Hey - my name is Isaac Ballone.

I'm passionate about programming, and I'm quick to learn. Most of my experience is in full-stack development, but my interests span all across the board.

I started in software by maintaining waveform code for military radios. I dug deep into legacy C++ code and closely followed strict specifications. From there, I found my way into B2B ecommerce, serving customers all around the world. Then I planned a break to dedicate myself to my own projects!

I released https://messagehighway.com, an SMS service written in Clojure for organizers to easily communicate with their users. I am becoming more involved in the open source community by sharing my libraries and packages on Github (https://github.com/balloneij). I am most proud of Slouch, which is the first idiomatic Clojure interface to Apache CouchDB :).

I love challenging work, I'm quick to learn, and I thrive working in enthusiastic teams.

If you think we would work well together, please reach out via email! You can find it on my resume.
This is a really interesting use case. I could definitely see this as a service for content providers to get more reach and I think you could justify a subscription price for the service based on this.

By keeping creating speaker specific tonal ranges and profiles you maintain the better cohesion on the final product.
I’m more curious who gets to be the new CTO. Van den Brink knows the whole damn machine by heart + the people who made it, gonna be a hard gap to fill.
This title seems to imply that youtube was normal before it was weird, though both reality, and tfa suggest that it was weird before it was normal.

I would love a game that helped you learn a language (not necessarily VR though as I don't have that equipment). The game drops you into a world (a country of the language the game is meant to teach you) where no one speaks your language and you have to figure out what people are saying in order to fulfill quests. You get some hints, like maybe you have a simple translation guide in your inventory or sometimes you meet people who can speak a few words of your language. That would motivate me to learn faster than self-taught tutorials.

I'd love to learn French and the game would take place in locations all around modern France.

It would have to a good story. Maybe something in the style of Professor Layton series could be interesting, or something more open world.
I would rather they just use KDE and make a nice skin that has a similar scheme to Apples. KDE looks sleek on its own, and then make keybindings as close to Apples as possible. Heck, KDE3 used to have a wizard that asked if you were more accustomed to Mac, Windows or Linux, and set your key bindings that way.

You can get insanely close with KDE, and KDE apps all follow a standard UI approach and the theming will transfer over. I'm pretty much convinced that the best DE is KDE for something full feature. If I had an OS with only the apps made for their respective Desktop Environments, KDE would be the winner for me, everything from games to code editors, browser(s?), and what have you.
Isn’t that also where Burnt Face Man is from?
How do you account for colloquial (non-English) language which could be naively misconstrued as toxic?

e.g. "geil" (either cool or horny depending on usage) in German

It's not fundamentally different than e.g. "wicked" in English, but the biggest bias that potentially all these ML models exhibit is predisposition towards Anglophoneism
My understanding is that we can sync any sqlite state to any other sqlite state using custom built replication.

Is this how it works and how does it update all the web components?

Would it work with all the frameworks or a custom framework is needed?

Who's buying those F-150s and how amenable are they to EVs? It's not enough to just look at what's most popular if the underlying demographics are more resistant to EVs on an ideological basis.
> It's insane how much of the world's engineering effort and technology investment money has gone into putting lipstick on a pig.

I'm a JavaScript developer and yes, this is deeply disturbing. Even more so after I built a framework [1] that just copycats what PHP/Rails does (treat the server like a server, and the client/browser like a client—no SPA spaghetti). It works, it's fast, and makes development 100x easier.

I applied the same heuristic to deployments, eschewing all of the containers dogma and lo and behold, you can achieve great performance (and iterative speed) with old school, minimal tech (bare metal/VPS and just install deps and code directly on the machine).

Global outsourcing has been a thing for decades now, and yet there are still software developers in California.

At the end of the day "anywhere on the planet" just isn't true. Language, work culture, time zones, shared educational base, low network latency, and more are all still important in remote work and place strong constraints on how geographically distributed a team can be.

Even splitting a team up between West Coast and East Coast presents difficulties due to time zones -- and that's a case where everything else is more or less identical.

