Except that those situations were materially different from the current situation in two huge ways:

1. The architecture they're migrating away from is the dominant architecture in the market (both now and for the past few decades), meaning that rather than simply losing support for older MacOS software, they'd be losing access to easy virtualization of everything Windows and Linux can do.

2. The architecture they're migrating to is their own, 100% in their control, meaning that they can maintain hardware-level support for this translation layer without needing to convince any other company to put that effort in on each subsequent chip generation.

Now, does this mean they're guaranteed to maintain Rosetta 2 forever? No, of course not. I don't know what Apple's going to do any more than you or viktorcode do.

But it does mean that seeing this transition as being exactly a mirror of the past 2 architecture transitions they did is dangerous, at best.
zsh makes this so much easier. This doesn't capture $i, but covers most use cases of "I want to run something more than once":

repeat 10; echo "repeat me"

If you do need $i you can use a similar construct as bash, but more convenient:

for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); echo $i

for i in {0..10}; echo $i # {n..m} loops also work in bash

for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); { echo $i; echo $i } # Multiple commands

Short loops are hugely helpful in interactive use because it's much less muckery for short one-liners (whether you should use them in scripts is probably a bit more controversial).

Also looping over arrays "just works" as you would expect without requiring special incantations:

arr=(a b)
for v in $arr; echo $v

---

Whether zsh or fish is better is a matter of taste, and arguably zsh has too many features, but IMHO bash is absolutely stuck as a "1989 ksh clone" (in more ways than one; it uses K&R C all over the place, still has asm hacks to make it run on 1980s versions of Xenix, and things like that).
As a bay area native, i believe he did a good job. I’ve spent my life volunteering in the community, and i think my most radical take is that i don’t hate street criminals because i mean the life is miserable. Its easy and understandable to fear being robbed (been there), but really, those kids get murdered quick. Nobody i grew up with that wanted to live crazy made it past 21.

I’ve always felt that the increase in crime was a direct result of the fucking rent. Its been empty for a minute now, it reminds me of disneyland in the sense that people all go in to shop and work but leave back home at night, leaving a ghost town. So it’s community got weak, lost the electorate to protect itself.

I do get frustrated by outsiders making fun of us. Its a complex problem that you can’t solve with a gun like some other commenters are suggesting. Try saving a life for once and then get back to me on how to make my city less miserable. I also get frustrated by the outsider voyeurism that comes with suffering.

I like how another commenter put it. Its as if we took a really painful fall off a cliff, alone. The only way out is to slowly crawl back up.

Re: the hype-cycle - it's important to call out that not every technology has much of the last two phases. I'd say VR's first ride (starting back in the late 90s) is a great example of this, where all that was left after the hype-wave was a tiny, highly-specialized set of uses.
For the first, I prefer range syntax:

In this case though they've been observed over the past 30 years at at least 4 different detectors, which provides independent confirmation across multiple different research groups. It is very unlikely to be a "oops we didn't plug the cable in firmly" kind of situation. It would need to be something fundamental about the design of these detectors, which has been replicated four independent times, which has completely escaped the notice of physicists for >3 decades (which includes 3 decades worth of grad students incentivized to take a look at the problem with fresh eyes and make a name for themselves by explaining it all away).

Wow, thank you for posting this. I’ve been kinda curious to try Fish over the years, but seeing this message from one of the maintainers – how mature and well-reasoned, how both charmingly joking and firmly assertive it is – now really gets me thinking that I’ve been missing out on using an excellent project.
Sort of, but not really. Obviously it's possible for the man to be the care giver, but there is a significant unavoidable amount of time required by the mother through pregnancy and recovery that makes it more logical for men to be primarily in the non-caregiver role, but sure it does violate some people's narrative even it's been the majority case since the inception of humanity.

I do hope that between M-series SoCs and AMD APUs, it becomes normal and expected for mainstream computing devices across the board to have reasonable graphical capabilities without the unavoidable heat, power hunger, and added cost of a discrete GPU. There’s not much reason for iGPUs to be as weak as we’ve become accustomed to with Intel CPUs.

The benefit from this happening would be twofold: it gives a much wider spread of users access to hardware that can deal well with moderate graphical workloads and it provides a common minimum spec for game devs to keep in mind that’s actually powerful enough to deliver a decent experience (as compared to now, where iGPUs are near writeoffs for anything but esports titles).
It is kind of telling that they thought porting to c++17 is "too much of a hassle" but rewriting everything in a new language isn't! Sorry, you're never ever going to beat "we did it to chase the new shiny" which is the story across the dev world.

I once spent a while adding timings between each item in my zsh config files to find what was slowest.

