They are super fast, but they are a load, modify, store operation, hence the large number of cycles.
Yes and that's good, but it should be even easier. Rather than every libc needing to invent how to make the allocator pluggable, we should have that separation of concerns stock and shared by all implementations.
Vercel edge functions are Cloudflare Workers under the hood. I'm pretty sure Supabase is using Deno Deploy/Subhosting. There's a lot of nuance to comparing these two offerings but in short what I'd say is if you like the supabase platform offerings with all the tightly integrated goodies than you will likely benefit way more from going with Supabase functions.

Vercel is increasingly trying to offer all these integrated goodies too but imo right now most of them are off-the-shelf things like "a postgres db" (powered by neondb platform) a "kv redis store" (powered by upstash) and they seem to be betting their user's want to use their own pg/redis cli's & sdk's to manage & access the data from the edge functions (versus supabase's sdk's which unify auth, db, functions, etc.).

Both options do have their benefits but if you want everything tightly integrated with a friendly management UI, sdk & auth Supabase can save you tons of time!

In terms of speed I still think nothing beats cloudflare workers (way more geographically distributed points of presence so even closer to more users). However I think vercel's edge functions only use a subset of the total cloudflare workers PoPs. But I highly doubt the average use-case or user would ever notice the difference in latency between cloudflare workers & supabase edge functions so i don't know if that should be your determining factor. (And let's not get started on the debate of "edge doesn't matter if it's far from your db". If supabase is doing any magic to make their edge functions "close" to the db that's a huge win!)

Another option is to go full cloudflare ecosystem (they too have a kv store & now a limited sql db) but, again, I do not think their ecosystem gives you the all-in-one goodness that supabase does (no auth offering, definitely no way to tie together db/kv/auth with one sdk/management dashboard).

Yet another option is to go with fly.io + tursodb. Like deno & cloudflare workers they have their own geographically distributed PoP's that run lightweight, optimized firecracker vms running any of your dockerfile desires. With this you get even more freedom and control but you also need to get your hands a bit dirty in flyio's cli & platform magic. Also while turso is super interesting it's very new and they seem to be pushing more of a "have a database per user" than "host one giant multitenant db".

I have compared all these offerings, weighed the pros / cons. In the end don't let it paralyze you! Nearly all these offerings have enough standardized pathways in and out of them (or similar standard protocols like sql, postgres protocol, exports, cf runtime even has limited node/npm support for instance) to where lock-in should not too big a fear in the beginning. Worst case try to write abstractions for db-access, auth-hooks, kv-access, maybe runtime-specific logic so that you can adapt the abstraction to benefit app-wide if you ever need to migrate to another runtime/db.

Hope this helps!
Right, but the question is if the engineers who intimately understood the function of the press itself were the experts that should have been looked to in predicting the sociopolitical impacts of the machine and the ways in which it would transform the media with which it was engaged.

I'm not always that impressed by the discussion of AI or LLMs by engineers who undisputably have great things to say about the operation when they step outside their lane in predicting broader impacts or how the recursive content refinement is going to manifest over the next decade.
To be fair, this kind of redundancy and reducing likelihood of third party changes seems safer to me.

Nothing about “Operating systems will be upgraded. Apps will come and go. Maps will update.” says “The system will keep working flawlessly.” - if anything, the system will accumulate flaws.

Do we have any hard evidence that they are? It sounds like people using ad blockers in other browsers are seeing the same thing.
Their dealers must be furious. This is clearly going to harm sales, and they probably expect they're going to trade up-front revenue for subscription. Auto manufacturers famously produce excellent software so I'm sure they'll rake in the money.

I wonder what this will do to their fleet sales. Rental companies probably won't be thrilled about customers turning up their noses at GM vehicles that don't have Carplay. I wouldn't be surprised if they have to start renting them at a discount.

That’s unstoppable, though, short of deploying AI to detect references to sponsors. The only way to discourage that is to boycott the creators in question.
Validate what? That it can be a business? The rational way to validate that is to try to get customers.

