In the realm of U.S. politics, corporate America usually finds alignment with one or both major parties when it comes to policies that benefit their interests. However, there is a noticeable exception when it comes to China. Economic imperatives are driving a continuous flow of CEOs towards China, while the real hindrance to growth lies within Washington. Recent visits by Elon Musk and Jamie Dimon underscore the intertwined nature of the U.S. and China, as prominent CEOs express their commitment to supporting the Chinese people. Despite geopolitical tensions and concerns over national security risks, China remains a crucial market for multinational corporations, offering significant growth opportunities. As politicians set the rules and regulations, corporate America navigates the complex landscape of U.S.-China relations, with CEOs caught between economic allure and political realities.
The article discusses the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) like GPT-4 in Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), particularly in generating descriptions of software behavior in Gherkin, a domain-specific language. By facilitating clear communication among all stakeholders, BDD with Gherkin allows the creation of precise, executable specifications of an application’s behavior. The integration of LLMs in this process accelerates business analysis and software testing in agile methodologies.

"DNS names aren't supposed to be secret" is not a good faith argument. It's not your argument: it is a popular trope of DNSSEC advocates. I don't mean to imply anything about you personally --- you're an anonymous abstraction to me, so there's nothing I could reasonably say about you as a person. But the argument you're making is what it is, and I've characterized it, I believe, accurately.

I doubt that's it. That may help with "whow, shiny colors!" impressions, but I think that pcs just source lower quality panels.

I have a 2012 unibody MBP with a matte screen (the last model before the retina line). That thing looks so much better than my 2021 HP EliteBook it's not even funny. Sure, the HP has higher resolution (1920x1080 vs 1680x1050), but the viewing angles are poor (it's a 14" panel, but there is no single position from which you can see it completely OK, the colors always change when you move the slightest). The blacks are a darkish grey. The reds are actually orange. This wasn't a cheap pc, either. It also has the 8 bit panel. Some SKUs only have dim, 6 bit ones. It cost almost as much as a 14" M1 when my company bought it (it's a work laptop, I would never have bought this crap with my own cash). The only other metric except from resolution by which it beats that 11 yo macbook is that it's very bright, to the point of being actually usable outside if the sun doesn't shine directly on it.

There are many PCs with glossy coating. We also have a different model of elitebooks at work that have those (x360 line). That's an atrocious shitshow. Except for a completely dark room, you'll always see some random reflection instead of the actual screen content. My 2013 retina MBP does better outside than these poor excuses for a panel do inside.

There are PCs that somehow do manage to look decent. A friend's Dell XPS comes to mind, though it doesn't look as good as an MBP. But these seem to be the exception rather than the rule.
No idea what the overall timeline would look like, but I don't see how Reddit's current trajectory leads to any play other than hiring mods for the top N subreddits (which they probably have reams of data showing are responsible for a huge percentage of their ad impressions) and making the rest read-only. A bunch of subreddits have already explicitly announced that they're shutting down if they can't use third-party apps to moderate, there have been many more general complaints about the inadequacy of the official moderation tools, and it seems like the company simply doesn't care.
I definitely appreciate the technical privacy focus here and I’m curious if that is the whole purpose here.

Micro SD capacities are crazy
MicroSD cards with a capacity of 1 TB are readily available. Their dimensions are 15mm x 11mm x 1mm.

If we built 3.5” hard drives with as much information density, a single standard 3.5” drive (5.75in x 4in x 2cm) would hold close to 2 000 TB!

Isn’t that insane? (The price wouldn’t be too shabby too, at close to $100k per drive)

I'm not just linking it as a proof, I now work at Intel and collaborate with Microsoft on bringing new platform technologies to life. I'm currently involved in VNNI and hybrid core scheduling KPIs. OpenVINO allows developers to target execution engines on client based on their needs and CPU is a well supported engine for lightweight inferencing that is latency sensitive.

Matmuls (FMAC especially) did evolve as a SIMD workload on CPUs but it's still forcing vector execution on cores designed around scalar workloads - you just have to be mindful of tradeoffs between executing a bunch of AVX/VNNI instructions for inferencing vs setting up a GPU/VPU/IPU context and performing that inference asynchronously.

AFAIK, ARM is also interested in use of NEON/SIMD co-processors as low latency inference engines.

Microsoft and Intel have a lot of interesting stuff in the works for AI compute (as I'm sure so do Apple, Nvidia and to a lesser extend AMD).

I was a horrible college student. I came to play sports and being smart enough to never need to actually study I was completely unprepared for what was required to be a good student in college. I also didn't like to go to class, engineering classes at my uni started at 0800 and were done before noon, I'm a night owl so dragging my ass to class at 8am was painful -if it was 8pm I probably would have been a rock start. I also learned that if I went to class and did the minimum amount of studying I did very well -of course I didn't like doing the minimum amount of studying either.

The funny thing now that I'm 30+ years out of college, college is stupid easy. I try to take a class or two every year, just to learn things that interest me. These are normal college classes filled with people that could be my children and nothing has changed, all the young people sit in class like they are being forced to be there, they don't ask questions and to me it seems like they are totally uninterested in the subject matter. Of course as the older student I ask lots of questions and challenge the instructor if they are teaching outdated bullshit, which is more often than you'd think, I know the other students hate me because I blow the curve but now that I'm way separated from college life learning is a lot more fun.

