A ML language is where I'm lacking. That probably explains why most of my CS major peers are more enamored with Rust.

As long as I stick to Embedded Rust, I can use work time to learn more. I'll probably plan that between my current projects these next few months.

That seems like some wishful thinking. Chess.com might treat him no differently from any other player but I guaranteed a significant portion of the chess.com playerbase won't.
I also had a terrible experience with the link. Not only that, it's still me having to remove myself from an automated opt in! This makes zero sense!

The customary way to improve GC performance in Common Lisp is to avoid consing. Which, incidentally, is the customary way to write high performance C code too. Allocate your memory in a piece up front and arrange the data in a way that's friendly to your architecture and then do stuff. Nice thing about Common Lisp is that DISASSEMBLE makes it a fairly smooth process to check that the optimizer is actually doing what you want.

And the new SBCL release aids this approach by expanding the cases where the compiler will stack allocate.
The true end game always has been being an overseer of the technology. Sysadmins and sysops are one area that will never go away as there will always be another system to manage. It doesn't matter if that system is human, computer, or both.

Actual monetization of AI is likely to be a large hurdle. Right now lot of companies are throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks in a panic to not get left behind. The downstream business models which will generate sustainable revenue to keep AI R&D running is somewhat lacking right now. That does smell like the 2001-era internet bubble. There's probably one Google-Search-level idea out there, but I'm not sure exactly which one it is. And remember it has to not only be a good idea, but it needs to be monetizable, with a substantial moat around it.

So over the near term, 4-5 years I suspect AI hype comes back down closer to Earth again. Sure the secular trend is all up and to the right, but the secular trend of the internet was still up and to the right in late-2000 as well.

That's a euphemism. These companies "acquire technology" in the same sense that revolutionaries acquired Louis XVI's head.
Even if it's not true of all science fiction (especially the pulp traditions of American sci-fi), it is arguable that the origins of science fiction are thought experiments that exist to help think through and critique the present. A lot of influential writers have said exactly this, including Le Guin, Gibson, Vandermeer, Doctorow, and Palmer to name a few of the top of my head.

Yes, I love this way to start. The practice selling is the biggest benefit IMO. Your other points are solid.
Ahhhh yes, the classic “this time is different” screed.

VPS have been around for longer than “cloud” computing. In layman’s terms, yes cloud means someone else’s computer, but here and in other tech focused circles it usually means some kind of software defined compute services. A VPS where you login and install your stack and patch it I wouldn’t consider as cloud.

The main point I was making was figure out hosting later after figuring out the product/market fit.

No it is not. They clearly provide precise steps to grant or deny access.

Both frontend and backend development come with their own challenges. However, I believe the industry has been grappling with unnecessary complexity for at least the past decade. Take React as an example: it's a library developed by Meta, which boasts a massive team of developers. But before tools like React, and even before Backbone, there wasn't a clear distinction between frontend and backend in web development.

This division is relatively new and, in many ways, has given rise to new challenges and job roles. Gone are the days when we were all considered full-stack developers, working seamlessly across layers of a web application. In reality, web development should be viewed holistically, even though there are multiple layers to it. The final product is singular and unified.

It's possible to simplify frontend development by selecting appropriate tools. For example, a combination of Rails with Hotwire and Stimulus, or similar setups in other frameworks, can make the process more straightforward.
Of course the state should enforce the laws - if you look at the New York case someone posted in this subthread they're often already enforcing the laws. I'm not suggesting that they shouldn't.

You just quoted a random, unrelated part of the regulation. Nobody is claiming that the notice is inadequate because it lacks a description of precise steps. The notice is inadequate because it alleges that Google will use opt-out approval for purposes that are only allowed with explicit opt-in approval.
Alongside this, there are also several international traditions of sci-fi (Russian, French, Indian, Chinese) that imagined modernization in supposedly under developed countries to contrast a possible future against the very real modernization of developed neighbours.

