Yes, start with the end square and work your way backwards. It is often only a single path that leads you there for the final steps. Once you develop the path close enough back to where you are then it’s easier to see how you can get onto it. Then just follow it.

Incidentally, this is also a good strategy for planning and breaking down goals in real life: begin with the end goal, then work your way backwards.
I thought this comment chain was about durable execution in general. Temporal seems to be that plus some RPC stuff that is a lot more than "nothing special."
This depends on religion - Sikh temples are cleaned every day, are usually immaculate white, and incorporate foot washing into every entrance. It's pretty marvelous to see how efficiently a group of ~100 volunteers clean the Golden Temple in Amritsar every day - whoever happens to be around at 3 pm might grab a broom, bucket, or stand in the holy pool to fill buckets of water. The surrounding city and state (Punjab) is much cleaner than you would find elsewhere in India.
Can you explain more what you mean by “do whatever you want without as much effort”? Is it because text-davinci-003 accepts more tokens for the prompt? Something else?
No, that's not the case. The term "class" here isn't being used to describe OOP classes. You can read the article for more details, but "class" here is being used to describe something like a dynamically distinguished subset of a type: a branch of a sum type in a language like Haskell or SML or Idris.

If I write a well-typed function in one of these languages that consumes a value of type Foo, it's statically guaranteed that it can operate on any value of type Foo, regardless of its class, but it needs to dynamically ascertain - using a pattern match - which class of Foo-typed values it is to do anything meaningful with it.

Java operates under the same principle, in its way. In Java, barring escape hatches from the type system (casts), if I write a method that consumes an object of type Foo, likewise, it's statically enforced that it can operate on any object of type Foo, and notably it can't operate on any object of type Object. But in order to invoke a method on my Foo-typed object, it needs to do a dynamic dispatch to ascertain which class' methods to invoke. So what Java calls classes do type-theoretic double-duty - in a static dispatch context, Foo is a type; but in a dynamic dispatch context, Foo's subclasses constitute its open set of (type-theoretic) classes.

This is totally normal nomenclature in PLT circles (Harper, after all, is one of the biggest names in PLT circles, and he's borrowed this idea from Dana Scott who's another big name). The comments section of an article on a programming language, especially one deeply rooted in PLT, is probably a reasonable place to be open to it.
It does, I love the peaceful vibe it has. But to be fair this is conveying a lot less information about the individual players than Meta does. A "metaverse" is much harder problem than people imagine.
That's not the only goal. This also reduces the effectiveness of copycat crimes, and differentiates any would-be copycats from the original. Also, it enhances the ability of authorities to receive and authenticate tips from the general public. In fact, in a high-profile case, it's common practice to deliberately plant misinformation in the form of slight immaterial errors, for many of the same purposes.
Cars are cool tech no doubt. I just think when you step back and look at our cities the car infrastructure is overwhelming. No one should die because they were walking in a city. San Francisco had a Vision Zero goal; to have no pedestrian or biking deaths in the city. They made good progress but are far from reaching the goal
Like you I learned this early on. But I somehow manage to forget the lesson every time I engage on a significantly new platform. I had to re-learn it again on Twitter and on Hacker News.

A typical Indian family cleans their home twice a day. The dirtiness has to do with public places. In villages, all trash end up being in creeks--eventually ending up in oceans. In mega cities, sewage systems don't work, and they are not maintained properly. Small business people, even trash pickers who charge to pick up trash, dump their trash elsewhere. This list is endless.

I had the same thoughts. Some people need various kinds of medication, and that's fine.

But if a normally functioning person needs to start Xanax for the purpose of getting through (let's admit it) a power-play hazing ritual that has little to do with the job, then maybe that person and the rest of us should go tell those companies to take a hike. The EEOC should, as well.
I was a little surprised, but it also worked fine on FF mobile, after ~15-20 seconds loading.
Thanks for the comment, that's so fascinating since it seems to put limitations on thinking in general. A human for example can imagine future possibilities concurrently while speaking and correct themselves as they go.

It doesn't seem to map well tk how I put together a thought either, but admittedly I wouldn't really know how the mechanics of my brain do it, maybe it's not so different just with some auxiliary modules bolted on ha.
You believe the usa is a democracy? Despite high barriers to voting and the fact that in three federal executive elections in recent history the State gave power to the candidate that lost the popular vote?

Despite the fact that the State allows for bans on women's healthcare despite the majority of population supporting guaranteed access to women's healthcare?

Despite the fact that the State has criminalized marijuana despite the fact that the majority of the population wants it decriminalized?

