The Albertan above was reporting a temperature of -32°C. Searching a few sites online, it was hard to find any data on that. -15°C meant 50% range.
I'm guessing your car probably also has battery heating though. And so long as the grid was able to handle it (which does seem to be a problem from the comments above in Alberta even with their tiny EV fleet) most likely you'd just plug it in, and it would stay nice and warm all night with no range impact in the morning - at the cost of a bit of power..

These kind of users do not matter, they are just there to complain about some random detail to make them feel important. If it wasn't this, it would be something else.

Every app has those and that's why you get nudged about giving a review when you are using an app, because otherwise only these entitled users would give one.
Nice project! I love Calibre's functionality, but I too was kind of frustrated by its UI and started designing an interface that kind of looks like a mixture of pre-Apple-Music iTunes and iBooks. I only created one screen so far, but feel free to take a look:
https://www.figma.com/file/m8qaYbPSnxiFPDPbuYtz2w/Calibre-re...

My main question was, how could Calibre's main functionality be presented in a UI that feels native to macOS?

Since this doesn't try to be cross-platform, I might try to build this as a SwiftUI app with your Rust backend if I find the time.

Kudos on actually publishing this! It might be hard to maintain something that keeps up with Calibre's development, but it sure seems like a fun hobby project :)

Would be nice. I think the main fix would be making sure that debt used to buy companies can never be transferred to the company purchased. I understand that money is fungible, but accounting is often there to deal with the most egregious abuses of fungibility. It would at least make leveraged buyouts much more expensive. Especially since now, the purchased company needs to maintain some kind of profitability over several years to be able to service this debt. Oh, and make it so the purchased company cannot borrow money for several years after purchase. If the purchaser wants to borrow money and infuse it into the company that's fine. I know there's still all kinds of accounting shenanigans that can be played to payout to PE purchasers, but that'd be a good first step I think.

Dam man.. that one always gets me...
The idea that everything is a grand conspiracy is a clear indication of lack of knowledge in critical thinking. You don't have the information necessary to make these conclusions, yet you say it anyway. This demonstrates a lack of intellectual honesty and serves nothing other than personal feelings of superiority often associated with narcissism and ego.

The psychedelics you are against would show you what it feels like to live without the emotional factors you use to think. Giving you control of yourself to persue truth seeking.
Not sure which side you're arguing. Does the US even have automated speed traps? Every time I hear about them, there's opposition and it doesn't happen. I think the most recent one I heard about in the US, the plan was to issue a ticket unless the speed is at least 11mph over the limit, which seems... both fine but also kinda silly?

Red light cameras were even a big fight to get implemented back when they were a new idea, though they're relatively uncontroversial these days.

To me, the difference is that the speed limit is intentionally poorly enforced, because law enforcement knows that speed limits in many places are set inconsistently and at unreasonable levels (and I believe that's also intentional; I recall reading that limits in many places are set at the 85% percentile of actual measured traffic speed, or something like that). An automated speed trap can't judge whether a particular speed is safe for the current weather and traffic conditions.

On the other hand, it's never safe to run a red light; that's just a binary "you did it"/"you didn't do it". Yes, I know, technically it is safe to run a red light when visibility is plentiful and there's no cross-traffic within sight, but I think we as a society have accepted the idea that you just shouldn't run red lights, and getting ticketed for doing so is fine under nearly any circumstances.

I was thinking about this and one way of thinking is what u said. We already allow sale of spaceships which have non-zero failure rate. So we don't necessarily need zero failure rate self driving.

But a problem with cars is, usually ur malfunctioning calculator just harms u, but a malfunctioning car will affect people who don't agree with ur choice of driving non-zero failure rate self driving car.

So it is not a personal choice anymore.

Most of this can be done statically. You do the bookkeeping once. There are various approaches—you can try to allocate registers, or you can emit code that loads/stores on the stack, or you can just run an interpreter and remove the safety checks from it.

The stack isn’t dynamically typed, so it doesn’t make sense to trap.

