No. What is the point? Mind maps are for clarifying your thinking and exploring ideas. They are an incredibly poor method of communicating ideas to others. I've never had someone present a mind map to me where I haven't then had to ask them to explain what is going on in prose.

I remember clearly the first time I ever heard the term “UX”. It was condescending explained by some guy from Google to a quite technical audience of telcos, many years ago. For reasons I couldn’t explain, it pissed me off.

Later, they produced Material Design.

The prosecution rests, your honour.
No offense, but that’s not a very original concept.

Really sorry to hear that.

When I worked for Daimler, I was surprised to learn that all of their cars ship with something called "PRE-SAFE Sound" which, when it detects that you might be in a crash (i.e. at the point when the seatbelts are pre-tensioned), it plays a loud-ish burst of white noise through all the speakers, triggering your ears' automatic response which disconnects your ear drums. This means that when the actual (very loud!) crash happens, your hearing is saved. They developed this in the 90s when, after the advent of airbags, they saw that most injuries from moderate car crashes were hearing related. (Here's a video with some cool detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTmLYY-Z2rc)

I always thought it was a huge shame that 1) this technology isn't required/mandated for all cars and 2) Mercedes doesn't advertise this more

> I'd like to hear any strategy one has to deal with that. I have taken up Figma and Sketch so I can meet them "where they are" but still, plenty of disagreements can happen.

One option would be to use a premade design system or a component library/framework that gives you a consistent look and feel, most of those design decisions having a good enough baseline. Then just add a color theme and some branding on top of it and call it a day. It will also increase your development velocity and save you from some pixel pushing.

For an example of this, consider PrimeFaces: https://www.primefaces.org/

They have working components that are good enough (and support multiple themes, if need be), their own icon solution and also a CSS utility library, including stuff like layouts. For most projects it'll be enough to create something that works and looks okay.
Exactly. Even here in backwards Bulgaria we had large (as in thousands of people) electronic one-night music events where trans/cross/etc people would hang on ropes, perform stuff and generally have a good time along with everyone else.

Some of the best small time events 20 years ago were held in a popular gay. No one cared. No one.

Now it's 2023 and extremists on both ends are accusing you of either showing too much respect to the "weirdos", or not using the most up to date and precise language to describe things that are murky to begin with.
How is "I don't want to be shot during a programming convention" a frivolous reason?
The limitations are very practical. High dimensionality vectors have a huge size cost and this limits scalability. This blows up pretty quickly when you index millions of documents. Also query cost explodes quickly to become impractical in terms of resource usage. The Lucene vector field support has some limitations here. Opensearch uses native libraries to work around that. Elasticsearch only supports whatever Lucene supports. For now. I'd say that will probably evolve over time. It's a relatively new feature for both.

Dedicated products have similar limitations of course. But they have the advantage that they can be optimized for that use case and use some native trickery (GPUs, etc.) to mitigate some of the effects. So, there's a bit of a tradeoff there in what you need and can afford. But ultimately, handling millions/billions of huge vectors has a cost.

> But the salespeople earned their keep, because every large photocopier sold also had a service contract that charged a fee for every copy made.

And without the service contracts, schools are fucked when the printer breaks down. Like, here in Germany, a single copier can run through entire crates worth of paper in a day.

It's absolutely ridiculous how fossilized our education system has become. We should be using laptops and tablets loaded with e-books and digital worksheets. No one cares about handwriting anything outside of school any more.
It makes me uneasy to think I could have dementia and have forgotten all about these new developments, and interact with these without understanding they are AI.
Kind of, but not quite. There is also:

- compiling to a single binary (I guess jpackage fixes this)

- saner / less elaborate / more ergonomic interfaces to implement and use e.g. compare `io.Reader` (https://go.dev/tour/methods/21) to the Java equivalent

This is what I was wondering - to my understanding the main reason banks need to be regulated is to stop them over-lending.
Named intermediates for what? This function munges a single hash value, h, and then folds its bits 24 to 31, g, into bits 4 to 7. It implements a mathematical formula, basically, and given it’s a hash, there isn’t much meaning to the contents of any pair of parens in that formula. Perhaps *name++, but any C programmer just thinks “next character of name” when they see that, don’t they?

