Your focus on hardware misses the big picture. Atomic operations also restrict what the compiler can reorder.

Just because the simplest translation to assembly yields a data dependency on ARM et al doesn't mean the compiler is obligated to honor that.

The focus on standards is precisely because that's the only contract the compiler gives you. If you write code expecting to also get your target architecture's guarantees for free, you're writing software that is at best only incidentally correct until the next compiler update.

I look around this thread and I don't see a group of people trolling you - I genuinely think you're missing the point.
I take it as an opportunity to learn or discuss.

People "criticizing" might be wrong or right, but it points me to reflect and understand my choices. If I'm wrong I learned something, if I'm right I can test my skills to argument cleanly.
I hate to say it but give it a few months.
That will never happen though. Israel would become a minority Jewish nation.

On the other hand, if they just took the land and expelled the people, everybody would see it as genocide.
Rates were raised to combat inflation.
There's nothing of the sort in Paris. Religious and aristocratic monuments suffered tremendously between the Revolution and the early days of conservancy, but for the most part churches were given back to religious occupations once the revolutionary heat went away.
Depends on the size of the data.

If your dataset is below 1-2Tb it would cost you less than $200 in a decade to move to a newer HDD every 5 years.
The most intuitive descriptions I've heard is to imagine it like querying a continuous database. That is, it can give you responses from the space _between_ the data that it has memorized/stored/incorporated.

Caveat: I'm not super on top of AI stuff, but that description struck a chord with me.
I disagree with the second slightly, because we have a very limited amount of time in which to produce things that matter, and we spend the majority of that time producing code as developers. It better be important to us, or we should be doing something else.

Now, what we should realize about the code isn't the thing of value. It's what the code does and how it does it, that is the runtime output and the ability to express the intent to produce that output to a programmer who hasn't seen the output or the code before or in a long time.

Criticism is the best opportunity to improve those aspects of the code you write. So it should be of equal value to you as the lines of code the criticism is addressing.

Not all criticism is valid, even well-intentioned constructive criticism. Experience teaches you which critiques to accept and which to reject.

The only way to gain that experience is to solicit criticism from others, and give it to others.

No, we are not just our code, but our artifacts are a part of us, as we are a part of them. So we should be kind when giving criticism and gracious when receiving it. Because what we choose to do with our time matters.
What I mean by "regular" is you can go to any school or place and find it happening.

Bullying is regular in America. It happens in every school.

Police brutality/abuse is regular in America. It happens in every city with a large enough police force.

Pharmaceutical addiction is regular in America. It happens in every town.
> “If they had a choice, I would say, 90 percent of customers would say: ‘I’d just rather place my order with you.’”

I stopped reading at that point because they're conflating two very different ideas. It's one thing to have a QR menu, it's another thing to have a contactless ordering system. Most of the restaurants in my area have QR code menus, almost none of them have a contactless ordering system - the server takes your order. A lot of those same restaurants bring a payment device to your table instead of a bill so you can take care of your bill when you're ready.

It works great.
foobar (2002), and it's not OSS
You are not the worst picture of yourself ever taken. The picture does reflect a subset of you: at a particular place, at a particular time, taken from a particular angle. You are in the photo but the photo is not you. You can just take a better photo. People do this all the time, it's not a big deal. While it's normal to be embarrassed by a bad picture, it's also normal to chalk it off as bad lighting, bad timing, whatever.

That's what your code is. It's a picture of your thoughts at a particular time, constrained by the process of translation onto the medium on which it is being viewed. Some part of you is in there, but the thing itself is not you and it doesn't make sense to view it as a completely accurate representation of yourself. You got caught thinking with your mouth open, oops. Just try again.
Looks like a very good product for Django deployments. I know how hard it is to get such a platform stable.
It should not be trivial to buy hundreds of numbers.
> E.g., "blue is totally the wrong color for that."

That's a little of what I was getting at with some of the points above. Tons of criticism is just plain subjective. How do you evaluate the validity of someone else's subjective decision? The ultimate answer is that you can't if your response to it is to flip the table and leave the room.

>There is an issue with some people who are just not structurally fit for that sort of thing, where the slightest criticism can make them collapse into a heap of self-loathing and depression.

I agree, but I think that in and of itself is a bit of a different problem. A key aspect of the modern human condition is being able to deal with criticism. If the slightest bit of it will "make you collapse" then that's a strong indication that you need some professional help to learn how to deal and process things.

>Discretion and discernment are important so that you don't break a fellow human. So the flip side is that being a part of critique juries is also training in how to give criticism, which is an important skill in and of itself.

