>Nobody should have to fking pay to ride a damn bike.

Why not? If you use the road you should pay at least some road tax. Bikes should have license plates to better identify traffic violators as well.
They're biodegradable food additives.
That's not really benchmarks. To me, it just shows why putting things like langchain in the mix makes your life harder in the long run. Having to add more tools is not an ideal solution. What people want are actual "building blocks" that don't require adopting a framework
The people transport business could continue on as a stand-alone business without the miles/loyalty business, whereas the opposite is not true. Also, banks typically take deposits, facilitate payments, etc.

In short, not a bank.
Exactly right. It seems difficult for so many folks to understand Kotlin is not some independent language from scratch but another JVM language trying to avoid Java's supposedly shortcomings. And Kotlin/Native/Web doesn't matter because core language design is simply informed by Java and other JVM ecosystem languages' features and limitations.
I think Kotlin is newer/better horse cart to Java's old cart rather than automobile.

Further as others have mentioned Java's 6 month release cycle and ton of changes at language/VM/library layers will make it difficult for Kotlin to choose between complying to latest JVM or chart an independent path.
Remote work seems like one of many missed “Jetsons opportunities.”[a] Why wouldn’t we, given the ability, work from our own comfy homes instead of rolling into a crowded, stuffy office everyday? Why isn’t this practice that workers clearly love, and are willing to leave companies to keep, seen as a great step in the progress of labor? We should be counting our blessings instead of counting beans, that such a way of working is even possible today.

[a] A Jetsons opportunity is any missed prediction of the future from the past, usually in a form like “where’s my flying car?”
You seem to be going to great lengths to avoid confronting the fact that most people simply don't care about logos, or, if they do, are doing it to fit in with whatever crowd they're a part of.
This hits the nail on the head.

The term "feature flag" has come to inherently have a time component because features are supposed to eventually be fulled GA'd.

What I've seen in practice is feature flags are never removed so a better way to think about them is as a runtime configuration.
Mint already uses Plaid, but I the transaction information it gets is too low in information to categorize anything reasonably. For example my Amazon Grocery transaction happen on my amazon Chase Credit card(gives me 5% discount).

But connecting to Chase.com using plaid pulls in transaction statement is still information poor. The obvious consequence of this is that budget information is not correctly reflected in Mint(that info is actually in my Amazon.com silo).
The only way to fix this rn is sadly manually.

As a tangent, I do feel though that LLM agents that can one day act on individuals behalf, reading info and making this manual job far more easier in absence of any govt regulations.
An LLM has nothing in common with a human. An LLM works in ways that have nothing in common with the human brain.
Cross check with your contragents.
For every bit of incoming VAT should be outgoing VAT from your supplier. And for outgoing VAT should be incoming VAT for your client and/or sale to physical customer.

If your incoming VAT are not matched with outgoing VAT from your supplier, you will be charged.

If your supplier declared VAT, but failed to pay it, you have choice: either you have to pay it or you will be inspected to proof that it was not a fake.

Every sale to physical customer in Russia should be uploaded to tax service cloud. You (as a customer) could check your receipt online or using app, and get a reward for reporting tax evasion.

This system boosted VAT revenue x1.5 in a few years.
I've tried running the GitHub runner image (or maybe an imitation) and it was really painful to setup and to get some things working. I just let it go after 2 days.

And it's not just Github. The others big CI platform are not really better in terms of workflow and integration.

Now I just script everything to the maximum.
They were talking about this over diplomatic channels. The news coverage about this happened after Fife gave the Trudeau admin a 24 hour heads up on publishing, which lead to this being publicized 30 minutes before publishing. The story was based on a credible source within the Govt. This has been stated in both Canadian and Indian media.

sure if you use malloc directly in your cython code, you're out on a limb. That's not how simple use of cython goes. You can apply cython to Python code directly as a code inliner and there's little to no risk of C-style issues being introduced.

"two compiler passes being a problem" again this is if you are writing big tracts of C code in your cython; not how it's normally used.

"No standardized package or build system for dependencies" / "all the incentives push you to write everything from scratch in Cython, rather than reuse preexisting libraries." - I dont really understand this part, is this just a general C/C++ does not encourage the use of other native dependencies? We are using Cython to write Python code that is more optimized than plain Python. our dependencies are normally going to be other Python dependencies. If our Cython is to wrap some well known native library, then that has to be installed also when the Python wheel is installed, and that doesnt change if your Python wheel was built from Rust source or C/C++ source.

