Let me be clear: I’m not advocating an either-or solution. My point is that the complex problem must be treated as exactly that. To me, just focusing on giving people housing is the antithesis of treating it as a complex problem.

Adding txtai to the list: https://github.com/neuml/txtai

txtai is an all-in-one embeddings database for semantic search, LLM orchestration and language model workflows.

Embeddings databases are a union of vector indexes (sparse and dense), graph networks and relational databases. This enables vector search with SQL, topic modeling and retrieval augmented generation.

txtai adopts a local-first approach. A production-ready instance can be run locally within a single Python instance. It can also scale out when needed.
A backend model is usually just called the model as it’s modeling the data domain (sometimes called ‘domain model’). The thing you pass to the frontend is the ‘view model’ which is often entirely different.

In some CRUD situations though, they can be nearly the same and you can convert the domain model into a specific view model with some kind of adapter (how people do this varies a lot). This adapter will take the end user security level into account, for example. Also, to avoid sending lots of useless data for a list, you can have a list view model. But if you do that, be sure to either keep the two in sync, or you have one and keep track of whether it’s partially or fully hydrated.
After reading this blog, I'm ashamed. I just graduated from college. In my high school, the education of physics was so boring and tiresome that I even hated it at one point. For this reason, I chose computer science rather than physics as my major in college. Later, I gradually became interested in physics, however, due to the lack of good enough study habits, atmosphere and courage (which is a self-deprecating way of saying cowardice and laziness), until now I have not taken a step forward. This is the decision I regret most in my life. I am going to the United States to study for a master's degree in CS. Maybe I can learn some physics during the freetime of the two-year program because the educational resources in the United States are more abundant(perhaps).

I watched the interview in the entirety. It basically him explaining why 99.99% of all the sightings can’t be trusted. He explains how some real but weird sighting can be explained with narrow expertise.

He is not just experienced, he was one of the top fighter pilots at that time. One thing is to fuck with campers and ufo “enthusiasts”, another is to go on record and testify before congress.
recheck that...
Agree with this. Of course because front-end still gets to build business logic, and back-end still ultimately decides the basis on which to build it, the decision making is spread more equally between them. Perhaps calling it "a washed out view" is not strictly appropriate, but worth acknowledging that the front-end is at the mercy of what back-end decides to provide it.
tl;dr: Around one quarter. Currently I am not focused on that, I first want to reach more people.

Until recently, the support period would auto-renew. Many people would forget about it and ask for a refund, so I decided to make it more user-friendly and make the support renewal "on demand". I am adding the update/renewal prompt in the app soon, we'll see how it goes.

As for the current number, it depends on whether the people are still using the product, most of them are. I would say around a quarter or less renew currently. Also, now, the support/updates is not exactly strictly enforced (I sometimes respond to support queries for people without a valid support period), but I am working on integrating a ticketing system that would require a valid support period, which should give more reasons to customers to renew.

You could make a similar argument about std::unique_ptr, that you can always use new and delete to create and destroy.

Which one of these (which implement the same copy/move semantics) would you prefer?

struct A {
box<int> thing;
}

struct B {
std::unique_ptr<int> thing;
B(std::unique_ptr<int> t) :
thing(std::move(t))
{}
B(const B& other) {
*this = other;
}
B& operator=(const B& other) {
if (other.thing)
thing = std::make_unique<int>(*other.thing);
else
thing.reset();
return *this;
}
B(B&&) = default;
B& operator=(B&&) = default;
~B() = default;
};

I've mentioned this many times before, but to me the pedo one was the one that opened my eyes about this guy. Because the rest of them you could say "hes an optimist, he believes it even if turns out hes wrong".

> when you pick up a dirty plate to reveal mold or wiggling pantry fly eggs

You're describing a hypothetical man who thinks dishes should be left in the sink until they grow mold and attract pests. Obviously mold and pests are bad, so this hypothetical man would be in the wrong.

