> If you're just going to put them in front of screens, in school, in after-school care, etc so you don't actually have to devote attention to them then don't have them.

School and aftercare help teach kids social skills and a modicum of independence. Children socializing with a variety of other children is such an important thing, I cannot overstate this enough.

My folks restricted the fuck our of screens when I was a kid, it actively stunted my social life. I didn't see all the shows my friends watched and couldn't relate/participate in these conversations, same with videogames. It was something that took me a while to move past in terms of resentment.

My kids know how much my spouse and I love them. We spend a lot of quality time together with them. Giving a child undivided attention as much as possible is, in my experience, NOT a good thing. Kids then rely on the parent solely for entertainment and distraction. They don't learn how to play independently, or with siblings/other kids. They don't learn to bounce back up after a fall because they know $parent is always there to pick them up, or how to navigate a disagreement with a peer, because $parent is always there to moderate.

> Creating a new generation of people who have to work through the trauma of not really being wanted is best avoided.

Creating a new generation of people who haven't learned how to be independent and self-sufficient is far, far worse. Kids can tell if you love and care about them, it has nothing to do with aftercare.

I strongly disagree with your assessment.

We had a similar situation. I suggested and motivated a few members to have one NixOS server running. I can deploy and debug over there. It's easy for me. But once, there was a problem, and no one else could debug or solve the NixOS problem. Later on, they removed it and went on with the usual deal. (Ubuntu and Windows Servers, + a Few others).

Ask HN: How can you export iPhone Messages (e.g. to a CSV)?
I have a friend who needs to save and document a conversation history in Apple's Messages app for legal reasons, so I'm trying to help her figure that out

I've seen articles from dubious sources recommending different third-party programs that will make sense of this data for you, but I don't know which if any are trustworthy

jq hasn't had much work done to make it fast though.

There's two classes of performance problems:

- implementation issues

- language issues

The latter is mainly a problem in `foreach` and also some missing ways to help programmers release references (via `$bindings`) that they no longer need.

The former is mostly a matter of doing a variety of bytecode interpreter improvements, and maybe doing more inlining, and maybe finding creative ways to reduce the number of branches.
Russia and the U.S. are both thinking that they are acting in their interests. Russia wants to keep away NATO because they fear NATO will randomly destroy their kleptocracy, and the U.S. wants to weaken nations regularly trying to assassinate citizens in western countries.

Traction and stability control, are one of those things I wonder if they aren't negated by human factors.

I have an old 90's tachoma that doesn't even have antilock brakes. It drives a bit like a car when compared with a modern truck, but the rear will slide out even on gentle curves, in the rain it can slide hundreds of feet when stopping (yah pulse the breaks manually), and its narrow and high meaning they roll over if you look at it wrong. One doesn't feel "safe" in it, and you know to maintain a lot of stopping distance, slow down before curves, and generally drive like a 90 year old. I have a much newer tundra. It is a brick on wheels with magic traction control, and it feels glued to the road because of it. Except it is easy to fail to respect it and discover one is simply going too fast into a turn, or a stoplight/whatever, and the antilock and traction control aren't going to save you. The one significant advantage is that you can steer it into a ditch while panicking rather than ramming it straight into oncoming traffic when that happens.

So, i'm betting in the end, the more aggressive driving the turndra encourages by giving people more of a feeling of being in control negates some of the additional safety. It's like power steering lets tiny women (and men) drive massive trucks/SUVs they wouldn't otherwise drive if they had to crank those huge tires holding all that weight manually.

No one would need to control every single bit that passes through the internet. The governments would just need to force most major social media and chat platforms to let them get a peek at user data, and that'd be more than enough to get information on most people.

The other comments about blame outsourcing are absolutely on point, but another reason is that we've done a great job of breeding an engineering culture where anything beyond gluing some overpriced AWS services together is considered too complicated and an absolute no-no to do in-house and should instead be outsourced to "experts" like Okta who are supposedly gods and the only ones allowed to do the stuff.

