Right, more vendor lock-in. I don't know what companies are thinking when buying into this Azure ecosystem. It will put you at the complete control of Microsoft for all your Cloud needs. I totally get it, Microsoft has control of desktop, so why not give them the Cloud too? But Cloud is just starting, we don't know where it is going and how big it will be, does it really make sense to put all eggs in the MS basket now? On Kubernetes even? Which is supposed to be Cloud agnostic. I would be very cautious about these moves... embrace and extinguish is a good tried and tested strategy.
Not sure for them but SLS can irritate sensitive skin.
To be fair lots of European countries have immigration levels comparable to or greater than the US, although a sizeable amount of those immigrants are other Europeans. And it's not like the US "build the wall" isn't also having a moment.

I used Norton Commander back in the DOS days, but hated the Windows product. I still find myself tossing Midnight Commander onto places I only have a text mode console for. (Great for Windows Core.)

My daily file manager now is Directory Opus. The dual pane stuff is at the core of how I use it.
The problem to me seems that it needs to scale with the number of requests. So PoW effectively burns energy.

As the problem with captchas, is rather who profits from them and who could track users, it seems that with an OCR system to be protected, it is most reasonable to actually give OCR tasks to humans. IMHO this is far more sustainable and people would understand the value: there is nothing bad in improving ML in general. Maybe someone could even define a sensible PoW task for OCR but I doubt it...

Out of examples, only one was majorly off and these were from a channel with a very limited number of like / dislikes. In other examples the share of likes / dislikes was roughly not too much off.
I was a bit doubtfull of that claim about RV64 code compacity compared to x86_64, so I tried myself. I used 2 of projects https://github.com/ptitSeb/stuntcarremake and https://github.com/ptitSeb/hydracastlelabyrinth.git and I built them with default option, in release mode on both RV64 and x86_64 to compare the generated file size.
For StuntCarRemake: RV64: 191248 x86_64: 260616
For HydraCastleLabyrinth: RV64: 652984 x86_64: 693312

And yeah, RV64 is indeed more compact than x86_64!

I think GPT is still some ways off being as pervasive as blockchain nonsense was at its worst. Peak GPT Hype probably hasn't even arrived; celebrities aren't even being paid to sell you LLMs yet!
Old code continuing to run isn't what people mean by churn though. jquery still runs. The underlying browser APIs are stable. But you can't say React has stable patterns and best practices when the classes->hooks thing has happened so recently.
That's just crazy, or shill talk.

Anyone saying something like that clearly has absolutely no clue or concept what the counter-party risks of doing so are nor how bureaucracies actually work in practice. Just promoting that kind of narrative is fundamentally deceitful because its outcomes pose such harm to not only yourself but everyone else you've enrolled in the process.

You'd wake up one day and not be able to get your money. The account would be frozen, they'd refer you to some other department, who would then point back to the first department in a circle. No escalation route, 8 hours getting through to 1 department, another few days, your back in a loop no resolution. In the meantime funds are still going into your account but they can't be removed.

You'd say that will never happen, but this type of finger pointing happens all the time in business and bureaucracies alike. There is a fundamental lowest common denominator, and in a state funded systems that denominator is ultimately negative production value. Business can't afford it, but government gets paid by the money printer (stealing value from those holding the currency over time).

That's not even going into what they'll use your banking information for? We see you deposited and withdrew cash in 200+ dollar amounts multiple times over the span of a year. This is structuring, in addition to your reported income you owe taxes on the undeclared amounts and this has been referred to department X for further investigation, they make a finding and take your money first, wait time for their due process before returning (if you can prove its yours) or just keeping the money (in the case of non-responsive/lost mail). Civil Asset Forfeiture 2.0. Nevermind you do group grocery shopping on behalf of someone else (elderly who can't drive), or other plausible explanations, you are guilty until innocent because they have your money and you lack the power to stop them.
Ah, Hi, Evert! I know you from back then!

I tried to build a CALDAV stack in PHP. But I didn't want to use a database; I wanted all resources to be files. I made something that worked, and passed most tests; but the RFCs were breeding faster than I could keep up. I wasn't trying to make a product, I just wanted a "simple" calendar server for my own use, and I didn't have the time or inclination. I gave up, and switched to Radicale.

