Yes. I work on a project that calls into Julia from Python, and the dynamic packaging has been (IMO) a nightmare. It would be so excellent if I had a static library to link against instead!
Mastodon isn't unique in this area... but it certainly is a benefit to X/Twitter for this story to get legs.
I've found it remarkably useful, despite often being a bit tongue-in-cheek.

The insight on mirrored surfaces was especially interesting. I remember seeing a staged photo of some Trump kid & spouse with their own kid playing in a living room with a spotless mirrored table and was like "oh, hey!" Lots of fun bits like that.

... Actually, the entire Trump thing was fascinating with Fussell's instruction guiding one's experience of it. "Prole" fit on expensive suits. Middle-as-fuck taste in home decor ("if you're rich it means everything's huge and covered in gold, right?"). Still haven't figured out how much of it's genuine and how much of it's an affectation for marketing/personal-branding reasons.

He got his hope-for-the-future "Class X" all wrong—just an upper-middle youth fashion wave, mostly—but otherwise it's still a surprisingly-useful tool for analysis, considering how old and half-jokey it was.
You're right, of course, about how most fortunes are made these days. That's especially what you see in a country where education is poor and the production of fools outpaces the production of wealth.

I refuse to make money in any way related to gulling people. But I do own stock in a tobacco company, for instance, which I justify since I smoke. And an oil company. Actually, according to my friends, I have a remarkably evil and non-ethical stock portfolio.
A part of me feels the same way. Hopefully, that would at least reduce the amount of misogyny they impose on real women, anyway.
In case anyone was wondering what news story Musk was trying to bury with his latest stupid PR stunt: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/07/tesla-misses-deadline-t...
If he was altruistically trying to save humanity from Twitter why didn't he just turn twitter off when he bought it?

I guess it could be because he didn't single handedly buy Twitter. IIRC he contributed $15B of the $44B acquisition. I guess he can't turn it off without his co-investors holding him accountable?
The question concerns outliers ... how did the change manage them?

I cancelled my subscription. I listen to Spotify all the time and think it's great... but it keeps getting worse. For example, it used to suggest tracks to add to a playlist, now it has replaced that feature with an 'enhance' button that forces their choices on your playlist.

And I'm done with optional arbitrary price increases.
My guess would be that text layout and measuring is something that's very easy to offload to the browser, yet, if you want to do this without, you're pulling in a whole lot of other dependencies (text rendering is quite complex) that you maybe cannot reasonably call from JS.
a TSA lock is nothing better than a fancy zip tie. except, when the TSA inspects your back, they will not use a new zip tie after cutting yours off. so you're SOL if you were hoping the zippers would stay together, but they will at least re-lock the TSA lock so the zippers will stay together.
As the Admiral Cloudberg article mentioned above notes, it was actually a metric (liters) to metric (kilograms) conversion error. (Plus fuel gauges that failed in an unsafe mode, and flying with clearly broken fuel gauge.)

Honestly, I don't think this is captured in "the sources". Keep in mind you're dealing with a culture here, much like with policing issues.

Doctors don't hold each other accountable, and assume that if there's an issue with a patient, it's the patient's fault; they're being unreasonable, and some poor doctor must be putting up with their bullshit.

Then you have the very real truth that addicts don't always make the best patients. Further they tie up an inordinate amount of medical resources. It doesn't just stop and end there. Medical abuse is rampant, in any case, and with several other conditions, why would they leave drug addicts out? There's an environment of hostility from both sides - addicts who are fed up with treatment from doctors, and doctors angry with addicts; the fighting can cause a feedback loop.

Doctors are some of the most anti-addict people on the face of the earth. If you took a blind poll of doctors and got their true thoughts, I think a shocking number would be in favor of euthanasia via medical inaction. They are not trustworthy on these issues. Believe it or not experiencing the worst of society, often through bigoted and stereotypical lens, does not make someone a rational decision maker. You're more likely to find bitter, angry hotheads that just want to punish the bad people they've come to hate.

Getting back to "the sources" here, there really aren't great sources, because no one reporting has a motive to talk about this. You will see some quiet conversations, but they don't go far. Doctors are respected and addicts aren't. Medical policy is written by medical workers (the ones I'm criticizing). IMO the media isn't great at holding doctors accountable. They're getting better with police, but they used to be horrible there too.

