How about this? I keep a running probability (e.g. a 32bit float) for the successful outcome of each future event I have absolutely no idea about. At first I make it 50%, but I gradually adjust with each result, such that I aim to minimize my bias. It might sound silly, but at the minimum it would encode some information about the kind of events I'm typically asked to predict. And I do expect it could end up something like 0.5642635 for a particular time in my life.

It’s because people take their BMI and become shocked about where they land. It takes like a small beer gut to land in to obese.

BMI isn’t generally used as a picture of overall health anyway. More often, it’s used as a measure for health issue probability. As Texas BMI raises, it can be used to calculate the increasing chances of a huge variety of health problems.
Careful. The cost of a fab makes it very difficult for competitors to start up. Working in a field with only a few competitors seems attractive, but you risk specializing in skills that only few businesses worldwide can leverage.

Okay…so it accepts more grammars than other parser generators. That doesn’t seem massive if I’m being honest. If you had said mehnir works with your IDE (navigating C code inside bison drove me nuts), and had good support for error recovery and idk, gave you syntax highlighting for free, I’d agree. But a minor upgrade in grammars? Not exactly Christmas here.

I have a question for you then: why is it that so many projects that are not performance bound, that are not low level systems projects, why do they use Rust and not OCaml? OCaml had a 22 year head start after all.

The vision of an internet that isn't a business tool is a vision of a much smaller and less relevant internet.
That's great if everything you're running plays nice with journald or generates logs in the same structured format, but the problem I always run into with production systems is the mess of various formats coming out of each piece of a running app... I find myself just wanting a folder full of plain text files I can grep/cut/awk my way through, however imperfect that may be.

At this point I've used many different proprietary web based cloud log viewer apps that are slow, glitchy, and each have their own special query syntax. Theoretically I can leverage them for super powerful queries against structured logs, but instead I find myself using different ones frequently enough that I never master the syntax and have to read through the docs to do silly basic searches.

This is a pretty slippery slope you are getting on. Hiring a subcontractor is common business practice for many purposes. What you are proposing will essentially make anybody a criminal, because there's always a way to second guess one's intentions.

What your point is however illustrating is how wrong the union legislation is. It's essentially forcing free people into organization they didn't choose. I'm not questioning the usefulness of trade unions in old days of industrialization, but now those just became cancers that suck out resources from businesses and consumers

Honestly, I don’t think code reviews make a ton of sense. If the things wrong with the code are so deep as to warrant a “teaching moment” then whatever help I try to give is probably so fundamental that it is unlikely to find purchase. I think we would be better off encouraging consistent and quick refactoring rather than diligent review. For example, a dev puts up a pr, things are technically fine but there are a lot of architectural issues, rather than waste time trying to teach them to make the changes, I would refactor them as part of another story, showing the “correct” way if they care and ensuring the code base is better off even if they don’t. Not to mention code reviews slow down dev and qe soooo much

You don't need laws to enforce this change or behavior, you just need the Amazon drivers to show solidarity and unionize. They can demand (and get!) far more change than the government will ever legislate. The threat of a strike and labor action is far scarier to Amazon than nosey lawmakers that can just be silenced with enough campaign donations.
The lengths that American businesses go to avoid the cost of labor is beyond stupid.

Henry Ford paid his employees well, bc he treated his employees as an investment, not as a line-item cost on an excel spreadsheet, and new that higher wages would mean a more prosperous middle class that would buy more model Ts. [1]

The US economy has become extractive in nature - extracting as much value from the resources available (humans included) rather than betting on growth and optimism. This has been the case since 2008, its like c-suite managers are emotionally scarred, and it trickles down to lower level managers, training them to adopt this broken mentality.

No wonder quality of life is declining in America over time.

On one hand, I like the publishing policy of NIH, because more dissemination of information is a good thing.

But on the other, so many people gloss over or are just blatantly unaware that NIH specifically doesn't endorse anything about anything published there, that they're just a clearing house. And then people either infer authority from the domain, or they use that to consciously or subconsciously push their belief.
So the law as written regards keeping records of inter-office memoranda, but the regulators have cheerfully expanded the scope of this to include essentially all communication by bank employees (except maybe phone calls).
True, but it's much less of a problem in physical shops. You can actually examine the merchandise. You know that the item you're paying for is literally the item that you're getting. You're dealing with the shop face-to-face, which reduces a lot of the more brazen scams. And if you have a problem, the shop is likely to do something to fix it -- and if they don't, you have realistic legal options.

