Have you noticed something?

Everyone here is some kind of developer! And remember what developers are notoriosly bad at? That's right -- marketing and sales...which is exactly what I can help you with. Because no matter how good your product is if you don't know who your audience is and how to market it to them.

Remember what Gary Halbert said to his students if they were to compete with his hypothetical hot-dog stand, "I'll give you every advantage you ask for -- better hot-dogs, better prices, whatever...as long as I can get only one advantage. I want a starving crowd!"

Every week I stumble upon websites of software companies who are just as good as their more famous competitors (or even better), but their marketing sucks, and that's why they never reach the hockey-stick growth phase.

Want some help with that? Send me an email today.

I remember when I was on Twitter, there was a service that did something similar, and it was free.
Living in the US is not the bar.

There are plenty of other places in EU with better tradeoffs.

If you can work remotely, small countries in the balkans / southern europe (just avoid the high tax behemoths doomed to decline: italy, spain, france, greece) will be way better.
Here in the Swiss countryside public transport is okay, at least to my tastes (I know I criticize sometimes but only first world problems). So if those other countries need a working model, here we are waving at them...
Even unstable is nowadays boring and stable, and it's hard to get into trouble even with experimental!

Decade or two ago it was more exciting when apt upgrade on unstable (or testing after a recent stable release) quite regularly got your computer into an unbootable state, the DE fubared or packages into some interlocking dependency mess that could be more or less impossible to solve. Haven't had that excitement many many years now.
It doesn't account for storage (obviously, I think I was pretty clear that this would increase the price from 1/5th to < 3/5ths) or for grid upgrades but LCOE absolutely does account for the projected lifespan of the generating assets.

100 years is, by the way, ludicrously optimistic for a nuclear power plant lifespan. If we ran nuclear power plants that long past their projected lifespans then quite a few would go kaboom.

I'm struggling with the same problem and found biographies to be a good middle ground with typically some (life) story arcs, emotional situations and sometimes flowery language to describe the characters and events.

The only thing that helps me to enjoy fiction is the feeling of having pure, unadulterated leisure time that sometimes emerges in the final days of a long vacation.

I’ve been looking for more ways to speedup the transcoding process, one solution I found was using gpu acceleration, another was using more threads but its hard to find the optimal amount I should provide.
Nobody who lives in Berlin is saying this. The people who go to clubs are much more concerned about A100. It's a local highway that is set to be expanded through the districts that clubs are located. Many clubs will have to close if it proceeds as planned.

Berghain has become kind of a tourist stunt. Visitors don't know any other clubs and they read about it online. So, they show up and try to get in just so they can say they got in. They get turned away and you see all the accusations of elitism, racism, etc.
I must admit, that is indeed succinct.

Now, all you need is to define your point of focus, and you're set!
Concurrency is not parallelism - you can multitask without (adding) threads.
A "Be My Eyes web app"? Well whatever. I guess Be My Eyes is just gonna be known for its Be My AI anyway. As soon as Llava is able to read text, this is gonna be pretty nice. I just wish it wasn't basically using Be My Eyes as a name to jump off of. This kind of local tech will be pretty amazing once it's fast enough to help with video games, or inaccessible apps. Add the ability for the AI to move the mouse in some of the GUI controller AI packages, and I could just say "click the next button and tell me what's on the screen afterwards" kind of thing.
On Dvorak keyboard it is in a very convenient place. Anyway, one can assign any letter. Not everyone uses virtualenv -- this is very frequent in Django, but I didn't see it elsewhere since I stopped working with it in 2016. Data science that I saw, revolves around Jupyter and Docker.

Anyway, my point is that your package offers conveniences like those in existing packages, and not free but at a similar cost. (Actually, I also contemplated making my own plugins system for `argh`, but just wrote a single package with my own decorator to handle just the few types I needed: pd.DataFrame and gpd.GeoDataFrame. https://github.com/culebron/erde/ )
Sometimes, as with tough love, relations of hurt are not what they
seem to be.

