This is a natural market progression and will happen. Most automakers built higher cost, lower volume "premium" products for less price sensitive early adopters. As the product and market matures, costs reduce and more mass market products are available at lower costs (Model S->Model 3 -> Model 2 etc). Used cars also become available over time to increase supply and lower costs for a different market segment.
I think you have misunderstood?

The article is responding to the pattern of yet another custom data model and custom data API (à la Ember).

Instead provide an SQL database (the well proven SQLite) within the front end and use SQL to interact. And sync data from-to the backend DB.

Which one could then slap on a model or ORM layer on top of - should that be one's bent.

It isn't clear how they manage the subscription to data updates/inserts/deletions - it mentions supporting triggers, but that feels icky to me.
I think the lesson is that after firing your CEO and 80% of the organization threatens to quit, then maybe don't do that. Though if MSFT wasn't there for a soft landing ($), not sure the number would be as high as that.
There won't be any incentive to produce even basic grain stocks if the large majority of the population can't afford to eat. See the Great Depression.
the Duolingo's problem it is not because they have a bunch of languages, it is because achieving fluency in a target language it is about been able to produce/generate phrases, and they just move you to consume and sort words and phrases. in the case of any AI Language tutor, the student must produce phrases in order to practice, and that makes them advance in the path to achieving fluency

The medium is the message. It affects how the content is consumed, interpreted, and created.
Exactly. Same with "Damn. We have to drive away our best talent to fill occupancy in the office we already signed a lease on despite rent being a fixed cost that isn't impacted by occupancy." Like, it just doesn't make sense to me.
100% agree if it's your project it's your project. I'm just coming from the perspective of a very team-oriented style where you absolutely want to limit the complexity per file for understanding.

Also I don't envy you reviewing the diffs when you add something that affects e.g. indentation on the file.

Was doing that for ages. I have snippets com and com2 for first and second level full-width headers. Third level is just a comment surrounded by empty or “//“ lines.

“;” cycles through headers.

Never understood that “more import lines than lines of code” style too.
IBM's pay is abysmal though.
F#'s REPL is pretty great as well for these kinds of puzzles. Send Selection lets you highlight up to a certain part midway through a pipeline. This makes debugging without breakpoints very easy, on top of everything else offered by an interactive REPL session!

Also they’re worse for everything else: the poor handling, especially with overpowering, means you’re more likely to get in a crash, etc. Manufacturers have spent billions making them less likely to lose control, roll over, etc. but the physics are unforgiving.

Drivers discount that because they like to think that those are things they control and just won’t do, but every year some fraction of people will hit ice, be distracted or angry, etc.

Ok lower cost.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Mine is the opposite: when I work remotely, I work. There is only measure my work can be estimated: whether I finish my tasks on time or not. But when I'm in the office, there are many distractions and productivity suffers, not to mention the fact that open plan offices are completely unsuitable for zoom/teams calls.
IIRC non-table based layouts are rendered progressively, while table-based layouts have to be loaded fully first, and only then rendered. At the point when this was relevant, the Web was slow (slow connections, slow rendering engines), so one of the primary motivations for ditching tables for layouts was an increase in the perceived page rendering speed, not just a purist quirk.
Yes, exactly! Sadly, there are entire commercial vendors dedicated to selling cleaned up versions of relatively simple cross-tabs. The ACS does extraordinary data surveying, but is less strong at structuring it, especially for analytical use cases.
I'd love to see a map of how it matches up to regional English/British accents and their slang.
CMake prints every file.
Not sure. In the comment I replied to, they mentioned that EV is good 95% of the time. In that case, renting a car, like once a month, for a long range tip would make sense imo. Better yet, public transport, then rent an EV there.
Thanks for sharing a positive experience!

As a user, have you tried any similar CMS offerings at all? Either a totally WYSIWYG page builder like Wix/Squarespace, modern Wordpress with the block editor, a headless CMS, etc.?

Just wondering what your experience is... like is Drupal just "good enough" so you never wanted to switch, or did you investigate several options and choose Drupal because it's better in some way?
The work is based on the SAMed paper and repo, so I'm not re-inventing the wheel, still leveraging best practices. Generally I see a point in keeping things minimal though, anticipating getting gritty with it.
> The yellow roads were a little visually overwhelming for me.

Funny how that works. My experience is similar to OP's that the dark grey roads feel very "heavy" and visually overwhelming. I guess for me the light yellow roads faded into the light colored background a bit more.
Good question.

First to address the main point: why not cache the relevant bits in some kind of local storage. SQLSync plans on doing this, specifically using OPFS for performance (but will have fallbacks to localstorage if needed).

Second to address the question of why not use built in kv stores or browser side databases. One answer is another question: how do you solve sync?

One approach is using a data model that encodes conflict handling directly, like CRDTs. This approach is easier to put into general kv stores, as syncing requires simply exchanging messages in any order. I find this solution is well suited to unstructured collaboration like text editing, but makes it harder to coordinate centralised changes to the data. Centralised changes are nice when you start introducing authentication, compaction, and upgrades.

