Maybe, maybe not.

If all three threads are spending most of their time doing pointer chasing (dependent memory loads) then not really: each core has bandwidth to do more than one memory load at a time, so there's not resource contention and each SMT can make progress in turn on the shared core.

If all three threads are well pipelined math heavy computation, then yes, the core running two threads has to split its adders among the two threads and the core running a single thread doesn't.

If it's a mix of workloads, sometimes you get lucky and the two threads don't contend much and you get a nice throughput increase, and sometimes you get unlucky and they do contend but throughput is about the same. If you get really unlucky, the two threads running causes the working set (memory or instructions) to grow beyond the cache and you get a reduction in throughput.

But it really depends on your workloads.

C# calls the first one "nullable reference types." When that build option is enabled, all types are non-nullable by default, and you can make them optionally nullable by declaring them like "MyClass? cls = null;"

The compiler will ensure you check for null before de-referencing a nullable type.

I was working on a IT consolidation project in a remote country branch, replacing the old systems with those of the global IT infrastructure and a new local server managed by the global IT team. When I finished my work I was standing in the small servers room with the local IT admin, he said something that disclosed he felt there was nothing important for him to do anymore. The move was the right path for the business. I felt terrible.

On top of that, I'm not convinced it means what they think it means.

To me, having used LinkedIn quite heavily, the people I have 25 mutual "friends" or more with are almost all "super connectors" that spam huge numbers of connection requests (and I, like many others on LinkedIn, accept a lot of connections from people I don't know, "just in case" it leads somewhere).

And so they are frequently the weakest ties of all.

I'm not convinced you can measure "weak" vs "strong" ties on LinkedIn by number of connections, because so much tends to depend on circumstances. E.g. is there a culture for using LinkedIn in your job, or does your boss look at it with fear? (I had a manager once who kept an eye on which recruiters people connected to...) Was there an exodus that triggered people to connect to huddle together? Are the people you care about actually active on LinkedIn?

Was your previous company big? E.g. I have many connections from big past employers that I've never spoken to. They're not strong ties, and certainly not stronger than the persons I have only a couple of shared connections to because they're far away and the company we worked together at was tiny, but whom I've hired twice and spoken to many times over many years.
That is very rare, you should consider yourself lucky. I work for a 100,000+ person software company and my [health + dental + HSA] is over $10k to cover my family of 4.

Often something in life needs doing for a good reason, and there's not really much to logically parse.

But I still have automatically jumped into logically dissecting the problem and looking for edge cases and mulling over the logic of the problem. And trying to get the basic problem, to find the perfect solution. Needlessly.

Stepping down a gear to just doing things because there's a reason for it has been helpful. Letting the logic and rhetoric part my mind relax / let go / go blank helps.

It feels like I'm not doing the random chore correctly (for like a split second), but it's better to just chill on a little faith than spin mental gears pointlessly.

I'm so reminded of Carl Icahn's story of firing an entire 9 story building full of people and not hearing a single complaint about it from anyone.

Everyone loves to tell you how critical they are. They even feel it to be true, but companies lay important people off all the time and the world goes on. People shouldn't be so invested in their jobs to define their value.
Yes. Even 64 bits is too many, really: at 6 bits per human-recognizable token, it's more than 10 tokens, which is outside the range of what almost any human can keep in their working memory. You can't even hold it in your head long enough to type it in a different window. 128 bits is completely beyond that; when confronted with 128-bits like a UUID, people just give up. Seriously, try actually typing in a UUID sometime. Even with the grouping it's incredibly difficult. Between 64-bits and 128-bits you discover that you absolutely need an automated way to transmit the data, and then how do you get it to that airgapped computer?

not everything is a team effort, and the desire espoused all over this thread for an equivalency clearly demonstrates that there is a 'market' there.

when some small developer is making a silly one-off app for a mom&pop local store to facilitate a one-off kind of task they aren't interested in handing off work and splitting meager profits. not every company has the whole "front-end/back-end/devops/ux/design/management" paradigm going on.

the reality is that microsoft , a fairly litigious group of people, abandoned a concept for their own reasons; and the rest of the market doesn't exactly know where they can step in that minefield of offering equivalent features to a piece of software that is still on life support by a very very large/valuable/litigious company.

Billing for thinking - in my experience this is how some of the best people work. But you have to be careful in management conversations around it. :)
The ufos have to come from somewhere, right?
This is just not good reasoning. Just because some things have been mechanistically explained in the past 50 years doesn't mean that any arbitrary condition will eventually be non-somatically explained. In fact, the argument (vacuous as it is) could go the other way - anything that has left after we've shrunk the pool so considerably is considerably more likely to not have a non-somatic mechanistic explanation than anything in the original pool.

And FWIW, CBT is effective for IBS. But with the gut-brain connection, we really are pushing up against the bounds of mind-body dualism with stuff like this.
One use that personally springs to mind, is if this technology is developed enough, SWAT/Rescue teams could use this to find where people are inside buildings. No need for letter-reading precision, just good enough to be easily deployable on-site and work well enough to find where people/bodies (big masses of water?) roughly are.
You also don't know who created the paint or what their secret formula is in traditional art.

