There's as much useless junk in Python's standard library as there is in Java's.
the better option is to kill the document retention policy for executives, or keep it as short as legally possible. then, for reasons of corporate security, pre-emptively delete all traces of communications well before anyone subpoenas them.
"We've gotta destroy the economy to prevent the economy destroying itself!" isn't a rallying cry that is likely to garner much support.

Do you have any favored proposals for preventing "finance shenanigans"? Given the amount of money involved, I expect any government-driven reformation will be corrupted to serve private interests.
That’s bullshit when people build their lives around it. My lease doesn’t change because a company decided to RTO
Bun looks impressive here. It would be interesting to see this type of comparison with a variety of different real-world workloads.

We have lots of legal uncertainties on the model training side and we don't know what's the conclusion yet. If most of those "open source" models deem to be problematic with copyrights or whatsoever, then it might make more sense to use proprietary models for commercial use cases since many of those use cases are not really critical (e.g. replacement of stock images) but giving them lots of potential headaches with legal complications.

On the contrary, Leetcode is one of the most egalitarian ways there is for hiring applicants, because if you can pass the test, you're basically hired, at least at FAANG and adjacent. I'd hate to have employers show implicit bias through such saccharine distinctions as "personal fit."
Agreed. At what price do you think cruises internalize the externalized costs?
the left side panel kinda looked like ms teams now, lol.
Customers don't because the IRS is ridiculous, presumably on purpose.

If you sell cryptocurrency for more than you paid for it you have a capital gain. Okay, sure, if you made a million dollars then you owe taxes on a million dollars. But things like this commonly have exemptions for small transactions. If you pay for a $2 cup of coffee and had a capital gain of $0.03 for which you might owe less than one half of one cent in tax, it's obviously inefficient to require reporting for this. And it tends to even out because nobody is going to report a $0.03 capital loss either. So it makes sense to exempt transactions below some threshold. But for this they apparently don't. Which is hard to explain outside of malice.

And then people say "well nobody wants to use it."
Managing access control if there is more than one group must be… difficult, right?
Also Epic only needs to look to their closest competitor to see this is a terrible idea.

That said, the author forgets to mention one more important advantage of open source alternatives like Godot: they avoid market manipulation simply by existing, as they block monopoly. Unity wouldn't risk _future_ customers if they were not as confident in their position (Unity is king on mobile, don't forget).
Nothing canned air and a mini sledge can't fix.
no inheritance but there are interfaces to be able to provide alternate implementations. Similar to traits in Rust. If it quacks like a duck, has feathers like a duck, swims like a duck…

Go just assumes if you satisfy the interface, you’re good.
Huh. Guess I'm heterodox, then.

I mean, don't get me wrong. It's quite useful once in a while, especially when working with containers, but I don't think of it as essential.

But I'm fine with it as long as people don't overdo it.
Agreed. Java injection frameworks are opaque and accomplish what they need to with overly powerful mechanisms because of the nature of the language. You don't see that sort of nonsense in python.
Hasn't "zero manufacturer support" been the normal state of Linux since forever? It's only recently that some level of official support has emerged in limited cases.
All good, appreciate the explanation. I was goofing around imagining an intersection of the Baker Act and Red Cross volunteering, but on rereading my language was too strong. I don't ever want to come across like the language police, please don't change your verbiage on my account.

Best of luck to you and your family.
Yep, Apple Configurator 2. Been there done that with an unfixable partitioning. Eventually I learned about AC2 and a clean install solved all of my partitioning problems.
It’s a good point and an important distinction because we can be so easily fooled.

Corporate speak isn’t the speech of a human. It’s constructed PR.
To be compliant with regulations they need to keep the records even if the email is deleted from the user's mailbox
This may be one of the best videos explaining regulation, technology, and corruption.
In the US, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure require corporations to keep emails from 3-7 years depending on their content, with some emails potentially kept forever.

