It's both.

Sure, if you have project like facebook then you problably won't get away from complexity, and you NEED a tool to help you manage that.

But at the same time, if you assume you need such tool from the beginning, chances are you will over-complicate your solution and it will become a self fulfilling prophecy of trying to tackle complexity by adding more complexity

In a perfect world this would be true, especially at the large business level where the integrator will get their ass sued by the customer or at least be forced to make good on the situation.

In the retail and small/medium business market the reality is that Dell, HP, and the like are under so much pressure to cut margins that they'll go with whoever is cheapest, and customers almost never escalate things to tort.

Dell PC power supplies are made for them by someone else, proprietary in size and connector, and gosh, wouldn't you know it - they have a pretty high failure rate. They last just long enough to make it out of the warranty period, and then they make for a really nice revenue stream for Dell via replacement PSUs or pushing the customer to buy a new system entirely.

Even failure within the warranty period is acceptable in the consumer market because integrators have it down to a science exhausting people on the customer support side. Long phone queue times, incompetent support agents who have to transfer you to different agents and likely drop the call entirely, silly policies like requiring a reformat/OS reinstall for everything, and so on.
Car companies often don't do the embedded development themselves. They usually rely on suppliers and a vast network of contractors to do most of that work, though things have been shifting back in-house in recent years for velocity/feature/security/bug fixing/institutional knowledge reasons. Some of that is becoming more open source, e.g. I've seen work from Ford and GM being open sourced, but it's relatively uncommon compared to the higher level stack.
Why would I be the one to do that? I already have a pressure sensitive 6dof stylus that is compatible with openxr.

OpenXR isn't a niche API when you are dealing with 6dof input devices.
Well, I'm past that addiction now so I don't want to try it to stir it up, but I've had pipe tobacco and cigar tobacco, as well as chewing tobacco since I quit cigarettes and I've never had them rope me back in even a little bit. So I think cigarettes have something else going on. Maybe I'm wrong.

I am curious though if this worked for you as a full substitute to sate cravings, and what amount you added.

Matplotlib is a fantastic library even if I don’t love the API.

The name and API come from MATLAB, and once you realize that it makes more sense. It was originally meant to replicate the plotting functionality in python to be familiar to MATLAB users. IMO this is what makes it feel non-pythonic, but it was never really a python API in the first place.

Impossible GPT Apps
I've tried and failed miserably at making two GPT apps.

1. A chess game which shows the visual state of the board after every move (as a DALL-E 3 image).

2. A TensorFlow visualizer, which takes a model summary plot image as input, and displays a new plot with the nodes properly represented (I feel that I could have made this work w/ a bit more effort, but decided it wasn't worth it).

But it does make me think that these apps are kind of gimmicky and I don't really understand how they are much better than just asking ChatGPT questions directly, despite the fact that they have their little self-contained instructions and fine-tuning.
The main thing I think manufacturers would try to avoid is to be embarrassed by the kind of shenanigans that helped VW to pass emissions inspections when in fact they shouldn't have. And that's proof enough to me that manufacturers don't give a rats ass about safety or the environment if it means more money for them.

I realize how complex those toolchains are (and how many parties would have to sign off on a release) but what amazes me more is that we are willing to trust these manufacturers on their say-so. Because chances are their interests and our interests are not aligned, as the diesel scandal has clearly proven. And I would not be at all surprised if there were more such scandals but we just haven't uncovered them.

Given what the Asahilinux people and some other very talented individuals have done in the FOSS movement, combined with the fact that half the world is powered by open source including for many mission critical and safety critical applications I'm pretty sure we could handle vehicles as well.

Nice to see your setup works well!

I have a similar problem. Our kids left a gate-opener fob with us while they went away. But do you think we can find it now they have returned?

We have a defined place (a box marked "keys") where we put things like that. but for some reason or other, it's not in there.

Any suggestions?
It is another accident of evolution that we ended up with 12 finger joints, allowing one to count to twelve with a single hand by tapping the thumb on each finger segment in turn.
The official death count is barely above 100,000. No one uses those data, and that is not the source of the 2 million figure.

We largely understand the failures that killed a million people in the US; China was not confronted with the same issue that would have resulted in well over 4 million deaths there.
Just the diesel scandal alone... (different badge, same manufacturer, and Porsche with their Cayenne diesel models was definitely affected).

$150K in 1995 is ~$300K in 2023 dollars. See the significance now?

> Some things having demand increaae more than supply doesn't make then “not a market”.