Every time you suggest anything remotely complicated (that your average sysadmin could and did run a decade ago without making a fuss about it) such as running Keycloak or other $ON_PREM_SOFTWARE_PACKAGE is immediately met with lots of hostility. Of course the cloud companies and other SaaS vendors love this.

It's quite puzzling - one one hand it's encouraged to build overcomplicated FAANG-wannabe engineering playgrounds full of microservices, yet a fairly mundane task of "run this self-contained piece of open-source software, monitor logs and apply reasonable security principles" (that every company did till a decade ago) is now considered out of range of mere mortals.
I don't know if this feels like I'm diminishing your accomplishments, but it's nice to hear your advancement out of CRUD development in your 40s. I'm mid 30s now and have always struggled to get out of this web development rut and jobs that pay $100k despite having 8+ years experience (which is admittedly lackluster) and multiple senior titles.

Thinking in Systems: A Sociotechnical Approach to DevOps
I think the proper term is energy dense.

Efficiency in cars is usually meant to be energy efficiency, energy out over energy in. And electric cars are usually more efficient by most metrics, even if you count the amount of gas an internal combustion engine uses vs the amount it takes an oil fired plant to charge an electric car that drives the same distance (well-to-wheels efficiency).
Great achievement!

You must be consistently getting the world's worst avocados - do you always buy them from the same store? Though it might just be a variety designed for distant shipping that sucks in general.

None of what you described sounds accurate to me but I'm spoiled in the Southwest. Ripe avocados are definitely soft and when I find the rare one that isn't, it's usually a bad avocado altogether (most of the flesh is very tough despite being overripe).
So it sounds like you're agreeing with me -- the power management piece of this system is pretty much the only part that we understand how to do?
No physical requirements are shared to my knowledge. You can glean some info about Trainium (1st gen)'s architecture from the Neuron docs [1], but even then AWS doesn't do nearly as deep dives/whitepapers as Nvidia does for each GPU architecture generation. The architecture is much more specialized for machine learning than a GPU's is (although recent generations like Hopper are adding more and more ML-specific features). If you think about a plain old feed-forward neural network, you do three broad classes of operations: matmul, activation, and reductions. Each Neuron core has a dedicated engine for each of those steps (Tensor Engine, Scalar Engine, and Vector Engine).

This is the tip of the iceberg and all the other zoo of Pytorch primitives also need to be implemented, again on the same hardware, but you get the idea. Never mind the complexity of data movement.

The other Neuron core engine is the piece I work a lot with, the general-purpose SIMD engine. This is a bank of 8x 512-bit-wide SIMD processor cores and there is a general-purpose C++ compiler for it. This engine is proving to be even more flexible than you might imagine.

It seems to work just fine with SIP enabled. I just switched and it seems to be a lot better than Amethyst. Amethyst had a lot of issues with focus follows mouse and dropdown dialogs that seems to just work with Yabai

Seems like SIP is only needed for system dialogs etc so has the same limitations as Amethyst
You're right that Aquinas would have rejected the notion that gods are software installed in the hardware of believers, but he was not a dualist - he advocated a kind of hylomorphism that doesn't map neatly onto contemporary philosophical categories:

(1) abolishing daylight savings time is great and should have been done years ago.

For what it's worth, I don't take that framing of intelligence seriously either. It's useful to have a word to describe the far-future state of the increasing capabilities of Computers.

I'm just saying that I don't think there's any point on that line where we will be comfortable admitting that the machine is "intelligent" or "conscious" or "AGI," or whatever, and that I appreciate attempts to quantify (or at least qualify) what we MEAN when we say that, rather than just goalpost-moving.
Just having fun and speculating a lot here...

IIRC, there was a study that found that when humans are presented with a sufficiently short-lived stimulus, there is correlated localized activity in the brain (ie, the visual processing areas for a sight) but not globalized activity - and the subject is unaware of the stimuli. But when the stimuli is presented for long enough, there is globalized activity - and the person is aware.

