Serious question; Does Meta have access to / can they benefit from the code that users produce using their coding AI tools? (no judgement, just curious?)
If that's the case, why did they release Bard?

Most people considered Bard to be a lesser alternative to ChatGPT, launched as a pitiful attempt by Google to show that they are still relevant to the AI game. Definitely a fumble to me.
We have ways of counting that are similar without additional overhead.

Hours, days, weeks, months, quarters, years, decades, mid-life, before death.

Time dilation is powerful, while life division is also undervalued.

I think in terms of accomplishments with deadlines and progress. My son had to dress himself by 3. That was the goal starting at 2.5. And 1 year later, it's accomplished.

The goal pushes progress. I require effort, not the result. The discipline gets easier as the effort is measured.
I'd say it is the opposite.

Back when I first got online, most people calling themselves programmers were self-taught and they usually had a very strong interest in learning adjacent skills so we had plenty of discussions about best practices and data types on IRC.

And then the mass-manufactured 6-week bootcamp "consultants" arrived and basically just used whatever algorithm shows up first on StackOverflow. Those folks are mostly in it for the money, so they won't learn about algorithms in their free time because there is no direct link from knowing them to a salary increase. They also rarely participate in group discussions, but instead jump in and interrupt everyone else to ask for help on their specific problem.

And that's why some of the old self-taught people now look like 10x engineers (in comparison to those bootcamp consultants).
I’m shopping for anything EV other than a Tesla now. There are many options now, but Tesla is still way ahead with the power train. Most competitors aren’t at the same place on range & performance yet.

It’s an amazing power train glued inside a 90s-era Oldsmobile.
They've been taking money for cars with hardware capabilities to later become full-self driving, to my understanding. Could consider it taking money to pre-order FSD, but GP's point that it wasn't released yet is still relevant.
Yeah, and I think something that is often missing in the colloquial understanding of innovator's dilemma is that the organization with the dilemma isn't doing anything wrong; they end up in a losing game despite making the right decisions.

I feel like a better name for it would be "disruptor's advantage", because that focuses on the more active side of the game, the side with more agency, rather than the more passive side.
It was exaggerated example on purpose, but it's not very far from the truth. Many "Open Source" projects are licensed under a permissive or weak-copyleft license, everything incl. the source is put out there, hence you have the four freedoms, theoretically.

A nice example: Try to "run" GitBook in a self hosted manner. You're free to do that. The code is out there. The license allows it, but there's no docs, and code is a landmine, probably.

As I said before, try to use VSCodium in a useful manner. You won't be able to do that. You can incorporate parts of it to your tools, but it won't work as well as the "closed source, official" VSCode, because it's designed to be like that [0].

So, saying that every license allowing four freedoms is an open source license, or even saying that "every application which has a valid, vetted Open Source license" is Open Source software is a stretch nowadays.

Lastly, we seen that not many companies thought about the ramifications of open sourcing their code properly. Elastic & HashiCorp are just two examples we made some noise about.

> And then you can spend your whole life using it for several projects. You cannot do that with perl. That's why awk has a longer shelf life than perl.

A Perl developer would of course say you have this completely backwards and even if I haven't programmed Perl much, or even at all for the last decade I would tend to agree.
By default it does use tcc on most platforms, because tcc is awesome for quickly compiling C, and so iteration while prototyping with it is usually much more enjoyable than with gcc, clang or msvc.

You can pass `-cc gcc` to use another C compiler for example, instead of tcc.

There is also a native backend, that generates executables directly, without generating C, then using a C compiler to compile it. You can use `-b native` to try it, instead of the more developed C backend. Note that the native backend, is still work in progress though and it does not support some language constructs.
The reason trans people suffer with their natal puberty and hormones is not because they aren't receiving enough hormone, but because they're receiving the wrong hormones which disrupt the brain and/or cause undesired sexual characteristics (including bodily proportions and bone/fat distribution) which cause existential mental distress. Giving extra testosterone to men with low testosterone may help, but giving extra testosterone to trans women forced through a male puberty is psychological and physical abuse.

Why not? What's the limiting factor? Video bandwidth?

