Seems like an odd detail. Is it safe to assume that this language is meant for investors? I’m the companies I’ve worked for, we never advertised the amount of efused-to-death silicon.
This inspired me to plumb the depths of FizzBuzz, seeking further into it than anyone ever has before: the 10^10000000000th digit (it's a "1"): https://github.com/leijurv/reverse-fizzbuzz
My understanding is that a statically typed language is inherently faster than a dynamically typed one, no matter how much you optimise the latter. The JS interpreter/VM simply has a lot more work to do than the JVM.

> They try with amazon.pl

The UX is overwhelmingly bad, shipping usually costs more than the free shipping threshold on allegro - it just has no value proposition.

> I think its more likely that companies like that will start to successfully compete with amazon in germany. Then again amazon would probably just buy them if it was too threatening.

Why do these companies even sell out to Amazon given how much higher their potential value proposition is? Without heavy antitrust monopoly bullshit, I can't imagine Amazon competing with anything that actually tries to be an usable service.
> With lambdas you’re stuck on AWS.

You're not getting stuck on AWS because you added a lambda to offload a background task, or because you implemented a low-traffic REST API with API Gateway. If you're rethinking where you deploy services, your decision won't factor in these irrelevant details. Odds are you are more concerned with S3 and CloudWatch than REST APIs.
Yeah, you've been able to stream from your hardware doe a while now. It never works quite as well as just plugging in a HDMI cord though.

There are also services like Shadow that just rent you a GPU enabled Windows box, and you can run whatever emulator on there you want. It's cheaper than renting GPU hours from the enterprise providers (who mostly target AI workloads, I guess?)

I don’t really see how I could convince my apartment or the company I work for to install chargers any time soon.

Sure maybe in years it will be common enough, but that’s my entire point. It doesn’t seem common at all around me yet, and I’m not going to buy an EV before charging is reasonably available.
In 2010, I worked for a company that was active in SEO spam. Google began putting a stop to it with Panda in 2011. Search results were pretty bad back then, too.
Businesses still need their stuff to work on Chrome whether or not it's certified, so this is kind of a moot point.

I presume you speak metaphorically, but just in case. Macintosh wasn't like that, the GUI was the OS, which is what made it so different from Microsoft's attempts, no DOS to drop down to.
Yeah, in my experience, Stack overflow answers suffer from subtle errors all the time too. Especially for basic questions -- the people answering and upvoting the answers are inexperienced devs, so they often upvote answers that are either the wrong way to do it (eg. reimplement something that has a very elegant built in way to do), or they just contain bugs (eg. because they mixed up the number of characters vs the number of bytes in a string).

They are still useful, you just have to make sure you understand what you are doing and read the relevant docs before you paste the code.

Is it though all ad fueled content generation?

Sure some will be, but I doubt most content is. If I write a children's book, is it ad fueled or did I write it because I wanted to write it.
You can sue people for illegal behavior. Simply consuming (or producing) hydrocarbons likely isn’t so nobody will sue over it. Recklessly disregarding a negative impact of a product you are peddling potentially is illegal, so people sue over it. Same as with cigarettes and opioids. Not sure why so many people are so averse to letting a court work out if oil producers can be held liable in this way.

What is pretty sure in my view is that future generations will hold us morally responsible for thoroughly wrecking the planet, between climate change, the mass extinction, micro plastics, cruelty against farm animals, etc.
Having seen state of the art neural networks in the 70s and 80s, I am both in awe at the progress that has been made since and deeply unconcerned about AGI.

Yes, storage capacity and compute have made major leaps, but it's still only lossily compressing a semantic space. It won't generate things from thin air, and it's certainly not sentient, no matter how far you scale it up.

That said, it may be a useful tool in some cases, and we've also seen its numerous limitations, only some of which may be alleviated in the future.

As always, the problem is not artificial intelligence, but natural stupidity.
The convention I'm used to uses .S to denote hand-written assembly files (usually tracked in git) vs .s for machine generated assembly which can be overwritten as needed.
And fuck‘em for it. Apollo was my Reddit gateway and for years I had put a lot of effort into posting and commenting before deleting my account on June 30. As an introvert, Reddit was much more to me an I miss some subreddits very dearly. However, it‘s time to move on and my last days on reddit showed that quite a lot of people think the same way, as quality and quantity plummeted.

Yeah? Have you measured it?

Aside from that, do you have anything meaningful to say about the points actually raised? Let's take your claim as a given. If it were 2003 instead of 2023 and people kept bringing up, say, problems with Windows but refused to speak about them in those terms—instead insisting on framing with a generalization about "computers"—would that have been acceptable on the basis that 90+% of the world is using Windows? It plainly wouldn't have, and that's true for a case where we actually know that we were dealing with numbers of 90% or more, and not just lazy attempts at retorts that are fired from the hip and by a reasonable guess probably won't actually hold up under scrutiny, anyway.

Yeah, it's funny reading his promotion of one of the most expensive sedans in the world as being somehow "underrated" lol.

