If I have a nice dual-monitor setup, in a business where everyone gets a 19" Dell, I will be more productive. That will lead to more promotions, lower odds of being fired, etc. I will come out ahead. Plus, I'll be happier.

If my employer benefits too, how does that hurt me?

Have you ever been burned by trying to install Docker and getting the whole new desktop manager installed because Docker is a widget in that desktop manager (I believe it's in Gnome)?

Actually happened to me twice (different distros at different times did include Docker, the container management tool as "docker" while more commonly naming it something else, like "docker-engine").

As for dbt. I mean... imagine you are selecting the name for your company, that's in SQL business, and you don't even bother to type into your favorite Web search engine "dbt sql"... I mean, it's definitely a business about DataBases, so, certainly a 3-letter acronym with "D" and "B" in it in that order would be truly unique, right?

I'd bet is that what happened is that these people, just like you, thought "I don't know what that is, so it must be unimportant", and they never stopped to consider that they might not know something important about the field they are in.

Justifying hatred by saying that it's part of your political or religious ideology is a pretty weak excuse. Obviously that sort of behavior can't be tolerated in a civilized society.

Stupid? If you had no access to a free search engine would you spend $20 a month on it? I sure would. It is also stupid to think that promoted results aren't a cost for you; if the search provider values it, there must be a cost.
Yes we see this increasingly. Corpos would term this "self service", but it's outsourcing the workload onto the customers. As long as the customer's frustrations with that don't exceed the cost of the labor being saved, the corpos see it as a win.

What's not measured is that there's increasing frustration and poor service. The edge cases are not covered, because the edge cases are not profitable. I expect we will see demand destruction in certain sectors if this continues. Folks will just not buy products when they cannot be assured that there will be service alongside it.
Not "we", but "they".
Unlike academics and reporters, you can’t check when ChatGPT’s telling the truth
This is my main concern. It's a good tool if you can afford not to take it too seriously. But when using it seriously, professionally, paid, it better be correct at least most of the time. 40% of the Azure related questions I ask are wrong. This makes me hesitant to spend $20. It's not that I can't afford it. But for that money I'd rather have occasional downtime than wrong answers.

I'm curious - and no expert here - but if what you say is correct (I haven't checked the paper), I thought this is the sort of thing peer review screened for?

If it's the case there was no control, why would peer review allow it and why would that not be mentioned in the article about it?

Orange Pi is a bit cheaper (starts under $100 for 4GB ram) but less slots. The hundred dollar barrier is where I start to balk at ARM sbc.

Fun seeing Jeff try out the expansion slots. The m.2 NIC is cute. I hope eventually CXL starts giving us some new smaller more modular add-ons. But it's not that small so I imagine cards being cable-attached in many situations.

It's wild how long the PC market has been able to go without facing intercompatibility issues. x86 everywhere is a slow thing to change course on.

I wish Intel's Lakefield had a cost-optimized sbc for it. That chip was so awesome, so small, so low power. With 1 very very nice core, solid gpu, and all ram on package. It would have made a very interesting sbc part. Trying to ship them in enough volume to get somewhat modestly priced chips from Intel would have been an absolute nightmare though, a huge gamble. That seems to be something brands like Chuwii have gotten really good at- finding what chips they can buy for below retail, and selling really nice machines around that at screaming value to consumers.
> My napkin math seems to indicate this couldn't possibly cost Boeing more than $10-20k? Pretty small potatoes to such a large company.

Yeah they were losing billions through criminal negligence and delayed deliveries of the 737 Max, so a couple of tens of thousands for some well needed good PR is nothing. This is probably the first bit of it for multiple years now, with all the delays in the 777X, assembly quality issues of 787, etc.
It's not so straightforward. Remote work encourages sprawl, which drives sprawl on infrastructure (sewage, water, electric grid, etc.), which can be considerably more costly and environmentally impactful than concentrated living in urban centres.
This has occasionally happened to me as well, from the beginning.
> Google presents what its customers (people doing searches) want to see

Google presents what it thinks people want to see, which it infers based on some number it can collect, like time-on-page, or scroll depth. The argument is that its proxy metrics for "the user liked this" are ill-considered, especially in this particular context.

