Using the Steam Hardware Survey to estimate the number of shipped units is clever. For reference, here's the link to the current hardware survey results, narrowed to only Linux: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Softw... (click the "Linux Version" line to expand detailed results). We can see that "SteamOS Holo" is at 22.08% of Linux Steam users, up from 7.6% last July (https://boilingsteam.com/steam-deck-full-overview/).

If anyone knows of a historic archive of data for the Steam Hardware Survey, it would be interesting to see whether or not the Steam Deck has made a dent in the overall Windows percentage since last year (Windows is still sitting pretty at 96.02%, but that just means there's a lot of room to grow, eh? :P ).

And where were those when I got my current set of headphones in 2006 (!)

Why should I throw away headphones that work perfectly fine (or constantly lose and buy new adapters)?

It's not like removing the headphone jack helped in slimness or battery runtime – the iPod shuffle had a headphone jack and that worked just fine, almost 20 years ago!
The folks over at SO picked a stack (C#, SQL Server, IIS), and optimized the heck out of it to keep this "simplicity". Much of SO is custom built from the ground up to push performance and stay within the purity of the canonical .net stack.

It isn't clear to me this is a model that would work elsewhere, or should be held up as something to be replicated.

Did they save time? Did they save money? Did this help make SO a wildly successful company? Did it allow them to deliver features to customers faster?

We do track JS errors at OpenReplay and of course link them to recordings. Errors come with stacktraces, are also fully searchable and can be used as cards to build custom dashboards.
In terms of backend errors, we took a different approach at OpenReplay. We pull them from third-party systems (i.e. Sentry, Elastic, CloudWatch, Datadog, etc.) and sync them with the corresponding replays.
IF and WHILE are also equivalent to GOTOs in that sense.

The point is that CONTINUE and BREAK jump to exactly one location given their lexical context and cannot jump anywhere else. They are also only meaningful when applied to structured control flow. The problem with GOTO is the unbound nature of its jump target, which leads to control flow that is difficult to comprehend by looking at the lexical structure of a function.
Unproductive work can multiply, so your colleagues start wasting time, too.
For example, if not carefully managed, initiatives that started for valid information, optimization or standardization efforts can turn into wasteful data collection busy work with little or no returns.
Yes. I think basically I would not have done it like that but they did, it's wildly successful so fair play - it's taste that makes the difference
I think it might have more to do with the ability for valve to produce the deck being bottlenecked, rather than a lack of demand since it was backordered for months despite a limited initial release.
And even today it's only available in 3 regions.
Eh, getting the device out of my pocket, turning it on, activating the wireless connection, remembering to charge it every day vs. just plug it in. And on top of that my phone can already give me a hot spot (with bad battery life). Not quite sure I see any big advantage.
That's not entirely fair. The AWS t family aren't dedicated CPUs. They're burstable, there is a token system that decides if you get to use them to full capacity and for how long:

True in the sense that I stopped paying for any software that went subscription. Saved me hundreds of dollars a year that would otherwise have gone to the developers.
> Android is designed in such a way that you cannot run desktop apps, despite the original Linux kernel.

What exactly do you mean by "desktop apps"? Of course it's not going to support KDE or GTK or QT or win32 or some other windowing API. But it's an OS, it can run software. And since it's open source, I don't see any reason why it would not run something.

Of course you would need to use the android API to do something, but it makes sense because it's a different OS.

It doesn't behave like a desktop OS, but as opposed to what, exactly? Desktop apps are a subset of software in general, desktop apps are not everything there is about software.

If you mean "I cannot run desktop apps because I need to redesign them so they can work on a phone", then yes, indeed, but a phone is not just "a small desktop".

>> He is saying neither. He is observing that OP has introduced the assumption that their brain is doing something that can't be done with matrix multiplication and is pointing out that there is no evidence to back such an assumption up.

Where was this assumption, about the brain and matrix multiplication, introduced? As far as I can tell, "the brain" was introduced to the conversation by mckirk, not the OP.

>> That seems like a highly suspect assumption.

Which one? Can you please quote from the OP's comment? You and the other poster are constantly bringing up things that someone is supposed to have said, but that nobody has said yet, in this thread, and it is very confusing.
I agree, if C++ can be taught then so can Rust.

