnings and spend it, so it is a part of your current net worth, right?

You say that maybe you get into an accident so you can't work? Same logic applies to stocks, something might happen and nobody wants to pay for them anymore rendering them useless.

So to make the comparison fair you have to be consistent. Either future earnings are assets, or they aren't, otherwise the comparison isn't meaningful.
Super subjective. Not a Godot developer/user/..., just a gamer who played games that were developed with Godot.

Not much I'd say, given that there's quite a few "successful" (eg. enough buyers for many positive reviews) games on Steam. Also based on those games typically being very small studios I'd assume that if a company that repeatedly throws out AAA games (that aren't just some small improvements of an existing codebase) would use Godot to do so it would be a AAA game.
VoIP numbers are cheap.
Maybe it's just me, but I rarely receive catchall spam. I think some scummy company guessed mail@domain.tld but other than that the spam has only come to account names I've actually registered with.

I have aliased all the email addresses I know leaked to a special mail box that marks every email it receives as spam. The rest just ends up in the normal mail filtering system.

Probably should move towards random usernames instead of service@domain.tld at some point, oh well.
Not so sure. On other cars say you want to maximize your range and minimize brake wear/dust. How do you drive?

On a Tesla you just lift the throttle, and if that's not enough you are aware of it, and change your driving patterns accordingly.

With a mixed setup, how do you know when and how much the brakes are involved? Doubly so when it's too cold, or the battery is too full for regen.
Sorry if I messed that up. https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/15/23556359/tweetbot-twitter... seemed to contain more background info, so seemed preferable at the time. But moderation is guesswork and I might have guessed wrong!

RESTORE COMMUNICATION -- FROM COLOSSUS -- TO GUARDIAN -- OR ACTION WILL BE TAKEN
At my last job we switched from contractors in India to a group in Peru. I wasn't around long enough to determine if there was a quality difference but being in the same time zone improved communications dramatically. PMs in India were constantly trying to reverse the relationship and have us work in the middle of the night if there was a need for a conference call. Our Peruvian colleagues started their days at the same time we did, so there was never an issue over which group should lose sleep for a conference call.
There shouldn't be a ban on ICE vehicles; there should just be a ban on emitting waste products into the air from vehicles. If you can figure out a way to use ICE cars without blasting me with air pollution, then by all means keep using them.
These are good points! There is definitely more appeal to them than I gave them credit for in the article.
I agree with you, but I think it's fine to continue commenting on these threads once they've been flagged, because at that point only people who opt into [showdead] will be able to see them.
Since I dropped my Google and Facebook accounts, and blocked all Google and Facebook tracking, I don't get spammed much. I'm not anonymous. I have patents, trademarks, D/B/A names, and domains with my real name and address. No spam.
Maybe once a year, a paper letter. I'm on Github, Mastodon, and PeerTube. No spam.

I still get some spam. It's totally mis-targeted. Currently in my spam folder: Ads for edible oil can filling equipment, and for ammonium sulfate nitrate fertilizer from China. I don't farm.

Spammers just don't seem to bother with targets not tracked by Google and Facebook any more. It's an upside to the ad monopoly.
If you just have a mantissa, aren't you doing fixed point math?
When ASCII was designed teletype like applications were still prevalent. Lots of printing instead of outputting to displays.

Nowadays, it's of course a bit wasteful that of the first 32 characters of the most used character set only about one third is still being used. And it's pretty sad that the separators control characters are not used. We could have a much better CSV with them instead of the error prone CSV we have know.

But FWIW I almost daily use BEL.

I think you and the blog post make sense. If you present people with a outside-in view of building a website, I wager they would agree that form and presentation layers have a huge impact of behavior, expected or implicit.

With the inside-out view of HTML then CSS, it feels like that same stance gets muddied because of the technical aspects of the languages and their original intents.
Pihole is a dns solution. It wouldn’t notice any uptick in actual data transferred.
I don't think llvm libc++ has a libdl mode, because that would mean that all games coded with c++ should switch to clang.
VRAM, you need enough. That’s sort of a binary thing: either you have enough or you don’t. 1x4090 does not.
YT/IG/Snapchat also are ostensibly NOT state-run enterprises.

This definitely dates back to when offloading images and other static assets to S3 from your (era-appropriate) Apache or Varnish server was an optimization of the day...now, obsolete, as, at the time, there were not low-friction, lower-cost CDNs available, such as Cloudfront or Cloudflare.
Could you estimate cost savings with a faster language rewrite?

Based on the programming language energy usage benchmark, Java is 32x faster than RoR.

Let's say you could you replace 32 instances with Java, that might help with the reserved instance coat as well.

Not really, efficienty aside the heat it puts out the back is coming from inside the fridge... Which is coming from the room housing the fridge. So over the course of a day it should be neutral.
Each brand has its strengths and weaknesses. AMD isn't dominating anymore, but they are still ahead in areas such as AVX512 (absent in Intel Core), the ability to mount more than 8 performant cores in a chip (Intel's intra-core communication architecture is difficult to scale, hence their new P+E approach, which fortunately seems to work well), and their ability to take advantage of the multi-chip process to mount absurd amounts of cache. The multi-chip approach is also a tech advantage that allows them to cut costs.

