From the other side, I'm American who spent time in Europe and I felt similar.I don't want to use the term “uptight” but I can't think of a better word.

No, I’m not trying to be disrespectful and I’m doing my best to be respectful. But it was culture shock and I wasn't used to the array of “we don’t do that here” and “you can’t dress like that there” etc. I was kind of on eggshells in many interactions over things that noone would give a second thought to in the US.

(For context, I visited The Netherlands, Belgium, and France)
There’s no need to wonder. This isn’t a mystery. City planning in the US is totally screwed. No density, single family homes over dense multistory apartments, highways over rail lines, cars over public transit, parking over parks.

Everyone was sold the dream of their own little tenth acre in the exurbs. The end result was a life spent in the car.

Put the burn-out aside. It’s not time for such emotions. You are feeding data into GPT-4 and you are making it better but you are also losing everything else in the process: Your business. OpenAI now has access to how your business works, what you need, etc… It’s only a matter of time before OpenAI competes against you and they’ll win.

The only solution is to rely on open source models. The way to develop this market is to use it and pour money into it. I think everyone person, company, corporation or even government should chip in to this effort. If you pay $10 to OpenAI, you should pay $50 to a bunch of open source alternatives of your choosing.

This is the only way to make the world much less worse than what it is about to become.
Ok, the video doesn’t seem to cover whether children can give consent, and you said they can’t, so what’s missing?
I’ve been using this package and like it a lot.

One problem I’d like to find a solution for is how to get past cookie pop ups when scraping a website.
I’ve not found a satisfactory packaged solution for this. Clearly a tough problem in general but wondered if people have found good libs to help with this. I’ve heard of solutions involving playwright etc.
It's obviously not quite such a nonsense statement, 99.999% of human history is in that range, too.
I don't know what you're trying to get at. For the original comment to make sense you'll have to show that:

- the "Disney Trio of Destruction" relies on behavior that isn't accurately emulated which can be emulated accurately without a big performance penalty

- the "Disney Trio of Destruction" is slow due to an inaccuracy which affects other games as well

- the "Disney Trio of Destruction" correct behavior doesn't negatively affect other game performance

Until you've shown this, you're essentially arguing for arguings sake - because I never said anything about "making my own emulator", I'm talking about the way Dolphin works.

But let's keep this spinning, and you build your own cycle-accurate version of Dolphin. Let's see how well that performs.
(From “Agile In Their Own Words”)

“This agile witch hunt has to end, but it never will unless we start politely asking for the things we want.

i know for a fact that 90% of engineers dislike agile but many don't even imagine there can be an alternative, and most who do are terrified to say anything. Just look at the other answers to this question, most are from the very non engineers that have imposed this nonsense in the first place.”--Anonymous,
I think they're doing a pretty good job at that already, given their PR.

I have never worked for Amazon and I am sure there are excellent teams within Amazon where one can find good work opportunities and healthy environment but I'd be really hesitant about taking an offer from them if it were to be presented to me.
No: open source works because the economy of manufacturing software is so wierd. you can breakdown total costs into development, manufacturing, distribution. Software manufacturing and distribution cost are about as close to zero as you can get. So all it takes is one altruistic soul willing to shoulder the research cost. and there is no reoccurring manufacturing or distribution cost to burden this person. physical trading cards would have a recurring manufacturing and distribution costs. This is, strictly speaking, orthogonal to opensource, an open source trading card by definition would come with the design file used to make the card. I guess you could print your own cards.

No: the trading card appeal is scarcity of resource. there is no thrill of acquisition when you can get anything at will.

Yes: go to wikipedia and look up information of your favorite sports figures. feel free to put it in a nice template. there is your open source trading card.

If someone is trying to get a job, would React be a good option? I'm planning to shift to some role where I program, right now I'm in security, and web browser and JavaScript stuff seems the most interesting to me, I have just started recently on this journey.

I am creating a project using React + Vite which could have very well been created in vanilla JS, but just to get familiar with React and also to show some proof to prospective employers. So just wanted some advice on whether React is the way to go, or is Vue/Svelte where the industry is heading towards? Also any other tips on what you would be looking for when hiring a dev would be very helpful. Thanks.
Where is "here"?

Russia and the Middle East can try to sell their oil reserves, but eventually demand is going to crash as a consequence of vehicle and power grid replacement with renewables.

Oil will remain in certain energy dense and/or conservative applications for awhile (e.g. aircraft), but the two above sectors are a big chunk of demand (~50%, roughly).

Compared to renewables' zero cost of fuel, it's hard to balance refining and shipping oil around the world at any price, especially after the current system downsizes.

At this point the price for new solar power or onshore wind is cheaper than gas or coal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_sourc...
Red Hat Mexican standoff: Job cuts? Yes, but we still need someone to boot Linux

You can't really compete on licensed league IP, since you'd need to acquire the license, and leagues want money.

