I work on a large codebase that uses Gradle. We're occasionally held up as an example: "see? This corp uses Gradle for something this large, so it must be good." We have a regularly scheduled meeting with Gradle where we have in the past influenced their feature prioritization. We also have a former Gradle engineer on staff.

Gradle is such garbage. I can't count the number of times our ex-Gradler has said "you're not going to like the answer..."

Everything is action-at-a-distance and implicit. You can't answer basic questions like:

- Why does this task exist?

- Why does this task depend on this other task?

- Why did this file get included or excluded?

- How did I get 4 dependencies on 4 different versions of the same library?

You can't answer this stuff because some random include file in some random place reached into a task that had already been created and modified it. And there's no way to find out where this happened. I don't understand why you would want a build system that has build tasks that are mutable.

And yes, it would be nice if people wouldn't do action-at-a-distance, or would not do weird stuff to tasks after they've been created, but that's not really possible. We've actually gone through the trouble of writing a linter that makes sure that devs aren't doing anything too crazy in their .gradle files. But of course some files have to do crazy stuff, so there's an escape hatch, so everyone just uses that.
I'm guessing a mod added that in, since I didn't.

It is accessible tho. It just takes a bit for me to create an account.
But it is free, both by the casual definition (zero cost) and by FSF definition (Free Software).

>It's a common but I think unhelpful observation that americans make racism worse by focusing on race more.

Common, unhelpful, and selective. The whole idea of "race" is arbitrary and meaningless. Ask someone to come up with a specific definition of who qualifies as a member of what "race", and they won't be able to, because it doesn't exist. Obviously we are saddled with the barbaric vestiges of the past, but that doesn't mean that we are forced to carry them on, codify them, and pretend like they have any sort of objective meaning. All the identify fetishists, racialists, and those who insist on codifying the nonsensical racial nonsense from the past are part of the problem, do a disservice to society and prevent us from moving forward.

No, Ryzen 7 is the high end of their regular desktop chips. ThreadRipper is a different market segment altogether, and with all the ones they've released so far have been worse for gaming outside of a few titles that really benefit from the high thread count.

Intel and Ryzens consumer chips both follow the same marketing formula:

> Celeron/Athlon: ultra low end

> Ryzen 3/i3: low end

> Ryzen 5/i5: mid range

> Ryzen 7/i7: high end

> Ryzen 9/i9: I have money coming out of my ears and want a bigger number than everyone else.

CPUs in general are cheaper than GPUs - spending the same amount on the CPU as the GPU has almost never been the right move.

The fact that you have to move out of the consumer product range and into the workstation stuff to even find CPUs that cost as much as high end consumer GPUs should make that clear - the GPU equivalent in that space would be stuff like Quadros or RTX AXXX, which just like threadrippers and epycs are worse for gaming because they focus on memory and stability rather than raw power.

Would this support musical analysis like automatic score transcription or only NLP audio?
You can technically add a Content-Length header for each part. It's not forbidden by the RFC, but nor is it common. It caused problems (https://github.com/square/okhttp/issues/2138) for OkHttp, and they eventually removed it. Might be fine for internal-only use, though.

Boundaries are a lot like UUIDs, and rely on the same logic. When generating random data, once you have enough bits, the odds are against that sequence of bits ever having been generated before in the universe.

That works fine if the use-case allows for high-latency and doesn't need TCP. To your point, I would imagine most all home use-cases are fine in this regard.

As an actual Irish person I have to say that I don't know anyone that thinks the celebrations in the states are disrepectful. We don't take ourselves as seriously as Americans do, so we can have fun with a bit of parody and mockery. However, if the situation was reversed, I would find it hard to believe an American in Ireland would be offended if we celebrated independence day with big Uncle Sam hats and American flags. Many things certainly are racist, but of all things, celebrating a (my) country's national holiday is not.
> You can gzip the entire Multipart response, but you cannot pick and choose compression for particular parts.

Sure you can. I designed a system where the client uploads a multipart-form that's three parts, the first part is JSON ("meta") and the next two parts are gzipped blobs ("raw.gz" and "log.gz"). The server reads the first part which is metadata that tells it how to handle the next two parts.

Oh yeah that makes a lot of sense! Wouldn't actually be too hard to let people customize scenarios + personalities to "simulate" negotiations before they go into one.

