Is there a way to see what the HTML looks like before installing/running it?
Beeing a servant leader is the most easy way to quickly built trust with your team. But in my experience it is not enough in the long term.

You also have to lead people, you have to set goals and follow up on the progress. Sometimes this leads to painfull conversations and disagreements.

But if the goals are achieved in the end you did your job as a manager. This will gain you the trust of your team.

You built more trust as a manager in the long term when you lead a team like that and take accountability for the results.
You can inject dependencies by uploading files and ask it to import them. Works only with Python though
I've come to the realisation that to "use the ribbon" you're just meant to search for stuff. Typing "insert symbol" in the Word ribbon is much faster than trying to find the button.

And ok sure, I admit that's a valid paradigm. When there are a lot of options, you need to support a search function. Witness the Start Menu, or the options dialog in IDEA. Option search is vital once you reach a critical mass of options.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I'm thinking less about mapping (at least, not 'live' mapping) and more about proximity to key exhibits (ie the app says 'hey, you're near X painting' and jumps to the info on that piece. Some of the technical solutions you outline are really interesting (background music!). It may all come to nothing but I'm enjoying investigating and talking to other museum people :)
This is not a thing in Europe where no one uses SMS anymore and so all the fuss around iMessage bubble color simply does not exist.

As a non-neurotypical person myself, I sympathize with your feelings on the article, and felt them myself when reading it. But I also found it to be quite empowering. The truth is, whatever your field of work or interest is, the detail _is_ beautiful, and not everyone gets to experience it.

Don't get me wrong, there's a spectrum (no pun intended) and feeling constantly lost in a sea of details can be really disabling, especially in a social order that demands quick judgements, conformity, and adaptibility to constant change. (No "but" at the end of this paragraph, it just sucks.)
> As an example I work with - Clojure. Sometimes I use agents. I don't write functions for agents, I write functions for things agents might contain.

I'm not following you. Do you have a better example?
This is an interesting dichotomy: analogue vs digital - but I think there’s a third leg to it which is DSP. When your floor is a 1 MHz 6502 and you have a DSP running at many many multiples of that, you can mimic analogue circuits almost perfectly, with identical latency, but better reliability, serviceability, and cheaper parts. The key thing to remember here is that the 2040 is more like a DSP emulating the signals than a regular pi emulating the system. Something as simple as a c64 it should be possible to emulate with DSP indistinguishable from discrete circuits.

The key latencies you describe (frame buffer, audio) aren’t really an issue in the DSP scenario. Also, non linear components like the SID are going to be harder to reimplement in discrete circuits and in fact I’d expect DSP would do better.

DSP wins every time in all domains. Problem is you need to have a much more fine-grained knowledge of the physical underpinnings of the system, not just the system itself.
> I wonder if it'll ever come back to bit them in the ass.

It already has been biting them. There was a leaked memo last year about how they're exhausting the labour supply in many of their warehouse markets. And while there hasn't been a memo as such, people I know who are still there say it's been borderline impossible to hire good engineering candidates for the past few years. A former teammate said he was being pulled into interview blitzes where they'd interview six candidates in a day, then the recruiter would apply as much pressure as humanly possible to "just pick one and say yes."
The "Europe" does not exist as an entity like the "US". There is no single main language, there is no centralized military, no venture capital market like in the US, there is no single currency (the UK for example is no longer in the EU and never integrated deeply, especially not the currency), ...

There is the EU, but even there the integration is weaker and one of nation states with their own kings, presidents, prime ministers, chancellors, ... The EU 'president' is in no way comparable to the US 'president'. The EU military is not like the US military.

Diesel engines run at higher compression ratios, 20:1 vs. 10:1 IIRC, resulting in higher thermal efficiency, and they also don't need a throttle valve, meaning there is no pumping loss at partial loads. The higher compression ratio also means they must be stronger (heavier and more expensive).

Modern gasoline engines have a few more tricks though and reduce the gap (like very high top gear, direct injection etc.).
Git does seem to be that.

WordPress for landing/marketing pages only.
I'm going to build it in React Native and there are some libraries that could help rather than have to use a specific app, eg https://github.com/MacKentoch/react-native-beacons-manager

I don't want to do anything invasive like actually track visitors, I just want to be able to offer helpful "You're near X exhibit" type notifications. Obviously if there's a group close together than it may just become annoying/unnecessary - I'll have to figure that out as I talk to the curators.

QR codes are a good backup and would mean that they wouldn't need an app at all (although I would love to build them one!)
That's a great use-case - thank you!

HHKB Studio: The New Happy Hacking Keyboard with TrackPoint
That's exactly one huge point why I do not work with Wordpress on new projects.
I use for example Contao (https://www.contao.org) because it already have everything to build a full website. Yes I also use plugins in this system but it really enhances the core system with some nice features.
To me Wordpress seems to be CMS torture and I do not really understand why so many ppl got hooked on this system.
I hate the price tag but the apple studio display just works. The speakers are nice, the camera works without input, it plugs into my MacBook and I didn't need to change the settings to keep it closed and running. Maybe I'm living in 2005 where all this sounds impossible but I find it really makes it ten times easier to show up to work and just get working instead of fiddling with settings each morning.
I suspect it got downvoted because of the assumption that the only way to get out and wind down is eating out.

