According to Twinings tea:

Always use freshly drawn (filtered if possible) cold water in the kettle. Tea loves oxygen as it helps the flavour develop.

Most of us are guilty of the following... looking at the kettle seeing there is some old, used water in there and simply re-boiling.

If you keep re-boiling the water in the kettle, it loses all of its oxygen and you’ll be left with a really flat cup of tea.

If you boil the kettle with fresh water, you’ll have a delicious cup of oxygenated tea that tastes divine.

https://twinings.co.uk/blogs/news/how-to-make-a-cup-of-tea-p...

I'm not sure how much difference this makes, but when I use the hot water boiler at work, the tea definitely tastes slightly off compared to using a kettle at home. But it's also possible the hot water boiler at work is not producing hot enough water.

It's not even AMD's unwillingness to commit. They were among the first to implement Vulkan and OpenCL, and have a decent legacy of GPU hardware support. Their open-source kernel drivers on Linux are cream-of-the-crop, and their raster APIs are so good that they truly rival Nvidia.

The biggest issue is frankly that other stakeholders are doing their own thing, and pretending it's okay. Long-term, I think this will be Nvidia's real coup-de-grace; letting local devices do inferencing, while selling their GPUs to larger deployments and training applications. Stuff like CoreML and ROCm are nice, but don't directly threaten CUDA. If their competitors want to be rid of CUDA, then they have to gang up on them and offer a better alternative. Until then, Nvidia will have a market.

It's true what they say, nice guys really do finish last in this economy.

I clicked on the "more nuanced and comprehensive post" and the real TL;DR is "I define duplication differently than everybody else, and, by that definition, claim that duplication is always bad"
I passionately disagree with this. Abstractions inherently introduce some level of opaqueness and it's only useful in the context of making things more maintainable. Duplicated code is easier to reason about because its intent is closer to the problem it originally solved.

> But you should still know how to do it regardless. Because of situations like this. That is the point of my comment. If you can't do your job without ChatGPT, you don't have any business working in your field to begin with. Even if it's at a reduced speed, you still need to know how to do your job.

I'm currently using ChatGPT for a bunch of AI/ML that I don't know how the insides are working. But I'm able to build models from scratch that does exactly what I want, with 99% accuracy in my test cases, without actually knowing what the model does, but together with GPT4 + automatic hyperparameter tuning, I'm able to build models I can use in production.

Does it matter if I know exactly how everything inside in the model works, if I can get it to work exactly to my specification without it?

This is essentially how I started programming as well way back in time. I didn't know exactly what the Perl code I copy-pasted did, but if it solved the problem, it solved the problem. It brought me and my family out of poverty, and at that point I couldn't care less about how the magic actually was done, just that it did work.

Obviously now I have more knowledge about web field in general and 10+ languages that I no longer have to use any docs to be productive with, and maybe that'll happen with AI/ML eventually as well, but for a person who is starting with something new and wanna be productive quickly, GPT4 is a godsend.

I disagree that LLMs are always better for things like classification. But the barrier to entry is so low with them that it's usually worth trying to use an LLM before training some other model.

> ChatGPT does redistribute the code

My whole point is that I don't think that's legally true at the moment. There's enough difference in how generative AI works compared to pretty much anything before it that what ChatGPT legally does is up for debate. If a court rules that what ChatGPT does counts as redistribution then yes, I agree that they're likely violating copyright law, but AFAIK that ruling hasn't happened yet.
> Ruby seemed to be entirely tied to Rails.

I’d be interested in going one step further and asking why that was. Rails is great, but so is Ruby, but normally a great library like Rails helps attract developers to the language. Rails is the only example I can think of where a widely popular library (ostensibly) leads to fewer users of the language for other purposes.

I'm honestly stunned how often I see the pattern repeat of telling the users they are wrong [1], particularly in this MMO space that I'd dearly love to see more games in.

World of Warcraft ("WoW") is the elephant in the room. It killed the previous elephant (Everquest aka EQ) but has reigned supreme in a shrinking space for 18 years. It partially shrank because it used to have a social component that has mostly been replaced by social media but there are other factors too.

But what I scratch my head at is all the bad competitors that came afterwards and predictably failed because they made product decisions. The most common one is focusing on PvP. MMO is an interesting genre because only something like 10% of the population at best cares about PvP. So right off the bat you've reduced your potential market by 90% without doing a thing. But no, you get assured that "our PvP is so good, casuals will want to PvP".

There's another factor here too: in a persistent world where your power increases, PvP players fundamentally want an unfair fight. They want to be rewarded for various grinds. Contrast this with deathmatch and battle royale games where everyone is basically equal other than player skill.

Anyway, Star Citizen has now raised (and spent) over half a billion dollars on the same bad premise of PvP.

Server meshing aims to create a single persistent universe but PvP, which most will want to avoid, is fundamentally unfair because the people with the best ships, paid for with real money, will win. This is such a fundamentally bad and limiting design, it's hard to comprehend.