It looks like 'becoming aware of a thing' has a lot to do with non-local inference that could involve other unrelated subsystems (which is the main idea in Baar's Global workspace theory, IIUC).

> I've never had an actual conversation with a corporation...

So if you've talked with a support person, maybe you have? If it was a simple issue, the corporation maybe wouldn't be 'aware' (though it could later remember it in the form of chat logs or support tickets).

But if it was a difficult issue? Maybe you got tech support? Maybe your issue found it's way into some team's backlog? Maybe it even changed a product roadmap.

Maybe we talk to corporations all the time - it's just weird fitting the interaction into our mental models of 'conversation'.
Why not do it the old fashioned way and hire a human for this? Humans also have the advantage that they don't just make up answers when they don't know something (or at least if you hire good ones).

I've had good experience hiring support folks and working with them on a shared inbox (we use HelpScout).

I think maybe it's just semantics as long as everyone agrees where the speedup is happening (at the low level language calls).

I noticed that you're pretty hard in the "basic isn't fast, the thing it transpiles to is fast" camp, but still accidentally said "there is a version of BASIC [...] that is lightning fast" which I'm not sure you think? Highlights just how tricky it is to talk about where speed lives

The main reason i started using telegram was that it seems to be the only messenger that allows moving devices between android and ios as needed. Whatsapp and signal, basically lock you into one platform without any option to export or move accounts, which is really bewildering to me. (and no the whatsapp export feature is a scam to counter EU law but it does not work and the migrate to ios feature only works when whiping the ios device) But i have to say i am really amazed how great the app feels and works. Even stupid features like stickers that i never thought about before are so good i use them.
Agreed without the word blackmail, it is out of context and misleading, although techincally accurate.
Technical skills can very much be the barrier to delivering CRUD projects, but it is usually more like troubleshooting, debugging, unscrewing your dev environment, understanding the behavior of your framework and database engine, leaving yourself good log messages, etc.
Not sure why you're getting downvoted, I'm wondering something similar. Anecdotally (and maybe incorrectly), I'd expect people who listen to a lot of indie music to stream more songs per month than those who listen to pop & big label music, which means that big labels would be making less money if they get paid per stream than per user? Obviously there are probably many other factors, I'd love to see the numbers.

I find the explanation easier to believe that "per stream" is a much simpler & transparent system for the artists that causes less outrage towards Spotify[0]. And to cater to big labels, Spotify just increases their specific per-stream rate (as parent's article explains).

Still, it causes issues like the botting ones in the OP. I don't know, it's really hard to make a conclusion here without the actual numbers.

[0] Imagine you get more streams but less money than your friend with the same indie deal, just because his listeners listen to less music overall. You could convince ME that it's fair from an outsider perspective... but probably not an artist who's trying to make a living.
The Myth of Cosmopolitan Cities
Do you know how to join copper pipes? The difference between PEX and PVC? The various pipe fittings and their benefits/costs/tradeoffs? Do you know how high a pipe can rise before you need to add additional pumping?

I'm pretty sure you turn the faucet on, and expect drinkable water to come out, without thinking of what's going on between the source of the water and your sink.

Yet, anyone, given the right motivation, can use and learn all those pieces and parts, and make use of them at whatever competency level they have. You can even make a soccer goal net with PVC.

There is room (and need) in the world for all people to explore, geek out, and use these details. And the people who are passionate about these details, and the intermediate pieces should be cherished, because they are the ones that will understand and fix the intermediary pieces when they break.

Sometimes, making money is not the goal.
The entire irony of this is that all rightwingers are winning local elections by blaming the EU for wokeism, while they do have majority in all the EU organizations so whatever gets through against their tastes it's only through their own failures.

That confused me too. I think they just don't have as nuanced a vocabulary when it comes to the different roles in software development. To them, a software developer is the company that makes the software product, and/or everyone involved in making it, including designers and SWEs.

Figma does have features specifically made for developers rather than designers, but my guess is that's not what they're talking about, they just mean "software people".
