> If it's a pricing impasse, are you sure you know their budget and fiscal generals?

They asked me to put together a pricing proposal prior to sharing ANY data on their budget, revenue, audience size, or anything. I scoured public records and interviews to get the data I could, and then put together a proposal that offered several tracks, to allow them to self-select into the tier that felt best for them. But we often get folks asking for pricing without telling us about usage levels, budget, size, or anything.

The Rails side of things is really used as an orchestration layer for the views and to handle business logic while also consuming a .NET database layer for services.

It's not really the "normal" way of using Rails but seems to function quite well on a "large scale". I agree it's probably not just the language change itself that's the reason but also due to the agility/advantages of Node compared to a Rails "monolith" - and I'm already starting to speak outside my familiarity of the architectural goals of everything
That circle you're running around with the goalposts in is getting very small. Multiple countries are installing more new renewable generation every year than new nuclear has ever gone online.

Also it didn't decarbonize france's economy. It partially decarbonized its electricity, this is well under half of the goal. Numerous countries have achieved more with wind and hydro, and the list of countries with higher VRE percent than france's nuclear is growing longer by the month.
I think "prompting" is just a temporary crutch on the way to natural language interfaces. In essence, ChatGPT solves a big portion of the prompting problem, and this natural language interaction is, above all, responsible for its wide accessibility and popularity. Technically, you could create a ChatGPT-type system based on GPT-3 but this was limited to experts and not easily scalable. Prompting as an engineering discipline is not here to stay.
This is great! Coincidentally, I was thinking: how great would it be to experience MM6 in VR? just yesterday!

MM6 was a big part of my childhood and its great to see a modern reimplementation of it. Maybe in the future I will see my dream of VR MM6 come true :)
Completely anecdotal observation with n=1 but FWIW I was an early adopter of SSDs and put one in my thinkpad in college running Win XP (this was before trim and all that) - it did require my to "align the partitions" but once that was done I did all my project work and would routinely hybernate my laptop. It lasted all through college and years after. I eventually just retired the device. SDD was fine. At the time SSDs were "unusable" for desktop workloads because of their perceived failure rates.

Seems like Amex Hilton Aspire card is the key here, just not sure how to get one, not living in the US, and having no credit history there. I assume they require some exorbitant income level as well?

Anyway, seems like just getting Diamond status gives you quite a bonus. I'm in this weird situation where I plan to go to US for the next 3-6 months, and I am actually considering living in Hiltons the whole time :)
No, the file names of compilation units do matter to javac. To quote the Java Language Specification, section 7.6:

> If and only if packages are stored in a file system (§7.2), the host system may choose to enforce the restriction that it is a compile-time error if a class or interface is not found in a file under a name composed of the class or interface name plus an extension (such as .java or .jav) if either of the following is true:

> * The class or interface is referred to by code in other ordinary compilation units of the package in which the class or interface is declared.

> * The class or interface is declared public (and therefore is potentially accessible from code in other packages).

and javac does indeed enforce this restriction, at least for public classes. It's an error to declare a public class called Foo in a file that's called anything except Foo.java.
Yes, but in that case, you can use only the complexity where you need it, instead of globally.

One could argue that "most" people[1] have iPhones (at least in the US). And yes it is only 22% world wide. But putting aside the currently available "seats" for a moment, at the point where is it clearly the better product then two things start happening

1) People start buying Apple hardware because it has a better map experience.

2) Apple can produce the iMap device, likely in cooperation with their maps partner TomTom, that people can use to get the Apple Maps experience without changing their phone provider.

Those dastardly people successful at selling their products and services at scale.
Thank you for mentioning this, it’s a very interesting thought actually.

For the uninitiated, the idea is that a product needs good engineering + good marketing to be successful. Products with only one of them will fail. The idea of Berkson’s fallacy is that even though it seems that good marketing is negatively correlated with engineering (and vice-versa) it’s actually because the baseline level of engineering and marketing is low, and products which happen to excel in one don’t need to excel in the other.

Ask HN: What compression doesn't re-include the same file multiple times?
As a test, I copied a 91 megabyte creative commons mp3 file to a test folder's /1, /2 and /3 subfolder.

I then tried compressing the three directories into one compressed file. I tried various utilities. I tested every setting of winrar (including maximum dictionary size) and most settings of 7zip, as well as tar -czf from the git bash prompt.

Except for 7zip when outputing 7zip with a very large dictionary size (3840 MB) and when it output .wim which is some kind of windows packaging, all tries by all programs failed to get a file around 91 megabytes (every try resulted in the same file being included 3 times, pushing the resulting zip or .tar.gz file to 275 MB, even on maximum settings.)

Other than 7zip on such large settings, which compression formats would handle this case? Does any open compression format support it?

More parsimonious explanation is that the PRC bureaucracy isn't going to waste resources cracking down on precursor producers for legal medicine ingredients when it doesn't cause domestic issues, or issues in the majority of countries, including other eight nation alliance members that have exploited China far more than the US. Like why wage 21st century opium war against only 1/8 of historic grudges. The primary incentive to assist the US med system driven opiate crisis prior during periods of better relations was because it was politically worthwhile to waste PRC resources to cooperate on US war on drugs. If PRC really wants to be nefarious, she would engineer less lethal drugs that keep victims alive longer to drain more American resources. And she would move back to actual drug production instead of maintaining olive branch precursor production. In so much as working with cartels on state level, IMO PRC benefits more from intelligence / influence of triad + cartel relations as they try to make headway into the Americas. The actual killing Americans is incidental because Americans will reliably find other ways to OD.

monetization really screwed this up. having a connected computer in your pocket with the ability to search everything and make shelter and travel reservations and perform other important actions instantly should really be perfect for this.

but somehow I always end up having to sign up for a bunch of services in a hurry and take crappy pictures of my id only to find out that the hotel doesn't know anything about my reservation when I arrive anyways.

sometimes I even have to upgrade my phone while sitting on a curb to get the app to arrange for the payment etc .etc.

