It sounds like they have two different mechanisms they can pull from currently, which will get them to parity with RHEL releases.

Red Hat would need to shift a few knobs and probably offend quite a few people running UBI images at least (including a zillion folks in the OpenShift community who rely on them) to cut off this current approach to getting the sources.

I wonder if Red Hat is willing to play this game of whack a mole? And IMO, was it worth it?

Totally piling on here. Removing the password generator with copy/paste functionality is a stunning example of HIPPO Human Factors egotistical maniacs attempting to engineer reality. There are many websites that simply don’t work with their “generate & fill” workflow. My bank, for example.

It’s frustrating enough for me, but for my wife whom I’m trying desperately to onboard into the world of password management, this is an impossibly impassible scenario. She basically has to reset her bank password all the time to log in. Which makes standard human interactions like “did you receive that deposit yet” excruciating.

And then on the 1Password forums, all the employees are these self-righteous pricks that summarily dismiss their users as being uncooperative, when the reality is, they removed working functionality and replaced it with garbage that just doesn’t work.

> considering most code is just rearranging existing patterns.

I am an outspoken critic of "design patterns". They have their place, if you're working with legacy tooling like C++, Java or Rust, but if most of your work is rearranging existing patterns, you have long outgrown your tooling and you need a better programming language. (Or you're copy-paste programming and need to learn your tooling first.)

I am doing academic research, but that's besides the point. So far, I've learned that it's rather hard to be cutting-edge if you don't look at other people's work: you end up re-inventing all the wheels, and any insight you may have brought is lost in the noise.

> For in-context learning, I think it is fair to expect 100k to 500k context windows sooner. OpenAI is already at 32k.

It has been interesting to see that window increase so quickly. For LLM context the biggest thing is the pay-per-token constraint if you don't run your own, so have to wonder if that is what will be around in the future given how this is trending? Just in terms of idempotent calls, throwing everything in context up every time seems like it makes it likely that OpenAI will encroach on the stores side as well and do sessions?
Clarence Thomas' concurring opinion begins on page 49. He pulls no punches, and its worth a read.

His concluding 3 paragraphs:

> The great failure of this country was slavery and its progeny. And, the tragic failure of this Court was its misinterpretation of the Reconstruction Amendments, as Justice Harlan predicted in Plessy. We should not repeat this mistake merely because we think, as our predecessors thought, that the present arrangements are superior to the Constitution.

> The Court’s opinion rightly makes clear that Grutter is, for all intents and purposes, overruled. And, it sees the universities’ admissions policies for what they are: rudderless, race-based preferences designed to ensure a particular racial mix in their entering classes. Those policies fly in the face of our colorblind Constitution and our Nation’s equality ideal. In short, they are plainly—and boldly—unconstitutional. See Brown II, 349 U. S., at 298 (noting that the Brown case one year earlier had “declare[d] the fundamental principle that racial discrimination in public education is unconstitutional”).

> While I am painfully aware of the social and economic ravages which have befallen my race and all who suffer discrimination, I hold out enduring hope that this country will live up to its principles so clearly enunciated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States: that all men are created equal, are equal citizens, and must be treated equally before the law.
Around the time I hit 30, alcohol just kind of stopped working for me. It makes me feel a little calm and tired, but the euphoria is gone. Previously I was close to having a problem with drinking and went out a few too many night a week for a few too many drinks. I still drink a little, but in the kind of way someone might drink milkshakes. I sort of miss it, but sort of don’t.

Right.. so the post I'm replying to suggests that Google and Facebook should just drop these larger publishers and instead abuse smaller publishers who "would just be happy for the exposure."

So.. your argument is, because you don't like some media companies and are willing to speak on behalf of all Canadians, the market really isn't worth protecting at all?

> As a white person, your individual chances of going to Harvard are not meaningfully affected by the presence of affirmative action. Consider their admission rate of 0.04, then consider affirmative action affects 10% of applicants. Your chance of admission is now 0.036, which at the end of the day is basically the same. You have a 96.4% chance of not being admitted vs 96% chance.