Drawing your art in Photoshop is clearly authorship. You are manipulating each pixel from scratch to be how you want it. There may be algorithms between your mouse clicks and the final product, but you as the author still have complete control of the whole art. You can tweak each pixel until its exactly how you want.

Asking an LLM for a picture of a duck is clearly not authorship. You did not create any pixels in that image, the LLM did. You just asked for it. Its no different than googling for a picture of a duck and claiming what you find because you engineered the google search query.

There is a lot of murkiness in between, where you take assets from an LLM and use them in your own creation. I think having to disclaim the assets which were not created by you is a very reasonable solution.
> The storage is expandable externally

I have tried a variety of methods of expanding the storage. I bought an M1 system with this very thought.

None of the USB storage devices I tried worked well. MacOS drops every device I tried periodically. Sometimes it would go as long as a week, but I'd have to yank it and plug it back in for it to continue to work. Very unreliable for a permanent storage augmentation.

NFS doesn't work, MacOS issues. Samba has been the most reliable network storage drive method, but it tends to be slow on my middling servers - and I really tried to optimize it.

If you really want to do this, I suggest trying the thunderbolt route.
To say that the police will protect you is not accurate. The police are a preventative institution. They try to maintain order and reduce the incidence of crimes and act as a deterrent for those who would otherwise commit a crime.
But they aren't a condom around violence. If somebody wants to hurt you, they can, and you're mostly on your own. They will only be brought in to investigate the case later, and maybe catch the perpetrator.
It is kind of funny how we Europeans are brought up with this illusion of safety, believing that the police are some kind of superhero characters that will spring to action the second before we get knifed or shot.
Honestly this is one of those events where billions could possibly die.

Green revolution. The level of food we need requires nitrogen. This is broken down by natural gas into fertilizer and requires immense amount of energy and transportation. When the grid gets knocked out, you're on a countdown till you run out of gas/petrol. If you don't get enough power back up before this happens you're running into a game over situation. Once fuel runs low and food runs out, people will start killing each other in massive amounts to deal with the resource constrained world they live in. Once enough electrical engineers die then the system doesn't come back up.
> with reactive web tech, typescript

I very much doubt. Actually reactive frameworks such as react and languages that transpile in other languages such as trypescript are the reason they couldn't. These overcomplicated, seemingly well architected, tools are in fact just a fractal of poor design.
The "HTTP" format proposed in the article is the same we use with Hurl [1], an Open Source HTTP CLI based on plain text.

POST http://httpbingo.org/anything/chat
content-type: application/json

{
"message": "Hello!"
}

We extend it a bit to add checks on response, and add request chaining, but it's basically HTTP 1.x as this article shows it. A lot of others tools have the same idea, with minor differences:

- Hurl (I'm one of the maintainer) https://hurl.dev

- HTTP Client https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/http-client-in-product-c...

- httpYac https://httpyac.github.io

- restclient.el https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el

- REST Client https://github.com/Huachao/vscode-restclient

- verb https://github.com/federicotdn/verb

And many more...

Worth noting, other tools have taken the YAML route (like Step CI https://stepci.com), JavaScript (k6 https://k6.io/docs/using-k6/http-requests/)...
I'm biased of course, I've a tiny preference for the simple plain text format.

And of course, there are also GUI application (Postman, Insomnia, RecipeUI amon others)

Pre-face: I write a lot of VBA

VBA is kind of the result of people only - ONLY - wanting to use Excel for everything. I work with those people. They have mastered excel, but have little to zero interest in learning anything else, and would rather see the world be built around excel.

So you (like me) get tasked with building applications and forms in VBA.

I was STOKED when MS announced Python for excel, but alas, turned out to not be what I (and many other) wanted.

What's the medicine? Dunno, hire analysts that are more open to using other tools . Don't get me wrong, I love using excel for many tasks - but damnit, it's not the only tool.

If biology based computers are so impractical, then parent and you are correct. Nvidia will hold a big market share for a decade at least, probably more.

I have a different opinion. Cells connected to silicon, even if they are short-lived compared to pure metal to some weeks maybe, the cost may easily outweigh the downsides.

Think about headsets for V.R. for a minute. Headsets which overheat, have fans on them, and are heavy are a big problem for carrying them around for hours. What's the alternative? A cord connected to a PC. That's very cumbersome as well.
Both of the Darin Morgan-penned episodes were good (The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat, despite some on-the-nose politics, excellently recontextualizes a show about about conspiracies in the age of social media; namely that "the truth" doesn't matter at all).

> And now you have a "string pointer" which is distinct from a "data pointer". You can't allocate a heap block and "put a string in it" because the special thing at the start needs to go with the pointer and not the data in the block.

