It's been about 20 years since I last looked into this but I think there were a few cases where people had "golden classifications" (IE, some sort of external proof of the grouping) that were more consistent with character features.

To be honest I'm not the best person to ask because every time I dip my toes in the area I realize (a) how little I know and (b) just how ugly these debates get. and (c) how much scientists like to treat some side observation as golden data that is absolutely right when trying to build support for their theory
Solar is not an economical or environment friendly mechanism to produce energy. This is a house of cards.
> I define the quality of the art by the emotions it evoques in me

He seems to not like it for that reason. The developers call the movement creepy and he basically says they can do creepy if they want, he doesn't.They also say their model doesn't understand pain and the movements reflect it, which he counters with an anecdote about disabled people he knows and how their muscles strain doing otherwise normal things and how not understanding pain is a problem.

It almost seems like they had no idea who they where trying to impress with their tech demo. I am far from an expert on his works but I don't see "creepy zombie animations" fitting in with any of his works.

But isn’t important in the hello world context and in other contexts I don’t think it’s a great comparison.

Typical node apps will ship with megabytes of extra files for functionality that would be present in the Java standard library. Even if I take your claim as fact, programming languages are about trade offs. While Java might suffer from download latency it will more than likely beat TS on execution time and gc latencies.
It is a fact that the IRS requires me to pay taxes in federal reserve notes.

That makes them real enough.
Yeah but I assume you also have money in an account that lets you withdraw it in less than two years?

A bank that only offers CDs or other long-duration deposits would be pretty weird.
The common way to distinguish between the definitions is to say a tomato is a culinary vegetable and a botanical fruit, but not a culinary fruit.

> The question of whether the tomato is a fruit or a vegetable found its way into the United States Supreme Court in 1893. The court ruled unanimously in Nix v. Hedden that a tomato is correctly identified as, and thus taxed as, a vegetable, for the purposes of the Tariff of 1883 on imported produce. The court did acknowledge, however, that, botanically speaking, a tomato is a fruit.

I love the fact that the first image all silhouetted almost looks like a Start Wars AT-AT or some other sort of Star Wars inspired thing with weapons to shoot. They clearly have the coms unit to talk with the pilot of whatever vessel it is. Yes please, I'd like a simulator of that
I guess the huge leap of capacitive touch over previous technologies is kind of a footnote, but definitely bears mentioning here. Probably CEOs/COOs would have been plenty familiar with resistive touch which was much worse technology before 2007.

Gamecom, Palm, Casio would have employed this virtually unusable stuff, and the very idea of a touchscreen might have still seemed funny, if you hadn't have tried it yet.
> There are probably millions of people subscribed to Netflix merely because pirating Netflix content is inconvenient enough to make people rather pay. How many would reconsider this if the user experience of pirating was exactly as convenient as a paid Netflix account?

The people extracting the content are people who do subscribe. The user experience of the people who pirate instead of subscribing is completely unaffected by DRM because the DRM is removed by the time it gets to them.

All the DRM does is make the experience of piracy better than that of subscribing, by inconveniencing paying customers and not pirates.

Notice that the people complaining about DRM are almost never pirates, who have cracked it all already. They're people who want to pay Netflix money so they can watch Netflix on their weird Linux setup or whatever instead of just downloading whatever they want in the Netflix catalog from the piracy sites, which would be much easier.
I develop with JavaScript professionally and I rarely think about floating point number/integers when building UI or Node.js code. The "number" type is good enough in 99% of use cases. If you really need integers, there are specialized uint arrays and BigInt that handle various use cases.
Why is capitalization inconsistent?

Some use sentence case, some title case.
In my experience, you should only resist or refuse a portion of an interview if you're comfortable just totally walking away from a job opportunity. I've said no to ~8ish interview components and only once was I offered an alternative. The other times I was simply removed from the candidate pool.
> You might have more rights on paper in the US, but in many respects, you have more of them in practice in Canada.

