> "In construction, you hire a general contractor. Why is there no manufacturing equivalent of a general contractor?"

Houses are much more similar to each other than products. If you've built a few houses, you can probably find many more customers who will want similar houses. Most people don't care if their house is essentially the same as somebody's on the other side of town.

But a new product must offer something that's not found in the existing products on the market. If it doesn't, then there's no reason to go to all the effort of getting it manufactured — customers could just buy the existing products where all that investment was made already and is largely recouped.

So an industrial design product is more like the houses you see on the "Grand Designs" TV show. Each of them represents a dream and a vision, and usually there's a lot of trouble and blown budgets on the way to the grand finale where the family finally gets to sit together by the fireplace in their unique creation. ("Grand Designs" doesn't show the dream projects that fail miserably.)

It’s not always easy to find a mold wizard at short notice. Things in hardware space are more word of mouth and relationship based. And as others said you don’t know what you don’t know.

I think this is just nostalgia talking.

My first SNES games, Super Mario World, is a 5 hours long game, 9 if you are going to 100% it https://howlongtobeat.com/game/9387

And I did beat it back then. Not a super complicated game.

What I didn’t remember though and only looked up recently: the MSRP was $60-70 https://imgur.io/khmhfoA

Today that would be like $120-130 for a 5 hours long game https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ But honestly nowadays even $60-70 for a 5 hours long game would be atrocious no matter the nostalgia factor.

Made me think why my parents only bought a game for me three times a year (birthday, christmas, summer vacation)

Its not incincere if you actually find something interesting. And believe me, there are interesting things in everything. Every time ive dismissed something as not interesting (astrology, tarot etc) it's closed off parts of my relationship with people. Sure I thought they were dumb superstition for dumb people. They can immediately tell that from my body language. It's almost as though having that kind of attitude about anything is unwise.

Turns out when I get them to tell me about it without judgement, and show enough humility that they open up to me, they get excited about the things they love, and then you can't help but be a bit excited too. You get a better sense how what they think and how they think, which usually leads to genuinely good bits.

There is that. But this thing isn't that bad. All the motion is slow. There are no gyros. The precision requirements are modest. It's only 2 1/2D; it's a vertical component stack. There are no diagonal shafts or long, odd-shaped levers. It's not power-limited to the degree that a clock is. Everything is statically driven; there are no components that depend on inertia, which is appropriate for an aircraft system. It doesn't have wheel and disc integrators, which depend on friction and are touchy. This thing is all gears and cams, which are well-behaved. As the original article points out, it performs a simple computation which is a well defined function of the current inputs.

I've seen the ground-based mechanical computers that controlled a Nike missile, and those are similar technology as this but much more complex.

I've restored century-old Teletype machines, and those are more complex than this thing.
Now, those really did require mechanical genius to design. All the good Teletype machines were
designed by two people, Howard Krum and Ed Klienschmidt. It took a long time, decades, to get the core design right, and even Siemens, which built their own variation, did not redesign the core decoding mechanism. William Burroughs designed the first really reliable adding machine mechanism, and Burroughs dominated that market for decades. Burroughs had to design by scribing lines on zinc sheets; paper drawings didn't hold dimensions accurately enough. Ottmar Mergenthaler's Linotype design barely changed over a century, being better than both its predecessors and successors.

Those guys were mechanical design geniuses. This Bendix device is a good, workmanlike design, but not in that class.
You are right, it is faster,cheaper and absolutely possible to take the existing enclosure and modify it. OEM enclosure suppliers will gladly add or remove a few openings on their design for a few thousand. They will modify or build a new mould just for your new product, and it works just fine as long as PCB can be designed around their enclosure.

Another victim of modern tech acquisitions. I hate it. I hate seeing another service potentially dying because it was bought out by a big tech company that actually didn't give a rat's ass about the service. Google has done it to so many great services, some of which that I really loved. The worst thing about Bandcamp is that it's a platform for smaller artists to sell their music, which affects them in a way other tech acquisitions don't.

Also, what?