SOX compliance requires 7 years.
Lol. You'll be mugged for the drill before you make a dent in it. An angle grinder will slice through it like warm butter. That's what those damn bicycle thieves use.
But when we will be able to run the current models on customer level hardware, won't the models available from cloud hardware so much better we would rather pay for the cloud?
You don't need a try-with-resources, you can manually call close if you want, or has to work in a non-lexical scope.

But you often want the concurrently running threads to return some results, that try-with-resources is part of the structured concurrency that helps you with closing off a branching point, similarly to how we use while loops instead of gotos. `go` in itself corresponds to `goto` basically, with many of the same negatives.
They settle for 1.1 Billion dollars with the regulators. Publicly traded firms are by law obligated to keep a lot of business related communication.

Brutalism was designed to expose the functionality of the way everything was built. We'd been using Portland cement for a few decades at that point, but we always hid it behind facades meant to harken back to traditional architectural functions. Covering Portland cement in brickwork or arranged timber was a common way of doing that. By exposing the underlying core of the building Brutalism was meant to display that transparency would only be allowed so far as to show what a monolith the power structure who used it actually was. Brutalist architecture has few glass openings, vertically massive internal atriums, large thick columns, interior or exterior walls rising at harsh unnatural angles, and consecutive terracing without bracing, all unachievable with traditional building methods or in then-contemporary Mid-Century Modernist architecture. All of this was only possible due to the strong central structure, representative of the aforementioned "monolith" of power.

> Inference costs per user are high, at least much higher than most traditional software costs. This way, the costs are aligned with the usage.

Meh, the price if MidJourney is like 2 orders of magnitude higher than their inference costs. The pricing is based on what they can get away with.
Like Helidon Nima, Micronaut, Quarkus or recently, Spring?
Very unhappy legal department. Very unhappy owners. Big fines. Publicly traded companies have a lot of rules to follow.
We use signal at work and it is not made for it. When someone joins or leaves the company, ensuring they are added to or removed from the right groups is ripe for mistakes.

Your conjecture is correct. I should have said that utf-8 could require more memory. My native language is not English. Apologies for any incorrections.

maybe, it is just some effort for someone who coded in classic OO for last 20 years to wrap head around this new concept fast and judge if it will satisfy all/most use cases.
Yes. It's arguably one of the better attempts at cloud gaming. I've tried it, still prefer locally hosted games, but the days of cloud gaming are definitely coming soon.
I just picked up Java (via Kotlin) for the first time in four years, during which I've been doing Rails dev. I needed an AWS Lambda for zipping files into and out of S3. I banged my head against broken/unsuitable Node packages for doing so before finally giving up, since it is the lingua franca of Lambda.

I was able to rewrite and deploy the function in Kotlin in two days' time. It was easy to set up and run, and worked literally first compile and run - a benefit of static types.

Now, would I recommend it to anyone who is unfamiliar with the JVM ecosystem? That's a harder sell. But the stability of the ecosystem and a modern set of saner tools and libraries have made it much better to work in; I'd even call it pleasant.
>>Narrow fields like these are usually non-controversial.

These were just obvious examples, and you are correct that populist politicians may not primarily campaign specifically on reducing regulation, but they consistently DO mention it in campaigning and consistently do it once in office, because they're usually sponsored by moneyed/corporate interests.

>>"how many soldiers and bases worldwide do we need"..."Should we confront China/Russia or appease it?"

Yes, the populists are consistently gong for appeasement and the "why should we spend money abroad", and opting to allow (or in the 2017-21 admin, actively curry favor with) authoritarians, because populist leaders are almost always authoritarians (whether rightists or leftists), as populist leaders want the simplistic solution of "strongman leaders".

