I think the setting is a pretty big part of Annihilation. The "about" is something that's shared by many different works, but the setting is a bit more unusual.

So while I don't agree that it's a shameless remake, I would say the most distinctive thing about it is the setting, and so to some extent it's a fair cop.
Whether you have the required space or not, two other variables complicate any attempt to do this:
1) length of the growing season - Where I live, we have 5-6 months of active growth. Never more than 6. Snow covers the garden the rest of the year.
2) time - Tending your growing food source is one investment in time, but because the food does come in all year at a regular rate, you are forced to spend time prepping it in a way that it will remain edible until the next harvest after the snow melts. It’s a lot of time. We only have about 100 m2 for vegetables but we spend hours a week pickling, canning, freezing, dehydrating, cooking and freezing. If our yields were larger to the point of complete sustainability, it would be a full time job.

The article you're responding to is a dramatic demonstration that it has happened: Amazon's IPs would not be worth $4.5B if we hadn't run out. It requires us all to ration a resource (namely numbers) that should be near-infinite and essentially free.
No. Consent is only needed for data you collect which is unnecessary to provide the service you are offering and is unexpected by the user. If you require an email address for a mailing list or notifications, you do not need consent. If you have webserver logs containing IP addressees you use for debugging and abuse prevention, you do not need consent (though you probably want to not hang onto them for longer than necessary for those purposes). Same with names and addresses for billing and shipping, etc. If you collect data for analytics or targeted advertising, you need consent (which means rejecting that option needs to be the default and at least as easy as accepting in the dialog, something which many of these dialogues fail at. If it takes more clicks to close the dialog without 'accepting', that is not GDPR compliant in the view of most regulators).
I think this is absolutely one of the reasons. Addresses are very hard to remember in ipv6. You usually just have to remember the first 3 parts of ipv4 and then change the last digit based on the host you want. IPv6 I know it has shorthand but still it doesn’t register in my brain the same way.

I don't think this is a useful thing to say. If I keep trying to fill up my electric car with petrol, and get so annoyed that it keeps spilling on the floor that I pay someone to install a petrol cap and fuel tank, it would be equally silly to say that electric cars failed in their mission to get rid of petrol use.

I think I can see what's going on here - I used a shapefile with the boundaries of the world's countries (and their coastlines) which had some geometric simplification applied to it. This file was used to mask out any water (for which the embedding model won't do much), but I think that the simplification process snapped the coastline too far inland, leaving some points on land which were masked out erroneously.

Depends on what kind of machine you're running.

I purchased a 7900XTX on release day, with the Linux drivers being in a fairly rough state and new fixes being added daily. So, for the next 3-4 months, I was running Fedora Rawhide with the Koji repo added - about as bleeding edge as it gets, short of building locally from source. Rolling back definely came in handy once or twice.

Once things stabilized, I rebased back to non-Rawhide Fedora 37 and stayed there. Then, a few weeks ago, I found out that AMD had been working on ROCM for the 7xxx series, so I've rebased to Rawhide again to play around with AI tools on the 6.6 kernel.

I've also occasionally encountered non-critical bugs, suspected it might have been fixed upstream, and temporarily rebased to Rawhide just to check out if that was the case before reporting it. Pretty nice.

It fits quite will within French legal tradition. Remember that it was Montesquieu himself who said 'le juge n'est que la bouche de la loi'. When I was working on my law degree, I (being a programmer) was quite interested in this field, and (although my French wasn't/isn't great, so I didn't get to go as deep as I would have liked) I found a large community of such legalistic work in French speaking parts of the world. The professor at my university who was into this sort of stuff also seemed to lean towards that sphere of influence.

> which is the only thing people actually wanted from IPv6.

I'm not sure this is true. There's a lot of warts in the way IPv4 was put together (ARP is a tire-fire of badness for example), and the opportunity was taken to implement those in a better way. Lots of network engineers are very happy about that.

