A man’s gotta eat.
I'm sorry, but I have to respectfully disagree with you. Some years ago a work colleague went on holiday to America (I'm English) and brought back some Hershey chocolate. At that point I had never heard about American chocolate tasting like vomit, but when I tried it that's what I immediately thought of. I then looked online and found out the reason it tasted like that. Since I'd never heard anything bad about American chocolate at that point it can't be blamed on propaganda.

Yeah nothing wrong with that. This is how it goes for me though:

1. Company stuffs ads down my throat.

2. I use adblocker

3. Company blocks me

4. I ignore company.

The whole problem starts at (1) which is "create a business supported only by advertising revenue". That says your actual product is worth fuck all.
Right now it is managed using blender, and then I back it up and version it manually, which is pretty common for blender workflows.

I am planning an overhaul in a bit. I looked into sun, but would probably rather use git lfs honestly. There are also options for uncompressed files to be stored as text, but it doesn't seem like you can get away from binary data completely. I haven't tried to hard to focus on it yet. It is somewhat frustrating that there isn't a clearly good free option.
Doesn't the same footgun apply to function call arguments which are evaluated in an unspecified order?

f(a++, b++)

That footgun doesn't seem to have very much impact in the real world that I've seen. Largely because people do not write complex expressions like that anymore. Since we already mostly avoid such expressions, we may as well take the benefit for designated initializers.
You are right. I regret the language that I used, which was unnecessarily hostile.

it's partly because of the engine code. there's even bigger stuff, especially especially if it's a company with any legacy codebase that's 10-20 years old or whatever (e.g. EA / Frostbite.) one i worked on took hours to compile the first time on a machine with 128gb of ram and a threadripper. the onboarding doc suggests getting some coffee at that point haha

a big part of working on them as a generalist ends up being the ability to know how to even navigate something like that (especially since they're often haphazardly documented)

(part of it is that most of the games "fork" the engine rather than using it as a standalone thing)

it's probably not everyone on the team building that whole thing each time, but yea. hundreds of solutions and millions of LOC isn't unusual

For 35mm, flatbeds just do not have comparable resolution to a digital camera with a good macro lens. The most you'll get out of the best flatbed is about 2300dpi (measured from resolved detail, not pixels). Generally, you end up with about 6-8MP of usable detail.

If you own a digital camera already and are comfortable tinkering with your setup and workflow at first, camera scanning is the way to go. You'll get almost the full detail that 35mm film has to offer in less time overall for about the same cost.
The main time killer in day-to-day work on such big projects is usually the linker step, which is terribly slow with the MSVC linker and doesn't benefit from incremental or distributed compilation (not sure though how much the MSVC linker has improved in the last 5 years or so).

Just took it for a spin. Interface looks decent. I love that I'm able to invert colors aka PDF dark mode cheat.

But I don't seem to be able to add annotations to a PDF and sync that back to my desktop, which is a bummer. I'm sure that will work in the future, and then I will finally be able to read and annotate papers on a tablet.

Okular set a high bar for what a good PDF Reader can do, this is surprisingly decent. The one killer feature which I don't anticipate any other software to implement any time soon is the "trim margins" feature of Okular, which makes pdfs so much more readable. For some.of those journals, the margins are like 30% of the width, that's some serious screen read estate, and the text is often too small already with academic papers.
Take heart.

My wife almost died early this year from a hospital deciding to rush her Sodium level restoration because beds were scarce and profitable. She now suffers from extreme anxiety, her previous life as a happy, well-balanced mom is over, and as I write, she’s in the next room chattering in nonsense to herself because it’s how her brain copes. It’s worse in the mornings, gets better, briefly, in the afternoons as she gains more higher-level function, until her loss and grief for that overwhelm her, and she reverts again.

I won’t go into the litany of pain and suffering she continues to go through, suffice it to say she has had a variety of terrible-to-observe, worse to endure, symptoms throughout the year. Screaming in agony for hours, in first or third person, in hospital or at home, when painkillers just don’t work is not an experience anyone should go through.

The highlight of today is that a friend has invited us around for an Xmas meal. It’ll be our first social engagement since it happened, so there’s some risk. It’s at 4pm, which is usually her best time of the day, so we’re hopeful things can play out “normally”. I guess we’ll see, sometimes you have to risk things, just to make progress. I don’t think my friend actually realises just how much it means to us what his family have done, but I am so grateful that I cried on getting the invite. It can be hard to struggle alone.

So again, take heart. There is always something worse that could have happened, even for us. Don’t let the past dictate the future - you can’t change the past, but you can influence the future.

And I will join you in hoping that next year will be better.

[edit: thank you all for the kind wishes. Xmas has been hard so far because the sense of loss she feels is so much stronger than normal, but we live in hope]
Power PC led on floating point performance and Intel led on integer performance.

Since printing and graphics were one of Apple's largest markets, they were better positioned in that market with good floating point performance.

It's also the reason that Apple showed off Mac vs. PC Photoshop performance so frequently in that time period.

Your BMW 1 series is considered a luxury car. A new sedan is close to twice the Model 3.

Tesla is not a luxury car company. You pay a premium for the electric part, and put up with everything else.

They took a risk that nobody else was willing to make and proved a market. We're in a better place, ecologically speaking because of them. Their cars are also cheaply made. Now that manufacturers that know what they're doing are competing, Tesla is in trouble.
This is pretty much like the piracy argument where the assumption is there is 100% buy-in from people if they don't pirate. There isn't. Likewise, here. If you insist on forcing ads then I won't participate. There are no monetary damages as people refuse to look at or listen to ads.