The nvm init was the worst of it, so now I have an alias for
`$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" && \. $NVM_DIR/bash_completion` I just run manually before using nvm, rather than letting it slow me down half a second or whatever it was every time I open a new terminal.

It's worth poking around if things get slow enough to be a pain. There's a decent chance it's 1-2 things that you don't even care about all that much.

Definitely Hamiltonian Monte Carlo / NUTS for the last few years. From both a practical standpoint and theoretical perspective, I see no reason why it doesn't scale to millions of parameters if you have enough GPUs. Stuff like Gibbs samplers and Metropolis-Hastings tends to run into issues once you get beyond ~100 parameters, sometimes more with clever graph structure.

I am also really interested to see if CHEES HMC (https://proceedings.mlr.press/v130/hoffman21a.html) makes it as a viable in-the-wild inference technique since it gets around the nastiness of writing NUTS as a recursive algorithm on hardware (GPU / TPU) generally not friendly to that type of control flow.
Pretty ridiculous especially when all of the advertising of those computers is designed to be utterly confusing and impossible to compare for the customer. One could easily picture a 70% off sale on a computer with a different sku and a made up "regular price" advertised as a deal, it's basically how the industry operates. So it's funny to see HP claim she should have known better.

Edit: here is a US example, advertised as "Save 75%" https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/hp-elitebook-x360-1040-g8-... (I have no idea if this is a good deal or not, point is that such "savings" are a common occurence)
yes but there's no way a customer would know to check in the menu in the way they've implemented it to know that the call is valid unless they already knew about it. at which point the customer outreach is the same.
It's quite absurd to assert that ELIZA from 1966 outperformed GPT-3.5.

Sure, it deceived 27% of the participants at the time, but that was largely because those participants were unaware that such a program could exist.

I would bet good money that if GPT-3.5 could have magically interacted with those 1966 participants, it would have fooled most of them, as it would have been inconceivable for a computer to exhibit such capabilities then.

This raises questions about the relevance of the Turing Test, since simply being aware of a system's capabilities can shift the expectations of what participants anticipate in an AI system.

In 2023, GPT-3.5 fools nobody during a Turing Test, yet it would have passed it with flying color in 1966. If ELIZA had fooled more people and passed the test in 1966, and no longer in 1967, would have we learn something ?

I don't think the Turing Test is teaching us anything about AI system capabilities. On the opposite, it's about the expectations and perception of the human subjects that it tells us something.

It's like the saying that AI is whatever we haven't figured out how to do yet. Once it's well understood, it's no longer considered AI.
Along the same lines, in the Windows world:

The current directory is managed with SetCurrentDirectory/GetCurrentDirectory, however the cmd.exe command-line shell also stores the current directory for each drive in an environment variable like "=C:", and the CRT and shell hides all environment variables that start with a "=".

It gets mightily confused if these two concepts of current directory ever diverge.
It's pretty clear to me that even to HP employees, that bargain wasn't "too good to be true". And putting them through all that crap over it? Yeah, no.
Your example in fish:

for i in (seq 10); echo $i; end

directly translated to bash:

for i in $(seq 10); do echo $i; done
I wouldn't be that enthusiastic about it. Best I can say is that it is not terrible. In simplified terms, all it does is download exe files from URL addresses that it gets from yaml metadata files, and then silently executes them; which in turn means that it leaves all of the installer's checkboxes unmodified, cluttering your desktop with icons in the process. On top of that, Windows Terminal has been failing to update on my machine as of late. I don't think this should be the standard for a first-party package manager, but I'd say it's par for the course for Microsoft.

It's also worth noting that all of Winget's code was initially taken from AppGet, without much recognition.[1] Apparently Microsoft cared just enough about that detail to mention the project they forked in passing, as part of a list of third-party package manager projects for Windows.[2] This is why, IMO, you should always first consider a copyleft license for an open source project.

Sending it from an iPhone, no. Sending it from a smartphone, yes. Palm VII could access the web, with limitations, in '99. Expansions were available for earlier devices.

That same year I worked on a iPad-like tablet (we were not first, nor did we have any illusions that we were) with a built-in phone.

Treo 90 (2002) provided a Palm OS PDA with a phone (but also a keyboard).

There were many other similar devices around then.

There was a whole multi-year fad of touch-focused smart devices that rose and died again because the hardware wasn't consumer-ready years before the iPhone.

Anyone around then with an interest in tech will have been aware of a wide range of app-capable devices that frankly made the first iPhones rather underwhelming to most power users.

The genius of the iPhone was to time the release right at a point where the available hardware was good enough to attract regular consumers, not in inventing something particularly new. That doesn't diminish what Apple did, but this idea that what they did was something revolutionary that wouldn't have happened in some variant without them is bizarre.

