Worth mentioning that a very slow fan (at 600-800 rpm) is essentially silent. If it only spins up a little when you game you probably won't hear it from the sounds on the game.
Apologies are pretty damn cheap. The excuse of being a 'small team' is bizarre. Shouldn't a 'small team', of all places at least have the courtesy of not unceremoniously jettisoning candidates? It seems to be poorly indicative of a culture to both have the callous disregard for candidate experience like a large corporation while also lacking having the resources of one.
Everything you've just said is compatible with what I've said.

The vendors are concerned about being left out at the "source", and are seeking to differentiate with their proprietary "sink", usually closed-source SaaS solutions.

I'm not even arguing that this is bad, it's just how markets work, and it's currently beneficial to developers in general, including both open-source developers and the type working in a cubicle farm somewhere.
Don't recurse!
Maybe this is the application NFTs (with some tweaks) have been looking for.

Someone will figure out how to crack it though, or the possibility will be plausible enough, and then we'll be at zero again.
> It does not restrict distribution, instead of restricts the ability to limit/restrict distribution. Quite a significant difference.

semantics. Saying i cannot distribute something without providing the same freedoms given to me is still restricting what/how I distribute.

> Also, fundamentally, one (AGPL) is putting the freedoms of the code and its users over those of the authors whereas the other (ELv2) puts the freedoms and interests of its authoring business over the freedom of the code and it's users.

Yes. I fully agree. It's not like I haven't said something similar right but it's just discussing semantics at this point. So I'll stop.

> I think most of what people call Rust's "ugliness" is actually just Rust's explicitness.

I think most of what people call C's ugliness is actually just C's power. Some of it is C's age: we can't blame C for being born in the very early 1970s (when sensible ISAs were just born), but when you update C, don't try to make it be something that it's not. You see the beauty of UTF-8? People who could not have invented UTF-8 can at least see the beauty of UTF-8. Unfortunately, people who could not have invented C, are updating C.

When you try to update C, not only don't wreck it, don't try to replace it with something emo, weak, and overwrought, which is what Rust is.

C is powerful, natural, and concise. It doesn't wipe your ass for you. Wiping your ass neatly is not something you want to entrust to a bulletproof syntax, not when you can always just wash your hands. Rust? Rust has the color of not washing your hands because Rust imagines that it made it unnecessary.
As someone who doesn’t know rails at all, what’s the innovation here? Surely Rails has had Dockerfiles written for it before?

You could use the front TrueDepth sensor that is behind FaceID unlocking. You will get quite detailed RGB + depth data. It could possibly capture even the subtle movements of upper chest.

> “We can see it went in water deeper than 50 meters because it was preserved with a particular mineral called glauconite, which is a green phosphate mineral. And it only forms in cooler temperatures in water deeper than 50 meters,” explained Henderson.

Surely this is nonsense.

You cannot tell the depths that a living creature swam, from the mineral deposits on its fossilised body!

I mean, if I drown and my dead body comes to rest deeper than 50 meters, and then several trillion of years later my fossilised body is uncovered with glauconite all over it, you would be wrong to deduce that I swam 50 metres under the sea.

> But Brown and his colleagues discovered something completely unexpected: Borealopelta’s coloring may have helped keep it camouflaged in its environment. The team found evidence that the animal used countershading, meaning that the coloration of its body was darker on the top and tapering into a lighter underbelly.

Oh please. How is it possible to deduce the colouring of a fossilised creature? The creature itself is gone - its just stone. You can no more do this, than tell the colour of a man's eyes from his footprint.

My recommendation is to avoid using an ORM (SQLAlchemy or any other) to define the business logic models (which is the approach used in Django). That works well only if your business models and your database entities align very closely, but in many large systems this is not the case, end you end up running around in circles trying to align the two.

Instead, use either an ORM, or even better the SQLALchemy core, to manage and abstract out the database; and use something like dataclasses, attrs or Pydantic to define your business logic models. In a network-oriented application, i.e. an API, I would recommend to use a separate tool to model the I/O entities, again unless they correspond very closely to the business ones.
I don't think there exists a single person who both a) cares about "clean, semantic HTML/CSS/JS" and b) can't build such website himself.

