from previous readings, some of it's "we're counting potential future loses as current loses" but post pandemic lots of lenders are starting to feel some squeeze.
I remember that seals and dolphins were / are trained to patrol navy bases and vessels, so they are effectively employed by the state. I suppose their employer (e.g. DoD) pays 100% of the taxes for them though.
The internet started in the hands of the government.
Typescript. Kotlin. Java.

I cannot imagine going back to Python, Ruby or PHP after using modern languages like these.

Also, Java performance is good enough. Why did anyone ever abandon Java? It's easy to read, easy to write and pleasant enough to work with. If you need C level performance, by all means go with C, Go, Rust but Java to me is perfect, and Typescript is good enough for everything else.
> I'm surprised no new languages focus on ecosystem. It is much less fun than making clever syntax I suppose.

Honestly, this is a lot of the draw of Go and Rust for a lot of people; other than debugging (which I can't speak to from experience, but as I understand it, both are on par with C++), the points you hit on above are all things Go and Rust have really solid answers to compared to their contemporaries.
I wonder how much viewership has to fall off for this to be a bad decision. For immediate profits I can see it makes sense but like web sites there's many I can do without visiting. Alternatives exist and will be sought out when motivated.

Paywalls (for casual content) and excessive or intrusive ads I consider to not be the free/open internet I care to support.
I thought the same but the case mentioned down below in the replies brings up an interesting point. The Colorado cake bakery case involved a regular cake, no special decorations on it. Seems we may be going down a slippery slope again.

Yes, that actually happened, but - was it a bad thing? Supply is through the roof apparently. The operators of small family farms can wind them up, and use their skills somewhere else. Or pivot to a more profitable niche like all the people looking for local organic food, or rustic wedding venues, or agritourism, etc.
OP here.

Python frustrates me too, but I just throw poetry and nix at it... keeps me not frustrated. :D

It looks like my LOVE game uses about 99M resident... not too bad given it's pulling in a lot of libraries such as SDL2, luajit, audio decoders, etc etc.

I think my concern is more with how do I embed Racket on low memory systems if a simple "racket script" is going to use a large % of the RAM to issue a `(sleep)`?
Most mathematicians don't care if proofs are correct, only that they look correct to other mathematicians.
It's more than that.
Consider Apple's strongest advantage, it's brand.

If Goldman is the one handling the lending, it is also the one sending you to collections.

I skimmed the review and didn't see the price or what components it's using. That's the first thing I want to know.
It failed due to the GOP, which didn’t exactly vote favorably on any measures related to this when they did have a chance.
The bigger problem here is that you have QA, not the lack of tooling.
I had to remove the ionizer from my blueair, ionizers plus terpenes (what essential oils are made of, and in virtually all cleaning products) creates formaldehyde, which I'm allergic to, and is linked to cancer and kids developing asthma.

And more unfortunately, the "roots" of mathematics always lead to nothing (0).
You overfitted. That can happen due to human optimisation as well as computer optimisation. After you have experimented on some historical data for a while it becomes less useful.
pocket is a... well, it's a tool anyway, that never should have been anything but an add-on. Including it in the browser was one of the biggest signs that firefox was willing to sacrifice their user's privacy and security for revenue. If people are fine with telling Pocket what they read and letting them push related ads at them all day they should absolutely have that choice, but it should never have been shoved on everyone.

Firefox Sync already had a Reading List which was encrypted and open source, they really didn't need to bundle a third-party proprietary cloud service that required an account and increased attack surface (https://web.archive.org/web/20150818175419/https://www.gnu.g...). People who wanted pocket, and found it valuable would still be just as well off with it as an add-on, everyone else would have been spared the extra trouble of disabling it.

Firefox is still the best browser in terms of privacy and security but only after you make an ever growing number of about:config changes, many of which exist only to remove or disable anti-features added by Mozilla. I really wish Mozilla would embrace privacy, security, and customization as what (apart from the rendering engine, which most users will never be aware of) truly differentiates them from chrome and every other popular browser which are also chrome, but again and again their choices are in direct opposition to those very same principles
I think it is that, I assume "money set aside to cover possible losses on loans" means income statement provision for future losses.
If the mere possibility of a bug is a show stopper, you really shouldn't use anything because this possibility always exists --- with all hardware and software.
I use VM both at home and at work for 10s of millions of active time series and it's great.

