>Don't you have to be fairly well off to invest the time to write a book?

I can say, after 30 years in the publishing business, that the answer to that is no. Many writers are not that well off. In fact, many struggle financially. Many have 'day jobs' to pay the bills.
Has been discussed previously[1] on HN, but it's been a while. And my interest in this was piqued by this recent(ish) video series on "Category Theory for AI".[2]

I was a little taken aback when I first heard them use the term "applied" in conjunction with the term "category theory" since you hear so much rhetoric on the 'net about how category theory is "abstract nonsense" or whatever. You see a few claims that it's only really of interest to pure mathematicians. But maybe that's not the case after all? Hmmm. I feel like I have some reading and watching to do.

Poker-specific term. In one sense it's a loan, but really it's more like "investing" in a player, giving them the money they don't have to buy into a game ("table stakes") in exchange for a percentage of their winnings.
This honestly doesn't sound like a problem as such types fall into one of two categories: ones which need to execute on one thread--in which case resuming them should always resume on their native runtime as they are thread-locked: I already have to deal with this as I adapt between the runtimes in C++ and it simply isn't a concern--and ones whose storage in virtual memory are somehow fundamentally locked to a specific CPU core and I honestly have never myself coded one of these despite having done some extremely low-level development.

Like, here: if I am in my single-threaded runtime and I await something on a different runtime with a billion threads, MY continuation does NOT need to be able to resume on any of those threads as it CAN'T. To achieve "seamless interoperability" I just need to be able to await the other routine and resume when it completes, not somehow make the two runtimes merge into one unified one and violate their constraints. The ONLY data from my coroutines which should end up on a different thread is what I explicitly pass to the routine, not my continuation.
It's funny, Hank Green expressed a very similar attitude at the question of "What would you do in the Zombie Apocalypse?" (which quietly is "What will you do during the collapse of modern society?).

His answer was "I'm going to embrace my destiny and run towards the Zombies. There's no way I want to live in a world that's 80% Zombies and 20% Survivalists."

Replace with 80% struggling-to-survive-poor and 20% sociopaths-with-weapons... and yeah. Pessimism is not the wrong answer IMO.

EDIT: A pre-emptive statement: if you're a survivalist in the collapse of modern society, you have to be (or become) a sociopath. Caring too much about your peers will get you betrayed and killed once the easy supplies are gone.
Wasn’t there a Google phone that naturally placed it on the center back? I don’t do it as much these days, but grabbing the phone with my thumb and unlocking it as I pull it out of my pocket is still a semi natural occurrence. It should be pretty possible to achieve the same with the index finger and I believe whichever Google phone did this managed to pull it off pretty well
Staking, the present participle of stake, which means a wager, bet, or pledge. Tony is loaning Davey the money, but specifically to use as a wager, or stake, so it is Tony that is staking.
> > A history of doing the right thing doesn't matter in the slightest

> If we all thought this way, certainly there'd be no incentive for anyone to do the right thing at all? A good track record should be rewarded, up until the point when it stops. You shouldn't trust any company indefinitely, but there are a few that you can trust "for now".

They are doing "right thing" now so later when they dominate market they will be able to squeeze you like a lemon. Scorpion and a frog situation. It's just in their nature.

> because they're paying the same nominal property tax rate from 40 years ago

This is a myth. Nobody is paying the same property tax from 40 years ago. Property taxes in California go up 2% every year under Prop 13.

It can be argued whether costs should increase faster or not, but in any case it is factually incorrect to say someone is paying the same as 40 years ago.
> Curiously, this review (and perhaps the book being reviewed?) makes no mention of the model of mathematics as a language. This seems to be a common idea among working mathematicians and physicists[1,2], and it is rather clear that the question of reality of a language is ill-formed.

Sorry, if this isn't clear to everyone, why does this result in the rejection of mathematics as a language rather than the rejection of the question of the realism of mathematics? The latter seems much easier with no downsides (that I can see), whereas the rejection of mathematics as a language has many downsides.
> it’s predictable - it’s consistent - and it’s mindless.

