> a bunch of ancillary skills that you don't think of as programming, but you need to know them. Version control, devops-type stuff like how to provision a server.

As someone who first coded seriously 40 years ago, and who keeps in practice on side-projects, this is where I find it hardest to keep up: the complex tooling and processes around actually deploying your code in a production environment. Reading HN has been invaluable in maintaining some sort of awareness of what is current.
> Let’s work together on finding the right path

This is precisely what the reported issues are trying to achieve, regardless of their tone. The current path is completely wrong and reckless. The first step of working together would be to abandon this approach entirely.

This is akin to suggesting that we'd solve global warming by triggering a nuclear winter. This is not something you can solve by iterating and finding a middle path. The entire premise of this proposal is dangerous and should be binned.

Just think about all the potential ways in which this approach can (and obviously would) be abused.

WhatsApp and Chrome is apples and oranges - not using WhatsApp comes at a social cost (especially in countries like Germany and India where almost everyone uses it) because you can no longer communicate with other WhatsApp users or participate in group chats.

Not using Chrome comes with zero cost - you can use the same websites everyone else is using, just use Firefox.
Google is a big organisation, even if some people don't want to work on it, there are plenty of others who will. It's not as if every software engineer in the world shares your views and your principles.
I use Brave Browser and Brave Mobile. They started out to tackle these kinds of issues but they've adopted chromium since. Should I ditch them for Firefox?
An example: I bought a slick application for macOS & Windows: OpusModus ( https://opusmodus.com ). It's a Lisp IDE tailored for algorithmic Music composition.

The Mac version is just a normal desktop app in the Applications folder. It automatically runs on Intel and Apple Silicon, natively. Upon download it is expanded to a Mac application. It has a native user interface. For sound generation it can use a Lisp library which compiles sound generators to C, which then get compiled by Xcode and loaded into Lisp all at runtime. Typically it talks via Midi to other applications (Logic, Mainstage, Ableton, ...). It creates nice looking scores...

There is also a Windows application, with the same features, native code & native UI, ...

I find that pretty cool for a language & application which is super niche.

OpusModus 3 is written in LispWorks (first released end 80s on Unix machines), a commercial Common Lisp, which can be used for such Desktop applications.
No. Chromium browsers may as well be Chrome for the purposes of this discussion.
The problem with Mozilla Corporation/Foundation is that they blew all their time/money/resources/lead on things that didn't matter, not helping pave the way forward, and then fired a lot of their staff to boot!

Mozilla was once a bright shinning beacon of hope for the open web, but they wasted their good will on too many of us, and it pains me to think what could have been.
From time to time I still think about how we were a few hundred hanging chads away from not squandering almost all of our international goodwill and political capital in a series of disastrous wars launched from the basis of lies sold to Congress and the public.
The conclusion is a bit weird:

> But these easy switching, transition, and titling tools – even if the aesthetic is dated now – could sure come in handy in 2020s software.

But NewTek still exist and their current line is a direct evolution from the Video Toaster of yore. The current TriCaster still has an interface that reminds of the original product from 30 years ago, that's pretty easy to verify!
> There is no 'right to revenue', iTunes or Spotify did not compensate because they are different media with different usage patterns and a different audience.

No, because they had to compete against music piracy, which is hard, as pirated music is free.
A few years ago AMD split off their GPU architectures to CDNA (focused on data center compute) and RDNA (focused on rendering for gaming and workstations). This in itself is fine and what Nvidia was already doing, it makes sense to optimize silicon for each use case, but where AMD took a massive wrong turn is that they decided to stop supporting compute completely for their RDNA (and all legacy) cards.

I'm not sure exactly what AMD expected to happen when doing that, especially when Nvidia continues to support CUDA on basically every GPU they've ever made: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus#compute (looks like back to a GeForce 9400 GT, released in 2008)
those will walk away, others will come and to them money would be absolute motivator. If there's a thing humans can invent/implement, without any regulation, it'll be implemented (and often even with regulation it may be implemented)

For many commodities the opposite relation is true.

Only when the commodities are used in a high enough quantity is there enough incentive to really try to create as much of them as possible.

I don't think lobster is more scarce these days, than it was in the past. Rather the opposite.
I was the person that created the issue. It is a joke and while I understand your concerns regarding respecting open source repositories I think it is important to be aware of the context of this specific one. The company shows significant signs that it doesn't care too much about the contributions and just use this repo as a publicity stunt.