I don't disagree that teaching people how to criticize will help have that criticism be better structured, less aggressive, and more constructive overall, but the reality is that we can't expect everyone to have "the proper training". There absolutely were jurors that I had that were more about tearing you down than trying to help improve. Dealing with those people was a learning process in and of themselves.

>And programmers tend to spend a lot of time up in their heads. And they tend to be rather blunt about their opinions. Getting some time in the reviewer and reviewee seat is useful.

This points to the social nature of giving and receiving criticism. There needs to be emotional awareness from both perspectives. Programmers, as a generalization, tend to be more anti-social than other professions. A key aspect of social interactions is empathy; being able to see things from others' perspectives. When I look back at some of poorest delivered criticisms or responses to criticisms I've experienced in my professional career, they've come from the most anti-social developers.

Bluntness can have two interpretations, being straight to the point and/or not going into details. "This is poorly structured" is blunt, but doesn't attack or make things personal. "This is crap" is just as blunt, but has a far more negative connotation and interpretation to it. Neither is all that great of a criticism if they're not expanded on or explained.
I don't think the comic is particularly insightful, but here is a translation. I tried to stay close to the original, but you might say some things a bit differently in English:

Title: Dishonest

Could you explain this to me? Government and media are talking about low inflation, but what I am seeing is that prices are exploding.

...they lie, by deliberately calculating incorrectly or sometimes even skipping details.
The bad thing is,

it doesn't just happen here. Everywhere in the world all central banks seem to be doing it.

Through their dishonesty they give themselves more opportunities for influence..

...Balances are inflated..

...to trick a part of the population and to make them believe things would get better..

...while the standard of living is moving in another direction..

through highs and lows! You know that. You have to learn to talk to the subordinates to keep them optimistic...
What number would you not find suspicious?
What good reasons? Kim Jung Un can send boats with gold bars. Meanwhile I can't send money without the bank asking me 'what ya gonna do with "your" money little friend?'

Just have the money in escrow for 30 days or whatever if fraud is a concern.

It is all about messing with us and showing who is in charge.
No but that's true of any lock...
I'm fine with that as long as the definition of terrorism is objective and not ideological/political. What objective definition of state terrorism applies to Palestine but not the state of Israel?

I used lulu.com to print a copy of OnLisp [1]

What I got was one of the best bound paperback books I've ever held.

<rant>
I wish all publishers would just sell eBooks (and publish settings like "optimal paper size") so that I could print my own copy using a service like lulu. One of my biggest gripes with hardcopy books nowadays is that the paper stock they use is so thin that the ink on the other side of the page shows through. Lulu let's you choose the paper stock. I really can't say enough about how happy I was with the quality of the printed book lulu sent me.

Meaning people in SV are subject to the same cognitive biases as everyone? Knowing how to say Dunning-Kruger doesn’t exempt one from it’s effects, right? The paper didn’t show less skilled people estimating their abilities to be higher than skilled people, it only showed a self eval / skill curve that has a slope less than 1.
I remember using Mathematical Thinking [0] for Concepts of Mathematics (21-128) which is also a great book!

Some day browsers will implement native data binding with reactivity and the current dark ages of front end development will end.
It's less about PDFs specifically and more about normalizing the behavior where people just scan QR codes off stickers and then download and execute whatever arbitrary file the page wants to serve them.
Google will absolutely not sell Waymo after such an incredibly steep investment.
The loan amount, however, will stay contant.

Your pay goes up. It just goes up 4% per year, while inflation goes up 10%. This does mean your loan becomes 4% "less" per year. It's just Big Macs go up 6%, making your pay worth less Big Macs. But your pay still becomes worth more loan repayments. The big increase only applies to new loans.

I would also like to point out that at 4% per year pay increases, houses become worth that amount less per year, for the same dollar amount. That means they "drop" 20% in price over 5 years.

Postgres getting good updates at slow but steady pace over many decades is really impressive.
First, you need to be able to critically evaluate the criticism.

Incorrect code is incorrect. There should be no ego there. Either in pointing it out or in correcting it. It could be incorrect due to many reasons: faulty assumptions, misunderstood requirements, etc. It's important for people on both sides to realize this is a mistake and they happen. Any single mistake is not a condemnation of an entire person. Let he who has not crashed prod throw the first stone and all that.

Then there is code that is technically correct but needs to be altered for other reasons. What those reasons are and how they are approached are important.

