I don't disagree with anything you said. If you not the comment to which I was replying, I am addressing the specific point that the M1 was a revolutionary boost in performance, which it was not. Apple's Pro stuff (Intel) at the time was a year behind everyone else on specs. When their Pro stuff came out - sorry, but even the M2 isn't "Pro" anything.

What I am doing is comparing top of the line from Apple, to top of the line period. And consistently, Apple is always behind on workhorses, to get work done. They are better in your "light quiet slightly longer battery" category. At 50% more cost. The free laptop from work - I want the most powerful portable thing available. For personal life, now way I'm paying the Apple tax. So - no use case in my life. I do always get my wife iphones and macbooks though. She teaches languages to little kids and I don't want to spend my time helping her with tech stuff, so the Apple tax is worth it. But never for the hardware - just for the walled garden and fisher-price UI for kids.

The Precision is not light, but that's because it's thick metal that you can run over with a car, and extremely durable. No one complained about a thinkpad being built sturdy. For the use case you describe, an XPS with an I7 at the time was super light, got about over 10 hours of battery life if you just did regular office work (no compiling or large data processing), and has similar specs. I used to take that with when I'd go internationally. It absolutely did not get hot - the key was to turn off turbo boost if on battery by setting max CPU at 99%.

The thing is, if we compare pricepoints, you could have a Precision for the cost of an M1, and now you have desktop power on the go. It's not super-light, but it's still light and thin enough to put in a shoulder bag and not get neck pain.
Out of context (and with limited knowledge) comment 3 seems terrifying.
> Imagine that you silently unsubscribed an open-source maintainer from all github notifications!)

Do open-source maintainers forward around their unsubscribe links in practice?

The other problem with email scanners clicking links automatically can be solved without prompting for the email address. One simple solution is: if the link is clicked within a minute or so after sending the email there's a chance the clicker is an automated system. Instead of unsubscribing right away, serve a HTTP POST form with a single "Confirm Unsubscribe" button. Normal users will rarely see the form, automated systems will hesitate to fire off HTTP POST requests.
I'm not sure you are disagreeing with me.

Yeah, this is too far
That is not my experience at all. There are so many small towns studded along the highways and back roads. They're perfect for a romantic getaway or a weekend trip with the family. Fun activities, active downtowns, accomodations for all budgets, etc. Truly a lovely thing.

California especially has a large number of these.

Finally time to upgrade my 2017 i7. For over 1 year the battery meter has said "Service Recommended" and in the last 2-3 months multiple key caps are literally falling off and regularly get jammed while I try to type.

I figure the 16" with M3 Max and 64 GB is a good machine that will last me 5-6 years but I'm not sure if I should pony up for the 2TB storage upgrade.

I just pray this revision won't have some unexpected problems. I'm actually glad it seems to only be a spec bump so I won't be taking on any new tech. Hopefully any issues have been shaken out from the M1 and M2 releases.
I want less powerful pis with more hardware features.

Everyone else is getting onboard battery management and AI coprocessors and stuff, the Pi is busy trying to run on expensive SSDs because for some reason they don't just fix their software to run better on SDs(And lots of apps seem uninterested in fixing SD write issues).

Unless you lived in a windowless shack, you're leaving out some details, because I don't think a residential dwelling with only one point of egress would be up to code. Not siding with the cops, but also can't side with you, because the retelling appears to not include parts that would have allowed you to exit without escalating anything with the person at the door.
I’m sure the author, Ben Davis, must have had an inclination as to what he was going up against with Rodriguez but even if he didn’t, kudos for sticking it out with the fascinating followup.

When your subject is as famous for their tough street narrative as they are for their work then you can’t be too surprised if they feel obliged to react all hood in public. It’s a missed opportunity for Rodriguez though when he could have played his “stay humble my dude” card while… being actually humble. Is he a thug or not? Pick a lane.

The problem with existence as performance art is that we will never know if Rodriguez’ lashing out was genuine, or just another part of his rags-to-riches outsider story. At this level, his posts could just as well be coming from his PR team as from him at which point the furore and performance is definitely taking over from anything this guy does with a pencil. Is Rodriguez’ level of naivety and lack of self reflection evidence of this being his genuine self, or of his PR team’s perfectly formed ideal of how the Rodriguez phenomenon ought to be projecting itself?
Thats one of the things that people forget about social media. It is mostly a younger, inexperienced people who get entertained by new things that people haven't seen before. Its not their fault, they just have not lived enough yet.
If this is actually the first time he's been criticized, the critic may be correct. If he starts getting more criticism and always reacts like a drama queen who has been terribly wronged and behaves very unprofessionally, the people who were fans because he was "nice" may start disappearing.

