I think non-Indian Americans are shocked that this exists in America, and totally have no idea why this is even a thing. How can I discriminate based on something I don't understand. My Indian best friend told me he's in the warrior caste, when I asked him about the caste system, but I have no idea the hierarchy or how someone would discriminate based upon it.
nor is it long lasting.

Good point, there’s no such thing as old money, or legacy admissions, or even good old-fashioned racism in America. We left that in the 20th century!
It's not a caste in the direct sense. I mean rich people who adopted their cultural practices or married into (which would be hardly even possible in a 'true' caste system) were generally socially accepted.

Of course being Irish/Catholic/Black etc. would've disqualified you but it's not quite the same thing.

Honestly I find this claim laughable and in my view represents a weak grasp at confirmation bias from the API doomsayers. Still remember seeing discussions here a few months ago where people predicted that the API changes would lead to Reddit being flooded by obvious spam and even child pornography. Well, obviously that didn't happen and the front page of the internet is just filled with low-quality trash like it's always been.

If someone wants to prove this point, support it with data. Otherwise it feels like simple mood affiliation. The UX of the median Redditor has not changed at all.

I was a HS & college player in the 80s, back when we still used wooden rackets. Frankly I find modern tennis boring. The players mostly hang out along the baseline and there are fewer (IMHO) exciting shots.

I prefer to play with other players who haven't adopted "power supremacy". The games are simply more fun.

From "LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST" of the bill:

> Existing law, the Unruh Civil Rights Act, provides that all persons within the jurisdiction of this state are free and equal, and no matter what their sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sexual orientation, citizenship, primary language, or immigration status are entitled to the full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges, or services in all business establishments of every kind whatsoever.

https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm...

It should be obvious that caste is ancestry, and that the many incidents described are violations of the Unruh Act.

So, there's been a gross failure to enforce this long-existing law. Why? And why is no one involved asking the question?
Although I don't have all the facts, the article doesn't seem to have much bias to me. They're reporting on why some people disagree with the bill. It doesn't seem to give much leaning in either direction as to whether those people are right or wrong.
I'd guess the point is that prior to the invention of the printing press, an "author" would be financed through a patron. That patron could monetize their initial investment by either hiring people to copy a work by hand or allowing access to the book.

Once the printing press arrived the patron / publisher needed another way to monetize their initial investment as modes of reproduction became more easy, copyright became more restrictive.

Depending on your side of the copyright argument, it either allows whomever is making the initial investment (publisher, author) to be a generous patron of human creative progress ... or ... it allows the to maintain a monopoly on knowledge and be able to profit off it.

Sounds like your design would require a much larger space than I had. The whole house was 1426 sqft, including two bedrooms and bathrooms (not shown in the photos). Having the stations fold into the walls kept space available for normal living when not having a party.

That said I actually think a round table design would be less social. With monitors along the walls, you can easily turn around to socialize between games with nothing blocking you from seeing other people. With the table and monitors in the middle, I think monitors would block people from socializing across the table.

We'll see though, the new house actually features both designs in different rooms... :)
You are very mistaken.
I'm certainly not equating safety to profits, but I think that a company such as Microsoft with decades of experience distributing cryptographically verified software to a range of demanding consumers (e.g. governments) and being big enough to be able to have teams running things like their certificate authority infrastructure, is much more likely to produce secure binary distributions than some GitHub Actions and shell scripts.

I don't think your car analogy quite fits, as there are ongoing updates, and it's not like the end-user perception of regular VSCode, or backdoored VSCode, are going to be any different until someone spots the backdoor (and we can't rely on that).
It also seems to be surfaced to the conscious level. At least, I definitely can tell you what direction a smell is coming from -- and it feels like I know that because of a difference between my nostrils.

$38k, based on the "90 days using 16 A100-40G" and lambdalabs prices.

That's a lot for a hobby, but small enough that it might be running on a university machine (the TinyLlama devs provide a way to cite them and all seem to work or study at Singapore University of Technology) or could be sponsored (no indication of that now, but "people made an awesome model in our cloud" is good advertisement). Government grants or grants in general also aren't out of the question, especially for a topic with this much hype.
Discrimination can be such an umbrella issue. Anything added to that, for example ancestry, has the potential to do more harm than good. What is ancestry? How to prove it? Could a southerner born in Alabama say they were discriminated against colleagues in New York City for his southern ancestry?
Without people such as yourself I genuinely fear for our cultural history.