Another approach is doing something similar to how Git Rebase works. The idea is to let the application state and server state diverge, and then provide an efficient means for the app to periodically reset to the latest server state and replay any unacked mutations. This approach requires the ability to re-run mutations efficiently as well as efficiently track multiple diverging versions of the database state. It's certainly possible to build this model on top of local storage.

For SQLSync, I found that by controlling the entirety of SQLite and the underlying storage layer I was able to create a solution that works across platforms and offers a fairly consistent performance profile. The same solution runs in native apps, browser sessions (main thread or workers), and on serverless platforms. One of my goals is to follow the lead of SQLite and keep my solution fairly agnostic to the platform (while providing the requisite hooks for things like durable storage).
The most obvious edge-case was mentioned by other siblings.

My "edge case" is probably not really even an edge-case though.

SPOILER ALERT ---

My implementation stopped looking when it found a number. So "one2one" or "1twone" and so on, would find the numbers "1,2" and not "1,2,1". There were no examples where a number appeared multiple times in a line AND this affected the first-last pair. So e.g. abc1ninexyz841 would result in 14 in my case but should've been 11.
Again: it's rather implied and quite obvious if you interpret the description as human, but I worked at it from TDD, and the example missed this situation and the actual input had only a relative few of them, so debugging was hard.
Sure. My point is just that "whole cloth" fabrication "right from the beginning" is far too simple an explanation. Anyone fabricating from whole cloth would have made the facts much less inconvenient. Anyone knowing they were making things up would have given up rather than spend decades on the run as reports of the torture and execution of their co-conspirators trickled in.
Any ideas on what kind of hardware this would require to run S2ST?

Important to note that the paper the article is referencing [1] is titled:

"Salad Fingers: Pre-YouTube digital uncanny and the ‘weird’ future of animation"

So, the actual data is about PRE-Youtube weird internet. Baffling why they chose to focus on YouTube instead of Newgrounds like the original paper does

I think I'm reacting like this because I'm actually unaware of anything that originated on Youtube that fits into this category. Youtube just reposted stuff from elsewhere (it's the biggest pirate site on the internet probably).

Edit: The key point is that there is a huge network of weird internet that predated and continues outside of YT. The Absolutely[2] Produced stuff is the standard bearer here

I might have missed it but …

What CPU did they end up selecting?

Cores/RAM/Disk … even GPU since they mention the importance.

TL:DR - newer CPUs TDP is so high, they needed to change from 1U to 2U and that changes economics at a macro level per rack (since you’re density now halves).

I like to say that I have 5 years experience in everything, over the last 35 years, but two of my last three jobs have involved modernizing old codebases, mostly in perl, moving them to modern languages and the cloud, with a short stint in SRE in the middle. I'd love to find another job doing that, or possibly someone who isn't very far along in their DevOps journey, where I can add a lot of value quickly.

I think I could adapt to that. But it would be an interesting experiment.

* I kept accidentally clicking the text to go to github, but I did realize that if you aim for the edge it works a lot more reliably
the '49 War happened the way it did because of the British Jewish Brigade was trained and fought in WW2 and a solid corps of them served as the backbone of the Haganah/Palmach. 5000 Palestinan Jews received British training and gear, many veterans of that unit carried British weapons into the 49 war.

they won the Six Day War (six, not seven), because they received several credible intelligence tip-offs from the US, UK, and other sources related to the huge build-up of Arab forces. they launched an attack and completely caught the Arab militaries off guard before they could launch their own offensive -- which, again, wouldn't have happened without foreign help.

they won the Yom Kippur War because the US military stripped it's divisions on Europe and sent all of the ammo and gear to Israel. In response, the Arab world kicked off the oil embargo, which kicked of a couple decades of economic malaise, basically until the dot-com boom of the 90s.

the IDF punches above its weight, of that I have no doubt, but they only keep winning due to foreign help.
If you get a Tesla it is solved now. The charging is seamless and reliable pretty much everywhere except the very most out of the way places. All the rest though that can't yet use Tesla's charging network I would agree total trash if you want to do a long trip and need charging. This should change in ~2 years when manufactures start making more EVs that are compatible with NACS (aka Tesla's super charger network)

I fear sync'ing databases instead of client server models is one of those - either your sync mechanism will just melt, or there are deep assumptions not met

Equity can even be negative, when considering tax.
I'm fine with the capabilities and the charging side of things, it's the complete lack of (available) competitive PHEVs or full EVs.

> If someone had explained to them back then that such a future machine would be able to play expert-level chess by mere number crunching of a huge list of moves, and that it wouldn't imply any other thinking facultu, they wouldn't consider that to be AGI.

I'd argue the problem isn't how the machine does it, but the fact that you've explained how the machine does it. If you explained exactly how a brain worked, people would say "that's not intelligence, that's a just ion circuity."

(Copying from another post): there are neurons in your eye that see something and send signals out laterally so when they (after a specific time-delay) meet another neuron that is currently seeing the thing, they combine to trigger a signal that can be directly interpreted as movement in a specific direction at a specific arc-speed.

Explain each process in the brain like that and it loses its magic. It actually becomes very similar to the debate between free will and meat robots.
