This has nothing to do with "serverless". Heroku did the same thing well before serverless was available.

Keeping a simple app running on heroku over the past 15 years has required about 3 hours admin total since I set it up (moving from an old stack to a newer one).

No, they haven't.
That said, economists have lots of delusions about markets (and i point them out), but to be fair, their rationality claim is usually about efficiency, rather than some form of more general rationality.

IE rationality is things like "excess pricing opportunities are rare and go away quickly"

rather than

rationality is "people do generally sane things"

“In the labor market, demand for workers far exceeds the supply of available workers, and nominal wages have been growing at a pace well above what would be consistent with 2 percent inflation over time. Thus, another condition we are looking for is the restoration of balance between supply and demand in the labor market.”

https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/speech/powell20221...

A greater supply of workers relative to current inflation is only possible if more people are made unemployed, forced out of retirement, or there are massive changes to immigration policy. And historically, rapidly raising interest rates always results in the first.

Thats not 100% accurate, if you get the phone directly from certain carriers, they may keep the phone locked. iirc verizon is the worst at it but you can contact them and waste an hour and a half of your life over phone support to get it changed.

As a fan of games like Deus Ex and Witcher, Cyberpunk was the best game I ever played. And it's perfectly playable now (on PC under Linux).
The way I approach big numbers is to use it in a representative Major League Baseball stadium with 40,000 people, because even though it's hard to grok I at least a have a felt sense of what that is like. 1M COVID deaths, then, becomes 25 entire MLB stadiums (there are only 30 of them by the way) getting vaporized. I also use this for things like chances: a 1-in-400 would be the equivalent of 100 tickets in the stadium being selected for something, so I ask myself, "if I were at a game how excited or nervous would I be if they surprise-announced this?"

> Very rarely do I feel like I'm missing something in elisp, with the exception of concurrency support!

I have some good news for you, then! Cooperative threading was added in Emacs 26:

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Th...

https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/NoThreading

I've never used it, but the big disadvantage seems to be that unless you're going to do some super advanced macrology, any function you run within a thread needs to explicitly call `thread-yield` in order to yield back to the scheduler so other threads can run. I don't know of any library or anything that makes it so you can just take a function that isn't thread-aware, run it concurrently with other possibly not thread-aware functions, and have it all work sensibly, but at least the building blocks are there.

---

If that doesn't suit you, Emacs 25 introduced generators!

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Ge...

Generators have some funky interactions with `unwind-protect`, so handle with care.

Finally, there's also a (really old and probably won't work as is anymore, but also probably fun to poke at) coroutine library available:

https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CoRoutines

I'm sure one of those (probably emacs threads) will meet your needs nicely. :)
This is a great explanation, especially the part describing how ctrl codes are mapped to their corresponding letters.

Airbnb search is broken af and full of dark patterns to force feed consumers app preferred listings and/or maximize user ‘engagement’ on app.

Pretty basic options missing from app search:
- sort by price. SORT not filter.
- search by categories. These are only available in the landing page feed and disappear when you search for a particular place

Another dark pattern: minimum number of nights.
It's already possible, I'm working on the exact same thing.

Take a look at https://www.thorsten-voice.de/en/motivation-vision-english/. He is a german guy who is donating his voice to the community and provides a LJSpeech dataset (https://www.thorsten-voice.de/en/datasets-2/) as well as lot's of information how to use it (the quality is not as good as the commercial ones, it really is usable).

While his voice is not that bad, I would prefer my favorite german narrators to read my audiobooks, so I'm working on creating custom datasets from existing audiobooks that I own. These of course cannot be published because it would violate terms, but you can use ffmpeg to split an existing audio book by silence and transcribe it automatically using existing tools to create your own LJSpeech dataset.

There are also LJSpeech datasets for other languages - the format is pretty simple and can be used by anyone to train AI models.

The result is pretty impressive for "offline only".