Now if you forget the letter soup and instead go for "clean, stylish design and magnificent UI" you'll find as much work as you had back then.

If I ever decided to go that route again (tried, failed) I would create several micro web agencies each targeting a niche. An agency specialised in websites for accountants, another one specialising in websites for architects, etc. Businesses spend a surprising amount of money when buying "premium". Follow that money.
To pick a small part of your comment: I think that retaining developers for a legacy codebase is doable as long as you have strong technical leadership.

If I come on board a new team and there's a ton of legacy code, the main question I'll have is "what's your plan here?". If the answer is "no plan, ignore it until it's a problem, then make the smallest possible fix," then of course you'll get new devs immediately jumping ship. But there are lots of other potential plans. "We're incrementally replacing each of these components, targeting one of them per quarter." "We've put this really solid interface between the legacy components and the new stuff." "We've been investigating, writing documentation, and writing tests that cover our legacy code so that we can maintain it alongside newer stuff."

As long as there's some kind of plan in place and the team is executing on that plan, most developers I've worked with will stick around. The issue comes when either there's no plan or there's nobody willing to put resources towards the plan.
Very promising, but given that they are still fixing binary search bounds checks, probably needs time to stabilize https://github.com/containers/composefs/commit/64640fa0fe256...
Your numbers are based on wrong assumptions.

What I calculated is the absolute ratio. when looking at new hires you need to look at turnover. Turnover rate is significantly higher for field jobs (sometimes intentionally, e.g. Amazon always hire more people before the holidays for a term). Therefore, when looking at new hires, the ratio is skewed even more towards field workers.

At the end of the day, Amazon has around 300K corp emplyees, of those, they are laying off 18K+. This 6% ratio is similar to other tech companies.
Been on a similar search for a while. Looks like the PSD2 directive is really only a suggestion to EU banks. Sadly.

On the other hand, Facebook went from about 4,000 employees to over 70,000 in the same time period, so given how much Apple's business has grown in the last decade (when they released the iPhone 5) it seems pretty impressive that they grew only ~2x.
> [I] find it really hard to imagine going to work and spending all day chipping at rocks, for over 5 years straight. I feel they did the right thing when naming the dinosaur after him. Respect.

That's kind of encouraging. The lying experts and underfunded defense attorneys out there didn't bring about the end of days with the appearance of photoshop, and it's unlikely that they will now either. Which isn't to say that we shouldn't try to fix those problems...

I'm already somewhat hopeful that if deepfakes can be reliably detected juries will be automatically skeptical of unauthenticated videos and prosecutors will view getting their videos authenticated as an easy way to strengthen their case. I already suspect close to every picture I see has been edited and altered somehow.
BTW this limitation made me believe that the data distributed with Protomaps is limited to that zoom level in general. Some wording related to "data" and "shopping" near that map quickly made me assume that deeper zoom levels will cost money.

Are you presenting a limitation of the product on the front page or is this just a limiting presentation of your product? Mind the difference.

during that period of time, the ancestors of every living thing on earth was also mutating and naturally selecting.

during the entire time the dinosaurs roamed the earth, the mammals and/or their ancestors were also evolving and saving up genetic endowment for being the fittest in every eventuality; sadly, the dinosaurs bet on the wrong ... horses.
If your in the US there are a surprising number of arcades around that are loaded with the classic games. Just Google and you’ll find them. If you are willing to travel then probably the best two are https://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/ (Illinois), https://www.classicarcademuseum.org/ (New Hampshire). There is very little parking at Galloping Ghost, suggest you take Lyft to get there. Plan to spend the day for either.

If your into pinball then https://roanokepinball.org/ (Virginia) Limited paid parking, take Lyft to get there. You can play everything in 4-6 hours.

All three are free-play, pay per head for admission, ok to leave and come back same day.

Concept2 Rowing Machine. Row for an hour first thing in the morning, six days per week.

Rowing machines can be real instruments of torture if you want them to be. I prefer to keep my sessions long and low heart rate, about 65% of my max bpm. I'll do some more intense stuff when the weather warms up a bit.

Some people struggle with the boredom of long rowing sesisons but I'm lucky that I can cope with it, put my music on and go into a half awake half asleep state until the mins are gone.