If it's a pure styling issue, first hopefully you have a linter that handles all of that. But if you don't, don't sweat the change. Having code look uniform is important. How they choose to address this matters more. The implication that people who use anything but "the chosen style" are inferior is a bad way to approach the issue. It's simple enough to say "We do it like this here for consistency".

If it's matter of altering patterns or what not, that could be a discussion. Did you do MVC in an MVVM shop? Did you adhere to neither? Do you prefer delegates to closures? Stored procedures vs inline SQL? Any of the vices to any of the versas. In this one, you can make your case. Maybe you have the right idea. Maybe your approach is better for this project. Maybe you win the hearts and minds. Maybe you don't. This you have to let go. And once again, it's important that no one approaches it from the perspective of "idiots do it the other way".

Basically, as long as they are criticizing the product and not you, it's fine. You aren't perfect. No one expects you to be. That's why we have reviews.
Thanks for the encouragement! It's crazy days...
I get the point you're trying to make - but the above itself such a pat counterargument. If we can even call it that. A combination of extreme hyperbole an straw-man attack, basically, laced with seductively sweet soundbites. Even worse than the standards of the field you're attacking.
The US as a whole can get richer while the average citizen gets poorer through the power of inequality.
One important thing is (at least a few years back) we realised that HDDs fail at an alarming rate (> 80%) if you disconnect them and leave them for a few years. Either that or someone brought a gamma ray source through our lab. Keeping the disks hot was a different story though.
The Epoch of the Child
> Why would someone want to detach their self worth from what they do

What you are doing is a higher goal than a PR, and detaching yourself from the minor details allows you to achieve this with greater flexibility and skill in the long term.

You have to take steps back and see subsequent bigger pictures and see what you’re doing within the context of a product, a job, a pattern of self-improvement, a fulfilling life.
You need to keep a cup underneath the spout! So you absolutely have to walk to it first. Otherwise it will just pour the chai down the drain.
Because by training it they created something new.

I don't mind just making a point.

But I don't think they mind. I don't believe that this type of model training is able to be bleeding edge which should guarantee that openai has enough motivation to continue the development and having a healthy competition
We have an LGD on our hobby farm and figuring out socialization is really hard. Despite raising her in the barn among goats, I did give her a fair amount of affection and now she is very people-motivated. What I realize now is that if you want the dog to be an employee then you must treat the dog like an employee. What makes this difficult is withholding the human desire/instinct to treat the dog like a pet. This is especially hard when friends and family come over and want to pet the big fluffy dog - telling them that they can't makes you seem like a monster.
Interesting. I'd put this more down to taste but you might be right.

I tend to prefer films like this and I think there are plenty of "modern" examples. I do find some older films too slow paced, but I think its only when it's coupled with weaker writing and atmosphere building. In Alien I find the pacing works for the content and I assume it was a conscious decision, and that's why I think it holds up. But I'm not an expert on this stuff so I could be quite wrong here.
That list seems very reasonable. All of those things are possible (and done). I walked into one store a few years ago. They matched me to my phone and started sending me text messages in the store for discounts on different floors (and that was 15 years ago). If there is a way to grift a bit of extra cash. There will be someone willing to code it up.

For me in this case it is readability. My eyes decided in the past couple of years to go from 20/20 to can not read small print randomly anymore. Especially if I have to switch from dark room to bright phone (most restaurants). It seems okish if I am already in a bright area.

Ron DeSantis debuts presidential bid in a glitch-ridden Twitter 'disaster'
From the article:

It was supposed to be a historic moment for Twitter: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis would smoothly kick off his presidential candidacy on the social media platform.

An uninterrupted conversation between DeSantis and Twitter CEO Elon Musk would be live-streamed on Twitter Spaces to mark the event.

But instead, the live audio event was beset with technical malfunctions. After some 20 minutes of crashing and echoing and chaos, it abruptly ended.

Why would we do QR code payments in a world where NFC payment flows exist and are well established?

Does ERP really need customisation? That seems to be a big cost driver as well as causing lock-in.
Saying that languages compete isn’t the same thing as saying one language is objectively better than another. It just means that people might consider both options and weigh up the pros and cons of both. When people say that companies compete, they aren’t saying that one is objectively better than another, if anything it’s the opposite
Being a Zionist and supporting settlers are not mutual. Being a Zionist is simply supporting a Jewish state not everything the government does.
Seems there's a bit of a "thin white line" phenomenon going on. It also happens in the US but perhaps not quite as strong.
Have you tried watching at 1.25x in these circumstances? I find it helps when exercising or otherwise stressed.
This is a brilliant move. The more we're all talking about how scary AI is, how it needs regulation, etc, the less we are all talking about IP issues.

