Is it objectively at the top, or is that more an easy thing people love to assume is truly difficult? I don't think we have any evidence that kids are slower to learn in any particular language, do we? (Oddly, we do have evidence that moving away from a primarily phonics based teaching method was a terrible idea, but I haven't seen much to compare with other languages at the same ages.)

Thanks so much again. Got it working. 8 seconds. Nvidia is the king. Updated the blog post.
And I'm saying it's not really a smoke-screen, but rather it is what happens whenever there is high variability. Note that I included both greed & fear in the mix.

I guess I'm objecting to "arbitrary" rather than "how markets work".

I think we are both agreeing that there are parts of e.g. consumer grocery store prices that are inherently inflation driven (and unlikely to go down) and parts that may be opportunistic or defensive (and might) but the key think is literally nobody actually knows how to separate that cleanly. There is some hope that competition will drive out some of the additional price increase over time relative to actual value, but usually the way this happens is by letting inflation eat it, not actually re-pricing lower. We will see, but until then we'll see reports like you've linked, and others claiming otherwise, and not really know until the dust settles.
Just guessing but it might be some kind of safety such that Gemini can't be used to solve captchas.
I don't want that. I don't think a lot of what OP made sense, but I was just correcting their typo since it's an understandable mistake and can be easily fixed.
Stay small. Aggressively fight cost centers, but pay good people well. Avoid high real estate costs unless it's a value-add. Hire outside of the Valley.

Kind of like this codecrafters.io where i get a working KV Store/Blob Storage/Kafka Stream out at the end. Code crafters sounded good in the beginning, but it looks too beginner friendly (their web server example is just writing hard coded text back to a socket and i'm sure the other examples are just as shallow).

If anyone has any examples of this, lemme know.
I created a few audio tinkering utilities, e.g.

- m4b-tool[1], an audio book utility

- tone[2], an audio tagger

mainly for myself because the existing tools did not fit my needs or weren't FOSS. I did never think so many people would be interested. By the end of the year I plan to make my first donation of my github sponsoring income to a charity project.

Currently I'm working on `pure-todo`, a todo list with sqlite, REST API and JWT based user management. The first approach was to publish it with a single index.php file without ANY dependency, but this is something I have to think over again. Maintenance will be a nightmare :-)

Next FOSS project I will work on is `Tone Audio Player`, a fully cross platform (Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, WASM) audio player app, that fully supports background playback without stuttering. But C# / Avalonia UI is just not there yet, I'm currently switching to flutter.

Adaptation is one of the gems of Postmodern cinema. I really like what that film did to my brain the first time I watched it. It's hilarious.

It's a keen insight into the process and emotional rollercoaster of creative work.

The layered hilarity to it all is that it's based on the real experience of Kaufman trying to adapt The Orchid Thief.
> They are not able to meet the constraints written out in the law.

Which constraints were they not able to meet? Brendan Carr, an FCC Commissioner, has publicly claimed that Starlink clearly met the traditional constraints, but that the FCC invented a new standard and claimed that Starlink failed to meet that. [0]

> Are you saying we should ignore the law as it was written and give them the hand out anyway?

It depends. Did the FCC apply their standard in a consistent way? And is it normal practice for them to revoke the contract of every partner for the mere possibility of their missing a deadline? If the answer to both questions is 'Yes', then this action is proper. If not, then it is not only improper, but would appear to be an act of blatant political corruption, aimed at someone who is clearly considered to be an enemy of the administration.

The selective enforcement of the law is the very definition of corruption.

How can I use Google Gemini in a Java application?
Just checked my account and this option was on. Turned it off but it's completely unacceptable that it was on in the first place. If anyone has any good alternatives please let me know. Preferably encrypted options.
this seems taken a bit out of context if you read the source article, but i suppose thats already being picked apart on NH :)... how does apple do with libs optimised for nvidia devices? maybe those 2 benchmarks compared to eachother could shed some light?
That’s interesting. I think it must be the case but just to triple check my intuition, I guess you want the threads spread out, so you can get every chiplet in on the action?
I think more accurately is that you are applying your perspective which does not match that of what is by definition and regionally acceptable as a high rise.