We use Cython in SQLAlchemy to tremendous effect and excellent integration with existing Python code, including being able to fall back to pure Python (so that our source install runs even if you dont have a compiler or are using Pypy), and we've had zero user issues /bugs / anything. We will consider the Rust tools once they've had several years of maturity and widespread use under their belts (meaning, they'd have to meet or surpass cython's popularity), otherwise we aren't going to hoist that on our userbase anytime soon.
I didn't see what imho is a significant LISTEN/NOTIFY caveat, which is that it is sticky to a session. As such, it requires a dedicated connection - eg, it isn't compatible with pgBouncer in transaction mode.
Disney and Universal shuttles run to many major hotels in Orlando. Uber is always an option too.
The thing keeping me on Prime has been their unlimited photo backup service. The desktop app either doesn't work anymore or I have too much content for it to handle. It spins and spins but nothing happens. I can manually backup via the web client but it's a huge pain and there's no automatic sync of new content. I never really know if I'm 100% backed up either.

I was excited to see Apple announce new iCloud tiers above their old 2TB limit, but the prices go up linearly with storage and as an amateur photography enthusiast I'm not sure even the 6TB $30/mo plan would cover me. The only other choice is an eye-watering $60/mo plan for 12TB.

This is something I have been thinking about, I need to figure out the base abstraction. Even the current implementation (which is basically written for my personal use cases) has too many conditions/grandfathering etc, I suspect it might not be accurate.
1) People really like skins

2) Unlike basically every other game with paid skins, Valve games let you sell them to other players on an open market for Steam credit.

Valve takes 5% of each market transaction and many skins hold their value quite well so using a $200 knife for years and years could only end up costing $10 (+ opportunity cost) or so assuming the market stays flat and you will eventually buy $200 of games in the future.

The real losers in the system are the people with gambling addictions opening cases and hoping to get something really good for less than market price. Cases are free drops but cost $2.50 to open and the average market value of what you win is usually less than (value of the case)+$2.50. Because the cases can be sold there's no limit to the amount of gambling one person can do.

As someone who played a lot of CSGO as a 15-16 year old back in 2015, it's all psychological. Why does anyone become addicted to gambling? The thrill releases enormous amounts of dopamine. Satisfy this over and over, and the threshold for the same euphoria becomes higher and higher. That's how yo end up with people, and particularly teens and young adults spending massive amounts of money for 'some pixels'. I think I sank about 1.5k into it in total over the years. When Belgium decided to ban such loot boxes I was happy to see the addiction forcibly ended.
They just need to repeat it for predatory battlepasses and the likes.
The JVM uses as much RAM as you allocate in your program. If you get along with 4 megabytes then you can set the maximum memory of the JVM to 4 megabytes and it will never use more than that.
Presumably, the poor here asking for money is beggars literally just asking for money while advertisements are telling you about things you could get with money. It's a nice quip but it doesn't represent reality at all.

Just because someone went to school longer, doesn’t mean that they learned more or learned skills they need to function in society. Also, schools today are full of distractions, class changes, unnecessary technology, and much larger class sizes than was present in the 1930’s. It's just not the same environment and simply comparing years of attendance is a naive approach.
might be better to make this a poll

I think it is just another example of how Slack is getting the post-acquisition treatment (enshittification). Let's not forget that they changed from 10k messages to 90 days, hurting a lot of projects in the process. If they wanted to do this right, they would have made the Org and gradient stuff like Discord, user configurable.

Like GitHub, they seem to listen to their users less and less, and seem more interested in how to extract more money while making their platform less usable.
As an engineer, I am generally against feature flags.

They fracture your code base, are sometimes never removed, and add complexity and logic that at best is a boolean check and at worse is something more involved.

I'd love a world where engineers are given time to complete their feature in its entirety, and the feature is released when it is ready.

Sadly, we do not live in that world and hence: feature flags.
How is that checked at compile time?

I will keep that in mind for next time. Unfortunately, perpetuating false narratives - and putting paying customers at risk - makes me uncomfortable.

I believe we can do better. I believe we should do better. There is no wrong place to start that process.

I acknowledge your concerns. I hope you've done the same for mine.
It probably depends on the language you're using. Pattern matching is awesome in Erlang and Elixir. In most other languages it ranges from "nice" to "bleh".
Not quite. In A1111, the process is "pick a seed and iterate the prompt". You're still regenerating the image from noise, and if SD decides to hallucinate a feature that wasn't in the prompt, it's often very hard to remove it.