(&ya, the fact that democracies are imperfect, billionaires and would-be oligarchs often corrupt politicians is NOT the same. Self-determination and democracy are not binary, but on a scale. One scale is how well power is spread across the institutions of government and society, the legislative, judicial and executive branches, the institutions of press, academy, industry, religion, society... are they independent, or all bent to serve the executive, and now many and how much?)
Playing Cyberpunk Path Tracing on a friend's 4090 was incredible. Over 100fps (with all the upscaling/framegen trickery). The visual jump is significant enough that I find it worth to power through the 40-60fps I get on my 3090 (although I often disable it for combat sections).

As soon as the average gaming PC and console has the power of a 4080/4090, rasterization is dead.

But it isn't? It's just the rule that adjectives come before nouns.

Yes, that’s what I mean by consistency. Put call parity will generally exist because it’s consistent with expected behavior, otherwise market participants will capture the inefficient pricing and bring it back to consistency. Here I mean the market has some structure and relationships between instruments and in so far as prices are consistent with the structure of the market and it’s instruments they’re “efficient,” or perhaps rational. But I think when people say “is the current marker rational or is it exuberant?” they don’t mean consistent / efficient, they mean “aligned with fundamentals in a way that makes rational sense to an economist.”
The idea they are focused on reducing employment isn't accurate.

They have several goals. One is CPI around 2%, another is full employment, another is moderate long term rates.

CPI is down significantly from peak. It's possible we'll get back to 2-3% without a ding on employment and without more interest rate increases. That's what people are likely cheering.
I could swear that the Prius was Lead Acid AGM batteries.

But like, most of the issues I had with NiMH was because the devices that had the batteries in them had no charge controllers, so all the effects I spoke about were true for those - NiMH with a battery controller, and without might as well be completely different beasts.

It's pretty close to what he said.

> The chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, said his goal is “to get wages down.”

> In a press conference on May 4, Powell announced that the Fed would be raising interest rates by half a percentage and implementing policies aimed at reducing inflation in the United States, which is at its highest level in 40 years.

> According to a transcript of the presser published by the Wall Street Journal, Powell blamed this inflation crisis, which is global, not on the proxy war in Ukraine and Western sanctions on Russia, but rather on U.S. workers supposedly making too much money.

> “Employers are having difficulties filling job openings, and wages are rising at the fastest pace in many years,” Powell complained.

> The Fed’s proposed solution: bring down wages.

> There are more job vacancies than there are unemployed people in the United States, as the economy recovers from the Covid-19 pandemic.

> Powell claimed this discrepancy between job vacancies and unemployment is due to high wages, which discourage workers from taking bad, low-paying jobs with few benefits, and therefore give them too much power.

So yes, apparently workers are getting a bit uppity and it's time to put them back into place.

One major input would be climate and resources. Much communication around the Mediterranean helped them. Saying "geography is destiny" is probably too strong, but the generally advanced cultures around the Med and Levant certainly played off of each other.
It's been playable on next (aka current) gen hardware for a while now. So PS5, Xbox series X, or a powerful PC can handle the game fine. I played after patch 1.5, which contained a lot of bug fixes, and the game was ok. Still minor glitches here and there, but nothing game breaking.
> Police would spawn right next to you if you messed up, for example.

I think that has been patched as of 1.2. The patch notes include:

> The game's infamously speedy police department have been told to take a chill pill, with an increase to their spawn radius for when a player commits a crime. Hopefully this means a whole squad will no longer appear behind your back.

And 1.21 had:

> It makes a long list of fixes, including for an issue where, after the player commits a crime on the roof of a building, NCPD officers would spawn behind the player's back.

That's not true anymore :) The ARC A750 sits between the Radeon RX 6600 and 6650 XT. The 6600 is a bit cheaper, but significantly slower. The 6650 XT is faster, but also more expensive. When (and if) Intel improves the driver more it will definitely be the better deal.

Nvidia has no card in this price segment that is remotely worth considering.