People can still look at the repository for educational purposes and search for specific real issues, it is not like I was making the code dirty by merging a PR.

Either way, I'm sorry if it ended up offending anyone, besides of course the person that decided it was a good idea to layoff most of the company and throw a 5 billion worth branding out of the window.

The add_zero_attn parameter in PyTorch is used for this, but by default their softmax is the regular kind.

CUDA multi-GPU with NVLink is pretty well tested with shared memory space. You still want to use NCCL to optimize the allocation, but many CUDA-aware libraries (and their subsequent ML tools) are capable.
Mastodon is very much my Twitter methadone, in this case.

I mean, I miss it to an extent, but it's been getting gently worse for a while anyway, and the management has been increasingly questionable (NFT avatars! That weird audio thing!), so a shift from "increasingly questionable" to "comically incompetent" just felt like accelerating the inevitable.

I had planned to go down with the ship, so to speak, but the current management is just really off-putting, and he really has let some extraordinarily unpleasant people back on. Also, if nothing else had driven me away, the API thing certainly would have; I've been using third party Twitter clients since before Twitter even _had_ a first party client (they actually bought the client I used and ruined it, so I moved to another, back in the day).
How would they achieve that?
Read Basic economics by Thomas Sowell. It’s gives a fantastic understanding of supply and demand, what wealth is, how it’s created, etc. Why some places prospers, and some don’t.
Nice bash.org theme, really brings back the 2000s vibes.
It seems kind of like circular logic to me.

What is the market? The market is something like the returns of the S&P 500 index. How do we get the returns of the market? Make a fund that tracks the S&P 500 index. Why do we have funds that use market-cap weightings? Because we want to track the market.

I guess it's not about having an equal representation of companies or industries or sectors, it's about having an equal representation of where dollars are allocated. The goal isn't to take a dollar and buy a share of each company, the goal is to take a dollar and buy more of the companies that other people own more of and less of the ones they don't?

My point is market-cap weighted index funds are an investment strategy and not some neutral default thing that people seem to think they are (or maybe I'm projecting).

> but there likely is a correct way to do it with a hammer.

No, there isn't. Because the correct way is to use a screwdriver. There is certainly a way to do it with a hammer, same as there is a way to write a webserver in brainf__k. Doesn't mean that way is good or should be done.

> Sorry to be blunt, but having coworkers like you make the job really annoying.

Bluntness is fine. I will be blunt as well: Having to fix code full of hammers used to tighten screws is a lot more annoying than having colleagues who try to prevent a codebase full of hammers in the first place.

> I reached out for clarification on various policies - what about bonded plastic + paper, how clean, mixed plastics in bottle assemblies, unlabeled products, etc and they weren't able to answer.

If you want to get the real answers to these questions, you need to reach out to the organization that hauls your trash and recyclables. Bonus if they also operate the sorting, but either way, they should know.

California has high targets for solid waste diversion, in genreral and for specific categories. [1] I don't know how many sanitary districts meet 2011 AB341's policy goal of 75% by 2020, but in light of that goal, I don't think San Jose is an outlier within California. With high goals, the trash haulers are doing extensive sorting, figuring out what items are common in the garbage stream and finding ways to recycle them.

It is a function of priorities and volume though. Where I live now in WA, there isn't enough volume to justify a lot of effort in diversion, especially since there's no state mandate making it a priority. It's easy and not very expensive to send everything on a train to Oregon, so that's what happens.

Okay. Call it what you want. Do you really think Firefox will hesitate to implement this, when considering the "partnership" they have with Google?
But better more consistent data - which is what I want from SO.

I don't think so. Even if it's impossible to exclude it from the builds, they can just remove it from the JavaScript global scope or something.
No idea, I just said I wanted to try this out and see how it performs.

Doesn’t VRAM amount limit the size of the model you can load? I’m not talking about training just inference. I also pointed out these are not the greatest GPUs available, just that the advantage they have is being able to address more memory since on those machines is a shared block between system and GPU.
Basically the only ads I click are in search results. If I'm looking for something and the correct answer is the same as the ad right above it, I click the ad. Currently I primarily use Ecosia as my search engine and I'd like them to make money, so if the ad is the correct answer anyway, I use that link.

