> transpiling to C actually makes adoption much easier.

Well, maybe.

I like transpiling to C because it brings with it all the hyper-optimisation that has gone into C compilers over decades.

As a solo on-again/off-again language designer, I can attest that you really cannot fixate on language purity or similar stuff like that: the goal is to write a program in your new language as soon as possible, and implement the features that motivated you to create a new language in the first place.

Transpiling to C is, in practice, no different from transpiling to assembler, with the advantage of portability and instant environment support (can call C libraries).

I've got a featurelist I'd like to implement. Focusing on emitting machine-code or assembly eats away valuable time I could have instead used to create a feature, or 10.
> A typical venture fund has a 2% management fee…

> A $100M fund which does 4x earns the GPs $80M ($in carry, plus $20M in management fees)

Nope. 2% of $100M is $2M, not $20M.

> A $1B fund which does 1.5x earns the GPs $300M ($100M in carry, plus $200M in management fees)

Nope.
What I got from this is that if I use Klarna then they'll share any related information with OpenAI. This is not what I want.
Have you worked at a worker-owned company? I think, largely, a goal of worker-owned restaurants is to make the work experience less transactional. Is there anything besides stress (which is not mentioned in the article) that would make transactionality and outsized profit a necessary thing?
> if ... then one C910 core is about 4 times slower ... than a single Ryzen 5 5600x core

4x is the number I work with to approximate C910 vs current x86.

Which makes 64 core Milk-V Pioneer possibly comparable to a 16 core 7950x, but at $2k ready to use it's a lot cheaper than 7950x boxes I see on Amazon.

If your workload can keep 64 cores busy, of course. Many can't.
Here's my take as someone who works in the space: Vitalik is a thought leader. Devs in crypto highly respect him. His blog at vitalik.ca is mostly concerned with crypto and crypto-adjacent topics, it being the active focus point of Vitalik's research and development. He's been writing about crypto for 10+ years. If he wants to draw attention to community notes on his blog, he's probably primarily doing it just for the fun of thinking and writing, but as a nice side effect, I'm sure he wouldn't mind if devs in crypto took inspiration from community notes, particularly when it comes to building crypto-native social networks.

‘It depends’ - don’t forget about locking overhead, needing to flush multiple pages/leafs as thresholds get hit, disk I/O wait times, etc.

At the beginning it’s rarely noticeable, but it does exist and under heavy load or with a lot of index writes needing to happen it can cause very noticeable overhead.

Even a quiet helmet, at speed it's like a radio tuned to static turned up to a noise level just below painful. Windshields can actually make it worse, depending on airflow - turbulent air coming over the top and around the sides of the windshield is louder than clean smooth air. Windshields do more for fatigue, weather protection and aerodynamics.

I wear hearing aids due to motorcycle-related hearing loss, and I have never worn anything less than a full helmet.

There are a ton of cases in Brazil and various other countries in South America. Those of us that mostly consume media in English hear about cases in the US and UK for that very reason.

Perhaps it would be helpful to consider the path of a phonon going through a barrier. The odds of that phonon making it through is 1 chance in N. If there are two barriers, the odds of a phonon making it through both in series is 1 chance in N^2. That is, the odds multiply, and you are absolutely correct that dB's add (since they are basically log(N) in this case and log(N^2) = 2log(N)).
Or, and hear me out here, Ben's previous analysis was just wrong and he failed to see what Nvidia's gameplan was. He writes as if they did some serious soul-searching when their stock price was low (perhaps even reading some brilliant analytical blogs!), but the reality of product development in the chip/peripheral space is that nothing happens that fast. Nvidia is riding high now because so many big bets that they made years ago are paying off at once.
How else?

If you notice that some of your confidential info made it into next generations of the model, you'll be able to sue them for big $$$ for breach of contract. That's a pretty good incentive for them not to play stupid games with that.
Oh yeah, I'd be happy with saner HAM rules. The problem is that the community is sufficiently ossified that it actively resists such changes under the umbrella of "defending" HAM, so reallocation seems like a more practical method of change.
Lula, leader of Brazil (ie, the "B" in BRICS) is calling for a common currency.

"I am in favor of creating, within the BRICS, a trading currency between our countries, just like the Europeans created the euro"

This does not sound like just using the Yuan, and is more likely to gain support of the bloc. I'm pretty sure Lula and Modi do not want to trade one devil (US) for another (China).

The point I'm trying to make is that hobbyists vs. .0001%ers is a false framing because less restrictive rules would benefit a much wider set of users than just HFTs. If you compare the degree of open-source project activity between ISM and HAM bands the difference is night and day. Stuffing all that vibrancy into a few narrow bands while HAM activity above HF is practically dead is the opposite of a public good.

