This is correct, and to elaborate: the NYPD (1) is largely staffed by employees who live outside of the city, and (2) has an openly revanchist attitude towards the citizens they ostensibly protect and serve.

Under the current scheme, there is no incentive structure that "fixes" the NYPD; the NYPD is functioning as intended, and in broad conflict with the roles that constrain every other NYC civil servant (e.g., around living in the city).
Wow this looks amazing. I am eagerly awaiting a Linux version. We have ~150 Linux desktops and training or collaborating via one sided google meets can be limiting.

I have a Steam controller and it's really Not It. The build quality is quite mediocre and the controls are laid out weird. The clickable touch areas are hard to click right and controls generally just don't feel that great.

The Deck controls are worlds ahead of the Steam Controller. Better buttons, better hand positions, better quality, better all around.
> I'm so offended by the idea of this that I'll personally fund $10k of training runs myself in a jurisdiction where it isn't banned if this ever became law in the US.

And this is exactly the risk. These things will just go other places while the US trips over its salty billionaires trying to create political red tape to allow their own businesses to catch up.

Surely Elon has no reservations about putting premature self driving cars on the road. Or are we just going to pretend that the last decade of his business failures have nothing to do with this hypocrisy? At least GPT hasn’t killed anyone yet.

An open letter full of forged signatures and conflicts of interest aren’t convincing enough for the repercussions of the government stepping in. More than anything, this just reeks of playing on peoples fear of change.

New things are scary, but in my opinion, this kind of drastic measure starts with broad interest panels that first evaluate and detail the risks. Ooo scary doesn’t cut it.

> I'd say the responsible thing to do is verify if the risk-benefit ratio actually warranted mandates or not for each new variant that became dominant. By the time Omicron became the dominant variant, I could not see any strong reason why mandates were still in place.

How is that any different from what happened? When Omicron's severity was understood, vaccines mandates went away.

There’s a very good chance that their new jobs are similar to their former jobs.

Unfortunately, the term “tech” has become diluted to the point of worthlessness. Every company of any size needs programming, statistics, and such.

Conversely many companies swept under the “tech” term don’t develop any technology at all.

It’s so bad that actual technology development is now referred to as “deep tech”.
If someone wants to "give away their secrets", it is authoritarian to tell them they can't.

> along with decimal floating point

Source? I'd find this a bit strange because:

1. I suspect decimal floating point is quite expensive to implement computationally.

2. Not an expert, but I think the floating-point algorithms and proofs for bases other than 2 are less well researched and less well known.

3. A calculator is a resource-constrained device.

4. Are there even any real benefits? Yes, some human-friendly numbers have an exact finite representation that is missing in base-2, but I can't see why would that matter, compared to just using 32-bit or 64-bit IEEE-754.
> The ruling on appeal was that the police in that case had no special duty to that particular person, but still had a duty to the public at large.

But "duty to the public at large" doesn't mean anything, right? Duty to an individual can be litigated when the police fail to perform it. There's no way to hold the police accountable to "the public at large."

I agree that, taken to its extreme, it would be problematic to hold the police responsible to serving every single call perfectly. But we seem to be nowhere near that standard.
I adore my Steamdeck. I've had mine for the past six months and during that time I've had to spend more time in hospital waiting rooms than I'd have liked, but it's been an excellent companion. Over the years I've owned many consoles and built a few gaming PCs, but my entire interest in how I interact with games now is portable first. It's funny, I feel like I've gone back to where I started when my first game system was the original Game Boy.
I believe Bragg probably knows what he's doing, but the charge against Cohen isn't a good argument.

Cohen really got a raw deal from the prosecutor and basically got threatened with more charges, and his wife getting charged, unless he pleads guilty within a day or so. That's why the quality of the individual charges in that plea deal can't be taken for granted.

He's called for his supporters to protest and posted an image of him swinging a baseball bat at the DA's head while calling him a "Soros backed animal". About the indictment, he called the police the gestapo and said "our country is being destroyed, as they tell us to be peaceful!" He is trying to incite violence.
An earlier comment says:

> It's so external dependencies don't have to infect your codebase. So you can actually apply a consistent code style within your project.

Say an external dependency has a declaration called 'getFileSystem', and in my Nim codebase I refer to it as 'get_file_system', but last year someone accidentally committed 'get_filesystem'. In this case neither usage matches the declaration. Does the linter flag both spellings because they don't match 'getFileSystem'?

EDIT: And what about reflection? If someone wrote `newCall("get_filesystem")`, will the linter fix that too?