Before the pandemic, there was bad stuff (in particular poop all over all the sidewalks) but there was relatively more good stuff because white collar workers commuted in on the weekdays and (at least) bought lunch. Post-pandemic, it’s all gone, so crime etc now has outsized leverage.

Uber eats and Doordash have had a particularly negative impact, not just that stolen car in the video. Restaurants are strangled and Uber both raises all prices and cuts into margins when the order load doesn’t scale. Even the original Little Star on divisadero is now closing due to Uber gouging. Combine with the fact that the drivers are out-of-town unsafe drivers and block roads everywhere, makes the suburbs look more appealing.

These languages put forth ideas that are extremely powerful. They might be unconventional from an imperative programming lens, but to call them all “complex” as a justification for discarding them entirely is pretty shallow.
It does have DMA but this only speeds up data transfer.

You are probably thinking of PCI bus mastering, where the PCI slave temporarily takes control of the bus to read and write main system memory.

This still exists in PCIe and thunderbolt, which is why bus mastering can be a security risk.

CF poses no such risk.
PCMCIA I don't think does either, since it is effectively a stripped down ISA. Later PC laptop cards look very similar but are actually CardBus, which is basically PCI.

CardBus does support bus mastering. And the later Express card did too, in its PCIe forms

Having spent a while searching to no great success, I'd really like to see flexibility/bend radius listed as well; though naming for sizes is enough of a problem so I won't hold my breath.

I'd like to Velcro an Sandisk extreme SSD or two to the back of a 16" MBP but I'm failing to find a USB-C cable that's short enough to not get snagged and flexible to not drag on the port (the one supplied with the SSD is stiff enough to stab someone).

The Anker 643 silicone USB-C cables are fantastically flexible and would be the perfect consistency, but they're only 1.5/3m and only USB2 speeds (100w power though). Can anyone recommend anything or are you doing similar?
> If I grab a random model from Hugging Face, will it accelerate?

Probably, it depends more on how you configure the inferencing software. Most software that supports acceleration starts with CUDA or CUBLAS, so you should be good.

> If I run Blender, kdenlive, or DaVinci Resolve, will it accelerate?

Yep. If you're running Linux, some distros might be a little iffy about shipping the proprietary/accelerated versions of this software, but most are fine. The Flatpak versions should all have Nvidia acceleration working out-of-box, if you do encounter any issues.

> Is there a line where things break?

Yes, but you can avoid it by choosing smaller quantizations and giving yourself a few gigs of VRAM headroom. In my experience, it's always better to select a model smaller than you need so you're not risking an OOM crash (I've got a 3070ti).

Lotta other great advice in this thread, though! Good luck picking something out.
So, according to the article "a contract was formed", but despite that HP gets away with just giving them "20% off"?

If there really was a contract he should sue HP to honor it, my understanding is in the UK loser pays legal fees, so if he's sure about contract law there's no downside (I would suggest double checking the law on this though).

No it really isn't. The Turing test is just not an adequate methodology to determine intelligent behavior, and never was. This was already known way before generative ML models emerged.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test#Weaknesses

Just to pick my personal favorite, which is mentioned at the end of the article: This function right here can, technically, pass the Turing-Test:

def generate_answer(in: str) -> str:
return ""

How? Simple: A human can just chose not to respond to any question. So, if a program does exactly that, that is, meet every query with silence, how do you differentiate it from a human who does the same?
You were brought in to make the team perform. What does that mean to the people who brought you in? How will they measure it? What tools did they give you to make it happen?

It's a small team that is known to be in trouble. Does the team know this?

Go to the team and explain the situation and ask for input about what they think should be done. Guide the team to a shared sense of the values you're all going for. Is it delivering on time? Best quality? Calm work environment? Surviving til retirement? ...

These values will lead to agreed to team standards. Anyone not getting on board with the team standards needs to go. You're involved in a team effort. Team members will show they're on board through their work.

It sounds like you have a particular problem reviewing/accepting work. Establish a procedure. It's best if you can point to best practices, such as

https://www.codingblocks.net/podcast/googles-engineering-pra...

Depersonalize the process. It's about the work. Either the work passes muster or it gets held up until it is acceptable. Since your team has not been performing, expect any non-performer to argue that the reason they're not getting stuff done is that you are a perfectionist or some such.

This guy gets angry. That is a problem, is completely unacceptable, and shows a real lack of maturity. Make sure you remain calm and do not respond to it. You should make sure to document this behavior, let him know it is unacceptable, and make sure your management knows you're dealing with a person with anger management issues.
