The difference between spell checking and fact checking is in what you're checking against: the facts of grammar or the facts of the world.

I don't see any qualitative difference between them. The data is facts, the output is either "correct" or "wrong", and the function from one to the other is the model. What do we gain from calling one of them "truth function" and the other "grammar function"? What makes that relevant to reasoning?
Yes. I looked into this here: https://behind-the-screens.tv/#terminator
I love how on the internet, people make a big effort to criticize arguments and not show any evidence that AT LEAST, proves that their criticism makes sense.

So here I ask you: given that Psychology is a social SCIENCE, also a part of STEM. And psychologists definitely use those tests, I was personally introduced to them by a psychologist that helped me with career coaching, recognized on his field with a bunch of papers.

Now, please explain yourself: why is it a pseudoscience? I want proofs.
> Evidently, Ukraine will prevail.

Also, if you need to write "evidently", then it's probably not that evident.
It's because these things are chosen across a perceived axis of "developer comfort/productivity", and UX (if it is considered at all) is an afterthought.
As someone who is not an EA, but has been peripherally aware of them for years, the bed nets stuff was their big thing until maybe three years ago, but it genuinely is the case that a lot of their energy had recently redirected to AI safety and other X-risks.

That isn't to say that the malaria stuff isn't still a big topic, but there has been a shift.
What has gone wrong is that AI researchers and futurologists have warned for decades that AIs replacing jobs was coming (though everybody was taken by surprise that artists would be first) and that we needed to change our paradigms about labor quickly.

We should be embarrassing the weight of labor lifted from our shoulders and organize society so that it becomes desirable. Replaced professionals should be allowed to go into retirement directly and access some form of basic income. There should be incentives to automating your own work.

Now incentives are on the other way: everyone tries (understandably) to make it as hard as possible to be replaced but this just leads to a world of bullshit jobs pretending to be useful while the AIs do all the heavy lifting.
It's also not practical example of it's use, if I'm going to be using that tool to make a book about "baking ideas", I'd expect to have actual photos of the food I'm making in the book, is that too much to ask for?

Maybe that's supposed to be showing "mock ups" or something?
> The Big Bang theory itself has many other problems that the mainstream scientific community continue to ignore and paper over. The latest evidence from the latest deep space telescope do not sit well with established science. They will not be able the hide the non-cosmological redshift skeleton for much longer.

Not to disappoint you, but the latest evidence you are talking about is more of a problem for the people studying galaxy formation than it is for the Big Bang theory. The evidence for the Big Bang is very solid. We can literally see the state of the Universe when all matter has been a hot, dense plasma. I fully expect some details to be ironed out, but that spacetime started with a (near) singularity is extremely well established and I wouldn't expect that to change. Don't think redshift is the only or even the best evidence for the Big Bang.
Calling React the next IBM is giving React way more credit than it's worth. Sure, basic knowledge of React will land you a frontend dev job pretty much anywhere in the world. However most of that work will be maintenance. If anything React is the new PHP.
If someone else wrote this comment, would you find it useful?
I think we’re on the same page here.

Neither of us agree with a blanket assertion that code written in Rust is flawless and free of bugs.

This can be easily disproved by looking at the bugs fixed in the Rust compiler and standard library, and looking at open soundness issues in the Rust issue tracker.

I think CVEs are useful in tracking the security of your code, but can’t be meaningfully compared between languages. Different languages and ecosystems have differing bars on what needs a CVE.

The important takeaway is that while Rust and Rust code in general aren’t perfect, they’re still substantially better than the alternatives. Better is hard concept to convey and get people to buy into. They see a couple of bugs and say “well, there’s bugs either way so what difference does it make”.

1. The obsession with measurable "product success" is part of the problem. Nobody will tell you they prefer your app because of performance, because it's not a perceptible thing your average user will notice. Features are much more important, true. You shouldn't care about performance at all for a prototype, true. But when you have an established product, not caring about the speed at all is a mistake IMO. This also has second-order effects for battery life, for example.

2. True, it depends on the type of app. For anything that is a type of "editor" - website builder, word processor-like thing, kanban board - you operate on a data model that you save in the background. Async calls are fairly unimportant for the overall feel there.

3. To me it's hard to untangle. The reigning paradigm is declarative UI, for great reason. It's so much saner than any manual updates. But this encourages a design where you don't think about what DOM updates will really happen after an action, and this is where the problem lies. A big part of it is also the DOM model and layout. In the extreme, you have a declarative UI library like ImGui which doesn't have any VDOM, it just rerenders every frame, and it's insane how quick it does it. I haven't been able to bring it to its knees, it just maintains 60FPS constantly, with a lot of frame time to spare.