The real issue would be the unit economics here since GPT-4 is quite expensive for a single play through! I wonder which type of businesses would have the budget to pay for a more refined version of this demo?

https://bellard.org/lte/

> LTEENB allows to build a real 4G LTE/5G NR base station (called an eNodeB (4G) or gNodeB (5G)) using a standard PC and a low cost software radio frontend. All the physical layer and protocol layer processing is done in real time inside the PC, so no dedicated hardware is necessary. NB-IoT and Cat-M1 devices are also supported. The software is now developped and distributed by Amarisoft.
Vintage 2020-2024+ are going to be some of the worst for PE, after a 40 year bull run driven by rates going from 20% in 1981 to 0% in 2021. Now there's too much capital in the hands of people who have been trained for years that to be successful, all they need to do is deploy capital, without a real understanding of the underlying business. Just ask experienced operators if their PE board members know what they're doing; I'd venture to guess the vast majority would respond negatively. It will take a few years for this excess cash to get washed out, and then you'll have a longer-term washout of all these people who have spent years refining their skills to be good at capital deployment, not to return capital in a differentiated way (per Bain stat on 5% driven by profit). For so many years, the business has basically been "show up, be a reliable soldier / good politician, know how to deploy capital, and you'll get promoted and make a bunch of money". It's hard to see how that will remain the case, particularly as the LP return expectations go up transitioning from a positive sum environment to a zero sum environment.

It feels like we're in the middle of a "back to basics" moment. Funds will need to figure out ways to develop true operating advantages, but not in just a performative way like most have done in the last 20 years. Now it will really count. There are a small set of funds who are true experts, spend management fees on teams of experts that are constantly involved to support management (not just an outsourced recruiting team, a bench of "advisors" with nice brand names, or a Bain team on retainer, but truly know how to operate all aspects of a business). And the exciting thing is that there are people who do this well, consistently. I.e., it is possible with the right team and execution. And there is a particularly interesting opportunity right now in that so many businesses are PE-owned and poorly managed, for those who know what they're doing. Lot of things that worked before in a low/zero cost of capital environment will now break and create forced sellers.

Reality here likely ends up being far more complex / unpredictable, but directionally this feels accurate.
Very limited use. There was another similar tool a while back on HN where it added a 3D effect and a shading to any screenshot, making it more fancy for demo purposes. This just adds a background.

I don't think a cylinder is a circle or a square, though. It might look like one when rendered in 2D but it feels like a different thing entirely.

Now that I think about it, maybe you could also explain this idea by comparing Javascript's == and === operators.

For me it’s the fact that everything about it seems to be about making the tool easier for the developers who wrote it to write it rather than making it easier for the people actually using it. It periodically tells me that garbage collection has given up and I need to run a specific git command to make it work again. Why doesn’t it just run it since it knows the command? Also, as a user, is there any benefit to me knowing that garbage collection happens at all? I’ve never had to know or care about that with any other source control tool. Either it didn’t exist, or it worked so well that it never came up.

There’s a bunch of modal-ness (modality?) throughout git. You can’t be explicit about things so it’s extremely easy to make a mistake. I’ve frequently gone to make a branch only to realize I had the wrong parent checked out, so now my branch is branched off the wrong thing. In other systems I could say “<tool name> create branch x from parent y”. In fact, this has happened so frequently in our group at work, that several reminders have gone out to “make sure you branch off the correct branch…”

It handles large files really poorly and requires a 3rd party tool to make it work reasonably. But then if you use lfs or a similar tool, several other 3rd party tools that work with git don’t work.
Conversely, circa 2016-2018 it was around $25-30 USD to Uber from far northwest Austin to the airport (excluding, or perhaps including, the weird time where Uber and Lyft left Austin out of spite for their local ordinance which was subsequently preempted by the state legislature). This is around 20-30 minute ride depending on traffic. Now that same ride is minimum $50 USD, usually closer to $70 USD.

So those numbers absolutely match up in my city, at least from the rider’s perspective. STILL better than taxis, however. Of course there is inflation, but that doesn’t nearly account for this discrepancy. I can’t provide exact driver numbers but I sometimes have the courage to ask the driver what they are making and on average when I do ask it’s about 1/3 of what I am paying. Never more than half.
There is a lot of incidental complexity in Bazel. I hope that a new build system can solve its many missteps.

- Expressions written in a simple language, doesn’t have to be Starlark but it does the job

- Remote caching and execution

- Cross compilation

Franklin... died of ovarian cancer in 1958 at just 37

This is news to me. I've heard before that supposedly her work was "stolen" by men in the field. I have always thought it more likely that she thought she needed more evidence or something like that. Women seem to have trouble getting good mentors and, like Vinny in My Cousin Vinny, may be weak when it comes to procedure -- aka the culture of the appropriate way to do things and get it taken seriously, etc.