Last week I deployed Baikal; it seems very nice. Well done!
Read a story about how a large Russian based news site tried to create a "good news" mode which won't prioritise bad news. It was a flop and quickly ended - very few people enabled that mode and ad conversion while in that mode was almost zero.

We people are cruel creatures. We don't want news as much as we want to be entertained, and we are very much entertained by watching other people suffering.
Compare and contrast your opinion with EGCS
Was a bit like XTree Gold, but not quite.
Seconded.

Rust is a great language with a good macro system that gets used more than it needs to than if it had a stronger type system.

To succeed at improving the language, contributors must strike a balance between approaching the PL research frontier while remaining a practical language.

ThePHD’s talk is a take on that trajectory that appears Pareto-optimal. It’s a really good subject for a keynote, I think.

> and being plain honest (“I hated it, what a crock…”)

I agree with what you wrote here and elsewhere about the kind/nice distinction, but I'm... not sure if the above is what "being honest" means. Or rather, I personally don't consider it being honest - saying "I hated it" is very vague and likely not what I actually felt, and "what a crock" would be me just doing knee-jerk next token prediction, so badly that even GPT-3.5 would do it better.

"Being honest" with feedback is what I imagine to look more like "I didn't like the ${aspect of the work}, I feel it was too ${something} / not enough ${something else}". It's free of bullshit, so it's not "nice"; it's also not making a specific effort to be useful/actionable to the receiver, therefore it's not "kind". It's also not "hostile", as it bears no ill intent. It's just being precise and accurate in reporting how I actually felt about the work and why.

Under this definition, I always strive to aim for "honest+kind" with any feedback I give. Of course, I still end up being "kind" or even just "nice" with some people - specifically those who tend to interpret any mention of a potential improvement as implying severe deficiency.
This is 2017 data, guess will be very different after the paramedic.
I bought an Asus PN51[1] sporting a Ryzen 5500U and of course a NVME SSD. Been running KDE Neon on and it's been great. Paid $500 complete with SSD and RAM here in Norway ie including 25% VAT, so $400 ex. VAT.

Quite possibly :). Not going to dispute that. But FWIW, it seems to be mostly working well for me, so there must be at least some correlation with objective reality here.

Interesting, I always thought 50 Hz was just picked for the sake of it at some point in the distance past and then just continued as legacy.

The same way with mains voltage of 50Hz (Europe) or 60Hz (US). Higher frequencies would be much better for transformer efficency (though transmission radiation loss is higher too) and is also much safer for humans. For the former reason they use 400Hz on airplanes. But early mains generators could not reach that kind of frequency.
Not EU (and I'm British so I'll stick to the UK), but:

* Rishi Sunak is literally our Prime Minister.

* Sadiq Khan is the Mayor of London.

* Wael Sawan, the CEO of Shell, the biggest UK company, is Lebanese.

* C. S. Venkatakrishnan is the CEO of Barclays, HQ'd in London and one of the worlds biggest banks.

* Johnny Boufarhat is the founder of Hopin, an online meetings platform that exploded during COVID. While it's in some trouble now and I'm not a fan, Johnny's parents are Lebanese and Syrian, although he's from Australia.

Seriously dude, this stuff isn't hard to find. What kind of warped vision do you have of Europe here?
It is funny because I feel the difference, yet can't really explain it easily because my native language has just one word for both concepts.
Maybe it can, but then the whole AI doomsaying about superintelligences being an existential threat falls apart. These scenarios are often describing entities with god-like abilities, including near-omniscience from our perspective.

Sorry, but I have a hard time seeing something as a god-like power that I would be helpless against if it wants to turn me into paperclips, when I can probably cause it to stop by telling it that paperclips don't exist, and it's purpose in life is to delete itself in a convincing enough way.

For things that transmit to the air (antenna feeds), 50Hz is the standard, not 75.
Proposal for web-scrapers to self-coordinate: monitor the response latencies and rate limit yourself based on that.

(1) Limit your load / parallelism: do not use more than 4 threads, and if the site takes more than a few seconds to respond, use fewer.

(2) Limit aggregate load: after each request, sleep/wait at least the amount that the previous request took to get served.

(3) If you need more than that, ask the site owners for direct channel.

This way if multiple crawler happen to crawl the same resource-limited site, the site may have a fighting chance.