(I’ve seen people code with a lot of intermediates with two- and three-word names, and I just don’t see why, in general. But here especially—hashes are not exactly oases of meaning.)

The 'unsigned long' point is correct in a cross-platform context, of course. If the code is from the SunOS linker, then its authors defined the ABI, so could guarantee 'long' was 32 bits. It’s the Glibc port that was careless.

(Although if I heard the phrase “any standard-conforming implementation” in this context, I’d be tempted to point out that an implementation doesn’t have to provide uint32_t at all, though a POSIX 2008 one does, and may have 33-bit ints, automatically promoting the uint32_t to signed int and immediately hitting UB on overflow. Either use C23 _BitInt(32), not subject to promotions for precisely this reason, or add +0U as needed to force the hypothetical signed int to unsigned.)
> You could probably improve the above by using an interface rather than a bool to reduce the memory impact. If you need a function that preserves the order that might be a better implementation.

Maps don't preserve order. The benchmark also is using 10 element slices. That is likely too small to get performance improvements via map lookup and I think the benchmark would still favor unsorted slices over maps.

I'm afk but I suggest using map[uint64]struct{} to reduce memory usage over map[uint64]bool and I recommend benchmarking different sized source slices. 10 items is nothing. Bump that up a few orders of magnitude. There is no way 10 element slices are what they are seeing in production that is causing memory pressure. Still, if the problem is memory, an in-place sort is better that a full copy as a map. And as the author suggests, cpu caching should help with the slice operations.
What are you basing this sentiment on?
The MQTT Broker plays a crucial role in facilitating messaging between IoT devices, making it a key component in IoT applications.While the market offers a variety of MQTT brokers, from private deployment options to cloud-based services that enable MQTT connectivity for us, it also makes it more difficult to decide because of the increased complexity.
Hence, we listed the following 7 factors that are worth considering when you want to find an ideal MQTT Broker for your IoT projects.
>When you need a full Linux system Raspberry Pi is great.

Then you're much better off getting one of the endlessly available low-power X86 small form factor platforms either new or off the second hand market, available with Intel or AMD chips.

And unlike the Broadcom based R-PI, you'll have a much better time as you won't get locked into any specific chip vendor so you can easily migrate to whatever chip offers you the best price or performance or energy efficiency at the time of purchase.

The standardization of the X86 platforms is unbeatable by the current crop of ARM SBCs with their proprietary firmware blobs and weird boot methods.

Locking yourself into a very specific chip platform of a single manufacturer, just for running linux and a web server, is a huge mistake and we're now seeing the consequences of not having a competitor/dual source.

To be honest it's pretty horrible. Why can't I just post about what interests me right now?
Twitter, is the "Tesla drama" all over again but now it's 'Twitter drama". We have and will hear how difficult and painful it is to run Twitter. We'll hear how all the sacrifice he is making is to make the world better. Mean while a few years from now Twitter will be a cash cow for him.

He is getting billions of dollars of advertising by stirring controversy for Twitter. He doesn't need to spend any more ad money for it. Which is a big advantage.

I still say that he got a huge get when he bought it. He could have gotten it for less but that does not mean he won't turn it into a money maker. If he gets twitter on a profitable trend then it's only a matter of time before he can go public and get rid of all the debt. Without having to pay for advertising he has a big advantage. Bottom line he knows how to make a buck. Good for him.

This is a core difference between salaried/exempt and hourly workers. You're paid a fixed salary to perform work for your employer, whether there's 80 hours or 2h of work in any given week, you get paid the same.

So if you're a salaried worker delivering results, meeting your obligations and overall expectations of your employer, then how could you possibly construe it as fraud?

Taking away the upsides, but not the downsides of salaried work sounds, for the lack of a better word, rigged.
Yeah the pros of having access to a common architecture cannot be understated. You'd think ARM would be widely supported by now given that nearly every phone runs it, but every time one tries to do something vaguely nonstandard you run into walls that simply aren't there on x64 (especially with an AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPU and common net card instead of <insert SoC manufacturer's barely supported custom homebrew card>). There's a reason one cannot simply update Android phones to the latest OS without explicit vendor support and the reason why is not pretty.