For the particular case of e-bikes, if they have a right to repair, do I also have a right to not live in the same apartment building as some guy who exercised his "right to repair" his e-bike battery? It really seems like factory refurbished battery packs are sufficient accommodation for consumers and the external risk to the public from YOLO DIY bozos is high enough to blunt this "right".
Yeah, that exact same problem could easily affect someone who spent hours cobbling together the same awk script from Google searches and StackOverflow.
Twitter need distributed editorship. If a tweet is inflammatory, viral, or incorrect, a group of respected users can suppress it or edit them to remove bait headlines. This would be similar to the Wikipedia editor model. Editors can be elected and their actions would be a matter of public record. This would give us a democratic republic of tweets. Eventually users would learn to tweet quality items.
It's not worth it to me. I learn on the job. Your job really should be willing to set aside time for you to learn things. It's not mentally healthy for me to continue work related things after hours. I need to exercise, rest, spend time with kid etc. Otherwise, major burnout will ensue.

The management is there to manage people and their work, not to understand what developers are doing (otherwise they would be developers too).

This seems to imply that the income of gambling companies also has doubled. It probably also means that the number of people with problem gambling has increased.

Many experts warned the government that legalizing online gambling was the wrong way to go. With the legalization also came a flood of advertisements on TV and Internet, targetting young adults. Attempts to reduce the impact of those advertisements have proven difficult. Influencers have profitted from this.

Here's my take: you don't really own something if you can't repair it. Manufacturers prefer you don't really own their products: they own it, they service it, you use it, and they charge you for the "experience." It's created a throwaway culture that's an environmental disaster. We need to figure out how to right this course.

Homework shouldn't exist anyway. Maybe, for higher level high school classes it makes sense. There's no reason to be giving homework to elementary and middle school kids. They get them for 8 hours a day, they don't need to be spending more time on school stuff after school.

This romanticization of a single genius creating or arranging this work 2500 years ago never stuck with me. Obviously, this seems an anachronism of violently imposing the modern concept of authorship. I wouldn't go so far as to declare "The Death of the Author"[0] but I find it a provocative stance against the over-reliance on the supposed, hidden or even unaware intentionality of an author.

While it is certainly interesting to entertain the idea of an author it can only be a rudimentary and fragmentary picture at best, given the discontinuity of the text itself, its sources and the time which had since passed.

What I find more fascinating than the search for a single authorship is how the written sources give us a peek into a lively oral tradition.[1]

What we understand today as "texts" must have been radically different back then, for the vast majority of people at the time there was no such thing as a final reference in the form of a written text, the presenter itself was the source.
Infamously in the western tradition Socrates introduced by Plato is known for his refusal to write things down, the arguments given in Phaedrus against writing can be easily discarded today, but I think the effort put into the mastery of the spoken word in order to tell captivating 'stories' (or like in the case of Socrates engaging in arguments) must have been extraordinary to witness back then.

Which part particularly debunks? It appears ambivalent to me. For example, pages 20-21 seem to conclude that "The use of 18650 cells with the same form factor but different internal chemistries creates the risk that a replacement 18650 will have a different internal chemistry from the original 18650, placing individuals and independent repair shops at risk of inadvertently causing thermal runaway events." As a person who already had to flee one structure fire caused by a DIY hoverboard battery, I am sympathetic to this line of argument.
If you pass a pointer (or anything with reference semantics) by value you can still get non local mutation through it without obvious call site syntax.

There is no perfect solution. Avoid out parameters if possible, otherwise make the semantics clear via function naming or at least parameter naming conventions.

I'm going to suggest something like and iPad + Kybook3 app for ebooks. It'll let her read ebooks at whatever size makes her comfortable, and then easily have it switch to speaking the text. Get her used to text-to-speech in a way that still lets her go back and forth. You have to enable and play around with a few iOS settings to make it all ideal. Speech is surprisingly good now and will only get better.

It is usually not a good idea to disrupt one's own cash cow, but once someone else has already done so, it is usually a good idea to compete for that new market. (The thing they do seem to have dropped the ball on, though, was to not have their competitor ready to be good enough soon enough.)

And they are, indeed, very impressive. But the nature of the language makes their task extremely difficult, and in my experience they aren't reliable.