This consistently leads to far worse results within a decade or two. Short term, less is spent overseas. But then the authoritarians make gains and start creating problems that cannot be ignored, and the cost of pushing back has grown far higher. That's the problem with authoritarians; they DGAF about words of concern or condemnation. If they break international law and only get words of condemnation and slap-on-the-wrist sanctions, they read this as approval to go further. Then they do. This is exactly what happened with Putin. He bombed civilians and/or illegally "annexed" territory in Chechnya, Syria, Georgia, Crimea, Donbas, etc. and got no real pushback. So, the thought it would be OK to invade all of Ukraine. This is a rolling disaster for everyone, brought about by failure to push back in earlier administrations (including the 2009-17 admin failing to push back in Syria & Crimea).
The only thing they care about in long term is greed.
Note the absence of tax policy changes that favor manufacturing. Here are a few:

* A tax on financial transactions. This is sometimes called a "Tobin tax".
The US financial services sector has doubled in size as a fraction of the economy. It's currently around 12%. That's an overhead cost, and a big one. Could be half that.

* A tax on advertising. The tax deductiblity of advertising as a business expense should be limited. No more than a few percent of the cost of a good or service should be advertising. Domestic US advertising is almost zero sum, anyway, because Americans are spent out. All advertising does is move consumption around a bit.

* Standards for imports. If it plugs into AC power, it has to have UL certification.
No more fires from power supplies, including small electric vehicles.
Anything medical has to be sample tested after import. Criminalize willful violations.
Hold resellers (i.e. Amazon) criminally responsible.
I'd expect there's some corporate-speak maximum that happens in middle management, and upper and lower people would use it less, with the curve being flatter for more bureaucratic companies.
It’s also a status/in-group marker in corporations.

> "We've gotta destroy the economy to prevent the economy destroying itself!" isn't a rallying cry that is likely to garner much support.

That is exactly what you need to do though, blow up the dam now and release the water instead of waiting for it to build up and destroy the entire city. They do that small scale by increasing interest rates already, but sometimes you maybe need to do more.
If you had read my original comment, you would see I didn't claim it's easy to do, only that it can be done in around 200 lines. That's clearly the case.

Character set handling isn't really an issue for JavaScript as strings are always utf-16.
When a file is read into a string the runtime handles the needed conversion.

As for handling large files, I've used this with 50mb CSVs, which would need a 32bit integer to index. Is that large enough? It's not like windows notepad which can only read 64kb files.
Having a single level of inheritance (especially if it's an interface) is not a problem at all. Having deep inheritance trees can be a code smell.

The trend for big software is to charge more and more, while locking you in. Payments become more granular and gradual rather than predictable and discrete.

Are the technical requirements driving these monetization schemes or is it the other way around?
I wanted to do something similar for Greek supermarkets but I never had the time. Great to see something is available and I don’t have to rediscover the wheel.

Yeah, "financialization" is absolutely the answer and the articles' claim of lack institutional integration (or whatever) seems wrong.

You can look at how Boeing gutted it's highly skilled Pacific North West operations to move lower skilled, lower paid areas elsewhere and generalize this to a multitude of similar industries.

I'm not sure the "moving target" argument holds up to much scrutiny. Asahi has been able to re-use the UART driver from the Samsung SoCs that went into the earliest iPhones, the I2C driver from PA Semi's PowerPC chips, and the GPU reverse engineering was greatly helped by the PowerVR heritage. There's clearly a fair bit of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" in Apple's hardware design strategy. Meanwhile, on the Wintel side the past ~decade has seen a complete overhaul in how systems sleep, and CPU features like TSX and SGX and MPX have come and gone, presenting OS developers with plenty of churn to deal with.

Banks are subject to far more stringent record keeping requirements than most other companies. Microsoft is not bound by rules similar to the article you reference.

That said, there are some categories of information that Microsoft would have to retain. In particular, once you reasonably anticipate imminent litigation you have a duty to retain related information.
Inheritance is fine. It helps to avoid code duplication for logic that requires encapsulated data (private, protected fields).

The problem is what if you have a class that needs to derive behavior that's in two (or more) classes? Multi-inheritance is terrible because it becomes a nightmare of which class overrides which.

If there's a shallow level of inheritance (1-2 levels deep), then there's nothing wrong with it. Things like composition for most use cases has been common advice since forever.

