There are needs where a focused recommendation algorithm like TikTok can still be helpful. And that is to go through a daily flow of financial news which might or might not affect your portfolio and/or might provide additional opportunities. Yes. it is possible to read all of this through an RSS feed or Bloomberg, or Twitter, or Reddit. But none of the have useful recommendation algorithms that can surface personalized information.
#uber shares plunged in September on a single hack! And it’s happening AGAIN!
Then, the company that developed the Mobility-as-a-Service concept was taken for a ride when a teenage hacker phished an employee’s log-in data and made his way into its cloud-based data banks. This time, it’s one of the industry’s major ransomware groups. Client and worker info, finances, & everything else a malicious agent could ask for.
Check out our special report in novoShield’s blog to find out more about the company, the perps and the hacks.
It's not really about the money itself but the amount of work done. If people get less work done, that's less value added. Less 'stuff' is produced but the same wage is paid - regardless of what happens with inflation.

Whether that's good or bad is another question, as is the question of whether it even is happening or not.
It seems to have approval workflows for documents, which is sadly missing from google docs.
Yeah, "what if Pirate Bank but BIGGER??". ::facepalm::

I think I see your point, but in my thought experiment, this future AI will be bootstrapped from the current accumulated knowledge of programming and software engineering. I don't think it would be back to square one. At the very least it will be able to write code in whatever human programming languages are around. I'm taking as given in this thought experiment that, given the requirements, humans don't need to write any code whatsoever.

My point then reduces to, what happens next? The machine probably doesn't need the abstraction layer of programming languages. It might even have its own, layer(s) which make no sense to us, or it writes machine code. The question then hinges on how we, as humans, would validate such a system.
Some fast food restaurants are in the experience business, so not strictly so, although I am sure that some food produced in the food business would be considered fast food, so I suppose it doesn't preclude it either. I'm not sure the question really overlaps with the discussion, although perhaps I don't fully understand what you are asking.
We reviewed the progress made over 2022, reported on the current status of the group activities, and discussed our goals for 2023. We also touched on the strategic projects spearheaded by the Working Group includingrobotperfbenchmarks, Robotics MCU (robo-v-mcu) and the Robotics Processing Unit (RPU).
Or another AI could just do that.
There's that new government I.T. development office that was set up under Obama. Give the task to them.
Because you still need to test that stuff before using it. And yes, if it was accute, testing and certification would go fast (see COVID vaccines), but it would still be tested. In reality, having a platform able to carry nukes is Germanies way to be, and stay, part of NATO's nuclear weapon councils. For sure, Germany could also buy Rafales and use French nukes, but that would create such a public outcry that the only result would be no nukes at all anymore for Germany regardless of whose nukes Germany is borrowing.

Edit: The reason for the outcry over French nukes is not that they are French, but rather the need to change the laws around nuclear participation to allow the switch. And that legislative changes would lead to a ton of public debate everyone wants to avoid, as this debate would kill nuclear participation in general. So nobody in governmant wants to take this risk, hence the procurement of a US platform to replace the aging Tornado fleet as a carrier of US nukes.
But then are you looking at the git context of all the comments you come across ?

I'd argue you could do the same on methods and class you want more context on, removing the need for the majority of comments, and most companies will have the associated ticket numbers or design discussions attached to the MR/PR.

I think there will still be rare situations where comments are absolutely needed, but in these rare cases they should probably refer to an external resource (a bug report for a specific library, an incident that required a specific fix, etc.)
Does anyone else feel like this is slightly overblown? From my perspective it was a localised and relatively limited risk and had fairly obvious and achievable corrective actions with a relatively good chance of success.

It intrigues me that this seems to be perceived as something so calamitous/ risky.
The why should be clearly explained in the Jira ticket associated with the commit.
Comments are useful only to explain non obvious corner cases and invariant.
You can write whatever you want in your Jira instead of polluting the code for everyone.
I like how this is going, but I'm missing a few things here:

> We can turn a pointer into a bounds checked array by "slicing" it:

> int *p = (int*) malloc(10);
> int a[..] = p[0 .. 10];

When `p` is a parameter in a function, the function cannot know that it can create a slice of up to 10 elements (I assume that the `p[0 .. 10]` creates an array indexed from 0 - 9).