Generally speaking in the US, the rights you have in practice (as opposed to on paper) are determined by how wealthy you are. Much like how we have the best health care in the world if you're wealthy, but the worst (among wealthy nations) if you aren't.
But the longest maturity for CDs is around 5-10 years, while banks loan out money for 15-30 years for mortgages.

And most banks probably have much more money deposited in checking and savings accounts than in CDs.
That's the one. Thanks! It's definitely better than the OP link because maigret will also look for linked accounts, so it's definitely smarter.

I used to add a copyright notice to the bottom of my resume, to prevent distribution. Don't know how well this works practically speaking, especially in this electronic day and age.
You misunderstood me, I did not want to say that you can have some partial end-to-end encryption, I meant that not outlawing end-to-end encryption does not mean that you do or can do nothing against illegal content, i.e. there are other ways to fight this problem besides outlawing end-to-end encryption.
840 watts seems high.

As a point of reference, the input power connector on Tesla's new HW4 computer is rated for 10A @ 16v, or 160 watts.

In fairness to the authors, HW4 was not yet released when this paper was published.
> languages where functions are only second-class citizens, like C and Pascal.

1) Only if you define Pascal as only Wirth's very first version. That changed almost immediately.

2) Only if you refuse to equate “pointer to function” with “function”. Which in C, where “everything is a pointer” (a bit like in Unix Linux “everything is a file”), seems rather silly.
If you believe the God is all-knowing, then it follows that He's not constrained by the linearity of time. This gets you out of the paradoxes that arise around predestination and free will. But I don't think the average Christian thinks about it that way, unless they are in the subset that reads Science Fiction. I've known a few like that.

That page became extremely confusing until I realised "Deicer" wasn't a brand of airplane.
> Which “old” Scala? Scala 3 still has ~all the features of Scala 2.

You linked to a page that has several actual dropped features from Scala 3. If Scala 3 didn’t drop features, it would still be Scala 2. What exactly is the point of all this edgelordery? We get it, you think Scala is uncool, but that’s just like your opinion man. Did you really jump onto a comment about Scala just to shit on Scala? I’m horrified to think of using a language that someone like you might actually think is cool.
In what sense do you mean deindustrialization? It appears from various reports that NZ manufacturing output it at a record high. Do you mean as a % of GDP?

In the U.S. the number of people employed in manufacturing is lower than ever but the value of manufacturing has been steady at 12% of GDP since World War 2 ended.
Not sure that anyone need a backup if you know how to configure your email clients. Mines gets and keep all the emails so between my smartphone and my 2 laptops + their own backups, I have enough copies.
> That makes a big difference.

I do not see the difference. He wants a worker of certain quality, and apparently is not offering or able to offer sufficient pay to attract said worker from other options they have.

As for the second paragraph, I never meant to imply roofing or solar was special. As the proportion of younger age population declines, prices for work with lower quality of life will need to rise to compete with work that offers a higher quality of life.
And many expected the demise of office jobs in the 90s as computers took over. What actually happened is that companies leveraged the respective strengths of both automation and labor to increase growth.
Could be a demand thing.

Anecdotally, around 2010 I’ve worked for a company that used Thinkpad laptops, the majority of people would always choose touchpad over trackpoint.

The Veer's keyboard really worked well. The small screen was problematic for many sites, sure, and not having a good browser hurt it a lot (and especially the bugs, like reloading a webpage on first touch after inactivity, which means reloading it immediately after a long load time...). But the keyboard makes me want to use it again.
This situation isnt like that at all.
> Savings.