I'm not entirely sure what else you expect? Cooking takes a long-ass time, it is a day-long full-time affair. You can hide the real time by doing prep, outright fully preparing parts of dishes agreed of time, having multiple people or buying premade but someone is putting in those hours somewhere.
> I was left with an expertise and knowledge of a language that was now, effectively useless.

VB did that to me; the lesson I learned is to avoid[0] languages with just a single implementation. As a consequence, I'm not very interested in languages like Ruby, Go and Rust. In the old days, every language had a train of compilers/interpreters following it. Pascal, COBOL, FORTRAN, even ALGOL. I believe that in those days, building a compiler for an existing language was a pretty standard hobby project. Everyone and his dog had built one, and manufacturers bundled their own ones with the hardware.

[0] Learning is hard; I jumped from VB to PHP.
Anonymity is in the eyes of the beholder. In this case, self-hosting might make your interactions "anonymous" in the eyes of Google, Microsoft, or Meta, even if it doesn't make you anonymous to whatever platform you use to host the software.
Average return is a metric, but it's not the only one. If you really want the biggest possible CAGR and don't care at all about volatility, you won't beat a 100% stocks allocation.

Browne allocation's Sharpe ratio (0.67) is better than yours' (0.60). They serve different purposes and cater to different investors.

I personally wouldn't use Browne's because I'm still young(ish) and have a very, very stable income and will get a pension from my government, so I can stomach the volatility and better take the best average return. But if I were a freelance of some sort in my late fifties or older, I'd get closer to Browne's allocation.
I kinda find this a weird comment... you say productivity is way better than React but then go on to say you still sometimes need to resort to the Discord forum to figure out what is going on (!)

To be fair, React used to have a documentation problem as well, but at this point I think anything and everything under the sun is documented excruciatingly well.

Of course people will comment I'm shilling React, but, reading the top comment, its kind of like trying to shill Svelte but immediately coming up short.

Rails itself is only 19 years old. 15 years is too long to talk about what will or won’t exist with anything like a concrete prediction. At best you can say that legacy systems will still be around. If you’re a hobbyist and you tinker with your personal site or app once every couple of years and you want it to last indefinitely, just make it vanilla JS. For everyone else, it’s not a big deal to do a rewrite every five years as part of the normal maintenance cycle.
QTVR was the shit at the time. Was ahead of its time.
Honestly, is javascript actually simple? I find it to be a really wacky language that I now understand but would never say it has simplicity.
This is mainly a complaint about over abstraction and intrinsic complexity.

Tools like terraform offer simple modules to make your devops life easy.

But simple looking modules abstract a complex thing by hiding details. Details which are critical once your infrastructure reaches a critical complexity threshold.

At this point the tool is a burden. It is actively getting in your way to understand and get at the the actual infrastructure you are maintaining.

This is why imo alternative like CDK got popular. It doesn’t try to over abstract for you. It just gives you an api you write custom code over. The complexity of your code goes up with the intrinsic complex of the infrastructure.
It's like (speaking) languages really. The good ones are ones that have always been there and people have just sort of accepted into the mainstream (like English). Don't invent your own language. If you can do it in an existing language, don't invent your own.

SQL and CSS selectors fit the bill. Everyone has just kind of accepted them now. It's not an excuse to try creating new languages for every new thing, it's an uphill task.
You're suggesting that it was just a complete coincidence that the antagonist was invited to give the talk. If you're going to line up facts, don't omit the most relevant one.
I think 5 seconds for an 8bit binary add seems fair, so 1/12th instruction per second per 'girl', so 1000 * 1/12 = 83.33 instructions per kilo-girl per second.

If we aren't doing 'instructions' and can get rid of binary and do decimal adds, say its 1/s, so 1k-g is 1000 'operations' per second.

