Well for me I remember the big news about gangs buying up cold tablets for the pseudoephedrine that they had in them to make meth, so the pharmacies making it harder to buy them. Then the new ones on the shelves (which are marketed as ‘PE’ here) just plain don’t work at all, unlike the real ones (which you can still get but you have to ask the pharmacist for). So I read the ingredient list and googled it, and was annoyed to find my experience confirmed and that they’d replaced a really useful medication with one that basically everyone reported didn’t work.
No I it is a reasonable assumption based on how the OP responded to my comment.

I said:

> A bare minimum "are the kids physically ok" doesn't remove any of your freedom unless you consider starving and beating your kids a "Freedom" you care about.

Which they responded:

> I want more freedom, not less. I won't let authoritarian fear tactics change that.

They are trying to justify "more freedom" at the cost of children being abused. The only reasonable reason you would do this, when all I am asking for is basic checks to make sure a child is ok, is that you yourself which to starve and abuse children.

There is NO other valid reason to fight against what should be a basic protection for children. That reason doesn't exist. Especially when your only defense is "fear tactics".
We disagree, but that is ok. I am admittedly a little biased against nvidia. FWIW, your arguments are good. I think here it is a matter of perspective on what constitutes luck.

The social media van life trend is one thing. People choosing to live in their cars for financial reasons is another thing. Occasionally the two groups intersect, but there are plenty of cases where someone is living in their van/car so they can afford to stay in or near a location they can’t otherwise afford.

Some people have major debt, medical expenses, family situations etc that drove the original decision. Some people decide to start posting about their car life because why not? But don’t confuse the glitzy social media version of van life for the average experience.
Google's Document AI does a good job, but I'll need to test the equation handling again to be sure.
It stopped being useful to me a couple of months ago. My guess is that corporate figured out that they can dumb it down for the average person and rent out the better versions to the people with the deepest pockets. Most likely government/military.
Good idea. However, there is more to gain if database proxy were more intelligent.

1. A lot of OLTP databases are abused with OLAP-style queries. It would be great if the proxy could detect and re-route it to read replicas or the warehouse.

2. Caching on DB protocol often makes more sense.

3. You can expose better protocols for some clients (e.g. SQL over HTTP for serverless).

Not really. They did push CUDA and GPGPU on their own hardware while AMD and Intel offered a barely functional OpenCL. Of course they had no idea about how big AI and crypto would become, but they were there offering their cards to whoever wanted to run calculations on them.
Lot of things were happening before you started paying attention to it. GPGPU definitely wasn't just there being useless before crypto and AI didn't just "Come along" after crypto.

CUDA has been heavily utilized for AI for many many years now, whole reason Nvidia is so entrenched in it is because they were they only ones taking GPGPU seriously like OpenCL (1) rose and was abandoned before we even get to your interpretation of the timeline.

(1): Easy to forget now that AMD and Apple had an common standard competitor to CUDA and completely fumbled it.
How is it any more comical than a richer guy buying a different expensive watch to impress his peers? Pricey watches are obviously intended to be status symbols above all else, whether or not you dive.
It’s both. Plug and charge (sometimes referred to as P&C) is the full stack of systems and interactions involved in driving up to a charging station, plugging in your vehicle, transferring electrons, and getting charged for it, all without having to open an app or present a payment instrument at time of charge.

Electrify America has supported P&C for DC fast charging on Ford vehicles, for example, but it required setup beforehand, and came with downsides (like not supporting EA’s member-discount charge rate).
almost all of the social media put out by the "van life" folks is total BS and at least some of them have been willing to admit it

the reality of "van life" is Walmart parking lots, not Moab or Yosemite

again, if you follow the van life youtubers, many of them have come clean about the reality of it all

many of them also will admit they actually do have a permanent address somewhere out there

How much paperwork and what forms of ID were required to buy that much at one time? It sounds like a sarcastic question, but it is a serious one. The last time I was prescribed a codeine based cough syrup, my signature was required enough times to make me compare to financing a car/house.
I'm confused about the example for trait_variant:

```
#[trait_variant::make(HttpService: Send)]
...
```

In the given example, they create a trait with an async fn that returns HtmlBody, then the trait_variant macro makes a duplicate version of the trait but additionally with a Send bound on the future. Makes sense, because users commonly need the future to be Send.

But... what's the point of having two traits? Could there not just be one trait, with the Send bound? Doesn't the Send bound only increase the places it can be used? Are there scenarios where you need the future to not be Send?

Before jumping to conclusions, are we sure these Waymos hit from behind didn't awkwardly and randomly stop in the middle of a busy intersection (where no sane human driver would)?

I know YouTube videos aren't always representative of reality, but there are some videos of these cars randomly driving extremely slowly in very busy intersections which might be a contributing factor to getting rear-ended, even if it's not Waymo's "fault" from an insurance perspective.
Trickle down has had some four decades to prove itself and, well, it just doesn't work. It's amazing there are people who still believe in it.