Those savings are gonna grow at a pretty slow rate if you can't lend with interest.
0.425% of men is about 12 million Americans, which coincidentally is the same number of Americans that the CDC reports “seriously considered suicide” in 2022. I’m sure it’s just coincidental, given that suicide rates are spiking higher among women than men right now, but I absolutely would consider 0.425% a valid sample size to consider when it results in n=12million.
Awesome, I was this close to making an extension for myself to do it, it's so tiring to cut out the refspam every time you copy a link.
It is also a breaking change to use new syntax and functions since old browser does not support new features. In this perspective `arr[-1]` seems a fair breaking change.
Typescript will have no adoption problem. It is the defacto only compile to js language supported in NPM. It is also ergonomic to JS devs who want or are forced (at work) to use typing and an option on most scaffolding tools like NextJS or CRA. The fact that TS is actually very good just confounds this more!

It will live as long ad JS is popular. The main threat is web assembly which will make JS compatibility seem quaint.
I'm sort of on the fence on that one still. The web is a fucking mess these days and the well developed apps are quite refreshing in comparison to half baked piles of excrement web offerings from the big technology companies and open source ecosystem.

What I really want is Gopher and a few well engineered portable native apps that aren't supported by advertising hegemonies.

Oh and nothing freedesktop has gone anywhere near.
Nope. I was a gold bug once, but I don't think it's a good way to manage the total money supply: it can't grow as fast as the economy (labor productivity) does. I view money is a public social tool, and so it should be owned by all of us. Hence I am in favor of a citizens dividend for growing the money supply.

I do think you should be able to trade fiat into gold and vice versa tax free, so gold can be used for savings, which it is very good at.

In fairness, nobody agrees with me on this stuff, including myself at times!
> He even designed a special suit that allowed him to play without revealing his identity

Which identity, ChatGPT?

Is he playing as Peter Parker and trying to hide his superhero identity (which obviously gives him unfair advantages due to spider strength/speed/reflexes/etc.) or playing as Spider-Man (which presumably would pack in the fans in spite of the obvious unfair advantages) and trying to hide his identity as Peter Parker?
The comment I responded to advocates for a world where this forum would never have existed. I could have been less snarky, but I am genuinely mystified how someone could have posted such a thoughtless and unsubstantiated comment and seemingly not even realized it.

Really? Most of the numbers I've seen suggest solar is the cheapest energy production there is, so it certainly seems economical.
Hard to say. Right now Superfeedr feels like a great value (less than $5/month) with the caveat about low-volume feeds. I think the API to add and remove feeds is silly (wet not dry) but getting updates through a webhook is nice.

If I had a lot of people using it I wouldn't mind a $500/month Superfeedr bill and I know their pricing goes down if I have a lot of feeds and I'm sure they'd love to talk if I was a bigger customer -- but there are all the agency problems that come up when one business depends on another business.

That said, web crawlers, scanners, and things like that were a subject I was interested in in the aught's and the last thing I want to work on now and Superfeedr frees me up to focus on the models and UI now.

Although the Assets, Liabilities, and Capital reporting available if you click "create financial reports for this institution" estimates 5.69% of deposits are insured. Is a corporate account limited to $250K of deposit insurance? If so, I imagine many of them may have much more than that, and the reporting does show almost 75% of the deposits are in accounts with greater than $250K, assuming I'm reading the report correctly.

It looks like this AR welding product from Miller is specific to MIG. A TIG simulator would be interesting, but it would probably be a lot more work to pull off convincingly.

(For the non-welders reading this: with TIG welding you hold a "torch" in one hand that has a tungsten electrode and it blows an inert gas such as argon at the work area, and in the other hand you have welding rod that you periodically dip into the pool. MIG, on the other hand, uses a torch where the filler rod is the electrode, and there's a motorized feeder that's constantly extending the filler rod as you weld.)

edit: It looks like Miller do also have a virtual TIG setup, someone else posted a link to it. It looks pretty good, actually.

> temporarily everybody

exactly! It is the person from Idiocracy with exactly 100% IQ. It only knows what the absolute average person know. For example, it knows almost nothing about healthcare in other countries (outside the US). Just watch me get lambasted on reddit after using info from ChatPGT: https://old.reddit.com/r/ShitAmericansSay/comments/11f5tbt/a...