And that could hurt his bottom line. People there for the drama may not be paying customers. They may essentially be internet trolls.

At least where I am it is still cheaper than alternatives because wages at those options have gone up as well. The exception is family-run stores where wages are kept low by roping in unpaid labour from family or outright exploiting immigrant labour who don't understand labour law or have the language skills to make their case for it.

Not quite. According to the EPA [1], "Emissions is the term used to describe the gases and particles which are put into the air or emitted by various sources." That includes anything, not only CO2. For example, while CO2 is a common emission from fuel-based power plants, these plants (in particular, coal) may also emit other molecules such as mercury, which is more dangerous to human health than CO2. These all fall under the umbrella of emissions.

Even a hydrogen-fueled car has an emission of water, or a "waste product" [2]. And that's the key to understanding it: waste product, which is really what the term emission means.

What I talked about has virtually no waste product and therefore no emissions, though perhaps "no emissions" is too optimistic. The NET Power website says "NET Power’s patented technology captures over 97% of CO2 emissions from power generation", so it's darn good but not "no emission".

not only is outbidding the competition not unethical (as a sibling notes), apple actually is very involved in the early node work etc. a lot of this work is literally done for apple, it is "exclusive games" in the "this game would not have been made without the sponsorship" sense. this literally would not have been brought to market on the same timelines if Tim Apple wasn't signing a couple billion dollars a year to TSMC right upfront.

Apple pays lavishly to support TSMC's early node research, and they get their say in what happens in the R&D process, and very early insight into the node and their say on how it would work for them as they do their rollout. TSMC gets carried through the research phases much faster than their competitors can do, and it's led them to be on an absolute tear starting with 7nm. And they absolutely cannot fill the same level of demand with the same level of R&D funding from any of their competitors.

It's been a healthy, productive long-term partnership, TSMC is maybe the only supplier Apple can't boss around and Apple is certainly a client that is always too big to fire. Doesn't mean every apple product is good (and TSMC can still flub, and their competitors are catching up a little bit) but Apple can move whatever they need to lol, they are masters of supply chain managment. They can cover TSMC's mistakes if needed, and they have insight into exactly what is happening as the node is developed and how they need to maneuver their product stack around to exploit it.

Engineers study designs, CEOs study logistics. Also true of NVIDIA btw lol, they are very logistics-oriented because they make up such a large marketshare. How many companies on the planet are ordering big bulk runs of GDDR? Well, if we are ordering 20% of the planet's GDDR on a fixed timetable then maybe we can get a custom version, micron, right? (9 months later, GDDR5X/6X is born lol)

It is an interesting contrast to Intel - this is almost the same kind of synergistic relationship as intel's own fab and IP side have historically had together. Did intel fail because they had a tight fab-design coupling, or did they fail because they had a rotted internal culture and then the fab slipped a bunch?
That’s the entire point of the article.

Unwrapit provides a way to handle errors in JS/TS
Spent sometime to complete the document of my rust Result like library `unwrapit` for JS/TS.

Still think this might be a proper way to deal with errors in JS/TS
Rust absolutely can (and will!) prevent logic errors. Will it prevent all of them? Certainly not. But when I started using Rust there was a whole heap of "wait, did I ever even think about this class of error in any other peogramming language?" — and it turns out I did not.

The logic error prevention Rust has is purely done by the type system. E.g. when you read a file name this is a special kind of string (OsString), because some operating systems allow for combinations of bytes as filenames that are not valid unicode. Now if you want your regular Rust string, you have to do a conversion and that conversion will return a Result<String>, which means you either get an Ok<String> or an Error. If you don't handle that unpacking your program won't compile. Now you could just unwrap the result and live with a crash when there is an Error (and in some cases that would be totally valid), but you now know and have to decide how to handle it.

This for example would be something I didn't even know could be a problem and Rust made me handle it properly just be representing the thing in the type system. There are countless such things in the language.

Of couese if you go deeper, you have to represent your problems properly in the type system and there you can certainly introduce mistakes.
Oh, it's a huge effort! These bodies meet and discuss what the proper spelling of words should be, or they make up new words, and then they publish those guidelines for journalists, authors, and anyone who wants to speak "properly" to follow.