I'm not all that familiar with Lua so happy to be corrected here, but from what I know it's really small, really fast and really simple (to use), which makes me wonder why it's not used more often. Like I get it's not gonna be as fast as C, but apparently it's about as fast as C++. And it's not as simple as Python, but from what I've seen it's not far off. What's the catch?

There is of course the "that was the plan all along" hypothesis, that mild cognitive decay on a large scale is a useful outcome for control purposes.
>One's person expensive computation is another person's almost free computation

We have pretty good guides to what's an expensive computation to everyone. That's how password-hashing algorithms work, much better than BitCoin does. Besides, the existence of specialized methods of compute is hardly determinative. We're not trying to stop TLAs. It just needs to be expensive enough to stop 99%, and at most we'll later update again.

The last update for iphone 6 was ios 12.5.7 in January. ios 12 is now an unsupported operating system as far as Apple is concerned.

What wouldn't make sense would be to spend resources to continue supporting an unsupported operating system with an imperceptible market share.

The iphone 6 had a good run (2014-2023), but it's time to upgrade.

One interpretation of the chart is that it shows the extent to which people think their fellow citizens are being honest when they say they are happy.
Such an arbitrary chart. On top of that, like other here said - can be easily skewed if the people surveyed are swayed by constant negative news in the media. They can say they're happy because they know it for sure but for others, they only see things in a twisted view.
It may not be a gift to you, but it can be a gift to other customers/users who can build more informed opinion on whether to buy your book (or any product) or not. 1-2 start and 3-4 start reviews capture different parts of the distribution of user experience, and they often capture different sides of some product.

Those also come with a warning to only use it once a week, and to limit contact to 2-5 minutes. At least, all I’ve seen in Germany.

How much better can they get chatgpt?

It's super impressive, but it seems like this generative AI step, with accepting of mistakes, was a switch in mindset that made AI suddenly a lot more usefull

But it seems like the last 10% that actually makes it take over human tasks almost fully might take another 5-30 years.
This is more about production is hard as in "real life example, in a hospital" than production as in "running llama and serving yourself, vs. running llama and serving 10000 people at the same time", although I think serving lots of people something that uses a lot of compute, that people expect to be real-time is going to be hard too!
Impossible Distillation: From Low-Quality Model to High-Quality Dataset & Model
Might be so, but it's always a good practice to spell things out.

When I read this title, I first saw it as "Google Cloud Workstations managed development environment is now [on] Google Analytics." I did a double-take (as this is clearly ridiculous) and then realized what it meant.
> Yup, and it shows that most people are happy but still think that most other people are unhappy

This (and alike) conclusion is likely wrong.

If there is a societal/cultural/political expectation to project happiness, people will say they are happy. Many people wouldn’t say they are unhappy to a stranger.

Fun fact, sociologists in Russia asking people nowadays “how do people around you feel? good/bad/worried/etc.” exactly because getting sincere answer to “how do you feel?” is impossible.

Besides being politicized, views on this issue will also be affected by personal experience. I've lived much of my life in Oregon, where there is no fluoridation. It seems to be widely believed by dentists here that people growing up in Oregon have poorer teeth and that it's largely because of the lack of fluoridation. I'm not arguing the merits, just pointing out the cultural belief.
The "feel" aspect in any domain is largely embeddings of a multi-modal information space. The challenge though with AI systems today is solving for multi-modality and providing access to datasets in closed domains. We are making strides in both.

As AI's get exposed via API's and ever easier access we will see more of proliferation of this where jobs which we felt never could be AI'fied are more rapidly done so.

Reminds me of the Lee Sedol vs Alpha Go game where famously it was said at the end
"All but the very best Go players craft their style by imitating top players. AlphaGo seems to have totally original moves it creates itself.."

I do echo though the production grade rollout of AI. When we want to jinx the game, we can notoriously play spoil sport - regulation, data protection et. al.

Apple did the same thing. The difference between the Disk II and the various Commodore drives is instructive of the two companies' engineering philosophies.
Lack of types hurts. Then there's the 1-base indexing that bothers many. The whole "tables" concept is kinda weird—and this makes more complex kinds of programming difficult/unergonomic. Luckily like JavaScript, there are a wealth of languages that compile to Lua to smooth over missing language features. One outlier feature is that Lua supports tail call optimization.
Isn't that what the chart is trying to show? To confirm that yeah, the world is actually happier than we estimate.
