Well, if you find it uninteresting, do not make it happen. I just showed you a bit of history of the expression, including the warning - do not assume that (especially globally) it is used your way. (Yes, if you are Tennessee it may be more frequently one way, in Singapore maybe the opposite...) You write «Everyone associates it with the only thing that can kill a werewolf» - and I am telling you that in fact that covers the slice of the population that also holds that silver bullets are in fact completely ineffective, in spite of the story, although it has consideration among people who mentally live in the world where werewolves roam.

It is clear what the user did: in fact, posts ago, I noticed that it is «ironic». The poster said "it is a silver bullet", and that is peculiar because some would reply to that "do not forget your magic cloak to approach more confidently", or similar.

There are indigenous tribes who assign ownership of stories and songs to particular people/families. Retelling them without ownership or permission warrants punishment.

I understand your point, but I really intensely dislike the term "business logic" when used as some sort of universal. A bunch of us write code that nothing to do with any "business logic", even if there is some other sort of set of workflow rules & design that need to apply.

I write a DAW, and we face two major fundamental problems:

1. most DAW users don't use many features, but they do tend to use different sets of features. So if you want to be useful to lots of users, you need a LOT of features.

2. the corollary of (1) is that there are, unlike in "business logic" applications, oodles of workflows in use, and the application needs to support as many of them as possible without friction or bugs.

Android Automotive sounds it is it's own infotainment. I guess I'm more interested in getting the data out to users, to consume & use in different creative ways.

I thought webinos was so cool because it was a really interesting platform for exposing capabilites to users, who could then give different apps & services access. It was both a competent IoT platform, & one that effectively through encryption basically sent all data over VPN to the user, who then figured out what to do with it.
I don't game much these days, but my understanding from those who do is that multiplayer gaming could not exist without aggressive anti-cheat measures. Are you aware of less intrusive ways to keep the majority of players honest?

In a simulation nobody is calculating n x m^k. They’re calculating n X m in k loops spread over k ticks. And given that fact, if you round or truncate at the end of each cycle, as one often does with game points (eg, fire resistance in D&D), then there is no problem.

For money systems, we also tend to round on every step to the nearest penny.

AI Is a False Prophet
This is purely a positioning thing. Customers will understand "AI company" to mean "a business that uses AI to solve my problem," and nothing more. The insider perspective matters extremely little (, unfortunately.)

It's like McDonalds positions themselves as a food company while their majority revenue comes from real estate[1]. It doesn't matter to the consumer that their business internals involve the renting of property to their franchisees. What people see are the broken ice cream machines and the burgers.

A two-minute UI that makes a call to OpenAI is just as sellable of a product as someone offering social media templates written by a Llama instance running on their own servers. And during the gold rush, that's all that matters. H sure hope we'll see more nuanced descriptions later down the road: AI-powered, AI-integrating, and AI-adjacent :)

I'm sure most of us have worked for shit companies that have taken advantage of us. In those cases, I think your points can be helpful.

But I'd also suggest that it's possible to find companies that align with your values, both around work/life balance and around the way the work gets done. That's certainly a skill that I've had to work to develop. And I've had some major misses along the way. But it's probably also the most important skill I've developed.

Owning your company's problems, at least a subset of them, is that fastest (only?) way to move up in a company. If you want to climb the ladder at all, you'll have to own some problems. The key is to do that for a company that recognizes and rewards that ownership. And as soon as they don't, then you become the merc and find a new thing.

It is more than obvious if you look at the broad picture: computers on the 80s were sold to a few million people, most of them with, at least, high school degree and math inclinations (a.k.a. "nerds"). Smartphones, o.t.o.h. are sold to billions of people.

The scale is just immense and is a completely different audience.

I’m fairly certain every state issues (non-DL) state ID at any age people want to apply for it (some, but not all, states require parental approval), but people rarely need them except as adults are maybe late teens (a working teen non-driver may need one.)

ISTR that like DLs, state IDs are a net revenue source, so bills that require more people to get them in practice are, in net effect, tax bills (and because they are closer to capitations than even a flat tax, are regressive tax bills.)

I hear you.

A derivative is a derivative of a function (or a function like object, say a functional). The phrase "the derivative of a matrix" keeps it unclear whether "the matrix" is the function, or whether "the matrix" is a variable, an element in the domain of the function.