"You should check out this thing" has a very different implied context than "You should check out this thing I made". The first sounds like a recommendation from an enthusiastic user, not from the the author. Because of this, discovering that you are the author makes your recommendation feel deceptive.
Even if it is, the stock is forever illiquid and that comp beyond base salary is a mirage.
It's kind of awkward with that one, because you still have to check the individual patterns; it doesn't give you a multi-match on each pattern.

With the Aho-Corasick implementation you can just map the string -> {ordered list of matches} -> numbers associated with the match, and then you've got a little vec of digits you can grab the first and last entries of. Ended up being just a few lines of code, together with a hard-coded list of ["0", "one", "1", "two", ...] and the numbers they mapped to [0, 1, 1, 2, 2, ...].
That's a "you" problem, though. Why should it affect others? Just don't look at it.
The operations themselves are fine but the code style gets in the way of readability.

A simple 4-line function instead of the 6-7 methods allows for the same functionality, the same level of encapsulation and for the same testability, without the “jumping around”.

Here's the original text I inputted into ChatGPT that generated the code above:

def create_user(email)
user = User.create(email)
user.roles << Roles.find_by(name: 'admin')
user.permissions << Permissions.find_by(name: 'invite')
Templates.find_by(name: 'invite').call(user: user)
end

Pretty much anyone writing this kind of class would be able to understand the same code if it were written in a 4-line function in one glance. This here, however severely obscures the intent, the code flow and the operations.

It's more than hundreds of millions: over 2 billion journeys are made on the network per year. It's roughly 10 times what Japanese HSR does per year (195 million journeys), and 1000 times what the one American HSR route does (2 million, and only 50 miles of track at that speed).

In 2013, it moved twice as many people as domestic air travel. Today, it's more like 5 times. It's not exactly an unused ghost railway system.
Ember.js has had more innovations contributed to modern framework ideas than any other framework, really.

EmberData, Ember Routing, Ember Multi Applications (can't remember what its called, but its a precursor to microfrontends) all in one CLI tooling etc.

I could never understand what holds Ember back from being more used. I think it used to be performance but I think they addressed that with Glimmer many years ago.
Of the criticisms to Piketty, not having done the math isn't really one of them.

I don't have Capital and Ideology close at hand, so I can't check how he worked it out, but consulting some other sources:

- the top 1% in the US apparently have around $45.7T in wealth [1]

- there are around 22M people in the 20-24 age bracket and 23 in the 25-29 age bracket [2]

So suppose there are 5.5M people turning 21 every year. Giving them each $100k (yes, less than the Piketty proposal for the EU, but in the ballpark, and gives us round numbers) would cost $550B/yr at present. If this were funded as a flat wealth tax only on the top 1%, it would amount to around a 1.2% wealth tax, not accounting for evasion etc. So literally, 99% of the population could pay more in taxes, the 1% would be taking a hit, but honestly so long as long-term average returns are more than 1.2% above inflation, you could still have inter-generational wealth that gets bigger over time.

Of course, many would naturally prefer for a wealth tax to be progressive; the ultra-rich should pay a larger share than the pretty-rich. This would have the impact of shrinking long term dynastic piles of wealth, but not fully eliminating them, and reducing the impact on people at the low end of the 1%.

I used to work for a competitor of ASML.

You do not want to screw up deals with this kind of kit. The price tag of a single order can be nine digits, and it needs to be kept BSL4 clean, from first baseplate, to final install.

I heard about our company selling a whole line of steppers to a Korean company. They had to be flown out in special 747s, because BSL4, and installed on site.

Then, the customer's company went belly up.

They cut the power to the fab (Maybe like this?[0]).

The statement, algebraically, was (China's food imports from "this region") / (China's total food consumption).

Other answers have provided more than enough detail on this.

Probably she meant (China's food imports from "this region") / (China's total food imports)

Where "this region" means Brazil, not just the disputed province.