Rails is extremely easy to get started with but after a few years the lack of types on Ruby cripples every single Rails app I've ever worked on. You can have as many unit tests and browser automation tests as possible, but updating any gem is a dice roll despite doing as much due diligence possible. And it's always something extremely trivial like a method changing its parameters without announcing it in the change log for some reason. Something almost any other language would warn you about.

I've been doing Rails dev for 7 years now but I just don't see it winning over TypeScript/nodejs frameworks. The only advantage Rails still holds is the out of the box batteries included package. But once a TS framework gets this, Rails will be in decline.
Indeed one of the biggest reasons I like cryptocurrencies is that I've been burned many times by paypal, payoneer, bank accounts, etc.

Just the other day when I tried to withdraw from a certain payment processor, which I've done 100s of times and is always instant, but it took 3 days because they were "validating it" (which makes no sense, it's a withdrawal to my own bank account), and I needed that money at that very moment, not 3 days later.

The only forms of money that I know for a certainty I can move at a moments notice are cash and crypto. Anything else I don't really own it.

It's also interesting to note that while Netflix may not yet have a white label arm, others do. Vimeo pivoted from trying to compete with YouTube to being a white label streaming service and there are several "powered by Vimeo" if you look under the hood. YouTube themselves offers some "gray label" services (Google is too proud of the brand to entirely wash it from such services).

Most interesting to this particular discussion is that Disney themselves have a white label platform at this point. Disney Streaming powers Disney+ and others at Disney, started as the pure white label platform from BAMTech (which Disney acquired), has merged in some of the platform used by Hulu as well (and Hulu had some white label deals beforehand, to my understanding) and is still the white label powering things like MLB and NHL streaming services (which both used to have small amounts of ownership in BAMTech, but now Disney is sole owner).

If Netflix were to build a white label platform today, they'd already have Disney as competition.

I'm waiting for a public exploit for the pixel 7 so that I can do some modifications to my phone (enable call recording outside countries that google supports call recording in). I could unlock the bootloader and root the phone via "normal" methods, however, that means having something that will then fail google safetynet and the like. A root exploit enables me to make the changes to on flash DBs, and then update the device and the DB changes will persist and my phone will be secure.

Of course, such an exploit could be used for more nefarious things, but as google wants to limit functionality that the phone has (that is legal where I am), I'll be patient.
If security patching is important to you, you aren't carrying an Android. This has never not been true. Even here, on a Google phone, where Google can't blame manufacturers for dragging their feet on releases. Over a year after Microsoft officially abandoned Windows Mobile, I was still getting security patches faster and more often than Android phones ever did.

If security is important to you, you carry an iPhone. That's a sad state of affairs, Apple has all sorts of problems and a ton of things I just find weird about the way their devices tend to do things and organize information, but it's just the only actual option right now.

So, I think the headline is a little misleading. The article talks about the core spinning in relationship to the earth's spin. So, the disputed claim is that it has been spinning faster than the earth, and it's going to be spinning slower than the earth. It's not stopping or reversing.

As for what would cause it to slow down or speed up with relationship to the speed of the planet's spin, they just say "magnetic and gravitational forces", whatever that means.

What if each user gets a fixed number of vote points per month? You can vote as many times you like but the more you vote the less each vote weight.

This can be an example of how social media incentive structure can be iterated on.

The main problem is that social media gets very few iterations on the fundamental stuff because you have to build a new audience for each attempt, or risk loosing the one that has already bought into your existing algorithm.

What if a social media platform could be built where "the algorithms" were user created plug-ins that users could subscribe to? Each "subreddit" with their own set of algorithms.

That would be fine, if it was possible to actually work out what changes you need to make. But Rails will have breaking changes every release that aren't mentioned in the docs. I've spent around 200+ hours over the last year trying to update our app from 5.1 to 5.2. And it's not some kind of megaproject on the scale of Github, its an ordinary app around 10 years old.

Every single Rails update is extremely painful and issues will slip through every unit test and browser automation you can come up with. Stuff that would be trivially catchable with type checking.

In my experience, most land planning is done (or at least, starts) with a pencil on paper, even today. Technicians then take over the work of making it a detailed digital reality.

> Transistors pale in comparison to the interconnection density of synapses

Not so. Transistor are also smaller than synapses by about the degree to which marathon runners are smaller than hills.

Even allowing extra space for interconnections and cheating in favour of biology by assuming an M1 chip is a full millimetre thick rather than just however many nanometers it is for the transistors alone, it's still a better volumetric density than us.

(Sucks for power and cost relative to us when used to mimic brains, but that's why it hasn't already taken over).
Very likely. C#/Java and C++ are very different languages in their behaviours and purooses, though, so I thought I'd reference the most comparable alternative.

> Bloomberg failed to disclose to its customers that the use of EIT could, in certain circumstances, result in a valuation based on an uncorroborated single data input.

The clear counter-argument is here is that you override the model-based valuation because you know the model-based valuation is wrong for any one of a number of reasons--bad inputs, model bias, model not capture all relevant factors, etc.

All that being said, I'm sure BVAL is sold as "model-driven" and would like to minimize the disclosure of the actual number of times the model is overridden or ignored. As far as I'm concerned, "human in the loop" is a value proposition and buying any expert-based service that is 100% model-driven is not a service I would want to buy.
The positive side of the trade off is that the technology is usually available to more people by being more affordable.
