I remember someone writing an article about becoming a couchsurfing host to have one-night stands. By the end of the first summer the dude

- learned how to reliably tell if his guest was willing to sleep with her hosts before inviting her
- came up with a rehearsed tour of the city, complete with a spontaneous romantic lunch in a hidden gem of a cafe (with a reliable poker-face waiter)
- ironed out the kinks in the "from the front door to the bedroom" follow-up routine
I first learned of programming with C, C++, Java, and Python. I was unimpressed and remain so. It wasn't until I learned of visual dataflow languages and functional languages, in particular functional-first or pragmatic functional languages that I began to like programming.

But, I was also not indoctrinated by a computer science degree, which probably has a lot to do with it.
You should try F#. It infers all the types so you get the benefits of type checking without the noise
Soon after chess AI beat all humans, people found that human-AI-hybrid players were still better than pure AI.

That time has past, and now having humans in the team only make the AI worse.

Will that happen here? Possibly, but not certain, even with superhuman capacity:

I suspect, but am not certain, that art is a peacock tail for humans — a signal where the point is to be extravagant and expensive — which means that all automation of it, including pre-AI automation, results in that-which-is-now-cheap no longer counting as "art" in the minds of increasingly many humans.

Some of the famous renaissance still life paintings are recreated a million times a day as people use their phones to take photos of their food. The hard ones are art, the common ones are…?
You have concurrency and parallelism everywhere but not threads.
Working on a system where we had no code review procedure, I liked that the worst developpers were also the ones respecting the least the codebase style, so that we could easily identify their code and check it when stumbling on it.
I think you're right that this is the reason why some people avoid that.
I take structured notes with Obsidian, then add a backlink to the resource. No bookmarking anymore because there's a probability of exactly 0% that I ever click on bookmarked resource again. Google indexes content, so you should index your own with obsidian and add semantic research on top.
Choosing what facts to present, when to present them, and to what audience, is itself a judgement. Pretending its not is deceptive.
I tried to do something similar for building highly optimized and slimmed down (only use flags that are needed) for container images (installing with different root path) but got some library issues in resulting system and gave up. maybe I'll try the same with prefix. I'm curious if compiling everything with exact expected CPU and LTO would result in measurable performance gains.
Keep a collection of unsolved problems at the back of your mind?

Task lists from the text clipboard for sharing without the fat and nonsense
It's handy when a list is sent as text and you need to make a checklist out of it or share it with someone else to do it together.
Practice that beats theory is just a new theory, so practice can't beat theory, it can only beat out of date or simplistic theories.

I understand what the saying means, but it gives people so many bad ideas about the value of theories and science or how to work with them. In practice you start out based on general and overly simplistic theories, and then expand the theories in the direction you need to solve your problems, and then that creates a new theory you base your practice around.

Wandering around willy-nilly without testing isn't good practice, while going deliberately with lots of testing and logic is what we mean when we talk about theory.
What I don’t hear you acknowledging is that partners without relationships skills are significantly less likely to last — or for that matter, that you even value relationships skills. If you don’t, that’s fine, but you to me are both missing my core point and also in my opinion much less likely to actually end up in a meaningful relationship.
Just reformat it for reading and reformat it again before committing I guess
Recovering Gentoo user here. I have lost so many hours to the time sink that is incomplete system package updates on Gentoo. Moved to Nix and never looked back.

On Nix either the install - and occasional build - succeeds and I enter the new environment, or it fails and I don't. In the worst case scenario where the build succeeds but something is funky I can just roll it back.

Now I have all this free time to lose to the time sink that is learning how to package applications in the Nix language.
They don't care. At all. From their POV, all that matters is market share and profit. The rest is PR.
Caring about races is very new, but Jews have been the subject of anti-semetic attacks for at least a thousand years, probably twice that.
Version control. Auto-formatting means you'll never, ever, have to deal with diffs where 50% of the changes are indentation, commas and line breaks.

There is still room for 'style' in how you write code, what the code does is what matters. Formatting simply removes noise.
Have GIMP developers ever discussed usability? Because it sure doesn't show!

The alternative to Photoshop is that I gave $40 to Pixelmator and now I have an awesome photo editor that does plenty.
Even in English, I have been fighting to delete https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magyarab_people but I simply gave up.

Look at the sources.