This is my story too. I remember playing with Basic on an Apple II and how it was a revelation, but then a big void in the 90s up until graphing calculator in high school. I was so frustrated, programming seemed a parallel world I had no idea how to reach but was deeply attracted to. I had fun with HyperCard and ResEdit but I knew I was just scratching the surface. When I finally grabbed a copy of CodeWarrior it was way too complex for me, and console-like C programs too limited. If only something like Unity had existed back then..
No, I describe existing practice with NAT where you in fact have IP addresses extended by TCP/UDP port numbers. You could instead move this "port" directly into IP header in backward-compatible way and fall back to stateful NAT only if the counterparty does not support it.
Clearly, they are not compliant with WASI specifications built by the ByteCode Alliance, creators of WebAssembly. They are making their own web-assembly-thing not compliant with anything.

> Instead had the approach been ipv6 only from the start, with no dual-stack, having the OS transparently deal with sockets to ipv4 devices by converting to the ipv6 mapped address (:ffff:xxxxxxx), and thus eliminating the need for dual stack from the start, things would have moved far far faster.

This is, indeed, how dual-stack works; you open a PF_INET6 socket and use sockaddr_in6 addresses for everything, including IPv4 (which get mapped to ::ffff:/96 addresses). Been like that essentially forever. The “dual” in dual stack refers to the OS' stacks, not userspace.

That answer sucks so much that after nearly 15 years of Wayland evangelism KDE e.V. Directors are writing blog posts with "Wait, that sounds like it sucks" as a heading and talking about how the issues have been resolved to the point where it is just "ready enough for Plasma and KDE apps", with some reasonable paraphrasing. That is not a history to be proud of, for all that even Wayland is a big step up from X and we're all grateful for the efforts these people go to.

This idea that screenshots require special OS-level privileges has been tested and, in practice, does not work. Literally nobody wants compositor-specific screenshot applications. It should have been addressed in the Wayland standards in the early drafts.

Fair enough unrestricted access to any pixel is a security problem. But banning all access to pixels other programs control was an unworkable position that, in hindsight, didn't work. Telling people that the process that merges all the pixels together needs special OS-level support for reporting on what the merged output look like is just not sane. Something went wrong in the design process.

It is very common for small models, and sometimes even 7B model gets stuck.

There was an article/paper showing that GPTs (whole family) quickly get confident in looping if there is anything loop-like in the window. So basically, as soon as it loops once, it will never get out of it.

Note that sometimes loops are desired, like with docstring in the code, always starting before the function definition, and other structural things.

I think hubris is unwanted. An accurate appraisal of someone else is hard if you cannot even appraise yourself. And nobody likes posturing.

Conways law helps here. Every interaction between two engineers is a unique numbered permutation. That can either have positive value or negative value based on each skill level. Even if one is a beginner and one is an expert.

I have a great deal of respect for people who ship lasting software, even if other people criticize their solutions.

I have a great deal of respect for people who write entire systems, even if other people criticise their code or nitpick it or want to rewrite it.

I have a great deal of respect for people who can do the entire thing by themselves.

How many silent engineers are holding the world together but don't talk and share their knowledge and skills? They don't have GitHub profiles. How do you evaluate their skill?

If other people were to evaluate my work and that be used as the benchmark to evaluate my skill and help me get jobs based on other people's perspectives of me as a developer.

Organisations want perfect candidates who are good at everything. (T shape individuals)

Given how fast the industry has grown, you'll get a big mix of talent in a software engineering department.

Bring someone in from another company and they could level the place with criticism that "they did it wrong".

The whole hubris thing gives me negative feelings.

- High quality noise cancelling headphone. My preferred ones are Bose QC35.

- A noise machine. This doesn’t mean random noise. But anything that’s not music. My preferred is Brain.fm and/or myNoise.net (brown-ish presets).

- Very strict family policy of no disturbance by entering or asking me to do anything. I’m aggressively defending my space. Any violation will be noticed, pointed out and rejected. After a while everyone gets it. I told my family to imagine that I’m not home. If they call my name, I can’t hear them. If they knock on my office door I’m not there to open it. Any comms while I’m working must be in writing and I’ll respond when I can. I realize I sound like an asshole here, but there’s no other way to make it work with my family ;)

He mentioned Upwork. Personally, I feel like Upwork has a near monopoly on easy-to-access freelance work at this point. Except for jobs that you find from direct acquaintances or friends or through fairly long involved searches. And I am probably more isolated than most, but I suspect that many people's networks get saturated pretty quickly with job requests when things are tight.

