When you start having 100 applications (a typical game may have that amount), even if only 10 of them are thorouhgly tested, you end up needing that pile driver, or you end up compiling all 100 of these on every presubmit. Just sayin.
You have to decouple “programming in a language I love” from “earning money to support my newborn.” It sounds like you have a strong desire (requirement, even?) that your job has to provide both. It’s a common desire, but in my experience it is very rare that the world configures itself to satisfy that desire.
This is hilarious. I love it.

OpenAI X Bain
Shiba Inu ($SHIB) ecosystem has three token, and BONE is one among them. The BONE token's price has increased by more than 100% so far this year, propelling it into the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market valuation.
$BONE token is trading at $1.87, with a surge of $0.87 at the beginning of the year. Prior to the release of Shibarium, the layer-2 scaling solution for the Shiba Inu ecosystem, the price of the coin has been skyrocketing.
Due to a price increase, BONE's market cap has surpassed $400 million, putting it in the top 100 digital assets in terms of market valuation. Via ShibaSwap, users can exchange their ERC20 tokens for other currency, allowing BONE token holders to earn rewards from adding liquidity to the network. Holders of BONE tokens can also stake on the platform to make money.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) Continues to See Massive Surge
Shibarium
Many people think that the buzz surrounding the eagerly anticipated Shibarium is what's causing the present rally. Scalability of the Shibarium protocol is not yet available as of February 22. The development of this new project is progressing, according to the chief developer of Shiba Inu, who also said that it will increase the project's chances of scalability.
Huge Drop in Supply on Exchanges
The number of tokens stored in the popular cryptocurrency exchanges' wallets is represented by the supply on exchanges. Shiba INU, on the other hand, has seen a decrease in supply, which reflects the bullish market views and a sharp increase in demand. It also shows that the token's owners are prepared to keep it for a long time by transferring it to their wallets.
SHIB the second-largest altcoin holding among
Ethereum whales
The drastic surge in popularity of the Shiba Inu coin has forced whales to consider adding them to their portfolio. A noticeable bullish wave is rapidly approaching, according to an increase in whale accumulation. This will assist in pushing the price higher than necessary.
According to WhaleStats – which analyzes the holdings and activity of whales on various blockchains – the 5,000 largest Ethereum (ETH) whales on record now hold a staggering 50,905,707,716,073 SHIB worth $735,034,573.
Daily Active Addresses are increasing
Daily Active Addresses data provides the daily number of unique addresses that were active on the network as a sender or receiver. A rise in these metrics as visible on the Shiba ecosystem which indicates a rise in the transactions that may further impact the price in a positive way.
With further impetus from initiatives such as DAO, Shiba Inu game, and NFTs, the Shiba Inu price could breach the target of $0.0000259 as per coinpedia.
There's speculation that Jesus might have been a Buddhist or at least well known in Buddhist contemporary circles and interacted with them. If you search online you'll see plenty of sources that mention it as a plausible possibility (there's a BBC documentary even).
In my experience talking to semiconductors folks, ARM is just not a concern anymore. The future is RISC-V, and ARM is already being seen as legacy tech. ARM's progress in the server space has stalled, the ARM Windows ecosystem is dead, Android has laid the groundwork for a move to RISC-V, and ARM has never and will never touch the desktop market.

I wrote a post about this, because I think it surprises my engineering colleagues.

But I think objectively, it's a better quality of life per dollar than anything else available in the area.
Cost controls, not rationing. The problem is that capitalism fails in the case of healthcare. How much is your health worth? Every last cent you’ve got.
I think its also leaning into their new product MI300, which has 24 cpu cores with 8 compute dies. Both CPU and GPU (and memory) on a single package.

Conventional processing + AI together. Hybrid approaches.
As an experiment quite a few years ago I got a laptop with a special version of the Intel CPU that was not as fast but much more power efficient.

ASUS UL30A-X5

Really an excellent computer, ran linux great (games didn't really exist yet though), and with tuning was coming in under 10W if the display brightness was turned down. First time I was able to get through flights without the system running dead.

I think in this case what's going on is that temperature rises increase resistance in a chip and therefore cause lower efficiency. If you can keep it cool, you can keep it more efficient. The move seems like a necessary one, a computer as powerful as that UL30A is probably inside the phone if you turn off the radio and display, that thing still had a giant battery and only lasted 10-12 hours.

I've seen AMD do some pretty impressive things, I wouldn't count them out. They're at least willing to attempt to compete on price.
You have obviously never built a house in the U.S., otherwise you would never make such a statement.

As almost everyone knows, construction delays and cost overruns are the norm, not the outlyer. Construction projects here very often suffer dearly from the "2 more weeks and/or a couple more thousand dollars" overrun issues.

In fact, I'm sure at least several people who have been trapped in a home renovation nightmare LOLed deeply after reading your post.
Sweden.

