I've been pondering the same thing![0] Essentially, one would get (checked-)exception-like behavior, except that performance would be better, and whether a function can fail or not would still need to be declared explicitly in its return type.

> But I guess that forcing individual trys makes you think harder about handling individual errors than just pushing the responsibility for error handling up the callstack.

It probably does but it can also make code much harder to read if you have to check for errors after every other line. I'm a bit divided on this.

It seems like stable coins would track the excess liquidity people are hoping to reinvest and all other crypto currencies track the amount of excess people are willing to just lose.
You picked about the most expensive option, there’s quite a few that are fine for commuter bikes, but cost substantially less. The Shimano Alfine series for example.

But except for the Rohloff, they all have a smaller gear range than a derailleur, so there are tradeoffs.
oh yeah I had a totally innocent willy wonka style idea of a kid atm with nice bright colors and a "fun" experience of getting money from a money machine. Eventually it could turn into a company like https://www.gohenry.com/
But you should realize that any artist learning prompt engineering should be a better AI-artist than a non-artist learning prompt engineering. After all, art is not jsut about technique but also creativity, composition, theme etc., right? And an artist can furthermore touch up the AI generated product manually if necessary.
Kind of. Desired asset mix is an important motivator. (Seems like it's a respectable version of "fear of missing out?")

But it's not the only one. Fear of a price drop can be motivating too.
Oh absolutely, relying on a header would be a placebo at best. I was thinking more along the line of having two teams, one that develops Headless and another team at Google that try to defeat it non stop. An official game of cat and mouse. Project: Tom and Jerry? I guess legal would never buy into that name.

My own personal method for my silly hobby sites is just to put passwords on things with an auth prompt delay.
Depends on the captcha but there's many popular services that you can plug into your code through APIs for bypassing captchas (https://www.2captcha.com, https://anti-captcha.com). I think the hardest one is probably the invisible reCaptcha Enterprise.
"We all saw the limitations of the old tools, and the benefits of the new"

Probabilistic models work incredibly well, much better than transformational-generative grammars.
Fortunately I have gotten much better at managing it compared to when I was a child but still, thinking of doing something like teach a class is nearly unthinkable to me. I just don't know how people manage to talk while deeply concentrated in something. I have to think about pacing myself otherwise whoever is in the other end will have trouble understanding anything at all.

That and appearing like I'm stuck thinking about something while in reality the whole answer is already formulated in my mind and I'm just having trouble saying it out-loud. At least I'm decently good at coming up with synonyms on the spot :)
I am learning MobX State tree, and using the references to objects in a tree, with normalisation (ensuring you don't have duplicates in the tree, etc). It's impossible not to think that state management is getting closer and closer to client databases for more complex apps.

I'm really hoping WebAssembly will finally bridge the backend and the frontend data structures seamlessly, because right now we are getting to the point of keeping 2 separate data schemas, which is a huge waste of effort.
The Bull Case for Rust on the Web
It's real Chromium, not emulating a Chromium browser. "Old" Headless was merely pretending to be a Chromium browser, the "New" Headless is a Chromium browser. "Old" Headless requires a parallel/duplicate implementation of features, which leads to subtle behavior differences or infeasability to support certain features e.g. extensions proper.
We know a few near-neolithic tribes right now.
This post takes a very narrowed point of view on errors, i.e. mostly errors addressed to developers: compiler errors, runtime errors/exceptions/crashes, etc.

There are many different kinds of errors, but they can be roughly divided into two categories: business errors and technical errors.

Business errors are not really an errors, but rather alternative business outcomes.
Paraphrasing Kellyanne Conway: business errors are alternative results;)
Something like Saga pattern or ACID transactions can be used to handle this kind of errors.

Technical errors are also a huge category, the most important properties are whether they can be reported to the end-user, or they make sense to developers only. Also are they retriable or not.

Lastly, some programming languages/runtimes/VMs reporting lots of ignorable errors, e.g. look at the log of any JVM application, you will see lots of exceptions, same in the browser's JS console. Even in Erlang/Elixir logs you will see supervisor errors, etc. IMO it make sense to expect clean logs in case of normally functioning application, but that's not the case for most development environments today.
It can, and it did, in this instance. Please don't take my comments out of their context.

PS. This is my last comment on this thread. I have zero interest in arguing for the sake of arguing. Life is too short.