I had one canny and amazing teacher, humane and funny to the core. It
took me 5 years to grow from hating her to loving her. On the last
day, when I graduated her class with A+ and a special prize she
finally said to me;

""" I always marked your work unfairly, very poorly. I know kids
like you, and wanted to make you say "I'll show that fucking bitch"
"""

Occasionally, sparingly, I use that same device in my teaching. It's
hard to pull off and you have to watch very carefully where it
lands. You need to watch for Pvt. Gomer Pyle's who can't process it,
and give them 100% heart. But for many, being the bitch is the way to
their hearts, because it gives them something to triumph over. A sorry
kind of teacher is one who really cares too much what people think
about them.
Not enough words, or perhaps these are specific terms of art in some community. Fluctuation could be night to day, winter to summer, etc. Or, one errant word by a non-native speaker can throw the whole interpretation off.
You say that, but as another anecdote, I'm fit and lift weights, and I don't eat junk food. I wish my sleep were better but that's not for lack of trying.

LoganDark's comment about some people with ADHD being absolutely unable to will themselves to do certain things describes me so well it's scary. It's something I've struggled with for years, and has affected me at work lately.

I've always known I'm not lazy or stupid, and in the last few years I discovered programming and taught myself software development. I fixate on things strongly yet I struggle to do mental work if it just so happens that I find it uninteresting or pointless. It's fucking me up. My therapist even pointed out a few weeks ago that it's a strong sign of ADHD, but I hate the thought of having that... I guess now I really should seriously explore this. I only know that I started feeling like my dev job is pointless even though it's a great job, and my coworkers are fantastic. It's more deep than just pointless but now I can barely will myself do anything related to work...

The brain really is fucked ha
> Crypto today is the only way how you can take control of your own funds.

Well, digging a hole in the forest and storing money there technically remains an option.

May be more viable than crypto for certain rare use cases.
Wow! I just tried it out, and that was like a dream come true. Thank you for linking this.
Listen to all the recommendations you hear, but you need to keep trying different authors and genres until you find what grabs you. We all have different tastes, so if you don't yet know what you like, sample a bit of everything until you do know.
As the descendant of Carthaginians, I find this PEP offensive and disgraceful. If such module is to be introduced, I require that an equivalent "carthaginian" package be also added.

Under a license which does not pass the open source litmus test:

https://huggingface.co/01-ai/Yi-34B/blob/main/LICENSE

Still, better than being entirely closed I suppose. But there are properly open models out there and one wonders how they will compare.
I don't think we disagree on much. Unity has failed to stick the landing on most features developed in the past decade. If you make small to medium sized games, and treat it like 2015-era Unity, it still works decently, but progress since then has been slow going. All the new-ish features since then, like Scriptable Render Pipelines, Networking and DOTS had a rough development path, with constant bugs, breakages and stillborn features, sometimes packages got deprecated before reaching production status.

As for the C++/OpenGL comparison, I could've just recommended any common sense approach using industry standard tools, like Unreal.

I'm just saying, in terms of code performance, DOTS promised a paradigm shift, this cool new way of structuring code and writing a dialect of C# promised heretofore unseen heights of performance. The reality was that Unity Burst code is barely faster than CoreCLR .NET code, and is slower than straightforward no-frills C++ (but at least you get Unity vendor lock-in). This performance matters when you're trying to code a core game system, like procedural shattering, CSG, or inverse kinematics, doing it in regular C# will bite you in the butt. I'd rather do C++ for the few things where performance matters (not to mention, I'm 99% sure that well-tested high performance open-source C++ implementations of the above problems exist), than let Unity take me for a ride with DOTS.

Just take a look at Unreal. I'm pretty sure most of the stuff Unity's still working on wasn't a problem circa UE4 release@2014, and most of their 2014 demos would work in a modern version of Unreal (not sure how much of a breaking change UE5 is, but definitely in the latter UE4 releases).
I'll believe it when I see it having been taken apart by actually independent nerds who look beyond benchmarks and actually take care if the fundamentals work properly.

The state of Qualcomm products over the last years has left me with absolutely zero confidence.

> Do you guys actually control your dreams?

I don’t lucid dream often, but when I realise I am dreaming sometimes it makes zero difference and in others I can think calmly and change my actions as if I were awake.

I have a peculiarity (unsure how common this is) in my dreams where every place is different from their real counterpart but the same between dreams. So whenever I am in control in a dream, I use the opportunity to explore the area and uncover more of the geography/architecture for subsequent dreams. The issue with control is that the more of it I exert, the more I feel myself waking up. The reverse is also true. So I have to take turns exploring and “letting go” (i.e. don’t make decisions) to balance it out and remain in the dream state as long as possible. It’s always a matter of time and the more I realise that is happening the closer I am to waking up.

