So one, if it's not pharma who's dying, who are you asserting is dying from regulation?

Two, you're ignoring the externalities here. Most regulations exist to account for negative externalities. If I sell big cookies on the street for $5 each and 1 person in 10 dies from eating my cookies, then my $50 in revenue has to be compared against the cost of the death. Food safety regulations have costs to be sure, but we have to measure them against the harm averted.

If a product is more expensive because its makers have to be more careful, then that's not inefficient. It's people having to pay the true costs of the product, which is more efficient overall.

It's also true that regulation can be inefficient, of course. But the solution for that is primarily for producers to be responsible members of society, and secondarily for them to work closely with regulators to find effective regulation at minimal cost.

But if effective regulation that properly places costs kills a company or an industry, I'd argue that industry should not exist in the first place. Something we're seeing rediscovered in real time with people like Sam Bankman-Fried.
F1 is a little different than traditional sports in this regard.

While traditional sports (especially team-ball sports) claim that they stimulate the local economy and drive tourism, it has been shown time and time again that this is at best an exaggeration, at worse a complete lie. Most attendees to ball games are locals; in general they don't book lodging locally and they won't patronize nearby restaurants or businesses. They show up for the game, watch the game, maybe buy something or eat at the facilities directly around the stadium, then go home.

F1 is different in every regard. Fans will travel for F1. International ticket sales often make up more than 35% of the tickets sold, even in venues like Saudi Arabia or Bahrain. Race events take place over a 3 or 4 day weekend, giving the spectators more time to patronize local businesses. Most will rent lodging.

I'm not saying that they're not disruptive (they are, especially when run somewhere like downtown Las Vegas) but the way they are disruptive, the costs, and the practical upsides of an F1 street race are different than, for instance, bringing the Raiders to town.
Usually have pretty good test coverage, I've tended to suggest setting aside one day a month to update all project(s) and dependencies, much like Systems Admins will often do the same (more) for system updates.

Most of the time, the updates don't require code changes, so it's maybe an hour, then tests, smoke tests, test/uat pass and release, like any other more significant frequent release ci/cd cycle. About twice a year, it may be deferred for a couple days, if there's a major library update with breaking changes. In those cases, new story(ies) go into the top of the backlog to handle it as a higher pointed change.

Not every environment will follow the above... which is how you see projects with multi-year old dependencies, sometimes 2+ major releases behind. IMO, it should be considered the same as ceremonies and planning, it's just part of the lifecycle. That it doesn't get treated as such is the issue.
It costs $63 per month and you need to pay quarterly. I guess that’s why it’s buried.
Banking! If there are meaningful competitors then that implies there is meaningful competition. But many financial services firms have been making huge windfall profits by creating a wide interest rate spread even though they would still be (very) profitable with much lower spreads and their customers have a clear incentive to go with a competitor offering a better interest rate. So clearly there is not effective competition in this market.

The best living conditions in Mexico are better than the average in the US. The same applies to most Latin American countries. But the average living conditions in Latin America is still not great, and that is what drives perception.

I've worked on a Haskell + Rust project that followed roughly the dynamic you're describing and was pretty happy with it. I wrote some simple tooling that let us share algebraic types between the two to manage our interfaces and it worked pretty well. In our case we needed to serialize/deserialize data between our components so the interfaces were at a bit of a distance, but, in principle, it would have been totally doable to extend the same kind of tooling to provide a legitimately easy-to-use FFI layer between the two languages.

Haskell is a bit of a tricky language organizationally for mostly social/political reasons, but if I end up starting my own company in the future, Haskell + Rust is definitely the tech stack I'd lean towards.
Svelte doesn't exist in a vacuum, and developers have been burned by major version bumps over and over again (Angular, every PHP upgrade, Python 3, etc). If Svelte is stable, they can signal that by keeping the version numbers stable.

> Python is a pain in the ass in production environments.

I really dislike blanket statements like that one. Because any programming language can be a pain in production environments. One of the disadvantages of Python is also one of it's advantages. Because it's much easier to end up with a terrible production environment when you use "chaos" languages like Python or JavaScript, the tooling to avoid the pain points is so mature. With those in place Python becomes great in production.