Validate that it's worthy of building? That's different. Maybe it's a great idea the world needs, but with no real path to market.

Ask yourself the right questions.
I think they did use it intentionally because without that nuclear explosion they could not get rid of the mountains that protected Arrakeen from sand-worms.

They invaded Arrakeen riding sand-worms that would be impossible before, it is even said in the novel that Paul was riding the biggest sand-worm ever seen that day and the Freemen considered this some kind of sign they were going to win..

now i don't remember if they shoot their own shield or they knew the Sardukar would be using lasgun and took advantage of it..

EDIT:

Ok, it seen as i am misremembering things.. They did not used a lasgun\shield combo, they used actual nukes.. Either way consequences and effects are the same..

If you’re trying to claim safety, saying that your thing that no one has seen that was developed by a company that doesn’t know what they’re doing and probably runs way too slow is safer than the thing the customer is already used to seems like a stretch.

For safety you want people not to do it in the first place. But that’s not an argument for making them use your software is it?

This is just so incredibly blatantly self-serving. It’s like a two-year-old telling you they won’t ruin their dinner by eating five more cookies. They couldn’t even come up with a plausible reason?

I’m with you. I don’t need to pay for a cellular connection for my car. I don’t need to pay $200 a year for map updates. I don’t need to pay $20 a month for SiriusXM when I already have a streaming subscription on my phone.

Nothing they want to sell us is something we want. Maybe that’s what they should fix first.

IF a someone was able to make something better than CarPlay or Android Auto then you don’t need to cut them off. People will choose to use your better system even with AA/CP available.

IF.
This argument is essentially whataboutism - any issues in the practice of modern evidence-based medicine does not in any way validate the efficacy of homeopathy or similar pseudoscientific approaches. On top of that, arguing that most medical recommendations are unnecessary and overpriced doesn't help the case of homeopathy or chiropractic either - I mean, at that point, why charge patients any more than the cost of sugar or a short massage?
Generally, being pseudo-anonymous is what allows open and free discussion (but lots of vitriol too).

While genetic information is not yet understood well enough by masses to be abused in stereotyping and rejecting and — indeed — "cancelling", there is a huge potential to do so. This especially holds true for gender, racial, national differentiation, genetic disease potential and health profiling — all accessible through a full genome (even if some of the indicators are not with 100% confidence). Lots of this can also be used to start linking genome data to an actual person (helped with data from other contexts), which is where it starts to become risky according to known risk profiles.

Unsurprisingly, someone who is likely a white male (I could have checked using your genome too, but loading up your profile above confirms that) with "no credible genetic risk factors" is a lot less concerned about opening up their genome to the public: you are unlikely to get discriminated against. With that said, even you can get potentially ignored for your privilege: even I just engaged in that — somewhat discounting a part of your experience/claim because you are a white male. Part of that is also education: your extensive experience in the field allows you to make an educated choice. Many can't attain that much knowledge before they decide whether to share their genome or not.

This opens up the question similar to that entire face recognition fiasco — how will unprivileged be affected by the privileged being mostly used to train the models on and do research on?

So the question is how do we ensure enough anonymity to make everyone happy to contribute to the world knowledge, but reduce chances of linking data back to actual people? I know nebula.org is doing something of the sort (though mostly just guaranteeing that they will remove the data at your request, and not share it without your permission), but we could have one genome produce a bunch of part-genomes, still allowing causation/correlation research, but none of them having the full picture.

That would disable some of the groundwork research (is there a correlation/causation only visible in the full genome or larger part of it?), so it's a tricky balance to find.

And finally, I always like to make this choice a bit personal: how would you feel about your child being linked to a criminal case due to your genome being publicly available?

Apollo is one of the few reasons I shell out the $100/year for an Apple Developer Account.