Media, government, doctors, and insurance companies are way more of one team than people realize. With police we only heard stories for the longest time. Some of them seemed like conspiracy theories, but the number and magnitude of these interactions mount. This is true here, too. People are getting abused by their doctors. If you ask around you'll hear stories.

If you talk to drug addicts, who've had experience with doctors, and shockingly, even people with very moderate use (even one time!), you'll hear the truth: You are dealing with a temperamental, sketchy piece of work that's also a powerful bureaucrat that will take your different lifestyle as carte blanche to refuse to treat you and ignore your medical issues... and it doesn't even matter if you quit!

Just talk to someone that's gone through the system. You will hear conflicting reports, just like a huge percentage of people never have bad interaction with police, but there's a lot of people out there that know exactly what I'm talking about. There's sides of society not everyone sees.

Think about how bad you sound speaking up and there's massive chance you sound even worse in the story.
As soon as I deleted the app from my phone and established a "can only view Twitter on my laptop" rule, I basically stopped using it.
At this point, an economist would tend to usher in the argument made by Thorstein Veblen... Yet in a couple of ways, Birkins do not look like classic Veblen goods.
I doubt there is truth to the common trope that "REAL rich people don't buy X/Y/Z". Its a No True Scotsman argument. In actuality, Kelly / Birkin are appreciated by a wide spectrum of people, even folks who are "0.1%ers". Just like "0.1%ers" buy luxury cars. Hell, Bill Gates (a "0.1%er" squarely) basically lobbied for a law just so he can import a Porsche 959. Jerry Seinfeld has a huge car collection. If you want to argue "old money", Prince Harry has a Jaguar E-type and a F-Type. Luxury goods are enjoyed by the leisure class, period, because they have disposable income and like nice things.
I rented a Tesla while on a business trip a few weeks back (not by choice, the rental agency just gave it to me in the Economy class) and I absolutely hated the UI. The basic car interface has converged on its standard form after decades of desiggn, and that means that when I get into most cars I immediately know how to adjust the various settings to my preferences. Having to spend 15 minutes sitting in a rental car parking lot digging through the menu at 1am just so I could move the wing mirrors and seat was an incredible pain. All the settings I care about were like 3 levels deep in some menu, and that sucks! Sure having a lot of knobs in view isn't as "aesthetic" from a premium product perspective, but damn does it make it easy to change things quickly.
Not sausage, but I'd put money on there being at least one "Nike" greek restaurant out there.

You are implying that my argument isn't from experience when it is. My argument is that you are biased and projecting your own self-control problems on others and treating your solution as a universal truth to be learned. You are also conflating people looking at their phones to your previous drug addiction.

>And please don't use what a person has said

Ok, I'll remember to not include any topics or details anyone ever brings up in conversation. I don't think any more or less of you based on your past you mentioned. I'm just attributing it to your bias.

Criticism is not disrespectful. I should probably stop replying to your messages however, this is going somewhere unhelpful so I apologize for that.

All this being said, if your disdain for that behavior keeps you personally away from bad behavior, I could see how promoting that strategy internally and externally is important to you. Disdain can be a useful tool.
If that is his intention then he is doing a lousy job. Instead of simply shutting down the servers and never turn them back on, he has given other platforms plenty of time to rise, while loosing users to them little by little, this means communities can coordinate, trial and error, and get the taste of which other platform to migrate to, where they can continue this supposedly dangerous behavior.

If, on the other hand, he had simply shut of the servers many (most?) of these communities would have simply vanished for good, and many of their members might have been “liberated” from social media for good.

Overall, APX is providing 10% fewer instructions, 10% fewer loads and more than 20% fewer stores.

Also adding pop2/push2 instructions for moving state faster.

And adding more powerful conditional instructions (loads/stores/compares) and flag-suppression.

I still think it's important to note that the blog's work is shoddy. The fact that this blog post is #1 on HN means that multiple people will read SMTM's other blog posts, which contain several falsehoods that they've refused to fix.

The government is chosen by the Knesset, and the prime minister is a member of Knesset - and usually, his entire cabinet is also made up of MKs of coalition parties. So a >50% coalition in parliament is equivalent to a government.

However, there is the 49% of parliament that constitutes the opposition. Israel used to have norms where the opposition had some balancing power. Today they have absolutely none.