E.g. how many stack overflow posts does it take to make LLMs as good as they are at programming? All the IP of the information age is just going to be hoovered up and resold to the very people who created it?
Steam! It will hit 20 years this September.

Also some games are crazy old and still developed Dwarf fortress is 2006 (almost 20 years old), Open TTD is 19 years old, probably some others as well.
The maximum tape seek time is around a couple of minutes. The average seek time is about half of that, i.e. around 1 minute (these example values are valid for LTO-7).

These seek times are seldom a problem. If one would keep on HDDs as much data as it is normally kept on tapes, i.e. at least a few hundred terabytes, one would have the same slow seek times as someone would have to plug and unplug external HDDs, unless the storage would belong to a very large company that could afford the high costs of keeping online many HDDs.

As an individual user, I keep in my computer, on an SSD, an index with the content of all tapes. When I need some file, I get it in at most 5 minutes, which includes starting the tape drive, going to a cabinet and taking the tape from a shelf, inserting it in the drive and waiting for the seek and copy operations.

This is perfectly acceptable, because I do not need files from the tapes every day. Storing the data on external HDDs would not reduce the time wasted with manual operations, it would be much less reliable and it would be much more expensive for great amounts of data.

The sequential transfer speed of tapes is greater than that of HDDs. Therefore, if after a seek you copy large files, e.g. a movie in BluRay format, the whole seek + copy operation takes less than from a HDD.
And yet small businesses in the EU are still getting caught up in it.
Survivorship benefits are paid to survivors of a dead loved one. It sounds like OP is alleging that Palestinians can get paid for killing Israeli children. Those are very different ideas, I'm curious why you think that's a survivorship program.

The UN and Geneva Convention define "combatant" and "non-combatant". Being uniformed is merely the ethical thing to do. Combatants also don't necessarily need to be armed, like in the case of spotters who have killed or mamed far more people than most folks realize, including civilians.
Reading this has made me unreasonably angry.
There are a lot of variables.

I print them myself and take them to FedEx to do the binding. Letter size/A4, though, result in big books and a lot of paper. So I wrote a script that produces a new PDF and reorders the pages. In the new PDF, you have two pages per side of paper (4 pages per sheet). The reordering is done so that FedEx can cut the sheet right in the middle, and put the left half on top of the right half to get the usual ordering. Then they just bind it.

Not counting the cost of my paper, they charge about $11 (probably can get it a bit cheaper but I add some extras in the service when I bind them).
They have specific laws that BAN them from giving detailed reasons for why they froze your accounts. Giving you a reason, or sometimes even hinting that there might be a problem, would be classified as "tipping off", which is a federal crime and can land even the lowliest finance worker in jail.

People need to read up on AML (anti-money laundering) laws. They are a bit insane.

Know them because I've worked in regulated financial companies for years and have had to do the mandatory training about a dozen times.

It should be (and, for the most part, is, modulo occasional 0-days) safe for regular users to visit random urls on their mobile phones, even if they trigger a download. If that isn't the case, we have failed as developers.
Leaving Sap was a good idea, but i'm pretty sure replacing Sap by oracle ERP wasn't. Especially, it seems it's one to one in functionalities?

The better idea is to take a more modular ERP imho, and slowly transition.
I look forward to seeing some benchmarks. Especially to see the effect of the SIMD optimizations.

Change is unreasonably effective at getting differences. I'm personally of the opinion that cutting sugar is a good idea. That said, I can't discount that anyone that crests the motivational hump to make a change, is also as likely to push through in other ways, as well.
Given that the stable, dev, beta, and nightly logos used to basically just be palette swaps, they're supposed to be. PLus, "dev" firefox is literally the same version of Firefox as stable, but with a few about:config flags set differently by default. It's not even a different release version =)
I understand that but it's frustrating. The only reason drives are as expensive as they are is due to a lack of competition. There is no way they cost anywhere near $3000 to build.
Actually I had that happen to me in Dubai last year. They wanted me to order through the website, I put my order in and then a card payment form came up. I didn't have any internationally-accepted cards back then so I had to order through the server to be able to pay cash. Oh and on top of that they didn't have any real drinks, only bottled soft drinks at 3x the grocery store prices.

I imagine most of the business in such places comes from delivery so they don't care much about dine-in guests.
That sounds right to me, yeah.
Wikipedia agrees with the activity history PyPI themselves posted in TFA and indicates the index at its original home under python.org went live in November 2002, and PEP 301 was posted with present-tense descriptions of the URL where the index was available on 11/8/2002. But,
