In case of st, it actually delays the rendering. Its default config says min-latency is 8ms, and max-latency is 33ms. This probably is why OP got 20ms as an average value.

The thing is that suckless people simply want to render less, and they have always kept a way to delay rendering in st. Also, the current latency is good enough that no one really complains. TBH, it's about 1~2 frame latency on 60 fps displays, and you hardly notice the difference.
Capitalism at work? Seriously, why am I not surprised if they can get away with saving fees they wouldn’t? Big corps are ruthless, the calculations are cold. Unlike if you work for me personally for example I wouldnt want to screw someone that bad if I can help it
A lot. But it would not make reddit/HN headlines.

If OP had negotiated the contract in good faith, I don't think this would have been an issue, but if there were lot of assholery in getting that contract, the network is happy to stick it back
The crazy part of AI generated porn is that you can base it off of actual people. And not just famous people, it can’t really avoid regulation in that context.
Even more impractical, this would imply that the legal team at the company would need to negotiate terms with every single new hire's lawyer. Would be very expensive.
That’s part of the same trend: instead of writing laws, the government just says “you must be licensed by x group” and then that group writes the rules.
Why don't you focus on that instead?
Yes, I have read the link in the top of the readme in the repo about the methodology.

It is fairly cool.

Still, it is unrelated to Open Source, which isn't about having source code or the like, but about licensing.

OSI's Open Source definition is more or less the same as GNU's four freedoms.
"Doxxing" is a meaningless word, legally. I can put anyone's name and street address up on a billboard as long as I didn't aquire it through privileged means (such as if I was a records clerk at their medical clinic).

Even the bar to winning civil libel is very high. Putting up the names of public officials who you believe committed evil acts during the course of their pubic duties is extremely well inside the bounds of the first amendment and probably one is the most protected forms of speech there is.
They’re different things, though. React has a lot less going on. If you want something with a stable API for the tasks React is suited to, it doesn’t make sense to throw Angular at that job.
Sad as government should be building this out. Heck I’d argue this is perfect for a public university to partner on, providing students a real-life (but low risk) way to build production services in prep for joining the workforce.
> lazy evaluation comes at a pretty extreme performance cost

This is surprising to me. I understand it making code harder to debug because timing/ordering is less predictable, but I would expect lazy evaluation to help with performance if anything ("the code doesnt rely on a specific 'when', so the compiler/runtime are free to re-arrange stuff for optimization")

What am I missing?
While I appreciate the thought, it seems unrealistic.

> I'd like to see short contracts, arbitration, and reasonable support for pro se representation in court

The problem is in "short contracts". Short contracts are only helpful when both sides are "willing to work together" and the "spirit" of the contract is friendly. An example is a YC term sheet compared to Business Loan contract.

Once you get into an us vs them, you better hope your contract spells out exactly what happens to you and that it is in your favor.

If the contract is short, it leaves a lot of details open ended and all of a sudden interpretation sets in, "spirit of contract" sets in and the judge becomes the arbiter of how your contract gets decided. Better hope that particular judge likes you.

Instead of hoping that the judge/jury likes you, which is a game of dice, you write it into the contract up front and thusly we're back at complex, lawyer ridden contracts.
>The Estate has also never sold any Silmarillion-related material.

Why not? That was one of the big problems with Amazon's show: it couldn't use any material from The Silmarillion, only the appendices from RotK. Why wouldn't the estate want to capitalize on that, perhaps with some clauses to make sure it doesn't get butchered too much? They capitalized on the extra LotR material (to the tune of $250M as you said), so why stop there?
Rural Areas Brace for a Shortage of Doctors Due to Visa Policy - https://www.fosterglobal.com/blog/rural-areas-brace-for-a-sh...

> H-1B recipients also include foreign physicians who practice in places shunned by American doctors for personal and professional reasons.

> About 25 percent of all physicians practicing or training in the United States are foreign, but in some inner cities and most rural areas, that share is significantly higher.

The medical shortage isn't entirely about depressed wages but rather people not wanting to live and work in inner city Chicago or rural North Dakota. Being a GP isn't a job that one can telecommute easily for.

The shortages of people working as teachers and medical field - careers where location maters - are sometimes difficult to staff because people don't want to live in Fargo.
> Why might engagement be low?

Easy. The whole point of owning stock is to (a) have the right to vote in elections for the Board, (b) have a share of dividends, (c) potentially sell for a profit in the case of an acquisition or IPO.

If the company is private, with no exit in sight: (a) isn't true in your case, as your right to vote is taken away from you, (b) is a pipedream, because the company is either not profitable or because profits are being re-invested into growth.

In a bad economy, where you're trying to build up savings because you have no real idea if you or your partner or someone in your family is going to be laid off in the near future, where exercising options requires both a large cash expenditure on the part of the employee and a huge leap of faith that, in the span of years, there will be some kind of a return...