AI assisted pull request comments
Yes, same as many technologies with legitimate uses. Tor is largely used for illegal activities, yet many would say the anonymity it provides for the general public is worth it being created (or the anonymity it provided for US intelligence).
I've heard the analogy (I think I might have originally read it on HN) that software engineers in the 2020s are like Detroit auto workers in the 1950s - highly skilled, highly paid, and doomed. I hope this is wrong.

I don't think the market for highly technical "computer guys" is going to disappear, but the nature of the job is probably going to change dramatically. But then it wouldn't be the first time - hasn't the job already changed completely since, say, the 1980s? I can't imagine working in this job before the internet existed, but many did. Maybe in another decade or two I'll be saying that I can't remember what it was like to do this kind of work before AI was this good.
I’m really not a fan of even long form reporting bringing the author into the story so much. It feels very much an artifact of this generation of reporters who seek celebrity as much as (more than?) telling an informative and neutral story.
But what if they're correct D:

The opposite is also true. People overestimate what is possible and underestimate how much more effort and time is required to start replacing industries.
Nice, still relevant
Is 2.3T a lot? Since the US GDP is about 23T, is there a situation where printing that much money is a net positive thing?
Wow, I truly hope you are wrong. Non-scoped CSS where you have to come up with names for everything and that doesn't live right next to the markup in the same file as the component is the worst. The whole cascading part is also something I hope I never have to deal with again with conflicting styles being inherited and overridden all over the place. Just let me isolate everything and let me freely copy a component file with all styling included without relying on any global CSS.
I'm maniacal about correcting my typos before my blog posts publish, going over and over the final product, and yet about 5% of the time I STILL find a typo the next day when the post publishes.

I've concluded that the overnight clearing of my brain cache — as it were — plus seeing the post fresh in its cleanest version, without the publishing markup functions strewn about the draft box, makes those typos visible to me.
that's absolutely not a problem, quite the opposite.

the goal is to have investments that serve broad interests. instead of investing in better yachts, supercars, jets, etc.

instead of investing into Amazon to dropship fake shit for quick bucks our economic surplus ought to go into developing better actually useful appliances, tools, technologies

for example, instead of OralB and Philips bamboozling us with sonic this and that with smart AI toothbrush marketing we ought to actually figure out dental care.

okay, sure, higher taxes on the wealthy doesn't guarantee more conscious consumerism, but might at least give it a chance.
Yeah, half of the Kimberley is Ni-Cu sulfides. We've got hundreds of billions of tonnes of the stuff. Stick a shovel anywhere.

With the exception of the Mount Gunson Copper Mine in South Australia, Australia has traditionally dumped cobalt back into the hole as it hasn't been economically viable to separate. At $50k per tonne "tailings" suddenly becomes "valuable resource".
Would this cobalt stuff have reacted more quickly without the subsidies?
The implications of your question are beyond dystopian
The part that I don't get is why the money is sloshing.

Edit:

That is to say, why is the liquidity moving from place to place.

To follow the analogy, If I put water in a bucket, it levels relatively quickly. Why does the liquidity "slosh" around for years.
There are startups doing this sort of thing already, the article is written by the head of research at one. But tech firms often like to have their own in-house stack with the source code.
I think these two are related and get to the core of the matter:

> Management – 10% of you are fired.

> Employees – but we were hired as fully remote. Most of us don't even live near an office.

I don’t think there is any solid evidence demonstrating on-site makes workers more or less productive than remote. But companies have demonstrated over the last 6 months that they overhired to an absurd degree.

This is just a way of further reducing headcount without having to actually do layoffs.

> they merely like to draw, not to make art

My take is that computers don't make art at all, they are incapable of doing so. They can produce content at astonishing rates though. But content is not artwork.

You can maybe assemble content into artwork, but that's up to the person doing it. Are they an artist, doing work to elevate it into art? Or are they a fraud, who is just taking content the computer gives them and calling it art.

Some people call those frauds "prompters"

Anyways, if you enjoy drawing you are an artist. The mechanical process of creating is way more important to the artistic process than the end result.

Unless you only view art as a commercial output.
But this tool would have helped them spot it in the first place.
Taught myself programming at 12 years old... long story short, I wanted to build games. Visual Basic 3 was what I had. I tried and tried... would just move object-oriented things on the platform. Had no clue what else to do. Went to sleep one night... had a dream about coding... woke up... and I've been a coder ever since. Of course, I did eventually read up on it, but it made so much more sense after that dream.
> Good dancing is when you stop thinking, AFTER you have spent time preparing enough so you don't have to think about it anymore.