Knowing she died so young makes me think this is largely why she "lacked adequate recognition" in the eyes of people crying sexism. I doubt that. I've heard of her and heard hand-wavy versions of how some guy stole from her or whatever but never looked into it because such stories tend to be framed in a way that frequently strikes me as biased and counterproductive as a woman trying to find my own path forward.

Women do face challenges. My opinions as to what those challenges are tend to differ from popular framing.

And this section fits more with my view of such things:

Franklin did not succeed, partly because she was working on her own without a peer with whom to swap ideas. She was also excluded from the world of informal exchanges in which Watson and Crick were immersed.

This is neat and I never noticed this. For 5, I guess the linear component would be (2*3*5)k, but it isn't as interesting or useful because the constant component would be +/- 1, 7, 11, or 13. This method feels like it's basically a "higher order prime sieve".

Oh, and because this pattern (of 1 always being one of the constants) carries out for arbitrarily large linear coefficients, that also explains the "twin prime" phenomenon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKHKD8bRAro

Isn't 4k+1/4k-1 rule trivial though?

If we take any number K=N*4 divisible by 4 and >2, that'd be an even number by definition. The two closest odd numbers on either side would be (K-3), (K-1), (K+1), (K+3). As it happens (K+3) is the same as K(-1) for the next N, and (K-3) is the same as (K+1) for the previous N. So _all_ odd numbers follow this rule.

What "4k+1 or 4k-1" says in a roundabout way is that all prime numbers (>2) are odd, which isn't much of a surprise.
Startups and the R&D Tax Credit
I run a pretty large online retail business, and the reality is that cheap tat sells an order of magnitude more in volume compared to higher quality, more expensive items.

Consumers are impulsive[1], and get a genuine rush from spending money and receiving pretty packages.

Things like listing rank (ie, being the top item in Best Match), eye-catching pictures and low prices, in that order, matter far more than how useful the product is, because the utility of the product itself is irrelevant to this kind of consumer.

[1] Or, more specifically, the consumer dollar is impulsive. Non-impulsive people are far less likely to fritter away their money on cheap retail purchases.
Sorry, no. For myself, I prefer to start from scratch, and I’ve never been particularly satisfied with any of these sorts of ones that I’ve found.
Very exciting. I was already looking forward to the Phoenix APUs making it into handhelds, but these chips seem even more apt for that purpose.

There's some buzz about these being in the next Nintendo handheld[1].

AMD has the mobile and console markets cornered. I do wish it had more competition, though. NVIDIA is effectively dead in this segment. Apple has a great chipset, yet seems asleep at the wheel when it comes to gaming. Or at least not interested in being a real competitor outside of their walled garden.

I actually meant the author. She is taking Musk too seriously. There may be people in the general public, who are unrelated to SpaceX or anything space related, who are crazy about Mars. But my point is that even SpaceX has plenty to do besides going to Mars, and nobody in government or private industry is pushing for Mars colonization with any kind of religious fervor.

Ambitions are a good thing. I do believe it is a good idea to have a permanent settlement on Mars, mostly for scientific reasons. But there's no "race" toward this goal, not even a forceful push. Progress is slow but steady now.
This is one of my favourite mysteries.

How is it that all even number are the sum of 2 primes and odd number the sum of 3 primes?
As far as org-roam versus Notion, Obsidian, etc... it's very reiliable and predictable. Sometimes it requires more effort to say learn to use table.el to have the poor mans ascii table equivalent of a kanban board that doesn't mess up with long lines... but... it works and keeps working.

Plus transparent support for gpg by naming files something.org.gpg or even making all of your org roam files encrypted by default is great. However beware, the sqlite database is still not encrypted. So be okay with that, delete the (easily regeneratable from org source files) database on logout/shutdown, or figure something else out.

so basically what TFA says is if you build a new model on Nate's model outputs and use that to compute conditional probabilites of various improbable scenarios you see weird shit.

But hey when you go looking into noise you are going to see.... weird shit.

>The difference is that Gradle has an obvious better alternative: Maven.

The alternative to Git is Mercurial, though I've never used it so I can't vouch for it. I do think I've read that Git is much faster though, but it's generally accepted that Mercurial's UI is a lot better and more consistent.

AFAICT, all the other alternatives to Git really can't do the same stuff Git does (namely, being distributed).
All the model links are empty, that doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