I rely on Upwork when I run low on time to find the next gig quickly between work on my own startup.

I believe that within a few years they may start going a little along the path of Stack Overflow. They will have a whole section of AI "staff" that are literally competing with the real people on the site for many types of jobs. This will enrage the current users even more than what has happened with Stack Overflow.

But I don't think they really have a choice. They may already be working on it.

If Upwork doesn't do it then there will likely be another site along those lines specializing in "AI employees".
MTBs and later submarines were indeed threats to battleships and large surface combatants. But they were manageable with a screening force of smaller ships, especially with the advent of wireless telegraphy so the screen & scouting ships could stay over the horizon and/or out of visual range at night. There is a reason torpedo nets went in and out of fashion a few times.

Planes however were a huge threat to ships. Manually guided AA guns simply were not able to deal with them for a time, leading to situations like you said. Screening ships were not able to deal with them nearly as effectively. Modern surface to air missiles are at a point now where its a lot more of a fair fight, but as with anything, enough planes (or enough ships for that matter) will overwhealm.

Nowadays the main "meta" of naval surface combat revolves around anti-ship missiles. Over time destroyers have crept up in size, and armour has been all but abandoned as well. These new "destroyer" ships are enormous, with Arleigh Burke as an example sized comparible to 1900 heavy armoured cruisers. This allows them to carry a lot of anti ship missiles which are enormous.

This is because a large part of the counter strategy revloves around a few things. #1 - to be effective, you need to have several missiles timed to arrive at the enemy positon at once, to overwhealm their defence systems (CIWS and the like). Each defence system has a certain time taken and probability of successfully downing an incoming missile, so ideally you want both multiple defences on each ship (covering all incoming angles) and overlapping fields of fire (to catch any that leak through each individual defensive system). This synergises very well with multiple ships in close proximity able to cover one another with their defences, but they must be arranged carefully to allow a maximum of their defensive weapons to fire at oncoming missiles without blocking each other.

Small unmanned surface combatants may change this again, but to my mind the countermeasures are similar (layered fields of defensive fire, focus on defeating large incoming swarms using multiple overalpping systems)

US is literally built on immigration!! Millions of Germans, Italians, Japenese, Persians, Chinese, Indians immigrated to the US since the 18th century.

Benjamin Franklin was very worried about German immigrants in the US and he described them as "less intelligent", "aliens" and that they won't assimilate. Fast forward few decades later/centries later, Germans are one of the most successful immigrants group in the US, industrialising the country, creating financial institutions, and becoming military and political leaders, giving US presidents and generals.
Recently, Asian immigrants created Silicon companies. One of them is a trillion dollar company called Nvidia.

France has a huge success story with immigrants as well, the poles (Marie Curie), the Italians, the Portuguese, North Africans, etc.

There are certain issues here and there, especially with unregulated modern mass migration, but in my opinion, that's not a true representation of real immigration that has always happened since the beginning of time.

The fact that Sweden has integration issues with mass migration from war-torn Syria is a special case.

Man, trying to find a toaster that will evenly toast a slice of tall loaf (which is the default bread where I'm at) is like pulling teeth. I've settled for one that toasts one side much more quickly than the other and resorted to flipping the bread around halfway through. It's much larger than I'd like though since it's built for 4 regular slices. That way I can fit two and two half slices of tall loaf.

Can I just pay someone $50 for a toaster that actually works please?
With JSON/XML the app owner decides the schema of the saved file, as they should. One day Sqlite will do some perfectly fine change that’ll break people who outsource their file format to it. Own your file format!

That said there is some nuance and it depends what the user expects. Is you app more of an MSWord where people expect a format that is decades backward compatible and only changes on explicit save, or is it more like a live app with a db back end. If the latter there should be no save concept around the DB file but perhaps a backup and restore function that exports to a controlled format.