Well -- maybe. There are limits on free speech, and while the current regime rests on the concept of corporations having Constitutional rights, there's certainly a robust debate as to whether or not that's a reasonable approach.

(I admit, the challenge here is finding a reasonable line to regulate.)
> pay an unsustainable sum to be king-for-a-day.

I bet Microsoft can afford to spent unsuspecting amounts for way long than ‘a day’. At a certain point due to cheaper hardware and improved optimization GPT-N might become sustainable, by then their competitors might have issues closing the mile wide gap they have to MS/OpenAI.

Determining that you need to do nothing should be done as soon as possible, especially in any system where performance is essential and web apps make more money the better their performance as a general rule.
Woops! You are correct.

Yeah. It seems like directly presenting raw disks to the network means any kind of redundancy would need to be done by whatever device/host/thing is mounting the storage.

And doing that over the network (instead of over a local PCIe bus) seems like it'll have some trade-offs. :/
How a single product made AG1 a multi-million dollar company
I live in a remote village in Australia (well, between two remote villages of some 200-250 people each), and I also grew up in one of the largest cities in the US.

This has not been my experience at all. For example, the people in the area I live now are far more LGBT-friendly, far more accepting of different religions or no religion, etc., than the people I grew up with. This is also reflected in their voting patterns (the area I live routinely votes more progressively than even the most progressive city in Australia).

At the same, they are much more reserved than the people I grew up with. They don't greet me (nor I them) unless we both look up and make eye contact, making it easy to duck your head and just be left alone when you're running errands. (I think this is a mental survival technique for rural areas, because you are constantly running into people you know, and you would lose your mind if you spoke to them all.)

And they never, ever make random conversation with strangers, whereas that was the norm where I grew up. They aren't unfriendly or unwelcoming; they just feel uncomfortable putting other people on the spot like that because it's not a part of the culture here.

I think you are exhibiting some unfounded biases against rural people -- like you have this stereotype of what they must all be like, and now you are unfairly applying that stereotype to people you've never met. It's ironic that bigotry is one of the traits you attribute to them.

I recommend going out into the world and meeting a greater variety of people who live very differently from you. It would help you recognize the shared humanity we all posses and let go of this bitter, insular instinct you have toward outsiders.

In general, I feel like too many developer get caught up in dogma, "best-practices" that are effectively often unrealistic, and tend to adopt extremist way of thinking about the big and / or the small picture.
A lot of the "dev culture" feel like it lacks a sense of pragmatism.
I find it cleans up "conspiracy theory" analysis to clean up the language. "Conspiracy hypotheses" are worthy of consideration, but not belief. Have a stack of evidence? you might have a conspiracy theory, but have you ruled out the other hypotheses?

People are just used to using the term "conspiracy theory" to trash inconvenient ideas that might be true. Wuhan lab funding, leak, and coverup was a conspiracy hypothesis worth consideration.

Ummm.. this is pretty basic stuff. If you don’t know this, you probably shouldn’t be claiming to be a c++ developer.
What do you mean by defensive prompting?
Everyone who uses NVMe-over-network-transport simply does redundancy at the client layer. The networking gear is very robust, and it is easier to optimize the "data plane" path this way (map storage queues <-> network queues) so the actual storage system does less work, which improves cost and density. That also means clients can have their own redundancy solutions that more closely match their requirements, e.g. filesystems can use block devices and implement RAID10 for e.g. virtual machine storage, while userspace applications may use them directly with Reed-Solomon(14,10) and manage the underlying multiple block devices themselves. This all effectively improves density and storage utilization even further.

NVMe-over-network (fabrics w/ RDMA, TCP, ROCEv2) is very popular for doing disaggregated storage/compute, and things like Nvidia Bluefield push the whole thing down into networking cards on the host so you don't even see the "over network" part. You have a diskless server, plug in some Bluefield cards, and it exposes a bunch of NVMe drives to the host, as if they were plugged in physically. That makes it much easier to scale compute and storage separately (and also effectively increases the capacity of the host machine since it no longer is using up bandwidth and CPU on those tasks.)
There’s computer science and there’s software engineering. The best developers are good at both.

…but in order for this to really matter, communication is required, since even the best developers don’t scale.
It depends on the team. If you have a team with experienced people, they may well have useful input to give on changing the direction of things, and facilitating consensus is more important IMO.
The checkout/reset concept is severely and confusingly overloaded/overlapping. Addition is confusing as well, although not to that extent.

Changes can be in many states, and many operations can be applied (all the permutations of: in/off index, deleted, changed, added), but the UX has never been (re-)designed for usability, so that it's extremely confusing to remember what to use.
I don't understand how this is sustainable. The fuel is still being combusted and releasing CO2 isn't it?
I think don't try to memorize the big-Os. Just read through a basic DS&A text, and see the standard structures: vectors, trees, linked lists, hashmaps.