It just runs and the default config is sustainable unlike some of the other solution.

Pull/push mostly doesn't matter other than config, it's the number of metrics and series of the prometheus ecosystem that's the real problem and being able to handle them without OOMing to 0 availability that the problem.
Second this. I've tried Bun a couple times and have been surprised by how fast it actually is but also run into issues getting it to work with existing libraries. Issues that make it seem like it's almost there but just not quite able to replace node yet in most cases.

It's surprising to see effort spent coming up with and developing niche new features rather than on bridging the gaps (within reason) with node.

I've never worked on a language project like this before though so I'm not in a place to cast any judgement, just echoing the sentiment that this seems strange from the outside. Maybe this is just what it takes to keep the project interesting for Jarred? I can relate to getting bored with a project once I've proved out the difficult parts and most of what remains just feels like chores
I own all the Serif products and love the company, but have to say v2 is so buggy on windows still. I hear it's better on mac, though I've had it crash on iOS a few times. I've gone back to mostly using designer v1.
> I'm surprised no new languages focus on ecosystem. It is much less fun than making clever syntax I suppose.

Most new languages that I know of have a package manager/inbuilt dependency resolution mechanism and a fairly robust module system to try and support 3rd party dependencies.

Rust, Go, Dart, D. You can expect every language post 2010ish to have this.
How were they supposed to pass the law with the filibuster?

That sounds like a great way to lose both money and time without achieving anything. Just use another provider and move on.
On a smaller time scale, is rate of growth that meaningful?

I guess I'm just thinking, until we see the how this all pans out over the next decade, we don't really know if the current rate of growth will hold, or if it'll plateau/slow down.
12 YOE

Staff software engineer. Full-stack web & app engineer/architect. What that practically means is: Java/Kotlin Services on AWS, Kafka, Kubernetes, SQL/Mongo/DynamoDB/Redis etc, JS/TS React for frontend web, Kotlin+Android, Swift+iOS. Starting to build out AI/LLM/ChatGPT stuff now as well.

Hours: remote 9-5, so 40 hrs/week (nice try boss!). But one could imagine someone working ~4hrs/day in such a position.

Salary: 240k base + 70k signing, 120k stocks, and 10% quarterly bonus

Loc: Seattle

I could probably work my ass off and get a 20% quarterly bonus and work toward Principle Engineer, but I've found promotions come out of luck combined with concerted effort. However I'm very financially satisfied and can prioritize my free-time and happiness. I've done my time at FAANG and even though they're trying to get me to come back, I'm happy with clocking out at 5:00pm on the dot with no on-call.

The more I've made, the less I've worked, and it keeps going up.

Bloody fools. They don't know what beast they are waking up. Certain portion of ad blocker users are zealots. These people are insane and quite a few of them are quite resourceful. Just a few problems that are going to hit YT:

- torrents and other piracy

- rapidly evolving ad-blockers

- undetectable ad-blockers sitting in a new page layer invisible to page scripts

- visual ML ad-blockers detecting ads no matter how they are loaded

- new ad-free P2P video sharing websites

- influential users discouraging everyone from using YT

- popular content creators moving off YT and advertising other hosting options

First, the headline is an awful miscategorization of reality (no matter how credible the source is).

Second, the US public operates within an illusion of freedom. The options aren't up to US public to take action on. The options are up to large corporations and ultra-rich to take action on. My carbon footprint is nowhere near the size of persons such as the Waltons, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, or entities such as bitcoin mining farms, OpenAI, BP, Exxon Mobile, Shell, Amazon, Nestle, Walmart, Google, Raytheon.

Me riding my bicycle as a primary form of transportation, and eating a homegrown vegetarian diet, does nothing to combat climate change as Kim Kardashian's plane flies overhead. Nothing I do stops Exxon and BP from spilling oil into the waterways, or American car manufacturers from refusing to pivot to renewables. Instead of maintaining a hard line, US government hands out carbon credits to companies for successfully skirting climate regulations. Me choosing to not use cloud computing does nothing to improve that situation. I didn't price the US public out of cities, so that individuals now have to commute over an hour to barely make a living (using even more precious fossil fuels), corporations did that under government supervision.
False dichotomy - there are more options for Internet control than purely private and purely government.
It’s basically zero effort to use a different card.
opposite for me. I can't stand the xbox analog stick placements. I think it's good to have different options so people can choose what works for them.
> What does take tons of time however is figuring build systems, packaging, distribution, debugging, editor support, documentation, community, libraries, etc...

