The idea that our brains are hard wired for basic concepts is almost synonomous with a self-limiting belief.

It's the same experience here for those kinds as well. Part of the problem is that I'm on the US west coast, so most of the wood in our stores is probably somewhere from the PNW and thus from more or less the same lumber companies no matter the kind.
Considering we move away from natural language whenever we have the chance to do so (many early formal languages were meant to target the humans who would in turn program computers!), I don't think this is really the case except for extremely trivial cases.

Natural languages are terrible programming languages for many of the same reasons programming languages are terrible natural languages.
New construction homes are almost universally Value of Land + Cost to build structure + ~10%. The supply/demand aspect of new construction cost only factor into the value of the land, and how increased demand can cause increased labor/material costs.

It's not like real estate developers pull numbers out of a hat to determine how much to charge. Most areas will have several major developers in direct competition to attract new home buyers, and if their costs every get out of hand people will just start buying land and managing the build themselves.

V100 GPUs are from 2017, so it's more than two years. A100 already appeared there years ago, btw.

In most cases, it's better to bring attention to when something is not normal and/or have a faded indicator. That indicator matters because different programs have different conventions about how stuff gets saved, and you want users to not second guess your conventions.

Unfortunately "awk -F," (field separator of comma) doesn't work with most real CSV files, because of quoted fields, commas in fields, and (less frequently) multiline fields. My GoAWK implementation has a CSV mode activated with "goawk -i csv" (input mode CSV) and some other CSV features that properly handle quoted and multiline fields: https://benhoyt.com/writings/goawk-csv/

The frawk tool (written in Rust) also supports this.

Interestingly, Brian Kernighan is currently updating the book "The AWK Programming Language" for a second edition (I'm one of the technical reviewers), and Gawk and awk are adding a "--csv" option for this purpose. So real CSV mode is coming to an AWK near you soon!
Query builders are generally not intended for developers to build "static" queries, but to build dynamic queries programmatically while being safe (eg. from SQL injection) based on dynamic data, often with user inputs, the likes from ASTs from parsed user input in query fields.
Please note that the GPLv2 has the requirement that users be able to modify and reinstall the GPLed software. "Tivoisation" isn't what Tivo actually did and both the GPLv2 and GPLv3 ban "Tivoisation" but allow what Tivo actually did. "Tivoisation" as it is popularly known refers to blocking the running of modified GPL code, while what Tivo actually did was block running their proprietary software (their UI etc) on top of modified GPL code (here Linux). Both GPL versions block the former while allowing the latter. At least according to Software Freedom Conservancy.

I use TypeORM for Node.js, and it's extremely frustrating and littered with bugs, but even then it still saves me time vs. using SQL for everything. Automatic table synchronizations are a huge time saver. Even if one doesn't use an ORM, I think one will eventually end up rolling their own, so why waste that time? Anyways ORMs have query builders, so one can always write SQL queries when necessary. I just wish TypeORM's query builder was just knex because knex is far superior to the TypeORM's bug-ridden querybuilder.
I feel that ORM might be an antipattern depending on a language.

Every Java developer I interacted in my career with wanted to avoid ORMs and instead come up with a bunch of pattern-abstracted ways to write raw SQL.

Every Python developer I interacted in my career with loved their ORMs. Django or SQLAlchemy.

I mean, you (or somebody) need to write a short bash script for each service on sysv, and adding cgroup management to that isn't particularly hard. I just never understood how people find that more complex than a huge mess of unit files that transpile down to God-knows-what, but apparently people do.

The user services systemd offers are legitimately cool (though shepherd does it better), I've just never personally understood how people find it "simpler" as a system service manager.
I'm curious, where do you plan trees?

Do you have land on your own, or is there some public land where you can plant trees?
> You've claimed that LLMs create most probable output, which does not necessarily align with truth.

No, that is not my claim. That is part of the explanation for it.

My claim is this: An LLM is incapable of knowing when it produces false information, as it simply doesn't have a concept of "truthfulness". It deals in probabilities, not alignment with objective reality.

And it doesn't matter how big you make them...this fact cannot change, as it is rooted in the basic MO of language models.

So, now that we have covered what my claim actually is...

> That is not what we've observed though. Quite the opposite - we're seeing that the bigger LLM is and the more domain-specific material it digested, the more truthful it becomes.

...I can ask what this observation has to do with it, and the answer is: Nothing at all. LMs with more params may produce untruthful statements less often, but what does this change about their ability to recignize when they do produce them? And the answer is: Nothing. They still can't.
Back in the 1980's only the rich had mobile phones.
I use an ORM for two things, in prioritized order:

1. Composability — making it easy to compose smaller queries together into larger queries

2. Type safety — so I can use the compiler to tell me when I've made a mistake
Wait, what use do you see for it as a spermicide? How would you use it?

Plastic replacement isn’t like leaded gasoline or ozone-depleting substances where you had just a few applications to design alternatives for. It’s in fucking everything. Even just finding a realistic replacement for plastic in shoes is not being productized seriously.

It’s going to take generations for it to be fixed, and it probably won’t happen until humans and other animals get much much sicker.

