I think we're talking about latency in incorrect terms, I'm referring to polling frequency of my task queue to handle interrupts, which is configured as an increase in the polling rate of the scheduled workloads inside linux with the following keys:

CONFIG_HZ_100 # Typical for server workloads
CONFIG_HZ_250 # For servers that need to switch tasks more often (think: overprovisioned cloud providers)
CONFIG_HZ_300 # For Media servers/workstations, typically
CONFIG_HZ_1000 # For desktops, typicall.

The documentation suggests for “workstation/desktop” operations the timer should be set to 1000MHz.

Why does it recommend this? Because the higher the polling rate the quicker it will see inputs from human interface devices like mice and keyboards and respond to them.

A higher tickrate here will mean more interrupts (meaning lower throughput but a lower latency to interrupts). If you're talking about process latency of non-interrupted processes then a lower value is prefered because you don't really want your program to wait around for more CPU time while linux polls all of its buffers and tries to schedule other tasks.

You can easily see what is configured by asking the kernel for its configuration param: `zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -E '^CONFIG_HZ'`

I switched from dual monitor to a single 2560x1440/quad HD monitor when I switched to using the i3 tiling window. manager.

I think I can picture the issue they ran into with a 4k monitor, but I do not have that issue at QHD. It's enough width to display a document or narrow browser window next to my IDE and a couple of terminals beneath the IDE. Ideal setup for me personally.

As much as I despise Apple, they won this battle in the US. this isn't. About technology or whether or not video calls happen to exist on another platform. If for some reason GP's son was unable to create a twitter account when all his friends were on twitter, you can't just say "he can create an account on mastodon". Sure, it's technically similar but that doesn't matter because the problem is a social one and Apple has recognized that and has successfully tuned middle school kids into their sycophants by refusing to implement RCS. The fact that moving to a different messaging platform would solve this does not matter, because if these kids were willing to move platforms they wouldn't bully someone for having a green bubble to begin with.
I started using Apptivate a couple of months ago, someone on here recommended it. It makes app switching very pleasingly fast. I use a PC kbd with a mac mini :-) and have F5-F9 assigned to instantly switch to the 5 apps I always have open.

Also, holding down F5-F9 shows those windows as long as they're held down. So now, to take a peek at the bash window I hold down F5 as long as I need to look. Can also type or drag things onto there while holding F5 with the other hand.

You can assign any app to any key or combination of keys. It's free. It can do other stuff too. Very highly recommended.

Also, F1-F3 I have assigned in the system settings to F1=Show desktop, F2=current app windows, F3=show all open windows (mission control). So I very rarely have to use Cmd-Tab any more!

I assume one of the biggest problems is, that both eyes see the exact same image while in a „real 3D environment“ both eyes would see slightly different views of the world where the brain then reconstructs the depth out of it. Here we have the „mono“ version with some „fake stereo“. It works surprisingly well, but the brain calls the bluff.

Its uncorrelated with "honesty"/"knowing" yet it has some very firm stances on not lying or making false statements. These are contradictory. It can respond to prompts that posit a fictional setting. Thus it must, at least as an emergent property, have some separation of general knowledge of existent things (training) from context dependent imagined things (prompts). And thus there is an emergent concept of honesty, as in an awareness not to treat content inside an imagined scope as existent outside of that scope.

Isn’t the proposal simply saying that making libs more granular will solve the problem?

I don’t know what’s everyone else’s experience but I was updating dependencies due to either bugs identified in old versions, because I wanted a new feature or because the old version was not supported anymore. Setting dependency to a fixed version was not an option. Using in your code function with given version fixed seems to be problematic.

During updates the problem was to update all other dependencies as a result of the update. I can’t see how the proposed approach would solve it.

Another problem which I sometimes faced (less annoying) was the api change i.e. start using function B instead of function A which requires slightly different parameters. Those kind of automatic refactors could be supplied with library upgrades (some libs already come with automatic migration “scripts”)
I’m a photographer and what’s funny is, the amount of work he put into producing these images is almost harder than just taking the damn photos or dare I say drawing what you’d like to see an enhancing it with photoshop.

It might be AI generated but there’s still a lot of human work gone into the images.

The sad news for me personally is taking photos and working with models and lighting people etc is fun, same for meeting people and taking their portrait, this guy got images, the hard way and didn’t seem to get the experience.

Maybe he enjoyed sifting through thousands of images and stitching them together, then editing with photo shop. I don’t know but it sounds much less interesting than photography but hey, to this guy it’s art, so good luck.

All human art is the collection of human experiences at the time. It is not individual as all interactions we have that shape us as individuals arise out of our interactions with other people.

Kropotkin has something to say about the individual and the influence of others, but in short, you can not construct anything individually without resting on the shoulders of everyone that came before you.

The individual struggle is a struggle because of everyone around you, the way they behave towards you, and the way they don’t. Simultaneously if you were the last person on earth, your struggle would be the absence of everyone else.

Art is, by and large, an expression of the cumulative experiences of a person at that point in time, which come out of their interactions with everyone else. White implies black, and self implies other.