1. No, generally speaking corporate management in the 21st century does not make decisions based on effectiveness of their product or their workforce. They make decisions based on finance centered around the upcoming year or quarter. Tesla isn't interested in making good cars. Tesla is interested in selling tax credits. Period.

2. Even if #1 isn't true in an edge case, don't care.

> Do you really find it plausible that the government would know the person's Skype username but not their name?

Yes, people communicate under pseudonyms on the internet all of the time.

Remember that not all governments have the same technological power as the major global powers... especially the most repressive ones.

> If they can compell the isp, why not Microsoft? They will obviously comply too.

MS has a limited physical footprint where they can be legally compelled to do anything. They don't operate in the world's most repressive regimes. And they do deny information requests all of the time. 25% of criminal requests were rejected by MS last year for not meeting requirements. And many of the world's most repressive regimes don't even appear on the list. Probably because they also say (emphasis mine):

> Microsoft produces data in response to valid legal requests from governmental entities in countries where Microsoft Corporation is located.

> There’s a lot of emphasis here about just adding storage, but that’s missing the fact that unnecessary indexing affects writes and reads performance also (and potentially quite significantly).

Again, for a startup or early stage company, spending developer time on read and write performance is almost certainly a waste. (Obviously if it's bad enough to be a blocker then fix it, but if it's bad enough to be a blocker then you've noticed it already).
$120-175/hr CAD for me, specializing in on prem infrastructure and DBA, clients coast to coast but mostly Ontario. The rate is more determined if I am going through a middleman (usually a MSP) vs direct rather then supply and demand.

This hasn't changed through inflation though. Those rates are the same rates for the last 10 years or so.

So after 6 years of “beta”, now it’s “alpha” and you’re impressed. I have a bridge to sell. Not running red light is possibly the simplest possible thing a self driving system should do. If it fails at that after 12 versions (which also did that), and with supposedly a new end to end AI architecture and massive amount of data to train on, that should fix all the things, I’d actually say that’s pretty bad. Alarmingly bad.

And what does it mean “video was 50 min long it only needed one intervention”? Say you ride a cab. How many times in 50 minutes you need to have intervention with the driver so they don’t try to kill you?

“Oh it’s only failing catastrophically once an hour” is not the win you think it is. It means this thing can’t be trusted alone even for a second. It fails once an hour but you don’t know WHEN EXACTLY. So you need to sweat it every moment of the drive.

Tesla self driving is literally more stressful and dangerous than just driving yourself. It’s like giving the car to a mute autistic teenager who can swerve into a biker, speed past a stop sign or go in the wrong lane direction at any point.
At some point I need to make a really misleading title for my talks or articles just to catch people like the GP that don't read the article or watch the talk and only comment based on what the title makes them assume it's about.
It's almost certainly a better for the people who are working somewhere they actually care about for more than minimum wage with performance potentially tied to income.
Bill more! That's too low imo. If you're competent you should be able to bill at least double that. More if you're more than competent.

Consider that a full time employee at 100k/year probably costs their company at least 150k yearly (and probably closer to 200) after insurance and benefits.

58/hr for 2000 yearly hours comes out to less than 120k and that company isn't paying any benefits or taking on any of the risk of an FTE. You should set your rates accordingly.

I ended up that way as a public school student. Perhaps my classmates were morons, but probably not. Just never was captivated by whatever inane camaraderie-building stunts they wanted.

This did change when I joined the marching band. The specialist instructors being barely out of high school themselves helped because the things they'd give you a gold sticker for suddenly were aligned with what my peers would want to see.
Did you read the article? It talks about the drawbacks to those.
Also useful for local dev (you can still use it locally without a SaaS backend) and it helps with interoperability. Infrastructure like Envoy and nginx can emit spans that integrate with 1st party code and other 3rd party code. OSS libraries are more likely to implement an open standard so they just plug and play and emit data for internal things they're doing (especially helpful for things like DB and HTTP)

What? I live in one of these countries (not as bad as the one I described). My hometown is very serene and peaceful, until you are of a certain race or creed, then they are extremely racist. It is ultimately a backward place with backward people. Western folks like to pretend that every place is equally good until they have to raise their daughter in one of these places.