I mean what kind of ridiculous non-sense is this to try to gate keep the word high rise. The literally definition is multiple floors with an elevator.

Do you think this will be a 12 story walk up?
Thank you :). I'm glad to hear it! Which model are you using?

There's a fifth category; rich, own your home, and a couple more. If you're a landlord, high rents mean more money in your pocket and who doesn't want more money? The broader community effects of high rents are secondary to being able to afford a new car and a foreign vacation every few years.
I think that's a good criticism. It assumes that rent demand would be perfectly elastic in response to the step-up in property tax, but I'm not sure if that holds provided you pick a high enough differential tax.

If a family is paying $3k/month to rent out a $800k single-family home, and we tax the landlord 15% the value on the home, could he find a family to pay $13k/month in rent (covering the tax)?

I think this would just cause the value of the home to crater, to come closer to a reality that tolerates $3k/month-ish rent. To the point where the property value is low enough that the resident family can just buy a property.
Most other things are fully a "take it or leave" it deal - pay or you can't get access. If I take food from the grocery store without paying then they will call the police.

Most ad supported websites aren't like that. They let anybody access the content and only then try to insert ads. That's like trying to close the barn door after the horse has left, and it's a fundamental property of the medium of web publishing.

You can do things to push back against it - put the site behind a username/password and block users who aren't looking at the ads - but this prevents people from discovering the site in the first place.

This is ultimately a mismatch between the desires of the business and the medium they have decided to use, and it's on _them_ to figure that out, not end users.
I know, right? It’s bold to say that not focusing on materialism as the route to happiness could mean that people in poverty might not suffer as much.

Ah yes, the same Nathan Simington who made statements like this about Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter [1]:

"If Mr. Musk follows through on his stated intention to ease Twitter's restrictions on speech, he would almost certainly enhance competition and better serve those Americans, the majority, who value free speech. ... We should instead applaud Mr. Musk for doing something about a serious problem that government has so far failed to address."

A very unbiased party who has no ulterior motives at all to consider things out of scope.

Are you truly starting with those words for a 5-year-old? Curious why?

Hands down, teaching phonics is far and away the fastest route to being able to decode words. Similarly, reading to your kids is the fastest way to get them interested in reading. Using the motivation to learn to get going on the phonics is more than adequate to teach reading.

And don't expect things outside of spelling/reading to be any more "logical." Try explaining the rules of any sport in a way that isn't dominated by the exceptions.
IMHO UI tests are just too difficult to be worth bothering with in most situations.

Maybe AI will change that. But for now I think dev time is generally better invested in other ways of making code work properly, or just fixing bugs that have already been reported.

I know that sounds heretical.
That's easy. Just drive slowly and keep intensely honking.

The argument is if they had paid on time would they have been able to deliver to the particular customers by 2025? i.e not everyone. Just RDOF subsided users in the awarded areas

The Dems say no. Evidence is current state of network and absence of starship.

SpaceX says yes. V2 is already launching on Falcon. We don't need starship to meet our obligations but it will make it faster.

Republicans say both of you are talking nonsense. Until 2025 you can't find out. And there's a process for getting there. You only test devices that are under the RDOF plan, not everyone. And since SpaceX hasn't been awarded, you can't do any testing that's relevant.

Imagine SpaceX got awarded say Diomede and you're bringing up speeds in LA and Seattle or the Midwest.

SpaceX will sue and lose due to Chevron deference

The actual reason we stay on ethanol as a fuel additive is not about saving the planet: It's simply a good octane booster for the kinds of reliable octane you need in modern engines. Before, we had leaded gas which is bad, then MTBE which kept poisoning water tables.