The USA is not as authoritarian as some places. Obviously that is true. It's a pretty good place to live, comparatively. But don't aid the State in grasping more power. What a terrible end to the American experiment, I predict: PATRIOT act type laws passing again and again while the people allow themselves to be distracted by culture war. History repeats itself except this time the intelligentsia aren't participating voluntarily for self gain, it seems many of them (here) are letting fascism just get away with it because, I dunno, maybe they see themselves on the side of the arbitrarily decided "big tech" actor in the culture war?

Who knows. To me it just seems a repeated pattern of fascist-tilted ideologies coopting contradictory pro worker and nationalist rhetoric and responding to all criticism by retorting that there's no alternatives but ${somePlaceNobodyWantsToLive} so we better just accept things as they are.
> Twitter, before Elon, was already losing a couple hundred million a year

Twitter's business was making a profit in 2018 and 2019, but then 2020 happened (because 2020), and in 2021 they had a $800 million class action settlement to pay (without that it would have been $600m profit), and then in 2022 Elon tanked the company in the 4th quarter.

The core business was (just about) profitable before Elon. It was just far below the FAANG-level expectations from a tech company.
Relative of an employee of FreeTaxUSA/TaxHawk.

The two sites are targeting different kinds of people. That's why they exist. They are the same (and same company) because in the end, everyone has to go through the same processes for taxes.

As for keeping the tax return data on their server, it's for convenience and possibly for other reasons. My relative believes that, for legal reasons, FreeTaxUSA is considered a "tax preparer" and needs to keep those records.
> [I]f you take the most well-meaning person, leave them holding a piece of trash, then deprive them of anywhere to dispose of it, where do you think it's going to go?

I'm definitely not the most well-meaning person, but that piece of trash is going to go into my pocket (or stay in my hands) until I see a sufficiently-empty trash can or dumpster to place it in. It'll stay with me until I get home if it has to.

I _do not_ get folks that toss trash around. It's just fuckin nuts.

I wonder.

Since this runs in the browser, does it mean that we could dynamically use different assets based on device and bandwidth?

Or start with lower res assets and progressively get better ones, like jpeg progressive downloads?
I've been using Free fillable forms for quite a few years without any issues. Up until the 2020 tax year, they also had state fillable forms which I also used to file state taxes. Unfortunately, they stopped supporting individual filings for state taxes, so that's no longer an option. I actually filed my state taxes by paper for the first time in many years because of that.

I feel it relevant to point out that any application running as a user that can run sudo, can just steal your sudo password.

https://gist.github.com/lrvick/b0f4b744ab277582b1f9c50e0eb87...

Having a password or a key or any other nonsense to run sudo is security theater.

If you do not want all applications to have real root access, use Qubes to isolate applications into VMs, or at the very least have your daily driver user not have root access and have a separate admin user.

On the other hand, if it represents scratch space in English, it's a lot easier to see how it justifies its answer and to tell where it's gone wrong. Debuggability seems pretty important?

CHIPS act spending is going to be a boondoggle. There isn't significant local demand for ICs. Nearly all production is in SEA so anything made in the US has to be shipped back for assembly. That means the only devices worth making are higher margin VLSI parts. Anything cheaper will not be profitable without protectionist subsidies.

It's pretty damning when Micron has funding for a new factory handed to them and then they have mass layoffs a few months later.
Nice website (not just the cool animated motto).
It has been explained repeatedly in very specific terms.

3 hours of cyclable storage (primarily in the form of pumped hydro because the exaggerations about geographic limits are another lie, but also in batteries) and a few tens to a few hundred of hours per year of high power dispatchable generation (again, existing hydro and biogas covers the overwhelming majority of this). With a list of technologies and insignificant behavior changes that assist which make it even easier thas is too long to state.

Also, glass isn't terribly polluting. It's inert and it will eventually degrade into sand. It'll take a long time but it's not like microplastics that stay in the body.

And we've been recycling glass before recycling was a big thing of course.
Because there are huge flames of gas being burned off from fracking because it is cheaper for the oil companies to waste the gas in order to get the oil. Total and complete waste. Canada does not allow burning off of gas from fracking wells like that but the US does.

The Australian case mentioned in the article had a similar theme. Kathleen Folbigg wrote diary entries blaming herself for her kids' deaths, and these were interpreted as admissions of guilt (in fairness they could definitely be read that way). She had four of her own children die of undetermined causes and was basically convicted on the diary entries and the improbability of them all dying. Has been a long and ongoing public debate here (she's still in jail).
Waitstaff put in more time bringing food (if they do that, but tips are pooled anyway), topping off drinks, handling odd requests, and then taking care of checkout. They also make $2 an hour while the person handing doughnuts gets at least minimum wage which seems like a good justification for hitting 0% at the bakery register.

You're right about bartenders being the exception. That I tend to view more as an outright bribe for better drinks and faster service which is honestly not ideal either.