The first step to a country's growth is the acceptance of one's place in the world. Pretty much all of the emerging countries of today at some point kinda accepted the state that they are in and decided to get out of it (Japan, China, Indonesia today)

Mind you, I classify certain states in the US as shitholes. The fact that you _need_ a gun means that it is ultimately a shithole place in my book.
> Satire of government officials is a fundamental and inviolable right of American citizens.

This is factually incorrect. eg You cannot impersonate a government official, as a prank, then claim first amendment protections against damage caused.

What you mean by "Satire" is either moving the goalpost or misunderstanding the concepts relevant to the case. Good luck with whatever.
This person will never be convinced, but for anyone else reading, Australia (and Canada, and America) uses migration to ward off a population time bomb [1] not to “keep wages low”.

I recently bought a smart TV and spent about 20 minutes unscrewing its back plate, unplugging the daughter-board where its wireless NIC and antennas were, and desoldering the ethernet port from the main board. Was super easy and the TV still works fine, just with no networking capabilities of its own (entering the wireless settings menu and trying to scan for wifi networks just immediately crashes back to the previous settings screen, which is perfect). It's effectively a dumb TV now, just like I want, and any "features" are provided by whatever system I plug into it.
This first time I played DCS in VR and crashed and blew up it made me feel queasy. The ground came hard and fast, for a moment my brain thought this was the end though my mind still knew better. I had to pause for reflection after that.

Activism is fine. Not on HN. Words are made up all the time, but "enshittification" is currently nothing more than a trendy piece of jargon that basically only exists on HN (and maybe Reddit), and is definitely not appropriate here.

That's irrelevant here. Virtually everyone would agree that the word "libtard" also refers to something, but very few would actually appreciate it being used.
Fair. Yes, people will eventually develop best practices through trial & error, and through better features/capabilities of the product/service itself. I just remain extremely cautious and pragmatic during this part of the hype cycle and zone of inflated expectations.

> Both are aiming to pacify the target society.

You know what the big secret is? Let me tell you. Everything is aiming to pacify the society.

Movies, books, TV shows, video games: obviously tittytainment. Time wasters to waste your time and energy.

Education: to produce workers who are useful for the big system.

Religions: the ultimate form of brainwashing.

Yoga/Meditation/etc: religions but instead of gods we follow some gurus, even worse.

Unemployment: makes you at the mercy of welfare, a.k.a. the government.

Getting a job: becoming a slave for evil cooperations so they can lobby the government more. Also remember to pay your tax.

Voting: makes you feel you're in control and living in a democracy while you're just choosing from two equally bad guys.

Spedning time with your family: there are people you care? Great, now if you ever riot the gov knows who to keep as hostages.

If you swing the hammmer with enough force, you can make everything a nail.

The takes in this thread are so funny. Oh no, what if they have too much money and there aren't owners siphoning it off disproportionate to their value? People might fight over it!

Author of the talk here. When I am doing conference talks to help explain abstract concepts or ideas, I typically prefer to employ a strategy called surrealist satire. This basically helps people understand where something fits into the stack by demonstrating how something fits into the mold and then by doing another completely impractical thing with that surrealist solution. The goal of this is to help people hook something into a greater set of context (due to the assumptions I made about the audience, I had to explain a bit more about the topic than I would have otherwise at say a WebAssembly conference) so that they can figure out how things that seem unrelated are actually quite related.

In terms of performance numbers though, I have quite intentionally NOT included performance benchmarks in this talk because getting stable performance information is nontrivial. I plan to write something in the future about WebAssembly vs native code as a subprocess (the differences with windows may surprise you!), but that is not a thing for today.
