I don't think if you instructed someone to make a UI with greyscale 3D bevels it would look as close to NEXTSTEP as Windows 95 was. There's specific things like the source of light being on the top left, etc, which make them nearly identical.
Yup. I grew up and live in Fairfax County. The wealthy DC suburbs have schools that are so far better than the rest of the states (MD and VA). The massive differences between systems makes a state-level comparison far less useful.
On the other hand, it's hard to predict where your product needs to be to find a spark that sets a fire.
Presumably all those people have their food delivered from the farm to their house on foot? If they ever have a heart attack they will call EMTs to run to them with a stretcher and walk them to the hospital? And they built their home and furniture with trees felled on the lot they live on?
And then they'd have sold at the higher value, because the sale price is almost certainly higher than whatever the 409a price was.
not really. It's general purpose, running llama2 70b has been shown to work out to be cheaper if you have a high usage rate. And depending on use case with fine tuning can likely achieve far superior results.

The one thing openAI has that's hard to compete with is a metric shit ton of money and brand recognition.

I agree with you. Buttons were immediately identifiable as such, menus had keyboard shortcuts visible everywhere, all items always looked the same across all apps, and everything was really snappy.

https://www.munkle.it

After recognizing the pretty steep learning curve many users face with Anki, including myself, I started working on munkle.it as a more intuitive alternative. The goal is to create the app that streamlines the flashcard creation process, prioritizing user-friendly design and simplicity, making it easier for learners to dive straight into effective study sessions without the initial overwhelm.
Having driven in the various countries I would say road design is probably the biggest thing. Testing is probably way down the list.

It's not the tech it's the data. As far as I know the data is not freely shared or at the very least there will be custom built models from data you can't get anywhere else.
Say your company hired a SW engineer who had merely taken an introductory programming course on Coursera, and other than that had no experience. And you immediately make him a senior person, and let him define the role he will play in your company.

Oh, and he didn't have to write any code during the interview.

You don't see anything wrong with that?

I think it's fine to hire a person who just took Coursera ML courses and passes the interview, but you would normally position the person to be a junior with senior folks overseeing his work.

>In short, walk or take a tram to your parked car if you need to drive it to the next town.

What does that have to do with what I said?

Without allowing vehicles on roads (and the jaywalking laws that came with it), deliveries to the high-density places where people live , or to city centers, would be limited to what can be drawn on a horse and carriage.

Those laws specifically benefited those people who live without cars.

The high-density car-free life you dream of would never have been possible had your "no-brainer" alternative been adopted - you can't transport that much goods, that quickly, and that often, and that reliably with horses alone.

The fact that nobody could remember the fruit names (better than random chance) implies that at least sound and/or language are not processed, and thus reports of such are false memories.

The fact that nobody could remember the image on the tablet facing the ceiling implies that no actual OOBE happened, and that part is false memory.
Good luck enforcing it. The genie is out of the bottle.
I don't disagree. Still, would you give such a person a senior ML role and let him do whatever work he wants?
I miss being able to tell what’s a button. And what state it’s in.

It is kinda funny that a style that looks like one of those bad UIs a stereotypical doesn’t-know-GUI programmer might have made as a stand-in before the actual designers could make it good, is what’s in vogue. Finally, even I can make a “good” UI! Thanks, flat design.

I think this is a bit too simplistic of a take: there’s no reason you couldn’t have multiple syntaxes for the same AST so that people could work in the syntax they prefer (e.g. C-style, Pascal style, Indentation-sensitive, S-expressions). Textual syntax can be implemented a layer up, if the input to the interpreter/compiler is not text but a data structure. (The true meaning of what people think is the benefit of “homoiconicity”: eval consumes and produces the same types of data)

Yep tho most ppl use microwaves by pressing the "30s" button (I guess it would be labelled 1/2 or 1/3) n times. Other cooking seldom requires time precision < 1 minute, for finicky precise things you usually watch the process and manage it by eye, rather than relying on absolute time.
>There are HUGE racial and gender disparities in the rates of suspension and expulsion[1].