A lot of layoffs here as well. I wasn't affected but know devs that were.
My understanding is that the most senior the dev, the easier it is to bounce back. Know people that got another job within 2 weeks with higher pay.

I think it's a given that governments, PR/brand management firms, and other large actors are racing to weaponize chat generators. The only reason they're likely not already being deployed at scale is because the current stuff isn't really fit for purpose. Being able to say some "appropriate" things most of the time doesn't matter when you spaz out against unsophisticated adversarial actors, even to the point of spitting out your own classified training prompts.

They need to be able to vary their writing style, vernacular, content, subtly (and consistently) reflect an imaginary backstory, following invisible/unspoken standards, and more. All on top of not spazzing out. So we're still somewhat safe from our robot overlords, but they're probably coming soon. And it's only then that we'll get to measure their impact.

one of the benefits of starlark (unlike python): "Starlark is suitable for use in highly parallel applications. An application may invoke the Starlark interpreter concurrently from many threads, without the possibility of a data race, because shared data structures become immutable due to freezing." from https://github.com/bazelbuild/starlark/blob/master/spec.md - it's not python, you can't do recursion (!) and it's more limited (you can't read a file in bazel, and parse it, you have to make this operation into the graph somehow)

That’s a bold statement as I type all day on an M1 Mac. My FT100 company just made the leap to them as dev machines.

> Aptera is making their charging port the exact same as a Tesla vehicle. Aptera is the first company to do this, and I think it's very smart.

No, it's chronically moronic. Fractured, incompatible charging infrastructure doesn't do anyone any good. Dumb, wasteful infrastructure incompatibilities continue to stunt the North American EV market.

You can fuel any brand of ICE vehicle at any brand of fuel station and you should be able to charge any brand of EV at any brand of charging station. Anything less than that is brain-dead and makes EVs worse.

If ever Aptera sells in Europe they'll be doing CCS type 2 Combo anyhow. Might as well do CCS type 1 at home.
You can have some idea, but it’s not like estimating the time and cost of building a house.

Sorry, but this is such a sad statement to me. I mean, unless you absolutely love the field you work in, in which case that's amazing, go for it! But if you're like the rest of us, there's so much to see & do in life besides work! As an example, I'm reading, learning to cook, traveling, and trying to get fit. These provide their own satisfaction & meaning in ways that work doesn't.

Thanks for the info. Not sure why it got flagged
Stand-ups aren't really for devs, but for the team leads and PMs trying to track work. If they take more than ~5 min or so, people aren't prepared and that should be a red flag for team leads. That said, every day is often overkill, and most of the value can be gotten by keeping tickets up to date. But "ceremony" is often a tool to get people to keep things up to date by formalizing the expectation that it'll get picked up if they're not. The more disciplined a team is, the less you need that ceremony.
Imagine wanting a two floor house with a closed kitchen and once all the wall built you request your contractor to have a single floor one with the garage underground now and an open kitchen with island.
With a loose enough contract that they can ask whatever for free.

That's the reality of software development.
Ask HN: Why Is Prompt Engineering – as a career path – A thing?

Yes, but there is nuance. Like rice is grown where there is a forced conservation for some other purpose, and hey since we have to have pools of water here, can we make rice? Sure, ok… Later… “CA wasting water by growing rice! Can you believe those idiots? It’s a drought!”

I would say based on the linked conversation that they linked answers do answer your question. Or at least, from an outsider perspective, they should have allowed you to reach a workable solution (though maybe without directly answering you actual question).

I've had similar questions where I'm told it's a duplicate or that the error message says exactly what the problem is, but I'm just so uncomfortable in the language that I can't recognize it. It feels really bad when people roll their eyes and link you (or tell you to go back to the documentation, which is the ultimate "fuck you" from someone you've asked for help) to something that you also don't quite understand. If I "got" it I wouldn't be here asking this question.

>i dont think that's true.

American productivity/wage gap isn't particularly controversial, it's well documented.

>The average wealth has grown

Globally yes, but as far as Americans are concerned they largely didn't see their wealth grow as the "Elephant curve" [2] shows. A lot of the wealth growth happened in China and India.

>the availability of things you could buy with said wage has grown

"You'll own nothing. And you'll be happy" is pretty much what you are saying here. The price of real assets has grown tremendously, but at least you can buy a 60" flatscreen TV for $100.

AMD has done extremely well with multi-chip(let) modules. Zen cores & zen clusters (on Core Chiplet Die, CCD) are wonderfully small, and a huge amount of the regular stuff cores do is relegated to the IO Die (CCX), which is not as cutting edge.

But wow there's a bunch of power burned on interconnect between CCDs and CCX. And now AMD's new southbridge, Promontory 21, made by Asmedia, is another pretty significant power hog, and the flagship X670 tier is powered by two of these.

