I generally think about emotions and thoughts as a function of neurochemical pathways. We know those are subject to reinforcement. That clearly implies that if you want to feel and think better, you should encourage and intentionally practice good thoughts and emotions and inhibit / lay off the bad ones.

The underlying autodiff engine in smallpebble runs computations immediately, as they are defined, for the given inputs. But when modelling, you want to define a model, and then use it again and again, on different inputs. The laziness is a way to do that; you can define a graph of autodiff operations (using "sp.Lazy", and "sp.Placeholder"), without running it, and then pass in values and run the graph on those operations. We end up with something similar to how models are defined in tensorflow [1].

I think you should also factor out the cost. The cost of one F-35 airframe might exceed a squadron of some jets in this list.

> why the west is publicly freaked out and angry about their PWRs

The West wasn't freaked out. In fact, France had agree to provide the technology and help built the plant. They would also do fuel management.

Then the US came in guns blazing killed the deal and started a 20 year idiotic trade war on Iran because of it.

> Like everyone else who builds nuclear power plants it certainly wasnt doing it because it was a cost effective way of going green

If we compare the cost it took France to go Green and what Germany now spends without even being Green, this is simply inaccurate statement. The complete cost of the whole French nuclear fleet is less then the emergency money Germany deployed during the energy crisis. And French consumers had low energy pricing during the crisis while Germany had very high energy prices.

Nuclear is incredibly cost efficient and proven to work as soon as you built large numbers in a short time period.

And Wind and Solar alone are simply not a solution, you have to take into account the cost of upgrades to the grid and you have to take into account storage.

> The "nuclear is the new green jesus" movement makes no sense.

Look at how well it worked for the UAE. Its not that expensive per plant, these plants will work for the next 80-100 years and even only building for the per plant cost goes down.

The market will ratchet on towards this, everything fake, a information garbage dump, demanding fees every step into the digsite. Recursive, fractal, parasitics all the way down.

> Just look at where cable TV is.

With a cable DVR you can arbitrarily control the video stream. You never have to watch an ad if you don't want to. Amazon won't let you conveniently skip these ads.

Streaming was always going to be about losing that freedom. Cable companies weren't bold enough to take that away, or it never occurred to them.

The last time I had Spotify installed, it wouldn't even credit me with having heard an ad if I muted my speakers.
Nothing is neutral. Some things are objective facts, of course, but the English language is such that any way you choose to describe those facts will convey something of your opinion of them.

You might not like the term "late-stage capitalism", but it is a term in common use today, and describes a real phenomenon. The simplest way I know of to summarize it is that it's what happens when a significant percentage of businesses cross the line from "we make a product/provide a service, and if we do it well we make a good profit" to "we are here to make money as fast as possible by whatever means necessary; if we have to make a product/provide a service to do that, that's a necessary evil".

Additionally, calling it "late-stage" doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to go away; it just means that it's a different stage of capitalism (which seems clear from observation), and that it came after (ie, later than) the more classical capitalism.
Author here. Good point. For those that are curious, parent is referring to the following situation:

1. Transaction A starts, its before trigger fires, Row 1 has its updated_at timestamp set to 2023-09-22 12:00:01.

2. Transaction B starts a moment later, its before trigger fires, Row 2 has its updated_at timestamp set to 2023-09-22 12:00:02.

3. Transaction B commits successfully.

4. Polling query runs, sees Row 2 as the latest change, and updates its cursor to 2023-09-22 12:00:02.

5. Transaction A then commits successfully.

A simple way to avoid this issue is to not poll close to real-time, as the order is eventually consistent.

Perhaps a more robust suggestion would be to use a sequence? Imagine a new column, `updated_at_idx`, that incremented every time a row was changed.

That's the second time you've used that phrase in this thread... seems to be flame bait more than anything. Nuclear is cleaner than coal or natural gas, does not emit carbon after construction, and modern technology has made it much more safe (though we'd actually have to build more modern reactors).

Those are facts, not religious beliefs.

As a former boat owner I can say there is nothing cheap about living on a boat. Whatever you save on rent the marina will be sure to extract. Want to live on a mooring? Everyone better have the same schedule because you dinghy out together and you dinghy back together. Insurance? you aren't covered for named storms unless you go very far north or very far south.

Maintenance? Imagine having to move out your house for a few days to weeks while work work is done.