Re disaster support: complete and utter LARP to an embarrassing degree. I've been familiar with a variety of clubs all my life through participating family members and this simply doesn't happen in a way that has any practical benefit to anyone. Again, opening it up would improve disaster comms quality by incentivizing development of better protocols and by getting access to those methods out of the hands of the unqualified gatekeepers of clubs.
These points are solved by the workers electing an executive or directors who makes those decisions, until the workers are sick of them and replace them in an AGM or an emergency meeting.

Those same wealthy folks will install a battery component (just because they can) and will pay their own cost to produce have about the same effect as retail consumption/production. Tying fixed costs (infrastructure) to variable costs (power production) will always favor one group or another. Low consumers infrastructure costs are subsidized by higher consumers. It costs just as much to provide the grid access for 1 KWh/day as it does for 100 KWh/day.

"Right-to-Work" refers to the inability of unions to negotiate closed shops, where all employees of that "shop" must be part of the union.

You're thinking of "At-Will" employment, which allows employees and employers to end an employment relationship at any time for any (except for the few illegal) reasons.

Sadly, this is a big problem.

But, Rosetta is incredible.

My solution for now: build only on Intel based Macs and use the binaries everywhere, with Rosetta when needed.

I've had lots of errors running all kinds of builds with "error, arm64 code..." it's not a solved problem by a long shot.

Until the prevalence of M1/M2 is overwhelming, I'm just going to stick with Intel builds.
You missed the part where a license is a type of contract...

A copyright license is a contract, wherein the copyright owner agrees to allow a third party the use of their copyrighted material in exchange for [X]. X might be money, or it might be an agreement to limit how the copyrighted material is used. There isn't another document or anything that says "License to Use [Copyrighted Material]",

This means that losing the "license" is the same as saying you no longer have an agreement allowing you to use the copyrighted material.

What is "reasonable," what is "fair." These words signify a death spiral in wage discussions. The reality is that businesses cannot increase prices forever and have a market that still wants to pay them. If I sell burgers for $10k and they're shit burgers then I'd make no money and have to shut it all down. Just like my friend who shut down his cabinetry business because he was paying his employees more than himself (doing the "right thing"). He is a one man shop working out of his van and is doing much better, but his employees' wages became 0.

This was the idea behind Stripe's Veneur project - spans, logs, and metrics all in the same format, "automatically" rolling up cardinality as needed - which I thought was cool but also that it would be very hard to get non-SRE developers on board with when I saw a talk about it a few years ago.

> Social media is about me feeling that what I say matters.

I agree with where you are coming from, but I'm not sure social media is actually about that. Making you feel like your content is important is only a goal in-so-much as it incentivizes you to create hype-able content. Social media is a hype engine designed to take randos on the internet and make them famous in front of other randos on the internet. If caring for the needy generates hype, that's what gets hyped. If pranks generate hype, that's what gets hyped. If twerking generates hype, thats what gets hyped.

It's about maximizing engagement to maximize monetization. And that monetization ends up getting balanced with social pressures, PR nightmares, political pressure, and legal pressure. We have a hype machine willing to promote anything that doesn't get moderated away.

I'd say social networking actually captured what you are talking about here. It's goal was to connect friends, families, communities, peers, etc. I've seen that level of connection, that level of community building, manifest in real-world love/kindness.

I don't see that happen on social media outside of people going against the grain and forcing social networking through social media. I have first-hand experience of how surprisingly difficult social networking on social media is; primarily because of the recommendation algorithms drowning out social networking content.

> The problem isn't in the technology

But the issue is the technology. Centralized social networking failed because of the technology. Centralized social networking is expensive. Being a "free proxy server" and archivist for the entire world's communication is a hard technical and financial problem to solve. It's also legally expensive to host a bunch of other people's content for free. And it's socially expensive, people get very upset about what other people say, and get mad at you for proxying that content.

Offering to let the entire world communicate through a single central "town square" for free just doesn't appear to be viable.

The result was that it stopped being about social networking. That entire class of product silently died.

Social networking is dead. What we have now is social media.

One thought: wikipedias most important resource isn't content or servers or the software — it is people.

This idea is probably hard to imagine for a writer of the telegraph, but wikipedia has a social space of contributers that it needs to manage in order to reach their goal of becoming a better encyclopedia.

So in order to understand wikipedia lets think about how we could make it worse. A good encyclopedia has relevant content that represents the reality of the world it is written in. Now historically the best way to stray from reality has been to rely on writers who have an uniform background in regards to geography, economics, gender, race and so on. Naturally everybody has gaps in their perception, everybody has misperceptions or cliches in their mind — unavoidable. If you however want them to end up in an encyclopedia you need to make sure those writing and editing all have the same gaps and misperceptions so they never get challenged.

That means diversity in writers and editors is a means to make it less likely their gaps and misconceptions align. So a certain degree of "social justice" is probably necessary for an encyclopedia if it wants to maintain a broad set of people, otherwise we would have social injustice, or the rule of the strongest and the strongest isn't automatically factually correct.

But that would make sense, wouldn't it.
Generally shouldn’t the motivation to fund the “right” amount be with the VCs? Founders are going to ask for whatever they can right?

