If I translate the main page from Polish, it has text that resembles what you'd expect from scams: "Quidco - collect your £10", "Wise - transfer £500 for free", etc. There's even a bit of preface text that seems to acknowledge some content sounds a bit a like a scam: "I've never been too sure about sites that offer so-called Cashback"

I’ll just throw Magnet in the ring for a tiling solution.

I have keyboard shortcuts well in muscle memory now for left/right third/half/two-thirds, and all four corners at a quarter of screen, and full screen. I find that meets 90% of my needs.

Left/right two-thirds is my go-to when coding on 14”. VSCode on the left, Safari on the right. Both big enough to work well, but both leave enough of the other visible to be useful.

Nice little app, costs some reasonable amount of money as a one-off purchase.
Do you believe the previous rates were simultaneously too low for good credit and too high for bad credit with respect to the risk of defaulting? Do you believe the new rates are nothing more than trying to better model the risk? If not then please be precise. Being monotonic means little. Why is it “sensible”?
That is not what I want. There should be an explicit button to refresh the recommendations. What I hate is a recommendation page that displayed what I liked but made them disappear just because I temporarily navigated away.
There is no competition, so there’s no incentive for Apple to put any work into making the App Store quality better.

Review is awful, search is awful, rankings are gamed, and it’s full of spam and shovelware.

All the app stores are like this to varying degrees.
There was also a race to the bottom early on, and everyone expects all apps to be free or five bucks at most. This put a lot of developers off
I’m guessing it’s a play to build up a training and RLHF dataset for another model. A diverse dataset can be hard to put together without opening it up to the public like OpenAI did.

> I know there's supposed to be a bunch of clickbait garbage on YouTube but I just wouldn't know, because I literally never see it.

Just sort by view count for any common english word and filter out the music videos.

Well, even including music videos there appear to be several dozen or hundred accounts dedicated to reposting the exact same Indian music videos, film trailers, clips, etc...

Not even small variations of the same content, the exact same video.

Some of the accounts look like plausible media distributors/producers in India but quite a large fraction seem to be bots or individuals spamming.

I need to mention how terrible YouTube search has gotten.

Instead of giving you actual search results, it only gives a 2-3 relevant videos and then some random recommendations that are often completely unrelated to the query
As someone that maintains two vehicles located in the rust belt/salt belt, I concur.
Yeah, I really have no complaints. Of all “we feed you content” thingies online, YouTube has been the most adequate.

The only complaint I have is what human behaviour forces even the intelligent creators to do: have a title card with an excited looking person.
They seem to be throwing like 5-500 bucks at it. I'm almost never able to get to them by the time I see them but there are always some comments from people who were able to.
> Can someone who knows better than me please comment on the Linux server scheduling issues with a CPU like this.

The scheduler was more or less designed around symmetric multi processing. BIG/little asymmetric systems will still have obviously preferred cores; if you're optimizing for throughput, add one task to each fast core first, then to each slow core, then maybe move tasks around to fit policies, etc.

With the 7900X3D and the 7950X3D, it's trickier, because one chiplet has a lower clock speed but more cache. Tasks that fit into the smaller cache will do better on the less cache chiplet, and tasks that fit into the larger cache but not the smaller cache will do better on the larger cache chiplet, and tasks that don't fit into either task will probably do better on the faster chiplet, but it kind of depends. In order to make good decisions, the scheduler would need more information about the task's memory access patterns, and I don't think that's something schedulers tend to keep track of; but if this type of chip is common in the future, it will need to happen.

For Epyc, AMD's server processor line, I believe the plan for X3D is to add cache to all the chiplets, keeping them roughly symmetric; there's still the modern situation that some cores will boost higher than others, and moving tasks to different cores can be very expensive if the process has memory still resident in cache on the old core, and the new core doesn't share that cache, etc.
I don't get enjoying every second line being "if (r == -1) goto cleanup" and then a cleanup block freeing every pointer which is not null. True, you can define macros to automate that, but then you just end up with clunkier version of C++ destructors. The rest depends on what you are doing, no need for heavy OOP for simple tasks and on the other hand automatic memory management is great when reliability is more important than hardware access or real time performance. But at least no reason to avoid automated facilities that replace well known red tape.
I'm glad that the home page is semi-stable because I'll often click on a video and then go back and want to queue up another that looked interesting but if it were gone it might be hard to find again. (Yes there are strategies to work around this but I don't always use them).

They do have the "New to You" category on the home page now which you might find useful.
That's just the "pre-authorization" on your card. It gets released again when you end the charging session, minus the charging cost for the kWh you used. Same thing as gas stations where you use your card before using the fuel pump.

If you didn't end the charging session (e.g. by pressing a button or presenting the same card again), you may have given the next person a free charge?
> ... but utility scale solar probably means repurposing farmland...

Great. Let's start by repurposing the land that grows the corn we turn into ethanol at somewhere around or below unity EROEI, as a political handout to the midwestern states. "Burning a megajoule of diesel, to grow enough corn to make something slightly less than a megajoule of gasoline," is not a winning solution to any problem but "How to best hand money to states that happen to have early Presidential primaries." It's not a bad gig for Iowa (I lived there for a decade), but neither is it a particularly good use of energy, fossil fuels, or money. Let's put solar up there, and work out.

