Stupid, silly me who knows little-to-nothing about the lore of OS. Why can't OS devs simply write out in the OS licensing that their wonderful work is usable by anyone and everybody unless you belong to Alphabet/Meta/Oracle/Adobe/Twitter/Microsoftpen– McCorps & their subsidiaries?

I imagine it comes down to ol' Googly & the boys taking advantage of the OS work -> OS devs backed by weak NFOs sue X corp. -> X corp. manages to delay the courts and carries on litigation so the bill is astronomical aka ain't nobody footing that -> ???

I imagine 90% end up taking some sort of $ and handover the goods like Chromium, though.

Why would you ever use an app for a website? Opening a browser gives you the same information, with far more control over how it is presented to you, without the extra data collection and ads that come with using an app.
No, I'm not in a position to conduct such an experiment. Even if all the interview process does is identify people who were conscientious enough to prepare well, it doesn't seem unfair to me.

Yes you don't need to be on windows if you have a quasi monopoly on 1 billion devices. But except swift and java there is no language that can pretend to it.
What your daughter learns/inherits/rebels against from you will derive from your actions, not your words. What choices you make, how you treat her, what your true motivations are, you emotional or lack of emotional response to situations. In essence, who you are. So really, working to be a good parent isn't different from working to be a good person.

Remember her early years are more formative than her later years. The foundation of her personality traits will be set in the first five years, and the subfloor in the next 5. Those will fixed for the rest of her life. She only remodel the things built on top, but she can't ever change those early layers. At best she can put lots of corrective/counteracting layers on top.

Focus on love, understanding, kindness, being present, listening, honesty, fairness -- and readily admit to her when you've made a mistake or are wrong. Don't demand that she apologize. Instead, apologize to her when you fuck up. Model the behavior.

Slavic languages do perfectly fine without articles. As Polish speaker I say leave them out ;) .
Wanting to do early experimentation, that is currently only allowed to occur on animals due to safety concerns, on humans is definitionally unethical and especially dangerous. We banned it because it is unethical and especially dangerous in basically every case. There are literal decades of experience and piles of bodies supporting that point.

Obviously there are some exceptions, but whatever Neuralink is doing is not one of them. Their technology and any benefits it might bring is at best wholly speculative and would require years to reduce to practice. There is exactly zero compelling reason why they should be given a pass on human testing safety.

Suggesting that it would be acceptable to replace their animal testing with human testing as long as the volunteers were willing is about as “open and shut” unethical as you can get.
Perhaps you can use linting to force some (or all) of the rules instead of having the same discussion in code reviews.

Well, yes, but other words aren’t wrong and irritating to many readers. The point is that the usage in question has several disadvantages, but zero redeeming features.

> "To comprise" and "to be comprised of" contain the same word, but not in the same sense.

That’s not the point. “To shoot” and “to be shot” contain the same word, but mean opposite things, but that’s a well understood result of active vs passive voice, and nobody objects to that.
However, imagine some people would start using “to be shot” to mean “to shoot”. So, they’d say “Peter was shot by Paul” to mean that Peter shot Paul, that is, Paul was shot by Peter. And then the dictionary would add that as a secondary meaning. Can’t you see how people might object to that?
Here is how things will play out: massive population movements will ensue when entire areas of the most densely populated countries on Earth become unlivable. Conflict zones with killbots will be established under one pretense or another to block such movements into rich countries. Exclusion zones will be reinforced by tactical nukes rendering transit zones deadly.

You may not like it and downvote this. But we can already see the gears in motion. I have seen decades of warnings about imminent global warning. Yet the momentum has only increased. The Western Alliance has only a limited window of time where it can permanently block Chinese progress into military parity. They will act within it. The Taiwan conflict inevitability rhetoric is intensifying with each passing year.

What about it is objectively wrong?

Mastodon does have retweets, and the joining is really easy after you pick a server. I think it's better that people have to pick and can still communicate with others who picked differently, instead of there being one obvious choice.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by "natural fault lines"? The rest of that paragraph seems to refer to performance -- is that the criterion? Do the natural fault lines shift if you manage to optimise the performance of a component, so that it starts scaling at the same rates as its neighbours?
If North America were to confront its past more honestly and earnestly, it could uncover some time-tested and "homebrew" methods for achieving equilibrium – providing valuable insights and fostering ripple effects for other (affluent) countries.

It would take a full system change, but it could be done.

