Hmm, touché.
Early on I argued for bignums and decimals in Rust, imagining also things like automatic currying, and other FP features

But it went a completely different way, ripping out any runtime it had, making reference counting a lot more noisy, etc.

It would be interesting to build a "simpler Rust"

How so? From that post and a few others I've read touching on the topic, it didn't seem obvious that prisoners are being put to work.
I have family members who buy new computers every few years just so they can play web-based games on Facebook with reasonable performance. This is quite understandable given how poorly the Facebook website performs even with modern browsers with modern JavaScript engines but on older hardware. This IMHO is one of the dark side of JavaScript -- it may 'run everywhere' but it certainly doesn't perform well everywhere. It does not matter other sites work (e.g. HN) work just fine on older hardware, the Joe Public just want Facebook, Gmail, etc to work.
Yeah, it seems that way.
*BSD provide x86 binaries for most (if not all) packages so this is a non-issue IMHO.
I use cash all the time. But then, I'm old so....

But, this statement: "Fiat currency, on the other hand, holds value just because a governing entity is endorsing it" just isn't true. I see it bandied about a lot by people who have a certain way of thinking. Consider modern "fiat" currencies of reasonably advance countries. What do they all have in common? Debt. Now, you may think that just makes the argument right there that they really are fiat, but what does that debt represent? It represents the endorsement of the currency by all the individuals and entities that hold that debt. Any government that doesn't want their fiat currency to collapse has to behave in a way that ensures those creditors that their confidence is well placed.
The author raises some interesting points.

But these arguments seem a little tired now. Does a customer actually care what technology you use - absolutely not. If react is easier for you, go for it. If that’s HTMX - fine.

What matters is speed of delivery of new features. And react has huge amounts of support (and a large developer base) that makes development quick and cheap.

I’ve never understood these html purist arguments. As if React/Vue/Angular are desecrating this pure text language.

There are other issues of far greater importance - accessibility, multi-language, browser consistency, sane defaults and easy tooling.
At the bottom of it, how is it philosophically different?

Everyone who engages in altruism is trying to further a goal. Everyone thinks that the more effective their actions in pursuing that goal, the better. Is that really different than ea (not EA)?

It seems to me that the difference is more about strategy than philosophy.
Grocery stores still accept $100s. It is the places where the average purchase is much smaller (or robberies are more common), like coffee shops or convenience stores. Gas stations might accept the bill but only if the change needed is under $20. And then they drop the bill in the safe, rather than put it in the till.
Do you find that your team often has to reinvent the wheel in terms of what libraries like React/Vue/Svelte have to offer? Doesn't that increase time and scope tremendously?
This is how to safely fall to the ground you're standing on if you're elderly and topple.

Surely that depends on your users.

My current users value speed of feature release over almost anything else, because the system needs to adapt to their rapidly changing business rules.

In my previous job, correctness was the most highly valued attribute, followed by adherence to consistent design across the org (which was large, and produced many sites that a user would navigate between all-but unknowingly).

In either case, if I'd gone on a HTML purity rampage, I would not have been helping my users in any meaningful way.

What exactly is your argument?
That hasn't been my experience with a 2021 RAV4. The Toyota system is much more reliable then Carplay. Which I've heard is itself more reliable than android auto.

I imagine partly because it uses the physical buttons located around the screen, partly because automakers have much more stringent requirements for software validation.

e.g. Maybe 1 out of 1000 times the built in maps app crashes, gives an error, or doesn't respond to an input. That ratio is more like 1 in 10 for Maps in Carplay.
I agree mostly, but disagree about demand dropping, as this is industry specific. With regards to teachers, students and families will simply be stuck with whatever resources can be provided (in the citations I provide above, some parents are unhappy with a 4 day school week, but if taxpayers don't want to pay more for a mandated service, too bad so sad, you get what you get). Speaking of police protection, you will get degraded services or no services. Most critically, if there are not enough nurses, CNAs, and other medical practitioners, care delivery will degrade and people will potentially die. These are all services and systems with mostly inelastic demand. Where demand is elastic, there is more flexibility in the feedback loop. Labor is not fungible, so expect this to continue in a lumpy fashion for at least the next decade.