The impressionists, think Degas and Monet, went against the Salon and forged their own path, and that influenced their art. Their counter culture was by influenced by the very existence of mainstream culture.

To look the art in isolation and without context is to ignore their struggle of the individual against the broader society.

And in this view, AI art captures the cumulative experiences of all humanity, and with the right direction can show intent by an individual.
The prompt engineer has to explicitly set each parameter, he cant just press submit like the photographer presses the shoot button so I agree with you.
Underflows are much more common than overflows (most numbers are small) and people again and again fall under the impression that unsigned integers are a good way to represent positive numbers, which is not at all what they do. E.g. C++ is very unhappy with the mistake they made of representing sizes with unsigned types [1].

Unsigned types are also primarily useful when the types have very few bits -- like in bitfields -- but Java doesn't have those, and the uses of unsigned types in Java would be mostly restricted to interaction with native code and hardware, that not many do and for which we have other solutions. So some very dangerous disadvantages and not many advantages for a language like Java.

The sole reason I had compiz back then was to have the cube effect. I do miss my cube even in i3
Same in German.
To me, the real benefit of an external monitor is not the display size, but the height and position. Compared to a laptop-on-table setup, an external display allows the screen to be positioned higher to match the height of the eyes, while also keeping the keyboard lower to match the height of the arms. This makes working for extended periods more comfortable and reduces shoulder and neck pain.

When I cannot afford an external display, I have found that using a laptop stand and an external keyboard can help a lot.

You may want a vesa mount on the screen for the freedom to attach human-centered design display stands. It is an extra bullet point to look for on the features spec-sheet.
This is cool, but would like to give some higher level context about querying JSON files.

JSON is a row based file format. It doesn't allow query engines to skip rows or skip columns when running queries, so all data needs to get read into memory. That's really inefficient.

Column based file formats allow for query engines to skip entire columns of data (e.g. Parquet). Parquet also stores metadata on row groups and allows query engines to skip rows when reading data. These performance enhancements can speed up queries from 0x - 100x or more (depends on how much data is skipped).

Data Lakehouse storage systems abstract the file metadata to a separate layer, which is even better than storing it in the file footer like Parquet does.

This DuckDB functionality is cool, but I think it's best to use it to convert JSON files to Parquet / a Lakehouse storage system, and then query them. JSON is a really inefficient file format for running queries.

Whether or not a hoarder is "ahead" of you at having stuff is a matter of perspective. C# strives to be a very feature-rich language, while Java strives to be minimalistic. So it's pretty certain that any feature Java does end up adding will have been in C# first (although this one is not quite the same), but Java certainly doesn't want to go in the same direction.

On the other hand, Java's GCs, JIT compilers, and observability features are more sophisticated than .NET's. We like adding stuff to our runtime, while C# likes adding stuff to the language.
True, but that's always been the case with any product. There have always been imitations and knock-offs of any genuine product, whenever the technology or means to massively produce it cheaply and quickly becomes available. The effect of this is that it floods the market, a larger section of the population get to enjoy an inferior product (whether they care about that or not), but it doesn't take the genuine goods off the market. In some cases we create regulations around it if it becomes abusive, and companies can sort it out legally if they wish, but people who seek the original product will always have ways to find it.

In the case of art, I wouldn't label AI-generated works to be inferior, just different. Once we're able to distinguish them from traditional works done manually by humans, it will eventually settle into its own category, with its own supply and demand. The current problem is that it can pose as something that traditionally takes effort and skill to produce, but we'll find ways around that.

That person didn’t want to indulge you in trying to simplify them and put them in a box they don’t agree with. There is nothing wrong with that.

Perhaps they were tired, perhaps they found your question boring, perhaps they had some insecurities around their art or you, perhaps you rubbed them the wrong way.

Artists gaslight non-artists and say their work has soul and gatekeep "art" saying it can't be replicated. However this is not soul it is egoism and pointless toil.

> No such process exists for appointing EU commissioners

I'm really struggling to understand why you keep lying about this.

First of all, there is no such process for any politician everywhere in the World.

Because they are not building roads where people drive their kids on and they are not the solely responsible for building them, in democratic countries there's a lot of them contributing to a synthesis, there's government, there's opposition, there's third parties (so called because... you know!)

Secondly, There's no "regular tender" it's bullshit.

Of course there is, nobody would be candidated to be a commissioner if there's no ground.

I wouldn't be chosen by any party, ever!

Because I have no chances of winning the tender.

Thirdly, and most importantly, there's a vetting process in place in the EU, and any of the commissioners there has more enemies than supporters, including those who are competing for the same seat.

So please stop your anti-EU propaganda and talk about the points you think are problematic in EU, not some fantasy issue that does not exist.

> The ministers answer to the PM. They are effectively one governmental unit, EU commissioners are not part of it.

Just because the mechanic is slightly different it doesn't mean it's wrong.

In France the President is elected directly, in Italy it isn't, in USA it's somewhat in the middle. it's the process that makes institutions democratic, not the system you chose.

> EU commissioners can't be recalled mid-way through their term though, which isolates them from this.

It's the same for parliament members in Italy unless they either die or resign, so what?

A professional mix absolutely requires testing across multiple grades of devices.