Even funnier when you consider it has the panel gaps and material quality of an AliExpress gaming console, but it doesn't matter because "the interior looks like a space ship".
The best experience with frontend JS I've ever had is the following setup:

1. Use npm. Well, I didn't try yarn, probably it doesn't matter.

2. Use vite. It sets things up good enough and pulls only 15MB dependencies. Tiny!

3. Use TypeScript. I can't imagine writing untyped code.

4. Use eslint to complement typescript checks. Takes some time to set it up first time. Use default rules, they're good.

5. Use prettier to format code. I use vscode and with corresponding plugins, it just gets out of the way. It's good thing to have and works with minimal setup.

6. Use react. Well, it's pretty much standard nowadays and things are mostly fleshed out. But it's pretty complex so beware of steep learning curve. But once you learn it, it's not going anywhere. At this point I consider react a fundamental knowledge, worth spending time to learn.

7. For state management use react-query (yes, that sounds strange).

8. Use built-in to vite methods to access CSS (I think it's called module CSS).

9. Don't add any more dependencies unless you absolutely feel like it. Don't add CSS frameworks or things like that, just write your CSS by hand.

This was the least pain setup I ever had and I consider it to be minimally viable.
Is this why back in the day if you typed in 2 works it would show results with those 2 works and how the majority of time just the first?

When I'm looking for a technical solution I combine words. But Google gives me the middle finger, returns results for the first one which is like 'Windows Service' only to show me a generic website which has a download link for every KB number out there.

But the number of people housed works out to about the same (potentially more as immigrants are more likely to rent and they have larger families). People still live there, no matter who owns it.

Just checking, do you use stop words (removing “the”, “an” etc)? Can also add “its”.
The effects of climate change are already apparent and are impacting millions of people negatively every year. That is exactly what the lawsuit in question alleges regarding this single county. And on a global level, waiting for a risk to turn into a certainty before acting is how you get your civilization destroyed, so I’d rather listen to the best available data and act immediately.
I love erlang so much. It's just such a bizarre combination of things that should't mix as well as they do. Pattern match as assignment still feels futuristic; I know they didn't invent that but it must have taken serious vision & confidence to commit to it. Plus agents as the core abstraction, immutability semantics.

It all feels very CS-theory elegant and then you get to OTP, the most grimy roughneck Système D ass standard library I've ever seen. But that has no actual problems anywhere in my experience other than that you'll go years not knowing something is in there bc you didn't guess what five letter abbreviation it would be under.

Plus the syntax is like what you would get if you described a programming language to someone who had never seen one. Code from another planet. Flawless.

Thank you for this! It seems like there were 4 million new users in the last month but 250k fewer monthly active users. Maybe there is just a lag and the MUA will pick up in the next months.

Interesting charts, though. This will get a bookmark from me.
I had tried Notion a few times, but only this time I went deep enough to discover the Database feature that I've been longed for like a lifetime.

I was building my own digital life model with my half-wit SQL skills and frequently had to redesign the table, the relations, it was a huge pain to me that I had to stop after a few dozen tries. With notion every change is fluid and natural smooth.

With NotionApps I think I can some of this to an app on my phone. Hopefully one day these can be a native-ish App.
The NHS is a combo of hospitals, doctors, and insurance.

This combo (system as you like to call it, although that leaves out a ton of stuff) also exists in the US as a non-profit. I said this already.

It doesn't help

What will help is doctors taking a paycut and mass layoffs.

The problems in the US are not on the payment side, they are on the service side: it's simply too expensive.

We need twice as many doctors, working half as many hours, for half as much pay.

That's what would fix the US.

Looks similar to how you can use implicit classes in Scala[0]. They were definitely convenient for writing unit and integration tests, but difficult to read/maintain. I feel like a pipe operator would be a much more useful alternative instead of syntactic sugar for presenting functions as object method calls.

There is no way the cyber truck will compete with any actual offroad truck. It doesn’t have the clearance or departure angles or anything you’d want while offroading. It’s clearly made to stay on pavement unlike the rivian truck.
I ensure you no one actually cares about what happens 1000 years later. If someone actually cares about that, we'll call them mentally disordered.

By actually I mean to expend a significant part of the resource (time & money) you own to prepare for it.
I love the way there are 10 competing folk explanations for "why are recipe pages online so long?"

Spending time on the page should actually be a great proxy for usefulness on recipe websites. If it's a long page of introduction and anecdotes, maybe it took me three minutes instead of one to reject it as unpromising. If it's the recipe I actually used, however, that tab is going to be open for the next thirty minutes or more.

Teslas shouldn’t be allowed on the road
> but in general JIT should really out-perform "native" statically compiled compilers on most real-world workloads.

In theory, yes, but in practice I've never seen it happen. Best I ever saw was matching C speed at toy benchmarks. Even in this benchmark here, Java is decent, but does not beat even the naive implementations in C/Rust.