Other than that... No, I'm newer clicking on ads.

In the article they write:

> Social websites need to differentiate between real user engagement and fake engagement.

No, they really don't. Why would they? They have a platform, you can buy ad space on that platform, it's not the job of the website to provide you with engagement numbers. You run an ad campaign for a given period, you track if sales increase during that time, if they don't your campaign was no good. I'm also okay with tracking sales directly from each campaign, have a tracking code for that campaign, but not the user/customer, that fine. The obsession with tracking everything single little detail back to a person is becoming increasingly obnoxious.

Programming has changed a lot in 60 years, but not much in 40 years. By the early 80s, at least the workflow was fixed: type code on keyboard, read code on monitor, compile code, make cup of coffee, compile failed, debug code, you used the wrong brace, dummy.

> We need more imagination and more bold deviations from the norm

This is what I reacted on, a bit too compactly - apologies. Let me unzip.

My problem is that this statement 1) feels so far removed from reality, 2) I'm so much interested in this space that this hurts.

Why would you recommend others to throw out the good ideas of decades of research just to be hip? Evolution doesn't work that way. Humans didn't evolve by throwing away state-of-the-art apes. Evolution happens by changing one or few bits at a time and iterating while selecting for the good. This means there will be many programming languages that look just like those before them - at least to the untrained eyes.

Mutable value semantics is one of the most fascinating ideas in programming. It's like the good parts of functional programming without the bad parts. I'm pretty certain it will revolutionize programming. To dismiss it as being close to existing languages blows my mind.

I get that it's hard for any language to take hold without being 10x better. At the same time, it feels naive to build a 10x better language without keeping the good parts of existing languages. Not removing good ideas is as important as adding good ideas.

Also, humans are 'stateful', switching costs are real. 10x better not only includes the upsides but also the downsides. Hence, it feels like a sane strategy to not only maximize the upsides of new ideas, but at the same time minimize the downsides of not only removed good ideas but also changes in general, to minimize switching costs.

That’s a pretty dumb example. People clearly want safety features in cars. Seatbelts existed well before they were mandated.

They shouldn’t be mandated but people should wear them anyway.

> No regulation of alcohol use any age anywhere any time.

I’m fine with that too. If someone is drunk and belligerent there’s plenty of other reasons to arrest them.

But having a beer in the park is banned because you’re worried about a bunch of winos?

> No rules for smoking any age any time anywhere. And so on. Pretty soon it would be a mess for everyone.

Having restrictions for children is orthogonal. That’s us as a society deciding that children are not capable of making informed decisions.

We’re not with them 24/7 so we as a society set rules for what we allow them to do when we are not around.

On that topic, I think it’s fine for a parent to give alcohol to their child. That’s the parents decision. But that doesn’t mean I think we should have 10 year olds buying 40’s.
For reasons you already stated, he'll likely not ship anything serious, except more logo changes and various poorly cooked reasons to ask for more money.

That's exactly why the stock analogy doesn't work. People don't buy algorithms, they buy products - such as detectors or predictors. You necessarily have to sell judgement alongside the algorithm. So debating the merits of an algorithm in a vacuum, when the issue being raised is the human harm caused by detector products, is the strawman.

When Robots Take the Wheel: What Happens to Our Sense of Purpose?
Picture this: It's 2030. You wake up in the morning, not to the shrill sound of an alarm clock, but to the soft glow of sunlight filtering through your window. There's no rush, no scrambling to get ready for work. Why? Because your job, like many others, is now performed by an AI.

Sounds like a dream, right? But as we inch closer to this reality, I can't help but wonder: What happens when we're no longer defined by our work? When the robots clock in, and we're left to find a new purpose?

Work, for all its ups and downs, gives us more than just a paycheck. It's a part of our identity, a way to contribute, a source of pride and accomplishment. If we remove that piece of the puzzle, how do we fill the void?

And what about our sense of self-worth? So much of our society is built around the idea of earning your keep. If a robot takes over your job, and a universal basic income covers your living expenses, how would that change the way you see yourself? Would it free us to pursue passions and hobbies, or would it leave us feeling adrift, untethered from the rhythm of a workday life?

I'm tossing this existential hot potato into your court.

How do you think the rise of automation will reshape our sense of purpose and self-worth?

Let's dive into the deep end, folks.
