That cleared things up, at least for me. I totally agree that if your job is to essentially write a custom, RESTful, fault tolerant, 99.999% uptime accessor for a table or two, basically you're hired to be the ORM, so you don't want to just suggest people to use a ORM framework and effectively make yourself redundant.
mine's called cdd, and it's a little more complex:

cdd () {
case "$1" in

/*) mkdir -p "$1" && cd "$1";;

../*) (cd .. && mkdir -p "${1#.}") && cd "$1";;

Yes, and if we all go burn our houses down the GDP increases became we create more economic activity. The point being the statistics don't necessarily mean what you'd think they mean, and they do redefine/game them when they want.
Does this include line employees who worked at Google or Facebook or Microsoft if the company is found liable for doing something sketchy?

The sums sure are substantial. You can argue they know their employer was no angel, too. OK to claw back paychecks, or do we draw the line somewhere closer to actually participating in a criminal act?
Yeah, and while it's true it can't really solve something you have to think about specific to your problem domain, I find it really good for common implementations. If I'm making a music app and I'm implementing shuffle, I just type

function fisherYates(arr: IPlaylistItem[]) { tab
and it's done.

Similarly, I just type

class SortedSet:
// api has to have add, rank, cardinality, itemsinrange(make this a fluent api with min max fns returning self each time, and a get to resolve it, and items() to start it)
// use redis

And it does the zrank, zcard zadd etc figuring out how to call the py-redis API.

Similarly I cba when learning an ORM to find out how specifically it does something by scouring it's docs, I just type SQL or natural language there or the beginnings of it atleast, and let copilot fill out the orm api for me. After which I can just hover over the functions it chained/nested together and the docs pop up and I verify that it did it right, and read any caveats they mention. I pretty much learnt how to use prisma just by seeing what copilot produced.
CPS teachers are not in fact paid more than every other school system; NYC and LA pay more on average, and if you adjust for cost of living, Cleveland is a better deal. Meanwhile: the big sticking points with the CPS unions --- of which I am not a fan --- are class size and support staff, which are not pocket-lining issues for the teachers.

You can't judge from Bacardi. It's bottom-shelf, young, and pretty rough. I find it unpleasant to drink neat even at 80 proof. A high-quality, aged rum at 130 proof will be plenty fiery, but not as bad as Bacardi 151 diluted to 130 proof.

Really? I don't know turntables, but I feel like every DJ wants a Technics one. The first several I looked at on their website play 33 1/3s, 45s, and 78s.

I've seen a codebase where half the features were implemented by inheriting the controller class and adding some behaviour and then that wqs wrapped in another layer adding more behavior.

Since you are "judging a book by its cover", or this case a name. This might interest you, that karpathy was co-founding developer of OpenAI, left to work at Tesla to head their AI development for 5-ish years and now back at OpenAI.

Also Important to note that LLM development is moving at a very fast pace recently so a book form might not be ideal.

There was a period (roughly the second term of Obama) where tech/media/politics was very intertwined. People moved from media to the Obama admin, which had a close relationship with big tech, and then onto leadership positions in big tech.

Vox was the pinnacle of this, a very technocratic liberal publication which raised a lot of money telling investors it was a tech company (hence the focus on the CMS).

This broke down after the 2016 election as the media blamed the tech industry for the election result (leading the NYT to set a editorial policy that tech must be covered in a negative light), and also had to focus on ideology over technocracy (which is why the wonkier people at Vox got slowly pushed out). The gap between politics and tech also grew as there was no path from the Trump admin to tech leadership (or vice versa).

Meanwhile youtube & twitter grew, making big media less and less relevant.

So this is an interesting if expected outcome as Vox has slowly dwindled in value.
Part of the trick of making the most of LLMs is figuring out what kind of things to apply them to.

Exactly. Such a metric dismisses the traveller's view. It's a "pat yourself on the back" kind of metric. Reminds me of ... the often misused idea that more traffic lanes don't solve problem because they will soon enough actually be used by people who find a benefit in using them (the horror).

One would hope for metrics that take into account the benefits to the travellers. A cab or similar is used because it brings a benefit to the user. NOT typically for the pleasure of spending more money.