What if the line was:

int a[..] = p[0..12]

Do we still get undefined behaviour?

> A bounds checked array can be turned into a pointer:

> int *p = &a[3]; // point to 3rd element of a[..]

Assuming that a indexes from 0 to 9, what happens when we use p with an out of range index, for example:

int *p = &a[8];
blah = p[3];

My main concern is how to tell other functions that the array has a maximum size, and how to determine (inside a function) what the maximum length of its parameters is.
Why call it temporal correlation when it neither denies nor establish causation? what can establish causation in this case? Unless one attempt to go back in time, recognize he is not banned yet he has put an issue in the tracker. Source hut requests were denied as would be expected from a corporate machine. Now the machine realized it should do damage control. we can repeat this test and check for causation where corporations do damage control without the need for time travel.
Precisely. A couple more: 隼人 (hayato), 盗人 (nusutto).

Or we could enumerate the pronunciations of 日: 日々、日曜日 (which is top-tier insane), 日本、春日、本日、明日、明後日、今日 (take your pick which one I mean), 昨日 (ditto), 一日 (ditto), 二日、十四日〜十五日、二十日〜二十一日｡｡｡

One can marvel at its complexity - relish it even - but one cannot deny it.
I can read only a limited number of kanji (or rather, words written with kanji), but even that makes reading much easier. Books for small children are written in Hiragana, with spaces, and in theory that should be as easy to read as English.. after all, it's easy to learn Hiragana, anyone can do that in a short time, and with practice you can learn to read it fast. But it's still tricky to read all-Hiragana sentences, even with spaces. Not sure I can explain why, more than the usual (and true) argument about the particularly large number of homonyms in Japanese. It's more than that. It's just much faster and easier to read 私 than わたし

Agreed, but it doesn’t solve every problem. And then there are the purely operational issues; for example a few days ago autovacuum was never able to completely finish vacuuming one particular table, but then the problem mysteriously went away and now it’s fine. Wonderful.

"Past that I can't quote a regular person I interact with on weekly basis."

The establishment promulgated term for this is "social distancing."
Only yesterday I encountered a fantastic example. I have to implement an API, there is a swagger/openAPI doc for it, but still, the real interaction and meaning of the calls can be a bit hard to grasp. But the developers provide an example application (in C#).

I expected something basic that implements the login flow and some of the more important calls. Instead I found something that could be described as an C# architecture example application. If I wanted to learn C#, I think I could learn a lot about application patterns from it. MVVM, how to separate the concerns into separate "packages" for reusability and the likes.
What I can't really learn from it (without already being a C# pro, I work in other environments) is how to use the API.

Comparisons sounds totally useful, added it to my backlog. Thank you!
Yeah, a real shame. I'll admit though, I'm in the camp that preferred the older version (except for the godawful monetization scheme) to the reboot, but with more development time it probably would've convinced me when it got more polished.
But hey, at least you can still play it and all cards are free! now if only they had released the apparently almost finished second set of cards....
How can anyone look at the record of the F-35 and think anything other than it is a complete boon doggle? Just look at it. It's a fat turd of a plane that cannot turn, and they keep crashing.

I guess people will tell themselves whatever they have to in order to believe in western military supremacy. How quickly we forget that the USA can't win a war and is really only good at bombing civilians from altitude.
I'd rather live in a country where authorities are overly cautious and transparent than secretive and negligent.
I believe you are expected to use visual studio to manage all this crap... And debugging in it was awful years ago, SSMS was slightly less worse IMHO.

That was CDE and for sure nothing like KDE or Gnome.
Just a note that there are no direct helium sensors in these drives. The status is inferred indirectly through some thermal sensors, conductivity, or something similar. I've read that the readings of the helium value are not very good and that it only puts out readings with granularity steps of 10-20% each. It's not great.
IMO, it is better to err on the side of too much comments, as comments are easier to delete than code
The irony, I was coming to write this very comment. But simply said, it's a logical idea.