The second sentence doesn't follow from the first one.

struct string {
char (*ptr)[static len];
size_t len;
};

struct string new_copy = { .ptr = malloc(100), .len = 100; };
new_copy = strcpy(new_copy, "some other string"); // string literal is a syntactic sugar for statically allocated 'struct string' with 'ptr' set to an unnamed, statically allocated char[] buffer inside it, and proper 'len' field.

struct string strcpy(struct string dest, struct string src) {
struct string result = { .ptr = dest.ptr, .len = min(dest.len, src.len) };
memcpy(result.ptr, src.ptr, result.len);
return result;
}

Or you can do

struct string *new_copy = malloc(100 + sizeof(struct string));
new_copy->ptr = (char*)(new_copy + 1);
new_copy->len = 100;

if you really want to. Just don't pass naked "char*" around, that thing has no obvious extent.
A friend got me an HF upconverter and better RTLSDR dongle, and we were able to receive signals at 0.1 µV, which is pretty much as good as it gets, there's always about that much noise from the universe. The 8bit limitation generally isn't a huge issue, unless there are very strong local signals in the same capture bandwidth, in which case they'll likely fall well below the quantization limit.

You're taking 2,000,000 samples and down sampling by a factor of at least 40 in most cases, which gets you 5 more bits, before demodulating it.

Bear in mind that there are very stiff penalties for transmitting without a license, up to a year in prison and $10,000, for each offense. The FCC doesn't take kindly to pirate radio.
What about a QR code that guests can scan to log into your WiFi without typing an explicit password.
Parked cars don’t impact traffic. The major difference is presumably the size of parking lots devoted to charging vs pumps, but ant home/work/etc charging offsets quite a bit.

On longer trips the pay/pump/bathroom/grab a soda/hit the road cycle is probably 15 minutes. I expect many businesses focusing on capturing revenue from the captive audience of people waiting 20-30 minutes for their cars to charge.

However, this goes away if we end up with in road charging.
Yeah, "should", as in "Apple should invest millions of dollars in a product that (almost) nobody uses or cares about". Tweeting is easy, isn't it?
But: absence of evidence is not necessarily evidence of absence. The fact that we still haven't found convincing evidence (with the caveat that 'millions of people complain about certain symptoms' in my book counts as overwhelming evidence) doesn't mean that such a mechanism doesn't exist. It may merely mean that we are looking in the wrong places, may not be looking in the right way and in general still have a poor understanding of how our bodies really work.

GBS for instance:

https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/guillain-ba...

Is linked to post viral or post bacterial infections, and even though here too there is a lack of complete understanding at least the symptoms are so clear (up to complete paralysis) that denying it seems pointless. It's also super rare, so there is no incentive to deny it.

But if COVID ends up putting a sizeable percentage of the workforce out of action that may well have serious implications for how we deal with chronic disease and post viral infections. Incidentally: this is one of the possible futures that various experts warned about during the early days of the pandemic, that it would be a decade or more before we would fully understand the impact and that by assuming the post infection consequences would be mild that we may have made a grave mistake.

Fortunately some of the more outrageous possibilities have so far not surfaced, this is one that we can deal with.
Of course it shouldn't get obsessive, but i let my brain do it's thing in that context.
Meditation sounds like a good solution. I suggest Ten Percent Happier. The CEO at my last company recc'ed it to me and I've found it to be quite good. It's a paid subscription, though.

Outside of that, I engage with flow arts (specifically poi spinning) to get out of my head. The reason it works for me is because the moves require an absurd amount of bodily concentration which forces my brain to disengage. Later, as a trick becomes rote and requires less physical concentration, I find that the hours I spent practicing resulted in habituation wherein I drop out of my "thinking mind" whenever I pick up my props - even if the tricks I'm doing are easy enough.

"People don't really have confidence in a cryptocurrency whose value changes from one moment to the next, and... people prefer to use hard cash," economist Julia Martinez told AFP.

Is this true? Do people really think that because the numbers on their bills can't change, their value is constant? Especially in South American, I would think people know better than to trust Bitcoin OR cash. Maybe US Dollars (relative to local currencies) seem stable, though.

What made VB6 super-productive and quick to get up and running also made it terrible for long-term maintenance, because it hid too much of the details.

Then there were language warts like set versus let (strong vs weak pointers), for example, which was way above the paygrade of the average VB6 coders; and having to rely on the Win32 API anyway in order to start doing actual work and work around all of its limitaitons.

One thing VB6 did do right was forcing interface-based inheritance: Composition over class inheritance was seen as a weakness back then but it was proven as the right concept.

This is just my opinion!

On the contrary!

.NET has been cross-platform for years now and runs fine in Linux, Windows and macOS.

Visual Studio for Mac was a legacy piece of software and was promptly replaced by either Jetbrains Rider or VSCode + Microsoft's C# Dev Kit.

If anything, this transition will foster C# in macOS since newbie devs wont stumble upon by accident on the horrible experience that the legacy IDE had to offer.
I wouldn't blame folks wanting to work on fast takeoff AI with no human alignment concerns. Heads, the world ends because you've bootstrapped something unsympathetic and more powerful than humanity.
