If I hadn’t gone to study in a reasonably sized city, my only social circle would have far beyond 10% weekly churchgoers (I’d guess roughly half).

My point is: you seem to have grown up in a very church-removed part of the country (if I had to guess either big city or east Germany). That is where your biased sample comes from. It’s most certainly not representative, and if you claim it to be just because you don’t sub select, then you are at best ignorant and at worst intentionally dishonest ;)

Okay but does this actually happen ever?

If you are using Google or Google maps and they mention there is a 711, yeah your location is known.

However, I've been avoiding google search since chatgpt, and outside of a few programming searches, google has no idea what I'm doing. Or at least their ads aren't particularly targeted outside the few programming searches. Haven't really been enticed by the 'learn python' ads in the screen I never visit.

Can't we also look at the source code? I have been happy with my degoogled products that are open source. That can be trusted. Black boxes cannot be trusted.
Yes - it's relatively normal - consecutive cabotage (aka "eighth freedom") means carrying passengers or cargo between two places in another country having started (or intending to end) the flight in your own country. So the MEL-ADL leg would have DOH-DEL-ADL would be an example of that for a Qatari flag carrier.

Cabotage as a whole is pretty unusual outside of integrated aviation markets like Europe. I would be very surprised if Qatar and Australia had an agreement that permitted it. In that absence of such an agreement, it would probably be illegal for QR to sell those tickets.

> “In 1905, [Gilbert] told The New York Times that after he wrestled with the problem for months, the solution came to him ‘like a flash’: He could support both the floors and the exterior walls on a concealed iron skeleton, like an iron bridge standing on end,” wrote Christopher Gray in the New York Times in 1996.

This is a bit bogus since the first buildings constructed this way were in Chicago and the revolutionary approach of hanging a building off an iron skeleton was very widely discussed, even in the popular press. The article even mentions this later on: "Though metal cage construction had been used to create Chicago’s Home Insurance Building in 1885, Bradford brought the technology to New York..."

The article calls Bradford Gilbert "Gilbert" in one place and "Bradford" elsewhere so I suppose expectations should be low.

Not for pure python code; but there's massive advantages for mixed C(++) and Python: I can now have multiple sub interpreters running concurrently and accessing the same shared state in a thread-safe C++ library.

Previously this required rewriting the whole C++ library to support either pickling (multiplying the total memory consumption by the number of cores), or support allocating everything in shared memory (which means normal C++ types like `std::string` are unusable, need to switch e.g. to boost::interprocess).

Now is sufficient to pickle a pointer to a C++ object as an integer, and it'll still be a valid pointer in the other subinterpreter.
Even if we ignore the fact that other manufacturers have it too, you won't lose this Apple product should Apple be forced to open it up. Its very telling you simply refused to answer that point blank question completely and tried to change the topic. I am asking you again, even more point blank: what exactly do you lose if Apple is forced to open up this product and release its driver sources, etc? How does it change anything at all with how the device is already working for you? Why are you unable to give a straight answer to such an extremely simple question?
For me the central benefit is that you can create them in a distributed manner and are not reliant on a central system as a single source of truth for creating your identifiers.

I can therefore easily generate a new UUID in a trusted backend service which just accepts the command received from the untrusted client and then forwards the request for asynchronous processing while returning the UUID to the client. This is a typical architecture and the only change is that I can now create UUIDs which may have performance benefits, depending on the data storage technology of my read models.

If you need to create the UUIDs on the client side to support specific requirements such as offline-first, then I would indeed consider adding some reconciliation which replaces the IDs provided by the client-side by new ones generated by a trusted component as soon as synchronizing takes place.
I've been quite pleasantly surprised by the $250 Chromebook I got from Costco nearly a year ago when my Linux machine's hardware started failing. I originally got it because it was the quickest way to have something for writing emails that wasn't my phone. I ended up quite happy with it though.

It does everything I need outside of heavier duty programming, and I don't do so much of that in my spare time these days. You can code with it; I set up a for-fun Elixir/Phoenix project that I coded mostly on the Chromebook.

I do a lot of writing/communicating and I don't need anything more than what this computer provides.
People were already just asking ChatGPT.

I don't believe there is any such fundamental limitation, especially when you look say two years down the road and don't limit yourself to language-only models or the AI models of today. Already GPT-4 has audio and image input.

Good human programmers today have better abilities and more current knowledge overall than GPT-4. But it's a matter of degree, and a matter of time.

What types of limitations do you suppose? And again, we have to anticipate that these technologies evolve rapidly. LLM is a misleading term in my opinion for a fundamentally multimodal model. And totally new types of models or model integrations will be likely be coming out over the next few years that will make current systems obsolete. Such as combining AlphaZero-type systems with language models.

Stability is solid, but so is Linux's usually. Even the unholy trinity of AMD iGPU + Nvidia Optimus dGPU + X¹¹ hasn't caused any driver issues yet for me.

Usability, YMMV. Out of the box it's okay-ish, but it's hard to improve it. Screenshotting/desktop recording, e.g.: The included tool only does the bare minimum (can't even draw arrows on screenshots), and there's almost no ChromeOS native third-party software to pick up the slack. In many other cases, Android apps or Linux desktop applications can be substituted, but screen sharing is just too borked for screenshotting/recording to work reliably. Meanwhile, Chrome browser addons are limited to Chrome tabs.

According to people at CryptoAncienne (https://github.com/classilla/cryanc), a 25MHz 68030 needs about 22 seconds of maths to handshake a modern TLS server. During that time, most servers close connection.

So on an 1MHz 6502, I think it'd be minutes just for handshaking.