In a world of a million concepts, there are a trillion of possible directed associations between pairs of them, and each of them may be multi-valued. Say, what's a real-world relation between "ChatGPT" and "nighmare"? A good thinker will be able to find or come up with many that nobody has seen before, beyond the ones which, due to our 'social prior', are evident. What happens when instead of two, there are three or four concepts?

I would go further and say that parroting is often more complicated than being creative, you have to find those ideas to rehash first, and then rank them by popularity and efficacy at your goal, e.g. publicity or acceptance. In other words, you need to be able to "read the room", or "compute the social prior".
Tell that to the driver if the capsule would have been stuck in a tire instead.
Dangerous items should be prioritised.
On the world stage, this is not even a small blip.

But the fear of radiation is a deep seated one, cultivated over the last 80 years by constant bombardment (pun intended) of information and media showing the dangers and hazards of runaway nuclear fission.
Scraped 15 websites, got a good pipeline that ingests and cleans the data once the scraping is done.

images get positioned according to simple logic (find top, find bottom, rotate, etc...)

data is cleaned and units are stripped accordingly (5 inches can be 5in 5 in 5inch 5inches etc...)

so far it's really trivial code so alot of measurements are getting dropped, need to go back in and fix it up and re-scrape/populate the data soon.
More like they are likely not telling about the stuff they are doing that is really dangerous.

Have you considered the structural implications of INTC float held by dividend ETFs alone[1], and how certain fund managers would be compelled to take action if all of a sudden Intel just stopped distributing a dividend? E.g. compare INTC holdings of Vanguard VYM[2] v. VanEck SMH[3] for about 5 minutes.

> How can anyone look at the record of the F-35 and think anything other than it is a complete boon doggle?

Proper use of bribes can make any plane look fantastic to the buyer.
The closest competitor in this race was probably the SAAB Gripen, which would win out on several categories (Cost per flight hour, maintenance cost and complexity, ground turnaround time, more capable AA missiles until at least 2027, more local production). So while the decision to go with F-35 of several "almost" Gripen buyers is understandable, it was by no means a walk over. Few buyers of F-35 will have much local manufacturing and technology transfer, for example. It's basically buying off Lockheed's shelf, paying US wages rather than domestic ones. The sticker price will look similar but mean different things.

The deal does mention "opportunities for the Finnish defense industry related to the direct manufacture and maintenance of the F-35..." which I'm not sure exactly what it is. I thought the US and Lockheed were extremely reluctant to this kind of transfer.
The only reason we DIDN'T move during Covid was because of the school, otherwise we'd be living in the sticks in a huge house that's 50% cheaper and 200% bigger.

> Code doesn't lie, comments do

Code doesn't tell the full story either. And code can contain bugs so one cannot fully trust the code too.

If code/comments are out of sync it is likely that someone changed the code and forgot to update comments (which is possible to verify using VCS logs) or it may be that the comment stated the intention right but the code has a bug. Code+comments like a parity check to me - if they agree it is good, if not - I have to investigate if the comment or the code is correct.
100% a good point. will get it done!

> We don't put all our code in one file to solve "it needs to be visible!" problems, we shouldn't do it with our docs either

You make comparisons without considering the reasons.
We split code up into multiple files because we cannot have 100% of the code on screen either way and huge files tend to be cumbersome. Whole IDE components are built just to show API docs and other parts of the code exactly where and when we need them. With that in mind it makes no sense to have important comments not be visible where and when we need them.

And even if those comments were in a separate file like you suggest you'd still need a comment in the code to make developers aware of the fact an important explanation of some obscure detail exists. If you don't then any change of that code might invalidate the documentation without anyone knowing, and then you're back at square one with lying comments/docs. Comment visibility also means it's visible when it needs to be updated.
How do you compile and test "// This method cannot be altered in any way because X tool will break" ?
Why I Don’t Use Spaces on macOS (2021)

It seems false to assume that people work less when working remotely. That is far from obvious. I personally think it is false, and have not seen any justification of it.