The end-goal is, not surprisingly, to take away ownership and control. "Open source" is just a distraction, a way to paint this in a trendy positive light. Lots of things that are truly open source are actually user-hostile too. Whether the source is open doesn't really matter here.
But there was something in the article about epoxy - so potentially the components are glued down with a conductive epoxy instead of being actually soldered. Why you do this? Don't know. But it would explain why the solder is losing the plot.
As someone who designs circuit boards professionally, the explanation is clearly lacking. There might be a thermal issue or there might not be. There is nothing conclusive in the pictures either way. What I do see is the following:

1. Underfill (the brownish-tan smooth material surrounding the components towards the bottom of the picture) around the IC, which is typically done to make parts more mechanically robust.

2. No evidence of overheating on any of the thermal interface material that is left stuck to most of the components and no evidence of overheating on the PCB or the components themselves.

3. Completely insufficient evidence to declare a soldering issue. The way to prove this one way or another is x-ray inspection to look for voids in the solder or a mechanical cross-section of the suspect solder joints.

While this certainly could actually be the problem, I see insufficient evidence to conclude one way or another. Manufacturers don’t put underfill under a part unless it’s required through testing or experience with similar package types in prior designs since it adds cost, additional process steps and makes it a PITA or impossible to rework any bad components in the area.

As to the pad size/shape, there are three general classes of design defined by the IPC (standards body that deals with PCBs and PCB assemblies). Depending on how space constrained your design is, there are different recommended pad designs for passive components like these. They might be using one of the tighter spacing guidelines, but if their process is well controlled, it can be perfectly fine for the design life of the product.

If you want to see small pad layouts done well, look at an iPhone logic board.

If you want to know more about pad design for SMT parts, search for IPC-7352

Probably not. We are talking about some function of first N numbers and its limit when N approaches infinity. There is more than one reasonable way to clarify "first prime factor" and "first N numbers", but I think for all of these reasonable definitions the median diverges, having different subsequential limits for even and odd values of N.
Nice. It seems there is a systematic error towards the edges of the paper, which can easily be fixed in software.

Though it would be nice to do more tests. For example, there is some error when drawing sharp corners. It would be instructive to see how that changes as you change the angle, etc. And how that changes based on location on the paper.
The addition to the money supply that debt represents has presumably already happened, so wiping it out with newly minted dollars should have a neutral effect.

In practice, though, I suppose this would immediately be followed by a spending spree of new debt, like a boomer that just paid off their seadoo, so on the whole I suppose youre probably right.
This whole Xi gonna go crazy take on China is so silly. It's a massive country with a single party that has been in power for over 70 years. One person isn't going to be able to make any drastic decisions at all.

I actually wrote this post in preparation for a fight about WAFs with a SOC2 auditor, wish me luck! :)

The specific control says "Boundary protection systems (for example, firewalls, DMZs, IDS/IPS, and EDR systems) are configured, implemented, and monitored to protect external access points", which seems to leave room for doing stuff other than WAFs.
They were really hard to get. We used to special order them from my local bank for fun; they make fantastic origami rings and I loved giving them to kids. But they were actually challenging to find.

So, in my mind, that’s why they weren’t popular: they weren’t really distributed like other currencies. Akhams razor.

Earlier that week there was a humungous telco outage at Optus in Australia too. All (mobile?) services down for almost 24 hours and they still dont know what caused it. A few days later, this happens at the ports. May or may not be linked.

Let's say you have a complex question that requires some math or difficult logic to solve.

The idea of Code Interpreter is that ChatGPT, instead of inventing/hallucinating the answer to your complex question, can write code to solve it.

ChatGPT is better at writing code that matches the logic of the problem, than it is at coming up with a straight-up reply.

So it comes up with the code, it runs it with Code Interpreter, and then reads the answer out loud to you.

> The real bottleneck is a web browser that can render the modern web and there is no real solution for that.

I think ChromeOS solves that problem quite smartly, by starting the bare necessities to launch the browser and nothing else. No more moving parts, just the web, which is what 99% of computer use seems to be these days anyway.

ChromeOS Flex seems to work pretty well for giving old laptops a second life. It won't run on your Pentium II but there are plenty of computers out there that'll work great.

With Microsoft's plans for Windows 12, I can imagine a cloud-based Windows that you can use any old laptop with. As long as you have decent WiFi and a thin client loaded, you'll end up with laptops where hardware h264 decoding will matter more than CPU power and RAM.
As a novice Rust programmer I agree with everything here lol. I don't know what a CFG is, and the 2nd code block not compiling breaks referential transparency which is very very weird to me.