But, most real relationship conflicts don't fit that hypothetical description! For example, last year there was a discussion on HN about leaving a dirty dish by the sink: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31000658 There was no mold or pantry fly eggs in that situation; the wife was upset about any dirty dishes being left by the sink at all, even a once-used glass of water.

And that's a much more complicated situation. It's common for different people to have different expectations for cleanliness: a husband might think it's OK for an empty glass of water to be left on the counter if he might drink from it later, but the wife might think that's "dirty". These are different points of view, and neither one is necessarily wrong.

Sometimes people try to frame this as "the husband is sexist and trying to make his wife do the chores" (or "he's inflicting executing function theft on her") but I don't think that's a correct or helpful framing. Like writeslowly and AceJohnny2 wrote above, this is a case of different people having different standards. That doesn't necessarily mean the one with lower standards is committing "executive function theft" on the one with higher standards.
A friend of mine was in management at a large company trying to build up infra to compete with AWS 10-15 years ago (they started this effort when AWS was only S3). This company was bringing in billions a year operating dedicated off-site data centers for other companies, and they saw that AWS was a major threat to their business model. They dumped many, many millions of dollars into building up their infra.

When they gave up, they concluded that AWS's core advantage was their optimization of the electricity needed for cooling. Given that my friend's company failed to design their systems to heavily optimize for this, the cost of electricity for cooling alone didn't let them get near AWS prices without incurring significant losses. He said that if they did it again, every part of the product would have a strict heat budget.

I tend to have these types of conversations with one of my good friends. Anything we both say to each other is honest and opinionated but we both know we don't come from a place of hostility. We are past the idea that one of us said something because we personally want the other person to suffer.
That's funny, I was thinking the same thing; that your insults are obvious and that your dissembling and condescension is unconvincing. I certainly don't have the wit to make a better argument that you're being insulting than your parting message, wishing that one day I'll get a grip. Laying it in pretty thick, wouldn't you say?

Good luck with all of that.
Solar thermal still works with clouds and under light snow, you might be thinking of concentrated solar but that’s a different story.

Also, storing a few hundred kWh of heat in a hot water tank is vastly cheaper than batteries. The real advantage of solar thermal is it can scale so well, thus allowing the benefit of a heated pool and later driveway without extreme expense. An expanded mindset around heat being so cheap means you can do things like warm an exterior patio for chilly fall days etc etc.
So weird seeing CL code without a bunch of (declare (type (integer 0) n))'s everywhere. That's the only thing which keeps me with CL instead of Scheme (I'm rather fond of syntax-rules, case-lambda, case sensitivity, and being able to do things like...

(define range+ (make-range-merger +))
(define (double-range range)
(range+ range range))

, which I think is a little nicer than

(setf (fdefinition range+)
(make-range-merger #'+))

or having to precede range+ with funcall everywhere I want to use it).

I don't think the Obama campaign really maps to being a "movement" in the sense of the author. Presidential elections happen whether or not there's a movement. A lot of his most ardent supporters may have been motivated by similar feelings, but not most people who voted for him and it's not like he exploited their devotion for anything beyond the normal responsibilities of being president.

I would so much love to see a society that can practice and refine governance, that can find ways to boost & help it's peoples. Investing in society is obviously good; it takes all kinds of somewhat marginal forms of existence & makes them more productive, useful, informed & involved civic people. Society has to believe in itself, and has to work for it's whole, to some degree.

But disbelief & ranchor & suspicion spread more broadly. Also, when we go legislate & govern, too often we don't re-assess, review, & re-direct our efforts; maintaining efficacy in our efforts to improve has to be iterative. But right now it feels like doing anything pro-social is hard to make happen.
Thanks. That 600% total estimate is much closer to what I expected. Don’t get me wrong. I admire bacteria but they are nowhere near as efficient as your initial comment suggested.
Yeah, there's a missing sentence or paragraph explaining it, but that was my impression too. The son who went rogue and purged the cabinets put three of them out on the street, only one has been recovered, according to the family. Something like that.

