The flipside is that people who were better suited for life in a small town have lost what the others have gained. Life moves fast everywhere now, your friends and family may step into your life at any moment of the day without notice, even though you live thousands of miles away. All of the big city hustle and bustle reaches out and touches people through their phones and stopping it requires people to deliberately and overtly snub people they'd prefer not to overtly snub.
Not the GP, but I recommend reading (or watching lectures based on) the book “Computer Systems: A Programer’s Perspective.”
But they aren't making enormous amounts of money from news content. Google News shows no ads, and never has. I've never seen an ad for a news query on search either, but can't say whether that's by policy or because nobody buys those searches. But it doesn't matter what the reason is: when there's no ad revenue, there's nothing to share.

Also, news sites have control over how their site shows up on Google. If they want to continue being indexed and show up in the search result with just a title and no snippet of the page, that's something they could make happen immediately just by themselves. That none of them are choosing to do so makes it pretty clear that the "people just read the summaries and don't click through to the article" thing isn't a problem in reality.

Basically all EV sales are new EVs and the used EV market is still very hot.

There will be a lot more “cheap” EVs in 5-10 years as the first EVs depreciate and sell for $3,000 type thing.

Maybe Twitch's management effectively prefers 3s of latency at 20x the bandwidth cost of 7 seconds of latency, but I have to admit that it would surprise me.

Twitch is an interactive medium, not merely a video stream delivery platform. Streamers chat with their viewers and play games with them. They run merchandise giveaways based on guessing games. Low latency is critical for these applications.

If a stream viewer sees a ton of people guessing random words or numbers in chat before they even see the streamer mention what everyone’s guessing at, they’re going to have a bad experience, leading to disengagement. Twitch goes out of their way to lower the latency. They even offer options in the client to switch to a lower latency mode, at the expense of stability.
thanks for your constructive feedback
I really, really want O3DE to be successful. I have looked into it some. Right now it just isn't something your average small Unity team could pick up and use. A larger studio with a good established dev team could maybe use it.

The documentation and tooling for O3DE needs a lot of work compared to Godot. The community needs to grow, but in order to do that, they need to improve the documentation and the tooling.

In the end, I want to see both Godot and O3DE succeed, I support both projects, and I have tried to bring O3DE into these discussions. But if I had the time to start a game today, as an indie dev, I would probably choose Godot. But both engines have a lot to offer!

Finally- I really think the O3DE devs (mostly Amazon, and folks complain about Amazon not contributing to Open Source....) are aware of its weaknesses and are trying their best to refactor the code and make improvements to tooling and documentation to make it easier to use. I think it is going to take some time, and I hope they get the support from the community and continued support from Amazon to see it bare fruit. I want to thank Amazon for their many contributions to Open Source, I don't agree with everything the company does, but I disagree strongly with the idea that they aren't contributing anything back.

Citation needed. If you don't have money and aren't willing to pirate, what you can get on the internet is quite limited. There's Wikipedia and Project Gutenberg. A lot of the most reliable knowledge is still locked up in books, because the internet is disproportionately used for entertainment, advertising, etc
US is 14% of global co2 emissions, vehicles are 29% of US emmissions, so US vehicles are 4% of global. I don’t know if I would call 4% a huge percentage but it is certainly significant.
It's absolutely no different than if the actual HTML contained invisible text though.

The patch here would not help security at all. Only using control-x control-e before pasting (so that it comes into a real editor, not directly in the terminal) can help.

I've never had any potential employer look at my GitHub. It was all about the resume, experience, and being able to explain that experience, as well as a technical coding assessment.
JSX specifically is about the "special" syntax (`<div>hello</div>`), without the syntax it's just React (`React.createElement('div', null, 'hello')`)

Jakarta and go-app.dev seems to be similar to React, but in no way similar to JSX.
If you're going for "none os us is smarter than all of us", the flaw in such group decisions is that they are made openly in the group. The first opinion influences the next and so on, and the louder and most persistent opinion gain more weight in the final decision than they deserve. The biases pile up and the quality of the decision goes down.

In order to take advantage of the knowledge of the many, each individual needs to form their opinion independent of the influence of the others. From there you move on to a structured and mediated discussion (i.e., not an adhoc free for all). Of course, participants can change their minds, but they do so based more careful considerations and far less based on the emotions and biases of a traditional group decisions.

See "The Influencial Mind" by Tali Sharot for more details.

Homes are somewhat different because it is a personal annoyance to replace what was lost, and there’s a sentimental value attached to most things which insurance wouldn’t cover. If I show up at the bank tomorrow and make a withdrawal and the money comes from insurance rather than the actual dollars I put in, who am I to care?
I saw that in Taipei for electric mopeds. Spread through the city, there’s racks of batteries ready to go: just grab one, put your empty one in the slot where it’ll charge for the next person and be on your way.

