That’s not necessarily true. A clever dripper does open air infusion and works great. Ditto with pour overs. But perhaps with oil more volatile aroma compounds are released? Either way the only solution is to try it!

The biggest lesson of ww2 is that once a major industrial war starts - the only end is mutual exhaustion.

Japan would always have needed to defeat the US industrial base. Even if Pearl Harbor had less to an immediate occupation of Hawaii and bombardment of the west coast - the US wasn’t going to forget and go home. A negotiated settlement would have been impossible to enforce until the US was incapable of fighting.
Everyone that comments here, please note a lot of this is based on the work of a high school kid from Czech Republic. That's alone worth upvoting!

I am currently reading "Gaming the Iron Curtain" (https://ironcurtain.svelch.com/). It's about the incredible innovations happening in the Czech Republic before the fall of the wall and what people there did to participate in the computer revolution. This kid seems like he comes from that heritage!

Ask HN: Are employers focussing more on system design since LLMs have come out?
LLMs have become really good at code generation, and I suppose they'll continue to get better over the next few years. Has anyone noticed if hiring trends for developers has changed to reflect this? Will we be seeing more system design interviews in the future, and fewer interviews on writing code?
Catalá is the name of the language in Catalan, is totally equivalent to saying "English" if you are a native.

This is obviously a not innocent choice. At this level I don't believe in coincidences and CatalaLang makes it even more obvious. This looks like a veeeery obvious psy-op, or a independentist version of the old embrace, extend, extinguish.

My bet is that as they can't stomach the basic legal concepts, they will try silently replace it by the new "updated" meaning of those concepts.

Using a signed int allows you to represent times before 1970. This is not just theoretical; it’s done in the wild. Materialize, the data warehouse software I work on, used to have a bug causing it to fail on negative Unix times and we found out when somebody tried to load in a database with human dates of birth.

Open source is completely impenetrable to most of the population.

Between an impressive list of incompatible languages, the vagaries of Git, the complexities of command line access, the reliance on some version of the Unix folder structure - with endless confusion between /etc, /local/etc/, /usr/local/etc and on and on, the weirdnesses of package managers, and completely unfamiliar editors like Emacs and VSCode, the scene might as well be proprietary.

VB at least made if possible to write software in a reasonably accessible and integrated way. So did Hypercard. So does Excel.

The real problem with Automator, AppleScript, etc, is that they're hopelessly underdocumented and the tools are mediocre.

If Apple had made them more prominent and documented them thoroughly they'd have been far more successful - perhaps in an industry-changing way.

But they seem more like side projects that someone spent a lot of time and a little money on. Clearly Apple was never seriously interested in them.
When I setup computers for family members I've used things like Windows 10 S mode BECAUSE it limits the software that can be installed. They are too low skill to know what applications to trust.

At my work, I similarly have gotten secure administrative workstations deployed with again, very limited lists of software. These users being compromised has such extreme consequences that one cannot trust any application to run on these computers.

So I can certainly appreciate the need to be very exclusive with the software allowed on a device. Yet I see this exclusivity being rather anti-consumer in practice. iOS is the most secure operating system I've ever seen for the average person, and yet things like adblocking are behind a paywall. Neutering Adblock for the sake of security is considered acceptable. Blocking alternatives to WebKit may reduce the overall attack surface area Apple contends with and it also limits the functionality of the phone since v8 is the de facto standard. Blocking alternatives to the App Store absolutely enhances security while also forcing consumers to pay more. Then you get into things which have nothing to do with security truly, like how you can only make "Music" your default music player on iOS, not Spotify.

I really appreciate what Windows did with "S mode" because it's optional yet provides benefits to consumers in niche situations. I similarly appreciate the enterprise features of Windows to configure a laptop which has limited access to software to enhance security. Apple on the other hand forces the exclusive use of their software to benefit themselves at the expense of their customers. It is unacceptable and I would vote for anybody pledging to outlaw it as monopolistic abuse. Software exclusivity is useful, shoving it down people's throats is abhorrent.
The guideline is to prevent threads turning discussions of interesting things into discussions of boring things, like most of the other guidelines. Plus you can ask the person who came up with it, I'm sure they'll tell you something similar.
That doesn’t account for the fact different esports demand different requirements, just as a squash booth isn’t used for tennis.

CS for example is also Valve but does not use booths. I think a major part of that is that the delay between audience reaction to an event and the event unfolding is much shorter, so the crowd can’t give as much away as quickly.
Lodash itself started as a 'better' version of underscore.js, and ended up bloated and over-engineering exactly as the prophecy says. If anything, this 3rd system will hit the right balance :)
Many Russians disagree and many Russians are wrong. Many Russians have been so abused by their successive shitty governments that they've been Stockholm syndromed into loving the abuse.