Since gpt4 natively understands images, there's the potential for it to look at the image, and understand what about it you want to change
> Epic isn't turning around and investing that money into things that make the platform better for everyone like Valve does

Epic invests in devs. Valve invests in users. I guess the difference in focus is why you'll see such different reactions to Valve vs. Epic online vs when talking to actual devs.
> Classifies Semiconductors as Critical to National Security

Well, in a case of direct war with China or Russia, it will not be microchips you would be worried about.

USA is amazingly self sufficient nation, probably more than any other nation in the world, but... it lost far more critical items any nation must manufacture other than iphones.

You will not die from not receiving a new iphone, but you will die from lack of antibiotics if you catch gangrene, or something as dumb as typhus (my uncle died from it in his twenties)

USA can make a superweapons, but can't seem plainly make enough ammo for them. So much bad it is, a single German company produces more shells than entire American industry. All these big tanks, ships, and bombers will become useless in just 2-3 month of intense conflict.

After a big war, you will need huge amounts of basic materials to rebuild fast, before the enemy does the same. I have just to say: China has passed 1 gigaton of steel output per year
Rice cookers. Damned clever. I wish toasters worked on a similar concept.

I think this is all mostly huff and puff and frankly going to be irrelevant. At some point anyone with a decent enough home computer will be able to train their own models and use them as they see fit. Any law that tries to stop that is going to be stifling and unwieldy in the extreme.

And it'll be cross border, so even more difficult to enforce.

> max power means your engine needs a full rebuild every 20 hours of operation

Top fuel drag racers need a rebuild after every run, which typically lasts 4-5 seconds. Their engines can produce 10,000 HP, which is about 7.5 MW.

The word "Paisa" is also used generally for "money" depending on the context. But specifically, 100 Paisas = 1 INR (Rupee).
Mint does not use Plaid. Intuit has their own service for integrating with bank APIs and/or screen-scraping that they use across all their products.
> I mean GH Actions is basically a re-brand of Microsoft's "Azure Pipelines". As somebody who used all previous incarnations of TFS/VSTS/AzDO build and release pipelines: they are not good at this. This is not a team with a record of success. That Azure Pipelines is moderately usable only happened because they failed literally every other approach they tried.

I was under the impression (which might be wrong!) that GHA was an independent project within GitHub that was well underway before the acquisition. Are you saying that GHA was rebuilt on top of AzP, that it's just a relabeling of AzP, or something else?

(I have no particular dog in it being one way or the other, but I'm curious about the history here.)

The disk cache is what lets the second one catch up. It would only happen if the copies were started at nearly the same time; soon enough that what's been copied so far is still in the cache.

I've observed this same behavior on modern operating systems with big rsync jobs and spinning drives. If you have lots of small files then reading the metadata and directory structure takes a while but fits in the cache, so a second rsync will catch up very quickly to the first.
That would still be technically misleading, since enums don't necessarily have tags due to niche optimization. Eg `Option` is an enum but `Option<Box<Foo>>` does not have any tags; it uses the content being zero to represent None since `Box<Foo>` cannot be zero.

Also, Rust does have actual tagged unions for C interop that you have to define yourself as a `struct` with an int field and a `union` field, just like in C.

Here's something that always trips me up when I look into non professional software for double entry accounting (or more accurately, instructions around them).

It's been a long time, so I may be getting it wrong, but I do have some introductory information of accounting. And according to that, in a transaction such as salary received, the accounting would look something like:

Income: Salary - Credit

Assets: Checking - Debit.

The Golden rule/s that apply here (Debit the receiver, credit the giver)

However, looking at the tutorial, the example given is:

2022/01/01 Salary

Income:Salary:Acme (Debit Account)

Assets:Checking (Credit Account)

This is the opposite of what I expect, however, I see this all the time when looking at tutorials/information written by SW devs.

What am I missing or is everyone else just getting it wrong?
I used spaced repetition flashcards throughout school and never really loved any of the options that were out there, so I took up coding and made my own. It's only on iOS right now, but I'll release an android and web version if I ever get any traction on iPhones. Feel free to give it a try and let me know if it's worth my time.
The model where you pay $X to get a game and Valve collects $aX where 0 < a < 1 is a user-friendly model in the long term.

Contrast to the awful "free-to-play" mobile game model and Xbox's GAME PASS model that is certain to go to hell the same way Cable TV went to hell. (Parents who hate video games and would think their kids will quit playing if the games are boring will rejoice but their kids will be grown up by the time it gets that bad.)