There's "Detailed report about a Hungarian expedition" and if you click on the first article, https://web.archive.org/web/20080605115547/http://www.mno.hu... it literally starts with "There are no such people as Magyarabs". Second sentence "The black Hungarians straight out of a romantic grand novel do not exist."

The other reference https://web.archive.org/web/20050213015534/http://w3.datanet... now that's a neonazi rag.

The whole thing started when in the 30s a couple Egyptians decided to bilk a Hungarian noble wandering around there and got rewarmed by a hustler in the sixties who spent two semesters in Cairo then sold himself as an expert back in Hungary in all matters Egyptian and got a posh job for himself at the public radio as such. His Egyptian dictionary was so shit it never got printed, though. Him sharing a name with one of the most famous archeologists didn't hurt his prospects, of course.

Then in the 90s said rag dug up the whole thing again for nationalistic reasons and now people consider it fact despite the expedition that was sent to find them found nothing. Quite obviously. And, by now, people consider it fact mostly because of Wikipedia...

As for subtlety and for why all your translations are completely pointless can be not found in the Holocaust article https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zsid%C3%B3_holokauszt_Magyaror... which, while does paint a picture of cruelty from the Hungarians, almost completely lacks the work of Krisztián Ungváry -- and it's quite important work. It was he who have found in the records that Hungarians sent many more trainloads of Jews than the Germans asked for, so much so the Germans told them to slow down. And now look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kriszti%C3%A1n_Ungv%C3%A1ry and tell me, do you see any mention of him being an important Holocaust researcher despite even the Hungarian holocaust article uses him as a source once and uses another article of his as "additional information". (And of course he is only quoted on the forced labor battalions not on the Holocaust itself in Hungary.) Perhaps most importantly, where is
https://doi.org/10.1515/9789633861738-007 from this page, not to mention several non-scholarly articles?

What is missing is telling.

As for the influence being known, Klára Sándor was explicitly asked to edit https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sz%C3%A9kely%E2%80%93magyar_ro... and she refused.

> One thing I notice myself doing a lot is using lots of empty lines in my code. Sometimes I go really overboard with it, to the point that every other line is empty. I feel like it helps me read the code more easily. This seems sort of like the antithesis of that.

One trick for that is making your height line higher in focused mode in the editor.

An ex co-worker had this on VSCode and looked very useful.
I think if they were planning to do this they wouldn't have sent Joe Biden out and said "alright, drop a little hint that you're going to bomb Nordstream in the event of a Ukraine invasion". And if they were planning to do so and Biden blurted it out (because ... he's Joe Biden) I imagine any plans to bomb the pipeline would surely have been scrapped as he'd have just given the game away.

More realistic is the old man who has famously delivered gaffe after gaffe, who has repeatedly stumbled on his speeches and said dumb shit, said something a bit inelegant that everyone's now seizing on like a bunch of qanoners baking the latest q-drop on 8chan
I have some friends at the National Upcycled Computing Collective (https://www.nuccinc.org/) that have been talking about the untapped resource of older devices for several years.

I highly recommend checking them out.
The article points to two problems, one being corporations profiting from other peoples copyrighted works with just an algorithm. Thats awful for sure, but the actual utility of content generated that way is questionable at best (Also, because it's new, there is a bit of a fad for it). The other is more existential and pertains to AI replacing humans in the cultural process. I don't think it's reasonble to assume this will happen anytime soon, given the state of technology which is just nowhere near enough capable for that. By the time it would be, you'd have a fully artifical human mind.
To be fair I am also biased: I am responsible for creating an interface that uses Stable Diffusion https://capsizegames.itch.io/ai-runner, but the program is a result of my bias not the root cause.
I totally agree with your first paragraph. There should have been code reviews and new developers should have been coached.

About Rust... I'm open-minded, let's see what happens.
I am confused as well. Maybe you could share a reference? I am trying to understand how this would affect 401K/IRAs for people leaving the US.
Those question was part of the original discussions that the pirate movement made around 2005. Copyright was viewed as being about a single person copying a work. The person who uploaded shouldn't be allowed to be charged with the same crime, and the site that connected the uploaded and downloaded was just a meeting place.

Lobby organizations for rights owners presented their own theories, one was that concept of "making available" a copyrighted work. They argued that the upload was equally if not more guilty of infringement than the downloaded. They also accused the website owners for facilitating and enabling.

