"It's Microsoft" is to me a very naïve explanation.

It's how a 9-to-5 employee thinks about capital "oh, they're rich, they can spend on anything and not care". That's not how it works.

You don't build a large profitable company if you spend like the spoiled, drunk, drugged out offspring of a billionaire, who has a 10 million dollar weekly allowance, to spend on cars, women, jets and substances.

Every decision has to be rational, meaning you are at least break even, ideally above break even. If not financially, at least tactically, strategically, politically, any way at all. Any way at all.

They weren't breaking even here, and had no reason to invest in a relationship with a man child driving his $44B investment into the ground, while embarrassing himself every single day.

No serious business needs or wants relationship with Twitter anymore. If given a reason to look into it, a tipping point, a drop-that-spills-the-glass reason to exit, they'd exit. And Elon keeps providing excellent, very convincing ones.

Such as "you suddenly owe us MILLIONS to use our API, in order to provide a free service to your customers, which mostly works out to our benefit, so your customers can run ads with us." If you're a Microsoft manager, you spend an hour at most thinking and consulting about it, and of course you finally say "lol, no" and quit.

I was in a similar boat about 5 years ago: I couldn’t touch type, using some bastardized version of typing that saw me using two fingers on my right hand and three on my left. I was pretty fast (usually scoring ~100WPM), but always wanted to learn to do it for real.

I ended up buying an ErgoDox EZ, set it up with the Dvorak keyboard layout. The first six months SUCKED. I was slow, and there were times I would have to switch back to QWERTY to handle urgent issues. But 5 years on, I’m a very fast typer again and I love the Dvorak layout.

I’ve since picked up some other keyboards (including the Planck EZ) which are sometimes harder to get into, but I wouldn’t change learning to type the way I did.

It can be done. It does suck in the beginning. You’ll get it with practice.

PS I do recommend switching your phone layout to Colemak, and using things like TypingClub or KeyBR to practice. Best of luck!

I just checked my last.fm stats and for my top artist I have around 7400 listens over a few years time. The artist has 110 songs listed on last.fm so on average 67 listens per track. The most listened track is at over 200 times, but that is mainly due to the shuffle algortihm.

The actual numbers are quite a bit higher since not all of the listens have been tracked.

I still listen to this artist daily.

This is easy if all you use is EC2, as K8s is effectively just a layer over EC2. Once you start using other AWS features you're locked in anyway, and tbh, what's the point of using AWS if all you're using is EC2?

Choosing to be vendor agnostic is purposely choosing to need to implement every single part of a stack yourself, rather than the (usually considerably better) AWS offerings, just in case you may want to switch away in the future. It's a massive waste of money and time for nearly every business.

Unless you're in the business of providing an infrastructural-level service (like heroku), you'll ship faster and cheaper by using a single cloud and going all in.
That sounds like an amazing teacher. In elementary school I remember being extremely frustrated that art classes weren’t about actually learning to draw/paint, just doing silly things out of papier mâché. I went down the science/engineering route, and it’s only as an adult that I finally took the leap and signed up for proper drawing classes.

It’s been mind expanding to say the least - I thought I spent my whole life seeing, but I realized I saw nothing until I took my first sketching/figure drawing class. Drawing is seeing.
Yes, it absolutely has to taper, with an exponential curve, to keep stress constant over the length of the cable. The taper ratio (in terms of cross-sectional area) for the best currently available engineering materials for an Earth space elevator would be in the tens to hundreds of millions, but a carbon nanotube cable might only require a taper ratio of around ten. (A steel cable would need a taper ratio on the order of 10^33.)

Instead of measuring only distance from the curve itself for the error metric, how about adding in deviation of the derivatives of the curve and its approximation?
I wonder to what extent that is true, now LLMs can search the web and read the results?
Not if the cable has constant cross-sectional area, but actual designs call for a cable with an exponential taper, and that would make a carbon nanotube cable feasible. With currently available engineering materials the taper ratio would be too large (~10^8 for Kevlar, ~10^33 for steel…)

Went back to do some more tests now, and funny enough I can actually get it to make decent stuff after realizing that it just completely sucks at below 512px (I was initially running it at 128x256 to speed up generation). I guess I should stop listening to advice from morons on reddit who said that lower res + upscaling works fine. Lol.

Not sure why there's even an option to go below 512.
> But what RISC-V would provide is a "standard" ISA. You can avoid having a manufacturer/vendor lock-in. Anyone can manufacture a RV64EMAFDZicsr.