On the other hand, in a subject area where you know very little, it's 100 IQ seems like genius! It fills in a lot of gaps. People comparing it to AGI are perfectionists, dramatic, or missing the point. It's not supposed to be smarter than us. and so what if it can't?

Take Adyen, a B2B payment processor - valued at $45B, and a company that we can no longer ignore when talking about Stripe. Founded a few years before Stripe, IPO’d in 2018, processing a similar volume and growing faster in 2022 than Stripe.

In 2022: processed €767.5B. Net revenue €1.3B. EBITDA of €728.3M. EBIDTA margin of 55% - similar to that of eg Visa or MasterCard.

The difference? Cost basis.

Adyen employs about half the people as Stripe, mostly in Europe (their HQ is in Amsterdam). It’s not just fewer people, but, most likely, lower cost per employee (European HQ vs US HQ, and the wage difference between the two).

They offer lower rates, collect less net revenue, and have a far bigger profit than Stripe.

Both.

The bank is telling two or more people they own (or, at least, have access to) the same dollar at the same point in time.

With duration matching you can have loans, but it is clear that depositor A can't get dollar X back until time point T, and that borrower B can have the dollar until then.

Poor move by the CEO. It's like he wanted to be honest with everyone but that wasn't a strong signal.

I think the proper formulation of the argument is whether Deep Blue seemed-to-understand chess better than Kasparov seemed-to-understand chess.

"Understanding" will turn out to be simply a compression with optimization toward survival of the compressing algorithm.

When "survival" finally resolves into a conflict between different algorithms, the winner will be that compression algorithm which compresses those that cannot compress themselves.
Airplanes already have built-in anti-icing. It usually just redirects hot exhaust air from the engines. That's what they use in flight.

Adding a separate system on every plane just for the landing/taxi/takeoff phase probably isn't worth the effort: it'd require them to carry around additional weight, and the deicing system would require additional maintenance.

But who knows, maybe we'll see innovative systems in the future which can deal with it in a better way!

These aren't used as teaching tools so much as "demo" tools. They are the rough welding equivalent to running a flight simulator on a laptop with a single USB joystick. They are good for bringing out to trade shows, job fairs, and other marketing venues to sort-of simulate what it's like to weld something, with all the dangers removed.
If you need to ask...
Kasparov only seemed to play chess. Who knows what REALLY goes on in his head. Maybe he daydreams and randomly moves the pieces and he's really extremely lucky. Maybe he's only regurgitating chess moves he saw in a book.

They are not mutually exclusive because they are defined in orthogonal ways.

"Vegetable" is defined by how a plant is cooked and eaten, and so has a lot of cultural and context specific influences. A vegetable can be a root (potato), a stalk (celery), a fruit (cucumber), seeds (beans), even non-plant fungi (mushroom).

A fruit has a very specific definition (especially in a biological or botanical usage). It's the "seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering" (Wikipedia).

The part of the cucumber we eat is the fruit (you can see its seeds). But the way we prepare and eat it means we classify it as a vegetable.

I think it's structural. Salaries between EE and CS sharply diverged decades ago, and I don't think they'll ever meet again.

The finances on pure software are just so much better. Better margins, better scale, better return on equity. Since ROE is always going to be better (because you're not touching atoms) you'll always have better valuation on the stock market, and be able to pay programmers better.

It's less a "gap" in the market and more "the market functioning correctly". There's no law of the universe that says programming a robot has to pay as well as programming a SAAS webapp.

Think about scale. If you teach programming at a middle school, you have maybe 100 customers at a time. If you work for a hardware company, you have 1,000,000 customers. If you work for facebook, you have 3,000,000,000 customers. Which one of these will pay the most?
The Deno style guide encourages the use of `#prop` over `private prop` [0].
Other guides such as the Google TypeScript Guide discourages their use [1] for now because they are transpiled to slow code.

What I could conclude is: use `#` over `private` for runtimes that support them or projects that can target recent runtimes and browsers.
