France is not a planned economy in the Soviet Union style, and we are in a privatisation trend. But the state still has a huge role in the economy and a history of interventionism in the private sector. More than most European countries.

Dumb question, but is there anyway you can contact uninstalling customers to find out why? Could the plugin pop up a comments form asking why people are uninstalling that gets to you and your colleague?

I think customer feedback would be a good starting point.

I'm writing "The Impostor's Guide To The Shell". My theory is that reading popular open-source codebases, and Googling stuff you don't understand until you grok it, is a great way to overcome impostor's syndrome. The goal is to take a reader from thinking "Maybe a 10x engineer could understand that library, but I never could..." to "Oh, that's all it does?".

The guide covers things like:

- shebangs

- exit codes

- parameter expansion

- file permissions

- how to look up docs via "man" and "help"

- And a lot more.

The codebase I'm starting with is a Ruby version manager (written in bash) called RBENV. I've published it onto a platform called HelpThisBook.com, a platform to help authors get feedback from early readers (co-created by Rob Fitzpatrick, author of "The Mom Test", "Write Useful Books", etc.). Instructions on how to leave feedback should be given when you open the link below.

Take home and “please time box it to maybe an hour maximum, you’re probably doing a load of interviews and tech tests at the moment, so you don’t need to finish: I just want to see your approach”.

In-person time I used to like to ask a question I got from here: “Tell me about your favourite coding work or side project”. We’d then dig into choices, trade offs, obstacles and how they got around them.

My favourite answer to this was “an OpenGL implementation for the X Window protocol which I wrote in Common Lisp”. Just getting through the first layer of “Why [x]?”, took 15 minutes and we spent an hour talking about all the facets. Hired him, was a superb colleague.
Even more so when you look past the platform to what they can actually accomplish with the traffic light coalition they’ve put together. They got a temporary child tax credit through the Trump administration, but couldn’t even make it permanent when they got a trifecta.

Social issues are really the only thing where the party is unified and can push through changes, especially through the administrative state. We didn’t get a permanent child tax credit, or paid family leave, but we did get abortions and DEI in the military.
> You realize this is only feasible if you have one team working on a compiler for one domain right?

It sounds like you think I’m advocating for something. I’m not. These are all just engineering trade offs that depend on your goals.

Regarding phase ordering: A single IR allows you to freely reorder passes rather than having to reimplement them if you want to move them earlier or later in the phase order.

The user whimsicalism is probably more interested in discussing this, I'd take it up with them.

The biggest issue with that is autocompletion in IDEs. I agree that it's nicer "ideologically", but being able to just go "I got this thing, what can I do with it?" with a simple dot is really nice. Maybe LSPs will at some point be easy to query for that.
I've been working on TurboScribe (https://turboscribe.ai/) for a few weeks and preparing to "officially" launch soon.

I think high-quality AI transcription should be a lot cheaper.

It's pretty simple: Unlimited transcription (powered by Whisper) for $10/month. Upload your audio/video files, get your transcripts (and export to many common formats).

There's a free tier of 4 transcripts (i.e. up to 2 hours) per day if you'd like to check it out.

TurboScribe is especially designed for individuals who need to transcribe larger volumes of audio/video (i.e. dozens or hundreds of hours, including at the highest Whisper large_v2 quality level) or just don't want to have to worry about getting billed by the hour, hitting some ridiculously low cap, etc.
If they wanted to be remembered they would encode a message in the DNA.

Or left it on the moon, I guess.

The catch is it’s not really progress if it’s not sustainable. It’s like living on debt, it ends up in bankruptcy. Are we really correctly investing the ecological debt for a sustainable better future, or are we just burning through it for short term "progress" and leaving a ruined earth after?

> But it's what we do. Always have. Always will.

You can’t extrapolate from the past because never before in history we had the capacity to have impacts at that scale (e.g. atomic bomb). We are in uncharted territories.

I'm working on a Chrome extension that adds realtime presence (cursors, chat, gifs, sticky notes) to any website or page.

Each website/page (depending on your preferences) becomes an ephemeral channel where you can see and interact with others users browsing the internet. It's still in a WIP shape but very functional.

Website: https://webcursors.click/
Extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/web-cursors/chcedo...
I've been working on implementations of classic algorithms in distributed computing, and used Turmoil for testing correctness in message-passing / HTTP systems [0].

Overall, my experience has been positive. When it works, it's great. A pattern I've been following is to have a single fixture that returns a simulation of the system under a standard configuration, for example N replicas of an atomic register, so that each test looks like:
1. Modify the simulation with something like`turmoil::hold("client", "replica-1")`.
2. Submit a request to the server.
3. Make an assertion about either the response, or the state of the simulation once the request has been made. For example, if only some replicas are faulty, the request should succeed, but if too many replicas are faulty, the request / simulation should time-out.

One of the things I have found difficut is that when a test fails, it can be hard to tell if my code is wrong, or if I am using Turmoil incorrectly. I've had to do some deep-dives into the source in order to fully understand what happens, as the behavior sometimes doesn't line-up with my understanding of the documentation.

kind of insane that a dollar here and there is significant on a $20k car (to premium vehicles like trucks/sports cars being $70-100k). but I guess $20k isn't the number that matters, it's $1 vs the profit margin of the vehicle which is of course much smaller.
I favor nuclear. It is clean, reliable, and surprisingly safe, especially with all the regulations on the sector.

But it was never, and will never be "cheap".