> “Based on its current financials, Bandcamp requires some adjustments to ensure a sustainable and healthy company that can serve its community of artists and fans long into the future,” says a statement provided by Songtradr chief marketing officer Lindsay Nahmiache. It says the company will be extending job offers to Bandcamp staff over the next few weeks as the sale is finalized.

Since when does Bandcamp have financial issues? Or is it just not profitable enough and now Songtradr wants to squeeze it for all they can?
And even then it's probably still not perfect since you're sending to a framebuffer instead of controlling the beam directly, which adds at minimum 1 frame of latency. (Unless there is a "real-time" way to send a picture over HDMI)

> But that problem exists for any C project that uses an external library. If the library defines something that the project already uses, then the project will not work.

For libraries, yes, but we're talking about why the standard didn't do it.

The standard did not want[1] to reserve keywords that current programs were already using.

A library that conflicts on keywords will only break with those programs that use it. A standard that conflicts on keywords breaks all programs in that language.

> In my mind that's not a problem with the decisions taken by the author of the article, it's more of a symptom of C's limitations.

One of the constraints of taking decisions is to work within the limits existing framework - if you're avoiding the alternatives that don't break, then it's the decision-makers bug, not the frameworks.

The framework has limitations, widely published and known. You make decisions within those limitations.

I grew up drawing a lot and doing a lot of stuff on paper for thinking so it's natural for me to solve harder/more complex programming problems on paper before writing up the code. It helps me wrap my head around it.
> (size)(sizeof(x)[y])

Actually, and this is probably surprising to many, this is equivalent to

(size)(sizeof ((x)[y]))

sizeof is not a function but a unary operator, and indexing (as well as function calling...) binds stronger than the sizeof operator. It is not a function, not even syntactically! Hence why I strongly prefer putting a space after the sizeof keyword, and to not use parens for the operand unless needed.

https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/operator_precedence

So the "correct" way to define the macro is

#define sizeof(x) ((size)(sizeof (x)))
> No program should every have variables names according to [a-z][1-9]+ pattern, except perhaps loop indices - and not even then.

What's that got to do with not breaking existing programs?

Yeah. As a kid who spent a lot of time playing games but just wasn't very good at them, I'd pore manuals to look at levels that I knew I'd never reach, and not for lack of trying. I was amazed the first time I played a single player game on the PC (forgot what) and was actually able to see the end! Unless you're into speedrunning, playing the same levels over and over just isn't fun. It's frustrating
> Because C's precedence rules are damn complicated.

This particular part is not actually complicated: the postfix operators bind the most tightly, then the prefix ones, then the infix ones. (The last part is quite messy, though.)

So (int)x[y] parses the same way as, for example, *p++, which should be familliar to a C programmer.
Typedefs and variable namens don't live in them same namespace, do they?
Took Lisbon to Donostia-San Sebastián before Renfe canceled it in 2020. Basic hostel-like sleeping experience, but really nice and something that should exist.

I actually do think it would be harder to recreate it, because you have to remake the whole supply chain, and it's several layers deep of sole suppliers that did already exist when it was originally developed.

Every practice can be abused. If you are thinking like this, is there any process at all which doesn't have negative unintended consequences? Or in which the benefits outweigh those consequences?

Anecdotally, we started doing mini-demo's in the daily standup, sometimes we even show some code. This works really well for us, but it requires some maturity to keep it short and useful.
This is me. For me, it's not about the next day, but exactly about that "nothing can happen" feeling - everyone is finally asleep, no one has any expectations towards me, nobody will be calling me (it's night, it's rude to call people at night), nor will they be texting me (they're normal people, they're already in beds, sleeping). It's the only time my body is able to relax a little. It's the only time I can think about things, without interruptions and the nagging feelings I should be doing something else.

I tried, I tried really hard to give it up, but I can't. Now, with small kids in the mix, the mornings are not even an option.

This is what "revenge" in "revenge bedtime procrastination" is about. That feeling that it's the only time that's actually yours, the only moment of actual autonomy in your life. Everything else is driven by others - working a job, running errands, being there with your loved ones. When it starts feeling like an unending stream of obligations, those few hours late at night are a form of defiance, showing the middle finger to the universe, reclaiming some time for yourself.
Agreed. The faster you implement and correct the better it becomes. It's quite improbable that you'll catch a logical error in writing and not catch it while coding it up. It's also quite unlikely that a sketch of your plan will help you more than a debugger will.

