Seems like a matter of degree.

If taken to an extreme then nearly all parameters can be made into unique types. Not just measures, but pixel height measures. Not just pixel height measures, but help panel pixel height measures. Not just help panel pixel height measures, but settings help panel pixel height measures and so on. This may seem like a great way to keep everything well sorted, but ends up being an unhelpful mess that is difficult to maintain. So the question is how exactly in a situation is best to define types, not whether or not to have them or to make them static or whatever else.

And why exactly do you need types in the first place? Lots of projects are messy and involve teams and have work handed off to developers on a regular basis. In that kind of context which is quite common types can be a life saver. There are also short term one person projects that have a high expectation of all work being thrown away soon after. Isn't defining a bunch of types likely to be a waste of time if there is only a brief development effort which is clear and not expected to ever be touched by teams?

Most one size all solutions like static typing have some contexts in which they are either a complete waste of time or need their breadth to be carefully limited.

I am also in the market, and replacing my small/compact Moto G4 after 7-8 years. Sansung A54 seems to be the most appropriate replacement, based on my criteria.

I just looked up the battery replacement procedure, and it is not horrible for something you want to do once after 4 years.

You definitely do not want the counterparty to have unfettered access to the vehicle until it has been independently inspected. They obviously have good reasons to want access but if your goal is a damage claim you should be very careful with preserving the evidence.
Thanks - we definitely agree that llama.cpp is great. Big fan of their optimizations. We are more or less orthogonal to the engines though - in the sense that we serve as the infra/platform to run and manage those implementations easily. For example, we support running a wider range of models - for example sdxl is one single line too:

lep photon run -n sdxl -m hf:stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 --local

It's really about how to productize a wide range of models as easy as possible.

Or you can just trust your students. Most upper-division courses I took at university gave take-home exams. "Here's the test, come back with it in a couple days, don't talk about your answers with other students".
>To be clear, there is a lot of bias in standardized tests

Is there? I'd say that there is very, very minimal amount of bias in them.

>When I teach I make my students do projects. The projects are far more important than the single test I have

Projects are better, but you cannot do them at scale and compare them.

It depends a lot on what kind of chemistry lab one works in. Having worked at in fluorescence microscopy in my MSc, then at Canada's Nanotechnology Research Centre & at Xerox's Research Centre in Mississauga, and later working with liquid crystals at TU Eindhoven I've had the joy of seeing some incredible colour in the lab. There's so much information which can be encoded spectroscopically, which is one reason why nanoparticles make for such useful probes.
> Vim is the only editor you get faster with time.

Vim is based solely on shortcuts. When I discovered that and played around a bit, I felt numb and a little stupid, having not learned the shortcuts (called Vim language) much earlier in my career.

> The Vim Language (and Motions)

Vim has a terrific language or grammar behind its shortcuts. Instead, remember a thousand shortcuts; you can learn a couple and combine them. This has nothing to do with the editor yet; they are universal and available in other editors as well.

> Vim is the only editor that optimizes editing text instead of writing from a blank page.

When you launch Vim, you are not typing what you click on your keyboard as you are not in the “insert” mode that you know. Instead, the normal mode you are in lets you do the commands.

> Why Neovim?

Today, there is even a newer version of Vim called Neovim. Super popular. Compared to Vim, Neovim uses Lua, an actual programming language, to configure and extend Neovim. This makes writing plugins and configuring Neovim easier compared to Vim native Vimscript.

> Learning Vim is hard

I also love learning new things and, even better, under the umbrella to make me more productive. But as many of you might have experienced, the hardest part is to get started. The initial learning curve is very steep .

> When you should NOT learn

Suppose you prefer to avoid fiddling and optimizing your workflow or if you do not write or code for a living. You can start with your current editor and activate Vim mode. It will save you a lot of frustration, trust me.

You've failed to make a concrete point without realizing it. The point is the effect of technology. So, you've given an x(2) datapoint. Where is your x(1)?

You haven't even been explicit about it but the only presupposition that makes a point for you is that x(1) is, "of course", less time than now, by virtue of the fact that we spend some hours a day doing sport & leisure.

Which, btw, is demonstrably false. Almost all anthropological evidence/studies point towards us having much less time now in human evolution, only losing to the near-fascist peak of capitalism in the 19th century due to the unchecked boom in power from the industrialists. But without that one outlier, we "have to" spend more time working now than ever before. We objectively have less leisure time.
Your premise is wrong.