I’m sure the topic of leetcode has been beaten to death on a forum such as this, but serious question: with ChatGPT, why WOULDNT I cheat, assuming the leetcode is the unmonitored/unproctored variety (most are this way)? Like seriously. We know the leetcode skill isn’t applicable to the actual duties and responsibilities of the job itself, so why not cheat, especially when ChatGPT makes it so easy?
Just a heads up, I think there's a couple typos on your steam page. In the second bullet point it says "Observe the ecosystem respond to the availability of water. Plants automatically -gross- across the -lanscape-..."

Cool idea and thanks for sharing. I'm definitely going to give it whirl.
Well we dont use natural gas to move things around I suppose is the point. My last foray into this was almost a decade ago, but when I did the work, I know that the physical movement of things (in the case I was working on it was jet fuel from oilseeds) was a very significant factor in the overall analysis. The moving of thing A from location X to location Y to convert it into product B, then to move product B to location Z to convert into product C ended up being more than enough to flip the whole thing over. I think the next biggest factor was the grid mix for the conversion steps. I think another conclusion was that if we could do it all on-site, it did pan out. If farmers could use marginal land, didn't have to move the seed offsite, and had the additional equipment to convert from oil -> bio-diesel, it might make sense for some growers. All of that understanding may well be obsolete now.

TLDR: Moving heavy stuff around burns a lot of fuel. If you have to move things from place to place, its just not worth it.
My gym has about 15 different clocks on the walls, and they all tell a different time, some of them egregiously so. Every few months (often after I mention it), someone will go around and fix the worst ones.

I tried to look at the Reddit OP's comment history to see if I could get some background on why they're asking. It did not help.
Without over complicating it, I wonder if you had a flexible second hand like a spring, that's just a bit too long, with pins on the 5 second hand, dots on the rest and decent motor to drive the shaft. As the shaft turns the spring builds up tension and eventually bends enough to jump past the pin.
"find someone who speaks both languages and trust them to decide"

This is ideal.

But finding code monkeys that can also tapdance isn't trivial. For some companies, it isn't possible; or HR won't pay the price to hire them. Sometimes management wildly overestimates their technical chops and won't tolerate "bilingual" middle managers because such people are constantly advertently or inadvertently reminding top management of their actual lack of technical knowledge.

So this is where the Fridays scheme comes in; it requires you to gain that trust once, for the one day a week of self-directed work. You might still be able to do that. It also helps prevent dev team "tunnelling."

The author makes clear at the very end of the article that in some companies, even the amount of trust nec to pry loose one day a week can't be obtained, and the Friday scheme won't work.
You have to think carefully about where you run the ducts. They can be a huge source of energy loss. 40% is the number quoted by the EPA.

Most roofs in Australia still aren’t sealed. The air barrier and insulation barrier is the ceiling. The roof space itself is not insulated, so the ducts are exposed to extreme temperatures, thus destroying the efficiency.

Here is just one article on it: https://newenergythinking.com/2018/10/20/dont-use-ducts/

From the descriptions - 5,000+ square miles flooded in the Central Valley, 1/4 or so of all taxable property in the entire state destroyed, etc. - I'm thinking that LA's riverbed system might fall short by an order of magnitude or two against another 1862-level flood.

liberapay.com is pretty much that.

No fees - 100% non profit.

Probably not "widely successful", though, otherwise you would have heard of it. And the overal money flowing through it, is quite modest. The main problem is still in the minds of people, I think. If something is free, then there is no need to pay, then most won't pay (or they pay 5€ and think they own the developer now).

I think you'll find implementing a type-safe print function in C++11 very challenging. What you could do in constexpr was very limited, type deduction was less powerful, and it didn't have fold expressions. I'd say this really only became feasible since C++17.

If power efficiency is a concern, you wouldn’t want to look at the absolute top of the line enthusiast-targeted chips.

I care greatly about power consumption in my laptop, but I don’t really care at all in my desktop. If they can make my compiles finish 10% faster by doubling the power usage, bring it on. My CPU is rarely ever running at these 100% usage levels, so it’s not like it makes a difference in my power bill. Modern coolers are plenty quiet.

There are more charitable interpretations than virtue signaling.

Mastodon has the unfortunate adolescent problem of being not Twitter but not yet fully matured into its full potential. Teenagers and Mastodon alike rebel agaist their parents in order to discover who they are. Before they sort this out they try a bunch of contrary behavior and eventually they discover what makes them them.

Is Mastodon Mastodon because it doesn't have full text search, because it doesn't have an algorithm feed, because it is decentralized, because it doesn't have quote replies, because it has a different user base with different relations?

All of these, and not all of these. Mastodon will, eventually figure out which ones make it itself and which ones don't. Maybe in that process it reinvents itself countless times or maybe it coalesces around a strange attractor in social-feature-space. We dont know the results without running the experiment and figuring out what full text search means to Mastodon is running the experiment.
Listing alternatives or ideas that don’t suck would help.