The 500W is an estimate for the next generation CPUs so we have to speculate, but yes the performance per watt should make sense unless those products are awful. Thus far every EPYC generation has been substantially better performance/watt but the top-end power draw has gone up because the number of cores has gone up. EPYC 3 (Milan) maxed out at 64 cores but EPYC 4 maxes out at 96 (Genoa Zen4) or 128 (Bergamo Zen4c). So you get twice as many cores, faster cores, and much less than twice the max power draw (~240W > ~360W). The highest core count CPUs tend to be the most efficient as well because you amortize the relatively static power draw of the IO-die (and the other parts on the motherboard) and because they tend to have lower more efficient clock frequencies.

It's pretty safe to assume the situation will be the same with next generation EPYC 5 CPUs with maybe 192 or 256 cores, higher power draw, but more efficiency.

pgxn is a network of extensions but is far from being an extension manager. An extension manager would IMHO include building the extensions, distributing built artifacts, and managing their lifecycle (upgrade/delete etc.) This is the gap that pgxman tries to fill. When you run `pgxman install EXTENSION`, it installs the prebuilt extension to your system.
PHEV's are significantly less reliable, though. HEV's and PHEV's should have a similar level of reliability. The difference is that HEV's are mostly Toyotas and PHEV's mostly aren't.

My impression is that non-Toyota hybrids are significantly less reliable than gasoline cars, but the article doesn't give enough data to tell for sure.

Onyx is entirely independent from Wasmer. It is a separate project developed by me, over the past 3 years. It does however use Wasmer for running on Windows, MacOS, and optionally on Linux.

I started making Onyx because I simply wanted to create my own programming language for the fun of it. I choose WebAssembly as the target for my compiler because it was relatively easy to write my own full-stack solution, instead of relying on something like LLVM. That language evolved over the years until I had something I felt was worth sharing. When the Wasmer team reached out to see if I wanted to do a collaboration blog post, I said yes.

The main reason I didn't go with LLVM was simply because I wanted to write everything myself (for fun) and to have a super-fast compiler. LLVM is not the fastest backend, but it is understandable for all the optimizations that it does.
Yep this is really good stuff.

The only concern I have is around making things more efficient server side.

For example if you have an expensive DB query that's not really cacheable, you can use streams and frames to only have that query execute once on the first page load but then you can navigate between pages that only load in a different frame.

A good example is something like a video course platform with a video frame, table of contents area and another frame below the video to load specific things like questions, references, show notes, etc.. As you click links in the table of contents, it loads new content in the video frame but the questions wouldn't change and you also don't need to re-render the table of contents either. You get to skip querying and rendering views for all of those expensive things.

With Turbo 8, if you used the new approach you would be rendering non-cacheable very expensive queries and views on every page transition. I want to use Turbo 8's features so much but for the biggest and most complex aspect of my app I don't realistically see how I can. The bookkeeping pain on manually updating 5+ areas of the page and writing a bunch of stream hooks which is multiplied as you add more actions is real though.

I'm hoping as Turbo 8 gets more mature new patterns will emerge to let us get the best of both worlds (performance and complexity compression).

There are projects that set up "fat" Python executables or portable installs, but the problem in PyTorch ML projects is that the download would be many gigabytes.

Additionally, some package choices depend on hardware.

In the end, a lot of the more popular projects have "one click" scripts for auto installs, and there are some for Fooocus specifically, but the issue there is its not as visible as the main repo, and not necessarily something the dev wants to endorse.

I don't have that connotation for the word and I'm not sure I can find support for it either.

If I have 5 objects and five people and I give one to each that's a distribution. If I give them all to one person, that's a distribution. If I start with the first distribution and concentrate all of the items to one person, creating the second distribution that's still the same distribution.
Good luck getting approval for propane as a refrigerant in the US. I think it's recently got approved for small systems like 5k BTU or less but that's a really small window unit. (Sealed units that can never be serviced, this making more waste)

When the whole cfc ozone thing was the "crisis of the the moment" it was already known that propane was an excellent refrigerant and could have replaced r12/r22 in most applications with no modifications. Did we do that? Nope, we doubled down are more regulations for more expensive systems, because money!!!! and who cares if the new refrigerants have a greater overall environmental impact. If they used something simple, cheap and readily available like propane they could stop people from using these older units or from continuing to service them themselves.
