My very modest claim to "fame" is having founded the Elastic UI Framework [1]. My experience with these kinds of design systems taught me two lessons:

1. You'll iterate towards the most useful version of your design system in the least amount of time if maintainers spend time consuming it, and vice versa.

2. Code is the source of truth, in the form of the component library. It's an unhelpful fiction to treat the non-code design system (whether that's in Figma, Sketch, or wherever) as the source of truth. This is because people build out new parts of the UI by copying, pasting, and modifying the code of the existing UI. If you want to make a change to the design system, it has to go into the code to make a difference.

In reality, it's like someone being given the opportunity to retire before being fired. It's a polite chance to take ownership rather than it being forced. Apparently Tesla has to be forced.

As an owner with Auto Pilot I don't know how to feel. It's most likely just going to make the product more annoying / less useful rather than inherently safer.

I mean, you can't install radar through an OTA, so... :(
> The ad-free internet has already been here for a long time

> Don't worry about sustainability. There was life before YouTube and Facebook and there will be life after

Which is it? The point is that this version of the ad-free doesn’t actually exist in the long run. In a discussion about a move away from the “false economy” you highlight via paid subscriptions (presumably not a false economy), it seems odd to say that this already exists while also admitting that it doesn’t/can’t.
DRM is not merely a technological issue; it's a legal one as well.
> Also, ads make life for many people.

What?
Sounds more competent and sane than ~99.5% of articles I've seen on these subjects...not that that's a high bar.
I could be wrong. Maybe the majority are those sorts of local businesses.

What I never seem to see is local businesses I actually want to visit. The cool vintage stores, the goth stores, the retro game shops, the hole-in-the-wall Filipino restaurants, the local craft supply stores, the cat cafes, the weird toy stores, the artisan candy stores, the dubious bone and bone decor shops, the gay book stores, the Japanese import stores, the handmade ceramic planters store... you get the picture. The lifeblood of a city is not what's on its billboards.
A publishing house owning a newspaper famous for not sticking to the facts.

Software not knowing what are facts.

Sounds like a good match, what could possibly go wrong...
Earlier this year, becuase of some legal issues, his 'business critical' data was now only stored in one place, that was telling him it was locked, and over quota.

And he has made no attempts to fix that.
I worked at Google from 2012 to 2022 and this didn't match my experience, for what it's worth. There were some people who coasted, but it was not common. There were a lot of people who got much less done than you might expect due to bureaucratic friction, but my coworkers were generally very enthusiastic to take on important things.
Yeah, I probably overstated this here. I think it's more common than in most industries, but I don't have stats to determine what the actual "norm" in tech is, or how it compares to elsewhere.
>Maybe you are an enlightened individual and want to put an end to consumerism and society. In the meantime I personally still buy things and shop.

Do you really see the removal of advertising from public space as this much of a threat to your way of life? Your sarcastic remark about ending consumerism and society sounds quite hateful towards people who don't want to see advertising, whereas (speaking from myself at least) I feel no hate at all towards people who don't mind ads. My preference for not viewing ads comes purely from my own personal annoyance that I experience whenever I see them, it does not come from any kind of hate or dislike towards people like you who don't mind them, and I don't really want to change anyone's lifestyle.
I believe, but could be wrong, that the differentiating factor is that coke from Mexico is made with sugar.
What Does Ggml actually Do
Just wondering, what does it do, and why the model providers didn't already provide it, if that's such relevant
Yeah, employees are kinda unfirable which has good sides and bad sides. People don't have to worry about their existencr, but that also means you don't need to do more than the bare minimum. Which many do, and in some way it's a comfortable lifestyle. OTOH you won't find any German companies paying close to what Netflix pays.
The Linux kernel received a new scheduler not too long ago (https://lwn.net/Articles/925371/), so I'm not sure how relevant the critiques about CFS are.
The tweet seems to contradict the screenshot.
But those articles in no way gives one the right to harm the rightholder's business practices. For example by exposing them to public criticism. That potential limitation is implied in both 5.3 and 6.2.a.

I don't know what other provisions of EU law might apply here. But it is literally the job of the lawyers issuing the threats to find potential gotchas like that. I would assume that they are competent.
If it doesn't it's highly illegal under California law, and I'm pretty sure Federal law. Hasn't stopped Uber before, but hey, another lawsuit to get the workers paid would always be cool.
Yes, by "free to" I mean it's legal to.
I edited my original comment to expound. The "evidence" he cites is incredibly thin, in my professional opinion.
- Coding assistance

- DevOps/sysadmin assistance (eg. "how do I do $action with $thing (eg. Ansible)")

- Improve writing/correct spelling (via AI actions in Raycast. Select text, launch action). Here I try to willfully inspect its improvements so I can get better at communicating without the aid of AI. Also sometimes AI is wrong.

