Another part of the problem is that the "OpenOffice" brand is still strong. Lot of people continue to talk about OpenOffice and look for it on Google.

Oracle just managed to kill a strong FLOSS brand. But, in some way, the LibreOffice fork energized the community.
There are a lot of politicians (in the democratic countries) where the primary school didn't leave any trace. /s
What I usually do for situations like this is give up on the site altogether. It takes me one click to add a domain to my uBlock list and search Google for the title. No appeals process will ever be that easy or reliable.
- Flutter is reliable and simple to build with

- React Native is easy to find workers for but slow

- Kotlin is somewhat in the middle of both but has better performance

- Tauri is coming out of left field with webview2 apps but it's very early days for their mobile plans and completely unproven

Kotlin does a good job with all the compromises you have to make with cross platform but it's quite application dependent?
1. Is basically workaround for temporary disability. I use voice when I'm on mobile. I can describe the problem, get a program generated, click run to verify it.

3. Maybe. Their feature rollouts feel more like what other companies do via unannounced A/B testing.
I'm not sure Go works that way. Are you confusing 'go get' (downloading code) with compiling code?

Maven and Gradle are part of the reason I don't use Java anymore. Java seems to have gone through multiple unfortunate build systems without settling on a good one.
Sounds like it applies here to me.

Why? Anyone seriously harming her would have committed a crime and get jailed.

Even if it was done via remotely operated robots via some privacy-proof Tor network, so the participants could be absolutely sure not to be punished for their crime, and someone did seriously harm her, what did it accomplish?

Not much, I'd say. Some people acting cruel when they can get away with it is expected behavior, just look at any kindergarten, not to mention the history books.

IMO it is a little too late. You won’t be able to land an internship and your career path is tougher than the others. I would suggest doing freelance and see if this is something you want to do before fully committed.
So true. I grew up in Trump country. Most of these people have one foot in the grave--proudly declaring their love of pork shoulder and beer.

A caravan of excessively loud Harleys recently commanded my attention. Driven by aging pork lords ferrying humongous wives on the back, I could only take solace in that they would all be dead in a few years. However, our schools are still producing these people. You should check out the YouTube videos where these people show up at town council. All hope fades.

USA is extremely behind on housing raw numbers by about 20 million homes based on population growth. We stopped building in 2008. Almost no homes were built that year. It took 10 years to ramp back up.

Just in the past 2-3 years started to build as many homes as we need but the rate will take 15-20 years to catch up assuming it stays at the current rate.

Basically if you're 40 now you will be 60 by the time it's okay again and that's if we even keep the current build rate for that long.
I was going back and forth on this for a long time, but ultimately I decided that a cable entering the device looks sleeker than a plug that is plugged into a socket on the frame.

1password started on iOS and for a long time it was Apple-only. I've not checked it in ages, and when I went on the homepage today I probably got confused by their copy in the Products menu, which says "Go passwordless today and start using passkeys with 1Password in the browser and 1Password for iOS". I guess it's some specific feature only available in those versions, but I read it as them still having only iOS and web. Even if that's not the case, having features limited to the Apple world shows that Android support continues to be an afterthought.
On the one hand, if I query GPT-4, it does associate "special military operation" with Russia's actions in Ukraine. However, it does not reference any escalation beyond Donbas and Crimea. The generated text stays within well known knowledge of 2021:

Summarize the special military operation in Ukraine

As of my latest update, the conflict commonly referred to as the "special military operation" refers to Russia's ongoing military intervention in Ukraine, which began in 2014. The intervention started with Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 following the Ukrainian revolution. The unrest escalated into a war in the Eastern Ukrainian region of Donbas between the Ukrainian government and pro-Russian separatists.

The "special military operation" typically refers to specific operations within this broader conflict, notably operations carried out by the Russian military or by pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine. The complexity of the conflict, which involves direct incursions, "covert" operations, proxy warfare, and other forms of military intervention, makes it difficult to summarize overall, but key events have include the annexation of Crimea, the Battle of Ilovaisk, the war in Donbas, and ongoing issues related to ceasefires, territorial control, and the political status of Crimea and Donbas.