I see it less as an aristocracy (most of which are sidelined and/or laughed at), but instead a highly-evolved technocracy which runs Europe according to their ideal of what the citizens should want, and with a certain fear of democracy based on the occasionally vile things that European democracies have done. There is a definite fear of the people, and a elite consensus that they must be managed for their own good.
Well, it would be quite noteworthy from a historical perspective. Has Poland ever been ahead of Britain economically in the past 1000 years? Poland periodically gets chopped up by its neighbors, WW2 was the 4th time the same thing happened and also I believe Poland was significantly more destroyed than Britain during WW2. They are fairly disadvantaged geographically, no moat to speak of. Their economy suffered under communism until around 30 years ago. I don’t think any racism is required to be surprised at the prospect of Poland overtaking Britain economically.
So humans will build God and so we all best get religion, and fast?
Agree that for a while at least it seems you'll need to understand the domain it is helping you with. That said, with the improvements in GPT4 over 3 in such a short time, and with plugins, I would be surprised if it takes any longer than a couple of years to be much much better at this to the point it is correct most of the time. You will probably still need domain knowledge at that point, not quite sure if that will last either.
If only it supported RV32IMAC and/or XTensa one could use it on one of the ESP32 variants.
EAC runs in kernel mode on Windows, but is limited to user mode on Linux. It's relatively easy to evade detection by the Linux version, and that's reflected in the fact that the most popular Apex Legends cheats now target the Linux version even though most of the people using them probably aren't regular Linux users. Dual-booting into Linux is a small price to pay to minimise the chance of getting caught and losing your account.
Why don't we put the ownership of the actions back on the individuals? Presumably you and I would never destroy private property because it became a viral trend. We need parents to step up and educate their children on responsible decision making, and those breaking laws* should be held accountable.

packages.json has many more - over 2000.
They also regularly use their lights and sirens just to get through traffic. Those constant little violations of the law have a cumulative effect, like how broken windows and other minor violations make a neighborhood feel less safe.
Their verified ratings are all over the place. I have seen fully verified rated games that lock up for minutes whenever they play a sound effect, or you change something in the character creator. On the other hand Skyrim is marked as "playable", but not fully verified because you have to manually pull up the keyboard to enter your character's name once at the beginning of a new game.

If I had to hazard a guess as to why, is that every time they push updates to proton they don't test the whole catalog. So fixes and regressions happen without them knowing.
Very right, but I would say that we have much more access. Just using Pittsburgh as an example. Pre-Uber, you could try to call for a cab to the airport. Maybe they would come in 45 minutes, maybe an hour and a half, maybe never. Even scheduling ahead didn’t help. Now you can get a ride in 5-10 minutes any time.
Nobody is shutting it down, this is just EU/Italy self-sabotaging :) the rest of the world will carry on at incredible pace they won't ever be able to match - or catch up.
I agree about committing longer. It took me a long time of switching back n forth with vscode and vim to fully convert over.

Funnily enough a pre-print paper was published just two days ago on this very subject, using a twin study, in Norway!

TLDR:

> We show that class attainment is strongly influenced by genetics. Shared environmental factors play a modest role. Our study suggests that sociological theories explaining class outcomes in terms of social origins have little explanatory power, and should be reformulated to consider genetics.

how's that working out?

asking for a friend who thinks that for-profit healthcare was a step in the wrong direction.
> However, coercing others to accept the risks or lose their job - that I find highly unethical.

Your employer isn't obligated to pay your higher healthcare costs because you were duped by antivax conspiracy theorists. In fact, your employer can use the fact that you were swayed by those blogs as a signal that your decision-making ability is poor.
I don't think that's true for crypto companies with actual customers (like coinbase) but rather the ones that are surviving on hype/investment alone, which all crash sooner or later, and aren't really companies. Just fluff.
For a year or two now, nim has been what I've enjoyed programming in the most. Thanks to everyone involved. The new improvements are much welcome.
Agreed, I think based on the numbers the alternative hypothesis fails. I also see how your point regarding market share is germane to the alt hypo.

The one way the alt hypo might succeed is if competitors' costs increased dramatically and overall output did not decrease. Let's say they had to pay for irregular flock refreshing and intensive facility maintenance. Maybe this disrupted throughput but not overall output. I kind of want to dig into other egg producers financials now, but I have to avoid the rabbit hole I got caught in yesterday.
I think it’s because of (c) I.e., everything worth reporting has been reported, the ball is in the justice department’s court to decide what to do about both Biden and Trump. Merrick Garland is a methodical guy so it’s wait-n-watch wrt to the classified docs story.

I do love PostgreSQL, and I often reach for this approach when working with hierarchical data, but a word of warning: Recursive queries will not scale to handle _very_ large edge tables. The recursive query will always consider _all_ edges, even when the outer query seeks only a single node's relationships. The solution is to build and index denormalized n-th order relationship tables.

Others have already pointed out the issues of cycles.

Sort of off topic - but Django was actually created by the author of this post! But in Lawrence, KS to run a small little newspaper's site (Lawrence Journal-World). WaPo then adopted it, which was obviously a huge boon to the growth of the framework.
This is wrong, computers can operate at billions of operations per second. You can wave hands and say the words “thermodynamics” but it doesn’t actually mean anything.

