Exciting stuff in the search space but my guess is Microsoft messes it up. They have pretty bad products all round and when they do have a good product they often mess up the next version.

Google's AI tech will be as good or better. I also think the AI tech will quickly become a commodity.
when did "vaporware" change meaning from "something that has been talked about repeatedly, for a long time, but never ended up releasing" to simply "something that is not out right now"? I've seen this word misused similarly a lot recently.

This is going to be unpopular, but business has these priorities: debt-holders(sometimes employees are here), owners, customers, employees, everything else. Articles that try to re-order these priorities really get it wrong. If being an "elite" means you are holding debt or own shares, you are very much
Especially considering EEE is specifically a strategic attack on standards used by your competitors. Microsoft's strategy was based on seeing open standards as a threat to their dominance. You embrace the standard by providing compatibility with it. Once established in the marketplace, you extend the standard so your product is better in some nonstandard way that breaks compatibility with competitors. Then you use your differentiation to assert market dominance and extinguish the competitors. I'm not sure how this allegedly applies to OpenAI.
Your computer could use the additional memory. Your ears physically cannot use the additional frequencies.

The "labor" vs. "means of production" dichotomy is just as false and pernicious as the "labor" vs. "capital" dichotomy. "Means of production" are capital. That includes skills.

> Capitalists control the means of production

As far as machines in factories go, yes, the owners of the company own those, the workers do not (unless the company is a worker cooperative, those do exist).

As far as skills go, though, no, capitalists do not control those--the people who have the skills do. But they need to realize that their skills represent ownership of capital in order to make the best use of their control over them. Many, if not most, "workers" do not realize this--and hence they are at the mercy of the "capitalists" who do.
Doesn't matter. Google is done. Mozilla's thing will be trying to out-race Apple on Privacy. Mozilla should stick with WebKit, only allow more granular control.
I don't know any details on this project, but what I read from space between lines is that this could be a handy tool to have a better position on the annual negotiations of default search engine setup. If you can have just a 5% discount from Apple by having this choice, the whole engineering cost would be immediately paid off.
you have an answer in marx's capital: all surplus is wage theft because the capitalist, who does nothing, gets money from those who do the work. so any more money you get is not free, it's just a slight reduction in the money which is getting stolen from you.

Ok but it could be 3rd party data instead. It could be live open seating data, etc etc.
Ok, I see where the problem is. The 10 people requiring the 100 treatment in your example will cost 1000. That's one dollar per person, not one tenth. For the group of 100, 1 person will require the 100 treatment and it is still 1 dollar per person. You very obviously made a mistake and I incorrectly assumed it was in your calculation of the costs for the second group. The underlying point is still the same though, and you should be concerned that such a simple relationship is not intuitive to you. I'm not going to apologize because I still feel that this is indicative of emotional reasoning on your part. If this sounds condescending then that's only because this is about as simple as math can possibly get and yet you still failed to recognize the glaring logical contradiction.
It's really fascinating to think about isolation and what that does to a culture. The almost two hundred years in which Japan implemented self ordered isolation is important to consider when comparing their modern culture to other, especially Asian, nations.

I feel like Brazil, being the only country in South America that speaks Portuguese, is a similar case study.

Being different and not following the herd is a strength.
Yeah, there is perhaps a data usefulness duck curve. First data useful for specific immediate problems, not a lot of use for a while after that, then 15 or 20 years later, the big picture trends start to provide value for big decision making.

Not many orgs keep their data that long, though. Or even think about the future that far.

Oh, I have!

It’s a balance. I more-or-less learned the first time that I needed to be getting more out of it than the “release success”; nowadays I’d codify a specific part of that as “always carve out the time to improve your skills as part of the project.”

I’m teaching the computer how to do something, at the same time I’m teaching myself how to do it.