$1000-$3000 isn't decent for my use case; basically i want to use oxygen instead of ibuprofen for minor aches, coupled with heat or cooling. I find that pure oxygen does wonders for minor headaches and neck pain that i experience. $15-$25 a liter for oxygen is also not a decent price, relatively.

They have a simple trick - they make the vendor eat any returns.

So vendors won't ship them shit, because they know they'll eat the returns.

I have not read a single response of that form that I find interesting in the slightest, or adds new information, or makes an insightful point, and I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment!
I wonder whether, had they chosen to contact the aircraft outside their sector, the Skyguide controller would have heard them.

100% agree with this. I used ChatGPT earlier today to give me networkx code for computing the connected components of a graph and visualizing the graph. This isn't hard to do, but I don't use networkx all that often and I forget the exact API.

There are many things to love in the potential of self-driving cabs. Fleets can also be parked in distributed smaller spaces (impractical for cabs or buses - typically). Fleet cars can be idled in place (head to a street with typically available space and just stop there.) And this is even if we never get to privately owned or leased vehicles being used as part of a fleet operation when not wanted by their private owner.

3) "Soft expiry / leniency periods", wherein X amount of time is given after the event trigger in the "rare" cases where customers are late to respond to events. Do be warned though that customers will eventually treat this leniency period as if the expiry didn't happen, and some will inevitably complain when they can't do Y because they delayed well past the leniency period.

> it's not logical to assume one person can represent everyone's interests.

Actually that is the fundamental proposal of representative Democracy, so I have to lol at this proposition that your Senator or MP or MEP can't represent your interests. (No, not everyone's, but must represent constituents fairly throughout the district.)

See, you're speaking from a modern perspective of individualism, and that's exactly why "one family, one vote" won't work anymore. I have no particular interest in going back to that situation, because the whole world has changed around it, and it doesn't make any sense anymore. But I am just telling y'all why it made sense before, because of the remaining collectivism that united families under the same/similar/allied ideals and values.

Of course, as individualism deconstructs the family and splits us into one-man (one-woman) (Gnome Ann) islands, with our own ideals and values and votes, then the issues change. In the past, the issues may have been focused on legislation that affects the family as a unit, something that affects landowners in a certain favorable way, something that, say, encouraged procreation and childbearing. Or it encouraged farmers to grow a certain crop, or something. Or labor reforms improved the situation for a working man who was feeding a substantial family.

But nowadays, issues focus on indivuality, and what we can get for ourselves. The less relevant a family unit is to government, the more relevant is the individual, and the more likely that individuals fight for individual freedoms and individual rights, because the individual vote gives them that sovereign rule over their own household of one. So there's no going back, no. Feline suffrage is on the table.

zabzonk, thank you for raising this point and the discussion it teases out.

std::move is nothing but a cast - but it means that means that for every new class, we should be actively considering if a move constructor is appropriate for that class. The consequences of a missing move constructor would be calling the copy constructor... pretty dry stuff I agree. about as exciting as discussing pass by value or pass by reference... but for certain domains of programming (embedded), just as critical. Nicolai M. Josuttis , a 20 year veteran of the standards committee, can be quoted as saying "Move semantics, introduced with C++11, has become a hallmark of modern C++ programming." [1]

But if we take a step back and consider the broader picture I think of "the average language proficiency of the team" as being a very real pressure. If the complexity of the code base creeps above the average proficiency of the team, the health of the code base struggles.

So, here's the thing. As a hiring manager for embedded products, If I can't get applicants that know about std::move(), then the scope of the c++ language has outpaced it's own talent pool, and something like cppfront becomes all the more critical.

I also loved red alert 2, and played it much more than starcraft. However, one possible reason is that starcraft had 3 factions. 3 very different factions.

Yes, Allies and USSR had special units in RA2, but the differences were much more pronounced in SC. It made for very different possible gameplays and strategies.

Also, maybe building on top of the warcraft brand helped. WC2 was pretty amazing back then.

OK, we need a lot of grazers. That still doesn't really help with the fact that 30 million bovines are killed and "restocked" on a yearly basis. If the argument is "we can keep eating meat at the current rate because we need a lot of grazers", I don't think it's a very good one. Whatever carbon sequestering benefits we were supposed to get are almost immediately invalidated. It's the same issue with trees - you don't realize the carbon sequestering benefits of planting trees until they've been alive along enough to offset the input carbon.
