Suggested a 10980XE for a $4000 workstation... I would have expected a 7950X and an RTX 4080/4090 class.
Not sure I agree about Svelte's bundle size being a problem, but v4 already improved tooling quite a bit by switching to JSDoc and judicious type export limits. Intellisense for library functions, the ability to drill down seamlessly from your code to library code, and helping IDEs choose the correct import have all greatly improved.
Hi Lexi. I love seeing 17 year olds taking a deep dive into tech. You chose a great field and have a great career ahead! Keep up the good work - stay curious, work on personal projects. It gets a little harder to find the time as you get older and you'll look back on the things you're doing now and feel satisfaction for it.
I think you're fishing for a way to dismiss the concerns of the authors without understanding or addressing them, which is pointless.
I want to love Nintendo. They create such great IP and their games are time and again some of the most memorable and unique experiences you can purchase in the space. But their lawyers are relentless, and it will forever leave a foul stench on the company for me for that reason.
When the work I'm doing is the same both from home and from the said private office, I don't want to come--as simple as that. No, and no thanks.
This is interesting to me for basically the same reason — being able to send and receive ARP messages with arbitrary payloads would definitely make troubleshooting VLANs (and other L2 connectivity) easier!
That works well when I remember the sender, but I don't always notice who sent it :(
Wait for Emily Wilson (due at the end of September). Her Odyssey is easily among the great classical translations.
How do you trace what the JIT is doing in an Android app?
You're right. We're actually wasting our time ever thinking about our security or privacy, or taking any measures to protect it. You've convinced me that some security is an illusion, and that the real answer is trust.
Not only bad actors would be concerned. There is a rather small but vocal minority that values privacy extremely high. They make noise, even when a threat of identification, or of siphoning out any consequential information, is extremely low.

To avoid sabotaging their own platform, Intel should remember about that, and give no food for bad PR.

As they write in employment agreements, you should avoid any real conflicts of interests, and also any appearance of conflicts of interests, because if it gets reported in media, but you end up completely clean and conflict-free, the hard-to-repair damage to public perception already would have been done.
One suggestion, as someone who is an Infra engineer and doesn't know frontend too well anymore, the first step in the demo asks me to "Select your React platform"

I don't know what that means, and what the implication of choosing between Vite, Remix, or Next.js -- it's meaningless to me.
OTOH, the impossibility of getting UBI on the government side is actually motivating adoption: sure, you've got a central identity repository, etc, but it will never happen in our lifetime (in the US) if you need 60 senators to vote for it... This is, IMO, basically insurmountable - we've seen governments toying with UBI but I seriously doubt we'll see any government pull the trigger in any reasonable timeframe.
Unless, of course, you work for that government. Kind of the same one that put people on the Moon, made the atomic bomb, invented the internet, and other things less extraordinary than repackaging Debian ;-)

I have talked to him a couple times while working for Canonical and, while I knew his reputation of being a very Steve Jobs person, he was never an asshole with me. And the CEO was a real sweetheart. I'd think twice if he called me, but wouldn't blink if she did.

I suppose it should not surprise me as much as it does that there are people out there who are in the union set of people who have interviewed at FAANG (i.e. all of them or enough not to refer to them individually) and also interviewed at MBB (ditto). No Jane Street, though? No PEGS? No GSIBs?
Also, that "80%" had a sample size of 63; they had 361 total, but only 63 had information on the hunter's gender.

Not really, it's just a question of accounting. mmap is functionally the same as disk cache. As long as you've got the RAM, it'll run from RAM. If you really want, you can force llama.cpp not to use mmap and explicitly load everything into RAM, but there's not really any performance reason to do that - if the kernel keeps dropping your pages, you're under memory pressure anyway and "locking" that memory will probably end up either thrashing or invoking the OOM killer.