A market that benefitted from the downtrend of interest rates to ZIRP, PPP "loans" (more like grants), investors (which make up 20-30% of buyers, though they make like 1% of owners), and a Fed with $8.2 Trillion on balance sheet, is not what I would call a functioning market.

Questions worth contemplating - if all the post covid stimulus did not happen, what would have happened to the housing market? And what would have happened to the economy? Shouldn't the rate of increase in income track with rate of increase in house prices?
Same, I just had the problem of wanting to display crosstabs between n raters which calls for a gridview of heatmaps. It was a 15min GPT job rather than struggling for 2 hours on my own. I got to worry about the salient parts of the problem than the minutia of matplotlib.

That wasn't my experience. One of the drivers that pushed me to quit was loss of stamina and lung capacity, I was beginning to feel the impact on my health. Within 48 hours of quitting I could feel my stamina double, which is common among people who quit cigarettes. The feeling that drove me back every time but the last one was the intense anxiety from quitting, definitely a drug withdrawal and not a physical feeling of malaise. I don't think physical malaise is a common withdrawal symptom when quitting cigarettes.

> In my first comment I literally mentioned BitLocker,

You did mention bitlocker. But it was unrelated to RAM encryption, and you acted like it was related.

Everything you said about bitlocker was true, but the way you brought up bitlocker was itself the problem.

> someone replied to my initial comment - in the context of BitLocker

No they did not. Your answer did not make a new separate context for just bitlocker. You muddled bitlocker and RAM encryption. They replied in the original context, because you said that RAM encryption stores the key in RAM during standby.

Whether you intended to say that or not, it's what you said. Go back and read the original comments. You directly said that line about RAM encryption, not just disk encryption.

"> > As a naive outsider: Does RAM in 2023 encrypt all its contents?"

"> No. At least not reliably, due to how the keys are stored in RAM as well (e.g. when in standby mode, or when a laptop lid is just closed)."

> I don't see the technology as reliable as of today, and I don't understand why you think I am wrong with that statement?

I never said you were wrong about that.
There are probably some people (other than historians) into that stuff.

For a parallel example, the earliest records of anime stretch back to winter 1917 (!), though no-one has recordings of those any more:

If your project is small, doesn't matter what you use, it won't be complex anyway.
Don't worry, they have plot armor.
SAP is really fascinating. On the one hand, it apparently works. On the other hand, it seems to feed on suffering.
Yes, it shifts complexity to the backend. Which will already have it anyway (because it has to), has better tools to manage it, you can use literally anything you want instead of being forced to use javascript, has (relatively) instant access to the authoritative source of truth, and isn't resource constrained (at least not the same way that the client is).

so "just shifts it somewhere else" might be underselling it a little
>I think the energy cost of manufacturing these is 100-1,000x higher

I'd have thought adding a bit more plastic to roll and cut a slightly thicker bag would have a negligible increase in overall impact. You could however easily be right too.

Either way without any reliable source it's fairly meaningless to have an opinion either way.
XHTML may not be mainstream with people authoring web pages, but it is a thing within publishing pipelines that generate XHTML from other XML-based sources like JATS or DocBook. It's also a thing at least in ePub 1 and 2 content (I can't recall if they relaxed it to HTML for ePub 3 or later).
Wow. That is extremely impressive.
You can overthink it, though. My name, had I been female, would have been Margaret. Nice name. I could totally see being a Maggie.

Except they were going to call me Marg. Hard G. Like Ms Helgenberger, the actress. I probably wouldn’t have been that attractive, which is pretty much the only way to survive with such a horrible name.

Someone would have to tell the police about it though.
I'm unconvinced. In a ticket I just took over, we need to update the options in a drop down in a modal. Django and react. The PR I took over has already touched nearly a dozen files, and tests have not yet even been written to count towards that.

This should be like three files max (one, ideally) on the BE and similar on the FE. Things I used to 15 years ago in a few minutes takes _hours_ even when you know what you are doing.
I would go further, adjust your footprints to accommodate a 30AWG wire being soldered to them.

Too many people blindly accept generated footprints that are meant for machines and not humans. They are far too dense and have too little overhang.

For QFNs, adding about .4-.6mm of exposed copper extension to all pins can make both testing and hand rework vastly easier. In addition, extending the thermal pad far enough that you can easily hit it with a soldering iron often makes heat gun rework tremendously easier.

While this won't work for giant BGAs, you can often figure out how to extend exposed copper for up to about a 36 ball (6x6) BGA. For example, there are some wonky packages for power transistors that are basically 4 ball (2x2) BGAs. Running the traces out diagonally with some extra exposed copper helps for both soldering and testing.
You'll get paid bathrooms but they will be just as dirty lol.

