My bike came with a Yoshimura and it is deafening to me even on a 372cc. I had to buy a baffle for it and wear earplugs. My watch warns me it’s still 90 to 100 dB.

I guess it kinda sounds cool for about a minute before being unhealthy. It was a surprise to me that anyone want such a thing when I first started out.

is there something like copilot for CLI? Remembering endless switches is tiresome.
I found that listening is a lot easier than talking. Just plain listening and paying full attention to the person - that is, making eye contact, acknowledging when they say something, asking stuff based on what they are saying etc.

I find that easier to do than actually talking

I don’t know, are you talking about the Cabinet? And no, it has to do with imprecision and lack of seriousness. For example I never would’ve guessed that “the Party” was meant to refer to “the Cabinet.”

So your claim is that in the US, where there are strong protections for content of speech, the Secretary of Defense, Transportation Sec, Secretary of Interior, etc, will bankrupt protestors?

Seems like a laughable claim but I’m interested to see your evidence for it.

It's just not a market Apple can infiltrate. If Apple wants to compete on the high-end, they have to dethrone Nvidia and their current high-performance ARM servers (H100 clusters and whatnot). That is a suicide mission for Apple or any company really, regardless of the money they have on-hand.

So... who would they be selling to, now? I genuinely think such a "server Mac" would echo the Xserve without a fundamental shift in the way Apple treats the software community.
Where’s the limit though? What decides wha they can put in there and what they can’t?
China kinda owns the Western teen ideology via TikTok. They can make them feel defeated at any time.
I like it and thank you for creating this. Do not listen to the haters too too much. Just the valid feedback.
Exactly. It all sounds comparatively samey, like "well hey, people over here feel defeated too, lol" and thus you get whataboutism propagating really easily.

Anyway...I'm probably overreacting...I should probably go focus on figuring out a few sneaky emoji I can use, so that I can write Joe Biden's name in my social media posts without getting blocked or officially identified as a critic...

“In 2015, it was reported that there are more than 3 million people are homeless in China.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homelessness_in_China

Though it’s hard to get accurate figures. “In 2011, there were approximately 2.41 million homeless adults and 179,000 homeless children living in the country.[1] However, one publication estimated that there were one million homeless children in China in 2012.[2][unreliable source]”

China doesn’t want embarrassing figures known and actively hides such things, so it’s very hard to compare them with other countries. However, they have zero problems cracking down on homelessness populations and forcefully relocating them.
No, it still isn't true. Consider things like a web browser. Huge codebases where damn near the entire thing is "hot." Or OS's like iOS and Android - again, huge codebases where everything is "hot" (everything is either impacting responsiveness or battery life, after all), and vanishingly few if any "super hot tight loops." Same again with game engines like Unreal. It does have data processing hot loops like physics simulations, but it also has audio paths, rendering, AI, etc... that are also all still very much hot. Even the code that does loading, a "rare" event, is still hot because the user is blocked on it.

The "hot data processing loop" definitely exists in some systems, notably those that really just do one single thing, but those are also far from even the majority case. At least not on anything where the end user is directly paying the computational bill (aka, very few client apps fit the "single hot loop" profile)

But if you go pitch Apple with a "hey, we want iOS to be 20-30% slower because some people are uncomfortable with narrow contracts" they would rightly laugh you right out of the room.
Well yes obviously!

What's frustrating is that sometimes I hit the pattern of saying "no," and then the salesperson ignores my response and continues to sell the warranty.

At that point I will usually raise my voice and say something like "I said no," as if I was talking to a nagging teenager. Then the clerk will take an insulted tone and say something like, "I'm just doing my job."

So what do you do in those situations??
I've lived in nyc for close to 20 years and never needed own a car. Between the subway, buses, and taxis (and uber, etc. nowadays) there is no reason to own a car unless you're using it to drive others around.
same here by me in a random part of the US. My house sits on a street that is not incorporated by the local city so the sheriff has jurisdiction over it and won't bother to send a squad car to watch for speeding. It's a residential street that is very straight for the area and easy to see on. The speed limit is 35 mph but I have clocked people going 80 mph past my house. I think people know it for being a good road to speed on. One car used both lanes to do a speed test and the marks are still on the street, smoke all over my yard from that one.

I noticed it increased after 2020. My theory was here at least that people got accustomed to speeding from the empty roads and lower enforcement but I think the extremely low interest rates let people get into the car market and a lot of people bought obnoxious cars and modded them. Some people must like that noise. I think it's a signal of how their car is fast and they are willing to flaunt rules.
Scooters are often 2-stroke. They have centrifugal clutches so they need to be revved high to engage and accelerate. They are also cheap and a large portion seem to have failed mufflers. These three things make them particularly annoying even if they aren't the loudest things on the road.