4. It's not hard for me to believe this. I didn't say other frameworks are better. Could be that the whole DOM diff approach is the culprit, or the slowness of DOM updates and relayouts.
And because these commanders and soldiers don't want to end up in a Siberian prison or worse, they report everything is going according to plan, there are no losses in the russian army, russian weapons have no analogs anywhere in the world and Kiev will soon be taken.
For most part of the 20th, a bulk of the energy humanity was able to extract was used for industrialization. Now it seems that a vast bulk of the energy being extracted will go towards computation.
Intel Engineer Outs Panther Lake Architecture on LinkedIn
This is a separate (but important) issue. The development and effect that tech like this will have on the place of the artist or designer in the future is going to be a similarly seismic shift for the industry, just as the camera and printing press were in their time. This is going to happen more-or-less regardless of what the outcome of the copyright issue is.
I was super familiar with Nibble Magazine when I saw The Terminator in the theatre and it totally broke me out of my suspension of disbelief. I was still a youngster and almost wanted to say something out loud! haha.
To name just one thing that bugs me: You can't switch modes with function keys any more. Previously you could go between Scientific,Programmer, etc. with function keys and now you have to use the miserable hamburger menu.

I absolutely hate the UI as well, but that's probably subjective. For example, why isn't the input area clearly distinct instead of blending into the surrounding with no border ?
Running your engineering onboarding program
Try selling React shit to corporates who have corporate malware infested Edge running on overloaded Citrix nodes or the average corporate android that was made about 3 years ago.

We still get <100ms page delivery with server side rendering and lightweight JavaScript DOM overlays. Our React infested competitors, not so much to the point their clients have been shitposting on twitter about it.

And we actually can debug our product!

I've known lots of intelligent people who pursue stupid goals.

I maybe agree with you that there's an this belief that a maximally intelligent creature will blindly follow maximally obviously stupid goals, and that belief is under-argued, but your phrasing above isn't the slam dunk argument that you seem to believe.
I've been following daily updates about Ukraine war from few popular channels that I can highly recommend. For those interested:

- Denys Davydov (Ukrainian, most frequent updates, also has telegram channel which has a lot more battleground details than what youtube allows to show)

- Jake Broe (US army veteran mostly providing American perspective)

- Arthur Rehi (Estonian providing decent summaries)
archlinux only added an installer very recently.

Besides, setting encryption manually and then installing openbsd with its very fast installer has always been faster than using the interactive debian installer so in the grand scheme of things it wasn't that big of a deal.
JSX isn't a new language, it's syntactic sugar for React.createElement() or whatever other pragma you prefer (like the Preact or Vue equivalents).
Usually you want tokens per second, not seconds per token. So it's a bad sign.
2023 State of Open Source Report
I think the argument is that due to emergent behavior and possibly perverse incentives corporations are indistinguishable from slow-moving AI -- they can be treated like independent agents.

Elsewhere in the thread, it's brought up that AI could move faster than corporations generally move. That might be true, but there are still physical limits: the speed of light, moving mountains of steel takes energy, etc.
Have a look at Circle from Sean Baxter [0]. It's pretty impressive.

Performance mostly matters depends on the target audience.

For example, if you have a React-based wrapper around some SAP Gateway calls to replace the standard SAP UI then the user doesn't have much say. Because of the perceived better UX. The users of the solution inside companies (think multinationals, larger government etc) your call agent that use the React-based SAP portal can't really say I am not going to use it. Hands are tight.

The only time performance really matters when you have paying customers
> I don't see any qualitative difference between them.

You don't see any qualitative difference between fact checking or spell checking a text? Well then you are a lost cause, we can't discuss this any longer. Basically every human understands that those two are qualitatively different, if you don't then you are so alien to most human thinking that we can't discuss this further, there will be no common ground.
> don't forget to use key as needed, and className

Those are part of React, not JSX itself. Compare Vue's use of JSX, for example, which just uses `class` and `for` instead of `className` and `htmlFor`.
More like 300 baud. At 300 baud (30 cps) you can still read it as it arrives.
Print is also not a text only format; it's a designed space, with a mountain of effort given to typesetting and presentation.

Tank Control Experiments
I have a beefy machine and fast internet. Yet, JIRA is annoyingly slow. Half the time, pages on my bank’s website take forever to load, or don’t load at all.

I don’t have any numbers, just some anecdotal experience like the above.

It is not just speed. The UI of many sites suck too. Amazon, GoDaddy, for example.