Yikes... digiconomist. Literally zero credibility there. His name is Alex de Vries and he works for the dutch central bank.

Could also look into the work of Troy Cross, Margot Paez, and Daniel Batten who are climate activists and pro-Bitcoin because of the incentives it provides around building out renewable energy and mitigating methane emissions.

And NY Times is notoriously anti-Bitcoin, to the point you have to ask, "do they have an agenda"?
Have you tried DLSS 3 with frame generation yet? Ray tracing performance hits are mitigated substantially, 4K included. What is more shocking to me is how low they got the latency on it; I have yet to notice perceptible lag when turned on (contrasting this of course with TVs that attempt to increase frames to achieve the 'soap opera effect', where lag becomes substantial). I just hope more games support it one day.

FSR may one day get much better, but in my personal preferences and tastes, I greatly prefer DLSS for upscaling. It tends to be sharper, better at fine details at long distances, and tends to do better with certain (literal) edge cases.
That adults have emotions isn't in question, whether they manage their emotional landscape or get managed by it is a matter of emotional resilience and maturity. I stand by my statement.
>> Solving problems is the only way to understand physics. There's no way around it.

The reason is that you think you understand what you read, but as Richard Feynman said:

> The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool.

You think you understand 90% of what you read, but in reality it's probably only 20-30%. By doing the exercises, at the very least you'll know that you don't know that much. And if you then reread the materials a few pages before, you'll realize that you have skimmed (or worse, skipped) some parts because you mistakenly thought you already understood it.

Another tips from my personal experience: When you're reading a textbook, keep asking in your mind questions with the types of "what if" and "how about," which are sometimes not yet explained in the section you're reading. Also, keep associating what you've recently learned with what you've already known (days ago, years ago).

Be curious and validate that you really understand what you think you understand.

I'll say kind of kills the enthusiasm if you don't have validation support.

I get the need for an MVP, but even a basic "Provide a regex and the max number of times to retry" would make this infinitely more useful.

That also lets you expand the concept down the line, like surfacing how a prompt change lead to increased retries.
Transparently copyable heap-allocated object would are a recipe for introducing invisible performance issues, especially in generic code.

Rust requires types to explicitly opt-in to being implicitly copied, while C++ requires you to opt-out by deleting the copy-constructor.

Accidentally copying small structs on the stack is a minor performance problem. Copying an std::box<int> in a hot loop could cause heap fragmentation, lock contention and huge amounts of wasted memory due to heap alignment requirements (32 bytes on 64-bit arches).
What I find interesting is that most of what you said is applicable to Bitcoin miners too.

> but I can attest that my company’s performance engineering team has been zeroed in every round of layoffs we’ve ever had.

That doesn't necessarily mean management doesn't care about efficiency and performance, it just means they don't value the performance team (right or wrong).
Lagrangian mechanics[0] is a compact way to describe the dynamics of a physical system using a single object/equation. You can think of it a a generic description of a system, from which you can extract the equations of motions of the particles forming that system: which is generally an important part of what physicists wants to achieve, i.e. predicting the motion of objects.

I'm not qualified to provide you with a more precise, still concise and (hopefully) still accurate description. However, if you want to dig further, the most beginner friendly introduction that I've stumbled upon is Susskind's The Theoretical Minimum - Classical Mechanics [1](there's a book & a series of videos).

A number of years ago, I saw a presentation funded by the Deep State and the programmers had called their software "Seldon". It took me a minute to remember the connection. But they were definitely of the type who wanted to predict and probably control the social parts of society. In other words, they aspired to be the Foundation. So in my mind, the books are already real.

> Is it money? If all the prices and salaries inflate 2x at the same time, the economy is twice as large without really growing.

I think that the blog post boils down to specious reasoning largely because it focus on "economic growth" but fails to even acknowledge the existence of inflation, not to mention recessions and outright deflations.