- Write email polite rejections (again via AI actions in Raycast. Select text of email wanting something, launch action, AI writes a polite rejection, I click send.)

- Summarize emails/articles/essays/etc.

I'd survive without it, of course, but it really helps speed things up every day.

Holding the railway system hostage should make even the most short-sighted realize that DRM is an assault on national sovereignty.
This is probably good advice, but it's not exactly "sovereign" at that point.

That's an insane statement given the unprecedented success of SpaceX.
Does the granulation really matter here?
> When I say rote, I’m thinking about how parts of the underlying toolkit have become really easy, how pretty much any designer can work on one, and how the general idea of a design system has become understood such that it’s a reasonable expectation that a team will have one.

As opposed to, you know, the meaning of the word "rote."
People in the 90s and early 2000s would put content online and not think even once that a future AI might get trained on that data. I wonder about people prompting with threats now: what is the likelihood that a future AGI will remember this and act on it?

People joke about it but I’m serious.
Thank you for fast.ai. I'm glad the sweet VC is moving to smaller players to increase the diversity of ideas instead of it all being captured by OpenAI.

The world needs more players doing tinkering. AI is only going to work for everyone if everyone knows how it works and can tinker with it, instead of only the big corps and governments having access to it.

We need all of Mistral, Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta FAIR, MS Research, Deepmind, Tinycorp, Answer AI, Perplexity, Stability AI, Huggingface and 1000 others to be GPU rich and idea rich.

We need NVidia, AMD, and 100s of other Chip makers. We need Huawai, Xiomi, Samsung and tons of others to be players.

AI only works if it is highly distributed and battle tested by many. We die when power is held by the few to oppress the masses.

Well, whether or not fatherlessness is the actual cause (and I believe there is abundant evidence that it is), it seems very likely that partially rewinding the societal changes that have led to widespread fatherlessness are going to have a positive effect on crime.
And yes, I'm talking about the sexual revolution.
Stephen Jay Gould said it best:

> I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
That might be true, but it takes toooo much salt. So I prefer to salt after cooking, right before eating because it requires way less and gives roughly the same effect.

The reason a chef "knows this" is because if you judged their food with or without salt, the salt one would win, so in the end they're required to add waaay to much salt, when the tongue just needs those surface crystals.

Healthier to salt after, and therefore cook your own food.
Because correlation does not imply causation.
Yeah I've heard several people report similar "little off but I love it" feelings when visiting here in Maine. The obnoxious billboards always bugged me around Chicago as a kid, but my kids enjoy the novelty when traveling. Similar with TV: we got a digital bunny ear and they were all excited about the commercials, as they've seen so few in their lives (YouTube Premium, streaming, discs/drives, etc.).
Rockstar is notorious for crunch, or overworking and poor conditions, especially near the end of a project life. There are a lot of horror stories about games like red dead redemption 2, you'll find an overwhelming amount of articles about this if you Google it.
Really, book covers were getting terrible by the late 90s and early Aughts. I remember the especially cringeworthy period where a few female Asian-American writers got semi-autobiographical books out, and the publishers slapped vaguely arty photos of bowls of rice on them.
@chris-tsang My debugging anecdotes usually involve analysing subtle failures in C code.

Those are typically days or weeks of staring and trying out different things, followed (eventually) by enlightenment. It's usually been kernel-level code (or equivalent) for me, so there are minimal conveniences / safety features available.

C makes it easy to get crazy stories because of all the ways threading or memory access can go horribly wrong. These are notorious for creating "impossible bugs". Is there an equivalent "argggh, no!" in Rust, where things are better controlled?

re the visualisation in FireDBG:

Your visualisation is really cool. I just saw it shared by some of my colleagues - we also do time travel but quite differently to you.

Debuggers are usually like looking at your program through a microscope, plus some commands for moving the microscope to different places. But that's not always what's wanted (and certainly not always what makes sense to newcomers).

Using people's spatial reasoning to help understand what's happened is quite exciting. I'd argue one of the reason that printf-debugging is so popular is because you get a clear, visual idea of roughly what happened in what order.
Similar when you bake a cake. Sugar galore. Inflammation galore.
> All my work is probably like 50GB, but I have it backed up on an external drive AND the cloud.