Also not all places might be suitable for nuclear, for various reasons. Hydrogen might be a good option.
I am involved in ebook production, so I can somewhat sympathize, in that ebook reading systems tend to be way behind browsers in what code they support.

On the other hand, complex html in emails is mainly for the benefit of the businesses sending you the email, for their commercial purposes, i.e., mostly spam. It rarely has anything to do with communicating useful content to the receiver. If the email is too complex for the client, maybe it shouldn't be in the email.

What do you think I meant with "Musk has all but confirmed"?

I'm not diagnosing him. I'm just pointing out that it makes sens to agree with Musk's self-diagnosis.

Untreated mental illness or autism is not excuse, but it's at least partial explanation. Only people who believe in pseudoscience like soul can think people have something innate like "true self" in them that does not need explanation.

This is by design. The ones where you have to identify a bus, crosswalk etc are all used to train ML models. Your results are checked against other for the captcha, but sometimes you are the first person to see the image and there’s no way to check your answer so you’ll always get served another.

Another smart thing is that they actually segment the picture by moving the squares slightly.

I feel this misunderstands the posters way of working in the same way that a lot of people misunderstand how ads operate: Just because you don't suddenly get an irresistible urge to drink a gallon of Coca Cola after seeing an ad for it does not mean it wasn't effective-- you are not looking to cause monumental shifts in your targets worldview or values, instead you slowly nudge all their future decisionmaking in a favorable direction... slightly.
Also imagine how many hit the oceans. A water hit can be even more catastrophic than a land hit, especially on shallow water like the continental shelf.
cost at scale is somewhat in questions

In other words, it is not economically viable for anything beyond niche applications.

Hydrogen is not a fuel. It readily reacts and forms strong chemical bonds with *everything*. It can be manufactured but not without the overall process being energy negative --- a net consumer of energy. Not many applications can realistically absorb this cost.
The whole idea is super creepy, literally vampiric. What would be far better if the tech worked would be to archive your own blood when you're at an age that you like and use that 10-20 years down the road.

yeah, I do agree that it was very reprehensible of trump to tell people to go home and be peaceful. I mean, how incompetent can he be? he spends all the effort scheming and plotting to illegitimately take over the government, capture the capital, and overthrow the good men and women working there, only to then go and screw it up at the end by telling people to PEACEFULLY make their voices heard, and then double down on this monumental screwup, by telling them to go home???? my god how stupid can trump be.
>If newer advances can’t make it cost competitive with renewables plus some storage (I’ll get to that in a minute) then why would you ever deploy it.

Because it can work rain or shine. Wind or no wind.

What happens if we have no wind and have a lot of clouds for a few weeks in an area? The storage is limited and nuclear can still produce. Yes, I understand other areas can likely pick up the slack, but nuclear doesn't have that issue. At a minimum nuclear is a good thing to have as a back up even if we have sufficient renewables.

Also, don't forget climate change is supposed to cause more extreme weather events. We don't know what impact that will have on wind and solar.
depending on your definition of cheap, sounds a lot like the Portaspresso Rossa Air (https://portaspresso.com/shop/ols/products/rossa-tr-air-espr...).

The problem with most so-called personality archetypes is they aren't based on any rigorous empirical research. They're just arbitrary categories someone came up with.

The Big Five personality traits (openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism) actually have empirical data supporting them. Unless someone has done similar research on engineering personality types, we're basically talking astrology and horoscopes.

Lots of people object to the idea of people paying for blood to stay healthier longer -- but they ignore the fact that it happens today with blood plasma, which is collected from donors who are paid.

There is even a market for blood itself, with the strange stipulation that in the US the donor isn't compensated. (But everyone else along the supply chain is paid handsomely).

"Creepy as fuck: doesn't even begin to cover it:

A startup company, Ambrosia, has been selling "young blood transfusions" for $8,000 since 2016 under the guise of running a clinical trial, to see if such transfusions lead to changes in the blood of recipients.[1][14] As of August 2017, they had 600 people join.[15] The clinical trial has no control arm and so is neither randomized nor blind. As described, whole blood collected by blood banks that had passed its 42-day storage limit was centrifuged to remove cells, the resulting cell-free plasma pooled from several donations and intravenously transfused into recipients.[15] The company was started by Jesse Karmazin, a medical school graduate without a license to practice medicine.[16] David Wright is the licensed doctor overseeing the clinical trial; in his practice he administers intravenous treatments of vitamins and antibiotics for nontraditional purposes and was disciplined by the California Medical Board for the latter in 2015. Jonathan Kimmelman, a bioethicist from McGill University, suggests that Ambrosia is running this as a trial as they would be unable to get FDA approval to sell this treatment otherwise.

Generally people have a work ethic and want to do good work that gets recognized as such. So it's somewhere _between_ "just to get paid" and "align with company goals".

It absolutely sucks if you want to do good work and that doesn't align with company goals or doesn't get you paid (since most people need money). Those three things are not always reconcilable and I have seen how people can break if this creates an area of tension.

ROCm has kinda worked for some APUs in 5.x for a while now. As much as things are expected to work on AMD hardware anyway.

So basically install ROCm 5.5 and check if rocminfo lists your APU as device. Assign more VRAM if possible in your Bios.

There are really no fundamental secret tricks involved. I run pytorch on a 5600G. It's not great and breaks all the time, but that's not really APU specific.
That tendency will delay the transition. But the big economic benefit arises from being able to carry 40% more cargo because the fuel is lighter. Passenger aircraft capacity is maxed out when the seats are full, now that carrying freight in the same aircraft is not allowed. Also, it will take a long time for safety worries to be satisfied.