Well, yeah, that's what OP said. Good dancing can happen after lots of training or none at all.

Surely there are more. Dancing is perhaps one of them.
Do 737s in the US still even have first class?. I'm surprised. I've never seen any in Europe in the last 15 years on short haul which is of course what a 737 is used for.
Yes, the way you're stating it is fully correct. It is trivial to circumvent, but it would be so in your scenario too - sharing cookies is easy to implement in a proxy server. Still, for a simple website it's a big hurdle, since it forces you to build a proxy server.
> Somewhat tangential but is Arch really suitable for servers?

I think we all use the software we choose to use in order to use the software we choose to use. When we build a cluster, it's often done in order to build a cluster.

> annual salary for the last 10 years here.

There are places where there's transparency about this. And they don't fare worse than other places.

The key is for the transparency to work, everyone needs to be transparent about the thing. Voluntary transparency doesn't work as you noticed.

I wouldn't mind having my home address, email, phone number and salary public if everyone elses is too.

Transparency doesn't stiffle innovation it allows any innovation to spread quickly across the whole market which enables further innovation. Every innovation is built on the shoulders of what came before. Letting the before stay secret stifles innovation.

> Are you saying here that transparency must be “forced” because the absence of transparency disincentivizes transparency?

Yes. Exactly. I'm afraid of disclosing my address because published addresses are rare. If my address was one of millions published addresses I would have way fewer objections. People with personal enemies might have more objections but then again if they couldn't hide it would force the society to deal with their oppressors better.
One good use-case for still using queues is if your producer or consumer has spiky characteristics on small timescales, but predicatable perfomance if you zoom out enough. In that case your queue size spikes to some high value, but always returns to 0.

The reasons for this can be numerous, maybe you produce a lot of jobs at once because of a user interaction, or your consumer is running slower for five minutes because some cron job is stealing your resources.
But will there be a local-first Renaissance with desktop apps returning to focus? (Not sure - unlikely? - but, man, as a creative, I really hope so.)
Yep, Pimox.
Feature request to find duplicates within words contains underscores or hyphens.

I want to use this for reading documentation. I often find myself struggling with acronyms like JWT_AUTH and JWT_OKTA so this would help me visually identify and mentally map the use of common terms.
That's not coercion. If an employer can coerce an employee merely by requiring some compliance actions to remain employed, our legal system has a much bigger problems on its hands than this case.
So is oil but it works fine :P
Probably what the artists used to say.

Though your mouth is reporting good feedback on things that seem to have good nutritional value right? Of course you can easily confuse it (eg with lots of sugar), I just mean the distinction you're making might not be needed.
It’s more common to use TEMP tables but you can use UNLOGGED instead which can be helpful if you want to keep the same schema.
We adopted Sorbet for our codebase a couple of months ago, and I couldn't be happier with that choice. Sure, it's not as powerful as Typescript (e.g. no way to specify a union of constants like `type Result = 'ok' | 'error'`), but it's worth it just for the nil-check alone. And it's great for documenting too. It's easy to forget what type a method expects for its parameters.

> To be honest, "prepping" sounds like a pretty unhealthy way to live, and I see no specific basis for believing WW3 is particularly likely in the short term. Seems like it is anxiety from watching too much news.

It's absolutely from keeping an eye on the news, and probably too much. That's pretty much where all non-local anxiety comes from isn't it?

I agree, full on prepping seems like it could be unhealthy. But it seems like there should be less drastic measures that are overall positive and prudent whether or not war comes (for example the archiving I mentioned).

Or maybe even the opposite, maybe we should take more risks (in life, love, business, etc) now because life is ephemeral anyway?
> Successful manga artists regularly earn millions

"Successful" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

Most Mangaka make less than minimum wage.
Until you have ran your full etl load in snowflake or bigquery, you can never estimate the cost. You may answer some questionnaire about your projected usage, data volume, frequency, etc. but until you execute all your models with any warehouse you can estimate nothing.