Hotels have also improved. Things like not needing to queue up to check in and get a room key (because now it appears automatically on your phone) are great, and make the Airbnb system of “I’ll meet you at the apartment at 2:30 unless I get held up at work or traffic is bad, in which case you’ll wait indefinitely” seem archaic.
Oh ok. So that's layouting that is different? (all else being accounted for)
You can get similar behavior with bash's built-in history by setting a few options:

# append to .bash_history and reread after each command
export PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a;$PROMPT_COMMAND"
# append to .bash_history instead of overwriting
shopt -s histappend

true, this information will also be available to everyone in short time, but i don't think it's a big problem.

secrecy is a sliding scale, and delaying and thinning out access to this information makes it "more secure" but surely some cleaning person will tell their buddies over a pint.
I'm not sure if you'll win or loose that argument.
Not true. You can make any system arbitrarily complex. And 95% of software developers IMHO are hell-bent on proving that true every single day. Micro-services is a GREAT example of this.

The stock PS1 bugged me a bit, so I mangled it down to this

That's not too far from this one which I use and have seen quite a few others use too --- really hate a lot of the newer defaults that hide the full path for some reason, and managed to convince a coworker who accidentally edited the file of the same name in the same directory with a different path to use it too:

'\u@\h:\w$ '

Also I should mention that in this era of constant telemetry^Wspyware and tracking, everything you say can and will be used to identify or correlate you, and that does include using non-default configuration. Of course, how much this matters depends on the context in which you say it.

What I find absolutely intriguing is the existence of multiple compile/runtimes, like a Matryoshka doll. LISPs are most famous for attempting to solve this problem with their macro systems. The JVM ecosystem also has a very oft used, but more advanced case for this: runtime code generation.

Depending on how dynamic your problem is this might be required and then “traditional compile-time” macros would not be enough.

Tldr: Another fact free anti-WFH puff piece.
The joke photo is much closer to reality than many ight believe, according to OpenAI at least. OpenAI employees have claimed they can search direct strings generated by the system for expanding bullet points on their whole database and receive a "mirrored pair" of another user putting in the long form text and receiving bullet points in a very large percentage of samples.
So the real joke here is that 1) OpenAI clearly spends an enormous time just looking through all text you give to them manually all day, and 2) were pushing tons of CO2 into the atmosphere in order to expand and contract text over and over with tons of compute cycles, essentially wasted for what nobody wants.
That's a bit extreme. I lived in a city with a similar climate for over a decade and had no problem walking, running, biking, and playing basketball in 110+ degree dry heat. I now live in a relatively humid area and I wouldn't go hiking when it gets over 85 degrees.
If it’s a real idea rather than a negotiation tactic with Apple, then it does start to make it into a sales commission of 3-5% meaning employees will have more of an incentive to upsell regardless of benefit to the customer for a higher % cut.

As to how many customers would look to pay an extra $45 on a $900 phone…
Well, groovy runs on top of the JVM and can change every method even on an object-level, or even implement how non-defined functions are to be run.
Does Tesler’s law apply to lines of code or architecture?

I have absolutely seen complex code that was created (often for perceived “best practices” like DRY) which could be removed by simplifying the code.
If you'd said that about OpenAI's DALL-E 2 you'd have been wrong.

I suspect Open Source LLMs will outpace the release version of GPT-4 before the end of this year.

It's less likely they will outpace whatever version of GPT-4 is shipped later this year, but still very much possible.
Not to mention the resume padding technology.

You can no longer claim to have expertise in OpenShift, Redis, Kafka and RabbitMQ and machine learning from having implemented a todo app :-(
Yes.

That's how it was done prior to the 1800s.
A good rule of thumb is that if you’re starting a new project and immediately implement microservices, you’ve already failed.

Never seen it work, don’t think I ever will. The only way microservices can ever work is if they’re extracted over time as the monolith gets fleshed out, likely over the course of years. And even they’re probably a bad idea.

But isn't that introducing incidental complexity? Not sure if you actually disagree.
"Nobody knows what's wrong with themselves, and everyone else can see it right away."
And that makes it pretty notable compared to all the linear attention/retrieval schemes that didn't pan out. Not saying this will pan out, but we'll know more without waiting six months for the model to train.

you’ve never made a mistake in your future predictions?

Sure, but I own my mistakes and accept that it's on me to live with the consequences. When a company axes its "free forever" accounts it's passing the consequences of the mistake on to the users. I contend that is making the outcome of the mistake worse rather than better. I don't see how you can argue it's a good thing that people should just accept.
He does claim that, but you can extend it to early-state projects, even at big companies. It also makes onboarding harder, so you have to include that factor, too.

My last comment here for a while, but to answer the question... you might not end up being able to? Like, ever?

