in Paris they created a overview bus map which in each node lists all bus lines passing through this node. if your source and target list the same number just take that one.

it folded out to A4

and that is all I've ever needed to get around by bus in Paris. and I was missing similar bus maps in Berlin and in London.

Maybe, but the latest Fed action violates a 40-year downtrend in interest rates, so it was exceptionally improbable from a historical perspective. From 2020 trough to 2022 peak, government interest rates increased almost 1,000%, which means the magnitude also is hard to anticipate or plan for, and the effects extreme from failing to do so. You can do a regression of interest rates from whenever to now, draw a line that's never violated until 2022 (even the 2020 lows were in-trend) and the 2022 highs were almost 50% higher than the trend.

I don't make excuses for dumb decisions, but... someone said recently when the Fed taps the brakes someone always goes through the windshield. This was a far more extreme scenario than tapping the brakes on a car. More like the moon stopped. We all knew it could theoretically, and what do you know, it just stopped.

> Most aviation would never have happened if this guy hadn't invented leaded gasoline.

Duh, of course it would. Aviation gasoline would have used other methods of increasing octane, and/or then we'd have made do with slightly lower octane avgas. And engines would have been designed accordingly.

The only reason why getting rid of leaded avgas has been a 40 year saga is that they have been chasing the dream of a 1:1 replacement that would require no changes to 100% of existing aircraft. Now it seems they finally have such a fuel in G100UL, we'll see if and how quickly usage of it expands to replace leaded avgas.

The error management was purposely build so you don't have to pass an additional parameters to know if your call failed or not. If you have to pass a parameter which will be then unused (null, undefined, etc) if no error was raised then you get a redundant mechanism.

I think the Zig team recognize this because they still have an old issue open for it which is still planned [0].

Personally i never like the "interactive" part of fzf, ideally i should be able to do micro | fzf "myfile" and have it opened in the editor (fzf matching the first result for the file name)

Instead it's :

micro $(fzf) , then type the filename , select it and presee enter to get it opened in the editor.
Note then that there's an inherent conflict in programming language design space between introducing too many abstraction building tools and low-level details. It is very hard to make things truly orthogonal. E.g. memory and resource management tends to spill all over the code, with the other example being error handling.

And once a language designer adds ways (and a programmer culture) to hide things - it becomes very hard to follow the code.

Zig attacks this design space from a low abstraction and explicit flow point of view.
I studied the financing aspect of large building construction in a law school class. It works in a similar fashion. The development money is doled out on a very structured basis, sometimes literally one floor at a time. There are numerous milestones and you have to stick to the schedule or the money stops.

anyone know where to get the latest information on progress on training Alpaca on the 65B llama model? I've seen a few reports on Twitter etc of people running the llama CPP script with the 65B model on an M1 macbook, but would be good to see more detailed instructions on how to do it and a writeup of how well it works compared to the smaller models etc.

I'm happy to help out if anyone is working on this, either with running/testing or the write up - I have a 64GB m1 macbook, but not a lot of time or patience to figure out how to do the correct conversions/splitting etc.

Slight nitpicking:

Edison used lots of different companies for their own business cases and I think the Edison Illuminating Company only built electric generators. So indeed in the beginning of electricity, when the field was most untested/starting up, you did shop at special companies for a generator or lamps or whatever instead of using an integrated whole-in-one solution of a mega corp! Wikipedia:

> Edison Lamp Company, a lamp manufacturer in East Newark, New Jersey; Edison Machine Works, a manufacturer of dynamos and large electric motors in Schenectady, New York; Bergmann & Company, a manufacturer of electric lighting fixtures, sockets, and other electric lighting devices; and Edison Electric Light Company, the patent-holding company and financial arm for Edison's lighting experiments

These were only later consolidated into General Electric.

> When the government says "You give me $100 and I'll give you back more later"

No it's the other way around. The FED rate is the rate for which the FED will lend you money. The government borrows money by writing out government bonds, which' yield (rate) is determined by the market.
Every time the FED lends someone money, it basically prints it. Higher interest rates will cause fewer people to borrow money -> less money is printed -> inflation goes down. At least that's how it works in theory.
This is interesting. Would be curious to see if this can replace pydantic for specific cases.

>Where are the losses?

There don't have to be actual losses in the confidence game that is our fractional-reserve banking system. Banks only need to hold a certain fraction of their depositors money in liquid reserves (hence "fractional-reserve"...). Every modern bank would be insolvent immediately if all depositors decide to withdraw their money, the money that they own but keep at the bank.

We rely on this being a very unlikely event, and it is unlikely as long as depositor behavior is uncorrelated. But if there's panic it becomes correlated and boom.

> What are the impaired investments?

Again, there don't even need to be impaired investments for this to happen, but the problem appears to be that safest of possible investments: government bonds. Which banks may even required to hold. The recent rise in interest rates means that the liquid value of the low-interest (we even had negative interest rates for Bunds, for example) bonds that banks are holding has declined massively.

These bonds will still get paid out in full when reaching maturity, so the money isn't really gone and there isn't a loss. If you can wait for them to mature. But if they have to sell those bonds now because an unexpectedly high number of depositors want their money, then they have to sell them at a loss.

So central banks are now facing a conundrum: raise interests rates to fight inflation, but risk the financial system going boom. Or lower rates again and risk inflation running out of control.

essentially the point I was making. Although I think real salaries also stagnated because every household became a two-income household so people's household incomes rose hiding the fact that they were actually getting screwed over.
The article is also a joy to read. Well done.
This is great advice, but one more thing to remember is that $100,000 today is not the same as $100,000 in 30 years. It’ll be closer to half that if inflation reverts to the mean. Most calculators will factor inflation in (such as the one linked), but definitely worth considering it when planning your savings target.