Usage based pricing is fine when it’s on predictable metrics, number of logs sent, number of rows sent, number of emails/sms/etc sent, number of seats, users, licences, etc. When it’s on abstract terms like credits or abstract resources like warehouses (with no idea what resource a medium warehouse utilizes) or error prone metrics like scanned gigabytes per query, it might become problematic at some point.
Maybe they changed their mind on that, because it does not show me any DRM usage as of now.
If you need scripting just use IM as a lib from Python.

can chatgpt develop a personality?

Yes, ChatGPT can develop a personality. ChatGPT is an AI-powered chatbot platform that uses natural language processing (NLP) and deep learning to understand user input and generate natural-sounding responses. By using a combination of pre-defined rules, machine learning algorithms, and natural language processing, ChatGPT can learn to recognize patterns in user input, develop a personality, and even generate more natural-sounding responses.

You didn't say ", in this instance." If you don't specify, the default interpretation is that you are speaking in general terms.

You're the one being all defensive about it.
The scientific method is part of an empirical philosophy and requires the ability to make objective measurements.

The problem with consciousness is that we have no ability to measure it objectively because it is an entirely subjective phenomenon.

You have no way of knowing if I am conscious or just a sufficiently elaborate machine doing a really great job of acting like I am (a p-zombie).

Personally, I lean towards panpsychism. I assume I am not special and that everything in the universe, or to put it another way the entire universe itself, has an experience of being.
We dont use refrigerant and it is a single HP with a 930F lift (so huge temperature difference between source and sink temperature).

It is more than a heat pump, it is a new Stirling engine architecture, so it can run in reverse (heat to electricity) with an exceptional efficiency
Old urinals in the midlands (UK) had a bumble bee emblem you could aim at, but why a bee espcially, seemed odd. Later found out. In latin Bee = Apis. Hilarous innit.

You could make the same arguments for Swift (no gc) but I do like rust better. And with swift you can still have a memory leak that compiles!
> that drawing skills are massive devalued.

This is the critical insight. Human artists having nothing to worry about. Human drawers do.

The decoupling of concept from execution is old news in most forms of art. Writing music and playing an instrument are two very different skills, and indeed any session musician will tell you that playing instruments well is not as valued as writing amazing music.

In fact we went through a similar thing in pop music in the 70’s and 80’s, with the brief moral panic over electronic music and people who “just push a button and don’t even know know to play their instrument.” Turns out nobody cares, as long as the music is good.

AI art decouples concept from execution for visual art. That’s all.
> Probabilistic models work incredibly well, much better than transformational-generative grammars.

You've missed everything Chomsky said even though it is repeated in the article: Probabilistic models can be useful tools but they tell you nothing about the human language faculty (i.e. they are not science).
If you think templates are a substitute for components there is very little to discuss. Templates hide hierarchy, are not easily composable, are not easily shareable (Can you publish a set of templates on NPM?) and cannot easily have complex self-contained logic.

Another big upside of JS components which does not exist in templates is typechecking.

Templates are good if you don't have complex hierarchies and have relatively simple layouts that aren't very dynamic, but they're not the same as components.

JS frameworks have relatively low overhead compared to the total size of most sites. React is ~50kb gzipped. There are also of plenty lightweight options.

> I'd rather use the backend. Because it owns the state, and cache invalidation is one of the two hard things

The backend does not own UI state. If I need to filter or sort a collection I don't want to make a request to the backend. If I need to make a selection I don't want to wait for the backend to respond before the UI updates. And so on.

I think they point they were making was that a job as a lower-skill artist was a potential on-ramp to a job as higher-skill artist.

Changed "privilege separation" -> "separation" to fit within character limits.
When people say they're not a math person, I don't pressure them to change, but I do recognize how self limiting and reductive they are being.

Everybody gets to make their own choices on what they will and won't enjoy in life, for sure. I'm not the type of person to apply pressure over something like that. But as someone who learned that physical intelligence is something you can grow in my 30s, I do feel it's a bit of a sacred duty to chip away at the same fixed mindset when I see it in other people.
I have a feeling these type of articles are never going to end. Anytime a Tesla is involved in a crash, it’s always going to be a question if Self driving mode was on. Whether it was on or not is a moot point in my opinion. As a driver, if you slam your car into into another vehicle or object, the responsibility is 100% on you. We have to stop blaming technology for wrecks. If you have a Tesla (or other vehicle with advanced cruise control) and wreck while it’s activated, it’s not the tech’s fault. The driver has to be paying attention to everything regardless, and if they don’t then get mad at them, not the car maker.