What are the best ways to utilize PEP 669? I’m always looking for two things: a good “time-travel” debugging experience (PyCrunch-Trace seems to be broken for me) and for a way to generate and view large traces (Firefox Performance Profiler can’t open traces that lasted 2-5 minutes because they're too large)

PEP 669: Low impact monitoring for CPython

PEP 669 defines a new API for profilers, debuggers, and other tools to monitor events in CPython. It covers a wide range of events, including calls, returns, lines, exceptions, jumps, and more. This means that you only pay for what you use, providing support for near-zero overhead debuggers and coverage tools. See sys.monitoring for details.

These ultrasonic playback things are depending on specific interference patterns materializing at certain spots. The design of the signals, shape of the space, arrangement and characteristics of the playback devices all need to be seriously tuned for this.

You're not experiencing these ultrasonics with headphones. You're not going to faithfully recreate some ultrasonic interference pattern in a random room with a pair of tower speakers placed in any arrangement. If anything, you're more likely to just make extra noise that wouldn't have been there originally from those interference patterns happening haphazardly and chaotically, coupled with the fact the vast majority of audio gear isn't designed to reproduce ultrasoincs (they're often specifically made to try and not generate them!)

And even then, by recording in the room with the instrument, you are capturing the resulting ultrasonic interference that you could have experienced if you were there.

To add small amount of context, I do also enjoy learning when its not a 'tool' but its a very narrow margin of the medium. For example, i've probably watched every single 3blue1brown video on youtube there is, yet I won't really use any of that. I watch them while I'm eating and any time they come out, as well as a few similar channels.

But this sort of learning is more about the purpose of stimulating my mind with challenges rather than acquiring knowledge.

80% of my time learning is when its a tool, 20% of the time its for stimulation, 100% of the time it is for some meaning other than it being satisfying to collect knowledge and facts, which is 0% of the time.

CPU IO access speed and memory transfer delay, in a world before the advent of DMA.

There’s a reason that game consoles of the era had dedicated “Audio Processing Units” that rendered sound directly from sequencer instructions + a small set of loaded samples: trying to feed “one large continuous sample” (i.e. a raw PCM stream) through the CPU to a DAC, wouldn’t have left any time for doing actual logic. If you compressed the audio, decompressing it would take the whole CPU too.

Sure, CD-ROMs weren’t usually continuous streams of data in the way that audio CDs were; but the kinds of stuff that couldn’t just be usefully fit into a floppy — or a set of floppies installed onto a hard drive! — was usually asset files that were individually large in the same way that PCM audio was individually large, in a way that would still choke either CPUs or RAM. No point in large image files you can’t even display.

There were a few consumer use-cases for random access to individually large files — mostly public databases, of the kind we’d expect to find online today. But people who really needed these, either did use them “online” even back then (by dialing in directly to mainframe database services); or, if they were a more industrial consumer, they got these distributions on tape! These were the first things to be ported over to CD-ROM when CD-ROM drives did start becoming available.

The whole “multimedia” hype took a bit longer, only really taking off once high-quality images and low-quality video were able to actually be displayed on PC (requiring PCs to first achieve display resolutions higher than 640x480; color depths higher than 256-color; at least 2MB of VRAM; and CPUs fast enough for MPEG1 decoding of at least small 100x100 video clips.)
I don't want to be too full of myself here, but I'm a very skilled and highly paid backend software engineer who knows roughly nothing about unicode (I google what I need when a file seems f'd up), and it's never been a problem for me.

If you think both directions are comparable to actual perspectives people have, then it's already clear which perspective is yours.
Both-sides-ism is not some kind of "free points" move in an argument. It's entirely consistent to believe (a) that a "tame" political statement supporting immigrants is acceptable in release notes, while also believing (b) that a cutesy poem defaming immigrants would be abhorrent and unacceptable. No one has an obligation to think that all political messages are acceptable just because they think that some political messages are sometimes acceptable.

Just to take an extreme example, imagine someone put in a note expressing empathy for the families of the victims of a natural disaster in their release notes. The following conversation takes place on Hacker News:

A: I don't really think these sorts of statements have a place in release notes. They don't ultimately accomplish anything or help anyone.

B: I think there's no problem with expressing compassion like this. It's not particularly obtrusive and isn't harming anyone.

You: How would you feel if the release notes had expressed glee at the disaster instead? You would oppose that, right? That means you must also oppose empathetic messages in release notes, to be consistent.

I agree this is on regulators, but you are still victimizing the exploiter. Nobody forced the airline to do this, rather they found this loophole and decided to exploit it. It is entirely their fault as the primary actor.

> I still believe lockdowns were harmful overall (eg including aspects like additional deaths of despair - suicide and overdose, less healthy activities - exercise and socializing etc).

Lockdowns were absolutely harmful - I don't think anyone is claiming otherwise. They were effective in stopping health systems collapsing, which is why pretty much everywhere implemented them when it looked like their health systems were about to be overwhelmed. (cf Italy in early 2020). That would have been catastrophic compared to the harms of lockdown.

In terms of suicides specifically, the evidence is not clear. I've seen studies that indicate suicide rates did not increase or actually fell during the pandemic, e.g. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/eclinm/article/PIIS2589-5... . There were also fewer deaths from road traffic accidents etc. However, there were lots of other harmful effects such as secondary effects from the economic impact.

> Do you know of any good evidence that lockdowns were effective, or are you calling bullshit based on intuition?

There have been a number of studies concluding that lockdowns were effective. I doubt digging them up will convince any of the sceptics in this thread.