I could see the coworking space take off a bit more, cause I have a colleague not far and we could walk/bike to a tiny cozy space to work on stuff out of sake of not staying at the same desk 24/7.
I think it's wise to take the concerns of the creative community seriously - after all their "labor of love" [1] matters immensely, without it LLMs are useless.

matters not how much the coder "loved" the project, or did yoga, or that they've not made money for years, after all most book authors aren't exactly raking in the money either.

also like many thinks in life, some tools/projects/startups etc just stop being needed/used and new ones/competitors take over. there's nothing to say that since tool X is using A.I. therefore it has to be adopted by one and all; smiles all around.

google has 'right to be forgotten', also looking into 'machine unlearning' and it's common for platforms to honor user's request to remove their data / close their account.

Data visualization is a powerful tool for conveying information, trends, and insights from data in a visual format. However, not all visualizations are created equal. Some can unintentionally deceive or mislead the audience, leading to inaccurate interpretations. In this article, we will explore the concepts of data visualization, graphic lies, and misleading visuals. We will also provide valuable tips and tricks to prevent the creation and dissemination of such deceptive visuals, ensuring that data visualizations serve their purpose of accurate communication.
100% this. Remote first company and there are two offices. We get more done with in-person casual conversations than formal meetings. Our velocity from the office is significantly higher. I wish some of the other teams shared offices a few days per week.

The commute is not bad when they are localized due to the team members having worked together in the past.
That total compensation figure includes both salary and benefits (healthcare, retirement income, etc.) before taxes. A family healthcare plan could have an annual employer cost of $25k or more, plus the employee contribution.

Very interesting! I have question ( out of my experience in https://github.com/maxpert/marmot ) how do get around the boot time, specially when a change log of table is pretty large in Postgres? I've implemented snapshotting mechanism in Marmot as part of quickly getting up to speed. At some level I wonder if we can just feed this PG replication log into NATS cluster and Marmot can just replicate it across the board.
I am a bit confused by these tools. Can someone analogize what they are doing here? It somehow reminds me of the Django admin capabilities but expanded to any Typescript base technologies?

I have trouble wrapping my head around the use case for this. Is the target market existing businesses that already have APIs (probably as REST services), maybe some databases and they just want to quickly wire up some UI to it? It seems a bit heavy handed for writing an entire application.

I can imagine maybe a medium sized business where the data science, sales, marketing, customer service etc. teams want some access to the production system data in a format other than Tableau or Microsoft BI. And perhaps their engineering team is entirely focused on product development or operations and so no significant resources can be allocated. I guess this might allow more junior or jack-of-all-trades engineers to whip up basic admin features?

To be honest, even in small startups I've worked at, cranking out admin dashboards using React was just so trivial that I can't imagine paying to make it slightly easier. And looking at their code examples, it doesn't seem all that more simple. I suppose there maybe some goldilocks zone between startups that just crank that kind of stuff out and huge enterprises where entire teams exist to manage internal tools. In that zone perhaps having these kinds of platforms can expedite internal tooling creation.
Haha, this is amazing. Going to see if I'll get caught using this later today. :)
Because it seems I need to really spell it out, there are a lot of obvious and non-inventive patents being granted.
The way for Epic and other developers (especially game developers) to bypass the app store walled gardens and associated distribution tax is to go through the open web instead, delivering their software directly to consumers. Leveraging new bleeding edge browser technologies such as WebGPU and WebAssembly, it's going to be possible to distribute games and applications online that can run at near native performance as webapps. These webapps can then be pinned to the homescreen for an even more authentic app-like experience.

Yes, WebGPU isn't available on Safari yet, but when it is it will be a paradigm shift ushering in a new era of distribution of software, one where you don't have to go through the platform owner's store as the only option available to you.
I see! I apologise for my naïvitié, thanks :)
Brazil - high crime and corruption, but at least there is some democracy
Russia - totalitarian regime with no democracy and no rule of law.
India - lots of poverty and corruption, but at least there is some democracy
China - authoritarian regime with no democracy whatsoever.
South Africa - poverty and corruption.

Not very great choices. Also only Russia and China would be safe for people like Snowden or Assange.
> "Private offices with doors that close were absolutely required and not open to negotiation."