If you can picture them in your mind using blocks and arrows, the big-Os fall out of them naturally. To find an element, do you have to follow one pointer, then another? Do you have a choice at each junction? Is it contiguous? Hashmaps you have to convince yourself that it is indeed constant time, but once you get it you won't be in doubt.

Do the same for "what if I have to rearrange it, adding or removing an element?" and you get a bunch of other logical big-O answers.

There's a bunch of things made up of these things (LRU cache) and you can similarly logic your way to the answer, but I don't think I've come across an algo problem that isn't just a mash of these basic structures.
I question why leaving behind a legacy is important.

Personally, if I leave nothing in my wake (as far as practicality allows) when I die I will be very happy. Leaving behind a legacy only inconveniences whoever it is who has to pick up the reins and clean up after me.
I'm not a webdev by trade, so when I wanted to write a quick cute portfolio for my sibling I opted for ClassicPress. It's a fork of the last WP version that still featured the normal editor. Creating themes for it turned out to be straightforward thanks to the abundance of templates, tutorials, and examples available for these old-school WP themes. And PHP isn't so bad, too.

The only thing I found myself yearning for is more of an "as code" - i.e. having all of ClassicPress' config stored in a handful of version controlled files, rather than fragilely in a web UI. But for my humble needs, it sealed the deal perfectly. Boring is good!
> Couldn't that possibly be mistaken by countries around the world as an icbm launch [?]

"Col Sanders, we've just detected an icbm launch from the middle of the pacific ocean!"

"Who launched it?"

"Err... no idea". <-- probably the important point ;)

At which point these theoretical observers would probably be trying to get some kind of visual on the object, plus likely trajectory, etc.

Barring some really unfortunately co-incidents / accidents, they'd hopefully realise it's not an icbm.
Many people here have said something about the naming, and you keep repeating that it's "monkeypatch.py" in response as if it fixes it. Maybe take the advice and just rename it to something while it's still early. You'll have a tough-enough time convincing people to use this novel/odd/unique concept without having the name confusion and bad-will from the community stemming from you appropriating a common term.
Motor oil burns more rapidly than diesel. You'll get more "power" but also less durability.

Burning motor oil happens when your turbo breaks down and puts all your oil via the air inlet to your engine. It's hard to stop that engine until all the oil is used.

Great question! That is one of the ideas that we have on the roadmap and seems quite exciting to us. The general feasibility of switching the function execution over from a LLM to synthesised code depends on the specific use-case and if a deterministic program can solve the use-case well enough (or atleast as well as the SOTA LLMs can). But for all those cases where this could be done, the cost and latency of executing the program would become essentially 0
Why not a SSG, like Jekyll, for that? Isn't WP overkill?
I took EECS, did a masters in analog design and I've only worked professionally making shitty SaaS websites. Making way more money with way less stress while still feeling accomplished that I learned how to do the complex stuff I wanted to know how. Very hard to make nearly as much otherwise.
The issue is really that "Usability" in the sense of "helping people achieve their goals" isn't really a priority for most of these vendors. When they talk about "usability" they really mean: engagement, retention, distinctive branding, and optimising for whatever KPIs are important for their business.

Then there are the economic pressures of supporting multiple platforms, so you get shit like Electron and PWA where for a fraction of the price you can present the same semi-usable interface on different platforms - where it looks like your signature style but doesn't look like any other apps on the platform.
No, just the sphinx. Based on erosion analysis of the head vs. the rest of the body, the indications are that the sphinx is much older the latest work which was done on the head.
I can't speak to the CLI, but the C API is pretty stable in my experience. I just upgraded my ffmpeg dependency from a really old version to 6.1 with zero issues (except a few benign deprecated warnings)
I don't find that a compelling argument :)

If one computational model accepts only assembly code, and another model accepts only C++, it tells us nothing about what is going on inside their black boxes. They could be doing computationally fundamentally equivalent things, or totally different things. We don't know till we look.

My point was really about neural networks in general. The argument is that neural networks include both humans and synthetic ones. The myopic focus on LLMs (because of mainstream media coverage) as they exist now is what limits such arguments.

That is very impressive.

When I was that age I was fooling around with a copy of Lightwave I got from an acquaintance that worked at NewTek (he was friends with the leader of an anime club I attended). I was really proud when I got the most basic little sewer fly through scene done. It took a couple days to render on the family P120 much to the annoyance of the rest of my family.

I know there's a lot more resources now but still, that's incredible. Kid has a bright career ahead.
Nvidia nemotron-3-8B-base-4k
Ugh I hate how familiar the all caps yelling at gpt is. Its like - you've got 128k tokens now just do the damn work and provide an answer! I swear to God if I see "this is a complicated challenge" one more time... Honestly would take a model that was only 60% as good if it was less "lazy" since the model doesn't seem to want to use that extra 40% capability without extra prompt engineering in a way that feels deliberately neutered rather than technologically limited. That's still a tall ask for the competitors though so openai wins for now.

Still insanely cool and useful of course, so I can't wait to see how much cooler it gets when some competition shows up that actually does the thing instead of whining about it. Gonna be a fun few years