It depends if you have a cameraman or not. If you don't, and you're walking away from the camera, it's probably best to leave it on and hope it tracks you.
The distinction is really important. This means that Dell for example is already at this metric, as all their laptops are opened with a few screws and their repair tech just swaps boards and sends the old one for RMA.

But in practice this also means that given parts availability, the devices can be successfully fixed by consumers. as an IT guy who worked in a lab full of dell laptops, i sometimes did the odd repair and dell would just send me the part overnight, i'd swap the part and put the old one in the box and a courrier would pick it up day of. Say what you will about the quality of their computers, but their repair program is extremely efficient for the consumer, and because they won't spend too much money training proximity technicians, they engineer their products to be easily fixable.
Java uses exactly the same, and has a huge developer mindshare. While rooted in historic accidents, it's well-established.
Yes they can, I saw them in the video we are discussing, my screen showed me smooth pixels instead of blocky ones even though I don't have a CRT screen. Of course it isn't perfect, since my screens doesn't have infinite resolution, but it is good enough. Nothing stops a filter from getting the exact same result as taking a picture of a CRT screen.
I didn't even find it and resorted to searching the in App store for it.
Well they can become big and turn into utilities...think electricity, water, gas, post office etc.

Thanks for pointing that out, I never noticed that setting. I just tried to launch an EC2 instance looking for this setting and here's what I found.

> A credit specification is only available for T2, T3, and T3a instances. Selecting Unlimited for the credit specification allows applications to burst beyond the baseline for as long as needed at any time.

So that would mean Unlimited is not a setting available for T4g (ARM instance) and therefore may explain inconsistent behavior in the ARM instance.

What "others" are there except Microsoft Windows and Linux - both also having plenty users here saying that they see those OSes as ahead of Apple? Seems to me that at best Apple is on par, not someone to celebrate above others.
I'd argue it's even more valuable to learn to code without paper. Many of us formed habits of thinking with paper in school and freeze up a bit in front of the screen. I think it's better to work to eliminate that freezing up than to accommodate it.
With unsigned you can actually check for overflow yourself very easily

z=x+y; if(z < x || z < y) // overflow

And bounds checks are just a single comparisons against an upper bound (handles both over and underflow)

size = x + y;
// or
size = x - y

if(size < bound) // good to go

Prior to C23 (stdckdint.h) its very error prone to check for signed overflow since you have to rearrange equations to make sure no operation could ever possibly overflow.

The TLDR; version of this is the progression from amateur to expert: 1/ controls are set wrong in the first place, 2/ computer changes controls during the shot but it's distracting and obvious, 3/ controls are set right in the first place and everything looks good and consistent, 4/ expert modifies the controls mid-shot (and the shot requires this) and it looks awesome because everything is changing which allows the shooter's expertise to shine through.

I’d say the opposite. People who criticize those who don’t like Twitter are just virtue signaling in the opposite direction and are just ignoring the obvious red flags of the new Xitter leadership:

- the policy of suspending accounts that link to competitors like mastodon or threads
- the secret throttling of traffic to sites with viewpoints that Musk doesn’t like (eg NYT, substack)
- raising lawsuits against those who publish negative reports about Twitter (Ie the ADL)
- trash talking former employees of Twitter
- refusing to pay contractual severance packages of former employees of Twitter
- the removal of headlines from external URLs (probably done to prevent users from clicking out of the app)
- displaying ads that aren’t labeled as ads
- using spammy low quality ad networks
- putting even the most basic features of the API behind a paywall that starts at 100 USD a month
- the subjective yet real change in atmosphere of Twitter. You don’t have to be around long to notice an increase in the number of trolls and toxic white supremacists who will jump into your threads.

The zeitgeist was already on the fence about whether they wanted any single company to have so much of their data. But Musk has made it pretty clear that his business and ego is more important than being a company that independent thinkers and conscious users want to be tied to.
I think this is easy to dismiss as a concern by simply reversing it: why do you think companies hide these fees?