> How do you keep bad things from happening?

Like what? It’s only a dream and I don’t sleepwalk. I don’t fear nightmares because I’m glad when I wake up and they weren’t real.

> More importantly, do you remember anything when you wake up?

Yes, otherwise how would we know lucid dreaming is a thing?
You obviously don't spend much time in, or interacting with, the Bitcoin community.
Using Crypto is probably the #1 reason for being debanked ...

Unverifiable, untraceable money arriving into your account does not work well with AML regualations.
I feel the majority still uses qwerty keyboards; I assumed that when choosing the name and the shortcut for the tool.

Experiences differ, and de gustibus on est disputandum; in my bubble, virtualenv is a must-have for Python development.

I have multiple Python projects, they run different versions of Python itself and its libraries, and for many of them Docker would be an overkill; so it is hard for me to imagine my routine without virtual environments.

I employ pyenv to manage them but venv is a venv.
Sounds like they may not want to.
Is not wanting to do extra work really that hard to understand?
We simply should not blindly rely on services like banks. You can invent any other new system, but you will never avoid this to happen. The lesson to be learned here is never let yourself get cornered.
I have also have a soft spot for Racket, although professionally I lean on Common Lisp to get stuff done.

The once a year RacketCon conference was two weekends ago, and in addition to the technical talks, I enjoyed hearing the 4 academics who are primary implementers and maintainers taking questions from the audience about why Racket is not targeted at industry. I am just finishing up writing a Racket book, that really just consists of my own little code experiments (no big deal). You can read it free online https://leanpub.com/racket-ai/read

Probably just like in the most scenarios nowadays: user gets ban and cannot appeal the decision in any way

Perhaps in the basic form of dealing with users who break the rules Wikipedia allows an appeal or bans are temporary - I'm just guessing, I stopped being an active Wiki user some 10 years ago. I didn't want to lose nerves on trivial issues like edit wars with self-appointed experts who couldn't accept they might be wrong.

Also, I've found some 2 days ago that my IP range was banned from anonymous edits because someone somewhere did once something

I’ve heard of lucid dreaming and always wanted to experience it but never could. I don’t know how people actually do it.
Too bad they're going Github, indeed. Keeping away those users that won't be willing (or able) to contribute to the project unless it's hosted on GitHub is something desirable, in my opinion.
Negative brand value is no reason to debank someone, half musicians that do drugs would give their bank a bad name. There must be a legal basis to debank someone.

I don't like Farage's opinions, and being a PEP only means "more eyes on you", doesn't mean "kick them out".
1) Now, if Coutts dropped the ball on something, shame on them. A good lawyer can get some good ££££ for damaging the client's business/etc.
2) If Farage didn't mean a minimum-net-worth.. that's another story.
Qualcomm had an exclusivity deal with Microsoft for years [1], which they then used to deliver absolute crap to customers, which in combination with almost zero software being available on Windows for ARM [2] (even popular software such as Chrome...) led to these things being nice paperweights.

Do you remember the name by chance ? Did it work well ?
His work is not primarily about multithreading but about cleaning up ffmpeg to be true to its own architecture so that normal human beings have a chance of being able to maintain it. Things like making data flow one way in a pipeline, separating public and private state and having clearly defined interfaces.

Things had got so bad that every change was super difficult to make.

Multithreading comes out as a natural benefit of the cleanup.
Or perhaps two things could be true at the same time; SpaceX saves the government money on launches and Elon is a crazy shitposter on “X”

>>> I’ve heard lucid dreaming can become a chore

>> Bear in mind that you don't control when they occur

> You can very well control when they occur, e.g. if you do WILD

We are talking of different scenarios. It becomes a chore when you are lucid dreaming frequently without any prior intention to do so.

The way out of that is letting go of your desire of controlling your lucid dreams, and instead let them play out like a movie. You are still lucid, since you still know it's all an illusion, just like when you watch a movie IRL.
Luckily, by now there are enough tools to hide the insanity of git behind the scenes. Just make sure to avoid the 1980-s way of using it (console).
Can you describe to me what the main point of "blockchain technology" is? What is there to innovate in terms of its core function?
It's like they don't know that they can have a clone on Github and still continue using Mercurial.