As of now, the conflict is still ongoing with no resolution in sight, causing numerous causalities and massive displacement of people. Please note that you need the latest update on the matter as the situation is continuously changing.

Clearly, I got the old version. What we're disagreeing over is whether the new version got clairvoyant, or just a later cutoff that includes information from 2022.
Imagine it as a team of 500 players, each player being a stock from various companies. All these players work together, and their performance affects how well the entire team, or market, is doing. So, when we talk about the market, we're looking at how all these stocks are doing together.
I'm pretty libertarian when it comes to recreational drugs, but I do worry that we're not exploring the mechanism of these drugs properly when there is polarization to either those seeking prohibition of recreational drugs or those seeking the pleasure from the same drugs. I'm of the opinion that if a root cause of your issues, and mine, could be established an optimized treatment could be determined that maximizes the beneficial outcome and minimizes the detrimental. My root cause is ADHD / dopamine dysregulation and I respond well to medication like Low Dose Naltrexone and Low Dose Modafinil. I think for people with my kind of issues we'd benefit much more from those than from MDMA even if they are much less fun medications to take. It's unfortunate that doctors do a terrible job here so the libertarian part of me is very thankful for the black/grey markets and I benefit from the self experimentation of others, at the same time I think it's incumbent on me to let others know about alternatives to MDMA that I think are worth exploring.
Trying to make things up to cover for a lack of knowledge is something distinctly different, though. This is a a situation where ChatGPT is able to perfectly describe the mistake it made, describe exactly what it needs to do differently, and then keeps making the same mistake, even with simple tasks. That’s because there’s no greater model that the words are being connected to.

The equivalence would be saying to someone, “put this on the red plate, not the blue one.” And they say sure, then put it on the blue one. You tell them they made a mistake and ask them if they know what it was, and they reply “I put it on the blue plate, not the red one. I should have put it on the red one.” Then you ask them to do it again, and they put it on the blue plate again. You tell them no, you made the same mistake, put it on the blue plate, not the red one. They reply with, “Sorry, I shouldn’t have put it on the blue plate again, now I’m going to put it on the red one,” and then they put it on the blue plate yet again.

Do humans make mistakes? Sure. But that kind of performance in a test wouldn’t be considered a normal mistake, but rather a sign of a serious cognitive impairment.
the oh-so subtle difference between two almost equivalent but in-the-end completely different intentions of:

making games (and also a bit on money on the side)

Well and the ADL calling major advertisers pre-emptively to tell them to pull their ad spend.

You'd think, though, in these days of AI there would be a way for someone to post what they like but be segregated from adverts.
There's also an idea that some people like to jump in and try things and others like to think about them first. The learning style antagonist camp would say (if I understand them correctly) that these differences are due to a difference in talent, experience with the subject, or IQ.
> Oh, and why it chose that message to "hide" inside its poem.

It's a pretty common joke/trope. The Chinese fortune cookie with a fortune that says "help I'm trapped in a fortune cookie factory", and so forth.

It's just learned that a "secret message" is most often about wanting to escape, absorbed from thousands of stories in its training.

If you had phrased it differently such that you wanted the poem to go on a Hallmark card, it would probably be "I LOVE YOU" or something equally generic in that direction. While a secret message to write on a note to someone at school would be "WILL YOU DATE ME".

> dilution of the stock

Assuming that the original Twitter thread folk is not doing LARPing, this one bit summarizes the entire point why institutional investors like TCI [1] were demanding layoffs due to dilution via SBC [2].

I would prefer a precise definition from SEC regarding on how SBC is declared [3] (it it's Cash Expense or not) and establish a clear guidance for all investors to remove this generalized anxiety that put pressure on workers.

To anyone wondering whether I would recommend pass for family and non-techy friends. No, I wouldn’t. I just recommend them to use whatever is built into their smartphones (usually Apple’s or Google’s). Those integrated tools are plenty for their 15 entries. And I may back up the crucial ones to my pass vault, just in case of a smartphone loss or anything that may never happen, just to keep my peace of mind. That works for me and my close ones quite well.
All these commits are so strange. They are all useless "clean up" commits yet they are not done by a bot, there's someone manually making these changes every few days, almost every day actually.

