I mean, physically speaking, unless you are deliberately going fully Procrustean on your computations, there's no way to really avoid those types of micro-architectural side-channel disclosures. It's a trade-off. Either you get the computation result faster (but you have side-effects that can be measured as an alternate form of info disclosure), or you trade some minimum possible execution time to gain fewer side-channels through which unintended disclosure can happen.

This is very similar to the app start-up craze that apple triggered. After every new iOS release or new FB announcement there were a multitude of app startups that were made redundant. For example there were plenty of startups focused on bookmarking websites, or sharing notes, or allowing in-game adverts.
The Privacy Policy is deceptive. It says:

No, I think that mobile apps are either time killers - for example, for watching funny videos while riding a train, or messengers - to ask employee questions while riding a train.

A business app on a phone doesn't make much sense because in office you have a computer with a large monitor and a proper keyboard which is more convenient to use than a smartphone's tiny screen.

I've been running a low-ish volume site since 2014. It gets a YoY increase in traffic of like 20%. We didn't really do much SEO, at least not consistently enough that it warrants a consistent 20% YoY increase.

Then last year I made a English version of that website. Traffic has been very very slow initially, but slowly and steadily increasing. I suspect if we don't do anything to it for a couple years traffic will just keep increasing just like the original.

I generally have better things to do than to jump onto the cargo cult that is SEO, but the GP's description of how Google throttles web sites is exactly what I observe anecdotally, and is exactly how I hypothesized what Google is actually doing (without doing any SEO research).

Of course, there's not going to be any conclusive "proof" of such claims unless they admit it themselves, or unless you start an antitrust lawsuit against Google.

I definitely agree it's not a good idea to route all traffic to a new site that hasn't "proven" itself through some test of time, but that's more evidence that they're probably doing this throttling.

See my reply to the earlier comment. More than half of Canadian forests are "commercial¨, i.e., tree plantations.
Except that means tools aren't doing "one thing" as in the Unix philosophy. Or least I know of very few unix tools that actually do that. At a minimum they need to bundle an argument parser (or more often reinvent their own). They also need to do the same for generating output, often in multiple different display formats depending on the precise flags used.

And I think your overstating the contract argument. If `ls` changed its output format in any way (unless behind a flag) it'd break a heck of a lot of bash scripts. With a well structured output format it's better able to maintain backwards compatibility while adding new features.
To a certain extent, yes.

On the other hand, development tools simply require a lot of resources: a debug build is always going to be more demanding than a production build, and a full recompilation of something like Firefox is never going to be fast.

I reckon a lot of developers are more than happy to sacrifice 8GB of RAM for near-instant advanced autocomplete and typechecking, but we should keep in mind that it should not become a requirement to do basic development.

I'm not really sure on your definition of "authenticity" but it seems to me that TikTok users are optimising for the algorithm, for engagement and for advertising revenue just like on every other platform. If anything, TikTok seems to give users the power to be even more annoying and repetitive, between the computer-generated voiceovers and the same few songs being used over and over again ("oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no").

Social Media is a word that means less than the sum of its parts. It is not just the word Media modified by being Social; it was invented to describe algorithmic feeds like Facebook and Twitter. Discord is not social media. Discord is a forum, a type of thing that existed before social media.

Social Media's organizational principle is the user page, while Forums are organized by community and discussion topic. Reddit is also not social media, despite having some algorithmic features, because it is organized by community/thread, not by social network. You go to a subreddit to read the posts there, not to a user page to follow them.
JSON seems to have established itself for this to a large extent already. I can imagine a binary format like MsgPack to work well for this too but I think JSON is good enough and popular enough that it could actually be embraced widely.

I am actually saying that, yes - the value doesn't come from the current show, it comes from nostalgia, rarity and the drive to collect things. I'd bet that most people with Pokemon card collections, for example, do not currently watch the cartoon series.

>Yet the company behind Pokemon did all those things you mentioned — and it is in fact the exclusive rights holder to the IP

Yes, Nintendo, the Pokemon Company and its shareholders are engaged in common enterprise. Purchasers of Pokemon cards are not.

>Finally, using assets as security / collateral for debt doesn’t mean that the assets are investment contracts.

I didn't say it did. It was part of the argument that the company believed the coins had appreciating value. What about the rest of it? "promoted it as an investment opportunity, they acknowledged its growth aligned with their company and they encouraged people to hold on to the coins so that they would appreciate in value despite new issuances." Does the Pokemon Company do that?

Surely this argument could also apply to hardware. A piece of hardware's interface would be its API, which would surely mean that any software written to use that interface (drivers) would be a derivative work.

Which in the case of proprietary hardware, using non-standard interfaces, would mean that software would need a license from the manufacturer to be distributed.

> But, I guess if OpenTF is taking a position of "Use us instead of Terraform", then they shouldn't expect to get the usage of Hashicorps infra.

It’s totally something they can do, but it seems short-sighted. They had to know that this wouldn’t actually stop the momentum around OpenTF, but just result in HashiCorp giving up the control they have over the canonical namespace.

As precedent, Docker allows Kubernetes and Podman to access its registry, for example.
They also have separate downloads for "Teams for home" and "Teams for work or school" that end up running as different applications.