Yes.

If you want the Apple consumer market, you support Apple Pay and then the cards you support don't matter.

How can you hope to compete with the pros? You're not going to be faster than them and unless you have several PhDs in maths it's unlikely you'll come up with a better algorithm.

The only way I can think of is to get data that they can't.
Primary sources are anathema to mainstream media. It's not just political articles, it's the whole damn profession. If you can watch ten seconds of him bowling you don't need to spend ten minutes on the article.
My bad, I misread your initial comment as "it would cost a lot of money"!

Memory might be the limiting resource to support time travel debugging in some use cases, but for the ones we are targetting, the problem space is a bit more diverse. When multiple machines and multiple languages are involved, and web services are running online on a distributed compute fleet, the variety of challenges to account for goes beyond the amount of hardware that we can throw at the problem.
Where does one store favorite links so I can handle them on phone and two separate machines?
I use an Apple Card and it’s good but nothing amazing. The incentives and benefits are pretty basic. The interest rate isn’t competitive, not even a 0% teaser rate. But I use it because it’s super fucking convenient. 1 account for my entire family. It helps catch billing mistakes for example we were paying for 2 Prime subscriptions for years; a monthly and annual.

My impression is Apple is trying to be the universal app. Chat, App Store, media, and bank. And GS is there stepping stone.
This is probably because in London, the flat will rent in a few days anyway. There isn’t any incentive for relatable agents to try any harder.
Wow thanks for this summary. I need to go redirect some snark now.
I think the end-all-be-all of this obviously spiraling conversation is: the other user expected SLES to be a drop-in replacement for RHEL/CentOS, but it wasn't. So why did they not consider Suse for their enterprise uses? Because they had existing workflows that work on RHEL-like operating systems, and Suse would require more work and time to adopt than those alternatives. All of that is completely fair and valid. And to make your point: all you have to do is learn the operating system and suddenly that's not much of a concern any more. If the free alternatives aren't as feasible in the future, I'm sure there may be more appetite for that kind of effort.
Do you use Clojure? I'd give the title of best Lisp to Common Lisp, the Actually Lisp -- it's so Lisp it even has Lisp in its name and runs decades of Lisp code, something neither Clojure nor Racket can do any more easily than Python. I suspect many of the author's frustrations would go away if he just used CL... though he'd find new ones for sure.
> Besides, modern Haskell or C# or TypeScript or Rust code is not simply a set of instructions. You could argue that assembly language is. But the vastly different ways to express the same logical things in different languages, including comments, naming conventions, clever tricks, etc. all together comprise a body of artwork (yes, artwork) that is clearly copyrightable.

Mathematical and logical formulas also aren't subject to copyright, so your Haskell argument doesn't hold water even if we do allow that functional code somehow isn't clearly reducible to a set of instructions.

The correct solution is to come up with some kind of legal regime that's actually designed for software rather than trying to torture a law for printing presses into saying something meaningful and equitable about software.

> It's hard to argue I'm straw-manning you when you make such obviously outrageous statements. This statement is like a caricature of everything I'm claiming the FSF is.

What's outrageous about the statement that software that I am free to modify has greater value than software that performs the same function but that I am not free to modify?
> I'm surprised no new languages focus on ecosystem. It is much less fun than making clever syntax I suppose.

In a way it is. After all if i make a new language, i can control what it can do and how it evolves but i can't control other people to force them use it.
It would be funny if some random grandma bought a pack for a kid, and the kid would then take the card, play with it, put it in a pack of other cards, put a rubber band around them, spread some cheeto dust on the card, play with the cards on the ground, etc. :)
> educational quality, it's questionable.

