>And some people can't: you can't be so good at plumbing you only have to work 1 day a week, and can think the other 6.

Sure. But my point wasn't that "all professions/people should have that", but that we should let researchers and thinkers, to research and think, as opposed to bloating their day to day work with bureucratic and "dog and pony" show BS.

In the case of researchers this would be equivalent to letting the plumber do actual plumbing, as opposed to having them attend BS meetings and file increasingly more reports and perform BS rituals some idiots in management create as requirements to justify their salaries.

As we know that this less the case, as you go back in the decades. The administrative "BS" part of academic work has skyrocketed, to the detriment of the actual work.

I just looked it up because I have no idea how big the music industry is, and…

US$26.2 billion globally in 2022 according to IFPI, and US$31.2 billion according to Statista.

Other than Netflix, I think FAANG just doesn't care that much about such a small market (the market being "actually producing it", given they're already part of the previous numbers for selling and streaming it).

And of course, both A's and the N of FAANG have their own commissioned TV/film content.
I am not sure if operating margin is indicative of anything but the strength of accounting department.

This. I'm paying for maps API as have sites that display it on pages + the directions requests.

Some sites we added it as an image to avoid this. Some sites got flagged as weren't allowed to do this and others have been ignored.
It's process lock-in applied to the real world. Sad.
The problem is the intersection between C programmers competent and tenacious enough to drive it though, and those who really care about CMYK image editing. Maybe both large populations, but the overlap? And also the population of people who make that their number one priority and not, say, working on LibreOffice.
Yes, it's been everywhere. But -- rightly -- not as hyped as on the overexcitable corners of the internet who want to follow every little bit of news on the subject (because, I guess, they don't care about the quality of the information? Personally I would rather wait and see what happens when experts have time to apply expertise and rigor to the topic.)
Stobe's videos got me through lockdown. Was so sad to hear he had died. Stunning videos, huge character, and so much soul in the journeys he went on.
Dutch is a low-hanging fruit though, ain't it? Closely related Germanic language with heavy English influence post-war?

edit: To make the implied question explicit, I guess it might do well on other similar Germanic languages (say Norwegian) but struggle beyond that? Or?

I would say technology wise, you don't need to launch with more than a VM for hosting if frugality is important to you. That way your costs don't explode. I would put the rest of my money into the sales pipeline. I think the requirements for initial scale are usually grossly overestimated, and the throughput of a simple $30 VM underestimated. Unless I built my stack out of mollasses, or I was anticipating 1000s of concurrent users, concurrent being the important part, then I wouldn't touch cloud stuff personally.
Thanks, I figured this out accidentally during the weekend while playing.
I'm sure this technology is going to dissuade some people from publishing. Why bother if it is going to be regurgitated to everyone and their dog for $10 a month.
I don't get where you're going. Your initial take is that your ICE route in Germany was slow. Indeed because Germany has not a lot of dedicated high speed train track and it has a lot of stops.
That is why the TGV example is brought up, as it runs on dedicated track. 1h45min for 400km (500km by road) from city centre to city center is unbeatable, and you just need to show up 5 min before train departure. That is why there is no flights from Strasbourg to Paris anymore.

Ah but to play devil's advocate, consumer rights only kicks in when you "take ownership" of something. I am sure that in the hive contract somewhere it says that you do not own it and just have a limited-use license so you are not technically a "consumer" of their service but some sort of licensed "service installation" or some other legal bullshit or sleight of hand that means they have zero obligations.
Not really, you don't even need a specific language feature to model RAII, except for some basic ones like function lambdas to make it ergonomic to use.

It also doesn't really have anything to do with Haskell, it really is language agnostic.
> May this serve as a good reminder to treat all people with decency and an amount of respect if not kindness. There’s exactly one right way to treat a person, as a person-an end unto his/it/herself.

And in the scenario where that if you have a neighbor who decides to have his apartment windows open and TV on loud till 3am? I've tried speaking to him, wrote him a letter, yet he's ignored all. I'm now looking in to taking him to court.