I understand arguments about people not eating business lunch near the office. Although it looks like home delivery and extra home office snacks, coffee, etc. would also cause spend, just in different areas as before.

Additionally, in places where the state pays for healthcare, having less stressed workers, having less traffic accidents (I assume, since less commutes) might overall decrease the amount of money spent on health and save some money for the state too.

It is not an easy thing to model IMO.
Someone absolutely did, and wrote controls for it, down to the calibration of the torque wrench.

Just as they thought of the failure modes of:

- cold fluoropolymers in rocket boosters
- graphite moderated water cooled reactors
- live ammunition on movie sets
- insurance products assuming uncorrelated risks in a correlated market
- etc

All of these things were known and controlled risks long before the event that realised them happened.
That's... surprising indeed!

What kind of domain was it?
Can we get a converter so that we don't have to use imperial units?
It is quite amazing that with the experience people like these co-founders have that they put that to use creating things that, on the face of it look like fairly obvious flops.

It really does highlight just how many people get lucky with one good idea.

In addition the AI side of things is enough to turn me off. We've supposedly got AI based recommendations on YouTube, however despite me never showing any interest I still get videos of someone holding up a product with their mouth wide open like a carp, or random minecraft content that I've repeatedly marked as being not interested in.
Even if less work gets done (citation needed, I think there are reasons why remote can increase productivity), you also don't have at least one major negative externality: pollution from commuting. There are also likely economic benefits: remote workers can move to areas that would otherwise suffer an economic drain from mass migration to large cities. Imagine how many other cities would benefit if most of us didn't have to live in the same six cities (in America).
Small birds' vision: Not so sharp but superfast
The word simple jumps on me as a semantically unpractical word. Simple can mean direct, as well as short. PG refers to simple as direct, i would argue. Especially when you read the last words of this text, when he talks about editing a draft. He describes how he achieves simplicity in his writing. That's the most important aspect of this text.
> From my perspective it was a localised and relatively limited risk

Localized? Yes. But limited? You can't see radiation. The absolute worst case would be someone getting it stuck into a tire or a shoe, spreading radiation everywhere they go.
All the money I spent on lunch in the city centre restaurants I've spent on restaurants close to my home.

I consider that as a win-win, supporting local businesses.
That's an argument against you working from home. My experience was that I worked just as effectively at home and had two hours a day extra that I could use for exercise, relaxing, and in fact a bit of extra work.
"not discovered" would've been more accurate than "not reported".
Funny thing, I did the same thing (used Jellyfin for several years, then Navidrome for probably a year) and now moved back to Spotify. I think the discovery of music in self-hosted apps is worse. I like to listen albums mostly but I always happened to listen to the same handful of albums, only because those were the first on my mind. I think Navidrome's smart playlists have potential though. Did you come up with a good way to rotate the music?
You won't believe how things changed since then.

You need to install at least dozen applications on macOS to come near to features/capabilities of a run of the mill KDE desktop.

GNOME also improved a ton, it seems, but I'm not using it for a long long time.

macOS is lean, but doesn't have the composability and flexibility of Linux at any level. Things designed to add this composability feels bolted on loosely and limited at utility.
Can you elaborate?

I don't think that this is something that can change through tech advances for the classifiers - in all cases the classifier is just flagging for investigation, it's not sufficient for any action. For plagiarism, appropriate evidence comes from a person comparing the submission with the possible source of plagiarism. For this one, the proper evidence would require getting confirmation that the student actually generated that data - e.g. identifying the exact tool and prompt that was used, or logs from the students' computer showing that this was done, or logs from the text generation service provider. All of those are quite tricky to get and perhaps even not possible.

The way Datomic handles facts, accumulating them and providing point-in-time queries, is very effective.

I think you are missing the context around nuclear anything in Australia.

We have no nuclear powerplants. We have no nuclear submarines. Large portions of the country are staunchly against mining uranium. Most people don't know We operate a single nuclear reactor that only produces medical isotopes. There is no nuance on anything nuclear here because it is almost completely absent from the country.