Water availability is also very different from country to country, region to region, and even town to town. How your water usage affects the environment depends on so many things.
The US was "lucky" in that they had the elixir sulfanilamide scandal a while earlier which pushed them to adopt medicine approval standards. France was another country that avoided Thalidomide since they had their Stalinon scandal a few years earlier which had spurred them into stricter regulation as well.

Sadly, everyone had to learn this lesson "the hard way", the timelines were just different.
> 1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use.

How does that help if someone steals your hardware key, login in with it and then puts it back. You don't even know that it was stolen and your account was messed with. With a good password you know if you tell someone. Granted people could film you typing your password, but stealing your hardware key is much easier.

> 2. Passkeys allow you to pick a backup solution of your choosing. Could be your own nextcloud server in the corner. This is no different than giving someone a choice of cloud-synced password manager

This isn't about backup, but trust. Do I trust a third-party to manage the keys to my kingdom? No. And even if, the third-party is a much easier target for 3 letter agencies, governments or other rich/influential bad actors. Also I haven't seen a solution where passkey can be used to decrypt my LUKS partition.

> There is no excuse for anyone even supporting passwords at this point. Sysadmins have not commonly used passwords for ssh in 20 years, favoring private keys on either hardware or encrypted disks. Keys better than passwords-over-the-wire in every way.

The encrypted disks are hopefully protected with a password, and not magically unencrypted, just by booting it with the right TPM configuration. The hardware hopefully requires a pin or password in order to unlock the SSH key, and the SSH key on disk is hopefully encrypted with a password as well.

Agreed that storing structured logs into a relational database can be very expensive. But you can store structured logs into analytical databases such as ClickHouse. When properly configured, it may efficiently store and query trillions of log entries per node. Google for Cloudflare and Uber cases for storing logs in ClickHouse.

There are also specialized databases for structured logs, which efficiently index all the fields for all the ingested logs, and then allow fast full-text search over all the ingested data. For example, VictoriaLogs [1] is built on top of architecture ideas from ClickHouse for achieving high performance and high compression rate.

This is what I forgot to mention, monitoring is a process, not a tool you put in place and forget about. And I agree that this is the main cause monitoring goes to shit. But if you think about it a little deeper you arrive at the requirement to have monitoring done by somebody who understands the business and the infra/software stack and has been at that company a few years at least. While in reality monitoring is mostly an afterthought cost center and employees are rotated far too often. It's not a glamorous position either, I don't think I once met somebody who wants to work there.
I think you can use a heuristic approach. E.g. pick a comma in the middle of the CSV, assume it is a delimiter (not inside data) and parse from there in a separate thread. If you find it doesn't parse correctly (perhaps because it is inside data) you might have to throw the results of that thread away. Kind of ugly but would probably allow faster parsing in 99% of cases.

CSVs are a bit of a mess. Non-trivial to parse properly, due to escaping, and the standard (such as it is) is poorly followed. E.g. sometimes people use semi-colon or pipe instead of comma.

I think especially in cities, people don't like the idea of replacing one problem with another.

Sure, ICE cars cause more air pollution than EVs. But things like public transit tend to create even less, since there's not a need to have one vehicle per person.

Since public transit makes so much sense in dense cities compared to EVs, I think a lot of the frustration and down votes you face are due to that issue: why replace one known evil with another, when we have much better options available??
I guess not for drinking. OP is planting trees, so assumably has land where some kind of forestry/agriculture is in being carried out. That needs quite some water. (eg. freshly planted trees need irrigation to have a fair chance of survival)

Also washing, showering can be done with rainwater if you are really a minimalist.

Read Wealth of Nations for an explanation of why this might not be the disaster for the wealthy countries as most mercantlists think it will.

Basically what's likely to happen in the long term is that shipping high skill jobs oversees will increase the world market size to a point where it's not going to actually leed to poverty in the rich regions.

Even the much hated exit of manufacturing jobs to Asia did not leed to an quantifiable decline in living standards in America as a whole and exiting the EU is not leading to an rise in working class wages across Britain.

With sensible management increasing industrial activity in the poorer regions can actually happen without a whole lot of negative side effect for the wealthy regions, but that require an kind of rational, fact based policy making that the current western political culture cannot produce as emotional irationalism seems to be an far better way to get elected then calm rationalism.
Just off the top of my head:

- Could be "just" goodwill, paying this out of the marketing budget to strengthen brand recognition amongst developers.

- Goodwill amongst developers is not just a feelgood benefit btw. Being known for supporting open source projects might help with the hiring pipeline for example. Making current employees feel better about Shopify would presumably also reduce employees turnover rate, leading to lower recruiting costs.

- Shopify as a company is extremely dependent on "the web" for its business, and would benefit from it being built on open standards. Supporting a variety of browsers leads to more competition in the browser space, which would support Shopify in the long run (see also the classic "commoditize your complement" article: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/06/12/strategy-letter-v/ )

Indeed, all of these large sponsorships so far have been specifically for Ladybird development.

That’s also what I’ve been personally focusing on for many months already, so nothing really changes about my day-to-day.

That said, keep in mind that 99% of work on Ladybird also improves SerenityOS, since they are part of the same mega-project. :)