BTW, I really enjoyed living aboard our boat right in the center of downtown and right on the river. But our kid was getting bigger and the novelty of not having the space to be a kid was wearing them down.

Empirically, it is cheaper to live aboard a boat but you give up a lot of quality of life conveniences to make it happen. You could save a lot more money by renting a small <500ft^2 apartment. Effectively that is what your doing anyway.
That seems to be an unrelated discussion. There is no discussion whatsoever that bicycles would be taxed in Belgium. Bicycles have been in use for more than a hundred years at this point and no one suggests taxing them.

There is a clear cut off to distinguish bicycles (and wheelchairs, etc) from other vehicles. Any "pedal assist" that stops assisting when the bike reaches 25km/h is a bicycle, tax free and insurance is optional. The bikes with stronger motors going beyond this or that drive without pedaling need already for many years a license plate and insurance. Not sure it's universal but very common in Europea, probably based on some EU standard document.

Note also that already now everyone's taxes pay for all roads from motorway to bicycle bridge and sidewalk. The income from road taxes for cars and other motor vehicles is tiny compared to the infrastructure costs involved.
In this case transportation grift is a trillion dollar problem in the US, but maybe slightly different than you're saying. A huge portion of US infrastructure is built on the idea that no one in their right mind would walk to it. Our shops are box islands in multi acre oceans of black asphalt. Vast arteries of concrete separate people from where they live to where they buy. So, yea I would say there is plenty of grift at different levels.

> Theyre certainly not doing it for economic reasons (5x the cost of solar or wind) or for the environment. They burn more coal per capita than anybody else in the EU and will likely continue to do so for the 15 or so years until this is completed.

Thanks for editing you comment with some substance...

You do realize that cost and especially viability of wind and solar varies dramatically geographically? Renewables are not as easy to deploy in Poland and the fact that we're going with nuclear is precisely to address the coal situation. (Which is what you're attacking btw...)

Not to mention nuclear is also the safest technology out there so far (read up stats on the deaths per each technology, per megawatt)

If you could translate your computations to MLIR then you have the ability to lift your instructions to various dialects.

For ex, you can lift to the 'metal' dialect or 'nvgpu' dialect. There's also an 'affine' dialect, which implements a small set of polyhedral transformations and works on memrefs like most compilers do. However, it seems that the 'affine' dialect is not as actively used these days. Most optimizations are now performed on tensors, but depending on your use case, it may still make sense.

Well that's a poor article. Not used to that from LWN at all. I think this sentence sums up most of its problems:

> In fact, the pull request for the fix was attached to the report, but that apparently made little difference in the assessment from NVD.

- CVEs are about vulnerabilities, not fixes. If everyone updated their software and all software updated its dependencies, I'm not sure we needed a vulnerability tracking system at all! The fix being available doesn't change the impact or exploitability of the bug while you run the out-of-date software

- The text makes it sound like ratings given are opinions (elsewhere it talks about NVD having a "change of heart"). NVD uses a calculation system called CVSS where you input parameters like whether the vulnerable component can be reached over a network, whether the vulnerability results in denial of service or in confidentiality being breached or whatnot. These are objective parameters, and while interpretation mistakes are extremely common¹, ending up with a vastly different score is rather difficult if you have all relevant information to fill it out in the first place (also because mistakes are likely to cancel out). The article acts as though it's their subjective assessment, but rather, the score changes with new facts being presented. (In an ideal world, of course. In practice they typically forget or aren't told the correct info. But apparently here they were told and did update, so that's good right?)

The article then goes on to state that curl uses its own subjective system now instead and they gave some bug an entirely different rating. The article does not say anything towards who had the more correct result but then goes with the assumption that curl's own subjective rating is better. Is that really what we want, when complaining that NVD gives bad ratings? More subjectivity, intransparency about how they got to a particular result?

Anyway I'm neither loving the CVE system nor CVSS ratings either, but these are the wrong reasons

In the "quasi-DIY power generation space", take a look at Lister engines & their clones (Listeroids)[0]. You end up with a surprisingly efficient[1] engine when you run diesel that drives any belt system you want: flip from a generator to a mill to a water pump. They can run on most any alternative fuel you want to use - biodiesel, waste oils - and their simple low RPM construction means they are durable and easy to work on.