"open source" doesn't really make sense for trading cards either, since the entire point is collectibility. It's not even clear what "open source" would entail at all.

Hell, even for a trading card game what "open source" means isn't really clear: you can already create your own format if you want, you're never going to be able to play bespoke cards at sanctioned events (way too easy to abuse), would it just give you the right to "fork" the TCG and reuse as many of the existing cards & rules as you want ignoring the rest?

That hardly seems useful as you can more or less already do that, everybody understands that an MTG ETB and a Hearthstone Battlecry are the same thing, you just can't use the exact same names (let alone reuse art because that is under separate licensing).
Indeed, it's selection bias. You're only seeing/hearing those who talk about it, and those who talk the most about it are (probably) from opposing ends of the "positive/negative appreciation of it" scale.

I had a summer internship in the suburbs of boston and drove out from the city every day in the early 2010s. Practically door to door traffic, stressful unprotected left turns, masshole drivers abound, the works.

After that summer I swore off car commuting. I ended up with the same commute after graduating but by public transit. Since transit to the suburbs is awful, it was a 3 seat ride - train to the commuter rail station, commuter rail to the suburbs, then bus to the workplace, about 1-1.5 hr each way.

After quitting that job for a job in the city (with about 20-30 min commute by train each day) i swore off the suburbs altogether. Life is too short for that nonsense.
Unfortunately presented as a long form article and not a presentation.
Great article, thanks for sharing.

Fanatics sports merchandise (t-shirts, etc) is probably the worst quality merchandise I’ve purchased in my life. It’s a good thing they have such a monopoly, because after a few purchases, people would seek out alternatives. I, despite being a pretty avid sports fan, have just stopped buying sports merchandise because it’s almost always Fanatics.
I say this all the time. As someone who wrote many many parsers before, flex/bison is not worth it. Parsing is a solved problem and -- depending on your style -- nothing other than recursive descent or parsing combinators is worth it, imho. Always hand write your parsers.

Also, ideally you should never write parsers at all!

I’ll wait for the “Svelte kind of sucks, and plain old React is fine” article next year before making any decisions (well really I’m waiting for the ‘jquery can do what React and Svelte do believe it or not’ article still).

Look up the "MACHO" hypothesis for dark matter. Tl;dr: mostly ruled out via gravitational lensing surveys.
This.

I’ve been think about this a lot. Like how htmlx is reinventing something called pjax (though better). There’s many other examples. It’s a lot of newer programmers never investigating the “lore”. I don’t think it’s part of CS curriculum, and boot camps certainly don’t teach it. Forget how things they are using works. It’s woefully common for js devs to not understand how variable referencing works. (Which is super important for reactivity)
> I don’t think OG’s paper is up to snuff on its lit review - do you?

Not in the slightest. Caching the logit masks and applying the right one based on where you are in your grammar is obvious. This is what I'd expect some bright undergrads to come up with for a class project. This manuscript could've been a blog post.

Although arXiv is displacing some traditional publishing, I think it's a little silly to try to hold it to the same standards.

I saw your argument for why you think it's relevant and I think you're overstating the case. There are a _heap_ of papers they could've cited.

As an aside, when can we stop citing _Attention is All You Need_?

I wonder if the author has it backwards. Americans are being kicked around by their corporations, and now they are being just as big assholes back. I know that I've learned to treat customer service people differently--not impolitely, but I am fine repeating the same request to them over and over again until they give in.

Unfortunately, this treatment bleeds over to people and businesses that don't deserve it. There's nothing wrong with screaming at a medical collections biller to leave you the fuck alone, but if you're doing that in a family-owned restaurant, then you are the asshole.
Yeah, this has always irked me. For example: Imagine a CEO at an earnings call saying something like, "Finance? Oh, I don't worry about finance. I leave that to the finance-y guys." It would (rightly so) be totally unacceptable, and you'd probably see that CEO fired post haste.

However, when some mid-level manager says, "Tech? Oh, I leave that to the tech-y guys", it is somehow acceptable. And even celebrated by certain types of mid-level functionaries.

Of course, this is a contrived example to make the point; I appreciate that. There are always questions about the depth of detail or commercial priorities. But even with that in mind, I always end up asking myself: How come it's ok for managers to be so dismissive of engineering?

What is even more bonkers is when you see this kind of thing in businesses that are fundamentally about digital technology, like banking. The number of times in my career that I have listened to a crusty old banker moan about "not being a technologist" when the very essence of modern banking is digital technologies doesn't bear thinking about.

One thing I would bet pretty heavily on is that of the best Engineers I have worked with over the years, there is virtually nothing on the other side of the table (finance, marketing, HR, etc) that they cannot _understand_ and engage meaningfully with (with the possible exception of sales, which is a discipline that is not straightforward to be good at). In contrast, I have rarely met anyone in a non-tech (business) field who could swap into and be even remotely competent as a software engineer.