On the other hand, they're moving from open source tool to a closed ecosystem and depends on microsoft. Very sad.
Advocating for rule changes is reasonable. So is following the rules as they are.

Complaints of the following form are generally not reasonable:

“You advocated for A, but the actual rules are still B. How dare you play as if the rules are B and not A!!?”
Good news, is that the brain is very resilient.

I had a tennis ball sized mass removed from my brain years ago, and it's less losing brain function, and more experiencing different brain function.

A suspicion is a non-factual feeling based on seemingly incomplete fact.

To say false suspicion, is to run counter to a person's feeling.

To mitigate a feeling of this (suspicion), you will need to demonstrate some (not-so-counter-but-initial-)factual presentation.

Asserting a false suspicion is a blatant insult to the Aristotle logic discourse and two-debate debate exchange.

You say False suspicion? We say: you prove it, don't evade it.
Concurrency is just the ability to handle multiple tasks at the same time, to use my quickly googled definition.

JavaScript already supports concurrency, e.g. handling more than one HTTP request concurrently, despite the runtime being single-threaded in nature.
Also provided by JavaScript is the ability to fork and join with other asynchronous tasks, e.g. using `Promise.all` to wait for multiple HTTP requests to complete.

The purpose of `ts-chan` is to make it easier to coordinate concurrent operations, via communication, which definitely isn't something JavaScript makes easy.

So part of this is addressing usability issues, and providing necessary boilerplate.
I've modelled most of that after Go's channels.

Another is providing a mitigation for a common gotcha (well, it's gotten me), when attempting to implement behavior that involves multiple independent asynchronous operations, communicating with one another. Specifically, JS has a "microtask queue", an optimisation I believe was created to power async/await. Details / links to MDN here: https://github.com/joeycumines/ts-chan#the-microtask-queue-a...
> Yes, otherwise how would we know lucid dreaming is a thing?

This might be getting TMI but sometimes I remember some things happened but I don't remember the details. For example, I flew around indoors in a museum or had these long conversations with my parents.

I don't remember what was said in those conversations but I am afraid one of these days I'll remember what we talked about and not realise it wit for real and when I actually talk to my parents they are going to be really confused.
>In a truly socialist structure, corner cutting comes from prioritizing other duties to the people, directly or indirectly. Capitalistic pressures come from money.

You can argue that's the same under capitalism, just replace "the people" with "customers". In both cases corner cutting is only an issue if there's deception involved, wether that's a Party member using lower quality materials for a construction project, or a video game company spending less time polishing a game. I don't see a problem with releasing unfinished/poorly optimized games as long as it's clearly disclosed. Early releases are basically this.
> Hosting it elsewhere means people are less likely to find it in the first place.

But Firefox is a well-known software and, at the same time, a very complex one. I don't think that somebody who struggles figuring out how to contribute via, e.g., Gitlab, will be able to contribute anything useful to the project.
that’s called documentation and it is mostly read post-activation. What’s read during onboarding is the “quickstart”, and they only attempt it after they’ve decided the offering matches their problem

Yeah, but I don't know if that's true throughout all the ecosystem.

One of the main selling points ( if not THE selling point of Debian ) is the stability and lack of "surprises".

If that fails and Debian starts to be perceived as "once was the gold standard, now they are slacking", trust erodes. Even if you're right about 80% of it.
Maybe it could focus on what's still around but there's a section later on where they deal with older or non-existent stuff.
Anyone have any anecdotal (or other studies) reproducing this outcome? I've had severe sleep problems for 10+ years, after begging the Dr to test VitD my 25(OH)D result came out at 8ng/mL. Dr said that's OK and I shouldn't supplement... but literally everywhere classifies 8ng/mL as deficient, so I did supplement 3000IU D3 (+ K2 MK7) for 6 months which seemed to marginally improve my sleep then paid for a re-test, now 48ng/mL. Upon seeing this result the Dr said it's very high and to immediately stop supplementing but it still puts me below the 60-80ng/mL range where the improvements were observed in this study.

Tempted to try supplementing D3 a bit further now until I test in the 60-80 range to see if it helps.
