You're going further to "whether LLMs can be useful when programming in a new programming language." Which I will leave to developers using those new languages.

I'm saying more that every time developers develop/find a tool that makes them more productive, if it doesn't look like the Old Ways, there will be other developers to crap on them and say they don't know enough about the Old Ways. Which may or not be true but isn't always relevant given the size of the space that comprises modern programming.

This is why there are still people who deride programmers who use IDEs instead of using tools that were invented nearly 50(!) years ago. I'm not saying either way is a fit for every use, but the attitude that developers should eschew attempts to improve the state of our tools is toxic.
This is the most common misconception of our work. Please read the paper. WALI doesn't have to be exposed directly to programs, but can be used to implement a more restrictive sandbox as a Wasm module a layer above. For example, WASI can be implemented as a Wasm module and then other Wasm modules can only use the WASI module. Then any bugs or vulnerabilities in the WASI implementation are not engine-level exploits, but are sandboxed as any other Wasm module.

This is a layering and security win across the board and does nothing to reduce the possibilities for more restrictive environments and APIs built on top.

We're fans of WASI and see it as a the future of portable APIs. But it's a distant future, and WALI actually helps get us there and get more adoption for WASI by making it possible to implement WASI independent of the engine.
That explains the date change, thanks.

But I'm still wondering... how did the other submission even make it on? The URL and title are exactly the same and it was posted mere hours later.

Positive discrimination can see as racist, ok. (even if positive discrimination being here because of negative (generally unconscious) discrimination and because "diversity" is generally good for innovation and competitiveness).

But what here is " DEEPLY racist against white people" ?
My favorite part about design systems is when they are created in a vacuum devoid of either content strategy or technology/engineering so they look dope af but solve nothing for activation or delivery teams.
Plugging in to L1 charging overnight for 12 hours will get you 420 miles a week of range, enough for 30 miles per week day and 270 on the weekend. More than that on the weekend and you're probably using a DC day charger anyways. You really only need 220V if you're driving >50 miles per weekday.

Or if you're parking outside in the winter. 120v will keep your battery warm or charge, but not both.

> A place I worked at recently insisted on JWTs despite being a monolith and calling the database on every API endpoint.

JWTs are really nice because you can validate things like roles and permissions just by validating the token signature. And there are much better ways to implement revocation lists than "calling the database on every API endpoint" (if that's what you were referring to). Since revocation lists are usually very small (depending on the nature of your app), it's often possible to just replicate them to in-memory data structures on your servers.

This is not a competing standard, it's a complementary, lower-level interface that can be used to implement (and sandbox) the WASI implementation. It's defense-in-depth and layering: WASI moves up a layer, and not every engine needs to implement it independently, as it can be a Wasm module that runs on any engine.
There's food safe concrete sealers.

A former co-worker of mine ran nearly this exact same scheme. As an executive for a cable network, he bilked his company out of 8 million dollars. He invoiced the company for video production work that never happened. $25k here, $20k there. He has since served his time of 4+ years in a New York state prison. He lists his role at that cable company on his LinkedIn.

I expect she will do the same and she’ll be back on the market in a few years with her Facebook diversity manager role at the top of her LinkedIn.
Yes, the first browser was WorldWideWeb, written by TBL himself. Then, there was a small ecosystem of other browsers before Mosaic came into the picture. Mosaic was the first browser with a "must-have feature" which allowed it to become very popular compared to the others. This must-have feature was inline images, using the <img> tag. Before this, if you wanted to include an image to a page, you linked to the file with an <a> tag. After Mosaic became popular, the team who developed it started Netscape, which was unofficially called Mozilla, i.e. Mosaic K*lla. This was sort of the "zeroth" browser war. Netscape's must-have feature at the time was frames using the <frameset> and <frame> tag. After that, came IE and the "first" browser war, between IE and Netscape...