I can’t follow your math at all.

Something like 30% of the student body, per the opinion, is black or Hispanic. If you assume that all of those people were admitted solely as a result of affirmative action (which is obviously not the case), that creates a 30% reduction in available slots, which will reduce the admission rate of everyone else (assuming the same people apply) by 30%.

This is made up, but I don’t see where your 10% comes from.
But... this way you end up dating somebody that only likes you when you're hung over. That doesn't sound like a winning strategy to me.

> There is a belief that any group, race, subset of people should have the same outcomes everywhere.

Of course we need to be more specific than just "percent of population". For example, the average age of whites is older than for minorities. So we shouldn't expect the total population percentage for whites college students to line up with their percent enrollment in college, not in the total adult population.

But considering age is just one factor. Of course we need to consider others in order to be equitable. If Harvard admits students with 1500+ SATs, then shouldn't we be looking at that population? It turns out that population is 43% Asian and 45% white. [1]

Interestingly this lines up with Caltech's percentages almost exactly. UC Berkeley, where affirmative action is banned, has roughly the same percentage of Asian students, but many fewer white students.

The specification of crockford32 is at https://www.crockford.com/base32.html

z-base32 has some nice ideas, although I don’t really give a damn how these things look except where that has functional/ergonomic consequences, since none of them have real aesthetic value. The beauty of numbers is in their structural properties, not their representations. If we really cared about how it feels I’d suggest using an S/KEY-style word mapping instead to get some poetry out of it.
Interestingly the postcondition does not prove that the GCD implementation is correct and by extension does not prove Bézout's identity.

Stating that some value is the gcd is surprisingly tricky. Once you have proven that Bézout's identity holds for your function you could prove it is the actual gcd by showing it is a divisor for both a an b. Assuming I understood the notation correctly that would give something like the following

lemma euclid_gcd(nat: a, nat: b)
ensures (a % GCD(a,b)) == 0
ensures (b % GCD(a,b)) == 0
{ }

I'd be curious to know if it can prove this. Note that this would still not constitute a proof of Bézout's identity, as it uses it to define what the gcd is. Thankfully defining the gcd using Bézout's identity is pretty common nowadays, as it allows for a useful generalisation of the concept.

There are three implementations you’ve listed for actual rendering: WebKit, Blink, Gecko. And it’s unlikely we will ever see another due to how complicated they are to build. It’s been becoming less diverse for almost two decades now.

And you’ve ignored the fact that every web view we have had on desktop so far is kinda crappy and sluggish when at least well built native apps generally feel snappy.

Webviews are one step about shitty Java apps (you know the ones) in terms of UI.

Beyond that there’s the RAM usage.

Be no longer amazed that people can have these problems which no web app they have used has overcome on three or four different computing platforms.

I think that's only true for a very generous definition of "problems".

In my opinion, if a device that I paid for resists its rightful owner (that would be me) and does stuff that I don't want it to do (like showing ads or phoning home with my data) that's a "computer problem" in my definition. And then I would say people spend roughly 50% of their screen time fighting the machine gods.
They just broke it out on the census (protip: that was a relic from the time Middle Eastern immigration was mostly Christian)
This is the core of the issue. The thing is that in modern western societies shame is placed upon many activities that are normal and necessary for a human to enjoy a good life. It is shameful in many places for a person to sing, dance, and to express their true emotions. So we intoxicate ourselves, in order to escape from the overly rigid social conditioning we have all internalised.

I think this reasoning is pretty labored. Sure there's some small percentage of engineers who are eminently employable and don't care to unionize. It benefits everyone else though, and even those "elite" engineers benefit from unionization, as unions have to represent everyone. I feel like there are tinges of, "I don't want to pay union dues if I'm not in the union" or "everyone thinks they'll be rich someday / are an elite engineer so they don't want to tax the wealthy / unionize", but idk, these are old, bad arguments.