Stock-based compensation means very different things in VC-controlled and non-VC-controlled companies. Stock-based compensation is "real" in non-VC-controlled companies (be they bootstrapped businesses or large public enterprises) because there's actually a legitimate chance at a dividend issue and/or a real (if small) voice in Board elections. But the value of stock compensation in VC-controlled firms entirely depends on whether the firm is going to be a VC-style success. If it's not a portfolio winner, then the employees don't win either. And employees have a front-row perspective on whether the company is a portfolio winner.
Can you expand on (3)? It seems at first glance that the end-to-end testing (USB input through to monitor photon output) performed in this test captures the whole of the user's perception and experience.
The two biggest things that have happened in programming for decades are:

1: StackOverflow

2: ChatGPT

Nothing else comes close. Certainly not any new language.

WHY these two things are the biggest developments in programming is because they help developers solve problems and learn new things from a global accumulation of programmer knowledge.

If there was a Nobel Prize for computing then both StackOverflow and ChatGPT would be deserving of it, or the people behind them anyway.

Most of the above examples of unnecessary searches could be avoided if the UI was designed to help the user avoid unnecessary searches instead of somewhat cloning Google's UX, which is designed around searches being effectively free for them.

> In my experience people that hate Angular don't understand why they hate Angular.

One of my major annoyances is the templating language. Completely unnecessary and over complicated, compared to JSX. Just another weird syntax to learn with its own arbitrary limitations and quirks.

I think it’s a good indicator of the overengineering surrounding Angular overall.
You have to turn them off on each drive.

You can just cruise control on it’s own - it works really well.
Yeah it is pretty nice. Not sure how long it took, but less that the time to make a sandwich (2 minutes). It cost 2-3c a pop so sadly more expensive than GPT3.5. However maybe it can be optimised. Or maybe there is some init cost that could be store in state.

I am guessing that broadcast means 'over the air' and Sci Fi Channel is on cable. So they were not 'broadcast'. His contract was per 'broadcast' episode.
Can confirm. Dealt with the exact same issue when a company founder died on a project. AWS was even lenient on the bills for a couple months while the company sorted out the financial cleanup and inheritance matters.

Yes?

It's pretty cheap if it's a standard contract. If you're friends with a lawyer they will do it for free. They will generally tell you where the pitfalls are, even when you can't negotiate your contract.

"get passed over because companies decide to fund some new(er) shiny thing instead" is not a fair or reasonable assessment. Why would a startup that's racing against time and money decide to create a new language when something already exists that can meet their needs with just a little tweaking?

My post embeds my recent keynote at JuliaCon in which I lay out some of the shortcomings of the language, as I see it.

MLIR didn't even exist when Julia was created. A language that can really take advantage of MLIR, and is designed from the ground up for modern accelerators, is not something that can be readily created by tweaking Julia AFAICT.
Not quite sure I follow. But I built an asp.net api and deployed it into lambda and it cost $2/m and when it started to get more traffic and the cost got to $20/m I moved it to a t4g instance.

When I moved it, I didn’t need to make any code changes :) I just made a systemd file and deployed it.
If it is only used as an identifier and not also authentication that would be a phenomenal upgrade.

If the board is just looking at stock and shareholder returns, they are doing a disservice to google. The company is at a critical juncture, it has matured and no longer that young/hip company it used to be. Employee morale is low, GCP is underperforming and Microsoft is eating their lunch. Search has plateaued and their devices are just average. What is going to give them the next 20yrs of growth? All I see is ade about google certified courses for people. I am not even talking about AI or their utter incapacity to productize either AI or self driving tech. Sundar has failed on all fronts if he has just maintained the status quo

Ergonomic wise what holds Julia back other than the deployment story is that they refuse to adopt nims universal call syntax approach f(a,b) = a.f(b)
Broadcast means an over-the-air on public airwaves and typically also implies a huge viewership, definitely so in 1999.

The Sci-Fi channel was a cable television station and therefore not a "broadcast" station.

However, broadcast can also mean, in a general sense, to air a show.

I'm speculating here, but saying you will pay someone residuals if you "broadcast their show" may not have been a term that was equally understood by everyone. The writer and NBC both seem to have interpreted that term differently, to an amount that means nothing to NBC and a lot of money to an individual person.
Everybody born a US citizen is an "accidental" citizen, as they didn't elect to be born that way. The only difference between them and this guy is that he left early and never looked back.

You would figure a decent French accountant would have told him which US tax laws apply to him. So it seems he's parlaying his bad accounting advice into a complaint about US tax law.

But point taken about the difficulty of renouncing your citizenship. Nobody should have to travel potentially hundreds of miles to a consulate and pay $450 (or more) to renounce their citizenship.

Back in the day when Facebook games were all the rage, my wife got hooked into Farmville. After getting roped into it to help her somehow (gifts or boosts or something, I don't remember), I was struck by how repetive the actions were. Found AutoHotKey, and soon I had a near fully automated farm. Logging in every couple of days to make sure a popup hadn't messed up the pattern, my farm was soon doing quite well.