Once we've gotten rid of the ethanol debacle, we can see where things are and discuss from that point, but there is a lot of farmland right now that doesn't grow human or animal food, it grows corn that we process rather inefficiently into ethanol.

I don't understand this argument at all. I have everything on my desktop (laptop). Tax forms, credit card statements, bank statements, financial info, photos of all kinds, emails, ssh keys, etc., going back many many years.

> It just needs to be better than no review

It's not clear that this is true. I think that the existence of app review makes unwary consumers overconfident about the crapp store, and then they get scammed. That's how these scam apps exist and make money. The App Store is honeypot, a scammer's paradise. It's a lot easier to get yourself highly ranked in App Store search than it is to find people to scam on the open internet. But Apple tells consumers that the App Store is safe, which is a lie.

> it does fare majorly better than Android

The lesser of two evils is still evil.

> The app store process and notarization also means apps can be revoked.

Notarization is sideloading.

Now we know what all the Borg were doing in their cube ships. Between occasional bouts of conquest and assimilation they were all frying in a sizzling bath of repetitive dopamine triggering meme soup created by AIs and other members of the hive mind.

Maybe they lurched out and attacked or assimilated someone when a new trending channel appeared that urged such activities.

I joke but it really is a bit spooky how plausible the Borg are today to the point that I can imagine what it would be like to be part of them. It’d be like scrolling TikTok but with Neuralink.
From GitHub it looks like the code was generated with GPT-3.5. I wonder how GPT-4 does with the same prompts?
YouTube's search is pretty much horseshit now. Trip off any wrongthink keywords and it will give you nothing but CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, and NPR. I wrote an add-on that blocks all these channels by filtering out anything with the verified checkmark, and it's pretty revealing as to how much content YouTube suppresses. It's pretty clear who's buttering their biscuits.
That’s absolutely true. Managers promote managers and there’s a lot of tribalism in management. But I think it’s naive, and a common form of naïveté among engineers, that everything begins and ends with the IC and the senior leaders.
I don’t think asking someone a question about their own specific opinion about whether a particular website could help their peers OR NOT, is the same as promotion. For example, earlier today I promoted a service that I built (see my comment history) and clearly disclosed that it’s mine.

In fact, sometimes you don’t WANT the person to know whether what you’re asking about is yours, so they can give a more honest assessment without worrying about hurting your feelings. It should not matter, and for some purposes it shoild be disclosed, whether you made it.

As for being accused of shilling… sounds like the crowd accusing you was pretty extreme. The definition of a shill from Wikipedia is indeed nefarious:

In most uses, shill refers to someone who purposely gives onlookers, participants or "marks" the impression of an enthusiastic customer independent of the seller, marketer or con artist, for whom they are secretly working. The person or group in league with the shill relies on crowd psychology to encourage other onlookers or audience members to do business with the seller or accept the ideas they are promoting. Shills may be employed by salespeople and professional marketing campaigns. Plant and stooge more commonly refer to a person who is secretly in league with another person or outside organization while pretending to be neutral or part of the organization in which they are planted, such as a magician's audience, a political party, or an intelligence organization
3. I wish I could use them but everytime I go and check rust jobs, I can do 2-3x the income doing some boring crap in JS

The soundcard analogy may not be that faulty. General purpose soundcards have pretty much been replaced by motherboard components, while high end soundcards (audio interfaces) for DAW (digital audio workstation) use cases are an entirely separate market.

Side note: Most of those high end audio interfaces are now external devices connected via USB (formerly also via Firewire).

And since a DAW typically doesn’t need high end video, I didn’t bother with a separate GPU on my latest DAW build. I will only add a GPU card, if I ever want to do higher end gaming, video production or machine learning on that computer.

Oh wow, someone should alert the Linux kernel maintainers. Do you want to tell them that it’s impossible to write correct C code? And the rust compiler team, too. After all, if nobody can write safe assembly then whatever they’re doing is either unsafe or magically gets the computer to understand rust directly. Or are they relying on LLVM for their code generation? I forget what language that’s written in, but nothing “unsafe” happens there surely.

All code is machine code at bottom. Including the code that maintains abstractions convincing enough for you to think the “memory-safety” of rust or any other language is a static and guaranteed thing and not something that needs “unsafe” scaffolding to support it.
I had this buying some weed derivative edibles (marketed as delta 8) in a state with full on prohibition.

I've smoked weed, I've had edibles (both homemade and from fully legal dispensaries), and at most got kind of spaced out and overly talkative. Whatever this stuff really was, it presented as a wholly different experience; strong hallucinations, time felt like it was slowing, inability to focus, loss of motor control (like unable to get down a flight of stairs), even unable to operate my phone enough to send a text message. Ultimately it led to panic and fear; I was completely unprepared and basically incapacitated until the next day. It ranks as one of the worst experiences in my life, and it felt as if it would never end.