Yes it'll require your organization to take some serious CI culture decisions and also enforce them. The thing is, however, while you can get a long way without doing that with some programming languages, you're frankly always going to want them by the time you reach enterprise size. So it's just so much easier if you get it done right away, and you will, if you're serious about using Python.

I'd argue that if it's a pain to work in your production environments then the issue is not the technology but the process.

My impression is that TSMC is a Taiwanese company, why this would not be onshoring, but offshoring.

The more appropriate term is probably foreign direct investment (FDI) in Germany from TSMC.

I find it funny that western people have issue with the idea that Asian companies can indeed also invest in western countries. It is akin to some discussion about Lega here on HN where some people talked about it as "onshoring" when they made a US factory – Lego is a Danish comapny.

Cloudflare allows you to enable mTLS for websites:

https://developers.cloudflare.com/ssl/client-certificates/en...

https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/identity/de...

This would then require Cloudflare to request a client certificate. This is great for securing websites using corporate identity that is derived from AD certs for example to make sure the device being used has a valid cert on it.

Alongside MDM for example forcing the certificate to have a short lifespan (my $CORP uses 7 days) you can validate that the device has the correct security posture to access the resources.

If for example I let my device not update the version of macOS often enough my cert expires and I can't access internal resources until I update my OS and MDM software checks that and provisions me a new device certificate.
Oh absolutely a fair criticism! Personally I've all but stopped using ChatGPT (I used it six times in the last seven days before today, and two of them were for the same question about GitHub Markdown) because it's just too unreliable. But I really resent the preprint being given as evidence for ChatGPT's disutility, because it's simply bad evidence.
> People somehow thought this would mean checking for ad block

This is an obvious consequence of this proposal, yes. Ad-block prevention isn't an explicit goal, just a very obvious consequence when you create a mechanism that whereby attesters (OS) inform the server about the presence or absence of software on your computer. It doesn't require a logical leap, it's a plainly obvious use case.

While they could not export towards Western countries, semiconductor devices formed a significant fraction of their exports to the Soviet Union and to the countries dominated by the Soviet Union, i.e. to the other members of the Comecon.

If the GDR had not used most of its resources for a greater development in the domains of semiconductor devices, precision mechanics and optics than most other members of Comecon, it is likely that they would not have been able to export much except food, which they did not have enough even for themselves, while needing to import a lot of resources that they did not have.

If Asianometry had made a video with the similar title "How Semiconductors Ruined Intel", that title would be closer to the truth, because during most of the last decade the performance of Intel in developing semiconductor manufacturing has been much worse than that of the GDR.

Hopefully the woes of Intel will end this year with the launch of the "Intel 4" process, but before that Intel has succeeded in 6-7 years to transform an advantage of 2-3 years in semiconductor manufacturing against all others into a handicap of 2-3 years compared to the top competitors.

By contrast, GDR has started with a handicap of at least 10 years against USA (the US semiconductor industry has been created in the middle of WW2, for the fabrication of radar diodes) and after some 35 years it still had about the same 10 years of handicap.

While GDR and the other communist countries have never been able to reduce the technological gap between them and USA, they also never had any such tremendous fall behind, like Intel, where it seems that the management methods and the internal cooperation between divisions have not been better than those that were rightly criticized for GDR.

Unfortunately bad management is not an exclusive feature of the "planned" communist economies, but it becomes more and more frequent in the present economies that have become dominated by quasi-monopolies everywhere.
Again, no one is saying that everyone should care about Hurd. This just feels like an entire subthread about a strawman. I think your stance is entirely reasonable, and one I resonate with, but it felt like you expected Hurd enthusiasts to convince you that you should care. Which feels like missing the point, to me, at least.

Is it? The experiment is just that, a way to test your packages for breakage, the proposition to opt in via langfile is similar to Rust edition systems which work fine.

Way back when C# actually went through that change unconditionally (LangVersion was not a thing yet), and there was barely any breakage.
> When printing very deep stacks, the runtime now prints the first 50 (innermost) frames followed by the bottom 50 (outermost) frames, rather than just printing the first 100 frames. This makes it easier to see how deeply recursive stacks started, and is especially valuable for debugging stack overflows.