What I don't get are these price tags.

My last flagship phone was a Google Nexus 6P where the base model was $499. Amazing phone, too bad after 3 years it had a battery issue but the manufacturer gave me a new one.

But the thing is: it was $499.

That was the greatest thing about the Nexus lines - good hardware (maybe not the latest SOC) with regular updates and a good OS experience. I miss those phones.

Google with the Pixels went full goofy mode. I'm not paying 1.140€ for a phone. I have a Huawei P10 that's still running smoothly, just the battery is getting tired... so maybe ill get one of those Pixel 6 Pro :)

But Google pushed away a lot of the Nexus user base, who were hyped every year for the new Nexus.
Yes, I think you are talking about light-sheet microscopy. This tries to illuminate a thin layer and then images with a 2D sensor like in a normal digital camera. This is often a monochrome sensor, and extra metadata records what kind of optical filters were in place. A multi-channel image would then have separate planes captured with different optical band-pass filters. You need metadata to know how a set of planes relate to each other, whether shifting through space or changing filters or just measuring the same configuration again at different time points.

There are also confocal "laser-scanning" microscopes which effectively illuminate a single point in space and image with what is effectively a single monochrome pixel sensor. In this case, the raw signal is pretty much a time series like you might imagine with digital audio. You need metadata to tell you how the optics were being shifted around, to interpret each sample as representing a point in space at a particular time and with what filters.

Normally, the first round of interpretation is done during the initial file save, packing measurements into a file format that still expects planar, rectangular pixel arrays with a regular grid spacing for the neighboring pixels. You pretend the whole image plane was captured at a time point, but it was really measured sequentially somewhat like a cathode-ray tube displays an image one pixel at a time. A session might produce many such planes, and metadata is still needed to understand whether these planes represent the same plane observed over time and/or parallel planes spanning a volume and/or different channels of the same plane.

On the other end of the spectrum, there are slide scanners which image a much larger stage area by shifting around a 2D camera and taking many overlapping images. So a 2048x2048 sensor might be used to produce a 100,000 x 60,000 pixel image plane. Each sub-image would record its position within the stage area and these do not necessarily line up at precise multiples of image pixels. There might also be gaps where the scanner first detects the overall shape of specimen(s) on the slide and then plans a set of images to cover the specimen while skipping over the background area. This sparsity saves time for imaging as well as storage and transfer times by skipping empty areas.

Looks like the minimum take-off runway length is just around a mile: https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/94671/what-is-t...

A mile of roadway costs ~ $1M to pave: https://www.roadbotics.com/2019/12/18/how-much-does-it-cost-...

Unless they pave 1 mile of runway to accommodate this, I anticipate this going pretty poorly. A quick search prices A320s at around $100M, seems worth the effort.
In what way was the Huawei better? Not disagreeing, I myself regretted upgrading to the Pixel 7 from an S10e. Screen, portability, and speaker quality were all downgrades.

And wasn't the whole play store debacle part of some US ban on Huawei? Something outside of Google's control?
SC2 patches to an older version if you load an old version. Then patches back to current version when you want to play again. It requires the game to restart -- and while SC2 has a feature where you can watch a live replay with your friends (by all joining the same game which is hosted as type "replay") -- that "watch replay with others" feature only works with replays which were created in the latest version because only the latest version of the client can connect to the multiplayer servers.

I'm not sure if the older patches are hot-downloaded on-demand when you load an old replay, I think they actually might be -- but I don't know.

You can also "resume" a replay from any point and you and a friend can take over the game from that point. I think Harstem (both a professional player and a big streamer/ YouTuber) has a few YouTube videos where he explores a famous game where one pro player "had clearly lost and had absolutely no chance to win" but the losing player stayed in the game for a really, really long time and people were talking about whether and to what degree that was "unsportsmanlike" (similar to not resigning in a clearly-lost chess game). Harstem would take the losing side at the point in time that was generally agreed to be "lost" and some of his viewers of various ability levels and IIRC he beat all of them.
7 years of support is probably the single, most noticeable improvement in the Android ecosystem in years now.

Also, the temperature sensor in the Pro, if it worked as expected, should be a cool addition.
Second question. If the claim that one of each three Afghans have problems with drugs is true, there is a fair statistical possibility that at least one of this men have skin blisters, kidney problems, chronically infected wounds that take ages to heal, lung problems, and poor health... just because a past history of drug abuse.