Probably more complex for cars (the weight alone might make usability a challenge), but a cool concept
For political things sure. Now imagine you're explaining how something works on a technical level - like the physics of how induction heating works or the summary of a study where they've twisted your summary to claim the opposite of what the study and your summary actually claims. You go to correct their misinterpretation of your study and are told you are wrong and your edit reverted.
In other news, every field where you have to pay someone to fix your shit requires a level of trust!

You have to trust that your mechanic isnt going to make up some bogus shit to extract money from you.

You have to trust your plumber isn't making up bullshit and overcharging you.

You have to trust your doctor to not prescribe you unnecessary drugs. And your dentist to not toss in a few extra fillings.

Turns out you also have to trust your computer repair guy to not snoop on your shit.
That analogy would work if Github only had one single project. The problem was not the test, but the fact that there was just one single test, and the subject matter and manner of testing were supporting authoritarianism. There was no open competition for talent between multiple institutions. They outsourced brainwashing to parents and teachers.
Sure, so did I (with the exception of that Microscope puzzle). But they made up for the relatively small number of puzzles by cranking up the difficulty in boring ways IMHO. There is a middle ground between 7th guest and trivial puzzles - Myst, perhaps?

Roughly speaking, CPU wants smaller space and RAM wants bigger space. At a high-level take:

* CPU design is the most expensive space due to it having the greatest quality and capability requirements. RAM is mostly just a very, very large repetitive structure, so more space better.
* A CPU fault can be potentially corrected by microcode changes to route around the damage (ie part binning). RAM cannot generally take faults.
* DRAM is simpler to make, "just" a capacitor, but capacitance leaks over time; which, means generating resistive heat in an area that we want as little heat as possible. You could use SRAM (two transistors) but now you have substantially more complex part to fail.
* DRAM quality requirements are much less stringent if you make just bigger cells.
My list of reasons to block all javascript by default grows longer by the day. 90% of websites don't need javascript at all to display the content I'm looking for, about 9% only require first party javascript, and the 1% left usually just gets me to close the tab and go somewhere else.
The article is ostensibly an advertisement for his book, and the idea of reading the book seems tedious after reading this article.

I understand not wanting to spend the time detailing your research showing that China's technological growth lagged after introduction of the Keju in a teaser article. Repeating "I found this data, it supports my conclusion, and China's doing the same thing today" isn't a good alternative.

Maybe the book has a better editor.
The economics for these projects make sense under incentives created by the Inflation Reduction Act. They get a big rebate on the capital costs for the infrastructure, and then get to sell the environmental attributes on the open market.

Environmentalists don't like CCUS, but it is one of the thousand tools we are going to have to use if we are serious about decarbonizing heavy industry.
This sounds like a one of the few good reasons to switch to Wayland, if this can really be disabled.
> The rich are rich because of the compounding effects of wealth. Not that small fraction spent on durable goods.

The less you (have to) spend on goods and services the more you can keep invested to compound.

If 100% (or more) of your income is taken up by paying for necessities (shelter, food, transportation), what do you have to compound?

I only have 10 month working like this, but yes. More linked to the code than to the approach, but sometimes I become easy to get lost on the 'I also need to fix this' and deliver the code _really_ late. My way of dealing with it is simple: at 4pm (I usually stop at 6), I take a 15 minutes break, talk with people (remote or not), make some tea and stuff, recenter myself. Then I check what can be merged into master before 6, scrap the commits I won't use, rebase the rest into one or two commits, then push and ask for review (once it was the '30 minute task' that pulled a lot of other shit, in this case I stopped and called the team lead/PM to redefine the card).

Then if I still have time I do reviews, administrative work and probably end the day there. The nature of our team make that time management suitable.
It’s conflating progressive with “progress”. It’s like conflating functional programming with whether it functions.

Could nobody foresee it? That’s an unlucky bank.
ATM -> retailer -> back to the bank in the evening.

I once made a calculation of whether it is possible to track all banknotes by serial number. There are only 20bn EU banknotes! Fits snuggly in a Postgres DB.

With that, you could detect patterns: Does these guys always withdraws from this ATM and the money is cashed in that other neighborhood? Drug deal. A banknotes suddenly reappears after years? Black money stored in bulk, let’s see who withdrew it. Etc.

Right around 37 minutes in, Brevik mentions that Mike O'Brien (along with Pat, one of the three co-founders of ArenaNet) was the brains behind Battle.net, and then "a few of the guys from [Blizzard South] moved up north during the last six months of development and started making Diablo into multiplayer and integrating Battle.net into the entire thing."

That lines up with Pat's assessment:

> Initially Collin Murray, a programmer on StarCraft, and I flew to Redwood City to help, while other developers at Blizzard “HQ” in Irvine California worked on network “providers” for battle.net, modem and LAN games as well as the user-interface screens (known as “glue screens” at Blizzard) that performed character creation, game joining, and other meta-game functions.
No, and that's a fair criticism. At $68K/year I would think you'd have to consider going down to 1 car for the family if feasible, or do that for several years until car 1 is paid off.