Bereft of that information, the phrase is as meaningful as "the derivative of 4.2"
One of the strengths of twitter is that you’re able search things you are not subscribed to. It has the ability to act as a Google for current events. If aliens were to arrive by tomorrow and you wanted a quick means to know if anyone else was seeing this shit , twitter would have (probably still is) the best means of finding out so in real time. Similarly this can be the same in the event of a disaster. The event earthquake in Turkey is a good example of this.

Pardon my naivety. The only reason individuals would willingly participate at a large scale, would be for an open source AI project.

If it's a good idea for a Mario game, it's probably a good idea for a game that does not use the Mario IP.

I suddenly realized, when working on my mobile platform game, that adult me was developing the Mario game 12-year-old me always wanted to make. It just didn't have Mario in it or use the mechanics like specific power-ups unique to that series. But the platforming itself and, it turns out, things like how level layouts are stored, were pretty similar to Mario.

Kid me would be stoked for that bit of my future.

These are low-code tools that are specific to a particular domain. And I think low-code tools can add a lot of value here (I work on a low-code, boxes and arrows, tool for data transformation).

> > $25/gallon once it hits mass production.

> Which one? I’m guessing you just did research on this and just learned they existed? One of them costs $80/liter now, but said they can get it down to $6/liter through scaling.

You do realize there's only a 20% difference between $6/l and $25/g? IOW, they're basically the same price.

> Why? propane is shipped in, you don’t believe getting compressed gas in an emergency is possible?

Propane is shipped as a liquid with a high volumetric energy density. Hydrogen is shipped as a gas with a very low volumetric energy density. You'd need a lot of tanks of hydrogen to replace a single tank of propane.

Hydrogen needs to be regularly recompressed, requiring a lot of electricity. It's then further compressed before fueling a car, meaning that the hydrogen fuelling stations in California can only fuel 3 cars per hour.

Hydrogen leaks like crazy. NASA delayed the Artemis I mission by 3 months due to hydrogen leaks. If NASA can't do it...

> Every time you charge it, you lose a little range. This isn’t true with a liquid fueled vehicle in that the fuel tank gets a little smaller after every refuel.

The fuel efficiency of a gas car gets worse over time, so the same effect happens to them too.

I've been in a similar situation. My advice is to make sure you budget in recovery time. I've had burnout that took 2 weeks to recover from, and I've have burnout that took 2 months to recover from.

That isn't realistic. We already gave pure 'Linux-based' mobile devices and desktops a chance years ago and unfortunately, they haven't taken off commercially.

> You make it sound like it's some crazy high cost for Apple to do this, yet this small open source project seems to be able to do it and for them it would be much more difficult.

Hacks are in no way shape or form equivalent to official support. Both in functionality (this thread is full of people talking about small issues popping up more and more frequently, especially in the latest OS versions which actually have specific requirements like AVX2) and in terms of actual support. The level of work required from a community project is magnitudes smaller than from the company.

> It's a computer I paid over £3,000 for, that got cut off 7 years after release for no valid reason as a customer.

> Yes I understand what you are saying, but there is no need for it, Operating systems didn't require suddenly more powerful computers, years ago it made sense because the machine just couldn't handle it, but today my machine handles everything just fine and is higher spec than machines Apple has determined can run it.

You say you understand, but I already said it has nothing to do with power and explained why. Bringing it and the cost of the machine up again isn’t going to change this. At its core, it’s a cost benefit analysis. Each system supported adds tests, customer support, etc. Direct, actual costs to the company. At a certain point, the number of users using a specific system does not justify those costs. Apple looked at that analysis and decided that the costs are no longer justified. 8 years later seems like an entirely reasonable amount of time for that.

> I'm not well versed enough to say it stops existing

That's a small detail, but no, it's not that the particle "stops existing". It's that we can't describe the momentum and position of something with indefinite detail with mathematics that is still coherent. The data type we have for describing things can not go there (on the QM language, of course).

And the surprising thing is that QM predicts our experiments with as much detail as we can experiment with. So, we have this language that can't describe something with known position and speed, and as far as anybody is concerned, it's perfectly correct.
> Then the GCD operation could be done in hardware and everything would be fast (at least as fast as floats).

Could it? Is there a fast way to do GCD in hardware?

Googling gave me https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_GCD_algorithm, which needs O(log₂(max(u, v))) operations to compute gcd(u,v), but I wouldn’t know whether that’s the best we can do in hardware, or whether that’s ‘as fast as floats’.

Also, I don’t see how your format describes a rational type. Rationals store numbers as p/q for integer p and q, not with a decimal point.
