It's a little bit simpler than anything you will get in an statically typed language. It works for integer and floats of any size. It even works for lists!

You can't do that in a statically typed language without a ton of code.
Maybe most are not earnestly textbook racist, but many are "based" to the extreme and end up earnestly supporting racist policy (even if they don't see it that way).
When Android is the only real alternative "just don't buy iPhones" isn't a very compelling argument. Android has tons of problems and likewise, the only alternative users really have is the iPhone. Consumers need more than two options if the free market is going to be effective.

Great feedback - thank you! :-)
That looks nice. I like the Material You look and feel and UX. I want to try it.

Can I install Chrome OS as simply as I installed Ubuntu? With a USB drive and a friendly install process (on a separated partition on my SSD, my main OS is Windows 11 now).
A standard of truth is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Myself I would say we assemble information based on the limitations of the body we exist in. For example gravity is important to us because if we disobey its laws we may very well die.

Embodiment and multi modal AI will likely provide such filters or limits to AI in which it can derive truth.
Agreed! Depending on your definition of 'modern society', I would say that pretty much all of those complex problems have been around for as long as humans have found a way to organize.
I pre ordered it before .app was available as a TLD and bought it on day one of availability. I've wanted to build this for a looooooong time :-)
One might then ask: why not just let the user click a button in the browser to see the page, without jumping through all those hoops? How does increased human toil make it better? (Spoiler: it doesn't)
> No one spams racist garbage despite not being racists because they want to create chaos and are fishing for a reaction.

Sure they do: they're called "trolls". That's not to imply that no 4chan users are racist, but the claim that "no one" would do it without being racist is absurd.

Counter Arguments has a fantastic video about this.

It's like a good fit for a job. If the school is not looking for many CompSci that year, they will pass. But if you are a history buff and the history department needs another declared major, you're all set. And your High School unfortunately really mattered then, and it matters even more now, especially with SAT scores disfavored. Also if you live in Mass vs Texas, because they likely have quotas for state residents, international, etc. And they pull first from magnate high schools and private schools, up to a third of their acceptances so I've heard. Currently it is smart to apply to more schools if your parents can afford it, as it increases the chance of a 'lucky strike'. And up at that level, much of it is luck.
> as long as you’re not talking about silicon valley salaries, which most Americans aren’t

Since WFH became more common, high salaries have spread across the US. Several members of my team are earning $250k to $400k (depending on their level), and are scattered across the US, and many are living super-LCOL cities. For example, one guy (who makes over $350k) lives in Utah, and around the start of COVID he bought a large house with a lot land surrounding it, for (to him) a measly $270k.

> There are also definitely juniors in the US making $60k (and probably even less).

Nobody should be making that little in the US. $120k is the minimum for a software engineer in the US, regardless of location. If a SWE is earning less than six figures in the US, they're certainly being swindled.
I was trying to do something with delegates in C# but couldn't remember what the various bits were called since it's been so long, so didn't have the magic words for Google to work. ChatGPT sorted me out with my vague question and one followup.

Ultimately, I would like to see more about the other side. If generative AI can make blog spam, then I think it can recognise blog spam. How far are we from implementing a reliable filter of useless spam sites from search results? I don't expect Google has a monetary incentive for this, but maybe someone else does. But from my story above maybe "search" is a thing of the past and for functional queries, we will just talk to the gatekeeper. Reading the actual words written will only be for leisure.
I like it! Ping me at support@store.app if you want to stay tuned and provide feedback on this feature after launch.
i don't use any of these for these reasons and other reasons. These leaders have proven they are evil. But perhaps in other cases there is a difference between evil thru general incompetence and evil thru competence.
> I need a reminder from time to time that the internet has become a dumpster fire

The internet was always a dumpster fire. 4chan is old, toxic forums are even older. That is part of the package.

What made it cool was the freeness and gems, and the little adequately moderated niche communities. I would argue the bigger problem is that the internet became siloed, bland, soullessly moderated by corporations who don't care, and excessively spammy.
Okay, if we're going to go that far beyond the realm of physics, perhaps we could consider my hypothesis that the star was obscured by a giant, invisible unicorn?
Thank you for the kind words! And your feedback has been noted with our team, keep it coming! :-)

> the human method results in fewer routine hallucinations.

I'd love you to produce data to back this up.

My guess is that you are wrong, on the basis of how often I discover that I'm full of shit and how often I discover other people are full of shit.

Humans are built for being wrong just as much as being right. We wouldn't have such complicated institutions and social structures built around controlling for those symmetric capacities if it weren't the case.