If someone is even mildly technical I'd recommend going the Sideloadly route for getting Apollo, ad-free/background-play YouTube, ad-free/backgroun-play Twitch, and ad-free Spotify.
In an 8 bit environment, to shave off one cycle and a byte in the program ROM is a big enough advantage that the zero page concept made good sense just from that point of view. Motorola took further advantage of it by allowing the zeropage to be moved around which could be used to give the effect of a rather primitive context switch between tasks, and coupled with position independent code made multi tasking even more feasible.

The reason the 16 bit index register indirect fetches were so slow is that they did a useless 'add' of 0 to the index register prior to the fetch. They also had an offset option and I guess letting it do it's usual thing with an offset of 0 made the silicon a bit simpler at the expense of a bit of efficiency.
Case in Point: I really like Costco, but if I ever cancel my membership then it is because of how they seem to reshuffle significant parts of the store every few weeks.

I don't know if they think I will buy more if I run around for fifteen minutes looking for something, but man it's annoying.

They probably think of it as 'increasing engagement'. To me it's just wasting my time.
The RealDID service would let customers sign up for and access websites anonymously.
The official state media said this would allow for more public oversight and boost legitimacy.
Data privacy activists are sure to be concerned with the news that the Blockchain-based Service Network (BSN), China’s national-level blockchain program, would employ blockchain technology to validate the real-name identities of the country’s 1.4 billion inhabitants. The RealDID concept was supported by BSN and was driven by China’s Ministry of Public Security.

at this point, any app, device, service, website that does not actively promote the fact that they do not harvest data, track, spy, etc should just automatically be assumed that they are. The money to be made is too good. The requirements to do it are too easy. The usability impact on the user is negligible if it's even measureable to non-existent.

It's pretty much like this war has been lost, but nobody wants to admit it or even admit it existed.

with there being a limited number of auto manufacturers, with the general consensus seeming to be that consumers should own increasingly nothing and increasingly like it, there aren’t many alternatives.

which is why it becomes less and less crazy to imagine apple offering a car subscription - might as well, they have the payment platform and the customers have already spent their anger on the incumbents. not that apple is alone.
The FCC is giving out money to build long term networks. A high maintenance, high cost of deployment satellite ISP is not permanent. I also believe the FCC was being fair in their assessment of Starlink's capacity in the future based on how many satellites must be launched for expanding coverage. And critically, meeting coverage requirements. Our ISP had to submit automated speed tests for various areas we serve to be eligible for further funding in those areas.

The more people added to Starlink, the more slowdown and latency it will accrue until there are more satellites added to the cluster. As it was explained to me, Starlink was applying for broadband funding to provide 100/20 speeds, meaning they had to hit the 100/20 on their existing network as that was the service tier they were selling and they didn't quite make it.
Great work! I was just about to build something very similar in Python using a 10 dimensional projective geometric algebra described here https://youtu.be/VYZHdEkLgC0?si=admkfiQwxIjHBa3Y?&t=90
I was sort of convinced by this argument, theoretically, until I actually experienced the alternative.

I've had a Toyota for four years now with all physical switches, but the complexity and number of controls is absolutely mind bogging large. I can't operate these physical switches without looking at inscrutable, small labels in awkward places. A centralized screen which allows clear view of the road at the same time is much safer than stalks with arrays of switches that have 4+ settings. At least when I'm operating it.
It might draw in potential customers who believe in it, yes. Or it might give manufacturers the cover to not include any quantity of said herbs in the product.
My impression of this article is that it is not an interpretation of apples guide lines (ie a secondary source) but a write up of observations (ie a primary source)

This can be of interest for a few reasons, but particularly because such investigations might reveal “true” design philosophies over espoused philosophies.
If all entertainment must conform to an idealistic view of society then it's just going to be really boring isn't it? I think a lot of people are not going to watch TV shows if they only portray the world in this highly moralized way.

I probably wouldn't like the characters or watch the show if they didn't make the jokes or have the quirks and shortcomings that they do.
They've all let me down over the years.

Like it's a trivial task. If it is... the whole system wasn't that complicated and likely similar results could be achieved without external caching.
Tesla absolutely refuses for some reason.