That said, when that’s not possible - At least one project had at least a few weeks (it’s been awhile) of stupid wrestling with undocumented Xcode CLI internals. That was nearly completely wasted time. It sucked then, and it (dilutedly) sucks now.
> If you think about your retirement prospects as amassing wealth by optimizing the "Area under the graph", it's really important to build a professional network so if one job opportunity ends, you can quickly work your network to find another similarly paying job.

Do you believe the supermarket shelf stockers think this way?

Yes, you've come to understand yourself to be in a different socio-economic class than supermarket shelf-stackers, the class of people who "optimize the area under the graph". But what you fail to see is that your employer has no incentive for maintaining your status in a different socio-economic class, and lots of incentives for changes that drive you, the exalted, mutually loved, always cooperative SWE into the same life+work situation as a supermarket shelf stocker.

I'm talking about not wanting homosexuality or transexuality presented as an option by teachers to my elementary or middle school kids. I don't want school age girls to have to compete with boys in sports. I don't want my kids to get penalized while looking for a job because they are white or male, I want them to succeed or fail based on their merits.

DEI that I have experienced in the work place is very aggressively anti white and anti male and openly advocates against giving women and minorities a step up over them. DEI teaches that white men are aggressive and old fashioned and essentially a detriment and should learn their place. White supremacy is positioned as the source of all wrongs in the world including the spate of anti asian violence perpetrated by other minorities a couple years ago. I am not presenting this opinion as something I have heard about rather I am presenting it as something I have experienced (openly, not inferred) over my last few jobs.
There are several chromium forks that do more than just "cosmetically reskin" the browser and they definitely don't have teams as big as Google's.

Additionally, nothing forces a company/group to merge that "firehose of changes". If google ever oversteps sufficiently, there is always the possibility that companies that are maintaining forks will stop integrating those changes.

All native GUI toolkits from the last three decades allow you to reflow elements in the way you describe. Both CSS and native toolkits make it simple to express how elements move and stretch in response to window resizing.

Where CSS falls down is anything user-resizable. For example, a split view that collapses instead of cropping a text label. The CSS "resize" property is awful.

This "news" item mischaracterizes reality. It's not "many". It's "few" or "some" because no managers will get 20-50 IC direct reports of SWEs or PEs. It's flattening some spots of unnecessary middle management. That's it.
I rarely if ever use the question mark with 'Option' when working with rust, and it's been just fine.

I do use it a lot with Result though. But if you have any question about the return type you could[1] just look at the return type for the current function you're in.

[1] I think there's a way to define custom types on nightly, and I wouldn't be surprised if it let you map custom types on Result/Option, but I don't actually know.
Sure, I use Monero, Zcash and mixers. I absolutely can't imagine using BitCoin or similar currencies the plain way so everybody would see precisely where and when, for how much and, indirectly, what I buy - this seems insane, do people really do this?

The only problem still making me feel slightly uncomfortable is I don't understand how do Monero and Zcash achieve anonymity, how is it possible to transfer money without registering who (whose wallet) pays who. Ideally you should understand how do your tools work. But I don't care enough to dedicate time to study this.
Yup, that's right. Non-repo data (releases, avatars, packages, etc..) can all be hosted in s3-compat storage.

These bigger companies have moats e.g. life insurance is difficult business to get into and disrupt. They also have strategies to acquire smaller companies and to expand in different markets. This essentially allows them to run for a long, long time once their brand is good.
I am at loss towards the tech-landscape right now. A year ago, everyone was talking about hot the market was and how you could easily switch jobs for a 40% raise. Now all the megacorps are doing lay-offs and here comes Nintendo with the opposite approach. Why are the business decisions between Ninendo and the tech-giants so different? Would anyone have been surprised to see "Nintendo will lay of 10% of its workers" ?
Can't the other side of that coin be true?

Luddites ranting about the impending of society as a result of the latest tech?

The tech is a tool. Your example is key. I don't shove the educational tools at the kids and expect magic. I ask them what they're using it for.

The issue isn't the tech. It's the inherent generational superiority and absentee parenting.

If you work on a site with production traffic that you care about, you won't want users to see intermittent errors.