Then came the pirate bay case and a glaring issue struck the pirate movement. If technology can make creative solutions using code to bypass copyright, courts can in turn make creative solutions around law. The law that was used to charge the founders of the pirate bay was originally intended to combat bike bars when those places was used as headquarters for illegal gangs, a far step away from a website hosting files which enable two people on the internet to transfer files.

So we can go around and blame the AI for doing the infringement, or even the researcher who invented the math that created AI, but as with any creative technical solution around copyright we have to ask what creative solutions the lawyers and judges will make.
"there's a sentiment that "natural" smartness and hard-working smartness are two seperate things."

This is a huge problem in the dating market too. "Self improvement" implies that at one point one was a singificantly less high status individual... And that they are at risk of backsliding.

People who are naturally gifted or don't have to try have less risk of becoming unattractive later.

It's sexier, cooler, and more successful to be good at something without trying. I don't blame your kids.
Actually, I don’t agree with the whole date friends of friends or joining an existing social group is a good approach, or at the very least, it has pros and cons. When dating from a pool of like that, people tend to act significantly different and if short term relationship fails to become long term relationship, it generally has a negative impact on one of the individuals and/or group.
So the litigants are claiming that "YouTube doesn't have a download button" but they do have a download button. The trouble is that the download button is paywalled, and so if a free user presses it, they get a come-on to subscribe to a premium service that allows downloading. Now I don't know if it allows unlimited downloads or restricts them in some way determined by YouTube and/or the channel owners. But I did some trials of YouTube Music and they very much had download abilities built-in, whereby you could build a local library of DRM'd tunes and you could play that stuff even while you were offline. It was totally useful and enjoyable for me that I didn't need to be connected but I could have some albums of real, copyrighted music to listen to. But by the same token, the downloaded material was closely controlled by the app, so it wasn't like you could just extract mp3s of the stuff for any use whatsoever.

Now YouTube does permit the uploader to set alternate licenses on their videos, which include free Creative Commons licensing, and Public Domain designations. So not every YouTube video is "All Rights Reserved", and download software (or builtin download buttons) should be able to take that into account. (Even though, as a private citizen I'm still within my rights to download that ARR video and use it privately without distributing it!)

It seems fairly obvious that there are plenty of non-infringing uses of the download software. It also seems to me that the download software really has to jump through hoops to circumvent some barriers put up by YouTube, and perhaps some of those barriers are there because YouTube does indeed have a "premium" download button they'd like to protect, rather than merely some licensing concerns about copyrighted content. We'll see how it plays out.

The rest was important context, IMO. It was less “this already has a name” and more “this is the very essence of warfare”. And has been for tens of thousands of years.

Honestly I am moving to a work-mandated IDE (very modern) and all I want is a big button saying "turn off all the helpers".

I am I suspect being grouchy, but I don't think that saving me some typing strokes is worth all that effort.

I love linting and really like real-time linting and syntax catching. But they usually just underline my typos. Anything else (like trying to prevent me from making the typos as I type, or worse adding in brackets just annoys me.

I don't want to invest time in learning an IDE with a million knobs - i can write my own functions if I see the need - just mostly I need to work on actual work.
>> wasted because restaurants prefer to deliver too large portions because they are afraid of bad Google/Yelp/... reviews...

Not everybody eats restaurant food for entertainment. Sometimes you can't cook and a larger portion means leftovers and usually more calories per dollar.

There's nothing wrong with large portions. If you didn't want that much food, go to a different restaurant, or a buffet where you can select exactly how much food you want.

And what large portions are we talking about anyway? That peaked in the 90s just like your bug splattered windshields.
A performing team helps!

On the whole, though, it's easiest to do that with low expectation setting. If I can convince management that what my team is doing is Very Hard and Very Important, my team will be perceived as high-performing. Unless the CEO is sitting in on sprints, except for extreme cases, they won't know better.

If you're in a large corporation, and your team does more with less, but your director constantly sees the output of another team, who gets laid off at the next layoffs? As a manager, how are the incentives split between managing your reports, and managing your director, the CEO, and the rest of the org?