Because it was made to run on Linux from the start. I remember being excited to work with .net core on Linux, then discovering that most of the system libraries for network programming and related were either not implemented or badly working, but you would only find out if dug deep into low level stuff. After that, I swore of using it seeing how much the hype for cross platform didn't match reality. Hopefully they fixed it, but seeing as there are other choices of languages, it wasn't so bad.
Are you so sheltered that you cannot draw a link between one's environment & upbringing, and impaired agency?

My MBA early 2017 (i5/8GB/256) is always nagging me to upgrade to Big Sur, but I did that once (via clean install) and it was terribly slow.

Oops sorry. Completely missed that. o_O
Yeah but have you noticed how hard it has gotten to include simple libraries like day.js or three.js? It's still doable, but it's not easy anymore. Then there's some real value to be found in frameworks like Quasar which gets really painful to use via a cdn, which I've been doing for years now. Vue3 complicated things further so why not just move to react once and for all?

Vanilla JavaScript just didn't manage to solve what it kind of promised to solve via web components, the lack of templating is really a bad shortcoming.

I really do need things like Quasar and the stuff that Vue (and react) offer because it really helps a lot in usability. I've just been doing Vue with Quasar "by hand" via local CDN without compiling and it was such a win, but the more these frameworks evolve the less it's possible to ignore the fact that these are "modern frameworks" and the pain just grows too much.
I never made any comments about de-policing, that is a projection on your part. I have personally witnessed extreme police racism growing up in a small town.

I have personally been illegally harassed by police and an entire corrupt court system, illegally charged with a crime I did not commit, and was refused a chance to appeal because my lawyer was worried the judge would be mad at her for not playing along. I was given the maximum possible jail sentence of 6 months on my first criminal offense for a crime I didn't commit. And this happens every day, disproportionately to particular demographics. You have no idea what you are talking about.
This was interesting to read about and am not familiar with California City at all. Before clicking was thinking San Jose, CA may be the third largest by population so not what was expected.

Hey, Dagger employee here. This exactly is one of the the main design decisions of Dagger. We're not expecting companies and/or projects to perform a full migration to it, that's why we generally recommend starting by wrapping different parts of your pipeline and move on from there. Unlike other solutions, Dagger allows you to keep using your existing tooling and reuse Dockerfiles (https://docs.dagger.io/quickstart/429462/build-dockerfile/#r...) while slowly transition your pipelines to code.
I don’t know why I am getting downvoted. We are talking about physical machines that someone had to physically connect hardware to and not a vm that can simply be provisioned via cloud init. Maybe it was pxe booted, but you’d have to really try to get homogeneous hardware.

I know how you feel. I tend to think like everything I do is insignificant and not worth sharing. As a hobbyist programmer I only work on things in my free time. I used to not publish stuff on GitHub because I felt my projects were incomplete, too small, too unpolished, too unmaintained. I've never submitted my projects here and only mention them in comments when they're relevant and posting them is easier than explaining. I started making a deliberate effort to change that in the past few years. I've repeatedly discovered that people notice what you do when you put yourself out there.

Years ago I bought a Clevo-based laptop from a brazilian manufacturer, reverse engineered the keyboard LEDs and wrote a Linux user space driver for it. I just published it on GitHub and forgot about it, assuming no one would ever care. One day I opened my email and discovered I somehow had users and someone even built a GUI around my little program. I was actually a little embarrassed that someone had posted an issue asking me how to use the thing and I didn't even see it.

I mentioned another Linux project here in comments, someone submitted it and I got to engage with the community about it. Recently someone submitted another project of mine, a programming language, without me talking about it. Seriously made my day when I opened HN and saw my project on the front page. Couldn't even believe it at first.

It takes a certain boldness to put oneself out there. I'm always ready for negativity and criticism. Still, the results can be very nice.

Nah, I don't think that is fair. Gore conceded the election promptly once all his legal options were exhausted. He said in his speech that although he may not agree with the decision by the courts, he respects the constitutional process and accepts their decision. (even though quite a bit of research has indicated that Gore likely did win Florida)

Hillary conceded late that very night of her election. (Even though there was Russian interference in the election and a Republican head of the FBI spoke out against policy that they were reopening the emails investigation.)

Trump never conceded and continues to openly state that the election was totally rigged and stolen and illegitimate.

There is no comparison. Everyone has the right to claim it wasn't fair or that the other side cheated. But when the courts have decided, you accept the decision and you concede and you say you support the candidate that beat you and you wish for their success.
I've never found an explanation of what exactly is in that.