I always hold respect for everything and everyone, but the naivety is wearing thin, and I start to disagree. If you start and continue to disobey the rules of common decency, consideration frankly you don't deserve nice or respect.

If we lived in a truly harmonic world where problems could be squished with respect, kindness; sure. Otherwise it's moot and that line is a puff piece that falls on it's feet leaving yourself to suffer while you accept that they can get away with the conflicts.

Sure, you could say this is the most respectful option than say smashing down the door and smashing the TV with a hammer.

I think this wouldn't work, because many experiments need such specific equipment and expertise, that it would be hard to find labs that already have said equipment.
The great thing is even LLMs who only take text input still can yield better results than doctors. Think about a healthcare system which utilizes transformers working on images etc.
Well having come from the hippy age I have no particular answers, just unreasonable ambitions. Peace man.
It’s not proof of anything, but it’s suggestive. The only other known materials that show that degree of diamagnetism are superconductors. That magnet is tiny!
Indeed, a friend of my was running experiments on quantum computing - the first 18 months on each run of his tests, as he moved between jobs and universities, was just setting up the necessary refrigeration systems (and generally building them from scratch each time).

Only then could he even start building the experiment - total time to run it all seems to run across years.
Which is why one simple way to clear up a lot of the ambiguity would be to make the "working" sample available for a few other trusted 3rd parties to run some quick tests on.
> there is an optional subtle light behind each string that illuminates as the hammers strike.
> activated by solenoids

Professional pianist here. Undoubtedly the toy illumination concept may be useful to someone; that’s fine. But they seem to be positioning this as a bespoke high-end instrument. I’m confused.

But replacing the action with solenoids? The double-escapement action of the modern grand piano is a thing of beauty. Reliable and nuanced; it’s irreplaceable. The tactile feedback, repetition rate, and feel offered by a well-regulated action is so essential to refined pianistic technique.

I wish them well; but I won’t hold my breath waiting for this to materialize. I’m not sure it should. Undoubtedly there is room still to innovate in piano design. Beethoven himself was closely allied with designers and manufacturers of the day after all. But LEDs in the style of gaming computers and solenoids?
Given your firsthand experience and the industry's evolving nature, do you think there have been any significant shifts in Google Maps' monetization approach since your time working on it?
US international with AltGr dead keys is wonderful for this - you get the “standard” US layout plus easy access to accented characters for Spanish and French via the right Alt key (AltGr if it’s so labeled).

Mostly-US layout means no finger contortions to type things like brackets (square and curly) or backslashes, which was always a painful thing in e.g. latam layouts for me.
One thing I think people are missing, is that labs replicate other experiments all the time as part of doing their own research. It's just that the results are not always published, or not published in a like-for-like way.

But the information gets around. In my former field, everyone knew which were the dodgy papers, with results no-one could replicate.
>so there’s no benefit in allowing them access.

Well, you're helping improving the model.

A couple notes on where I differ/concur from OP:

1. ahrefs is absolutely worth its price in gold.

2. IMHO intercom is overpriced relative to competitors depending on how you use it, with the caveat that I hate in-app messaging widgets and consider them a blight on the modern web. (HelpScout is my preferred app.)

3. I deeply miss my Free AWS Credits Era.
Glad to hear that! We’re using Hasura (started before Supabase was a thing, otherwise we’d be using Supabase) and their Rails inspired migration is quite good. However, we’ve run into the problem of modifying functions and views that are dependent on other things (often views and custom functions). It’s a real bear to make changes - it involves dropping multiple views/functions (in the correct order) before applying the new migration - and then carefully adding it all back and hoping nothing breaks.

I don’t like the solution of “stop using views and functions” as I prefer to use use the full power of Postgres (everything close to the data, less application level logic, great plugins). Not sure what approach should be taken to creat a state based migration solution, but it feels like the tech around Postgres, language servers, MML, etc has matured enough to solve the issue in an automated way.
> Whether or not that happens regularly, I'm not really sure.