But pedagogically, it is difficult to motivate why we can’t read a reference and mutate it in the same scope, since Python, JavaScript, Ruby, Lua, Lisp, Java, OCaml, C, etc. all allow it. It is much easier to accept this hurdle after having seen and debugged memory bugs and data races in, e.g., C.
Ongoing Incident in Google Cloud
I live in such an area. The sun technically goes down for a few hours every night in the summer - but it stays just below the horizon. I can read outside at night, and it is more akin to night being a few hours of early sunset that bleeds into late sunrise.

It was honestly more magical 9 or 10 years ago when I first got here, but I still enjoy it.
I have learned that sometimes it is better to wait work out and see how it plays out.

To some I'm sure it looks like laziness, but I consider it more weaponized procrastination. With experience I've become better at it.

Sometimes I get that gut feeling about a project, and just can't bring myself to get started. Some basic research happens, but I spend close to zero actual time on it, sticking to other things that matter.

In two weeks, priorities have changed and all of what I was asked for has now changed or been cancelled anyway. Glad I didn't get too invested.
The alternative for this event though seems to be no payment at all, so escrow would seem to be better than “I promise I’ll pay you later”.
Microsoft is definitely pivoting towards making most of their money from their subscription game pass, with the idea that even if their consoles do sub-par they can also gain money from PC users and try and eat into Steam’s market share. Given how many game studios they’ve been buying, I don’t know whether it’s smart to bet against them (even considering their spotty history with studio acquisition).

While I have a hard time imagining Sony making another play at the handheld market after two failures, maybe they’ll realize that if they actually market it well and don’t use weird non-standard hardware like the PSP’s did they’d stand a better chance.
As I see it, 2 people carrying a 60 kg log seems saying very little about 3 people carrying a (longer) 85 kg one.

You would need far better synchronization of movements and people of the same height or exactly regulated straps for the tumpline and besides, a log 2.50 mt long behaves differently than a 3.50 mt long one when it comes to maneuverability.
This is indeed the problem and the thing that needs to be focused on if we truly want anything to change.
>>Let me begin by saying that we're not unfirable. It takes a bit more doing, but you can either be shown the door eventually or reshuffled into a go-nowhere job with no responsibility that'd otherwise be done by a new hire or something.

The phrase “we’re not unfirable” is incompatible with the statement “you can be shown the door OR reshuffled into a go-nowhere job” in my mind. If your response to “we can’t fire union workers” is “well but you can give us a big paycheck based on our seniority to do a job a new hire could do” then I guess you really can’t be fired.

Even amongst the union it seems like you realize the union is inefficient and staffed with layarounds. But when there’s a problem you blame management? And you think that there’s too much management while this article mentions downsizing of management/engineering by a factor of 10 (1600 -> 124)?

Conventional wisdom as an anti-pattern
There are a few other devices, but they're all so expensive that they don't matter. Microsoft is probably not worried by the Steam Deck, since its sales numbers seem to be quite modest (1 to 2 million units, as they guess in the piece).
I made a similar comment elsewhere, but yes, for now it seems Valve is purposefully not pushing it too hard, for now at least.

I think a large part of that is ironing out the kinks that come with launching a new product, especially in a space where you have little experience.

The Steam Deck launched with some software quirks, that would not have gone over that well with the general public, but by focusing on PC gamers who are used to a little more jank, they can launch to a more forgiving audience while improving the experience.

It's making demands of the natural world that the natural world doesn't have to obey. These natural rights are only that way because specific groups of people agree on them, making them unnatural, or, as I said previously, it implies that absolute freedom is your natural right. If that's not the case I'd ask you to explain where natural rights end and chaos begins.
The revenue of the developer is the cost paid by the users. They are one and the same. We can't say that subscriptions help keep developers in work without also saying they are costing users.
The absurd part of this is that the solution is so clear and easy in the United States: Use the scale of the federal government.

We got to where we are, in the U.S., because we've got massive inefficiency in state and local government. There's only a handful of cities that are massive enough to do projects that would require hiring highly paid specialists to manage these huge projects. Similarly, most states have very few opportunities for long-term career-building public project management. (There's like 3 west of the Mississippi.)