Imagine instead SC had defined a small core game loop and gone for a Sea of Thieves like world, both PvP and non-PvP. SoT has like 8-12 players on a server and they can PvP. Interestingly, a lot of players don't want this so they monopolize a server and agree not to PvP. Even in WoW, which has faction PvP, the players have basically voted out world PvP by concentrating a single faction on each server with very few exceptions.

But SC is doing things like server meshing when after a decade they still don't have a core game loop. I occasionally check in on the SC roadmap and progress. Not because I'm interested in playing but because I like watching a car wreck in super slow motion. Constant missed deadlines, new (incomplete) features being promised (and a few added), more promised features to fix the bad previous features and so on. It's a disaster.

32A capable wiring is much more expensive. And if we are being honest, the number of modern appliances that need more than 1800W is very small outside of the kitchen.

Class inheritance is flawed because it tries to be two things at once: a shared "surface" (public members, polymorphism, etc.) and shared implementation. An abstraction is only a surface -- this could be an interface, a function declaration, or even a data model. It almost never happens that implementation-sharing and surface-sharing completely coincide, and this is why class inheritance is falling out of favor and something I completely avoid (occasionally I will use abstract classes, but I usually regret it later). This is where "favor composition over inheritance" comes from. I'd go so far to say that because they cannot be completely divorced from implementation details, base classes cannot even be called abstractions.

So if "wrong abstractions" includes shoddy base-class shenanigans, then the statement becomes almost tautological. Of course duplication is better than class inheritance -- everything is better than class inheritance. So the real statement there is "class inheritance is actually awful", which is important to understand, but a side point to this debate.

If you don't count class inheritance as abstraction, then the tradeoff between code duplication vs. abstraction becomes much more nuanced, and that's what all this discussion is about. I certainly don't agree that ignoring class inheritance is a signal that the author is amateurish. Many complex codebases have no class inheritance at all.
If it’s any consolation, Microsoft itself has shipped production assemblies generated with bad IL (for the auto-generated bindings/interop between the Windows 10 SDKs and C#)! Code appeared fine and would run OK until you tried to either R2R or AOT a project depending on that DLL (and it was just a single entry point that was mangled, iirc).
To be clear, in the US the "instant hot" tap (when present) is separate from the main adjustable-temperature faucet. It's normally off to the side and visually distinct. It's usually much smaller and provides a limited amount of water from a pre-heated tank under the sink.
The 4.6% figure only makes sense if you think all their business involves wrongdoing and this is the only instance that got caught. If you take the penalty and divide by how much they allegedly made ($500M), you get a much worse figure of 75.4%.
> Because it seemed very irrelavent to if they were good faith researchers.

It’s not irrelevant if the author mentioned “classmates” several times to justify his viewpoint/emotions about the situation.

However, I was making 2 points in my original comment. The first was a critique about the author’s viewpoint that classmates did this to him. The second was about the intention of the author related to “good faith research”. Here’s why I did this. If you re-read the beginning of the author’s conclusion, he said this:

> Now let’s take a quick step back. (1) Getting a legal threat for our good-faith security research was incredibly stressful. (2) And the fact that it came from our classmates added insult to injury.

I added the numbers in () myself but you see there are 2 distinct ideas that the author is concluding here. Get it?

> Yet you seem comfortable calling them immoral

I never called anyone immoral or even implied it. If I thought so, then I would have just said it clearly.

I literally said that I didn’t know whether “research” was the main intention. I even said something to the affect of “whether it’s good or bad faith”.

I never placed any negative judgment on anyone. I even said “and there’s nothing wrong with having fun on a Friday night”. You seem to be misreading between the lines.

It’s interesting that you’re fixated on this but you haven’t commented on any of the other comments on this post that did call Fizz’s employees immoral. Someone even literally wrote a curse word (that starts with the letter “S”) to describe them.

If you remember, the original comment that I replied to said “Devil’s advocate”. That meant that this subthread was supposed to explore a viewpoint that others weren’t commenting as much.

If you had an issue with the original person who wrote the “Devil’s advocate” comment then you should reply to them. I only said that I “sort of” get his comment. I didn’t say I agree with everything he wrote.

RA tells Apple what software stack you're running and that it's not virtualized (genuine hardware device). Therefore, you no longer need software obfuscation because:

1. The software is now tamperproofed (server won't release content key unless the RA contains an expected hash)

2. The memory space is protected from being read from other processes, so there's no need to try and hide the processing of secrets in the code itself.

i.e. a system based on RA can be entirely transparent, open source even, and it can still work. The only secrets are the hardware keys that act as the root of trust. The software and hardware stack does itself need to be secure of course, but Apple has got pretty good at that. And btw Apple's platforms already support remote attestation:

The nuance is likely the govt contracting angle.

Charging $20 extra, to US tax payers, to support products that do not benefit US tax payers.

Additionally, these aren’t abstract users at the receiving of the practice - it’s US service members who just want their booze products to “work,” under a very tight budget environment.