Just use your embeddings model of choice that works with your language, I believe Ada from openai is multilingual but I don’t know what languages it works well on, there are many embedding models out there, huggingface is your friend in this search. The output is just a vector and the rest of the system can basically stay the same. The only other thing that may need to change depending on language is any text preprocessing you need to do like word or sentence breaking for languages with compound words (German), agglutination (Turkish), etc.

An iPad is fantastic for some activities like: Active reading when you can use the pencil to mark and write on the ebook; Drawing with apps like procreate; Writing with apps like iA Writer; General productivity things as many apps have iPad companions; and General browsing as it has a bigger screen than the iPhone.

AFAIK, Safari is sticking to the web standards. I use it on my Mac and all the website I visit and the web apps I'm using is working there. Only google's ones keep telling me they're not enabling some features because I'm not using Chrome. And I prefer not having this feature if it means downloading a specific browser for it. Web tech is web tech, there shouldn't be Google tech and everyone else tech.
I agree with this, and I will take it a step further: people who want the compiler to know the ranges of their variables to enable better optimizations should use the various "assume" attributes/builtins which have existed for a long time. The compiler can do way more if it knows your loop count is max 5 than if it knows it is max 2 billion.

Never saw this recommendation. Some people do, because they have time of use plans which offer completely free and renewable charging or cheaper[1]. And there is no time restriction on charging, cars are parked 22+ hours a day, you can charge anytime except when you drive.

EVs can charge anytime power is negative or close to zero.

Web backends in Rust and C++? Not saying web frameworks in these languages don't exist but to claim they're anything other than curiosities is misleading. In any case, good luck with the fraction of a millisecond such languages gain you while waiting on database i/o. There are use cases for switching to a compiled language like Rust or C++. Web back-ends isn't one of them.

> half a billion queries a month across 14 tiny VPSes

For reference:

$ units -1v '1|2 billion reqs/month / 14 servers' 'req/sec/server'
1|2 billion reqs/month / 14 servers = 13.580899 req/sec/server

I always do this when I see large-sounding query counts; a month has a lot of seconds in it, and it’s easier to visualize only one at a time: I can imagine hooking a speaker up to the server and getting a 14Hz buzz, or do a quick mental arithmetic and conclude that we have ~70ms to serve each request. (Though peak RPS is usually more relevant when calculating perf numbers; traffic tends to be lumpy so we need overhead to spare at all other times which makes the average much less impressive-sounding.)
Your claim that Twitter has rational administration is a very bold one. (Which accidentally strengthens your confirmation of me "hitting the nail on the head".)

The only reason I bought a Tesla in April of this year is because they'd sell me one. Every other car company gave me the same line: give us money, we'll call you in July/August. They all had outrageous dealer markups. Two weeks after I bought my car, Tesla lowered the price on the X: they sent me a check for the difference. I ended up calling customer service to figure out why they'd sent me a check!

agreed. It’s a great solution for a flight crew that is most likely unable/unwilling to troubleshoot stale DHCP leases or bouncing ifaces. The only disadvantage is that if the Internet reset button doesn’t work for whatever reason, the FAs will mark the entire system INOP for your entire six hour cross country flight that you planned to work on...

That also involves insurance companies. I wonder how many of them have "exposure" on both sides of the medical business. So long as they can raise premiums/limit coverage they can seek rents. US medicine needs first and foremost transparency at every level. Transparency is in many ways obstructed by HIPAA. Sure, I wouldn't want even my largely unremarkable medical history plastered all over the Internet along with my more or less personally identifiable information or mined to target/discriminate against me, but there has to be a better way where we can use the information to lower costs and improve outcomes.

Another key piece is the discrete cosine transform.

Most image and video codecs (JPEG and MPEG and AV1 too) use DCT or a related technique. It's a very simple idea at its core. The algorithm looks for an equation that, when plotted, somewhat looks like the original bitmap. The set of possible equations are picked so they can produce a lot of complex different patterns, and be compactly represented.

In more detail, the sum of a set of sine waves, can describe discrete data, or vice versa. It is related to how the sum of square waves produced by a digital to analog converter, are exactly the same as the original analog waveform, within the sampling rate and bit depth limits. Once the data is transformed into a set of sine waves added up, you can drop the minor terms with relatively little effect on the output. The more terms you drop, the higher the compression, and the more blobby and repetitive the pattern, and the blurrier and less detailed the result.

This technique is also used in lossy audio compression.

Ruby the language may be fast but the whole ecosystem is painfully slow. Try writing a server that serves 1mb of json per request out of some db query and some calls to other services. I get 100 requests per second in Rails. Same service rewritten in go serves 100k requests/s.

We have the technology for reliable energy production, it’s called nuclear. For political reasons, we sacrifice our stability, do I get this right?

First of all, thanks for reminding me about ge/gij. I am born in Flanders, raised in Flemish, and lived there for 28 years and I forgot about that.

When I was growing up people did not address me with je/jij. My mom was a teacher. Ge/gij all the time.

And if you want to be polite you would switch to u/u.

And I get the same vibes as you do. But since ge/gij is not suitable for formal communication I insist on using u/u. This also increases the barrier to use any kind of infantile cosy language.

It's a lot more common than you'd think. I'm not in gamedev but similarly weird (multiple supported userspaces and OS's for embedded an device line) our "full build" is probably approaching 50M+ lines and only quite recently do people do incrementals from a build server snapshots. No bazel or distributed ccache or anything.