A prediction based on no information is definitionally unfalsifiable.

I'm well aware of the nature of the argument, having been an SSC reader since long before the whole Cade Metz kerfuffle, and still being an ACX reader now - admittedly these days more to see what Alexander is on about lately; it's been some time since I've taken him seriously. A major reason why that's the case is because I've yet to see from any source a substantiation of that argument which is sustainable in the absence of a lot of handwaving. Granted, nobody waves hands like Scott Alexander! That's a lot of why I still find him so entertaining. But the handwaving is still handwaving.
It's not a law. It's a regulation. There is a difference.
For the "can" part, looking at the numbers, it looks possible.

If I take TSMC, they have:

* $73b revenue

* $32b income

* 73000 employees

(2022 numbers from wikipedia)

That's a really high margin, and a really high revenue per employee. This means there is probably room to accommodate for higher wages.

The concern I have revolves more around the US work culture. Employees tend to switch company frequently. Given how critical institutional knowledge is for running these fabs, this is a handicap.

I also cannot shake the feeling that the lack of regulations regarding working conditions might also be detrimental. Better regulations and compensation rules regarding night shifts or on-call for example could improve things greatly and attract far more workers in this field.
Sorry to hear that. I wasn't trying to downplay the issue, I was just recounting from own experiences just visiting the cities (Leipzig, Dresden) multiple times.

I'm not sure where things stand now, but just prior to the pandemic I remember reading that the labor market was historically inelastic for workers of all stripes. Between non-computes, implicit collusion, and the emergence of gig work people who sold their labor for wages were the least able to change jobs or negotiate for better wages since like the 70s.

Your characterization of SF's social safety net seems (charitably) hyperbolic, I think you need to diversify your news diet.

> I think we have mostly taken care of it via social support mechanisms

As with labor elasticity, these are again at historical lows. Basically since Reagan we have gutted our social safety net and replaced it with tax cuts for the employers who then take their extra capital overseas.

> Drivers like it and the company likes it, so what's the problem?

I don't know who you're talking to, but drivers definitely don't "like it". They need it, yes, but the ones I've spoken to seem to have major problems with Uber who has stonewalled them for years.

Overall it sounds like we are starting from very different assumptions about the state of play in the labor market right now, not sure if we're going to bridge this in a comment thread debate. Have a good one!
Well unless the companies decide to just not compete on price and keep it high, see the fuel prices in EU.

LangChain supports local LLMs like Llama 2 with Ollama (https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama) as of this morning, in both their Python and Javascript versions:

https://python.langchain.com/docs/integrations/llms/ollama

This can be a great option if you'd like to keep your data local versus submitting it to a cloud LLM, with the added benefit of saving costs if you're submitting many questions in a row (e.g. in batches)
Two reasons I can think of:

1) speed to update it in the case of a bug / security issue.

2) backwards compatibility.

Getting a new Go release out is likely a lot more time consuming than bumping up the crypto library outside of there. And those libraries do not require full backwards compatibility compared to the Go standard library. So they can do breaking changes if need back without breaking the Go contract.
I took a very charitable take of your comment, that at best can be interpreted as “this policy was completely useless” when the evidence is staring you in the face. TSMC was clearly motivated by CHIPS to build fabs in the US for dozens of billions and pocketed a fraction of that as a handout. The fact that I’m writing this obvious information down is charitable.
they can keep the sea out but they cannot keep the river out. Climate change will lead to flooding and ice melt on the upstream Rijn and most of that water ends up in the netherlands.
Thus providing an example of why we should stick with our pencil and paper, manually counted voting system, and not computerise it.

Most of the info lost is already publicly available (if one is willing to visit libraries in each electoral ward), so could be collated. Despite that, the manual process of the polls means that it is very difficult to corrupt, and even more so to corrupt without being detected.

In a completely electronic system, it would be so much easier to cheat, and get away with it. It would also be difficult to convince folks that the systems are robust.

In that sense Estonia is 'brave'.
As an interesting aside, the word nazi means something slightly different to a Russian audience vs an American one. Or at least so I have read. I live in the US, and Nazi makes me think of an anti-Semitic 1940s German. But in Russia it seems to mean threat to Russians/oppressor.