It gives the language a good balance between spelling and pronouncing - that's why you can pronounce most words in German and Spanish exactly how they are written (I think there are very very few exceptions, if at all). But this comes at a price of losing ability to track meaning some times.

Sometimes it is not going so well, for example, look at the tumultuous German reform of 1996.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_orthography_reform_of_1...

I am aware. But the fragments of Hittite attested in these Old Babylonian texts predate the earliest bits of the extant Hittite corpus by about a century. Given what we know about how the Hittite language evolved when it is well-attested, the differences are unlikely to be substantial.

My point remains: If you want to study the earliest attested Indo-European language, there's a good freshman-level grammar out there.

As the other poster pointed out, the signup was years ago for some of them so it’s unfair to blame current management for that. I would encourage you to report any bots you notice though. And as Elon said they will make mistakes. As we all know bots versus humans is an eternal arms race, not much new here.

> You'd think they would have created a more bot-proof account signup process

So you’re concerned about the signup process at sign up time.

Sorry to edit but I wasn’t clear before and can’t reply.

I just don’t see these. I think they are buried deep in threads that aren’t surfaced. Only by searching specifically can you find them. That’s pretty much what Elon planned: freedom of speech, not freedom of reach.

Also it seems reasonable to speculate that these particular bots are not prioritized to the extent that they are directly addressing specific requests on essentially (often) leaf nodes of conversations.

I’ve seen some variation of this accusation being thrown around for years- and frequently by people who I regard as smart, capable developers. On the other hand, having worked with languages all over the spectrum of static typing- I’ve also seen first how how high the bar really is for benefiting from static types before you hit diminishing returns.

The best answer I can come up with is that people just seem to have differently wired brains. For me, static typing- even fairly sophisticated static typing, is simple. It makes the code simpler, easier to reason about, easier to refactor, and with a sufficiently expressive type system it lets you build things in a much more intuitive way than you could otherwise. It’s not about solving puzzles for the sake of them- types remove a big part of the puzzle by letting me explicitly write things down- and letting the compiler keep track of the details.

Certainly plenty of people don’t see it that way, and I’ve heard a lot of people make similar arguments about dynamic typing being simpler and more expressive. I don’t think they are lying but I see a big pile of inscrutable pain when I work in large dynamically types codebases.

I know I’m right about my experience, and I trust other people are right about theirs, so there must be some significant divide in how we conceptualize code that makes one persons elegant simplicity another’s intolerable complexity.

Bystander effect is more than just street fights at 1am.

When I saw the title of this piece, my first thought was an emergency situation (eg - automobile accident, building on fire).

Did the study even determine whether bystanders were independent individuals or had a prior relationship to the belligerents? If the second one then it feels like the study is invalidated.

Hulu did (does?) this and the form rejected my email address as invalid because the domain portion had three parts to it.

I don't really see an argument made by Ng as to why they're not dangerous. I hardly ever see arguments, we're completely drowned in biases.

I know that he often said that we're very far away from building a superintelligence and this is the relevant question. This is what is dangerous, something that is playing every game of life like AlphaZero is playing Go after learning it for a day or so, namely better that any human ever could. Better than thousands of years of human culture around it with passed on insights and experience.

It's so weird, I'm scared shitless but at the same time I really want to see it happen in my lifetime hoping naively that it will be a nice one.
We did an exact dedup across all 84 dumps; there are 100T tokens before this exact dedup, and 30T tokens after. If we do further fuzzy dedup (we have simhash signatures pre-computed for different similarity level), this can potentially be reduced further.

There are quite a lot redundancies across dumps; but also a lot of unique/distinct documents

Yeah, it's an interesting moral quandary and you run into questions of who, exactly, is responsible for making a victim whole again. I was talking more about the immediate issue of the arrest rather than the follow-up, though.

An impression I have from some autistic former co-workers is that, when faced with a situation where there was a surface-level injustice and a more abstract justification for the injustice, that they would often not see the justification. This was particularly bad if it involved social cues like "that crowd of drunk people looks unpredictable and the police need to stop the fight so nobody else gets involved, so I shouldn't argue with them now", or "Bob looks like he's about to cry and is getting defensive, so we should back off this line of questioning". If you miss the murky social details then you're going to read those examples as clearly unjust.