The claim that computers just can’t do X because “physics” looks weaker every day. Intelligence isn’t magic, hardware today seems more than capable. I think Carmack is probably right, it’s not a hardware constraint at this point - it’s a software intuitive leap.
Right. But the point is that if I have to have special knowledge or do tricky things with Python just to get end-user software to work right, that's a problem. You should just be able to install the software and have it work right. End-users who are not so technically oriented would never even know to look for those instructions, let alone be comfortable following them.

Python is the only language I've encountered that causes this sort of trouble for ordinary end-users. As a dev, I find this frustrating because the python scripts in question are clearly only "glue" in the first place. That's a lot of burden to put on the end user for just glue.

As for my issue, I did make it work in the end. I'm 90% sure I didn't do it in the right way and it will cause me problems at some point in the future, but that will be a problem for future me.

I don't know about Ford, since you mention them.
"First of all, batteries are the constraint here," Ford CEO Jim Farley told Yahoo Finance. "Both lithium and nickel are really the key constraining commodities. We normally get those from all over the world — South America, Africa, Indonesia. We want to localize that in North America, not just the mining but the processing of the materials."
Seems to me he's saying pretty much the same thing as Tavares. It's kinda strange, considering they're competitors.
Hello! We are still planning on Linux support but, to be honest, have had our hands full with supporting macOS and Windows. There are a surprising number of things to do and edge cases (multiple displays, spaces, full screen behavior, non-invasive event injection, etc). There are no specific technical issues holding us back really.

We are currently working on a headless client that will also work on Linux. We do not have exact dates for a release yet but it (and a full client) is on our roadmap. IT WILL happen. Fingers crossed.
The funny thing is that Hitman 2 uses an almost identical menu where the controller input does work. It's also marked as verified on Deck.

In practice, I don't think any side cares. Hitman 2 (also the remake) and later includes the option to play Hitman 1 through DLC so for new players the experience will be better sticking to the second version. That's why I doubt it's going to get fixed soon. The only people affected are the people running Steam as a console without a mouse attached, and that's a small minority of PC gamers.
Of course, everyone is always learning, you can't remain static. But you could afford to become more and more of a specialist in Java and growing your job opportunities that you can apply to.

If you became more and more of a specialist in Perl on the other hand you would have had to completely relearn something new by now to find as many opportunities as you used to in the late 90s.
> children can not enter a library and get Adult books

Is that true? Can a 13 year old child in Italy not walk into their local town library and pick a novel off the shelf and start reading all sorts of violent and explicit narratives? Not to mention all the medical textbooks, and books containing images of artistic works depicting undressed humans.
VSCode has dozens of ChatGPT and GPT-4 plugins now, not just copilot/tabnine/kite.
For anyone interested in a more flexible list, there's always Protondb[0]. Works like the old WineHQ tests (right down to unplayable/bronze/silver/gold/platinum rankings) where users basically report their findings and what tweaks they had to do to get things working.

They also tell you when stuff like GloriousEggrolls fork of Proton (which has a few features not in the Proton upstream) is the solution to use.

Putting that aside for a second, it's a marvel how Steam basically managed to get people to use an immutable, almost entirely flatpak-based OS that works quite well. I have one and while Big Picture has a very sporadic meltdown (usually connectivity issues with Steam), desktop mode works almost perfectly.

I've never had a moment where the filesystem being root-locked was an issue for using it, which is quite the interesting experience coming from other Linux distributions where touching the root filesystem is at some point expected to change a config file or to enable a driver. To put it simply: "it just works".

That’s very depressing. It does make me wonder why the VP of engineering is thinking of firing new blood into the company. Senior people don’t stick around that long.

My question to you is, if your company is probably going to fire more people, but it’s impossible stop. So what advice would you have to CS grads now? Just quit. Go find a job as an electrician. This isn’t worth it?

> random webpages and stackoverflow.

Crucially, those have context around them. And as you navigate them more and more you develop an intuitive sense for what is trustworthy or not. Perhaps you even find a particularly good blog which you reference first every time you want to learn something from a particular language. Or in the case of Stack Overflow, your trust in an answer is enhanced by the discussion around it: the larger the conversation, the more confident you can be of its merits and limitations.

When you get all your information from the same source and have no idea what it referenced, you lose the all the other cues regarding the validity, veracity, or usefulness of the information.

"write a program that blinks an led on pin 13 in circuitpython", "write a rest api in Java using Spring" stuff like that. I wonder if people will start running to chatgpt for an algorithm instead of searching for a library for an implementation of said algorith.

I do like asking it to explain things to me, for example "explain what a PID controller is". It reminds of like a real-time wikipedia.