What happened with java was that there was a massive movement for enterprise code that way over-complicated everything based on ideas that didn't pan out. There were all these auxiliary patterns, and ideas that people had to learn to be onboarded onto projects, and so many people poorly understood them that it led to even more spaghetti code, too many people that developed using dogma instead of common sense.
That is one of my favorite shows of all time! Heavily undderrated and not that well known
Yea, in particular for this project, they have created a bespoke templating system.

You can get the same thing with Go text/templates by adding chat function(s) as custom a helper: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/lib/templates...

As a developer of these things, I don't get why they want to put so much effort into the mundane parts rather than focusing on the interesting parts. These things are mostly just the same as any other workflow or API call: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/flow/chat/cmd... (unless you get into the python and (i.e.) start messing with the logits or token probabilities)
most of that is not really true. where are closed issues rendered struck through? It's up to the repo to lock closed issues or not, and it doesn't appear this repo did that.
Make a PR with some tests that should pass, but are instead marked skipped. That way when the rebuild comes around, there's an easy path for the rebuild to see how it's doing, see if things are at all improved.

If you care about it, you should put a test on it.
A sticking point in the Wikipedia article is beneficial ambiguity regarding Haldane's departure from UCL and the UK.[1] He was a staunch Stalinist and a Lysenkoist.[2] At the time many of his Soviet peers were executed for being "reactionary", i.e. non-ideological. Haldane was well aware and did not condemn the atrocities. His wife disputed him over this and it nearly cost their marriage.[3] Charlotte his wife is negatively portrayed.[1]

I use Siteground and it has a staging server that AFAIK hasn't been used for at least 6 years ...

Nothing at the host has any details of that, archive.org doesn't have it in their site URLs, it's not in DNS records, not in .well-known, it was a transient test years ago ... really curious, must be historic data from somewhere?
I use it for things that are not so technical so I find I get results I like with very little work. For instance after I made a print I couldn’t unsee this white splotch so I had selected it and used generative fill without a prompt to make it go away

https://mastodon.social/@UP8/110607460518784045

when I put the corrected one on the wall together with a lot of prints it was not properly centered vertically (had to center the painting + shadow not just the painting) so I had generative fill draw another row of bricks at the bottom. I’m sure they don’t look exactly like the the corresponding bricks on the real wall but they are good enough for wall art

Do you feel good about yourself, talking down on people that made a perfectly valid choice by developing software in Java?

Let's look at the alternatives you mentioned: Rust and Golang. Java compared to Golang is a much more expressive language. Java compared to Rust is a much easier language because you have a garbage collector for the majority of the cases you don't need the manual memory controls that Rust offers you.
In other words, Java is a perfectly valid alternative to both Golang and Rust with its own tradeoffs.

You try to paint a picture of Java not being cool but at the same time I see "modern" companies that are held in high esteem for their engineering prowess using Java to do incredible thing (e.g. Netflix and Google)

DI buys you maintainability.

Without DI, there's too much flexibility in how objects get constructed. If you want to add new functionality to a legacy code base, it can be difficult to track down the different integration points and slow to plumb through your dependencies. These projects can turn into spaghetti very quickly.

DI solves this with a simple recipe: define your functionality, define your dependencies, wire it up to the injector.

The pattern is useful in all OO languages, Python and C++ included.
One of the big issues with the fp javascript trend was that coding patterns which work well in languages like closure or Haskell had a kind of "let's shoehorn this into js". There was a tonne of blogspot on "how to write functional javascript" that followed this pattern of currying all the time in a language where it just doesn't result in particularly readable code. I'm glad it's falling out of fashion.

I agree about evaluate positioning 3 yrs in, assuming you’ve hit PMF.

But as long as you have PMF in a big market, there is no trough of sorrow. These two things are mutually exclusive, and if you have the sorrow, you do not have PMF.

I say that as someone who has lived both at the extremes.

Fwiw, PMF is not an end state. It’s like riding a bronco. When you have it, you may feel fear, but never sorrow.