(I wasn't there, but I've done a lot of research into this.)
Since they don't define it readily, I looked it up: A loitering munition is somewhere between a missile and a drone. Once it's shot, it stays in the air for a while until it locks onto a target, then shoots toward the target kamikaze-style, using the attached warhead to do damage.
Thanks; maybe critical mass for the internet triggered it?

oh yeah, I recall merkle now; but maybe git first applied to decentralization?

While this is true to some extent it is also true that an infrastructure project finishing on time/budget is not news so you will hear about those.
I seriously doubt that it's possible, unless you can get the city/state to change the building codes dramatically for the worse. Residential units need various things that commercial buildings don't, like windows (for each unit, not just at the periphery of the huge building), lots of plumbing so everyone can have a kitchen and bathroom, etc. Retrofitting buildings (to be very different than before, not just changing some fixtures and keeping the overall design intact) is generally more expensive than just demolishing and building new ones that are properly designed for that purpose. Just look at cars: even restoring an old car costs a fortune in labor costs, because it's far less efficient than building a new one on an assembly line, and that isn't changing the car design substantially. Imagine what it would cost to transform a 1950s car into one that meets all 2023 safety and emissions standards; even if you can reuse an existing engine/transmission, there's a ton of custom work needed, both mechanical and electrical.
Yes. You would be a creative director or art director.

Capability security is great, but it isn't native to the Linux kernel. It must be implemented on top. WALI allows that capability security model to be implemented in a Wasm module, rather than built into the Wasm engine. Thus a bug in the implementation of that isn't an engine-level exploit, but is sandboxed as any other Wasm module would be.
Feel like this especially true in design systems where they went as far as a few dozen atoms but did not progress to molecules or components (insert corollary term here). This exposes a lack of understanding the business and user needs.
I am building similar thing at https://peppyhop.com . Currently it’s restricted to Indian geography. We onboard stores that have shopify or woocommerce backend. We have also developed our custom ML model to better classify products.
I deliver for door dash as a side gig (supplemental income). If drivers try to milk the system and take an exaggerated amount of time to deliver orders, those drivers will not receive as many offers for orders (messes up their algorithm in the long term). I think the new model encourages people to drive safely and not rush and risk getting into an accident just because they work on tips and are trying to rush through traffic to get their money worth/ time worth for labor. It also does not put pressure on the consumer to tip since the delivery drivers will earn a livable wage. Employers should pay their workers a fair wage, not the consumer.
Yeah, hacking portable console was interesting and useful on PSP/DS era even for a script kiddy users, because there are not much affordable portable devices. Now we have a smartphone, so it's for who enjoy hacking and run emulator and/or pirated games.

For accuracy all apps under $1M in revenue can get 15% since 2020: https://developer.apple.com/app-store/small-business-program...

Also, subscriptions are charged at 30% for the first year, which then drops to 15% for subsequent years.

When we sold software through resellers years before the App Store we often paid 40%-45%. We found it absurd at first too, but we learned that large businesses only bought from certain resellers or the resellers could sell into businesses we couldn’t reach (a sales staff in business or marketing to consumers). In some rare cases we negotiated to 30% so I don't find these fees out of the norm.
Yeah. Rarely does this kind of crime get committed once by a person. Same as the person claiming they only cheated once.

Once people make the choice to go over a taboo threshold, they’ll likely do it multiple times.

Sorry about that! What you said is basically correct: this is for distributing Python applications. You configure via environment variables at build-time and the binary you ship to users who then run it. It could be a single name/version pair or more complex options like embedding a wheel or being defined by a requirements file.

This is really cool but I think the documentation could use a simple quickstart example, that takes actual Python code and shows how to turn it into an executable. Right now it feels a bit like reading a manpage, with tons of features and options but no clear way to get started.

Definitely going to keep an eye on this, though. My company has been using pyInstaller to distribute Python tools and it's a bit of a PITA, so any alternative is welcome.

I'd like to wager that EEVDF has been tested less methodologically than how this paper investigates CFS. The primary author of EEVDF and maintainer of the subsystem has been dismissing alternative approaches and plethora of robustly tested patches from Google and Facebook over the years, with mostly replies boiling down to "meh I don't like it".