But in day-to-day, trying to explain things or convey my thoughts coherently, I'm pretty bad. I think it's gotten worse in the past few years with how isolated I've been starting with the pandemic.

Talking is a skill like any other.

So, a comparison.

You know how you can picture a car in your head but you can't make draw a car unless you've spent time practicing as an artist? That is because connecting our mental representation of "a car" and making our hand draw a car is a skill that requires a lot of training. This is why artists practice drawing still lives, looking at an orange and copying it down to paper with a pencil trains your brain on how to translate the thing that is visually inside your head to what your hand needs to do to re-create it.

Well, the same for mental dialogue. Going from "idea in head" to "words coming out of mouth" is a skill that takes practice.

There are ways to practice this! Toastmasters is a famous group whose goal is improving this skill, but there are many other routes. I had good luck with table top RPGs, I spent years playing a character who is supposed to be charismatic, and accordingly I had lots of chances to practices being outgoing!

We are good at the things we practice doing!

"A vibrant screen that responded instantly when you tapped replaced cramped keyboards."

I tentatively assume this results from a partial edit. Something to do with "replaced your dumbphone and tapped on cramped keyboards" or just maybe the slightly non sequitur "replaced erroneous characters on cramped keyboards"?

Parse errors aside,

"Design Tools - Users are consistently frustrated when Sketch or Figma are slow. Designers have high APM (actions per minute) and a small slowdown can occur 5-10 times per minute.
"

Haven't used those, but with some design tools, it felt like 5-10 times per second, especially when trying to get an idea on screen quickly!

Regarding when it's okay to be slow:

"When a human has to keep up with a machine (e.g. we slow down video game framerates, otherwise the game would run at 60x speed and overwhelm you).
"

I…wouldn't slow the framerate, unless you mean the game's speed is locked to refreshrate (as some ancient graphical games are), so allowing frames to be generated faster causes the gameworld to change faster. Or unless unrestrained framerate results in too much heat or power consumption.
Sure, but I like to think that I could pretty quickly recognize them. Much harder with GPT.

The opposite. Real sugar makes a drink much more viscous. Fake sugar leaves the mouth feel thin.
If you're a habitual drinker - try not drinking for a month to see if the habit just stops. I stopped to do an experiment on my sleep and biomarkers and haven't found the urge to continue (still drink socially but I used to have a whiskey after dinner pretty reliably). For me it was pretty clearly just to destress and have something to sip on in front of TV. I switched to a non-caffeinated tea+honey+lemon which might event help with sleep rather than disturb it.

Kinda basic psychology but it's helpful to just put the bottles away in an a cabinet - if I don't see them I don't even think, "oh - I could go for a drink". The difference is expending the willpower to not drink vs not to even think to drink.
We'll never know because it's a taboo topic. So we'll just pretend that almost every aspect of our body has racial differences due to populations being exposed to different environments/conditions and evolving to adapt, yet magically this one organ, the brain, is perfectly steady across time and location.

Regardless, it's probably a "close enough" call and culture might be a larger factor. Which one can also only selectively talk about.

For example, everybody knows why Asians outperform whites: performance culture and work ethic.
> I think we can assume it won't be as efficient has hand written code

Actually, surprisingly, not necessarily the case!

If you'll refer to the discussion in https://github.com/dafny-lang/dafny/issues/601 and in https://github.com/dafny-lang/dafny/issues/547, Dafny can statically prove that certain compiler branches are not possible and will never be taken (such as out-of-bounds on index access, logical assumptions about whether a value is greater than or less than some other value, etc). This lets you code in the assumptions (__assume in C++ or unreachable_unchecked() under rust) in the generated production code that will then allow the compiler to optimize the codegen using this information.

(Caveat: I just heard of Dafny today. Definitely not an expert!)