Because there are huge racial and gender disparities in problem behavior. The bleeding hearts don't seem to care about the kids that suffer in a classroom that is being constantly disrupted by these problem kids, many of those suffering being underprivileged minorities. Whatever the solution is to these kids that "need more support not less", the cost shouldn't be borne by the kids that come to school everyday wanting to learn. This idea that society must endlessly prostrate itself to the least privileged is a failed ideology.
I just found out the other day that the official Internet Archive/Wayback Machine extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wayback-machine/fp...) has a mode to automatically archive every page you view. It's pretty neat, and I wish more people would run it to get a more diverse snapshot of stuff into the Wayback machine.

https://github.com/preludejs - bunch of functional libraries for typescript I'm slowly putting together on the side while working on production systems. Have a dozen or two more in the queue locally that need polishing and the whole thing needs to be wrapped with some website and docs.

I want loosely coupled, functional, primarily no dependencies, practical, typescript first (if something can't be expressed in safe ts, it's too dynamic to belong there), easy to use and hackable/extendable packages. If they don't do i/o they need to work from browser ie. from observable, they're all dual esm/cjs.
I avoid Microsoft whenever possible, but I can say that they did a lot of things well with Windows 95.

I remember the pre-release hype of codename "Chicago", and even bought a book about their UI design, even though I was developing primarily for Unix workstations then.

Also, the Win95 widgets look would still be more effective than most desktop looks/skins/themes today. Just modernize with some aesthetic tweaks that don't throw out the baby that works.

Worst legacy of Windows 95, though: the extra keyboard keys where just Ctrl and Alt should be. New keys was a bold move, and made sense for their UI. But crowding my laptop keyboard with keys I don't want has cost me a lot of time for decades after, and made typing less fun.

This is true, I hated out of the box Jira, and I tolerated it after I tweaked it for our org. Honestly, it probably shouldn't even work out of the box. It should just start with a single ticket that describes how to configure it, that you can't close until you configure some ways to close tickets.
This site makes some weird choices.

Calendar: "This GUI doesn't have this feature" -- yes it does. Double click the clock.

Clock: The old clock application is still part of Windows 95, but it's also in the corner.

Address book: Depends on the version of Windows 95. Ones that came with IE3 or IE4 have an address book.

CD player: maybe the floppy version lacked it? But Windows 95 definitely has a CD player.

Browser: CD versions of Windows 95 came with Internet Explorer; depending on the version of 95, it could be IE2, IE3, or IE4.

Desktop themes: Part of the Plus add-on. Most versions don't include it (some did, especially OEMs). Could probably count the Appearance tab of the display properties too.

Logout screen: Windows 95 has it, but you'll have to connect it to a Netware or NT domain to show it.

Good start, but those are the glaring omissions I spotted.

That article contains no actual evidence of COVID-19 brain damage in children. Have there been any large-scale controlled studies which actually show significant effects in terms of decreased academic performance or real damage on brain imaging studies (not just structural changes which may or may not indicate damage)? And I mean studies with proper controls which compared recovered subjects either with themselves prior to infection, or with matched cases who had never been infected. Individual case studies or observational studies don't tell us anything useful at the population level.
Old boats are a HAZMAT nightmare.

Assuming you need to do everything responsibly and above board, you may get paid for the scrap, but you need to pay to remove and dispose of pipe lagging, fuel and lubricant residue, separate and recycle various materials and W.H.Y.

I don't know about the US Navy but if they have to account for the proper disposal of everything in those ships, that's a gigantic task and selling them for a penny may well be an excellent deal.

A tangential thing:

Where I am, on the BC coast, I'm told the old way to dispose of old vessels (including commercial) was to scuttle them somewhere quiet.

There was a startup out here that was offering, for a fee, to responsibly dismantle boats and sort through everything and responsibly recycle or dispose of everything. What the owner would get is a paper trail, especially weigh-bills, showing their ship disappeared in a legal way. I believe it failed because of the cost.

the worst are all the items these days that come with lithium batteries that aren't designed to be replaced. Sourcing high-quality replacements is a pain, getting the correct size requires taking the thing apart and measuring (and half the time these cheap items break during disassembly if they're ultrasonically welded or glued, even with good spudgers and a very experienced hand), and replacements sometimes need to come from AliExpress in larger quantities.