All older machines (e.g. PowerPC Macs) mapped the I/O ports to an area of the "regular" address space. They probably still do it for legacy reasons. I think only s390 got rid completely of I/O ports because they never implemented PCI, only PCIe.
There's a bit of a difference between calling for repeal of affirmative action (publicly), and effectively calling for ethnic cleansing (under a pseudonym).

It is analogous to spending half your time writing tests when developing software. Yes it slows you down in the very short term, but in the medium and long term it speeds you up as you have confidence in the code and there aren't bugs lurking everywhere.

We use google maps for our non profit event and for the first time this year we had a small charge for our once a year event. We have the same credit card issue even though we’re a 501c3.

Google’s UI is a complete mystery to anyone outside google that doesn’t know the lingo. It seems to keep changing too.
Another stupid thing they've done is to use local language for street and place names. Why the hell even have a phone language then? Just switch everything over to whatever language people are speaking in my immediate vicinity then! There is a reason I have chosen English as the language of my phone, because that's what I can read properly.
> What’s the incentive for people to allow the crawler at all?

So that LLMs can learn from it? Profit is not the only thing that motivates people. I’ve spent years contributing to Stack Overflow to help people solve their problems, with the understanding that they had an open data policy and anybody could access the data dump easily to build things with it. It pisses me off that they are now trying to lock that information away where LLMs can’t access it. The whole reason to contribute is to help people. Locking that information away instead of exploiting this new channel to help people more effectively is antithetical to the reason I contributed in the first place.
I don't think the exception point is accurate; I think it didn't take off because C didn't make exception recovery idiomatic (signal handlers are not idiomatic) and C++ followed C's approach, so the major C++ runtime libraries disabled exceptions.

Floating point exceptions worked well enough in Delphi. The most common exception in practice is divide by zero and it's usually a programming error.
Right but digital map allows you to zoom in and on street level of zoom there is no longer name clutter. There is no need to remove those details to just leave swathes of empty space
JSON-LD and Why I Hate the Semantic Web (2014)
I see many comments wondering why the original authors do not reveal their synthesis process.

The reason is simple. They work for a private company. Not a university. Not a public lab.

They do not reveal the process for the same reason than openAI does not reveal its process. It is because they are sitting on a quadrillion dollars opportunity and they want to grab it.

Similarly as OpenAI, many initiatives are trying to make an open source alternative so they have a risk of not profiting from their extraordinary invention.
> i actually agree with this sentiment quite strongly. part of the reason gender identity and dysphoria, queerness, and fluid gender roles are so despised by conservatives and religious fellows, especially when it comes to masculinity, is that it threatens the dominant power structure of the last few thousand years.

No, it's because it's all total mental delusion, and we stand up for the truth above coddling people who should be receiving mental health treatment. You cannot be half a man and half a woman unless you're in the tiny proportion of people with an intersex genetic disorder. It has nothing to do with power structure and nothing to do with religion.

>sex work, and women’s empowerment is especially looked down upon. what else is labour but selling your body, yet somehow a woman is a slut to be shamed, and simultaneously the object of sexual desire.

Prostitution is despised because it is fundamentally exploitative of everyone involved, and bad for the stability of society. The origins of the taboo probably also involve the very high level of venereal disease that accompanied it until very recently. And it's not like that problem has been entirely solved either.

>men need these latent structured in place to remain a) powerful and b) keep their sense of worth and identity.

Delusional.

>why else is being gay or “throwing like a girl” insults every western boy heard in the 90s?

Boys don't want to be seen as girlish for the same reason that girls in the 90s (and the 2000s, and the 2010s, and probably the 2020s too, by the way) don't want to be seen as boyish. When boys go through puberty they are competing with each other to be masculine. When girls go through puberty they are competing with each other to be feminine.

In our town a dentist was making bank pulling teeth of poor kids and collecting Medicaid checks.

Also post Covid a new dentist said I had built up 6 cavities, so I went somewhere else and they said it was maybe 1 but that if I did fluoride rinse it might just heal over the next year.
For those people who equate the internet with Facebook I guess it is a loss.
On that topic, I’d love to see database logic presented in a folder like structure in the way that we’re used to with code (instead of just hidden in migration files. Maybe language server can help with that.