Then there are ads. We don’t see ads in between content anymore. It is content within ads these days.

I am thankful that we can do so much online these days. But the experience could be better
It’s not loose schema at all. All the tools that wrap it are.

You don’t know something is going to work unless you actually do it.
Russia is struggling to invade Ukraine. The report starts off with

> Provide basic military training and basic medical training to large parts of society

as an opening recommendation. Are they serious? Why would we bother? It is obvious that the Russian army can't challenge the NATO army as it stands.
Is there a way for the browser to verify these? At the moment it feels like you just need CSS with a green tick on your clone site to spoof this.
I wouldn't waste a second writing about it if it happened only once.
Wrong link I believe.

Also if secure-boot/tpm is not desired or not available systemd can now start openssh very early to allow user to type passphrase and for non systemd system one can use tinyssh-initramfs or dropbear-initramfs depending on keys requirements. Last option is dedicated kvm (which also work for openbsd).
Just installed it. It's crazy fast.
I don't see a problem with useEffect. It releses you from thinking about component lifecycle.

Conceptually the body of your component runs on every render. If you want to have some effect on your component not running in sync with that then you have useEffect to set it up and clean it up not when the component is mounted, unmoutend, rerendered ... just when the stuff you are interested in changes.
> If you can insert a usb-plug and boot from that you could unlock the disk with the help of the tpm, or interrupt grub and set init=/bin/bash.

You can't easily do that as the platform control headers will be different to those set by Windows. You can't brute-force it as they have a realtime clock and lock after about 32 attempts, granting one more attempt for each ten minutes. Getting the bit-locker key from a discrete TPM v1.2 or v2.0 requires being a bus pirate [1]. Getting it from a "soft" TPM inside a CPU is likely much, much harder.

I’ve never seen it happen either. But the point is this allows them to be bypassed entirely.
The developer (my customer) of the Atari ST graphics program was wicked :)
When he detected (in runtime at random places) that the program was cracked, he added a invisible watermark to the output of the graphics program.
When someone produced public, commercial work with a cracked version of his software, he could prove it was done with a non-paid cracked version of his software. He could "convince" several user to pay him retrospective.
Firecracker looks great but it requires bare metal instances or nested virtualization (which is not supported by EC2 instances IIRC).

How do you run firecracker?
My strong belief is that HPMOR is a Harry Potter fanfic not for any calculated reason, but just because the author was in a demographic maximally interested in making Harry Potter fanfic.
Guilty here, but have been doing so for so long that it's largely muscle memory at this point and the original rationale has been lost. In mitigation, it certainly used to be the case that you were likely to come across a broad variety of Unixy flavours and hence using highly conservative scripting constructs made sense; then after a while these become second nature, and unless they cause actual problems they just stay in the mental toolkit.
~4 billion years ago there was possibly a big refactor [1]; after the refactor the RNA machine got somewhat stable for the next 4+ billion years. There is no technology in our computer machines that will be able to withstand 4 billion years of external change. In fact, with all our clouds and AIs, we are closer to the caves than to that kind of technology. But it's great that the techno-giants of today with trillions in market cap and billions in R&D give us new drop-shadow effects: we need more riboswitch-like technology [2].

Don't fetch data from your views!

React enables v=f(s) by making DOM updates faster. v=f(s) was always a good idea, but before vDOM, replacing the HTML of the page on every little state change was too much for the browser.

- Now you describe your views as pure functions of their inputs and stop caring about them, React cares about them. You know that with the right s, the right v will follow.

- You need to care and manage your app's state carefully, yes, and everything goes in there. Fortunately, patterns and frameworks like Redux make it releatively straightforward to do this.

You can still make a mess, sure, and make mistakes, etc, of course. No silver bullet. But you can now deal with those two separately. If you start fetching data from your components directly you're back in jQuery hell with extra steps.
We should be embarrassing the weight of labor lifted from our shoulders and organize society so that it becomes desirable. Replaced professionals should be allowed to go into retirement directly and access some form of basic income. There should be incentives to automating your own work.

Completely disagree with this view, especially when it comes to art.

This is not advancing society, or art, or anything, it's a freaking knock off factory that's been developed and used for commercial gain. It's not the same as manual loom weavers being replaced, this is a way to steal peoples stuff with little trace or accountability. This is legal trash and MS has plenty of lawyers to make you feel otherwise.

I was playing with it today and I couldn't believe the crap I was seeing. Nearly every single known artist is known because they developed a unique style, and worked to develop that style. They didn't just copy other peoples stuff and sell it. To make a machine that just rips off peoples styles and then you charge money for it is freaking lame as and I really hope they get sued hard for it, actually they should be taxed to pay for all the fantasy retirement money you speak of.