“Cruise said one of its self-driving Chevy Bolt EVs entered an intersection on a green traffic light at Polk and Turk streets when it was struck by an emergency vehicle that appeared to be en route to an emergency scene.”

Hard to imagine a scenario in which an emergency vehicle with its lights and sirens on is at fault here. Normal traffic is required to STOP in this situation, even if the traffic light is green.

I agree. The reason small tools are simple and have few bugs is that they don't do the whole job! They say "here are your modules! now you do the last bit of programming to integrate them and do all the integration testing please. good luck!"
Education, however, consistently leads to better outcomes. White collar workers are doing well across the country (US). Forget about tech, accountants, HR professionals, economists, risk analysts, project managers, etc. are all doing well. It's predominantly the un- and under-educated that are being left behind.
A friend of mine just delivered a MAUI project and his opinion is that it is not production ready. He said that fundamental things like correct back button behavior is broken. I don't know any more specifics, but do serious critical research before choosing MAUI.
The article mostly focuses on educated youth and white collar jobs (though it does touch on blue collar). But why would they start with an example of someone making less than half the average income of Chinese (about 10000 yuan iirc)? Sure, if you are in the bottom 25% of income, things will look bleak. I am not saying that is not the issue, but the article is not about that topic.
I agree. He said he paid both with cashiers check and credit card and so my assumption is that a bank temporarily holds ownership (and financial liability) while the credit card charge becomes fully settled. I assume there was some issue with the settlement of the credit card payment (likely not the posters fault) and so there appeared to be an owed balance.

My guess is the OP did not in fact fully legally own the car at the time of towing. Which is further supported by him not having the title and financing having to change the name on the pending title

This looks more like a bank’s fault than Tesla’s fault though of course Tesla has a responsibility for the banks it chooses to affiliate with

So much argument from agenda in this space that the facts are irretrievably stained for most people; I think.

Even if you have an opinion on the question; you're better off voicing the opinion of your tribe instead, lest ye be shunned.

I'll be very surprised if MS will ever support rust bindings for media foundation. That thing is COM based, requires users to implement COM interfaces not just consume, and is heavily multithreaded.

About SIMD, automatic vectorizers are very limited. I was talking about manually vectorized stuff with intrinsics.

I've been programming C++ for living for decades now. Tried to learn rust but failed. I have an impression the language is extremely hard to use.
Does a possibility of a Python API figure anywhere in your roadmap? Or am I missing the point here? Seems like it would be a smart choice to have one on the statically-typed side, and one on dynamically-typed side?

That is definitely not a question asked enough. Many people complaining about things they don’t use/vote for/etc. So they want to use but don’t because ‘it’s is not what I want’ or lie they don’t and yet do (which is better).
There are some superficial similarities between the two figures, but I don't think we should take the similarities too seriously. Benjamin Franklin helped found the United States, became ambassador to France, and made original scientific discoveries and inventions. Elon's main contribution has been having enough money to hire smart people to drive the development of pre-existing technologies. It's hard to imagine him becoming ambassador to anything or having his own original scientific insights.

Not all of of the memes Musk posts are harmless. Some of them are promoting dangerous QAnon and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Ben Franklin wasn't a saint either; he owned slaves. But at least he became an abolitionist later in life. It remains to be seen where Musk goes politically.

Different system start points for sure (representative democracy and shades of capitalism vs authoritarianism and faux capitalism), but the outcomes being similar is undeniable. Why? That’s what’s interesting. Is it solely a demographic compression story? Generational inequality also appears to be a contributing factor.

It’s hope (or lack thereof), which is a lever for aggregate motivation across a labor force participation cohort. No hope, no effort. Meaningful work is also a component.

Similar story with an $800 Asus monitor. The power supply blew inside warranty, I shipped it back in the original packaging, and they flaked on the warranty because the panel was cracked. Almost certainly on their side. They strong-armed the matter, but my proof pictures were a bit fuzzy so I didn't feel like I had a small claims case or anything. They won. Ugh.

Similar story with a $300 Fitbit. The battery died inside warranty (shorted capacitor) and they flaked. I bought off Amazon, but I guess you have to watch closely which store because only some of them come with a "manufacturer's warranty." Really? They can mention a manufacturer's warranty in advertising and then just drop it in fine print somewhere? Ugh.