But consolidating all of this expertise in a federal agency tasked with planning and executing massive public projects would allow us to hire career-oriented planners and keep them busy for ever. It's how we run the military, of course. And, ironically, the military is a leech on the U.S. taxpayer, massively bloated and throwing money at foreign problems in the most ham-fisted way just to justify itself – but if you shifted even 20% of the military's spending to a domestic public works department, all that money would not only be to the benefit of the U.S. taxpayer, but you could hire tens of thousands more American workers to do the jobs. It's a win-win for everyone. And it's probably something a lot of legislators could get behind.

Not only that, but a federal public works department would quickly be able to aggregate learnings on improving efficiency – knowing what works and what doesn't – while also being able to wield the power of the federal government to negotiate lower prices.
This seems like a legitimate middle-ground. Obviously quoting it would be -- kind of ballsy in an academic essay -- but drawing that line at least means that the cases where it's obviously awesome are (and should be) fair-game, even in formal writing:

- a thesaurus

- an organizational resource

- a creativity tool

- a summary expert that can lower F-K scores

>The people that live here see municipal workers standing around doing nothing. We read about those gaming the overtime system and building secret clubhouses.

I would argue that in many cases these kinds of things are management choices, too. As an example, I'll use my dad who works in a more traditionally blue-collar local government union job doing construction work. When I was young, he busted his butt building stuff, now near retirement he spends much of his time "standing around doing nothing" - however, this comes down to outsourcing and lack of hiring.

All large projects now are outsourced (this gives the opportunity to graft, and may or may not actually reduce cost). However, they still need a skeleton crew of actual staff for projects that don't make sense to outsource short of contracting the whole construction function: fix a broken window, paint a wall, hang a door, change a broken window AC unit. Now, he may have one or two such hour-long jobs to do in a day, and he is able to spend most of the day "standing around doing nothing" while completing every request on time, and he's not exactly rushing the work.
I'm really curious what you decided on in the end. Can you tell us?

I don't get why people see this as entitlement. It's just sensible. I'm a man, and I also don't respond when a stranger has nothing more to say than "Hey".

We aren't super interested in selling. I want to work on Fly forever and selling is a quick way to end that.

But I also don't think you can build a from-scratch cloud without VC money. It's very expensive.
> I'm puzzled why Valve doesn't want to sell it in stores.

Selling in stores comes at a price (retail will easily charge you 20 to 30% for the privilege) and my guess is that Valve has fairly limited production runs anyway which makes the proposition unattractive.
In this article, I highlighted the main reasons why so many programmers still don’t know how to write code, especially in Nigeria. Also, I used the opportunity to give valuable insights about some of the best and easiest software languages and frameworks to learn and where to find these resources.
I believe that, understanding coding and its fundamentals, is a professional approach to ensure a higher probability of success for any web developer.
Having used one a lot, I can say that the ergonomics of the Steam Deck aren't there.

I could lay in my bed and play switch games for hours without issue, but with the deck, I need to introduce some resting device to not lose feeling in my hands.

Also, its awkward for me compared to any other contoller in terms of trigger reach.

Other than that, I still enjoy using it quite a bit.
Instead of looking at Tiobe ranking (which is flawed in many aspects, in my opinion), I would rather check how many new Pascal/Swift projects were created on Github last year.

Syntax is the least important part of a language. In my opiaion, Lua has almost nothing in common with Pascal (type system, memory model).
I would choose the same, but I know very gifted people that simply aren't economically successful. They aren't poor by any standards, but after a critical line it seems that inheritance or chance plays a larger role.

At some point intelligence can even be a hindrance for career. People will notice and quite a few wouldn't approve of someone with more capacity than themselves.
I tried multiple times at multiple companies to negotiate an additional month off per year in exchange for a 15% decrease in compensation. I pointed out that giving me 8% of a year off for a 15% decrease in compensation was a pretty good deal. Nobody ever bit, unfortunately. Not even any counters.

Sort-of. There’s a tangled weave between the union and the licensing authorities. On top of that various tax and zoning considerations often force the use of union trades on building projects in NYC.