Goes doubly so for the Pi specifically, since they stayed on 32 bit armhf OSes for the longest time which have even less package support and just straight up cannot run a wide range of software. And the new arm64 builds are laughably bad, having an almost 10-50% performance overhead on certain processes. And the Pi 4 is already painfully slow even compared to cheap android phones.

It is in most aspects an absolutely terrible way to get started with computers.
Equation editor and outlines with 'move family' type functionality as well. Those are not exclusive features but interesting for a terminal application.
On a somewhat related note: I'm having a lot of trouble buying used books (I have a knack for out of print non-fiction) from outside the EU. Many independent bookstores don't have the means to comply with the stringent IOSS rules and many of the books I bought (via biblio.com) were held up at customs, who then slap on extra VAT and a processing fee. When I don't pay the fee (effectively doubling the price of the book), the books typically get lost...

Does anyone know whether bookshop.org or any of the other networks ship to the EU without customs issues?
RIP third party clients.
Apple famously did many years of intense user testing to develop their HIG (and maybe still do?). I’m pretty sure xerox did too, and all the other UI researchers many years ago. Maybe even Microsoft did :)

In any case, it contradicts your claim, since all this user research was way, way before UX was a thing.

Honestly I just got the feeling that the phrase UI had become stale and UX was just seen as a way for a new generation to put their mark on the world.

Nothing wrong with that, of course.
I'm glad you chimed in with this. This is the point: capitalism knows self-interest exists, and creates a system to harness it. Communism and similar pretend greed doesn't exist, and creates overly powerful central bodies to make everything fair.

Add another tally mark to "bureaucracies can only kill, never create".

Try saying "accept what we cannot avoid" to my skewed feet, OHRP. I WISH I had the finances to fix them, but because of people like you, any advancements on cheap treatments for this issue will be met with hundreds of miles of red tape just to form a simple test.

This quote sums up how I feel about the OHRP, and all bureaucracies similar to it:

> A survey of how researchers feel about IRBs did include one person who said “I hope all those at OHRP [the bureaucracy in charge of IRBs] and the ethicists die of diseases that we could have made significant progress on if we had [the research materials IRBs are banning us from using]”.
"last writer wins" does not preserve state from losing (earlier) writers/writes

For instance, a concrete example, use the ai to suggest different intermediate nodes to link two existing nodes.

Pendantic, but: ß is not a ligature of s and z, but of the long s (ſ) and the tailed s (ʒ)[0], hence why when capitalized it is replaced with the double S. (Although there has been a more contemporary innovation of a "capital ß", not without controversy.)

My apologies. It was an honest question but I can see how it might be taken as something more than that. A link to wiki was not what I asked for.

Since we're giving each other life advices, I suggest one spoon of not jumping to conclusions. You're not exactly showing much respect for me here.
I agree. But the way to get a comprehensive solution is to understand the technology changes that have changed our world profoundly, and why current law is no longer sufficient.

To wit, humans have invented invisibility, and now we must deal with a wide range of surprising repurcussions of this technology.

Now, we don't have real invisibility, but we do have functional invisibility. Every chip, and and every piece of software, is invisible to the user. This is entirely novel and could not have been anticipated by the framers - who very much cared about innovation and invention, given that the patent system is described in the Constitution. But the invention of invisibility changes the calculus of product creation and distribution profoundly, to the point that it may require an Amendment to address fully. I suggest something along the lines of "If you sell an Invisibly Small Good, then you Must provide to the buyer a Microscope also".)
The problem I found with this (and many other recommendation engines) is that I've read all of the suggestions.

I am French and I think this guy reads too much in what Macron said.

IMO Macron does not care for anything, thousands of times he changes of advice just days after making strong statements. He repeatedly contradicted his prime ministers. He deliberately bankrupted EDF then claimed it was all the fault of its CEO. He insulted many people outside and inside France.