Concept2 have a great web site, plenty of challenges and ways of tracking your progress. Machines are quite expensive but hold their value and are extremely robust, I've never had a single issue with mine.
I can't recall the quote, but "A book worth burning is a book worth reading."

So? An excavator clearly isn't a human, but it digs holes in the ground by the same principles that a human using only his bare hands would, only faster and more efficient.
I think there's a difference between watching through a screen what it known to be fiction and going to see with your own eyes the remains of a murdered child as described in the article.
That's the claimed reasoning, yes.
Is that actually true though?

It may be from a pure economic perspective focused on a business that can socialize externalities. Sometimes new developments reduces development time. On the other hand, the externalities of that is that a modern computer performs worse running equivalent tasks today in the browser than a native app 15 years ago on hardware from that time. Lucky for businesses that they aren't held responsible for the ewaste they helped produce.
Apple is the one commercial entity that could completely disrupt surveillance capitalism and reboot the digital space to an era reminiscent of the Microsoft monopoly - but now with their huge attached and interoperable mobile user base.

What they simply need to do is make self-hosting (using Mac devices) trivially easy and support a number of new/updated protocols for decentralized online interactions (messaging, blogs, search, social etc).

Monopolies are never optimal, but given the dismal moral basis of the other "big tech" I'd take it any day...
I would offer a counter point: Chat GPT uses text, which is analogous to the MIDI of spoken language. Now, what's to prevent a speech to text and text to speech AI slapped on both ends to make it audibly conversational? Or train the franken-model model end to end in one monolithic model in hopes that it might make other interesting connections.

That being said I have seen very little in the AI transcription space (Listening to music, and outputting legible sheet music while identifying instruments) especially when it comes to multi-instrument music. I've also seen very little in the midi generation space aside from what you mentioned.

It would be nice to see midi to midi AI remixes, analogous to how Chat GPT can (sort of) turn wikipedia into rap lyrics.
I like the idea but having people give you their username and then generating the password for them is clearly a security risk since it's easy for that to be hacked and the save the passwords it's generated for people.

It is likely that the shares are held by a family trust or an offshore company registered in another jurisdiction, rather than being held personally by him. Although I am not familiar with the UK's tax laws, in other countries, loopholes exist that allow for taxable income from dividends of shares held personally to be reduced or eliminated through capital loss and depreciation deductions.

Same as with cameras, brushes, etc. these models are tools, that humans use.

I can setup stable diffusion on a computer, I can put a brush next to a roll of canvas, or hammer and chisel next to a block of marble. Neither of these setups will create art on its own.
I do judo 2hrs 3x/wk and weight lift/cardio 1.5-2hr 5x/wk with some soccer occasionally on Thursdays. Before I started (5yrs ago) I was about 115kg, I've been steady at 95kg since. There's no way I'd stick with the weights and cardio if it was just that alone. It's way too monotonous for me, I need some coordination based sport to tie it to to motivate it.

None of these covers shows "the" Dune font, for me. The first edition of Dune had a very stylized calligraphy that looked like arabic. I remember it vividly since my dad had this book in the living room, among others; and when I was learning to read, this was the only cover that I couldn't read at all. (It was a translation, but with the same cover.)

These letters are shown on the wikipedia page about the novel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dune_%28novel%29

EDIT: The covers of some modern french translations are also incredible. Just the four letters D U N E, which are exactly the same shape but rotated 90 degrees. It's an incredibly simple and effective design.

> Safe rust can still use crates with unsafe rust

Every language ecosystem that I have used has a good subset of its popular libraries implemented in memory-unsafe languages (usually C or C++), and the use of these libraries is typically unavoidable if you need high performance or to interact with the OS. Which is to say, most large projects in GC languages end up pulling in memory-unsafe dependencies.

Rust's advantage is that at least your dependencies are not 100% unsafe code, but have unsafe parts limited to small, easily auditable blocks.
"just performing predictable mathematical transformations"

Just linear algebra, to be precise. A lens is just a matrix and rays are simply vectors. Combining lenses is merely matrix multiplication and complex optical systems can be represented by the result, which is a plain simple matrix again. The Eigenvalues tell you interesting properties of your optical system.

I've always enjoyed this part of physics because it is so simple and elegant, yet so powerful.

If you look closely linear algebra pops up in many places.