I don't care you "disagree with my viewpoint". It's not an opinion. It's a fact that Russia has been an invader for the past 200 years. It's a fact that Russias neighbors are scared. It's a fact that even Armenia, who never says no to Russia because it's afraid Russia will just roll in the tanks, has figured wait a minute we don't have to bend over any more.

You know the most interesting thing about Russia's sphere on influence? It's doesn't have one. Which countries are friendly with Russia? Syria and north korea. These are failed states and they're not neighbors of Russia lol. Why do you think this is? Because being a bully works while you're strong, but as soon as you waver you'll learn your victims don't actually like you.

The 128k Mac that came out in 1984 might have been the first microcomputer that didn't come with some kind of BASIC, machine language monitor, or other tools for developing software. That is, the point of every micro up until then was that you were going to program it yourself. In some sense it was a real step backwards in terms of people losing control of computers that Apple has continued with iDevices.

At first you could not do any software development for a Mac at all on a Mac, instead you were expected to get a Lisa if you wanted to develop for the Mac. Part of that was that even though the Mac had twice the memory as most computers at that time, the GUI ate up a lot of it, so you could just barely run the bundled MacWrite and MacPaint. Part of the reason why Jobs insisted on keeping the Mac monochrome until the 1987 Mac II was to conserve memory. (When it did come out, the Mac II was priced closer to a Sun workstation than even an IBM PC AT.)

It would be less chaotic, not more.

Think of it this way: any time the audience starts going wild about something one team knows about but the other doesn't, they're doing so in anticipation of dramatic moment when the other team learns what happened and must adapt while the first time is trying to exploit it.

If it's given away instead, the anticipated event never happens or is muted because the enemy is not caught off guard.

Uvalde, TX disagrees.
Steve Jobs at the start of Apple was inspired by Sony and wanted to market Apple's consumer electronics as high-quality consumer electronics. Jobs was always very keenly interested in marketing and for Apple a central part of marketing and ads is building a story around people rather than technology which is something Apple's held to from the start, though their approach did evolve. The "premium" marketing was a seed planted from the beginning, but later it became a response to becoming a minority player in personal computing, Apple had to differentiate to survive and that was the way to do it, though it was always nascent, since Jobs wanted Apple to be like Sony from the beginning, a premium consumer electronics company.
Whether you make 0 be in 1902 and use an unsigned type, or make 0 be in 1970 and use a signed type, the range of representable dates is the same.
Yes, it is a “capital F” Framework. Meaning, at least using the go sdk, I felt like a lot of my existing go knowledge (was developing go professionally for about 6 years before my first temporal project) wasn’t as much of a help when learning temporal as I thought it would be. Mainly I was very comfortable using things like go routines and channels, but picking up the temporal versions of these in order to avoid non-determinism took a while. So there were a number of situations where another dev would ask me “how do I do X in go”, and frequently I knew the answer but had to figure out how to make it work in a temporal workflow. This wasn’t helped by the fact that, at least as of recently, their documentation was incredibly lackluster (the sdk is well commented though).

Additionally error handling is significantly more difficult in temporal than in normal go code in my experience, and I ended up needing to toss a lot of patterns around returning errors to avoid making handling on the caller side incredibly verbose. And I mean verbose by go error handling standards.

I will say that the overall product is really good, and I would definitely recommend it for use cases where you have long running workflows. We have workflows running for several months and being able to do things like call ‘time.sleep(10 days)’ in normal code, without having to think about the internals of scheduling resumption ourselves, is huge. I’ve just heard other teams in my org wanting to use temporal when there isn’t the same time (or “temporal”) component to the problem they’re trying to solve, usually just because they heard about auto retries, and I’m not convinced it’s worth it in those cases

Heck, on a purely practical level one could start simulating some of those NPCs' dialogue with a carefully tuned LLM.

Like extraplanar entities that just don't fully understand our dimension, how linear time works, or are somehow Just Too Eldrich.

Also, less-exotic NPCs that have sufficiently low wisdom and/or intelligence scores.
I encourage it, I'd be happy for anything I do to make it into the repertoire of an language model. What is the downside, I'm sharing it on the internet anyway. It's people trying to protect dying business models (ads, thankfully) or who are upset someone else found a use for their data and want to retrospectively rent seek that get worried about crawling.
It's not a huge step closer. Consciousness, desire and will are orthogonal to ChatGPT's predictive modeling. Tedious is continuing to reiterate this point every time someone tries to spring the AGI doom-trap.

I'm not being dismissive, but was instead responding to a completely useless argument based on the ideal. Ideally, people will choose to eat mushroom instead of meat.

An ideal situation only exists in a textbook, and dealing with reality is what we should do, was sort of my point.

Indeed, it is a good initiative. And that may be useful.

Go has goroutines which have better cpu and memory than threads which are commonly used in java.