For balance, I'm not suggesting that engineers are without blame any more than I am suggesting that managers and non-engineers are solely to blame. It's just to pick up on the point that it seems ok for this disdain to go in one direction but not the other.

Lots of assumptions. And they're all based on the fact React must be some all-encompassing framework, like all other frameworks are or have become, and there's no other way to organize your app, possibly, unless it's dropped from above, from the framework, and is intricately interwoven and coupled with it.

But there's another option: don't use React as a framework, use it as a library. And do your modules/components/reuse/fetching in your own plain code, while using React as a display layer. You don't even have to use React for the entire UI.
That's "romance" :-)

I'd say it's a good thing to know the approaches of different frameworks, but solid foundations are the most important factor in successful development. Try to decouple your application logic from your view layer to clearly delineate between the React/UI parts and the rest. This would also make it easy to later build a Vanilla version of the frontend without rebuilding the whole code.
Still a bit puzzled by it.

It's no surprise that the algorithm is incomplete, if some of its subtasks are still open problems in math. (And therefore it has to resort to imperfect heuristics or try and detect classes of inputs for which no results can be generated)

However, the OP and links sound as if even just implementing the existing algorithm spec is so insanely hard that no one has managed to do so yet for the entirety of it.

It'd be interested to know what exactly makes it so hard.

Wikipedia doesn't link to the actual spec unfortunately, though they do mention that the spec is something like 100 pages in size. Maybe that's a hint of the amount of complexity that is involved...
> Vue uses a templating language closer to default HTML than to JSX, which makes it much easier to write conditionals and loops in template files, without having to reach for workarounds like map and ternaries

I like react/jsx precisely because I can use language constructs like filter, map, reduce, etc, instead of a custom implementation of basic things like if statements and loops. I find this much more ergonomic and didn’t realise some people see this as a “workaround”.

Worth also pointing out that when you write these templates, as strings or template literals, they might resemble HTML in appearance but really have no relation to actual HTML except what they output after processing. All of the added directives also have no equivalence in HTML. You’re just writing JS indirectly.
Working in tech is atrocious. Imagine being expected to spend most of your life tied to a desk, carrying out useless meetings, chasing tickets, and long commutes, for pay that you will never actually enjoy as by the time you retire you will be dementia ridden. Worse, working in tech limits your understanding of things around you, essentially making you captive in a job with no life. Imagine as life flashes before your eyes most of the view will be a jira board, and office and petty office politics. Get out while you can.
Yes, I've seen this firsthand. Side effects can put you in a huge mess, i.e. an effect that triggers another effect, that triggers another effect... and it can be hard to follow that logic if you're unfamiliar with the codebase. I do think it causes confusion compared to the 'setState' class-based components because I can follow all of the setState calls very easily.
Wow you convinced me, there is no difference between any group of people and we should just take in the entire population of Central America. There will be no negative effects whatsoever. In fact you could swap the population of Beijing with that of Guatemala and you would see no difference whatsoever. You are so smart dctoedt.

You don't need special relativity for that, all you need is a finite speed of light - a fact which was known before special relativity was developed.
If I put up a copyrighted work and link from that work to my own company to buy a copy, that is not going to look very good in court. It also undermines my claimed altruistic reasons. Linking to the publisher site or even Amazon to purchase would have been better to show increasing marketshare.

Ignore the covid emergency library. The entire CDL was never setup to do what was claimed. Libraries uploaded their holdings list, the books were made available digitally, and nothing was done to verify the books came off the shelf when a digital copy was checked out. The emergency library simply pushed publishers to stop looking the other way.

What IA did here actually hurt possibility of CDL or an interesting court case challenging various pieces of copyright.
The article starts by a quote of Alex Russel, paid by Google to specify Web Components between 2008 and 2021 - a technology in direct competition with React at the time. He is not a technologist to track or quote to get unbiased framework opinions.

I don't agree with most of the argument here, to the point where I think we live in totally foreign echo chambers that rarely exchange ideas. I didn't get any new idea out of this article, it didn't inspire me to do something I already tried 10 times in the past.

The website loads fast, and that's great. 10% of the CSS is unused. and that's a small blog. In the non-themed CSS, it's close to 50% unused. You could consider it a non problem - at scale dead CSS is complicated to manage, at least for me.

If they wanted it to apply to fixed income retirees they could have applied it to just fixed income retirees. This law applies to all land and property owners and the more you own the better you benefit. They may have used retirees to sell this scheme but it's not what was sold.

BTW many other states have Homestead Exemption that only applies to homeowners, retirees, widows, or veterans. Unlike Prop 13 they were designed to specifically help those groups while making sure the state was still able to collect tax revenue from those not in that group.