Even then, we find ourselves surrounded and overcome by falsehoods of our own design.
Yeah things like that are always the same.

It’s the sellers dream, rarely anyone else has the exact same dream.

If they have a similar dream all they see is the differences and what they’d do differently.
Probably in the future people will only trust sources of info that can't be monatised. If you want to know the answer to a game question you just got to the reddit or discord and ask, since there is no point autogenerating crap for discord when you can't put ads next to it and the mods can remove you.

This is management being absolutely horny for recurring payments. I don't know if business schools are really pushing this idea now or if it's in vogue for some other reason but everybody outside of management hates it.
Interesting. Does that include the UI styling only or also the custom components?

I had a similar experience recently looking some stuff for Starfield. Content farms are obviously switching to LLM-generated (mostly hallucinated) articles and Google seems to be ranking them pretty highly atm.

Kagi's ability to manually downrank/remove those kinds of results from your searches (and their return to flat rate pricing) finally tipped the scales for me for subscribing/switching search.
It is likely to be safer simply because the one driving it is going to be a lot more careful than the average driver.

> I think most of these questions are first and most importantly _hardware_, _money_ and _physics_ questions.

Actually, money (more accurately, cost) is a constraint instead of a resource. S3 is known for its low cost, and S3 can easily dote out a 70% discount to its large customers and still make a profit. So, an interesting question is how to build an low-cost object store/

> interconnecting _a lot_ of the fastest available storage

"A lot of" leads to real challenges. Sooner or later you'll find that managing metadata will become a tough challenge. Case in point, Open-source systems often use systems like Zookeeper or etcd or single-node name server with hot standby for metadata management, which certainly won't be able to handle the scale of S3.
Meh, be racist in an on-the-nose and obviously dumb way, like 4chan is doing here (whether intentional or not), and you get the opposite result: You make racists look bad.

In the end some will think it's satire, some won't but will still laugh because it's stupid, and some will get mad.

Actual racists lost, 4chan got a laugh, and outrage culture got played again.
Yeah imagine the rubber! They’d need American drag racing tyres!
Most of the internet is not like this, and most people using AI aren't using it in this way. Sensationalism sells, and media outlets have a financial interest in blowing these things out of proportion to get readers riled up.
Any specific tool you can recommend?

> Also, those higher deductibles are anecdotes of people whose deductibles went up so that other people's deductibles could go down.

This nonsense deserves a separate reply. The level of ignorance surrounding what has happened to healthcare (in the financial sense) in the US is astounding.

The way people got lower cost coverage is that 65 million people were shoved into Medicaid. They then robbed millions of us to subsidize ridiculous plans that would not survive in a free market at all.

However, the most egregious thing is something ideological zealots either know nothing about or refuse to talk about. The fact that Obamacare/ACA represents the largest single private property grab by a government, likely anywhere in the world, in human history.

Quite a statement, right? Back it up!

Sure. I'll let our government speak for itself:

https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/eligibility/estate-recover...

The 65 million people on Medicaid (and growing) DO NOT have health insurance. They were shoved into a loan program and they have no idea this happened to them.

Once 55 years of age, states are required, by law, to recover the accrued cost of the healthcare that person received. That recovery includes being able to impose liens on the real property of the enrollee, etc.

In simple terms: Some large portion of the 65+ million people on Medicaid will have the State take most, if not all, of the value of their homes as payment for medical services rendered.

After age 55, in the US, it is very easy to accrue hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills. Medicaid says "No problem, we'll take your home as payment".

Sure, there are twists and turns to that, however, the law is clear in that recovery is legally required.

Once again, a government that lies to us about what they are doing and then lies by omission again by not disclosing something as important as Medicaid Estate Recovery is criminal. How many people would have agreed to this had they known the government would have the right to attach everything they own to pay for medical bills? Right.

This, again, is why government-run healthcare in the US would not be like it is elsewhere. Our government cannot be entrusted with this.
Who said gettin rid of cars? We just said pricing their environmental and infrastructure costs appropriately, which is much, much higher than it currently is.

The idea that cars bring freedom just happens because many countries happen to have atrocious public infrastructure. As a car owner in a city having a car is 95% of the time a pain in the ass and justifiably so.