It doesn't even need to be (pseudo-) random. You can trace a spiral pattern out from the origin like so: 1 vertical up, turn right, 1 horizontal right, turn down, 2 vertical down, turn left, 2 horizontal left, turn up, 3 vertical up, turn right, 3 horizontal right, turn down, etc. The resulting spiral pattern will never repeat.

I'm using "Hyper + ijkl" in X11 and it works in every app, not just Emacs. Basically I made a custom .xkb file which does send the actual arrow keys code when "Hyper + ijkl" is pressed. It works in drop down menus, in terminal, anywhere.

It's like pressing the arrow keys.

And it works fine with shift, for as far as any app are concerned they're only seeing "shift + arrow key(s)".

It would work with Super too.

I'll find some part of the .xkb file and paste them here in a few moments.

Why did you have to run an Apple advertisement in a topic dedicated to a laptop that very much isn't for Apple audience?

There's plenty of laptops with better and different screens, including several OLED ones that run at smoother refresh and produce much more vibrant and less eye painful colors. The fact that you haven't seen them isn't a testament of Apple skill, it's just a reflection of you not walking into anything that's not an Apple store.
Those could be add and rm, if rm by default didn't remove the working file.

Git should eliminate the following redundant naming: stage, cache, index all refer to the same thing.

If I want to diff between the working copy and the stage, why isn't it "git diff --stage", but "git dif --cached"?

A cache is something for fast lookup; the index isn't a cache; it's the permanent record of stuff in version control that will become a commit.

When you invalidate a cache entry, the semantics is unaffected, only speed of access. Removing from a git index is semantically significant.

Medicine is a pretty high stakes career. You mess up and people can die. In radiology, we are expected to be near perfect (not miss important findings however subtle they might be) and make the right calls. This is difficult to do even with the training we have had. Part of it is just dealing with uncertainties. Did I make the right calls? Did I miss something subtle but important that might harm the patient - such as a subtle small nodule that 2 years later can become metastatic cancer? If so, am I going to get sued? You do that with every case, none which pay well at all. Medicare is the largest insurer in America and they pay around 4-5$ for a chest x ray or a wrist x ray or whatever joint x ray. A CT be it a cancer staging ct or trauma ct is valued at 40$. It can take a while to read if you really do your due diligence…meaning you compare to the past CTs to see how things have progressed, read history, take your time looking at the images. So it should take half an hour to read. Often times the prior imaging and clinical history isn’t even available. And if you work at big academic centers you are forced to read quickly.

No physicians want to do a bad job but we are just cogs in wheels in the medical industry complex.
I agree with everything you wrote.

Also, things seem to be converging towards simplicity in a positive way, comparing e.g. Vite to Webpack.

But without any disagreement:
the churn is real.

Not upgrading is only an option if you

1) are sure you don't run vulnerable code on a server (e.g. through SSR) - if any code is public-facing, ignoring most "npm audit" reports ceases to be an option.
2) don't need new packages to change your build setup that are significantly newer than your previous setup.

To repeat, I don't disagree and I prefer the spirit of your comment to my critique.

Almost all of the time it is a good idea to settle on versions and evaluate when upgrading is worth it.

Update costs can also vary a lot depending on the project.

In other words, preserving behavior while fixing dependency conflicts, breaking changes etc after updating major versions.

If one avoids to do clever stuff with the bundler and if the project requirements are simple, it can be easy upgrade or even swap tools (e.g. Webpack for Vite).

This rings very true for me, bravo:

I've gone through more swollen LiPo pouch batteries at my CA desert property than I can count, fortunately none have caught fire.

The cheap ZTE devices in particular seem especially bad at keeping the thermals within a safe range. Even with a 100% full battery they'll let the electrolyte boil if left plugged in for their charging logic to do as it wishes in a hot environment.

What's so frustrating is practically every consumer electronics device seems to now have some form of LiPo pouch cells in them. I wish it were normal for manufacturers to offer chunkier variants using NiMH AA/AAA cells to consumers. Instead I've been resorting to "industrial" stuff having no battery at all like the Gl-Inet X300B [0] I eventually ended up with.

For a while I used a hacked together pack of four NiMH AAs with a battery board stolen from the LiPo on a ZTE/AT&T hotspot that kept swelling its pack. The battery board kept the device happy enough to believe it had the proper LiPo connected. The now external AAs stayed charged more-or-less, and didn't care how hot the ambient temps got through summer. But it was a sprawling mess of wires, soldered AAs arranged like an 80s-era RC-12L saddle-pack, kept ~together with Duck tape.

> in 15 years, nobody looked at the release notes and thought to make a change?

What change could have been made? Package managers can't "just" remove it as that would break people's scripts, and adding their own warning message leaves us where we are now. I suppose a package-message could be added, but I don't think anyone expected that [ef]grep would start printing warning messages all of the sudden – lots of things are "deprecated" but still work and will likely continue to work for decades to come – so why bother?
I previously read here that you should not let them access your bank accounts, either, because they can somehow freeze them too. Is that true?
Depending on your placement, you might. I.e. If my biggest competitor is ahead of me in order, the team will radio me their split times and finish times and tell me exactly the finish time I need to be second behind them. Again, the system intentionally put champions up front, so everybody behind them knew the champions finish time. It was a self reinforcing system :-/
Maybe the problem is that they do not have jurisdiction to regulate these organizations, so the best they can do is issue warnings.