This problem isn't specific to management. It's any time you've set up incentive structures, from teaching-to-the-test at schools, to how we select the CEO themselves.
Exactly. Who cares where the data came from. Data is data.
I don't understand why they didn't use something like an esp for the wireless. That seems to be more open. Is it a cost thing. Or is the esp equally closed but has a front end that isn't?
> so it can be a bit jarring to have a sequence of strings and not know whether the result is a function or a value

I think that the nice thing about F# is it is always a value. Function evaluation and currying can be taught fairly readily, especially given that once you get it, there's no gotchas.

> Furthermore some experienced F# devs love making custom symbols, which can also obfuscate the code

I agree that is painful when it occurs, but that style should absolutely be de-recommended and is so by Don Syme. I haven't really encountered it much in my personal development though (or I have avoided it).

Only Eastern Europe. Western Europe (incl Germany) and the Nordics have between 30-60% iPhones. [0] Also Albania, for some reason.

That's also pretty much the browser distribution you get when looking at analytics data from various European countries, and it matches what I see people use here (Germany).

Aside from, you know, the vast uptake of hybrid seeds, which couldn't be saved for reuse either.

Anyway, why exactly is this tradition so important that it would swamp the social benefits from improved plants obtained from GMOs (and such benefits must exist, or else farmers would not use these seeds)? This sounds like reflexive conservatism, wanting an old thing just because it is old, and damning changes just because they are changes.
>> Restaurants can be forced to limit portion sizes (which might also have side effects to improve public health, aka obesity epidemic).

Pricing out poor fat people from restaurants will not solve the obesity epidemic. It will drive them to Doritos.
Creativity is about living everyday life with an open attitude. In the kitchen you mix technique, tradition, process and ingredients. But the real sauce is human magic. I'd say, bring diversity in your life, experience freedom, but then go back to your life and see how you can change it 10%. The rest is cumulative interest on that capital.
The National Upcycled Computing Collective (https://www.nuccinc.org/) is a group dedicated to this concept.

They are doing some very interesting work along these lines.
Of course he will say that.

‘Microsoft co-founder believes that his company’s own investment in the AI startup that created ChatGPT will change the world.’

It is open source AI models that are large in parameters, transparent and smaller in size that are the ones that will permanently change the world and will disrupt OpenAI’s closed AI SaaS business plans.
The thing is, your system requires a lot of discipline. If I had discipline, I would almost not need a tool :/
Next you will read a paper about something you are not an expert in and will think every word is fact and truth.
Imagine if lawmakers got this hung up on indentation. Not the wording, correctness, or effect. The indentation. We would say they were fiddling while Rome burns.

If you are working on your own you do you. If you are working in a team pick a style that is okay and has great tooling and support in different editors.

As this exchange proves everyone has opinions about this stuff. Standardisation is more important than optimal choice especially as everyone thinks theirv choice is optimaland yours is terrible. It doesn't have a huge impact, solve it once and make it go away so you can focus on everything else.

Just set git to format everyone's code on checkin and never talk about it in a code review again.
So you'd rather drive a cheap, old, ugly car than an moderately priced decent looking car?
this paper only has one author, so i assume the use of "we" throughout is the "royal we"? i thought papers were meant to use constructs such as "github was searched", rather than "we searched github", but perhaps that's just we getting old.
I wrote a small app to scan my comments and stories on hacker news. It would dump them into a postgres database and use the full text search to normalize the text of the articles to make for easy searching at a later date when I inevitably would think “where did I read that thing about this?”
You are correct my comment did not make sense.

What I meant was that types may be inferred but that is not the same as dynamic typing.
Good for you, you are in the trend, may the gods of the multiverse be with you.:)

I personally have no interest in generative art at all.

Just received my new handmade brushes from Escoda. Waiting for a spring to paint me some landscapes.

I get my inspiration just as a generative AI, from data set from countless artists before me.

The difference?

I am still human and love the process which is not driven by the profit margins or time to market optimization.
Sometimes I'll spend 15 minutes going through my (unordered) bookmarks and put them into folders, in the context of the things I'm working on. Some also get deleted.

There's a higher likelihood of them being deleted if they can't fit into a folder shared by other bookmarks.
No, vast amounts of people that see being open minded as a negative predictor of a desirable attribute. If I had to guess, your sampling is biased. For example, someone dating in a rural region would have much less success sharing that they’re open minded, since it’s not a cultural norm.