So while the initial reviews were negative, the ARC A750 does get recommended as an option now.

But: One has to be okay with the fact that picking the ARC is a bit of a gamble, needs a processor/platform that supports resizable bar, and under Linux the card is slower than the 6600 even with rBar. So there are definitely reasons to get the AMD cards instead, but the A750 is absolutely worth considering by now.

Record tracking pings independently of any solution and figure things out later, a 1x1 GIF can absorb an unlimited number of query strings, and S3 storage for log files is extremely economical. It doesn't matter which analytics solution you end up with, you'll always be throwing away data. IIRC even GA enterprise doesn't allowing pulling the original click log back out of it, only some form of sampling or another. Put a 1x1 GIF in an S3 bucket, create a CloudFront distribution and enable logging for it into another bucket. Tada, unlimited scale achieved for pennies.

Matomo and GA's trackers both allow sending the query to a URL of your choice. Treat the analytics system as an index over the logs, rather than treating the logs as an auxiliary artefact of the analytics system
That's not a statement from Apple. That's a statement from an Apple developer.

I’m not aware of any policy related to the decision to shut down the nuclear power plants which mandates the use of coal. Germany could very well decrease coal with a more ambitious green infrastructure plan. However the lack of such policy has nothing to do with nuclear power. All I know is that Germany is able, and has demonstrated that they can reduce coal and shut down all nuclear power plants.

Above it was stated that Germany replaced nuclear power with coal. We both agree this is false. So what are we arguing about now?
You should probably include Intel in that list, given that they acquired DEC's chip fabs in 1997[1], the lion's share of Alpha IP in 2001[2], and hundreds of Alpha engineers over the next few years[3].

I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re right, but I think it’s not all bad to only use auth from big tech - I don’t know if I trust most small companies to implement uname/password auth correctly. Most users recycle passwords too so a leak is really bad.

Yes, I had the same thought.

The Commission filed an administrative complaint against Intel Corp., the world’s leading computer chip maker, charging that the company had illegally used its dominant market position for a decade to stifle competition and strengthen its monopoly. The complaint alleged that Intel engaged in a course of conduct to shut out rivals’ competing microchips by cutting off their access to the marketplace. In particular, the complaint alleged that Intel unlawfully maintained its monopoly in relevant central processing unit, or CPU, markets, and sought to acquire a second monopoly in the relevant graphics markets, using a variety of unfair methods of competition. In August of 2010, Intel agreed to a settlement containing provisions that would undo the effects of Intel's past conduct, and prohibiting Intel from suppressing competition in the future.

I'm working off the hypothesis in the article:

> I wonder if RT work is a lot less predictable than rasterization workloads, making workload distribution harder. For example, some rays might hit a matte, opaque surface and terminate early. If one shader engine casts a batch of rays that all terminate early, it could end up with a lot less work even if it’s given the same number of rays to start with.

"Oh, the HA OS requires a VM? Let me create one. But now, my bluetooth isn't accessible to HA. Oh well let me try Core. Great, but now I can't do automatic updates, or restore from backups. Ugh fine. I'll do it manually.

Some integrations needs setting up APIs? Well the documentation doesn't explain much. Oh this one needs me to setup external access using their service or set up a cert. Man this is a lot of work for some automation to turn on my lights or connect to the services I need.

Fuck, let me just do this all in Google Home."

A big reason for the home UIs is to optimize for a different use case. I never use my home displays as a tablet and just use them for smart home stuff. An app launcher or generic tablet UX would just slow down a voice-forward interaction.

I think you may be right on the money. I read Bloomberg most days, and there's a through-line in a lot of their reporting on inflation of a "soft landing" to the inflation problem. What exactly this means seems to vary, although it is intended to mean something along the lines of "inflation goes back down without hurting the rest of the economy" for different ideas about what "hurting the economy" means.

The stock market seems to like the idea that we may have a "soft landing" scenario on our hands. Still, you may view this as investor optimism.