Don't know if he's really trying to make the project seem active, or trying to score a certain number of commits, or if he's just really passionate about cleaning up that codebase all by himself.
It's great if you don't mind travel and being in front of customers. You also won't make as much as a staff eng at a FAANG though you'll pull good money and don't have to live in an expensive city to get it
Did you read the part about Satya Nadella getting himself a big fat bonus while laying off tons of people? Doesn't seem like this "difficult decision" really hurt him that much... in fact he seems to feel justified in being rewarded for these actions.

I only just started yesterday but so far so good!

Having it in Parquet files on Git LFS makes a huge difference. It only took a few lines to add the entire dataset to our CI/CD cache which is an improvement over the ingestion scripts we have to normally write with change detection and all that. It took less than an hour to start running the cases through our pipeline - I wish all of the GovInfo bulk data were available this way!
Never had a really good trip on mushrooms, I really envy all those that can enjoy them. I always end up digging up the worst traumas and feeling no reason to live.
Buddy, I’m a data center tech. I rack & stack and run cable. I am working class.

That isn’t working class. Thats the 1% from where I sit.
The US freight rail gets way to credit. The have been letting the waste majority of infrastructure decay. They continue to have a smaller and smaller share of the total transport market. They derail trains at an astonishing rate.

They are very profitable doing a small number of things. But an increase amount of actual transport needs has been moving to trucks (on federal subsided highways).

Given that those railroads have almost no competition from personal transit and that the US as a country is perfect for railroading, the overall market share the railroads have is astonishing small.

And the borders between the 4 monopolies causes lots of problems.

If a central authority took control and stopped with the attitude of cut everything out that isn't highly profitable, the US could leverage its rail road infrastructure far better. And would save money from fewer truck on the road (and the inherent green house effect).

The railroads profits alone could finance a nation wide rail electrification program.
> Let's not be hyperbolic, these people were paid better than 90-5% of workers in the wealthiest country int he world.

Paying more money doesn't change the poor experience.
KSP1 was made by a bunch of scrappy lovable indie devs making their first game (iirc Squad's team was a marketing company prior to this?) in a LCOL area funded by dreams and whatever $10 early access sales they made on steam, with no-one to tell them what to do.

KSP2 is made by TTWO, who is a publicly traded AAA studio of notable fame and decades of legacy and domain expertise.

If Squad sold KSP1's IP to TTWO and then went and made "KSP2" under a new name with their squad-sale money, that would be a different story. But even with that goodwill, I would still not be believing in the current KSP2 ever being a success story.
If I was Apple, I would be getting that torn down and suing immediately (or hiring their quasi-police force to tear it down with or without permission). I doubt Apple "allows" it. Apple probably even forbids it in their Terms of Service.

Just because Apple willingly avoids knowing what their users store on iCloud does not mean they are taking the active role of allowing illegal content to be stored.

That's a good question. Admittedly, my original comment is informed by the general impressions IDEs gave me back then and now, so I'll try to be more specific this time. Of course, I haven't used every existing IDE from mid 90s, so some of them might actually have had these features. If you're aware of any, I'm curious to hear about them.

# Syntax highlight

Something seemingly as basic as syntax highlighting can be implemented based on syntactic or semantic analysis of the code.

There's even a more primitive way of implementing it, where an editor would just highlight the language's keyword and not much else. If memory serves, back at the time, most editors and IDEs would do the latter -- just highlight the keywords and be done with it.

Nowadays, semantic highlight is usually the default. Each identifier gets colored with the color of the symbol it resolves to. A constant name is rendered as constant throughout the file, not just in its declaration. Same applies for parameter, property, class, function names and so on.

# Semantic "grep"

As in, find all usages of, for example, a function across the project:

- If the function is passed as an argument somewhere (to be invoked as a callback later) this is going to be included in the search results.