The main point I wanted to bring up with my comment was that San Antonio is just about average nationally wealth-wise, but the original comment I was replying to made it seem like half the population was living in very dire straits.

That's how it is with all the articles on that site, which occasionally reach the front page. I'm sympathetic to a lot of the sentiments but the author pretty consistently fails to actually make any argument beyond "I am the smartest, and I don't think this is good."

We might need to wait another generation or two before Nietzsche's stuff starts making proper sense. I've been feeling that there's going to need to be some sort of a global reckoning between communist and capitalist ways of thinking. The counter-culture movement from the 60's was just too pervasive to go away forever. That movement needed a breather to allow the tech industry to grow as much as it possibly could. If we are going to start seeing the end of growth in tech, a revolution-centric hippie scene could start re-emerging sooner rather than later. Once these issues start playing out, then I think we'll have a better understanding of how the future generations will relate to the idea of nobility. So I'm pretty confident that it won't have very much to do with the purely capitalist notion of "layabout managers."
Am I the only one who uses declarative programming when it makes sense, and $other-type-of-programming when that make sense?

When creating UIs, I haven't found anything better than declarative programming. But in the end, it's all trade-offs, nothing seems to be a silver bullet, UI programming just fucking sucks in general.
>Such comments belong in Slashdot, Reddit and similar internet forums.

Before 2014, most internet reporters, even if they knew HN, they wont name it. Or at best "an orange website". It is as if an accepted culture or a norm for not linking to it. To prevent the site from becoming reddit or slashdot. Somewhere along the line everyone started naming / linking to it.

That is why when ever people ask where to look for high quality information or discussion, I hesitate to even name the few site I bookmarked. Where you would find not only hard core enthusiast but also professional or industry veteran offering their informed opinion.

Sometimes, but not always.

I've been on both sides of this situation. As an engineer I'm always adamant - yep, no way this could be done any faster and please stop pressuring me to just get the number you want to hear. It'll be done when it's done, and it'll be robust and good. Now please go away and let me cook.

But when I've been the manager pushing for smaller estimates, it's been because the business realities were that delivering *something* in a given time frame is critical. And if it requires making a house of cards and cutting corners, well at least we'll have survived long enough to deal with that problem later. And when I've been in that situation I received the usual pushback from engineering - the same pushback I would give in their shoes - that this is a terrible idea, will doom us to fail in the future, and we need to put in the leg work now to avoid future pain.

I've gone back to being an engineer but that experience as a manager has helped me quite a bit when dealing with this sort of divide.
I strongly believe tech interviews should be about seeing _how_ a candidate works and less about _what they know_. Everyone has holes in their knowledge, but can easily be filled by training or on the job experience if they have excellent problem solving skills. Maybe they never needed to know the protocol level but can deliver excellent ux results regardless.

I've started nearly every position in my career in a different domain without prior knowledge, including workflows, protocols and the languages that implement them. I may be an extreme case, but we exist and your process inherently excludes us. I've worked in robotics, consumer electronics, healthcare, fintech (not even in that order, although that probably would have made more sense.) I've delivered in each domain as well as my expert colleagues. But if you asked me to implement a LLM, I'd shug and tell you I don't know how, but I _would_ explain my process for HOW I would learn to.

> Our work with Tensor has never been about speeds and feeds, or traditional performance metrics

Meanwhile, on [1] they say:

> Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are equipped with Google Tensor G3, Google’s fastest, most efficient, and most secure chip yet. Every major component of the chip has been upgraded for enhanced performance and efficiency. Not only has the number of machine learning models on device more than doubled since 2021, but their complexity and sophistication have increased as well. And Tensor is running many of these complex models at the same time.

Sounds to me like it was very much about performance...

The last great version of Oberon, before ETHZ focused into Blue Bottle OS, written in Active Oberon. Which is actually my favourite version in the Oberon family linage.

Anyway Oberon System 3, is a great example of a full graphical single user workstation OS, with component framework (OLE style), with a repl, written in a GC enabled system programming language, supporting both JIT for dynamically loaded modules, or straight AOT compilation.

All of this when PCs still had to deal with Windows 3.x.

Maybe NPC show is also not as funny, but the alternatives are being cancelled by butt-hurt moralists. This is sure true in Germany where "censored" would be the better word for it. I only know the big ones in the US and they were funny at some point, but the ones I saw all suffer from TDS by now. It's weird how people get so enraged by one person to the point they get silly and the silliness doesn't stop when the (media) presence goes away. It looks like a big hug box with a lot of copium junkies.

That's not funny and I don't need to be funny, but I feel like the people in this hug box should be made fun of.

I agree with this mostly. I would love to see the MPL2 used more often instead of the GPLs. I think it is a superior license in almost every way. I also love the Apache and MIT licenses for their own reasons, I don't really see MPL as a replacement for Apache/MIT, more as a replacement for the GPL.