My argument is probably insufficient because I think the Apple App Store and Play Stores are really crammed with crap and I'm quite annoyed that the App Store hides the search box because they'd rather spam me with ads for games and apps I don't want.

Boy I feel like a voice in the wilderness railing against GAME PASS because I often pay anywhere from 10% to 5 times the monthly sub to get a game and defenders of GAME PASS will point out "Look, there are even some of those weeaboo games that you like on GAME PASS".
Carboxymethl cellulose can be made from wood pulp and acetic acid (vinegar). Xantham gum is usually made from fermented sugar.

It would be a years-long occupation with no clear end goal.

It would kill at _least_ hundreds of thousands and negatively affect the lives of an order of magnitude more.

It would almost certainly fail by any reasonable metric. Look at how occupying Iraq and Afganistan went, or how the US has done in South America over the last century.

And that's just for starters.
Awesome! I've been using Beancount/Fava for over 2 years now and this looks really slick.

One thing off the bat I noticed, it doesn't look like custom Tags are supported? I use tags all the time in beancount, say to filter for a trip #trip-europe-2022 which would break down my cash flow and balances (and the rest of the fava UI) for a subset of transactions.
Aw thanks! Long John Silver is classic obviously, but I haven’t seen Blackbeard!
We got a whole house generator this year. It’s tied into the natural gas line and has a transfer switch that auto switches over when power is lost.

I like DIY stuff, but the convenience of not doing DIY for something like this is great.

Now… one thing that could be improved is there’s an 8 or so second loss of power while the generator spins up. If the whole house could run on batteries and the generator charge the batteries when mains can’t that would be awesome. But that solution would be very expensive right now.
This misses the point. A big point of feature flags is that you don't yet know how features will be perceived until you get them in front of real users.

I get what you'd like "as an engineer", but it ignores the needs of the business.
Yeah it must be incredible on a big screen. One of a kind.
Steam continues to be the best platform because it shares per-game and per-user cross-game transactional data with everyone. It's kind of hard to explain why this is so important, but it is unique to Steam, compared to all pay-to-play and subscription media as far as I know.

Whereas things like DRM and returns and even royalties differ amongst platforms, and none of those have the same hegemony as Steam does; and the compulsory platforms, like the App Store and Google Play, developers complain bitterly about them in a way I've never heard regarding Steam, which they participate in voluntarily.
I have been thinking about something similar. I think its usability will drastically improve once you are able to find overlaps and differences in meaning between the perspectives of different people/ideas. I would also suspect that it would be uncommon to not at least fall back on some ingroup definitions, even just for practical reasons. After all, it will likely be rare to learn new vocabulary for individual people. Focusing on overlaps and differences together with some kind of color coding should reduce the usage hurdle further.

However, i think the topic overlaps with (outer) alignment. Even if its just so you have a shared reference point (goals) from which you can make sense of meaning. If you dont every dictionary entry will need to stand on its own with information overload likely showing up fast. A minimum approach should further help to prevent trying to build another babel tower.
I understand the feeling. It could definitely be said for browsers (from Netscape to IE, to Firefox and now what might feel like a giant kludge). It could be said for cars (more expensive to own, complicated to fix, only to be stuck in traffic).

I don't think it's a conspiracy though. Certain things do reach saturation, or end of the S-curve, and sometimes society moves on to something else. I now use my old bike mostly instead of my expensive car, sometimes freezing my ass in winter, and I'm getting old and have kids. I could be bitter, but I'm actually quite happy that I can safely cycle in my city now.

So true. I feel sorry for my Android colleagues. There’s a reason our iOS team ships much faster and has a far lower crash rate.
growing a sapphire crystal is difficult, and like silicon chips, the bigger the surface area, the chances of defects goes up exponentially. Additionaly, ading $200-300 to the BOM to make your product last longer is a bad idea, since each broken screen is usually a sale or a $500 repair bill. simple economics.
Years ago I lost access to my steam account that I had since HL2 came out.

I was able to get back in by emailing Valve support the account name, and photos of the box and serial key HL2 came in.

I was genuinely impressed - up to that point I had absolutely despised Steam as DRM shovelware that almost never worked right due to constantly downloading updates over my shitty internet connection.
I found Wheel of Time to be terrible. Great spectacle, but trash acting (outside of the MC) and worse writing.