I've had 3 monitors at one point on my main dev box of which 2 were 32" 4K. It became tiring very fast. I went to a single one. First it was 40" 4K but it proved to be too much neck bending to look at. So I've finally settled to a single 32" 4K and am happy (I use it at 100% scaling). Smaller monitors - no thanks, not my cup of tea. I know it is possible and I used to program on tiny ones in my young days but fuck it. Do not want to go back.

> It just isn't viable anymore and the viability is declining, since solar/wind, storage etc. keep improving at an amazing rate.

Yes renewables are growing at an amazing rate. But they don't cover countries' energy needs entirely, all the time. Which you need for a power grid.

The storage problem is by no means solved. And eg. hydro is only an option in a few places.

So you need other power generation to fill in the (big!) gaps.

Right now, that's a choice between a) let power grid go down, b) fossil, or c) nuclear. Note this is temporary! Only needed until sufficient storage comes online to let renewables do the job.

Given the urgency of the situation we're in, I see nuclear as the lesser evil here. And it's very annoying that NGOs like Greenpeace are actively blocking that escape hatch with their outdated stance. They should NOT get in the way of those working to reduce CO2 emissions. Even if nuclear.
Germany used to be extremely restrictive about the set of character sequences that were allowed as given names. Some of that is probably still in place. When everybody was called Fritz or Hans or Gundula plus some word describing an ancestor's profession (it's all following the pattern of Smith and Miller), the order didn't really matter and that freedom was liberally abused: contexts that use the formal as identifier (Schmidt, Müller) and the given name only as a tie-breaker on collision will happily put the family name first, despite the reverse being specified in the terms themselves (Vorname and Nachname translate to pre, post, they really don't leave anything open to interpretation).

But those informal regional order conventions? I read them as formalized disrespect for the individual: "you're not Hans who happens to be a Müller, you're a Müller who happens to be Hans. And the Müllers, they are part of us, so subsume!" Those regional things can be quite peculiar: a childhood memory of my mother (northern Germany) is that as a child she was sometimes referred to as given name + name of the family farm, I suspect not in that order. With that farm's name still being the name of the family that ran ran it before her family took over, at some point between the thirty years war and the industrial revolution.

i learned lisp, but i don't use it actively. so macros don't matter for me as much, but i have written a few parsers for s-expressions in other languages, most notably i have one in javascript. what is critical for that parser is that parentheses () do the grouping, and that whitespace is the separator between keywords and values.

with class=foo you introduce another separator, complicating the code needed to parse this. if you could use a space here, then i could use my already existing parser to convert this into json or even directly into html without needing any additional code to figure out class values.

simple s-expression parsers in many languages can be found here: https://rosettacode.org/wiki/S-expressions

Outside of the English speaking world (and Japan) iOS market share is generally much lower than particularly in the US.

I would be tempted to say this is because a lot of the iOS pitch is “trust Apple because you don’t trust the regulatory environment” whereas in places like Germany the regulatory trust is higher so that pitch sounds weaker.
Or, you know, you could go the Canadian route--i.e. grant permanent residence to high-skilled immigrants (which lets them become citizens), and not treat immigrants (i.e. granting immigrants permanent residence) as a matter to be viewed with disgust, hatred, callousness, and contempt.

Also, Canada rapidly transitions temporary work visa holders into permanent residents, instead of letting them languish as visa holders without basic rights for decades like the US.

Thanks for providing context Jeremy. Fast AI has done an admirable job in communicating its commitment to an ethical pursuit of AI advancement. Do you feel such a commitment aligns with the bellicose rhetoric found in a16z's vision? Here is Marc Andreessen in a recent essay...

"There is one final, and real, AI risk that is probably the scariest at all:

AI isn’t just being developed in the relatively free societies of the West, it is also being developed by the Communist Party of the People’s Republic of China.

China has a vastly different vision for AI than we do – they view it as a mechanism for authoritarian population control, full stop. They are not even being secretive about this, they are very clear about it, and they are already pursuing their agenda. And they do not intend to limit their AI strategy to China – they intend to proliferate it all across the world, everywhere they are powering 5G networks, everywhere they are loaning Belt And Road money, everywhere they are providing friendly consumer apps like Tiktok that serve as front ends to their centralized command and control AI.

The single greatest risk of AI is that China wins global AI dominance and we – the United States and the West – do not.

I propose a simple strategy for what to do about this – in fact, the same strategy President Ronald Reagan used to win the first Cold War with the Soviet Union.

'We win, they lose.'

Rather than allowing ungrounded panics around killer AI, “harmful” AI, job-destroying AI, and inequality-generating AI to put us on our back feet, we in the United States and the West should lean into AI as hard as we possibly can.

We should seek to win the race to global AI technological superiority and ensure that China does not."

I don't think one needs to think too hard about the grave consequences a mission of "We win, they lose" may have for human survival.

Dynarmic – An ARM dynamic recompiler (AArch32/64 to x86-64/AArch64)
It happened to me in a large company I worked with. Someone, probably an admin sent an email to the entire company, literally tens of thousands of people in the "To:" field. Of course, a few of them replied-all, then others replied to tell people to stop replying, etc... The server couldn't follow and mail couldn't be delivered fast enough, prompting even more replies. Email unrelated to the incident took 30 minutes to come through. Admins had to intervene, and the servers were down for about 4 hours, everything related to the incident was deleted server-side, and probably blacklisted too. The client couldn't do much, we didn't even get that many emails (a few dozens at most) since the server couldn't deliver them.

It was a very expensive email for sure.