In most ways, buying from a brick-and-mortar establishment is a better choice than buying online.
Shareholders are the owners of the company. I would think that's where you'd actually want the fines to hit. The shareholders should be responsible for putting in sensible leadership that doesn't get them fined.

What I’ve gathered from reading this thread is experience varies widely. One thread, Amazon sucks. Another, UPS is horrible. Another justifies it based on unionization and someone counters with highlighting FedEx’s lack of Union.

> And even though I appreciate Gemini, I wouldn't say that it is more powerful and efficient. Granted, that's not its goal either.

Correct! Gemini is a mix between an art project and a political statement. It doesn't, and is not meant to, provide significant value over the web - a quick look at the specs makes this pretty clear.

If you view it through this lens instead, it's pretty neat, though.
I think your take on Cersai would only happen in a period of the Middle Ages, with week kings and a strong church.

Right before the Middle Ages there are many examples like it, for example Charlemagne and his line. If they and the pope disagreed it was the pope that got the short end of the stick. There was also many example of viking kings and warlords converting to christianity and back again.

Right after the Middle Ages Henry the eight is another example.

Edit: The status page and home page were down for me for about 15 minutes (checked on multiple devices and networks). Now they load about half of the time, but are very slow. Might be a load issue in this region of their CDN or something. My hosted services are fine, as far as I can tell.

I'm definitely interested in how the communities build up to support this long term, assuming best conditions. I'm curious about investment into education that can lead to further economic developments (e.g. rise in engineering education due to factors like proximity to tech jobs that can persist, i.e. working at a fab (in any capacity) is good job/career to learn/work towards).

I was taught a perfect solution to this. Only ever return 200-300 from your web server (not applicable for most public APIs, though). My web server is not a gateway, not a resource access mechanism as envisioned by people in the 90s. It’s always an RPC server. REST is RPC. JSON is RPC. I let my outsourced CDN do HTTP code shenanigans, but any apps I develop are 200 all the time. Want to know if it failed? Easy!

>Being sub 12% body fat (the highest BMI that would be considered healthy) is arguably unhealthy in and of it's own

12% body fat isn't a BMI, what are you trying to say?

BMI is not supposed to bucket you into healthy or unhealthy. It is a ratio of your weight to height. You're right that there are a lot of people who are overweight but are perfectly healthy. I think your problem is that you're viewing BMI as some kind of blanket good or bad health number. It is what it is, and it's just one aspect of your physical health, which you probably shouldn't be trying to capture in a single number anyway.

Go get a physical exam from a doctor if you want something comprehensive. If you just want a general height/weight ratio, BMI is pretty good for most people.
Very tall and very short people can also have BMI's that don't make sense.
> projected real GDP growth rate for the EU in 2023 is 1.0%, when measured in euros. Right now, €1 is about $1.1, while it was around $1.0 a year ago.

Ah, I see the problem.

1% real GDP growth means €1 becomes €1.01. If, in the same time, €1 went from buying $1 to buying $1.1, then you--round trip--went from having €1 that buys $1 to €1.01 that buys $1.11.

But! That $1 doesn't buy today what it bought one year ago. (The precise point of fudgery is when I say "€1 went from buying $1 to buying $1.1." We went from one 2022 € buying one 2022 $ to one 2023 € buying one 2023 $. We deflated the euro GDP but not the exchange rate.)

TL; DR The EU is not experiencing double-digit real growth in dollar terms.

1. That's interesting, I actually never thought about that. It could work in practice and could even be parallelised! It would just download some, or most, packages twice. I'll test that, thanks.

2. Indeed, it's easier when building a small repo but with a monorepos you need to be careful about copying the /dist at the right place + the package.json to not break runtime import. I think once again it's balance between what would be perfect and what we can live with.
I live in Germany. I'm pretty sure DHL has more than 25 drivers ...
I agree. Two years ago, I tried writing data-intensive components for Python as rust extension modules. It was painful, tedious, and confusing.

I came back to it for a second try a month ago, and was blown away. PyO3 and maturin (especially maturin) are stunningly straightforward. I actually find maturin easier to use than “normal” Python packaging tools, to the extent such a thing even exists.

I really hope we will see a move towards rust, and away from extension modules written in C/C++/Fortran, just because the development experience is so much more approachable. Which is not something I thought I would say about Rust!
Supply vs. demand. The line for game development and VFX work extends around the block. You will never ever ever find good pay or treatment in those conditions. If your dream is the same as everybody else's dream, consider the cost of pursuing it.

If your goal is stable and well-paid employment, the other, much more practical option to unionizing is developing a different skillset that is valuable and in-demand. Jumping into a seller's market for labor is much better than jumping into a buyer's market.