Yes. I worked in government sales (think wear a suit, meet with people at their office) for CompUSA in Indianapolis, Indiana. I had to come in the night of the release and work on the retail floor (the first, last and only time I worked on the retail floor). We had a DJ, free bunny suit dolls from Intel, and a line that went half-way around the parking lot. The best part is all the employees got a free "Window95 w/Plus pack" and a bonus for working that night. It was a lot of fun, and Windows95 was that big of a deal, even in Indiana.
Lets not forget that russia uses drones and missiles for attacking grain terminals in ports, civilian infrastructure, restaurants, maternity wards and drama theathers where the word "children" is written so big that it could be seen from space.

The story and the connection to bank accounts don't sound logical at all. It's not like the husbands wouldn't know that the money is there somewhere. If a random person can do to another person a "classical robbery held at knifepoint or gunpoint and taken to an atm and being robbed or being blackmailed to actually do instant money transfer online", why wouldn't husbands catch on to this? The women could, in theory, have more than one bank account and hide how much they earn and save by keeping a lower balance in the account known to the husband. But the same could also be done with physical cash by handing a chunk of it to a trusted person (for expenses and savings) and keeping a smaller amount at home to be snatched.

With one or more bank accounts, the woman must now keep her phone safe and inaccessible from the husband too. Or she must be very quick and diligent in deleting all the SMSes sent by banks for all kinds of transactions. This adds more hassles than saving cash with someone else.

In all the cases of alcoholism and men snatching money from the women/household without any other care, it's violence that keeps that relationship and "contract" alive. That violence isn't going to disappear just because physical cash is replaced by a bank account.

In summary, I don't buy the conclusion you've quickly jumped to.

As soon as the programming landscape becomes too large.. PLT cannot address every crowd on the distribution. I guess he means that type theory is too far away from most people duties.
it's kind of a catch-22, right? SQL is declarative. And while people seem to love declarative DSLs, they are generally really only awesome on the happy path. For SQL, sometimes, it can be incredibly obtuse when something goes horribly wrong (in terms of query speed) -- even with great tools like EXPLAIN. And a query that is fast on one SQL might not be so fast on another SQL.

For other declarative DSLs, I've definitely bashed my head against the wall and gotten a few gray hairs over "why the f* doesn't this goddamn thing that should work work". Sometimes it's because I'm not grokking how the platform works. Sometimes it's a bug, or unimplemented feature.

I suspect the reason why people don't absolutely abhor SQL is that the biggest players (MySQL, Postgres, Sqlite) have actually done a reasonably good job of making the 98% paths very good and 90% of the rest "good enough".
No, and that's one of the things that's really nice, at least for our team: we really want our web designers to own the HTML/CSS from start to finish. If you use something like React (i.e. where there is code that emits chunks of HTML elements), you sometimes either force the designer to learn React or the designer no longer owns the markup once it gets handed off to a dev. For us at least, that was a maintenance nightmare and hindered our ability to add new features or freshen up the layout.

Svelte combines a component's HTML, Javascript, and styles into a .svelte file, so it all lives in one place, but each of those 3 things lives in their own section. The HTML looks very close to what it looks like when it was originally created by the designer, with a few key changes such as markers conditional blocks or loops and additional element attributes to set up data and event bindings. Explaining these to a web designer takes about 10 minutes and they are fine with it, especially if they've ever seen a templating language before.

This setup also leads to one of two really good workflows between dev and design; we end up using both of them and choose one based on the specific scenario. In the first, the designer goes from visual design all the way to valid HTML/CSS, and then hands it off to a dev to "wire it up" (make it functional). In the second, a dev will rough in the HTML and make it functional but hideous looking, and then hand it off to the designer to de-uglify it. In both cases, the dev owns the behavior and the designer owns styling/layout/etc. from then on, and it's rare for there to be any conflicts. YMMV of course, but it's been fantastic for us. :)

CDK for Prolog sounds sick and disgusting. I LIKE IT!

I'm a little more familiar with DSLs w/ Lisp, but I built a simple make replacement with Prolog a few decades ago and it turned out to be useful. Replacing CloudFormation or TerraForm with a Prolog based DSL seems like it could be a win. I like Prolog much more than Pulimi in this role as you can succinctly and unambiguously declare dependency relations.

but there are literally libraries on top of libraries to immediately provide in react what svelte might provide "out of the box". the best thing too is that these hooks are all open source - so you can either install a package directly, or pick and choose and install whatever hook you need.

idk, i'm dying on the hill that react is unopinionated for a reason, i think it can be morphed and molded to so many use cases