Where does this come from? It's something that sounds right, but then I look back at my parent's office jobs and pop culture from 20+ years ago and it doesn't line up. Open office spaces have been extremely common for a very very long time, with private offices reserved for higher level people.
This might be well true, but they are also likely to believe science as well. It's just the two live in an easy parallel where one isn't necessarily valued over the other-- good or bad.

In the US the camps are FIRMLY pro or against science or many other topics, so things get alot more polarized.
Artificial Intelligence Meets Artificial Regulation
refine's headless architecture offers developers the flexibility to implement their design using any UI framework to their apps. It also comes with built-in UI integrations for popular libraries like Material UI, Ant Design, Chakra UI, and Mantine.

With react-admin, you have no choice other than using Material UI for your app.
refine's provides nearly all the features of react-admin enterprise provides as open-source.

Since refine's architecture is headless, router logic is completely detached from the business logic and UI layer. So you can use refine with React Router, NextJS, Remix, or any other framework may pop-up as long as it's React based.
With react-admin, you can only use react-router and it doesn't have a real SSR support, while with refine, you can use SSR frameworks like NextJS and Remix without being limited.

Well, it’s a matter of principle.

I wouldn’t support the business of someone who was a former KKK member, or who even merely donated money to strip black people of the right to vote or marry white people or something like that.

It’s just… against my best interest to give them money when in the past they used that money against me.
Last I checked the feds treat income as an annual thing that happened a year ago. A six month period of unemployment does not mean your income is zero by their accounting.
Statistical analysis is only useful if you have enough data to analyse, so there is in fact a threshold of number of books to cross before the tool can even really exist. If you read his post, the initial goal was to get stats about typical word count, typical amount of passive speech, etc. Requiring opt-in for these broad statistics, through outrage only since this project is CLEARLY legal in the United States, means that tools like this will never exist. Which seems net bad to me.

If you are saying it should be opt-in only for the pages analyzing specific books, like the instigator of this outrage screen-shotted, well that seems to fall squarely into the critical analysis bucket, so that is also quite ridiculous.

I understand some folks being unhappy that a portion of the works were pirated, but it seems like most of the outraged would be outraged even if he personally purchased each and every ebook.

Also, if you read through the Twitter thread a lot of the authors (not 100%, but a LOT) are doing a really great job portraying themselves as "stoopid AI-fearful luddites". Many of them think the site is somehow like ChatGPT and they don't bother to dig any deeper, or really at all.
Always found it funny that software engineers think they have so much power just because of relatively high compensation. (And ease of finding new jobs- guess not so much, this year.) But pre-pandemic, how much labor power did SWEs have in determining whether or not they could work in a private office or even a cubicle as opposed on the open floor? And soon, how much power do you have to determine whether you can WFH or not?
> according my tests, Firefox does not support it at all

I just tried the text editor example in Firefox and it works fine for me, although all the newlines in my file were ignored so it looks like garbage. Maybe it assumes Windows-style line endings?

EDIT: Oh, no, it just doesn't support line endings at all? Even if I press the enter key I just get a space. Maybe it's just a proof of concept and not an actual working text editor.
But when they are in the middle of a film, they often make the film twice as long, and films these days are already awfully long. They can also give you a heart attack when they are thrice as loud as the film, and often start after there was a silence in the film.
I recall doing some Gentoo installs using -Os at least for some packages, just to see how much that would shrink binary sizes.

Documentation / wikis etc. advised against that not just for performance-of-generated-code reasons, but also because of compiler bugs using -Os was considered unreliable.

Note this was with ancient GCC (v2.9.x, early 3.x releases iirc)
I agree fully.
Your last statement invalidates the point you try to make?

Feature flag systems are usually based on a set of rules that could be serialized and evaluated locally (this is how pretty much every open source feature flag system and feature flag SaaS works). Usually it's based on some kind of UUID being hashed with a per-flag seed and bucketed after some set of targeting rules are applied to other properties passed in for that user. There are added features where you can stores large cohorts to do specific targeting and usually there's some kind of local cache added to make that look-up faster for recent users.