> It's like self preservation instinct is missing.

And if, as happened in TFA, you are raided by the FBI and all your local computer hardware (which includes your external drive) is confiscated as evidence and hauled away to an FBI warehouse somewhere, you will have only that cloud backup left. This is where the journalist found themselves.

And then, after the FBI raid, if the cloud then says they are dropping you and deleting your cloud data, what backups do you now have (remember, your external drive is still in the FBI warehouse somewhere as "evidence")?
I read this article yesterday, helped me a bit. My 62yo father was recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma when a vertebrate in his back basically disintegrated. Spent his whole life as a fine finishing carpenter. When he was in his 20s he just wore flimsy paper masks, and I don't know if ever wore gloves when using stains and lacquers.

We always joked he was going to get something from the chemicals, not so funny now that it hit.
The 6502 absolutely did evolve to compete (and overtake, in some fields) the 6800, no doubt about it! The motivation of competing on the embedded market (whether you see that in Bill Mensch's IEEE interview quote, or Chuck Peddle's lamenting that customers didn't like the $300 tag on the 6800) explains a lot of the design choices though, especially when considering support chips like the 6530 mask-programmed RRIOT.

Thanks for a great 6800 writeup, and I look forward to the follow-up! I feel like the 6800 does not get the love it deserves from the current generation of hackers.
Where does that dissent say 40% disagreed? It only uses the term majority.
And then the WGA and SAG would’ve gone back to primarily working on network television, as they have since the 60s—as that sector of the industry has shown it actually knows how to run a sustainable business.

If Netflix can’t run a sustainable business, then it’s everyone’s best interest—workers and investors—that they shut it down. That’s just business.

Their numbers suggest otherwise, though— that they can run an extremely profitable business, and now those they depend on can better negotiate for their piece of the pie.
And unless the design system is really bad it shouldn’t be that clunky. Design is design, not art, each new app in a product suite should not be a unique snowflake, but a piece of the puzzle.

People are acting like there are actually new never-before-seen scenarios in CRUD web apps. I’ve only ever seen situations where the designer thought they needed to break the mold, never where it was actually necessary.

They decided a while ago (2022) that Starlink wouldn't get the RDOF grant. This was essentially an appeal to see if the decision would be reversed, and they upheld the original decision not to fund Starlink. It's not a check after deployment thing, it's a "check if they actually can deploy in the first place" situation.

There are two rounds of funding so it's possible unspent funds from the first round may roll over to fund the second round.
In which widely used language do you not have to indent, or match parentheses, brackets and braces?

An editor that cannot match parentheses, brackets and braces, or auto-indent in at least a rudimentary way is not very usable for working in anything.

You'd have to work really hard to vet, and then continue to re-vet, your sellers in order to keep the crap out. There's just too much potential for profit in abusing the system, managing to sell your $1.50 sweatshop knit hats for $40.

You'd want to start off with carefully-selected invites to specific sellers, and then maybe do a referral-based system to bring on additional sellers. Video calls and photo ID for verification. Reporting systems if buyers get mass-produced junk.

Sounds like it would take quite a bit of human effort and care so I can't imagine it getting funded :)
I don't find it at all difficult to tell which are legit. If you can't tell and want to be sure, then message the seller and ask questions.
It's random-ish and "novel", but that could very easily be a reddit username from years ago.
Nah I got that covered. Multiple locations, bitrot-detecting fileystems.. It'll be fine.
Trains are often, somehow or another, public infrastructure. (In Poland it looks like they are run by state-owned companies, mostly?) Countries should work in the interest of their populations, so really we hope David vs Goliath here, except Goliath is the good guy and also hopefully wins.
> The target doesn't need to be airborne for such an attack to work.

I mean, the spoofing signal needs to usually come from sky. You want to hinder the original signal and makes yours stronger. Of course, signal can be reflected and there are other means to reach this.
If those sectors are not decarbonized by 2075 that means global society will have placed a rather low value on avoided CO2 emissions. In that case, the value of the residual lifecycle CO2 from PV or nuclear will be very small compared to the direct cost. If nuclear is more expensive than renewables, as it clearly is currently (as evidenced by the world installing so much more renewables than nuclear, and the renewable installs growing so much faster than nuclear ever did), this small increment cannot save it.