I've been referring to this as "baked-bean-ification". Something originally quite distinctively spicy and varied gets progressively fine tuned for the mass market, resulting in a universally inoffensive and yet immeasurably bland experience.

Suppose you go to some kind of event, and it's paid for by an advertiser. At the event, the advertiser walks around and hands out booklets for whatever they're selling, and insists you spend some time reading the booklet.

Are you obligated to actually read the booklet? Or is "no thanks" OK?
> I mean no slander or disrespect to anyone involved, but there was a DataDog alternative posted sometime in the last few weeks that had a docker-compose with like 15 containers in it.

If this was us [1] (an OSS Datadog alternative posted last week :D ), we do have quite a bit (11, 2 are optional) but we're working on bringing it down.

We currently split our ingestion pipeline into 3 independently scalable bits, but we can probably bring it down into 1 for any small-scale deployment. Otherwise we do have the standard need for a cache (redis), db (mongo), main storage (clickhouse), and then the standard API server + frontend, and a separate task to run alerts.

There's likely a few more things we can merge together, but it comes at the expense of making it unscalable to workloads typical to a company and divergence in the code base, which overall doesn't seem like the right tradeoff.

Imo the real concern as someone that personally owns too many tiny VM instances is resource footprint - which can be tuned down to ~1GB of memory for us (depending on server load).

Feel free to open an issue too if you think there's something we can adjust there as well.

Fwiw, Litchi is based on their SDK, so you're not really avoiding their software by using it.
Actually it's quite common for game dev studios to make custom mods to engines (source code to Unreal engine available here for example: https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/ue-on-github). The idea with forking an open source engine as a game dev would not necessarily be to maintain it for the community, but to bring it in house and ensure continuity for your own projects.
> My point is that we do know viruses "directly cause" Type 1 diabetes

If you mean virus are capable of directly causing T1D in theory and animal models, sure. As to whether this actually happens to humans in real life is as clear as mud.

There is also similarly weak evidence that says viruses have either no or a protective role in the pathogenesis of T1D.

Shadow Complex is a classic at this point—I played through it at release while sick in bed with H1N1 in 2009. it's like the perfect medium-sized game—it goes above and beyond to do cool stuff, without ever overstaying its welcome in any regard. just enough neat cool things you haven't seen before—like pushing the right stick up contextually aiming your gun into the Z-plane to shoot guys in the background. I wish people set out to make more medium-sized games like that, though I'm sure the budget was much higher than we think it is.

No, I don't.

Those people only have them to talk to you, because you're not in Japan and don't use LINE.

People in Japan who don't have foreign friends don't have this issue.

I believe so, but I do not think it is worth the effort and complexity for a lean team. I just recently half-built something like this that used Docker build layers to run lint/test/build/etc. Each build layer was tagged by some sort of manifest hash to guarantee that, if that particular layer was retrieved from cache, the inputs (the codebase files) were identical. The idea was to use fast developer machines to do the work and basically just check the hashes in CI (or skip the separate CI environment entirely).

It turned out all right, but I dropped it for a few reasons. Overall, it was not worth the effort and complexity. First, making it fast and safe was a PITA compared to just...running a few commands in a normal CI environment. Second, for manifest-style hashes, you have to either exclude the .git folder (which means no diffing/affected commands) or try to clean it up somehow (which obviously can be done, but if you do that in a Docker layer it screws up your caching, etc.). Third, it generated an ungodly amount of local cached data. There are a few other reasons I dropped it, but they're generally related to safety/optimization/caching/git.