There's absolutely a challenge to bring power down. I'm incredibly super impressed by AMD's showing, & they've done very well. But they've been making trade-offs that have pretty large net impacts, especially if we measure at idle power.
Thanks! I ask myself often when I have ideas if it will maintain the simplicity or make it less out of reach for regular people. Please do let me know if you end up making a blog with it. It'd be cool if I could put a list of examples in the readme so that people can see what others have done with their bearclaw blogs

This speaks to the "labor" argument made above. More efficiency means harder work, but it must also be less work, unless we are trying to extract more from workers.

OTOH, it might not be so bad to extract more from workers. More money and all.

Here's a swedish one too: https://fruktkartan.se/

It's completely privately operated and sourced, but at least in my area it's pretty accurate.

There was a news story about some municipality in the northern half of the country setting up a map like this, but only for a very limited area.

I think it's great, but please be respectful when going to another neighbourhood to pick fruit. I'm not sure if this is tied to Fruktkartan but the last few years I've seen fruit pickers come from other areas of the city and act very rough. For example they bring sacks, and apple picking equipment, and they climb the trees and break branches to get to the fruit.

On one hand fruit always ends up on the ground rotting, every year, so there should be plenty to go around. But on the other hand when people bring a whole sack, or crate, it feels like they're not just picking for themselves anymore, or that they're being wasteful and rough for no reason.
> Put another way: if AMD (and especially Intel) don't do something about this they're going to get completely eaten alive by ARM.

AMD’s latest parts are actually quite close to M1/M2 in computing efficiency when clocked down to more conservative power targets.

They crank the power consumption of their desktop CPUs deep into the diminishing returns region because benchmarks sell desktop chips. You can go into the BIOS and set a considerably lower TDP limit and barely lose much performance.

Where they struggle is in idle power. The chiplet design has been great for yields but it consumes a lot of baseline power at idle. M1/M2 have extremely efficient integration and can idle at negligible power levels, which is great for laptop battery life.
I’d add one thing to that list:

Control the amount of Work In Progress by the team.

I’m not sure if that counts as common sense or not but I see it as vitally important.
Sure thing. Yes I do see improved para-formatting. Best luck iterating!

Guidde is proud to announce the launch of a new voiceover and text-to-voice functionality on its popular platform.
With this new functionality, users can now easily record a voiceover narration while creating visual documentation and add it to their project. This makes it more accessible for people with visual impairments or for those who prefer to listen to information instead of reading it. Additionally, the text-to-voice functionality allows users to convert text to voice in over 13 languages and accents including German, French, Japanese and more and over 100 voices. Making it easy to transcribe recorded voice.
In a lot of environments, this hasn't been true for a long time.
Sony was hacked by the North Koreans according to the FBI.

Edit: to be clear, this is in no way far-fetched. Sony had terrible security and North Korea has a credible hacking capability. They mostly use it for ransomware to make cash so they can avoid sanctions, which is right in line with the activity there.

It is in Ubuntu and the AUR ( Arch ) as well.

In pragmatic terms, .NET is as native as anything else in Linux at this point.

You can even build it from source:
https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet

In fact, the VMR ( linked above ) ONLY works on Linux at the moment with Windows and Mac support planned. So, .NET is Linux-first in some ways.

MAUI is not Linux first of course. The rest of it is becoming more and more Linux and container focussed though it seems.

You can hide the latency in very interesting ways. For example, oculus link encoded a fraction of the screen and starts sending that while the remainder is still encoding. That hides a non trivial part of the encoding latency. If you could reach further into the rendering pipeline (ie rendering the top 1/4 of the screen before the others) you could imagine reducing the effective latency even further by overlapping rendering with network transmission. It’s obviously tricky due to several reasons, but it’s not impossible (eg mobile games are rendered this way and mobile GPUs are particularly geared towards tile-based rendering). There are obviously limits to what you can do with reactivity to input but a lot of that can be mitigated with local prediction rendering.
Right? Like, isn't that one of the reasons people have been raving about Apple's MX chips? Because they're very energy efficient and have good performance characteristics?
AMD is having some challenges at the moment.

In particular, the RDNA3 graphics card line launch has been a dud.

The Nvidia 4090 turned out to be far ahead of the AMD 7900XTX.

Then there turned out to be an overheating issue on the AMD cards.

And now it just looks like both Nvidia and AMD are price gouging GPU buyers instead of competing with each other. They are deliberately keeping prices high and creating artificial shortages of GPUs, because that's what kept prices high during covid/crypto mining.

I used to be really cheering for AMD as the underdog, but I guess its true that none of these companies are your friend, they're just there to shake you down.

AMD had a chance to really pull ahead of Nvidia by being "the good guy" and actually offering end users great value for money, but instead they've chosen to emulate Nvidia.

Substantial customer good will has been lost by AMD.