So many folks saying "phenylephrine is useless". The oral formulation, yes, precisely because not enough of the drug actually makes it to your nasal passages.

So just take a nasal spray. I get it, all the pills that include it should have it removed, but I don't understand why people just wouldn't use the nasal spray. Personally I don't like decongestant drugs at all because I always feel like I get a stronger "rebound", and a netty pot makes me feel considerably better in any case.

It is 100% a fact, not because code is or isn't an asset in the financial sense, but because "code is an asset" is my mental model that I think could help others.

You cannot say that my mental model is not a fact; only I can say that.

Also, if you don't think it's a good model, you should argue why instead of just saying I'm wrong with no substance.
That's not the natural choice. The natural choice is to find the bottom of the barrel outside care and have a second income because we've made it financially impossible to do anything else.
> single lower level unit test but that test will require more frequent maintenance as the code around it evolves due to refactoring.

"more frequent" is not the same as "high maintenance costs" though.

Unit tests should only change when the unit-under-test (sut) changes. Which, for many units is "never". And for some with high churn, indeed, a lot.

Actual and pure e2e tests should never have to change except when the functionality changes.

But all other integration tests most often change whenever one of the components changes. I've had situations where whenever we changed some relation, or added a required-field in our database, we had to manually change hundreds of integration tests and their helpers. "Adding a required field" then became a chore of days of wading through integration tests¹.

With the unit-tests, only one, extremely simple test changed in that case.
With the end-to-end-tests, also, hundreds needed manual changes. But that was because they weren't actual end-to-end tests, and did all sorts of poking around in the database. Worse: that poking-around wasn't abstracted even.

What I'm trying to convey with this example, is that in reality, unit-tests change often if the SUT has a high churn, but that those changes are very local and isolated and simple. Yet, in practice, with integration-tests, the smallest unrelated change to a "unit" has a domino-effect on whole sections of these tests.
(And also that in this example, our E2E were badly designed and terribly executed)

¹Edit: one can imagine the pressure of management to just stop testing.
If code is a good abstraction, it's a valuable asset.

Else, it's a liability.
"Get a list of visible SSIDs" is exactly how phones derive your location. There's little distinction between seeing SSIDs and seeing GPS coordinates for 99.9% of the population.
I dealt with something similar just yesterday and also free tier.

The mastodon client I really want is my web browser. I want my web browser to be able to go to a mastodon web server and see HTML of posts (and responses! so no, /embed is not a solution) with actual text. This traditional form of interface was removed in most mastodon implementations from version 3 and on for some reason. Requiring execution of complex code, either in the browser as javascript, or on your computer as a native client, is not cool. At least for twitter there's nitter but there's no easy way to read mastodon posts/threads.
Whether the user is aware and opt _in_ is the issue, right? But all of the network signals that are triggered by web applications, phone apps, OS, isn't it almost always possible to get SOME information about a user's geo location?

There's a theory that Silk Road's Ross Ulbricht leaked his location via a Captcha on a website, despite actively covering his tracks.

I think Bitcoin's Satoshi is/was an Australian bloke living in Japan because of his wording + timestamp on posts.

I was able to send a friend a little hello message via a Facebook ad by hyper targeting them (before fb disallowed that), which also confirmed their location.

They mostly run old kernels because their vendors do not keep them up to date, and the community does not have champions willing to upstream support for them. In theory it should still be entirely possible to refresh those devices with a modern kernel and user space. Patches would likely be welcomed upstream as well.
It wasn't so much about the flaws in the current drug policy in Portland, as flaws in implementation.

Portland planned to decriminalize a lot of things and put a bunch of other measures and support systems in place. COVID and other things hit, and all that got enacted was decriminalization with none of the guard rails or help mechanisms, with predictable outcomes.
When they first developed CUDA, they did not yet have that huge of a windfall from crypto-mining. It was first released in June 2007. I would say it was more of the result of seeing initiatives of ham-fisting general-purpose computation onto graphics-specific API like OpenGL and such.
> > What problem was Kubernetes trying to solve? How did the solution address the problem? What problem was Agile trying to solve? How did the solution address the problem? It’s only by examining these questions can an organization make the solution their own.

> But then doesn't go onto to actually examine or explore these questions in the blogpost, just moves on and ignores those questions after bringing them up.

Isn't that the point of the article? He is not trying to demonstrate to the audience "This is the problem Agile was intended to solve. This is how it addressed that problem.", he is pointing out that Agile is deployed as a solution without ever considering the problem that that solution was supposed to address.

The blog post, to me, seemed to be proposing a refinement of the problem before a solution is proposed. Pointing out that many solutions are proposed before a problem statement is posed is the entire point of the blog post, not answering the questions he asks about commonly deployed solutions.