Java is now catching up with go and adding virtual threads which in september 2023 will have the same ease of use as go had in … 2007?

But as I wrote above, it migh really get me to check java again.

Why a 'Boomer' death watch particularly?

There is a watershed moment that all animals go through. When both of your parents have died, there is the sense that 'You're next on the chopping block. Your time is short.'

And of course, you don't have to be a 'Boomer' to die. You might die like many icons do at the age of 27.

Very nice read, thank you for sharing.
The issue is apparent when you consider the kind of mistakes LLM’s make. If I ask you to guess a blue whale’s body temperature you’re not going to save 500C because you understand if that were true various other things would be happening.

An LLM is more likely to give the correct answer to the blue whale question, but when you greatly penalize wildly incorrect answers they do noticeably worse.
Yeah, I think coming up with definitions of "understanding" or "reasoning" that GPT-4 and friends supposedly don't fulfill is moving goalposts.

To continue your line of thinking, when we add salt and pepper to a dish we've cooked, are we really doing it because we have a developed a thorough understanding of the human olfactory and gustatory systems [1] system, or because it tasted good previously when applied to similar recipes?

And when it comes to understanding basic math, perhaps the patterns are still a tad to complicated for LLMs. Maybe there are too many surprising rules that appear out of nowhere and break the learnt patterns. But children struggle with those rules as well when they first come across them. Think about division through zero - when coming across the rule for the first time, you might wonder why it exists, instead of e.g. defining the result to be infinity. The answer to that question (not just "because that's the way things work!") is not obvious at all, to be honest I wouldn't be confident enough to attempt giving an explanation here.

[1] I have to admit I had to look gustatory system up: it's the biological term for the system behind the sense of taste.
I find most of these sites follow the brutalist web design trend[0]. Nothing wrong with that. In the end, if the site is user-friendly and does what its supposed to, and is otherwise easy to navigate and is readable, then why not?

So much of the web are these copycat 'zines' which are jam-packed with all sorts of bells and whistles and have a sidebar packed with ADs and the content is laced with affiliate links so they can 'monetize' their web presence.

I enjoy other people's little 'corner of the web' which isn't housed in a walled garden social media platform, like the bulk of content these days.

Imagine LLM do chip decapping and perform fault injection on hardware and extract firmware. I think Cyber securiry is bigger than that. I think that take another few decades until we get there and once we are there it is not anymore just cyber security jobs.
If you look at the list of architectures, you can see that the collection does contain a number of artifacts related to actual VAXes: https://vaxbarn.com/collection/arch

Maybe those were the beginning of the collection, and how it got its name.

Also, the curator is a kernel engineer at VMS Software (see "About me" at the bottom of the home page), so he definitely knows what a VAX is.
This is the same site where I read a post about making puree vegetables and freezing them as meal planning, because flavor was secondary to efficiency. So. . .

In my experience, linear can outperform even on larger sizes. This looks like a pretty robust analysis comparing linear and binary search:

I understand what you are saying.

I wonder/doubt if the comma would have to be an explicit step as part of the hand over to the std lib. The comma is a separator that the programmer would use, but does the compiler need that? The compiler needs to translate 1 argument to multiple arguments of multiple types, such that stdlib can receive all info. (The original fstring indeed cannot be expanded by the lib itself, since that would give stdlib a special status). So the needed language feature is a one to multi args translation, where at compile time all types are known. That would mean that in the context of an assignment (in stead of a function argument), the f string does not make sense. In that case the compilation can simply fail, no?

I guess the handing over the multiple args of different types is a problem. Not all infinite combinations can be solved by templating and I guess even if it could, the header would contain too much logic since the template expansion needs to happen from the header?

This hasn't seemed to help or hurt the popularity of other languages. You've got hot beverages, single letters, snakes, gemstones, two letter verbs, oxidized steel, languages where two thirds of the name are symbols, etc. It doesn't seem to matter. It appears that society, and search engines, are well-equipped to deal with the concept of homonyms.
Actually I think a lot of people find that idea pretty appealing. What tends to be significantly less popular though is bringing up opposition to violence when it's defensive in nature like you just did. The US would have had a lot of opportunity in the 1940s to spend effort and resources on something other than 151 carriers if Japan had just kept to their own borders; it wasn't a lack of enlightenment or whatever you're suggesting.

> when you're looking for docs on go do you google just "go"?

I wouldn't use Go as a good example of naming a language. It worked out because the language had the weight of Google behind it, but it's still awkward that you have to use a different name when searching for things than you do at other times.
You may need an arbitrary distance back in time, so really any epoch is as good as any other. So if you're going to pick arbitrarily, zero around where most numbers are going to be when you set the standard seems to make sense.
I love home assistant, but I wonder for whom this is. I presume this is for non-tech people, but how are they going to discover it? Without brick and mortar distribution, this is not going to fly imo.