If i understand correctly, the lexical scope idea is just saying that `slice` exists in scope until the end of the block regardless of what happens inside the block, whereas CFG is smarter and says that since we don't use slice after line 3, its not in scope anymore. So from my POV the non lexical scope is unequivocally better, more fine-grained reasoning from the type system.
Using PHP and other tools/frameworks that tightly coupled the frontend to the backend codebase made life miserable. While I was excited to get into web development back when these technologies were popular, they were anything but pleasant to use.

With the introduction of Angular 1.x and eventually React, Vue, and Svelte -- creating web apps finally felt productive, easy to debug, and easy to ship. Wiring up interactions finally felt intuitive. No more jQuery code colliding with itself as you struggle to organize your project and cobble together a bunch of poorly maintained "component" libraries and pray they work together without obvious user-facing bugs on your site or app.

Or worse: on a team of engineers.

I won't lie, learning how early build systems worked was a pain, but the curve was completely worth it, and I wouldn't change a thing. Today, using tools like Vite with their default project templates is almost too easy, and you can hit the ground running in no time.

Publishing to Vercel, Netlify, and other modern hosting stacks is a breeze, and they all support direct tie-ins with every popular package & build system.

there's evidence to suggest that there were two separate events from different strains at the start of the pandemic

this doesn't disprove the lab leak theory, but then they would have to be studying two separate very related strains and it would be strange if they just kept leaking different strains

You could, of course, take it as proof that the lab leak happened at around the same time as lineage B, while lineage A is from bats
Wait... so this is basically every sci-fi movie's nightmare scenario.

Can you expand on how this works? Presumably retail workers have to log hours and clock in/out. Did the company demand you falsify your hours? Or did they just not pay for some of your hours? The latter seems clearly illegal, it's wage theft.

No... this library calls gpt (or claude, or another hosted LLM) and asks it to write the code.

The code is then retrieved to your computer and run locally.

This way you can run the code on local files or give it access to the internet. Basically, this is Code Interpreter with none of the security features.

The line is very blurry, and the moment you'd like dynamic, interactive content embedded within that static content is when it's time to reach for a view library like React.

At that point, I'm just going to start the project with React / Vue / Svelte every time because almost 100% of the time, I realize I need to support the features they offer that raw HTML/CSS cannot, or if they do, are very poorly implemented by browsers, hitting limitations with them that become frustrating and prevent you from achieving the scope you're aiming for.

Using any of those three libraries/frameworks is painless, and I can get a project going rapidly and with high confidence that I can support any functionality, interaction, animation, content, routing, and other common web problems, with great ease.

Tiananmen Square was not a great military victory. Everyone knows that unarmed protesters are no match for armed tanks. It was, however, a demonstration of utter ruthlessness, so maybe that is the vibe he is going for.

Please define car software.

You have user facing functions, and you have engine control functions, ABS, transmission, and so on.

The first one, I agree, is generally crap.

For the second one, in a lot of models, your manufacturer haven't even written the code, because they buy it from some OEM manufacturer like Bosch.

And I am pretty sure that Bosch is pretty good at writing this kind of software.
There is a difference between what I with my layman-user cap on would consider unsafe (say, releasing purposefully harmful software into the environment or software with bugs like phantom braking) and what I with my embedded software programmer cap on (machine control, aerospace related) would consider to be unsafe. I spend a lot of my time reading root cause analysis on software failures and my only conclusion is that this is a very immature industry with a lot of players that should probably not be trusted as much as we do.

As for safety shims: for instance, watchdog timers are often used for this purpose, to bring a system that is exhibiting buggy behavior to behave more predictable. Personally I would consider any watchdog error that was not directly related to a hardware fault (say a bitflip) as a failure and I'd like to have my car report such failures.

Tesla being non-compliant is precisely my point: they get away with that because they don't have to open up their code to scrutiny. But I'll bet that if they would that their marketing department would not be able to spin stuff the way they do at present.

All of those would take into account the relevant context and I think that's where things go off the rails here: embedded software developers do not get to claim the high ground around what they consider safe or unsafe given the code from that world that I've had my eyes on. If anything it is amazing that it works as well as it does, the only two industries that get a pass based on my experience so far is medical embedded and avionics. Everybody else has the exact same problems as any other software project and would benefit from opening themselves up to scrutiny.