Rivian has said they might add it later, but they didn’t seem to think it was enough of a priority over everything else they were doing. That’s somewhat understandable.

If I was in the market for a car, they would both be a no-go though because of that. I like CarPlay too much.
GM is one of the few manufacturers that still has physical buttons for almost everything (climate, volume,etc)
That's an artistic choice: the POV character in that scene doesn't speak Japanese, so viewers receive information limited to their perception.

Languages are handled differently in truly multi-lingual media. Watch _Invasion_ for a good example (the first season is amazing, but we didn't care for the second). There, the audience gets subtitles for everything, so viewers often know more than the characters do. There's a beautiful sequence in the desert where two men, unable to understand each other's language, pour out their hearts to each other, and - unwittingly, and across a cultural chasm - share the same hopes and fears.

There's a third way of handling language, which I hardly ever see: the characters on-screen understand each other, but the audience doesn't. The _Star Wars_ by-play between R2-D2 and C3PO is the most accessible example. This is engaging because viewers have to fill in the blanks to infer what one or more of the characters have said.

You might prefer that everything be of the second type, but keep an open mind! The creators probably had a reason for making the choice that they did.
I mean, the actual material living conditions in the West Bank might be better, but don’t the Gazans at least have some form of sovereignty over their land? My understanding is that there is no real independent West Bank Palestinian government that exercises security over the land and the people on it. At least not in favor of the Palestinians.

I haven't used ray, but I've read a bit of documentation on it and from what I gather, you install a daemon on the box (ray core) and can send it commands that it executes. Along the way, you can keep state, store data and schedule things.

That's what I would want something to do if I was building tooling like this myself. Although, I'd do it in golang instead of python so that the dependency chain was simpler. A single small binary is nicer imho.
> It's a shame that David Zaslav believes prestige television must take a backseat to cheap, "comfort" viewing.

While Zaslav will obviously make things worse, note that it was AT&T that fired all the HBO bosses that curated HBO’s offerings quite a few years ago now. HBO was killed before Zaslav got to it.
It really shouldn’t matter much. My 2016 car wasn’t laggy with CarPlay. I promise you that thing wasn’t fast.

Or are you using wireless? I don’t know if other vehicles are better but the only times I’ve gotten to try wireless CarPlay the lag drove me nuts. If I plugged it in instead it was great.
Do you have a feel for how the maneuverability of a B-1 being controlled by the canards compares to that of a typical airliner?

It seems like a system like this would need to respond very quickly to changes in the air mass, and the weight and slow response of an airliner might make this system less feasible unless you could somehow measure airflow a reasonable distance in front of the plane.

It continually astonishes me that “profiting” is at all lobbed at EA / Lesswrong, never mind how often and how much. These are the people donating half their salaries and their literal kidneys to save the lives of people they don’t know. Anyone who smears them with profit motive does their reputation a disservice when intelligent people look into it and realize, whoa whatever these guys are motivated by, it for sure isn’t profit. Accelerate AGI with the crew of VCs like Marc Andreesen ($100m mansion) and adjacent startups on the other hand…
It's kind of sad that it only generates a single page and doesn't attempt to generate a bunch of pages and content like a normal website. I went through the whole wizard, provided it with enough content as possible, and it only generated about 100 words which is frankly pretty useless in todays SEO-fuelded internet.
Who needs new content? Kinda sad to see the most popular shows being Friends, Suits, Breaking Bad, the walking dead etc.

In modern parlance I think the best way to think of the zero page is as a primitive form of 'nearby' memory, we'd do this transparently through a cache. Some processors extended this 'register file in RAM' concept considerably, for instance the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMS9900 TMS9900 with it's workspace register.

All of these concepts, register file, cache, context memory were quite fluid at the time and not yet settled in the way we see them today so it isn't surprising to see one party refer to the 6502 zero page (or the 6809 direct page) as an extension of the register file in the CPU and another to see it as a cache, a task context or more efficient bit of memory. All of these can be right, it's just a POV difference.