Even if you are OK with the occasional error like that, if your deployment system DOES produce intermittent errors, you'll deploy less often... which can become a significant drag on your overall culture of shipping new code.

You'll end up wanting to bundle fixes together and deploy them once a twice a week, where the same team with zero-downtime deploys might happily ship new code to production several times an hour.

So I see zero-downtime deploys as a very impactful way to encourage a healthy culture around shipping code often.

They're also one of those things that's relatively easy to engineer into a system early on, but ferociously difficult to add to a system years down the line when it's already serving large amounts of production traffic and has lots of existing code already built for it.

Apple is selling HomePods and iPhones for a profit. But Amazon is/was selling Echos for a loss, in the hope that they would drive additional Prime music subscriptions and lower friction to Amazon purchases. That didn’t happen, and so the product line all-devices-sold-with-Alexa has lost Amazon money. The equivalent comparison, all devices with Siri, has made Apple a ton of money.

Considering the alternative at work was an old Bugzilla instance, and code review feedback was done by email, adopting Phabricator was a breath of fresh air: good engineering-oriented tickets (subtasks, task grouping), good code review experience + integration with tickets, a wiki, and a few extra... yeah it really rocked.

Of course, if you compare to Jira's ticket-management experience, and nowaday's github code review, sure, it's quite jank.
But for a brief moment, in a period of time at work, Phabricator really shined!
This varies quite a bit from the answers my utility company (SMUD) gives. Sunroof says I'll break even in 6 years, my utility estimates 19 years.

The biggest difference between their estimates is that Sunroof thinks the panels can cover 99% of my energy costs, so I'll only need to spend $6,000 over the next 20 years on electricity. My power utility estimates that the panels can only cover 80% of my electricity, and I would still spend $26,000 over those 20 years.

Just in that comparison, I trust my power utility more (99% coverage seems unrealistic). If they're otherwise correct, 19 years to break even is hardly a compelling case for installing solar. And my roof is well-suited for solar too.

Wish there was a way for customers to opt-in increasing the percentage they paid for a product or service from a company in a way that any employees directly tied to the related service or product received the money. Only thing is that if the company had access to the data and amounts paid, they would simply increase the cost of the related service or product.
The meaning of "vaporware" has evolved over time. It originally referred to software or hardware products that were announced or promised to be released, but never actually materialized or were significantly delayed. However, as technology and the pace of innovation have accelerated, the definition of vaporware has broadened to encompass any product or service that is promised or rumored, but has not yet been released. As a result, the word is now sometimes used more broadly to refer to things that are not currently available, even if they are in development and likely to be released in the future.

Importantly, that C code (and assembly) is in the guts of crypto primitives. Those tend to be a lot easier to test than higher level X.509 parsing code, which I think is all done in safe Rust.

But for sure, taking a dependency on RusTLS from C code isn't a "boring" choice, and I wouldn't pretend to be confident that that would all go smoothly for a big project.

That's correct. It is not due to load, gitea.com already has most of the projects repos migrated already, just not the main one due to ratelimits and exporting all the issues. Gitea.com has thousands of users, and multi-TB traffic monthly on a fairly modest setup.

> The possibilities are endless... why attribute success to one single person?

I don't disagree, but this same critique can be applied to anyone, yet it disproportionately gets applied to CEOs. How can a SWE justify their $300k compensation? After all, the fact they hold that job can all be explained by circumstance, parenting, genes, being born in the right country, etc.
I believe labor costs are generally much lower in Japan.
"Speeding kills more than 10,000 people each year in the U.S."

That's a little misleading. Excessive speed is a factor in about 30% of US traffic fatalities. That can have an overlap with other factors, like DUI, inattentive driving, or failure to yield. Speed itself is not the issue, as we see with lower fatality per mile on the autobahn, including areas without limits or with high limits. Speed mixed with bad decisions are the real problem. Driver education, testing, and consistent enforcement are really where the safety gains are.