In my area of the US, we have zoning laws more favorable than most. Even so, you can't build anything but SFH on my street. You can subdivide your acre lot and build 10 homes where there used to be one, and some people have done this. Still, you won't be building any duplexes or attached homes. Only detached single-family homes allowed.
The current nutrition label design was a huge step forward from what preceded it, but is overdue for a reevaluation. As understanding of health effects have of different foods have changed, so should the information hierarchy displayed on the label. The ratios of fats, carbohydrates, and protein should be instantly visually glanceable. Fiber content should be much more prominent. The reduction in fiber is probably one of the most salient characteristics of "processed" food.
Yep. I just bought the latest AMD hotness in laptop form. After giving the abomination known as Windows 11 a spin for a few days since it's installed by default, for the first time ever I'm running Linux as my daily driver and I couldn't be happier.
If doesn't make a lot of sense in most cases in C++ either (and as auto gets better it has only made sense in fewer cases since it was introduced)... I write a lot of C++ and I essentially never ever ever need or even merely use decltype; but, when it does make sense, it really truly makes sense, and here we have a place in Rust that sounds exactly like the use case in C++ where this actually comes up.

The fuel doesn't ignite at "low" temperatures, one reason is because the whole airplane leaks fuel until it's at an high enough speed. At that point, maybe because of the surface temperature, or the forces it tackles at Mach 3+, the whole thing becomes airtight.

At least, that's what I remember.

> Why do you think that reading in general is good?

Attention span. For me, anyway.

I read LOTR as a kid in about 10 days. I tried re-reading it a few years ago and found I just couldn't keep my attention on the words for that long. Like social media and the mobile phone had rotted my ability to keep my attention on a single thing for hours.

I uninstalled social media (for other reasons, primarily mental health) and stopped using the phone so much, and managed to finish Wheel of Time (finally!).

Reading is good for the attention span, I think.

Not at all. I think Indie Game The Movie took a lot of liberties to show him a certain way. I think the stress of it all got to him and now he does other things. I’m more aquatinted with the programmer Renaud from back in the days. I think the media loves a juicy meltdown story and tried to make him a scapegoat for the indie game industry going mainstream.

Indie games not on magazines says more about the indie games at the time, nothing more. How many times you going to feature Jonathan Blow?

Was Phil Fish insufferable? I don’t know, never met him. Did he say some things that were not in alignment with my worldview? Yeah, sure.

I do think Fez, the game, the wonderful spectacularly clever game, was the indie equivalent of a Mario brothers hit.

The void I think you speak of was when XNA died, MonoGame wasn’t quite there yet, people jumped to Unity and it took them awhile to get up to speed in it. Others like me went off and wrote their own engines and stuff, others joined the ranks of the studios.

I think Phil made the best game he could. That’s all that matters. Everything else is superfluous.

Going further into Google’s mismanagement of their products, I used to be all in for anything Nest, even though we’re also part of the Apple cult. We bought everything: the thermostat, cameras, fire alarms, and Nest Secure: their security alarm system. They had a sale on Nest Secure and I thought that they were being aggressive on subscriber acquisition. I was extremely wrong. It was actually a scammy fire sale since they ended up cancelling the Nest Secure product line one month later. To add insult to injury, Google wouldn’t even refund me my money. I had to go through my credit card to return and repeatedly dispute the charge from Google’s Store (already returned / RMA’d the product since it was also defective).

Needless to say, we are no longer invested in anything Nest related including the hubs. We even cancelled our YouTube premium subscription because of this mess. Now, we are completely all in with Apple’s ecosystem. We will never trust Google again for anything beyond their free services.

To be fair, Google is slowly starting to realize their marketing and product management missteps given how they handled stadia. Still, we’re not coming back.
> Mathematics is a description, not a prescription.

But are you sure about this? If mathematics were not prescriptive then we should expect to see some evidence of that. So far nobody has demonstrated the existence of phenomena that contradicts the equations of physics. Usually we would call such phenomena "supernatural."

It's possible in theory that nature doesn't have to obey mathematical laws. But if there's no evidence for it and if it doesn't explain any phenomena, then what is the argument for holding that particular belief?
Math is rational, therefore math is real.

Because ℚ ⊂ ℝ of course, but it is also not that far off from the conclusion of the book in that "math is real because it is an idea and ideas are real". In a non-mathematical sense, rational means "based on reason", and reason is the power of the mind.