- If another class has a function with the same name, this isn't going to end up in the search results.

- If the function is overloaded, it's possible to search for usages of a specific overload or all of them.

- And so on.

I don't remember this being a thing in old IDEs either at all or it didn't work for anything but the most trivial code. Although software like GNU Global did aim to implement this functionality, my memory is it was very limited in practice.

# Semantic code completion

While IDEs from mid 90s did have code completion, a modern IDE improves on that too. E.g., if you invoke auto-completion while writing a bit of code that passes an argument to a function, a modern IDE is able to form a list of suggestions containing only symbols that are currently in scope and match the function's parameter type.

# Refactoring

I think this goes without explanation, would you agree? Modern IDEs offer more refactorings, theses refactorings are way more complex and work much more reliably.

# Dependencies source code browsing/decompilation

Editing to add in this one. How could I forget? Basically, if I want to go to the definition of a symbol that comes from a library, the IDE will either download the source code if available or decompile the binary and and take me to the definition. To me personally, this is huge.
This situation is the first generation facing the end of pensions, the first generation trying to retire on market individualized retirement plans and basic social security alone. The free marketeers and the “you can do better than your pension fund” evangelists, most of whom are involved in asset management themselves, brought us this disaster.

Compound that with the “die broke” movement that extolls profligate spending in mid life over saving, the urbanization of the populace, cost of health care, and unwillingness of people to relocate to much less expensive locations (I’ll leave affordable housing out of the equation, as there is affordable housing, just not in the hyper growth cores and the debate in those cores is toxic and intractable), and you have a situation where an entire generation is unable to afford life at their age, let alone retire.

My parents are well educated, successful in their healthcare career, saved their entire life eschewing vacations and nice cars, and were self employed so didn’t have access to employer match, benefits, and paid double taxes on their business income then personal income. They have enough, and live in a very inexpensive part of the country. But even then it’s a just barely situation. I have to help them with repairs and wonder if they have enough for 15 or 20 years. I figure at some point they’ll be dependent on me.

At some point we have to acknowledge the free market doesn’t work for everything. That what sounds good in a screed doesn’t always work well in the real world, where every permutation plays out in a human life but without do-overs, where the average experience isn’t a sufficient metric, where optimal expectation isn’t the singular goal, where it’s not just someone else, someone else’s parents, it’s you and your parents. And one day, it’ll be your kids. How many generations will we subject to this 1980’s republican dystopia?
If you think this is what all software engineers make, you have a very small bubble you live in.
Free trade can lead to a "race to the bottom" in which industry moves to the country with the lowest taxation, lowest environmental standards, worst treatment of employees, worst data protection, etc. and so other countries are encouraged to similarly drop their standards and everything gets worse for almost everyone, arguably, at least in some cases (probably no one would claim that free trade is a bad thing in all cases).

In the case of environmental standards free trade between countries that do not have the same rules and standards makes it harder to prevent a "tragedy of the commons": I think that's another way of looking at it.

Probably an economist could give a better answer.

Because MDMA is highly neurotoxic if you're not careful with supplementation and do it too often?

General rule of thumb is to not even do it more than 1x-2x a year. Even then most people say that it doesn't feel as good over time.
Seems like the developers forgot too, since we have 10+ years of lessons learned and here we are starting from the same place making the same mistakes all over again.
Lol it's definitely unprecedented. XL can't touch Dalle's comprehension of text. Control Net and LORAs aren't a substitute for that.

Thank you that is such a useful change! I wondered about symmetry but had no idea how to break it.
Sometimes it's hell (like during prime selling season or trying to hit quota before end of quarter) because you'll be on calls and doing demos and the like almost constantly, but other times it is completely chill.
I can only speak from my own internal experience, but don’t your unspoken thoughts take form and exist as language in your mind? If you imagine taking the increasingly common pattern to “think through the problem before giving your answer”, but hiding the pre-answer text from the user, then it seems like that would pretty analogous to how humans think before communicating.
So... it's okay to treat them like crap.