Warranties are trash in the US.
Unless of course you took out massive student loans for that education and failed to study an employable skill, those silly 18 year olds, not able to understand the shifting labor market and make sensible 30 year predictions on what skills will be desired.
Plenty of projects ship a) reproducible and b) application binaries.

serde-derive is a macro that is used in the compilation of projects. The way the developers have implemented it, when you build a project _from source_, it pulls and executes a binary blob against your code.

The binary in serde-derive is not reproducible (at least, there is no published hash and other users haven't been able to compile the same binary on their computers), and saves a very minor amount of time - serde-derive has to be compiled once per project per compiler version, unless you delete your dependencies.

I feel most people who hate Tailwind never had to deal with the problems it is trying to solve.

It does things in a brain dead way to protect you from other people’s idea of cleverness.

Also in corporate settings apps and sites don’t follow sensible rules, you think you’re gonna have a few sensible classes for a few different components?

Well marketing decided that they need 50 small variations of just one component, of course it makes no sense to you, but that’s the requirement so shut up and do it.

If you’re not using Tailwind you end up with 50 exceptions and your normal CSS quickly becomes unmaintainable.

Tailwind is the mad solution perfectly suited for a mad world, and only people who hate it are those who don’t have to deal with madness.

The story that somehow the Chinese government tried to censor somebody in Hong Kong (pre-2019) for saying a non-state-owned-enterprise was doomed didn't seem quite right.

So I looked it up.

https://apps.sfc.hk/edistributionWeb/gateway/EN/news-and-ann...

It looks like this Andrew Left claimed Evergrande was insolvent in *2012*. This seems more specific than "the company was doomed". I suspect the claims in 2012 was at least a bit of a hyperbole, since you'd have to hide it pretty well to keep being insolvent for 10 years. From what I read the trigger of the Evergrande blowup was over leveraged loans and a slowing property market, the situation would have been a bit different in 2012.

This seems like a case of "predicted the last 9 of the 5 recessions". I'm not sure a company blowing up 10 years after he said it was doomed is much vindication except to the extent that maybe it was really a crappy company after all.
Sometimes implementations will spend a little too much time in Python interpretation, but yeah, its largely lower level code.

The problem with PyTorch specifically is that (without Triton compilation) pretty much all projects run in eager mode. That's fine for experimentation and demonstrations in papers, but its crazy that its used so much for production without any compilation. It would be like using debug C binaries for production, and they only work with any kind of sane performance on a single CPU maker.
Ok, but why is there sound in the first place? What does it add to the experience other than confusion and frustration?
Exactly. Rather than complain, it would make more sense to go use a different platform. I don’t think that was your intended point, though.

>Don't buy anything from WD.

I don't doubt your bad experience. But do you really think that there do not exist other customers of other vendors with similar, or even worse, stories? The tacit assumption is that if even one such story exists, then one should avoid the vendor, but I question if that's ever really possible past a certain scale. (Which is an indictment of scale itself! But that's another discussion)

It reminds me of an HN post during the Covid lockdowns telling people not to go to the hospital because they got MRSA at a hospital and were still dealing with it years later. It's not that they were lying, it's that they were giving bad advice based on their experience. It's a risk/reward calculation. If one bad experience is enough to delegitimize every service or product, then there would be NO services or products available to us.
Bambu had a pretty big marketing campaign with their printers. All the major reviewers/influencers in the 3d printing community were provided review samples, and presumably talking points to emphasize. Most all reviews focused on the high print speeds and advanced technology in the printers.

Things like the nearly required cloud integration were glossed over with "that's normal today and you get so many shiny features with it" and hardly anyone challenged Bambu by saying that most of the features enabled by cloud integration didn't really need the cloud to be implemented. Things like immature firmware were glossed over with comments like "there are some bugs but that can be fixed over time, so just go ahead and assume that this young company without a proven track record will provide good support to these printers."

Add the marketing to the consideration that there were no other pre-built "fast" printers when the Bambu printers hit the market. Your only other option was to build your own like a Voron, which many people didn't want to do. Now there are other pre-built options that don't require cloud integration, so people can really weigh the pros/cons of the other options, but Bambu got an advantage by being first to market.

Possibly. It's wierd he's so enamored with apl which just seems to me like languages focused an algebra designed around arrays.

Algebra based designs can be formed around many data structures and many languages generalize this concept like Haskell. With Haskell you can create your own algebraic DSL around arrays and anything else you can think of. It seems he's enamored with the specific array instance of algebra based designs and unaware of how it's only one specific case of a general concept.