But VCs don’t seem to be interested in funding less…

> Everything is not a file.

A file is a collection of data, which usually has an associated identifier (filename and/or path). A USB mouse drive is not a file, but it can be represented as such.
Our monorepo is at ~500 megs right now. This is 7 years worth of changes. No signs of distress anywhere, other than a periodic git gc operation that now takes long enough to barely notice.

I can't imagine using anything else for my current project. In fact, the only domain within which I would even consider something different would be game development. Even then, only if the total asset set is ever expected to exceed a gigabyte or so. Git is awful with large blobs. LFS is an option, but I've always felt like it was a bandaid and not a fundamental solve.
With further context that seems much more reasonable then it did at first glance.
What do you think of configuring the device with a simple config file or even an sqlite database that is available via mass storage? Here I am taking inspiration from Kobo.

The config would point to the API that a user can deploy. Exposing more knobs through a config would be much easier than through a mobile app.

Overall, I am impressed with the device and the dev-friendly documentatio. I consider buying it. My use case would be to display weather and calendar - preferably together. The OAuth2 stuff is quite complex, so I appreciate that the company handles it on the backend.
That “report” is grade school level garbage.

Try to find the number of miles driven or crashes in the report, you know, the numerator and denominator. You will not find it because they seem to think that a “safety report” is a single number. You would fail a 6th grade science fair project if you did that.

And they seem to think it is okay to deliberately publish such a report for two ton machines with software that has killed dozens of people. They are either so stupid they should not be allowed near a safety-critical device or they are being deliberately deceptive to a level that would make Elizabeth Holmes blush.

So no, their safety report is anti-evidence for safety. Only somebody with something to hide would publish such a deficient and deceptive report.
Frank Zappa - The Central Scrutinizer

Lyrics:

This is the Central Scrutinizer...
It is my responsibility to enforce all the laws
That haven't been passed yet
It is also my responsibility to alert each and every one of you
To the potential consequences
Of various ordinary everyday activities
You might be performing which could eventually lead to
The death penalty - or affect your parents' credit rating...
Our criminal institutions are full of little creeps like you
Who do wrong things

To add on, a company who spends a lot of money on frivolous things or over-hires will need to pay the internal cost of downsizing when the time inevitably comes. That means layoffs, fewer employee benefits for those still employed, and general tightening of the belt.

There is a huge cost when you let go of people who would otherwise be kept on payroll if you could continue to pay them. You will get fewer internal referrals to new hires and remaining staff become less engaged in their work. There is additional long lasting damage to your staff as a whole who survived the layoff this time. The culture at the company shifts and never fully recovers.

I don’t think businesses always fully appreciate the long term cost and damage layoffs do to small and medium sized companies, but see headcount reduction as a simple way to reduce its own costs.

Neither here nor there, but that "meat by a different name" is most likely due to class divides in England after the Norman conquest. The French(ish) speaking Normans were the upper class getting the finished product, so the language reflects that - beef(boeuf), pork(porc), and, a mostly forgotten one, but poulet for chicken. Whereas the farmers/lower classes - those dealing with the animals themselves, were speaking Old English with Germanic derived words - pig, cow, chicken.
There are two dimensions to "everything is a file". The first is the concept of a hierarchical filesystem namespace. The second is the notion that read and write can be used as a universal interface to any resource from the perspective of the runtime environment (e.g. kernel). People focus myopically on the first aspect, but it's really the second that is the most important and most enduring.

The word "file" is ambiguous, and was used ambiguously in Unix documentation and papers. It of course meant an object with a name in the filesystem. But it also can refer to an object (whether or not existing on or even referenced by the filesystem) which is accessed using read/write, independent of how you acquired the reference (i.e. file descriptor) to that object. If you look at the whole of the Unix system, read/write over file descriptors is the backbone of the environment; process inheritance, shell redirection... much of the time a program has no idea how a resource reference was acquired, just that it can be accessed using read/write.

> On a more practical level, if someone is breaking into your house, should it be illegal to tell them to stop, on pain of you calling the police which presumably would cause them to be incarcerated?

Not a lawyer, but there's a fine line between extortion and not-extortion.

It's not extortion when you're making the threat to either stop an illegal behavior or secure something you already have rights to. Like, "I'm calling the cops if you don't return the kids on the time/date we agreed on in the goddamn divorce papers" is not extortion, because you have a legitimate claim to defend.

It is extortion when you're trying to use the threat of law enforcement as a means of engineering consent or coercing someone into doing something. Like, "I'm going to call the cops and tell them about your shoplifting unless you send me nudes/pay me $500/keep your mouth shut." You can't leverage withheld knowledge of a crime as a means of controlling someone. Otherwise it opens the door to "Remember that time you raped me? You need to do me another favor to make it right"-type of arrangements.

The first example would be extortion if the kids were returned late but it was not reported, and the other party continued threatening to report it after the fact to enforce future compliance.