Anyone can manufacture a chip based around one of Arm's CPU core designs if they pay a licensing fee to Arm, and many different manufacturers do. If you want to, you can even make your own CPU design supporting an Arm ISA, again if you pay a licensing fee.

Likewise, you could license a RISC-V CPU design from some company… for a smaller licensing fee, but you will have RISC-V's worse software compatibility, and probably worse overall performance, efficiency, die area and quality.

The ISA is a tiny piece of the puzzle and not the most important one. RISC-V is cool because Arm won't sue you for making a hobby project that implements it in hardware, but it doesn't solve problems other than “Arm's license fees are too high”.
And I thought the cable had to be made of spider silk hadn’t?
Because Microsoft almost have a monopoly on the OS market. Pretty much the only alternative for users who aren't tech savvy enough to comfortably use Linux is to buy a Mac, which will price out a lot of people. Even if you are able to use Linux (or can afford a Mac), the popularity of Windows means that you will eventually run into a piece of software you need that isn't available for your OS and won't run in Wine, forcing you to use Windows by some other means.

That is precisely the issue at hand.

But that's essentially what products are. It's not like chinese companies take a product and clone it, they take the idea of how to make a product look like and work and implement it. Same applies to code, art, books. OpenAI takes those products, the results of ideas, modify them and resell them without attribution or without having paid a license. That's simply theft.

Unfortunately the benchmarks results haven’t been updated in 6 years. In theory the project code itself does support mimalloc but it’s not in any published results so unclear how it fares. And the tcmalloc variant it compares itself against is the gperftools fork from a dump many many years ago instead of what’s actually used that Google only released again recently (keeping the same tcmalloc name but putting it in a standalone repo)
I miss makefiles. I had a side-project that included a program that converted a text file into a C# file and I wanted that integrated into the build process so when I hit F5, the system would - if needed - invoke the code-gen program and then recompile the .cs file that got generated. Alas, I couldn't find a good way to do it so I ended up adding pre-build and post-build actions. They sorta work but I have to manually invoke builds occasionally.

I asked on stack-overflow if there was a way to do this. https://stackoverflow.com/q/73816110/3568

As a US based developer, would I have the option to ban people in the EU from using my software? It's the only way I would be able to keep distributing.

Edit: I think I misunderstood. This seems to only apply to OSS non profits.

Edit 2: I am not only developing my own software, I am doing it under my LLC, packaging and distributing on itch.io, and in one case charging a low amount. So this likely would apply to me.
Since I've made a whopping $200 in donations and sales total over the course of several months, that will be the end of my side business / passive income.

And since I'm in the US this feels unfair. I really shouldn't be bound by EU laws. I'd rather just ban the EU from my software if it comes down to that.

edit 3:

Custom File Properties aren't new in Vista - they date back to the Windows 95 Shell API. The only thing Vista added was the ability to filter and group directly from the list-view column headers (in Windows XP you could group-by, but with limited options, and no in-place filtering).
I am writing from a european perspective as we share common problems caused by countries copying our products and ideas. Now it would appear that the US wants to do the same but for intellectual work. That's not nice to put it mildly. I think licensing data, expensive as it may be, would eventually lead to higher quality ai and healthier growth. At the moment this whole campaign of promoting openai's products, and those of similar companies, appears to be focused on: 1) i'll take your products (books, art, software, music) 2) resell them 3) put you out of a job.

That's precisely what malicious actors such as China have done. Not only are we swamped with lower quality products, but as you wrote, we are also facing significant social and economic issues. This time at an unprecedented scale.

They call it "hustling" and "growth hacking", and I suppose there might be good ROI on this when you're just starting up and trying to do some "organic advertising" in a niche community/subreddit. Those couple extra upvotes may be the difference between drowning unnoticed vs. staying on the front page long enough to gather initial interest, and spark a discussion that keeps it up for a day or more.

I still believe it's unethical behavior, though.
> Believe it or not, but websites could already implement it based on what the user-agent knows about the connection already. `navigator.connection` (returns NetworkInformation - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NetworkInfo...) supposedly holds what the user-agent thinks the connection-type is. Although not implemented in Safari nor Firefox.

This is absolutely the wrong way around. I don't care much for lazy loading but if you must add it then use the loading="lazy" hint and let the browser decide based on that. Don't try to be smart, e.g. navigator.connection won't tell you that I'm about to get on a plane where I won't have internet at all.