Besides the issue of C++ being just hard to compile (global symbol mutation via the macro system, the way templates instantiate, the compilation unit as the fundamental element of compilation meaning any individual compilation unit can require hundreds to thousands of include files as input), the language is rife with undefined behavior and assistive tooling is allowed to crash on undefined behavior. So, yes, if your tooling crashes it may indicate a problem with your code---but how are you going to find it now that your tooling has crashed?

We've had a couple of initiatives at my organization to try and get tooling operational across the code base. They haven't stuck. Developers keep having to fall back to grep and pray.

I prefer working with languages where there are simply fewer features and less undefined behavior. It makes the tooling more reliable.
It's amazing to me that, after all these years, people are surprised at how bad Microsoft is at security. I genuinely don't understand why companies use their products after decades of egregious security vulnerabilities.

Grant, a paper millionaire prior, discovered that he had lost his entire fortune in a Ponzi Scheme. Realizing that he needed to find a way to pay back the loan and support his family, Grant turned to writing. Mark Twain convinced Grant to sign a contract with his nephew’s new publishing firm, Charles L. Webster and Company, to write his memoirs. To sweeten the deal, Twain offered Grant a seventy percent royalty from the profits. The need to write the memoirs quickly became more urgent when Grant was diagnosed with inoperable throat cancer that worsened with time. Grant worked vigorously throughout early 1885 to write the memoirs. He and his wife Julia also relocated in June to a friend's cottage in upstate New York at Mount McGregor to continue writing in a peaceful setting. Grant spent upwards of five to seven hours a day working on the book, aided by his son Frederick and other assistants who checked facts. His servant Harrison Terrell and Doctor John Hancock Douglas also played a crucial role by tending to Grant’s medical needs and provided comfort during moments of great pain. Grant finished the Memoirs three days before his death on July 23, 1885. When "The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant" were published later that year, they became an instant best-seller. The first paycheck to his widow, Julia Dent Grant, was for $200,000, providing long-term financial stability to the Grant family.
Always struck by contrast - aviation regulators who’ve embraced and benefited immensely from no-fault safety reporting can’t seem to rationalize that the entire medical qualification system for pilots is killing people (literally in the case of German Wings).

System as designed encourages concealment by ending careers and destroying livelihoods. One obviously can’t fly commercial airliners impaired or with a material medical condition, but one can’t manage that risk without data. We need a no-fault early retirement fund or some similar mechanism needs to be out there to help get psychologically distressed pilots out of the cockpit and into treatment…with a possible path back too.

Just a terrible and inhumane situation all around.
Agreed, this isn't learning, this is keeping up to date with things. Some of this might lead to stuff you want to learn, but that comes on top.

This looks to me like a "cold shut", which is a type of casting defect.

"Cold shuts occur when two relatively cold streams of molten metal from different gates meet and do not fuse together properly during the casting process. This problem is visible to the naked eye – giving the appearance of a crack separating the two sections."

Cracks caused by impact have sharp edges and cracks caused by cold shuts have more rounded or sandy looking edges.

Street-running means a train or tram that has rails that are "in the street".

Here's an extreme example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tQy49yJyvc

But for transit you often have something like this: https://youtu.be/NpwIc35tqUk?si=zeG5iqiAhROtf6NW&t=191

Something like that needs a much different "locomotive profile" than a train that entirely stays on grade-separated rails. A tram that can be stopped at a stoplight like a bus needs visibility from the cab so that the operator can ensure there isn't a child in front of the train before moving.

This means you end up with a front that ... looks like a bus. Compare to high-speed trains, or even subways (subway operator visibility is often pretty low).

(American rails are separated into "light and heavy" where heavy rails have some very significant requirements due to sharing the lines with freight, etc. And the freight locomotives are designed to protect the engineer in the case of a high-speed grade collision. Something that is not supposed to be possible with euro/Japan style high-speed rail; a ducknose hitting a semi truck would push the truck right into the cab.)
> I don't think I'm alone

I doubt you're alone but my suspicion would be that you're in a very small minority.

These are two separate things. In general, those who primarily trust the former do not place the same level of trust in the latter, and vice versa. Finding those who trust in both seems a rare thing.

> I think if you ask people "do you think politicians can generally be trusted to work for the common good of their constituents"

It's been my observation that many people who vote do so on a "least worst" basis. National statistics bodies collecting data on levels of trust in public representatives rarely post figures above 50%.