You can make a point about the administration, but if you’re talking about nepotism, specifically, you’re making a point about the wrong administration. There’s a much better example of a recent administration engaging in “peak nepotism”, a recent one that had the president’s children working in the White House.

I’m assuming the point you’re trying to make isn’t actually about nepotism and you’ve simply misunderstood what the word means.
Sure, as well as the right abstractions come from professionals who are not treated like stupid kids.

Instead of explicitly bailing out banks why can't the government in this situation change the rules of the government bonds for the specific bank to let them mature today instead of at the nominal time? Or this is maybe how they do the bailout..
No. When I ask a workmate how something works, they don't just lie to me. YMMV
You are unfortunately assuming incorrectly.

Bluetooth on iOS is a mess. If you are paired but not connected to a device, all you can do is forget it.

If you are paired and connected, you can:

* Change the name of the device as it appears on your phone

* If it's an audio device change its function (for example "car stereo", so iPhone will not automatically decrease volume if you put the volume to max which it will do for "headphones", as you probably control volume from the car stereo itself)

* Disconnect

* Forget

That's it.
Also transparent compression is a thing in case you need to squeeze out more space. And I don't mean the shoddy NTFS active compression. It received support for much more efficient compression algorithms since win10 which are accessible using compact.exe[0], albeit passive rather than active so there is decay once files get modified.

It reminds me of The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists where the capitalists conspire to make the local government purchase their failing electric company (written in 1910):

'Something will 'ave to be done, and that very soon,' Grinder was saying. 'We can't go on much longer as we're doing at present. For my part, I think the best thing to do is to chuck up the sponge at once; the company is practically bankrupt now, and the longer we waits the worser it will be.' [...]

'Sell out!' replied Grinder with a contemptuous laugh in which the others joined. 'Who's going to buy the shares of a concern that's practically bankrupt and never paid a dividend?'

'Who's to buy?' repeated Sweater, replying to Grinder. 'The municipality of course! The ratepayers. Why shouldn't Mugsborough go in for Socialism as well as other towns?' [...]

'Afterwards,' resumed Sweater, 'I'll arrange for a good report of the meeting to appear in the Weekly Ananias. I'll instruct the Editor to write it himself, and I'll tell him just what to say. I'll also get him to write a leading article about it, saying that electricity is sure to supersede gas for lighting purposes in the very near future. Then the article will go on to refer to the huge profits made by the Gas Coy and to say how much better it would have been if the town had bought the gasworks years ago, so that those profits might have been used to reduce the rates, the same as has been done in other towns. Finally, the article will declare that it's a great pity that the Electric Light Supply should be in the hands of a private company, and to suggest that an effort be made to acquire it for the town. [...]

'Come to think of it,' observed Rushton arrogantly, 'why should we trouble ourselves about the opinion of the ratepayers at all? Why should we trouble to fake the books, or declare a dividend or 'ave the harticles in the papers or anything else? We've got the game in our own 'ands; we've got a majority in the Council, and, as Mr Sweater ses, very few people even take the trouble to read the reports of the meetings.' [...]

'Well, 'ere's success to Socialism,' cried Grinder, raising his glass, and taking a big drink.
Fact remains that wealth inequality has increased enormously over the last decades. This is a big economic issue that deserves journalistic coverage.

If you don't want to frame it in terms of "evil" or "profiteering" that's fine.

But this issue is important. The expected consequence of inequality is reduced economic output (in terms of utility).
It leads to inefficiency.
I feel this is a perspective that's not stressed enough.
> Talk with anyone that has built a house and they'll have horror stories of months of delays.

This can easily be explained in the part of the world I live in. Small/medium construction companies prefer to work on bigger projects than a house for obvious reasons. So they'll come over and do parts of your house in between jobs on the bigger sites which freqently means massive delays.
> > Another common example is when you are implementing an interface method or overriding a superclass method

> This doesn't seem to be supported and could cause many issues e.g. if a base interface adds an overloaded method with a similar signature. Suddenly we will have a conflict and compilation issues.

I think this is already a risk when modifying interfaces or superclasses. For example, if you add a method to a superclass, a subclass might already have a method with the same name/arguments but different return type, which would break compilation.

I like classical music. I like listening to the music of people who lived hundreds of years ago. I try to understand what they were trying to say. I try to connect with them on a human level across the centuries, to their joys and sorrows.

But what's even greater, is living traditions. Which carry much of that history, but are very much alive themselves, and not operating on someone's official approval for the "right" way to do it.

And bluegrass, and the wider style of American music which I like to call "Prairie Home Companion Fusion" (I never listened to that old radio show, but I found out a ton of music I love was connected to it) - it totally is one of those wonderful, living traditions.

Like you can make $5 million a year now, but have things suddenly end on you at some point when things come crashing down, but probably not for several years, or you can make $1 million a year, but play it safe, and in five years get a $7 million long-term bonus.

Might as well get as much out of the company now and trust the government will bail you out (or not, what do they care, they can just move on to the next thing, and even if not, they've already made a shit ton of money, they could just retire, no big deal).
They didnt have hold-to-maturity losses like SVB - loss of deposits was just loss of (future) revenue.

Wrong way (according to you): Compute factorial using AVX intrinsics

Best way (according to you): Make a factory class AbstractMathFormulaCalculatorBuilderFactory to instantiate a builder class AbstractMathFormulaCalculatorBuilder which can build an AbstractMathFormulaCalculator, from which you derive a FactorialCalculator in which you use an AbstractMathFormulaExecutor, built with an AbstractMathFormulaExecutorBuilder, generated by AbstractMathFormulaExecutorBuilderFactory.