Virtually anyone at a top tier university would be 100% capable of learning their material and making good grades on it with the textbook alone. Combined with online resources, even easier. The quality of instruction isn't all that important for these schools, it's the decisions around which material to present and how to present it, which they can do because they attract the best talent.
anecdotally, towards the next generation of statically compiled languages, which have picked up a few affordances from the dynamic/scripting set. a lot of devops folk seem to be moving to go, for instance, and application developers have been showing some interest in rust, though personally I think it's a bit too low level to become universally popular. I wouldn't be surprised if something like crystal or native kotlin become popular down the road.
We do have policies to benefit the economically disadvantaged. The amount we spend on this front is vastly, vastly more than any race-based interventions. I would argue we should do much more on that front.

But, people can and do suffer from racism without being poor. Controlling socioeconomic status, Black people (I'm going to focus here) statistically have worse opportunities and outcomes. This is why race-based policy is important in addition to purely financial considerations. There is no perfect implementation of affirmative action to address the root of the problem, but on the whole, I think it's extremely important that institutions are able to try.

The older people in my parents' generation were often prevented from having a full education, often even up to the high school level. My mom was born in the North, instead of the South as her older siblings were, because her family fled the Klan. These are just a couple examples of how the history of de jure and de facto racial oppression are still very much with us.

If not for reforms and affirmative action, I probably would not have had the opportunity to be raised in a financially stable household in an area of bountiful opportunity. It's heartbreaking to me that the policies that allowed my family to go from oppressed sharecropping to earning our way into the middle class are being revoked.

The truth is, affirmative action was never enough, and it is unlikely to be replaced with anything any more sufficient.
With all due respect for julian37, I suggest caution. I might amend "quite pungent" to "good God what the hell" and "deep flavor" to "tastes like it smells."

Perhaps I am betraying my American lack of culinary flexibility. Perhaps julian37 is just joshing us.

I very much miss living in Frankfurt, a wonderful city. However, I suspect that the local practice of recommending Handkäse to visitors is an inside joke and a harmless and amusing example of German humor.

I agree. June tech layoffs are almost a 1 year low[0]. US unemployment is still record low, even with inflation mostly abating.

If it was an argument against capitalism, it is a clearly erroneous argument, since we can see that Americans are not lying in poverty begging for food relative to the past, despite the fact that farms have been largely mechanized with tractors.

I really hate it when government agencies or public utilities do this (or, worse, when they use Facebook), personally. Hopefully, this move by Twitter will finally put an end to it.
Even aside from what the article speaks of, Slate Star Codex made a good point. Homo sapiens outcompeted several other species of the Homo genus becauuse of superior intelligence. So yes, we have seen this scenario before, and the only reason we have seen it is because we were the winners - the losers went extinct. Oopsie-doopsie.

Personally I think it would have been nobler/more fulfilling to "evolve beyond evolution" rather than construct our own obsolescence, but whatever, capitalism and competition and extinction in spades works too. At least the writers at Time can sleep easy knowing global civilization has like, a few decades at most, regardless of AI.
I don’t see equivalent sobbing when somebody praise lets say Rust (random choice) for being productive, for the easiness of working with cargo or some other random stuff from the “working programmer perspective”.

Is this sad only when people have to talk about their pain points?
Not onto a tombstone, in a tomb. Even the commandments required multiple tablets, two or three I suppose.
It might be a coincidence, but I bought the DualSense Edge and while I think it's overpriced, the sticks seem much more precise. Does anyone know if the Edge is using hall effect sticks? At more than double the price of the regular controller, I'd hope they're using higher end sticks. That said, at least they can be replaced easily and relatively cheaply ($20) on the Edge.
You're taking it way too literally. 100% participation rate is not the point.

It could be 25%, it could be 51%. Once we get past a certain threshold of bad actors in the marketplace, trade is impossible. We don't know what the exact limit is, but we're best served keeping that number closer to 0 so we don't have to find out.
That's a false dichotomy. Government-regulated doesn't mean government-run. I wish we had laws in place that would prevent Facebook/Apple/Google/Twitter monopolies/walled gardens from happening
Bitcoin can bank the unbanked, but only the very wealthy unbanked. For example, if you are a wealthy person in a country that is being heavily sanctioned, or if you are a wealthy person making a lot of hidden money from crime, your money is effectively unbanked, and Bitcoin is an excellent solution to that problem for you.
Well, the Google Play store does have alternatives and it’s just as much of a shit show if not more so and monetizes worse.

To a first approximation, no one cares about open source app stores on Android.

Epic tried to bypass the Play Store and it was a disaster for them.