Nuclear for process heat is talked about, but never seems to happen. Process heat tends not to be a 24/7 thing, while nuclear wants near continuous use to amortize its fixed costs. In any case, heat is extremely storable, so acts as an excellent store for excess renewable power, stored as sensible heat in a large thermal store. This is much cheaper per unit of energy than storing energy in batteries. Nuclear will be competing against otherwise curtailed renewable output.

Your projections about renewables in 2050 seem deranged, given the rate of increase in renewable installs and the rate of fall in renewable costs (and also storage). By 2050 people will have long since given up hawking nuclear, if current trends continue.
Interesting that I've been noticing similar sentiment (people focusing on making public spaces nicer and ad-free) in the Czech Republic as well. It seems related to covid but I think it started earlier.
I see your extended response now. Well, I'm happy to do some ironclad moralization.
It's not about slave labor, although all job dependent people are wage slaves even in a union.

It's about labor market flexibility. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/labor-market-flexibilit...

Overly strong labor unions make the entire economy less nimble in rapidly changing environments.
This reminds me of Louis CK's line "you can achieve great things when you don't give a shit about people".

Is the cost worth it? Do I want fair conditions and a good work balance, or do I want to brag about something that made my employer's shareholders really proud? Is the pay worth it if I can't miss a day of work to tend to more important matters?

I run a website for immigrants in Germany. I have to spend a lot of words explaining that it's okay to take sick days, that you won't lose your insurance if you lose your job, and other things that Europeans take for granted.
Cane Sugar vs high-fructose corn syrup, yes. That's the conventional wisdom.

J. Kenji Lopez-Alt did a study where he concluded that people who think they like Mexican Coke more than Regular Coke simply enjoy tasting Coke out of a glass, and the perceived cane-sugar vs HFCS may just be a placebo:

But YMMV. Even having read that study, I still prefer Mexican Coke.
Do we need some way to grade these services based on vertical or use-case?

I actually tried the same tech questions to multiple services when I first started playing around with these commercial LLMs. I would copy and paste the same question to GPT4, MS Bing (I soon stopped using that since I already have a sub to gpt4), claude, bard, and recently You (https://you.com) and while Claude.ai was rarely as good as GPT4, it wasn't too far off for tech questions.

I'm not very creative, so maybe the use of it helping with writing fiction or roleplay might help me, I haven't tried it yet.

Did you try Claude with non-fictional tasks, and if so, how does that compare to GPT4?

Assuming it is some "at reset" selection, Nvidia advertising it as an eight-core chip would be deceptive, so I'm reluctant to believe such a theory. I wouldn't put it past marketing to do such a thing, but later revisions of the manual don't mention the A53 cores, so I'm inclined to believe it's a hardware bug.

Unfortunately, without someone from inside Nvidia telling us, all we have are rumors and no evidence.

Cool so summarizing the comments here - they overpaid 1billion dollars in acquisitions (would have been profitable this year otherwise) and are now laying off staff to recoup losses?
As far as I understand, the article is basically saying that

* the far right shares ideology and slogans with fascism

* FdI leadership comes from the background of post-fascist parties

but neither makes them neo-fascist, based on the fact that _all the right parties in the world_ shares the same slogans, and FdI has (in words) reneged what the fascism has been. La Russa, who is one of the most dreadful characters in the party, took the time to cite the liberation of Italy from fascism as a shared national value when he was elected as chair of the senate

In contrast, Italy does have actual neo-fascist parties such as Casapound and Forza Nuova, with people marching dressed in black, and with programmatic goals which include abolishing the current prohibition to re-establish the fascist party in Italy.

I dislike what Meloni stands for, and we should call out everything bad her government does, without need to call her "neo-fascist".
I still think it's super wild, but after thinking about it it's a lot like IT in big companies. Someone cold emails your boss and all of the sudden you're demoing some random doodad. In DC, your boss sees a fighter jet engine upgrade ad when walking into the Pentagon from the metro, and...

(I literally saw that exact ad at the pentagon metro station. who buys a 30 million dollar engine upgrade off of a metro ad?)

“Artificial flavor” and “natural flavor” is an exemption on labelling I’d like to see disappear.

Once I bought “cinnamon spread” and it didn’t have cinnamon in the ingredients. The company refused to tell me if “natural flavors” included cinnamon. (I’m sure it did because cinnamon is cheap, but c’mon).

And yeah, a lot of alcohol products get exempted from ingredient labelling for some reason. Should be treated like food is.