Do you know that throughout history there has been many, many artists who made counterfeit art works for money? There has been many, many print shops ripping off work etc. This is absolutely no different to automating that same level of theft. In my opinion, what's going on there isn't even really that original.

This isn't just about research or advancing anything, because it's not. It takes much and gives back very little. If it was for research, do it in a university, generate some new cool things with it and leave it at that. Having a machine which can just "draw this and do a half ass job at ripping off someone who worked hard to create something cool", what a low blow.

Disclaimer: I'm not an artist, so it's not personal, I just now bullshit when I see it, and that thing is bullshit, regardless of the technology behind it.

> I don’t want this war to continue.

Neither do Ukrainians. But they don't have much of a choice really.

> Already too many people died on both sides.

And who started that?

> This is not my war and I don’t want to get involved in any way.

> I’m 40 years old and I want to care for my family (daughter & girlfriend).

Yeah, as do Ukrainians, but they can't because someone wants to kill them just because they didn't like the idea of no longer being Ukrainians.

> It’s a shame the Western world and Ukraine deceived Russia with the Minsk accords.

Ukrainians wanted to be working more closely with the west. Would you like to be relocated to Russia, or going to prison and your daughter going to orphanage if you didn't want to be Russian [0]?

Musk apologizes after mocking laid-off Twitter employee with disability
oh god, this thing gives me shivers. Commands are executed directly?
I am trying to do the same. What I find the hardest is getting into the marketing/sales mindset. I hate selling. I am a developer, I like creating, improving things, I don't find natural having to tell others how awesome my product is and how it might help them, I have an intrinsic and wrong expectation of "build it and they will come" that it's very hard to get over.
>Functional components and hooks were a huge innovation to class components and significantly improved the ergonomics of the library.

I see this said a lot with particular regard to hooks, and to this day I just can't buy in.

For whatever problems class components have, they enforce a general layout of the component in a way that hooks don't. Reading some codebases that are all in on hooks feels like the wild west and is frankly nightmare-ish to untangle.
Isn't Jira server-side rendered?
> switching track is difficult [...] (And I say this having recently sucessfully made the switch from React to Svelte)

Having developed with Angular and React, and dabbling with Vue, I have to say that Svelte has the best ergonomics of the lot, and the language tutorial is so approachable. I haven't had to think about performance or state to the degree that I have in other frameworks. Any workplace could easily skill up a Svelte dev from a React dev.

My take on fake sugar is, if you use it for weight loss, you've messed up. You'll still crave sugary stuff, and when you don't have fake sugar handy, you'll eat the real thing (in restaurants, etc.). On the other hand, if you don't eat sugar much, you quickly find that apples, oranges and even carrots are actually super sweet, but you it's hard to eat enough of those to gain weight.
Although I agree with the sentiment of your post, #1 is blatantly wrong.

Most of my successful work has been specifically outperforming the competition in a way that makes users choose our product. Performance is an orthogonal feature that improves all other features, and even changes what your clients can do with your system, as in making new workflows viable.
Are there any good tutorials for Alibre? I got into 3d printing couple of years ago and now looking into designing my own functional print models. I played around with fusion 360. But their licensing kinda turned me off. Tried out freecad and found it just as frustrating as others have noted here. So i’m looking for that one tool that I can invest some time into where I can sorted make it my IDE for all things CAD.
Looks like a consulting company report (I could say a name, but there are more that apply).

Also, despite "...with combat-experienced...", it feels like no skin in the game.
2 meanings, yep:

1 in an evident manner : clearly, obviously

2 on the basis of available evidence

(It can be used ironically for whatever that word means, but, ironically every word can be)

(From Merriam-Webster)
> Performance is very very rarely a contributor to a product success. Users prefer more features over more performant app all the time (both directly when asked and indirectly by what products they choose).

I close sites all the time when they fail to work quickly. I have aborted orders on sites midway through when the interaction became sluggish enough that I wasn't confident in the value of the product anymore.

This statement reminds me of those Gordon Ramsay shows where a restaurant owner says "the customers like my food!" when it's obviously subpar. The fact is that the customers that didn't like the food politely go away and don't come back.

Your other points get more directly at framework performance versus other performance concerns. I have fewer opinions about those.
I am trying to pay for marketing, but it's almost impossible to find good marketers/partners to market my product. If someone is really good, they don't need a product, they just market themselves and become influencers.