I'd take a patch of CFS and its millions of broken knobs from Google over newly released EEVDF any day, because I trust scheduler AB testing by Google over millions of machines and every single scheduling pattern under the sun way more than whatever synthetic micro-benchmark a single kernel dev (as competent as they might be) ran.

And what we're looking at now is the non-acid version? You seem to have completely missed that the person was implementing something interesting. Here's something for you to do: think about whether, at work, you're good at giving credit to other people publicly. How do you think people feel on reading your code review comments?

We used to have a thing called TV Mobile on the bus here.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TVMobile

Anytime you wanted to get from A to B you would be subjected to noisy TV, and it was invariably something tedious like endless repeats of Ellen or Oprah with loads of adverts.

It was hell and I am so glad the service failed and was discontinued.
Do you really think this wasn't considered?
That's clearly the namesake. It's a bug that triggered machine check exceptions that halted the machine, and Reptar's known for the line "HALT! I am Reptar! HALT! I am Reptar!" Is there another Reptar?
No, it’s unlikely you’ll ever need to replace the liquid metal. It is indeed substantially more expensive (e.g. dollars instead of cents) due to both the material cost and the extra process steps.

We’re not the first to do liquid metal in a laptop. Others have done earlier-generation liquid metals that are liquid at room temperature that have significantly more challenging design requirements. We’re one of the earlier ones to use this type of liquid metal pad that is solid at room temperature.
Not murder.

The argument is that in a country of 20+ million people there will be enough people with a genetic predisposition toward natural causes of early death such that at least one family with 3+ children having many deaths should occur at least once .. not be such an outlier and so uncommon that "it must be murder".

The Folbigg case had no physical evidence of murder, just a "well, this has to be murder" argument and a media pile onto a very guilty feeling parent (as any parent would feel in such circumstances).

See:

March 2021 the Australian Academy of Science published a petition, signed by 90 scientists, calling for Kathleen Folbigg’s immediate pardon and release from jail based on newly available medical and scientific evidence, led by Academy Fellow Professor Carola Vinuesa. The pardon petition is currently being considered by the NSW Attorney General. This case highlights the urgent need for law reform such that evidence can be appropriately considered by the judiciary.

Ukraine is only mentioned once, as part of a quote. If you're going to write about this topic, what's going on there deserves more attention.

Nope.

The situation sounds pretty bad, but the right thing to do is to put in a reasonable amount of work (like, more than minimum, but don't overdo it) while you search for a new job.

Staying longer seems likely to only damage your reputation, your learning, and ultimately your self-confidence.

Kinda annoying that they compare FTEs against the size of the whole population and not against the labour market. It doesn't change the conclusion, but it's probably close to a quarter or a third of workers, given the LFPR is usually 60-something%.

Including kids, retirees, anyone with a medical condition or disability, etc. in the other 80% isn't accurate, since a retired FTE or the child of two FTEs belongs in the top class still, and the permanently disabled or chronically unemployed are in a different situation.
Sadly that's just the culture. I've seen apprentices laughed at by old timers and called pussies because they were taking basic precautions and wearing PPE. And then to fit in they themselves took on that same attitude.
This. I grew up in SW TN close to the MS border. That's as much tornado alley as Kansas over the past couple decades. I've seen two F4's up close and the aftermath of one F5. And a hell of a lot of smaller storms.

The issue is that there are 100 tornado warnings for every one that actually matters to you. And the tornado warnings really are tornados, but they mostly take out some trees on the ridge and the occasional barn roof. A lot of those are big, too.

The issue is the capriciousness of the whole thing.

You get used to close calls. They happen all the time. And sometimes those close calls kill a lot of people.

It's not that folks don't pay attention. The fatigue is real. But even more than that is the simple fact that most take out the barn and not the house. The difference between a lot of downed trees and a town wiped out is a couple hundred yards and random chance.

It's hard to rationalize and it's hard not to just accept the risk and just go on with your life.