Hmm. Writing a wrapper that uses autocomplete definitions might be more useful... There's also the approach of Zenity that gives you the ability to create GUIs from shell scripts. When you do have a gui from parser tool, it can be quite nice (like Python's gooey).

Yes, though thankfully ondnanestron has a shockingly good safety profile for a serotonergic antiemetic. That said, reducing that external complexity would be nice.

CBD actual has some mild antiemesis properties as well and can be as immediately effective as Zofran if inhaled. I once backpacked with a dab pen and CBD due to having constant nausea, the crystal CBD isolate was easier to source and refill (since it's hemp derived) and the dab pen meant that I got nausea relief in seconds.

Unfortunately CBD in ultra high doses can contribute to serotonin syndrome IIUC due to 5-HT1A activation (which is how it exerts anti-emetic effects IIUC/IIRC). So that of course is always a big problem and I think can make polypharmacy with it a bit more difficult (though I am of course not a doctor and this is not medical advice).

That said CBD does help w.r.t. some social inhibitions due to autism IIRC and when I was dabbing between 300 mg - 1 g a day I definitely noticed a very calm, warm, low-key "peace" about the world that I very much appreciated. That was very nice indeed.

Also, ginger can be nice for oral nausea as IIRC, however it does not cross the gut barrier as well so it takes more (and sometimes the spiciness can be a problem). It also inhibits a bunch of CYP enzymes as well which is something to consider (I guess many things do, but I tend to use it more as an emergency backup of emergency backups when I don't have anything else available to me. Order generally is Zofran -> CBD (200-300 mg sublingual if not urgent) -> Pepto -> Slightly more Pepto+Ginger depending upon urgency/availability. Refilling prescriptions can be a problem due to the overwhelm of autism for me, so I try to dole/parse it out sparing, at least as I am able to. <3 :'))))

Happy to answer any questions, sorry this was an autistic infodump, really like this topic here.b<3 :'))))

I don't think such a comparison is useful here. That said, there is a clear difference between group and individually focussed hate. For some reason Sourcehut is clearly being singled out.

I don't think it is a strictly fascist ideology at all. I see people on both the left and right with a range of opinions on this subject. You'll find the majority of people are resistant to any form of change, whether rightfully or wrongly.

It's difficult to know who is the insane one there, the person who is committed or the person who dives so deeply into another person's life.

I think it would generally be a mistake to assume that this attack is based on the gender of a single employee at Sourcehut. To me it would be just as likely to be something they host, or something they refuse to host.
Yes, totally agree. These implementations are meant for educational purposes. You could in theory use them to train a model though (GPT-2 also had a from-scratch implementation if I recall correctly). In practice, you probably want to use FlashAttention though. You use it through `torch.nn.functional.scaled_dot_product_attention` etc.

The app transferred 1.56MB of data in 3.5 months. While the could include lots of data that I don't want them to have, at least it's not a massive amount indicating non stop tracking.

Ultimately you're right, and I would love to have the two appliances fully local (the other smart things don't even have Internet access, thanks to awesome projects such as Tasmota or Valetudo), including fancy program selection.
> After a while of the discussion going nowhere, the psychoanalyst said something like this. "Not to worry, Dave, I know you're dynamically minded enough that you'll eventually learn to agree with me."

It looks like psychoanalyst suffered from a professional deformation. Not enough evidence to be sure, but it is the main premise of psychoanalysis that psychoanalyst knows better then his "patient". A psychoanalyst knows what his patient feels, thinks, wishes, and so on. If patient doesn't agree then it is a "resistance" and overcoming it is the first priority task for a psychoanalyst.

> I guess that was more condescending than pejorative, but oh well.

The whole statement is condescending, but not because of "dynamically minded". It is "you'll learn to agree with me" that does the trick.

WASM is kind of a stack machine, yes, but there are a lot of constraints on the stack machine that are designed to make it easy to translate to registers.

If you squint and look sideways, you can think of it as a flattened tree, rather than a stack machine.

Yes, precompilation is not optional. I've used many languages in sandboxes over the years developing both this and other emulators.