I'm not sure what the original commenter was doing but it sounds like they had some kind of targeting that was almost entirely based on cohorts or maybe they needed to have stability over time which would require a database. We did something similar recently except we just store a "session ID" with a blob for look-up and the evaluation only happens on the first request for a given session ID.

I don't see how that's possible. Creditors are required to report information, entities who have your email address are not. And I think I'd prefer that remain the case.
Is the Canadian Better Business Bureau more legit than the entity in the US named Better Business Bureau? I kinda rolled my eyes when I got to where the article mentioned BBB, but maybe the Canadian one is more legitimate.
And if I'm wrong about the US BBB, let me know, but from what I've read it's closer to pay for praise than a true consumer advocate.

(edit) Apparently they're now effectively the same entity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Better_Business_Bureau
Kind of odd to quote the BBB in the article then -
> when they have easy access to ports or internet in the sea

They're a LOT further out that you think. There are no "ports with internet".

> there are some expensive, high latency satellites

When I drove around Africa, any kind of useful satellite internet was going to cost more than the entire 3 year expedition right around the whole continent cost!

(Starlink changes that, but as I said, they're not interested)

Super sad to see. Nowhere is safe from the realities of nature. And climate change is just kicking everything up several notches faster than most places are prepared for. Are hurricanes new to Hawaii? No. But will they become more frequent? Absolutely.
the iphone, in my opinion, was a bit of an accidental success. I remember having a Nokia at the time...

The itouch came out first, and some people were like "omg, I wish this was my phone!" and some of us said, "I don't want people to interrupt me while listening to my music." Here's the thing though, they cost "around" the same amount (after AT&T subscriber subsidies). So, which one would you get, even if you didn't want people to call you while you are listening to music? If you had AT&T, anyway. If you didn't have AT&T, you couldn't use the phone at all.

The internet was a thing, but not as you know it today, but Facebook was still kinda new (it had just rolled out to everyone IIRC, or was about to, instead of being limited to universities). The "hashtag" was brand new and still kind of 'wtf is this?' and limited to certain circles. Apps were basically toys and games, nothing like what we have today. In fact, when the itouch launched, there were no apps. I got one hot off the shelf and was disappointed with the battery life while listening to music. I think the only "app" it had was a web browser and notes. My peers around me, didn't really think it was interesting.

I didn't get an iPhone until ~2016, when my wife started giving me crap about blue bubbles. Before that, I used Windows Phone simply because it was a phone first, and a computer second. That probably won't make sense to most people, but we're talking about "low power modes" that allowed the phone to last until you got home from the bars at 2am. I was always the one who still had juice to call a cab. Modern phones have all these features, but they really didn't until ~2015ish (android) and 2018ish (apple), while windows phone had it from the very beginning in 2009ish.

It's very hard to not make that mistake. Think of all the websites running in your browser on your laptop. Isolating all those trust domains is going to be quite costly.

This thread is reacting to someone pointing out the weaknesses in VPNs. It's the people who were triggered by that to defend VPN usage against the pointing out of this reality, and to imply everyone aware of the drawbacks are paranoiacs; it's those people who have committed themselves in advance to a solution.

My comment is about how this man is seriously entertaining a 2B$ valuation for this napkin math, with no experience in the 4/5 different industries his plan entails – and sharing no definite plans of what to do with it except "be able to train GPT4 in a day". It is about prevailing market forces in VC that let him believe this plan might actually work.

It doesn't have anything to do with crypto, science, or Real World Problems.
you are misreading "owns a share of the hive, decides how many bees to hire/fire, where they work, when they work, what % of the honey to share with the worker bees"

Team managers/trainers do not meet most of those criteria.
At most the GM meets the majority of them.
Only the team owner would meet all the criteria.

True. It could make these self-calibration tasks more explicit in the UI. It's really asking you to do something for it.
Because Shuttleworth in particular or because someone at a company took someone out to a meal? The latter seems perfectly normal and I've been in that situation a number of times.