There are no checks and no balances on the government/parliamentary majority except for the courts.

Good.
I will never ride an EUC because of a design flaw due to physics: in order to slow down you must first accelerate.

The EUC works by tilting you forward to speed up, and tilting you backward to slowdown. So the control system has to always leave a margin in case you need to slow down or if max power is reduced. But if the battery dies faster than expected or you reach a steep downhill while already at top speed...too bad, nothing the system can do to keep you from faceplanting at max speed.

No thanks. Wheels are cheap, I'll take at least two.
Back when I took AI courses in the early 90s, ML was anything that was trained by data. It did not refer exclusively to dense numerical or statistical methods. It included decision trees, which I think of as being closer to the symbolic camp...
An msr is a "model specific register", a chicken bit can configure cpu features.

I wouldn't trust the US public to plan a lunch outing, never mind NASA's budget. This is basically just a reflection of which blockbuster movies they watched in the late 1990's and early 2000's, not an informed opinion with knowledge of NEO surveillance and the challenges in diversion.

I'd add that if you want NASA to prioritize something that extreme, you need to support a significant funding increase over many years.
A complicating factor is that there are at least 2 different tours for different sections of the interface (e.g. high-level dashboards vs plan interface).

Do you think it would be better to infer from one tour dismissal that a user never wants to see another tour for anything else?

Right!

It's one thing to compare languages in the abstract, for e.g., to compare and contrast iteration or exceptions or whatever. It's a different thing to compare languages for doing something specific -- in this case, scientific computing. If someone want to get something done in a realistic ( or affordable) time frame, then things like like libraries, community, and documentation become especially important.

Why is it inevitable that men will never be loved by another human? Given the gender ratio is approximately 50%-50%, that promiscuity decreases with age (so pickiness decreases), I'd expect that anyone (barring the small % of severely mental ill) that wants a relationship can (eventually) get one.

I feel like the vast majority of incels will eventually be in a relationship. It's just they that are in a bad place mentally or have some genetic disadvantage. Like the article says, having an AI girlfriend may be a crutch to stay in this state for longer.

I realize this is becoming a demographic issue in some countries e.g. China where there are too many men.
I don't disagree with your overall point, but some of your examples are hardly Veblen anymore. Or perhaps we have very different definitions of upper-middle class. I live in what I consider an upper-middle class area, where median household income is about 3-5x the state's as a whole. Everybody has an iPhone and you can't throw a rock without hitting a Tesla/Mustang/Corvette. Jordans I won't comment on since I know nothing about sneakers, but I would argue the other brands are all no longer Veblen. My MIL used to buy only mid-range Samsung phones that would become slow or lose significant battery within a couple of years, necessitating a replacement. My wife finally talked her into getting an iPhone, and she's been using the same one for 4+ years and has no desire to replace it, because it's still working fine. And similarly for all the other people in my family and their iPhones. I personally still rock a Xs. So for us and millions of other people, iPhones are actually a better value than most alternatives. Similarly, the Mustang and Corvette are usually considered to be excellent values within their class. Sure they're toys, but they deliver a lot more performance per dollar than most fancier sporty cars. Tesla has been and arguably still is the best electric car brand. Add in the recent price reductions and the reintroduction of tax credits, some Tesla models now have final costs below the average new car price. Hardly a status indicator when you buy a car that costs less than many Hondas and Toyotas.
>Additionally, if there was a nationwide push to nuclear power, we'd have cheap, clean energy -- putting a sizable dent in both clean drinking water & climate change at the same time.

Nuclear power is prohibitively expensive even in a best-case scenario. All estimates that have indicated otherwise simply ignore most of the costs. Political decisions socialize the costs to the state and future generations. Even in the US.

Read up on the current costs of closed plants like Rancho Seco in the US, recent developments around EDF in France, and the statements from Sweden's riksgalden for more info about this. TLDR, you are paying for closed nuclear plants already, and so will your great great great grandchildren. They will pay all their lives for plants that won't give them a single watthour of power. This is a monumentally bad idea IMO.

How about we instead make a nationwide push on things like hydrogen gas from seawater and solar?

When the hydrogen gas is burnt, it creates salt-free H2O as a byproduct, and in the meantime it's a good energy storage solution to solve the intermittence of renewables.

Your grandchildren will praise you instead of curse you.