Even when Google acts like a rational actor, it is not an oracle. It rationally optimizes an observable metric, which may or may not correlate to its actual goal.

Difference is that with GPT-3 playground you need to know your prompt engineering a bit. You need to worry about hyperparameters (temperature etc).

With ChatGPT you have none of that complexity. All the fine tuning choices are made for you. That is a huge advantage to general populace.

If there is a guide to get EXACT results that ChatGPT gives you on the OPEN AI playground I'd be interested in seeing those settings.

I think they do. No one's expecting to get dollar for dollar.

The issue is Apple seems to be low-balling to an almost offensive degree. Pointing to other hardware, that you think would have been a better deal to buy in the first place, is a distraction and doesn't address that issue.

What are some institutions where this is true? Are we talking 10% of institutions, or a more substantial number? I've read about many dismissals that were challenged, and I've never heard the institution defend itself on the grounds that tenure isn't actually guaranteed, but is just a social expectation.

Let's make a simple, boring clothing analogy: "Why use a broken suit with an elegant combination of fabrics and colors when a simple, ill-fitting T-shirt and a pair of chinos would allow you to cover your body?"

Let's make yet another analogy with the body: "Why spend time in the gym working with barbells and dumbbells to achieve a shape and tone that would make you look like a Bronze of Riace instead of doing "just" 10k steps a day?"

Perhaps a dress can be too flowery or stiff; appropriate for a wedding, inappropriate for a day in the woods. A body may be too muscular for a marathon, not enough for a bodybuilding competition.

It is a matter of taste, of situation. Terse writing may fit here and not there; flowery writing may work here and not there. Prescription always depend on the context and the goals.

No it is not. Consider for example PostgreSQL. Any company that supports PostgreSQL is undermining Oracles business.

In what way is this libel, exactly? Can you detail support for your position?

IANAL, but I seem to recall that, in order for something to be libel, the party providing the misinformation has to reasonably believe that the information is incorrect; having a reasonable belief that what one is saying is true isn't libel. iOS shows a message saying an app without location permission is accessing permission, someone reports that thing happened, it's not libel.
Python the language doesn't give you super powers and I would say that its clunkier and less elegant than Ruby and obviously not as powerful as languages like F#. Python's ecosystem and contributors are its biggest benefits and they help you succeed in spite of the language itself.

> They advertised open standards and then did a bait-and-switch to proprietary systems

I'd love more detail on this. We have made major investments in open source and ensuring Vercel is an open platform.

◆ The Vercel Build Output API exposes all the underlying primitives of the platform for every framework to take advantage of (https://vercel.com/blog/build-output-api)

◆ We've diligently invested in standard-compliant API signatures. Serverless Functions adopted the Node.js request / response standard (as opposed to e.g.: AWS Lambda inventing a new one) and Edge Functions adopt the Web standard. We've joined WinterCG to foster this standardization effort (https://wintercg.org/)

◆ We've always invested in API compatibility between local development, self hosting and Vercel infrastructure (e.g.: `vc dev` is open source https://github.com/vercel/vercel).

◆ We're continuing to invest here. Next.js and Vercel build outputs are always getting more detailed, we're exploring support for running build outputs locally (`vc start`) as an open source offering, etc.

> they don’t seem to care much about security

We added support for your feature request, and security remains the top priority of the company. Some recent ships:

Right, that's what I was referring to. See also XMPP. But at the end of the day, Google's goal is not to kill distributed email. The risk reward in terms of anti-trust simply isn't there. The value from the data they get from onboarding accounts is already superscalar since they only need one recipient from each message in order to get the data. Therefore its fair to call it Embrace/Extend if we squint a bit, but there's no Extinguish play for Gmail (just collateral damage of spam control).