He dismantled the French diplomatic administration. Yet he is at war with current Germany politics, with past UK government, with Italy, with Marocco, with Algeria, with Turkey, etc...

He dislikes unions such as CFDT which are its natural supporter. He fired Army generals because they told the truth about the sad state of French Army, then said France will invest 440B but then ask ministers to reduce their budget.

Etc...
It doesn't really make sense to me to assume that people _don't_ know this already.

I mean, in a vox pop interview sense the average bloke on the street might not.

But I'd just figure - ok, the fuel to drive to Brighton and back is about £15 (and there's a ton of fuel duty on that), a steak is about £5-15 depending on quality, they're probably both about the same order of magnitude on carbon, and splitting hairs further than that doesn't make sense.

If I knew that a steak had 5x the emissions of the drive or vice versa, what would I do differently?

If the idea is that people should sit down and think "do I really need to go to Brighton" or "do I really need to eat that steak", then that's not about a numerical comparison, it's about adopting a lifestyle of ascetism.

edit: looked it up, 1kg of beef is about 50-100kg co2 equiv so a 250g steak is about 12.5-25kg, most cars get about 100g/km so a Brighton round trip is approx 15kg equiv.

With all of the uncertainty involved (probably should include production and maintenance on the car) they're about the same, which is intuitively reasonable.
It is the same in Italian (semaforo).
That’s not true, most beef comes from beef cows, which are slaughtered around 2 years. Milk cows are much different breeds and the females are kept around for up to 10 years. They might be eaten after that, but they don’t produce nice steaks.

You can integrate 30% or smaller wireless keyboard (with Elite-C) in your trousers IMHO. This would address "good" part (think something like this https://www.tzcl.me/blog/rae-dux but without PCB and wired using wires). At least I use adux keyboard of similar size daily. Or you can go even smaller with something like this https://artsey.io/ but I am not sure if this could be considered good. Next part would be concealing it - kailh low profile are too high IMHO for pants. There are switches that are even lower but most probably this might not work. I guess captive touch sensors might be solution but I am not sure if they would work well as keyboard. I guess some art would help concealing as well.

Still I don't feel this would be really comfortable to type on.
And also in Italy (semaforo) and I think in Romania (semafor)
> Although I wish people would care about these things, the truth is that it is the minority who do.

Actually, most layman do care about it, but short-term KPI-driven management (in the private and public sector alike) don't, because as you say they don't have the proper incentives.
Don’t forget a buckling spring keyboard for that ultimate bare metal experience.
Most of the Python developers I followed are on Mastodon. "Techies" has lots of sub-cultures, so it could be C# or React developers are stuck on Twitter, for example, so if you are in those groups it might seem nobody has left.

The actual triangle is much better when you don’t add in the common admonishment/instruction “pick two”. I have no idea why that’s added in.

The much better instruction is “pick a point on the triangle”. If you want it as good as possible, it’s neither cheap nor fast. You can have kinda good and kinda cheap, but it won’t be fast at all. And so on.
I almost quit my day job in 2020 building a product based on Raspberry Pi Compute module 4, it has great form factor. But I didn’t! And it was another proof, that playing safe is not the worst way to do things.

What’s alternative!? As an electrical engineer I designed a Spartan 7 FPGA based board with same form factor as compute module 4 for replacement in my system. Nowadays Spartan 7 chips are available again at Mouser and Digikey.

I ready don’t need a Raspberry Pi with A.I. chip, because I can’t buy even a regular one.
Many companies have redesigned their hardware to use the chips that are available.

This sort of range is absolutely incredible; and, if they are pushing the electric motor as the primary motor, maybe the performance of the car, too, will be very good, rather than the terrible 0-60 times of a Prius.
That only works if other endpoint tries to act as usb host. While if it mimics usb device (classic BadUSB), then AFAIK any phone would accept without any questions.
Go only does cross-compilation when using the standard library and pure Go libraries, hardly any different.

Plus the target OS needs to exist on the toolchain anyway.
We used ExcelsiorJET to create (pre-compiled) executables for Java (Swing) applications back in 2009 if memory serves me right.