These items are so cheap that they're not worth repairing if you can't do it yourself, so opening up a shop fixing $10 milk frothers for 30 minutes of US labor rate wouldn't be worth it. They COULD use standard size li-ion cells, and indeed I try to buy flashlights that do (and have ironically had a couple of emitters die on >$50 flashlights that have this capability), but it's cheaper to get some crappy batteries down the street at the Shenzhen electronics market and just stuff those in there.

I really hope that the next move from the EU is something to address this. They're already on the case with phones ( https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/24/23771064/european-union-b... ) but so many other small electronics have this problem too. It's basically unavoidable at this point and I hate it.

Big shout-out to whoever required the Apple AirTags to have NORMAL COMMON-SIZE REPLACEABLE batteries. The Tile business model where they were sealed one-time-use electronics and you'd just trade them in was bad / lazy design. And yes; I know some tiles have replaceable batteries now, they still don't work as well as AirTags, and AirTags still don't fit well in wallets, and the other FindMy-compatible wallet-sized trackers don't have the Ultra-Wideband radio that enables the precise locating that makes AirTags so good.

Be careful: it can be dangerous to tie your inner satisfaction with your work, which is not under your full control and also what you need to get paid. You can get burnt out.

Modern humans didn't invent cooking or discover the use of fire, an earlier Homonid did, probably Homo Erectus.

If we're going to trade Wikipedia articles, the one on control of fire by early humans starts: "Claims for the earliest definitive evidence of control of fire by a member of Homo range from 1.7 to 2.0 million years ago".

> "pedestrians would have to be far more careful in another sense as they crossed busy roads of buggies, streetcars and early autos zipping around with no lanes or traffic lights."

In the old days if an early auto hit you and killed you, it would be the driver's fault. Pedestrians were pushing back on cars because they were so deadly; from the article: "The November 23, 1924, cover of the New York Times shows a common representation of cars during the era — as killing machines. (New York Times)". It was automakers who deliberately propagandised and lobbied to shift public perception of blame from the person in control of the heavy machinery in a public place, to victim blame the pedestrian.

> "The modern system evolved because it made sense"

No, it evolved because it was profitable (to the automakers) and beneficial to the rich (more likely car owners) and powerful (white / preferred a country residence and a drive into town, but didn't like a streetcar letting poor black people out to the suburbs). Automakers colluded to tear up Los Angeles' electric streetcar network - the largest on the planet - and scrap it. They were found guilty in court and fined ... $1. That's not because it made sense, that's to make people more dependent on their products.

> "Cars have to follow rules, too, and have to stop at intersections, yield at crosswalks, obey speed limits, etc."

Yet they still put out fumes which affect the residents of the area they drive through, while not affecting the driver inside the car. These fumes kill a 9/11 equivalent of people every 9 months in the UK[1]. They put out noise pollution which worsens the education and health of those around and the noise pollution effects kills someone in Denmark every day or two[2], but the driver is insulated from it. They could have had to be routed around pedestrian areas, living areas, and yield to pedestrians at all times, mandatory park and ride on the edge of urban areas with bus and tram and metro transit in the pedestrianised centers - which would have made sense in various ways and been beneficial for the majority, but inconvenient for the wealthier minority of car drivers. Cars don't obey speed limits in a lot of situations; people drive some combination of the speed others are driving, what they think they can get away with, or what feels safe for the design style of the road.

The USA is up to a 9/11 of car accident deaths every two weeks.[3] Compare the response to that, to the nationwide implementation of the TSA and changes to air travel after 9/11.

Can confirm: The cloud computing fad is well underway to dying...that is why AI is booming. One need only to follow the wall street dollars to figure that one out.

Several very big profile names have recently begun moving back to self-hosted, hybrid, or dedicated hosting solutions.

Cloud computing never was good in terms of value, however, it was only good in terms of scalability. AI solutions built on top of 'the cloud' will always be even worse.

Note that I pay a certain "third tier" cloud provider less than $100/mo total for hosting large websites that would cost me more than 10 grand a month on AWS/Azure/Google...while having better uptime. (the biggest differences? the complete lack of IO and bandwidth charges, and much lower storage charges)

That should tell you all you need about these types of bubbles, but then again, most of us that watched the entire tech field unfold since the pre-internet phase already knew this.