Not sure that your generalization is true here.
The OP is confusing things a bit by conflating "yield to maturity" with "interest rate." Yield to maturity is the total return for the bond holder if they hold until it matures. That includes market/auction price, par (redemption) value, periodic coupon or fixed interest payments, and the time to mature. Expressed as a percentage thats "yield rate." That total yield rate will fluctuate on the secondary market based current prices or initial competitive auction prices. In short, for holding bonds you almost definitely care about total YTM and not the face coupon/interest rate.
Huh. How long until they simply change the label from "ad" to "verified"?
Pretty much every gorgeous destination has campgrounds within the park or nearby. At this time of year everything is half empty; there's no need for reservations.

So, if you want to see Chaco Canyon, just drive there! Buy a bag of groceries in some little town along the way. That night, as you gaze into the milky way while eating peanut butter from the jar because you forgot to buy bread to make PB&J, you'll swear it's the best damn peanut butter you've ever had.

After a couple days you'll be ready for a shower, so you head to Santa Fe. Spend a night in that 400-year-old hotel, La Fonda, and get cleaned up. Hot shower and a soft bed. A breakfast spot selling huevos covered in green chile. Buildings made of sticks and mud. Then drive to the next wilderness area and repeat.

Whatever you do, don't overpack or overplan. You'll be fine.
How does this make any sense?

Let’s assume that this isn’t some grift like “we hope they’ll pay more than what it costs us in maintenance” or “hope they forget to cancel”.

Don’t subscriptions only make sense if you have lots of customers? If you only have one customer, if they cancel their subscription, your product is dead. You also can’t amortize your fixed development costs across many subscriptions. How many customers can Lockheed have, realistically?

This just sounds like a Government contract with extra steps (read: extra $$$)

Just think about the opportunity cost of that much money. I am fairly certain that $8T would do any one several of the following things:
1. Covert our Economy to post carbon. Completely. All Nuclear, Hydro, Solar, and Wind.
2. Pull enough CO2 out of the Atmosphere to get it back to carbon neutral.
3. Put a colony on the Moon, and on Mars, along with a new Space Station. (just for kicks)
4. Give every man, woman, and child in the United States a $26,000 check.
So it goes.

I do. I've got a 1650 watt microwave. It's nice being able to reheat things dang quick. And it cooks a mean baked potato in no time!

Loads of recipes I run into assume at least 800W, usually 1,000W. I'd be pretty frustrated with only 600W. I can always run a high power one at less power, I can't run a low power one higher. I'll always take the more powerful microwave.
It may not be your boss/manager setting it, but your work structure is still being dictated by others (e.g. "within constraints if engagements of course").

I saw an article on stable diffusion for Linux and how to set it up with some extra.

It went reasonable for a moment, git this, pip that…

Then as predicable as ever, the Linux pseudo-child sacrifice routines began, some sudo JRE incantation to move JRE version up or down, then some absolute voodoo with piping something or another to some what’s it, then some command line apt deal with a very specific package name and version that you are just supposed to know is the exact one that is quantum linked to the code you want to run.

… I WANT to get away from windows, but learning and remembering all that nonsense that doesn’t make me money is exactly the issue with Linux and I assume the massively autistic crowd that likes that process.
My understanding is that the hardware turned out to use way more power than expected. The whole premise of the design was that the extra registers between logic stages were "free". In the real world, pipelining has a significant power cost.

On the level of entire networks serving multiple end consumers and businesses, I really hope that ISPs get bigger pipes instead of trying to shape traffic based on type. I'm fine with making traffic shaping on a local network a little harder, if it ends up biting those who oppose net neutrality (or want to use middleboxes to screw up traffic in various technical-debt-fuelled ways).
I like the idea and execution. Is good spread the PWA feature of the web to battle the duopoly of native app stores, even if PWA has their disadvantages.

Research is... complicated. I've seen a lot of research, some shows that types prevent bugs, some doesn't. It's all over the place. If you really want me to I can find you some papers. I've read perhaps two dozen, total, maybe 15+, dunno. The methodologies range from "we scanned github" to "we went to a company and had them solve a problem twice" to "we took a curated group of developers, trained them in two made up languages (one with and one without a type system) and let them attempt to solve a complex business problem" - and the results vary, although my recollection is that they are largely "pro types".

The thing is, not everything is going to show up in research results. There are an insane number of variables.

How do you account for developer experience? How do you account for experience within a domain? Experience with a language? How do you account for different type systems? Training with type systems? Complexity of the domain? How do you account for one developer being better than another? How do you account for development methodologies? How do you account for people's moods that day? How do you account for effort?

It's just not something you can easily research. It's extremely expensive just to generate a small study that tries to control for some of these things.

In the meantime, we can use our experience as engineers. We have to make a judgment. We have to form opinions that are biased and subjective.