It's like asking "how do I win the lottery." You can improve your odds. And you might also never win. A lot of people never win the lottery despite buying a lot of tickets.

For some people, success at building connections is a matter of personality. Or it might be the area where you live. Maybe it's how closely in touch you are with people you knew from grade school and college, or whether you moved away from the town where you grew up. Maybe it's whether you're close with coworkers. Maybe it's whether you are enthusiastic about hobbies you have in common with others, or maybe it's how you look and dress.

There are so many different factors that influence the outcome for any given individual. You can follow none of the commonplace advice and end up in the middle of an active social network. Or you can put a lot of energy into trying things out and come out empty-handed in the end.
Interesting work! Thanks for putting this together.

Yeah. I think what it boils down to is inexperienced developers and shortsighted product managers are capable of bad design choices in any paradigm. And handing them a new paradigm that's en vogue will all but guarantee they'll mess it up.

Perhaps the real crux is that large teams don't build good software. Especially not from the ground up.
PhD students are typically more knowledgeable than the PI, so this is probably optimal. Perhaps a good Postdoc is better. PIs are often way outdated in their knowledge and don't have the time or energy to stay abreast the developments in the field. That's what PhDs are for - they have to prove themselves in developing what should be their most important work of their lifetime before switching to what is essentially management, rather than science, unfortunately.
My impression is that for whatever wage level is provided, there will still be a vocal minority (majority?) that will demand tipping as a practice. There is a strong presumption to see it as a free boost to wages rather than just substituting an upfront price for an after-service fee.
Nonetheless, it is a bit surprising that a single query results in 100 emails. It seems to send one email for each object observed, rather than a single email informing the user that their job has finished.
My wife and I used to spend a lots of time pairing socks for the family after laundry. We hated it. When my son started picking up clothes and socks for himself to ware everyday, he picked any two socks, no bother to pair at all. We tried several times teaching him to find matching socks but we failed.

Now everyone in the family wares unmatched socks… the little one changed our family :D I am wondering whether the kids will start pairing socks when he and his older sister grow up to teenagers and start paying attention to their appearances.
What are the specific decisions along this course of events? I guess nobody says "Our primary app has calcified and become too difficult to modify. Let's make microservice hell!"

But what do people say that leads down that road, in your experience?
If a company states something is 'forever' or 'unlimited' they should be held to exactly that offer. Companies should not be able to use very appealing language and then just say "but obviously we didn't really mean forever!".

Using language with a specific meaning with no intention to actually honor what you're offering is fraud.
Well sure it’d be unsettling but like… what, are you just going to stop language from changing? Good luck with that. We’re just along for the ride, if people start using it that way, then that’s what it means now. Objecting to that is about as much use as to be pissed into the wind.
"All that is required for a vehicle to be a write-off is that it would cost more to return to marketable condition than the market value it would then have."

My natural inclination was to say “so hamburger menus can be implemented badly, but they can also be implemented properly so this is no reason to advise against hamburger menus as a whole”.

But I think it’s also worth remembering that patterns matter, and if almost everyone gets something wrong, it’s small consolation that it was an unforced error. If a different pattern is similarly acceptable and done badly far less often, pragmatism suggests pushing the alternative, because the average result will be better.

When I use hamburger menus on regular web pages, I implement them so that they’re entirely adequately accessible, and work with no JavaScript. (Depending on the situation, I’ll either use <details> or a checkbox hack with reasonable labels and such, and I may enhance things with a small snippet of JavaScript.) But I lack faith in almost anyone else’s implementations.

I would note also that the ARIA example you link to fails one of the criteria of this article: JavaScript-free operation. It’s also only suitable for some sorts of hamburger menus; it’s unlikely to be a suitable pattern for website header navigation menus, which are really more a navigation palette than a menu (to use very fuzzy terms!), and which are the main focus of this article.
I’m seeing plenty of that already.
It depends massively on the local condition where you live, I guess. AirBNB just deliver the service. It's hardly their fault if not enough people signed up in your area.

My typical experience in small towns where I live is that there is no hotel, or it's way out of town and clearly aimed at passing motorists. The same town might have 20+ AirBNBs, a mix of shared and exclusive. So that's where I stay.

>As someone who has lost _way too many_ people in the last 18 months and only 1 of them being immediate family, having those others considered not worth mourning according to the company is just repulsive.

The judgement is not that the others are "not worth mourning", but rather that it's not worth having an employee who is going to spend a sufficiently substantial fraction of their overall tenure on bereavement leave, and at some point you have to tell them to either work or quit. Which is of course trivially true, eg. the goldfish case.