Also, AOT compilers can do PGO as well, so they can use the same techniques. But they also have way more time and resources, so they can do things like whole program optimization, which is something JITs cannot do because they have much smaller computation and memory budget.

It happened already many times to me that the first naive version of a C/C++/Rust program/function I wrote was already faster than a carefully tuned Java equivalent. AOT compilers for "fast languages" got really good these days. The design of language also influences how well it can be optimized by the compiler. E.g. it might look impressive JVM can devirtualize dynamic calls at runtime, but C++/Rust often don't have to do this at all as programs in those languages tend to have very few virtual calls if any at all.
Excuse me if this is a bit forward but who asked? In other words, why do hn commenters go off on tangents to the extent that in some posts you'll find more irrelevant tangents than discussion of the article in the link?
Interestingly the majority of Tesla sales is also in China, US being second, EU being a distant third.

Feels like at this point whoever takes the Chinese market gets the crown, and I suppose India will be next in this game.

> but for the sake of the argument, let's restrict it to manual jobs where being human doesn't matter.

This is the biggest misconception about AI and automation: manual jobs will be the last to be automated, because making robots (which is specialized hardware) is much, much more expensive than making software. That's why our 70s dreams about robots haven't materialized, despite Japan going all in on robots, and why Besos aims to “algorithmically control workers' body”.

> It doesn't look good.

Having machines do work isn't a problem in itself, in fact that's what the industrial revolution was about, the problem is power and whealth grab by a minority of people owning the means of productions…
The fear of GC pauses is mostly outdated. It was right in the past, but it is becoming less and less of an issue with the new GC work coming online. And for small heaps in web application servers, the pauses were a blip on the high percentiles of response times and you usually had a dozen other issues before that.

It's similar to SWAP in Linux. It was implemented somewhat meh in older kernels, and usually if swap got hit, the system died anyhow. So there was no real difference between random processes being OOM-killed or the system grinding to a halt swapping. Modern kernels in the 4+ line have received quite a bit of work on the swap handling and swap is used a lot and very cleverly to eek out just a bit more available memory more quickly.

Old habits die hard though and it takes time for old knowledge to change.
Until ChatGPT came along, I figured it was inevitable that human curated search came back into ascendancy as the crawler model has become such a failure.

Now we can use ChatGPT to filter through Google's infested mess, but this double edged Sword of Damocles will be able to create infinite attempts to bury genuine content with ad spam.
"Wasted" is a strong word - especially when these kinds of things get filtered for early on to avoid exactly that.

Thanks for the input I guess?
Maybe at the end of this cycle what we really invest in is on humanization of work. New work maybe all about having a human interface with the ability to connect to the person on the other side. And the entire decisioning and thinking is done by the algorithms.

We do not want to read tweets or content created by AI's or machines, we want to connect with humans who can inform or teach us better. Maybe this would mean the liberation of humans from physical fields to digital fields where we keep plowing.

We were meant to connect, discover, roam, invent and innovate and instead ended up somehow sitting in front of a monitor and calling it work!
Broadening the scope a bit beyond just languages and their creation alone, we can add:

Same. I used to read my 100s of blog subscriptions every day until Reader closed, I switched to Feedly, and I completely and utterly stopped following every single blog. I think Google+ filled that gap though, but when that shut down, I quit social media (except for family and friends on Facebook) because I absolutely couldn't stand, well, Twitter, really.
Sounds like The Onion.
I think it's just missing a word, and it should be "Commuters prefer origin transfers to destination transfers". Perhaps it's immediately clear to his intended audience.
I’ve no problem distilling those! I find stackoverflow and co to be of worse signal:noise
IIRC, Linus may have said that somewhere about Linux.
Do People pay actual money for these crap products?
Belgium. Lived there for almost eight years. They have the highest percentage of royalty that live there than any other country in the world -- very little of them are actually Belgian royalty. They have an effective tax rate of 90% through sales and income taxes, but no property taxes on rental properties. So, they also have the highest percentage of millionaires and billionaires who "live" there than anywhere else in the world. And that extreme concentration of royalty plus the wealthy means they own basically all the properties in the country, and it's extremely difficult for anyone to actually buy a house there, even if they are a Belgian native or an EU citizen.

Also, if you're ever having any kind of work done at your place, the first question is "do you need a receipt?" Which is short for "is your employer paying for this, or can we do a cash-only transaction that would be much cheaper for you?"

And everyone has at least one or two tax-free side hustles. Some of them are even legal.

Don't get me wrong, my wife and I loved living and working there. Some of the best times of our lives. But we also have to be honest about what we saw.

But maybe that was just Brussels?

Funnily enough, I see this as one of the biggest disadvantages of ChatGPT. I am used to searching the web and navigating results, and have developed a lot of heuristics for assessing the credibility of a page. ChatGPT flattens the true, not-true-but-maybe-helpful, and straight up time-wasting BS into the same confident patter. So I have to treat everything it says with equal scepticism.