In contrast, using 15% ethanol uses 15% less gas at a time when we were desperately trying to not be held by the balls by the middle east gas sellers, it's trivial to produce at scale, it was a simple handout to corn growers, which the US cares deeply about, and refineries didn't mind that it reduced the energy density of fuel by a couple percent, requiring you buy more gas for the same amount of energy, and it would never end up with a 60 minutes special about how it has been poisoning all of us for decades. We should have been using it the whole damn time.
> If you were to redo it now with what we know now, the architecture would be very similar and the language would be only slightly better.

Some parts are, of course, a matter of taste (compiling in backend code rather than having them be separate programs consuming an easy-to-parse canonical form; admittedly that’s in line with the LLVM ethos). But also, honestly, the language—late binding and all—seems a bit like a more ad hoc version of CUE. If I were to look for a tool for a TableGen-shaped problem, that’d probably be the direction I would be thinking in.

I always send myself messages as bookmarks, notrs, and general "here's an idea I might want to come back to later". It's an awful system when it comes to discoverability (I do it in Messenger so search is... bad), but I still do it as it's the most convinient option at the moment when I need to store that something somewhere.

So I built a simple Telegram bot which automatically stores anything I send as a text embedding into a vector database, and allows me to search over it in that same chat (same process that powers the AI Q&A assistants these days).

If I post a link, it automatically scrapes it and stores text as chunks for better search, extracts text from youtube videos (still wip), turns images into text with the visual models, etc.

One thing I'm unhappy about is not being able to easily edit any notes I search for later, but it's miles ahead of my previous "system". Hopefully I can open source this when I clean it up - if anyone is interested, let me know.
i would say experimentation. trying implementing different arichtectures with relatively simple implementations. one thing that helped me was getting books and articles about different design principles architectural ideas etc. and then creating them myself. Also, what is 'good' here? i am assuming, knowing when to use what kind of architecture. some are easier to create, some perform better, some are easier to collaborate on in large teams, costs can be a factor too. Are you looking for a specific thing or wanting to generally know more about the topic.?
Looks like it! Even code quality has dropped 'significantly.' I used it once in a while to clean up the code after writing a POC. It used to do decent work before, but now I almost always can't use the code generated at first shot.

> Now when Israel is their colonizer, things are a bit different. Not only has Israel imposed a new language, culture and religion onto their lands, but they have also severely displaced them. No colonizer has done that to the Palestinians in the past,

Modern Judaism permits conversion but refuses to promote or encourage it, and sometimes even goes out of its way to make it hard (especially some of the more conservative Orthodox). Hence, there has never been any encouragement for Palestinians to convert. It wasn’t always thus - John Hyrcanus forced the Idumeans to convert to Judaism; but that was over 2000 years ago now.

By contrast, Islamic conquerors always made it easy for conquered peoples to convert to Islam, and encouraged it through a mixture of carrots and sticks. The same is true of Christianity.

Possibly, this is part of what sustains the Israel-Palestine conflict; if contemporary Judaism were pro-conversion, many of the Palestinians might have already become Jews by now.
To be fair to Dropbox that page also states:

> "Your files within Dropbox are sent to a third-party AI only when you chose to interact with AI powered features. For example, when you ask a question about a file. "

> "If you or your team is participating in the Dropbox AI alpha, the Third-party AI toggle in your account settings is turned On by default. Only the content relevant to an explicit request or command is sent to our third-party AI partners to generate an answer, summary, or transcript."

Basically, its saying "if you use AI tools, we'll send your data to a 3p, but if you don't, we're not".

The issue really is if they turned on a feature in the future "ask a question about this document" and you didn't know it meant that the document was sent over to OpenAI.

They're just too far ahead of the game. Hatred for tips is growing but not past the, err, tipping point yet. Or non-tipping point, if you prefer.

But my main point is, nothing is going to stop the tipping train until it rams into a wall. With "sometimes I get some tip money, especially when I use dark patterns" on one side of the ledger, the increasing annoyance people have with tipping is just going to be ignored and therefore grow until it boils over.

We're not there yet. But barring some sort of legislative intervention, we are going to get there. There's no stopper between here and there anymore. Don't know when, but I can't imagine it'll be 10 years or anything.