> Lucky they're not the ones accepting patches. If upstream adopts it they'd have to disable support in their build, which seems unlikely.

Upstream libvirt would probably be Red Hat employees. :) It would not be disabled in the RHEL build, but note that Red Hat does disable a lot of features of QEMU in RHEL. About this:

> RH usually have a lot of not-upstream patches though (at least they do for the kernel, grub, and qemu, so I assume the same for libvirt) which complicates things a bit.

Most of the patches in kernel and QEMU are backports from upstream.

For QEMU there are 20-30 patches not-upstream patches and they're mostly configuration. For the kernel it's a bit more but not many, and Libvirt probably has even fewer.

HIPPA doesn’t allow it (yet?), you have to do it yourself.
At longer distances speed matters. Sure you can take a 'land cruise' vacation, which is fun in itself. However many vacations are to something and the journey is just a means to that end. You only live so long, travel time is wasted.
In science we work with the best we can. At this point we have zero proof of inteligent DNA, omniscient creators or directors. This paper is good, but it doesn't add any breakthrough to what we know: virus-like particles taking DNA from one individual to another, ocasionaly jumping between species. At random.

Also, in science, we work from null hypothesis and build on it. You can't work towards an hypothesis like "there is a supra-inteligence". You work from "there's nothing", analyze what you see and propose the simplest and more probable explanation. At the current state proposing a supra-inteligence raises more scientific questions than answers.

All the scientific evidence we have at this moment points toward blind, random, stupid and un-directed evolution as the best explanation, thus we should ethically teach that. If you want to hypothesize otherwise, bring proof and observations that can't be explained with the current model.

Philosophically and specially theologically you can say whatever you want, as long as the framework is internally consistent. For example, the "We live in a simulation" hypothesis is quite consistent, but we can't prove it, for or against. Nobody stops you from researching about inteligent creators, inteligent DNA, etc. But you shouldn't teach your hypothesis, like we don't talk kids about the "simulation hypothesis" <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis> or "zoo hypothesis"<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoo_hypothesis>.
What kind of storage limit is there? What are you storing?
> RAII uses destructors.

That seems loaded enough in your mind that it aliases to untrue. RAII uses some sort of type-associated operation. How that type association is reified is up to the language.

> you need special functions for construction and destruction

That is not true. You don't need any special function for construction, and for destruction you only need a hook. Which is no more special (and arguably less so) than the hook you need for either defer or errdefer.

> Destructors are a language feature that is even more ad-hoc than errdefer.

I'm not sure you understand what the expression "ad-hoc" means. "errdefer" is an ad-hoc feature, it has a very narrow and specific purpose. RAII is a much more generic feature, for instance it subsumes both defer and errdefer, as well as other patterns of resource management.

> errdefer is not just used for destroying objects either

Good news: neither is RAII. Object destruction is the hook onto which RAII attaches, not the purpose.
I understood that they have disclosed the process, and are actively advising some of the groups to support replication.

However, they acknowledge that the process is difficult to get right and claim that they have had to run it many times to get the results that they are claiming.

I don't have any clue about materials science, but I can imagine why this would be the case.
That is something that I have struggled to convey. Working in a scientific field looks a lot different than just reading things from that scientific community. Sub-fields and up real small and you know what is going on, what the problems are, and who are what kind of players in your field.
> "take ownership"

I recently started reading poetry, by chance of discovering a small, specialist poetry library near my office. It's been really enriching, and I've felt my appreciation and the enjoyment for poetry grow exponentially after I let go and stopped trying too hard. It used to always seem to be impenatrable to me, until I just accepted that some things would resonate with me and others weren't and not even everything by a specific poet would. But it's low commitment to give things a go.

I've mainly been astounded by something that, when I say it out loud seems obvious: everything I've felt, good and bad, has been felt by countless others and that's only counting those who wrote poems about it. And it stretches across at least as long as written history does. There's comfort in that alone for me.