What evidence do you have to support your assertion that women would naturally give up their independence to stay at home?
The problem is thinking there's a correct side.

If you believe life begins at conception and that ending a life is murder, then naturally you're going to believe that abortion is murder and is therefore immoral.

If you do NOT believe life begins at conception than naturally you're not going to believe it's murder and therefor not going to believe it's immoral.

It's possible to disagree with someone's stance on abortion without thinking of it as correct or incorrect.

edit: why is it people insist on arguing even when the entire point is that arguing about it isn't all that meaningful? The overarching point is to stop acting as if people are definitely right or wrong. stop arguing over semantics of words.
I'm not advocating we ban the default keymap. I'm advocating that we move it.

You may like it fine, but I find it in my way more often than not.

What does it truly mean to be newbie-friendly? Are you trying to teach them the functionality of your software, or your opinions about how to use it? Why not teach newbies (find-file) first? Would that really be so bad? Why not give them both options?
Apple did no such thing. Apple's GPU IP was purchased from Imagination Technologies and is based heavily on PowerVR.
You're conflating "utility to user" with "utility to developer". A flashlight app has no utility to the user, it doesn't really matter to me that it's useful to its developer (for collecting my personal data).
Depends on where you live - you might have to pay a small fee to “rent” the book. Or a library subscription.
No, Nvidia has spent considerable resources to support ML for I think a decade now? They certainly got lucky in the crypto craze and of course the timing of AI off the failings of crypto is extremely lucky but you are wrong in the rest of the argument.
It's really silly to argue that something with >50% market share (in the US at least) is a status symbol...

1. the placebo effect is strong

I feel like that doesn't paint the whole picture. I'm guessing incidents like [1] don't make it into those stats:

> The safety driver unwittingly turned off the car’s self-driving software by touching the gas pedal. He failed to assume control of the steering wheel, and the Pacifica crashed into the highway median.

Why are these not counted? Are they really looking at their car crashes, or just autonomous driving software being in control during those car crashes?

Maybe they want to argue the software is safe, but that doesn't change the fact that I'd still be scared of getting into that car.

Given the dimensions involved, the billions of miles, any deflection would create a miss. If we are certain that an asteroid is actually going to hit earth many years/decades out, then even a microscopic nudge in any direction would shift the closest approach by an earth-width. So precise aim might not be as important as getting the bomb out there asap. The earlier it is done, the less push is necessary to generate a miss. Of course, this is premised on us having near-perfect knowledge of the initial trajectory.
What? How would you get that data? Look Waymo vs top 10% of drivers?

why does everyone fail to understand that the reason real estate is an "investment" is because prices are skyrocketing because supply is artificially constrained. If we just built properly real estate wouldnt be such a great investment.

My parents happened to buy their house in an area that wasnt super desirable and continued to not be super desirable. If they had just invested their down payment in the S&P it would be worth twice what the house is. But as it is, investors seem convinced real estate is a great investment because governments refuse to let people build so prices continue to skyrocket.

In Japan the value of a building reaches $0 after 30 years because they rebuild everything. A building is an inherently depreciating asset, yet my tenement in Boston build in the 1880's continues to go up in value because they cant build shit.
Teams and founders who have built material value deserve liquidity and an exit. It sucks when they exit to these sorts of orgs, propose a better path that maintains the value but still provides the exit. Customers becoming shareholders through a direct offering comes to mind, but there are other avenues.
They'll also benefit from the boom on the graphics side as well.

Once gen AI gets good enough to generate high quality video games, virtual worlds, etc. in real time, that will redefine gaming and entertainment.

Why wait for the next Mission Impossible movie to come out when you can experience it...as Tom Cruise...with your own storyline with all of your friends. And get a new one every day.
My observation is that publishers have already pushed authors to write shorter novels and simply split those into multiple parts.

Why sell one book when you can sell a three part series.

This means the 15 hour limit is likely to only affect older novels before publishers caught onto this strategy.
The grid is still a big bottleneck across the board, from production (can't connect wind or solar farms) to deliver (can't connect charging stations, etc).
Spotify is constantly finding new ways to irritate me when opening their app.

I just want to listen to music, but their app wants me to look at modal popups for promos I don't care about, and recommends me music genres that neither I nor anyone I know wants.

I donate to NOYB, but I second your sentiment.
No, Nvidia decided to change their GPU architectures to be more suitable for neural networks, so they did have to bet that this shift would have to pay off. They spoke to many leading AI experts and came to this conclusion. They should be commended for the risk they took. If Nvidia solely ended up being "lucky", then how come AMD didn't take off?
Because you bought a closed-source device by which you surrendered your privacy to whatever the source-controlling company wants.
IIRC people were already converting their data into texture maps and writing their SIMD instructions as shaders operating on those textures before Nvidia released CUDA.