I do think businesses are taking advantage of our guilt and conditioning to try to normalize tips where they never existed before. Hopefully your friend can be brought around to see that. The fewer people who accept it, the slower it will spread. I really hope "tip creep" pisses people off enough that we start to question the entire culture of tipping.
Musk could have just tweeted "As we focus on increasing the velocity of developing new features we don't want the baggage of maintaining the legacy API for clients so we're going to wind down support for third-party clients in a month from now." and it would have headed off like 70% of the hate. You don't need a comms team for that.

"Snow persistence is shown as mean snow cover index, or the proportion of time snow was on the ground from Jan 1 to July 3, 2001-2020".

I was expecting it'd instead be average depth of snow (with logarithmic binning). I imagine snow persistence correlates, although nonlinear, and also factors in altitude of each hextile.

80% layoffs, 7500 people originally.

here's a script that will highlight previously visited squares as red. as a nice bonus it replaces the instructions with more accurate ones

// Get all square elements
squareElements = [...document.querySelectorAll("[data-testid='white-square']"), ...document.querySelectorAll("[data-testid='black-square']")];

// create array of elements that have been landed on
// these need to be set to red every time because the board resets every move
let modifiedElements = [];
observer = new MutationObserver(function (mutations) {
mutations.forEach(function (mutation) {
if (mutation.addedNodes.length > 0) {
mutation.addedNodes.forEach(function(addedNode) {
key = addedNode.getAttribute('data-testid').split('-')[1];
if (!modifiedElements.includes(key)) {
modifiedElements.push(key);
}
for (let i = 0; i < modifiedElements.length; i++) {
el = squareElements.find(e => {
return e.getAttribute('data-squareid') === modifiedElements[i]
})
el.style.backgroundColor = 'red';
}
});
}
});
});

// observe all square elements
for (let i = 0; i < squareElements.length; i++) {
observer.observe(squareElements[i], { childList: true, subtree: true });
}

// replace instructions with more accurate instructions
instructions = document.querySelector('section p')
instructions.innerHTML = 'Move to the square indicated below the board without moving to a square the queen can capture and without capturing the queen. Once accomplished a new square will be indicated. Repeat until all possible squares are done.';
I agree with everything you said, and also want to point out Twitter doesn't really have much of a "core experience" shared across its entire userbase either. Trending topics and promoted tweets on Twitter are largely determined by your language, location, who you follow, and interests Twitter has determined you have. You and another Twitter user are going to see very different content shown to you even beyond the things you subscribe to.
This is cool! One more notch in the theory of getting a true RepRap to reproduce...
No, of course not. But others seem to be. And in my opinion by the time they decided to do layoffs it would’ve been too late to cancel the concert and get their money back, so you might as well enjoy the concert.
You are correct that I think the USA government is an authoritarian one, insomuch as it is very reactionary or at least conservative, and engages in incredible acts of authoritarianism and imperialism.

I don't think it's anything like authoritarian regimes, wherein a single individual (DPRK) or party (PRC) maintains absolute power. However, it is authoritarian in its representation of its single interest: billionaires and corporations (which famously have personhood in the usa and are explicitly granted political power via legislation).

I wish you wouldn't take a bad faith interpretation of my position by strawmanning me as if I'm claiming the usa is like the DPRK. I'm not alone in my viewpoints, and considering the rise of leftism in the usa, at the very least you would be well served to pay attention to what we're saying if nothing else so you aren't blindsided by a sudden wave of anti-establishment blowback. Read Cory Doctorow's "Radicalized" for some fun fiction on the dangers of laughing away criticism of the problems in the usa as just silly disaffected leftists who aren't "realistic."

In any case I doubt what I'm claiming, if you take it in good faith, is really all that controversial.

Do you want to live in a country where you could be churned through viciously unfair court systems for potential years because you used JavaScript to access APIs that you didn't know were intended to be accessed only by humans through web browsers? Because that's happened to people in the usa.

Do you want to live in a country where you could go to jail for fixing your own tractor, or iphone? That's what the American government is leaning towards.

Do you want to live in a country where human rights aren't guaranteed if the State can pick a demographic trait about you that renders you inhuman in certain situations? The USA is doing that right now to women and their bodily autonomy, and transgender people for same.

Do you want to be a target when you travel because your government armed revolutionaries and then radicalized them against The West by pillaging their country for natural resources? This America has done uncountable times.

So why deny reality? Don't you want the usa to be a better place? You don't have to be a communist to think so. You can simply want the things I mentioned to go away. There's no reason America can't just be a milquetoast capitalist state with whisps of socialism in their healthcare and transportation industry like plenty of nations across the world. Why assume that's a slippery slope to whatever scary thing you think I believe?