There's a wide range of experience possible from this stuff, even things that (should you believe the internet) are as harmless as weed.

After this, I feel like I'm done for good. Whatever nebulous and unproven benefits that might possibly exist don't seem to be worth the very real risks (that I now am aware of first hand).

Gen Z here. I grew up on YouTube. I’m 25 now, so technically a cusper but had an iPod touch and YouTube since third grade.

Videos of travel have a lot of value. I was stuck behind a desk for 4 years at my programming job. The last 7 months of travel has done so much for the rest of my entire human experience that I could never get from a textbook. Plus it’s fun to see people explore the world. We’ve been fascinated by this stuff since the beginning of humanity.

Reality videos and reality TV all show elements of how relationship dynamics work. They often are fraught with bad narratives, but they model conflict and resolution between people. This can be helpful as a guide to understanding human interaction.

I’m not saying that it is all bringing value to their lives, but there is something inherently interesting about the content they’re consuming. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be.

The challenge for you is to go into their world and understand what they value. You might even change your definition of the word “value”
/dev/sda? Case sensitive file system?

> less informative end of the spectrum

My experience is that my recommendations are 80% good but lightly sprinkled with random stuff that is known to addict and exploit people in my demographic. It reminds me of gambling and other businesses that make a disproportionate amount of their money off of a few "whales" who invest an unhealthy amount of their lives into it. They're happy to serve you and make a tiny bit of money off you, but their real goal is to turn you into a whale.

My theory is that some small percentage of my recommendations (2-3%) are dedicated to YouTube's best guess at, "What would this guy watch if he was miserable enough to watch YouTube 16 hours a day?"
C programmers are implicitly converted to the required type.

Implicit conversions are one thing I don't like about C, or at least the way it ended up as int grew (maybe it would have been better if ANSI had picked unsigned-preserving, but maybe that's just grass-is-greener thinking). I also don't like how UB turned into “a license for the compiler to undertake aggressive optimizations that are completely legal by the committee's rules, but make hash of apparently safe programs.”

I do like the directness and explicitness. Good C can be very nice.
> has created an attitude of "keyboard doesn't matter";

I think you would be surprised at just how powerful the keyboard subsystem in osx is and how malleable it is with some programs or even just editing the plist shortcuts. every menu item in any application can be given a per app or universal shortcut in `system preferences | keyboard | shortcuts | app shortcuts`

You can also use a thing like hammerspoon to do whatever you can imagine basically too... i have a few things for window manipulations via hammerspoon.

You can set up very complex keyboard re-mappings/shortcuts using something like karabiner elements.

you can also change the keyboard access to be navigable via tab in keyboard settings too.

and you can access the menu via ctrl-f2 by default. those settings are changeable too via the keyboard preference pane.

i think you'd be surprised at how much apple cares about accessibility so keyboard nav is not just a power user thing.

At the end of the day I think apple put a lot of thought into the UI and i'd feel pretty stymied going back to windows.(though now the power utilities finally let you remap the windows key to something more useful like ctrl.

It’s not necessarily what I would choose, but my mom had the same problem and after a lot of research decided on OpenBSD, plus classic X utilities (xv, xpdf, gvim, xterm, etc). It’s something of a learning curve, but they all change very slowly and are big on backwards compatibility, so once you figure out how things work and get them set up for your needs it’ll probably keep working that way for a long time to come.
If it gets to a dozen I’d grumble about wanting to fit more code on screen, but this just isn’t a problem we’ve ever had. I think the urge to enforce complete uniformity is bad for a collegial high-trust team.

Agreed, Intel gave up and released the I226 because their I225 brand was so tarnished. I removed the I225 from my server after I noticed the driver crashing during heavy loads (Ubuntu 22.04). For USB I've been having success with the rtl8156bg from juplink.

That's pretty much what I was describing in my initial reply to your top-level comment that would be an improvement, just not built in.

Ideally though I'd like a tool with first class declarative schema as the source of truth - migrations that Django can correctly autogenerate don't need to concern me at all; if I need to vary them or resolve some ambiguity in a possible path (renamed a column vs. dropped and added one, for a simple example) then there can be some way of specifying that migration. Essentially as Django targets its models as the intended result of migrations (and complains of a missing migration if they don't get there, etc.) I'd prefer instead to target SQL schema. Still check ORM consistency - but against the schema, not the migrations of it.

Starting from scratch it seems obvious that you'd have the schema, and the mapping into python models. Django does away with the former by inference, but in so doing limits its scope to the subset of possibly desired SQL that it understands.

If you have SQL and Python, then you can have DSL for the understood subset without losing migrations, tracking in a single place, etc. of the rest. You could also give Django ownership of the entire database/schema, so that any manual experiments/adjustments would be blown away on migration, they'd have to be documented in code to be persisted.

The users of Eaglercraft.

>Surely you're not suggesting that someone can pirate their own property?

Mojang owns Minecraft. People who have a license to play the game can still pirate the game if they download the game from someone who does not have the rights to distribute the game. Eaglercraft did not even require someone to own an account to run.