This particular set of symptoms can be found in people poisoned, but also consistently in any committed heroin addict all around the planet. Every single one of them.

This fact should be taken seriously to anybody trying to investigate this problem. There is a deafening background noise in the poor health variable just because the average level of health in the whole population was abysmal before, and this noise must be sorted out.

> I know my comment won't likely change your mind

You make no real argument. You didn't dispute any of my points. You didn't even attempt to show how good your character or judgement were, so that I might respect you as a person and maybe defer to your own judgement. You might have preached over-caution, which isn't fundamentally flawed as a concept, often just too expensive to consider.

No, you dug into the comment history, quoted something without even giving a hint what it was about.

Of course you won't change my mind. Minds should only be changed carefully, after new information is presented, or a new way of thinking about difficult problems is illustrated.

Most ICE's don't have the torque to overcome the brakes. But EVs definitely do which is the reason for their rapid acceleration from standstill.
The Pro gives you access to full res RAW images from each sensor which are all 48mp (on the Pro, not sure about regular), not accounting for digital crops, which are 12mp center binned.

As a sidebar, you're all over this thread with negatively framed and inaccurate musings on features, so I'd recommend you give the product page or critical reviews a more serious look rather than letting other people do the work for you by correcting.

This kinda feels like how after an auto accident, if the car needs like 15k of body work and the frame is warped, but not enough to total loss it… and they try and repair the car, but afterwards there’s always little things wrong… alignment gets slightly off, weird creaks and squeaks you never had before, sudden phantom electrical issues. I’m not sure id want to ride in a plane where they “cleared out all the mud and straw” from the engine and they say it’s good to not be refurbished.

There is no JATO option available for the A320. There is, however, a "high flotation" landing gear option with 4 wheel bogeys, which was only purchased by Air India, instead of 2 wheel bogeys that the majority of A320s have. However since Russia is under embargo, it seems unlikely that they would be able to get parts and Airbus support to do this kind of modification, and it is probably unneeded if they wait for the ground to freeze.

No, it's the other way around. You can tell because many many communities now and in history have been highly functional while being broke, but every community full of criminals is broke (which is so obvious it sounds strange to even say).

This demonstrates that criminality/social dysfunction causes poverty, not the other way around.
It's usually on the specs page, but I'm not going to defend the 3 years of support older Pixels had because it's bad. It was a problem on all Android brands (some haven't improved yet).

With this said, updates on Android are different from iOS updates. Things like the browser, camera, gallery, etc, are updated via the app store, so your Pixel 5 still runs the latest Chrome and will continue to do so for years. They can also update system components (media engine, bluetooth, etc) via Play Store updates. Many new features (covid app support, earthquake alerts, etc) are backported via the Play services. On iOS all this requires a system update, on Android it doesn't.

This new Pixel 8 has 7 years of support, which is in line with the 6 or 7 years iPhones get. At least from now on Pixels should be as good as iPhones.
> The devops answer to complexity is always more complexity.

I don't think this is a valid take. The main responsibility of DevOps is automation. You cannot automate without writing code, which by definition means introducing complexity. You either introduce complexity by writing low-level scripts, or by adopting a tool/framework which allows you to write high-level code by hiding the low-level code in their entrails.

I feel your comment implies that DevOps mindlessly adds complexity, when the truth of the matter is that it greatly simplifies everything at the expense of surfacing all the complexity that forced the world to treat all the cattle as fragile little pets.

I've wondered about this myself. It's not just grocery scanning-- my parents used to get a bunch of bills in the mail every month, and send out a bunch of checks to pay them. It's stunning to think about how many people were needed at every step of that pipeline to make the whole thing work. All of that's automated now, and you can find similar things in many industries.

That should have freed up lots of people to handle the special cases that fall through the cracks of the automation, but they're nowhere to be found.

This was my first thought as well. Curious to see if it functions similarly or within a certain tolerance of one of those much more expensive FLIR temp gauges you see laptop reviewers use.

These early adopters are paying for their lack of bookkeeping the same way someone who kept a similar amount of trail-less cash out of the bank would. It's hard to find sympathy for that kind of glibness, especially when crypto actually can be traced back still under most conditions - assuming your bank didn't lose their records from the time, you could show a purchase and vague value increase over time, and accompanying account statements would resolve any AML concerns.