My wife, completely put out that I was 'cheating the game' decided that we didn't need to keep up with Farmville anymore. AutoHotKey saved me a lot of time.
I understand that there might be some benefit in developing Mojo in a small group. But I really wish there were some source code to compile, or at least binaries to execute. Currently it is locked behind a wait-list that might give access to executing code on a remote server... But if you make these big claims about hardware acceleration and performance, I really wish I could verify those claims on my own hardware.

Really cool project, looking up to tinkering with some actual releases soon. I know the names behind this project are highly credible, but I'm reluctant to invest much brainpower into something that might be locked up to cloud usage.
What’s the Next GOTO? [video]
Web pages have the ability to fire a “back event” that (I am pretty sure) works identically to clicking the back button on your browser. I imagine they’re using this because it’s very simple, you just put
onClick(History.back)
on the button and you’ve implemented a fully functional back button.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History/bac...

Many sites will of course eschew this simple solution in favour of custom back button logic (usually to the mild detriment of the user experience).

For example, Chrome has implemented Filesystem API
that Mozilla is still debating on

This also highlights the vastly differing goals of the various parties.

Google explicitly wants two major things from Chrome.

One, they obviously want to track as much personal information as they possibly can, because they are an ad company.

Two, they want "the web" to essentially be a full OS replacement, with filesystem access etc. Because Microsoft is one of their primary rivals (or frenemies, if you will) and they can't leave themselves to the whims of others' platforms. They need their own platform.

These goals are... well, let's say divergent (to put it mildly) from what "the web" means to others. HTTP was originally supposed to be a human-readable way to publish and link information, not an OS replacement, and certainly not a PII-siphoning tool.

And yet, some folks still default to simply assuming whatever Google decides for the web is right, simply because they seem to be moving the fastest.

Yeah, they're usually moving the fastest, but people should think about where they're heading and why.
Presumably "Broadcast episode" means an episode shown on broadcast TV, which means "transmitted via radio waves" and is distinct from cable TV (channels only available via cable TV)
After my experience with swift and the bone headed decisions made in lower level design items of the language to make it more 'ergonomic' at the expense of compile speed and debug-ability, I worry about chris latner making the same mistakes again.

Swift literally took 10x more time to compile than equivalent objective-c code for not much benefit when it first came out, along with a debugger that to this day is significantly slower, unreliable and is still buggier than the objective-c one. It also does not scale linearly in compile time speed when you throw more cores to it, unlike c, c++ & objective-c, and linking is pretty much solved now with the mold linker.

There are / were huge chokepoints in the compiling chain that caused many of these regressions, that when I learned the minor benefits they brought made me do a facepalm. So many literal expensive megayears of life wasted for so little benefit.

%80 of the benefits of swift that were cheap to implement could've been ported over something equivalent to objective-c for little to no compile time penalties with the new ergonomic language syntax, such as strong nullables and enum ADT types. To this day, it's you still have to codegen mocks. It's frustrating.

I would wait and see what benefits that mojo will actually bring, and I hope that chris and the team there has learned from their mistakes with swift, and chose compile speed over little features that many could live without.

I also hope they use this as an opportunity to solve pythons horrible package management issue and copy ideas from rust's cargo liberally.
I see... you mean banning interest. That would be a form of price control, and price controls don't tend to work very well, historically. The idea that there isn't enough money to pay interest is "interesting", but unfortunately it's also wrong. At any rate, when there isn't enough money what happens is deflation, not inflation.
The web interface assumes that you want some kind of tweet deck type thing. Most of the apps are very minimal, clean.

Anyone else run into an Angular 15 styling nightmare when upgrading to the latest Material Design (MDC) release?

I attempted to use the migration tool [0] for upgrading an in-house LOB app, but unlike previous upgrades client hated the resulting UI - understandable b/c of major styling regressions everywhere - so downgraded back to 14.

Angular 14 LTS support ends in November [1] and as best as I can tell, if we want to stay on a supported Angular release we're forced into a lot of custom styling work users simply don't care about.

If there's some way to stay on the "legacy" [2][3] components on Angular 15 or 16, would appreciate any links/hints. Cheers

> What works better is to be very clear on the big picture goals, do a speculative high level breakdown to inform an initial deadline and staffing commitment, but keep the precise scope flexible.

For this part I find that separating out the aims from the goals is a helpful, e.g.

Aim: to be sheltered from the rain

Goal: build a roof

Then you can adjust the goals (what kind of roof; materials etc) while keeping in mind whether the goals meet the aim, and whether the aims are still appropriate, and their priority too. Analysis is more difficult when the concepts are conflated.
I can’t tell anyone adequately (or completely) what it’s like to be me, why should a bat be special?

It all ends up breaking down to analogy at a certain point “well, you know what it feels like when X happens? That’s what it feels like for me when Y occurs.

Some of the simpler analogies are things we all agree on, but they’re not actually “what it’s like to be me.”

What it’s like to be a bat with a new sense could be arrived at through analogy too, but it would be harder, but it’s perfectly possible. Start with what we have in common with bats and build from there.