I really like Nim the most. It's Python spiritually, but with types. Types just really really necessary, and it does have FFI support so you can forward arguments either from a wrapper or use {.cdecl} directly. It's still not a barneskirenn (as we say in Norway), but definitely the most fun I've had using another language in my various sandboxes.

Nelua and Zig are close seconds. Both are just so easy to work with C-based FFI. Nelua is probably not safe to use, as it's still a work in progress. At least last I checked. Zig is very much ready to use. Maybe not your cup of tea, though.

Golang has a complex run-time and I don't recommend using it. It's definitely possible though as my sandbox does have a full MMU. Just expect integration to be long and ardous. And the ABI changes potentially every version.

Rust is one of the easier ones. I didn't find it fun to work with though. It has by far the best inline assembly, but too much fighting with the compiler. I know that people love Rust, and it is fully supported in my emulator.

C/C++ has the benefit of having the ability to have their underlying functions overridden by native helper system calls. Eg. replacing memcpy() with a system call that has native performance. It's too long a long topic to talk about here, but Nim and Nelua also falls under this umbrella along with other languages that can compile to C/C++.

Kotlin is definitely possible to use. A bit hard to understand how the native stuff actually works, but I did manage to run a hello world program in several sandboxes with some effort. I'm not 100% sure but I think I managed to convert a C API header directly to something kotlin understands using a one-liner in the terminal. I would say it scores high just on that. Again, just a bit hard to understand how to talk to Kotlin from an external FFI looking in.

JavaScript is of course possible with both jitless v8 and QuickJS. v8 requires writing some C++ scaffolding + host API functions, and QuickJS requires the same in C. Either works.

And I think that's all the languages I have tried. If you think there's a missing language here, then I would love to try it!
Gotcha, do you have any numbers to demonstrate that?

For example, I did a quick google search, and between 2012 to 2023 12,497 golden visas were granted in Portugal.

It is highly unlikely that 12,000 families coming to Portugal is causing this? Right? Or what am I missing here?

It seems like a "blame the immigrant" type thing when in fact it is a failure to build enough housing like almost every country except Austria and Singapore.

Do you know what the D7 visa numbers are? Brazilian immigrants are also coming on other types of visas. One of my wife's doctors moved from Brazil and is one of the best rehab doctors we've ever had.

> M&A is one of two ways a pot of gold happens.

I don't know what the second one he has in mind is; the some of the ones I know are:

1 - operate a profitable business that throws off a ton of cash (these can be huge, like Koch, Cargill, Aldi, and can make long term employees extremely, and privately, rich).

2 - sell part of your company to the public (IPO)

3 - sell the whole company (M&A)

4 - spin out or sell off a division (a kind of M&A)

One major disadvantage of 2-4 is that other people tend to hear about it.

Personally, it's confusing to me what D's niche would be if they go all in on the GC. I get that it didn't really have a solid niche before either, because it was basically just a 10% better C++, without any really distinguishing killer feature, so it was kind of a hard sell, because most people are either going to stick with C++ for the existing support and code bases and industry, or are going to use Rust for greenfield projects, or Zig if they want simplicity, especially since with C++ 20 a 10% better C++ already exists, but I don't think focusing on having a garbage collector really helps so much? All this means is that it's going to be competing with C# and Java, which are already the garbage collected, safe, streamlined C++ successors and have been intended to be such since their inception, and I don't see how you can really compete with either of those languages at this point. Especially C# with its actually pretty excellent low level and unsafe capabilities like raw pointers and control over whether things are reference or value types and control over the layout of things in memory and stuff like that, combined with its pretty okay (for an OOP first language of its age) type system and reflection and all of the ML family features it's been getting.

Honestly, I've always felt really confused about what D's vision is. I've tried reading some of the docs about certain language features like better see and safe mode and lifetimes and they've been grammatically just kind of hard to read and generally poorly explained, despite going into great detail on things, and I've never really been able to get a sense for a coherent design vision or purpose for the language. The author mentions that this has been a problem, but I don't feel their vision is really any clearer. Yes they have a few concrete midterm technical goals, which is great, but it isn't clear to me what those goals are in service of. Honestly, I'm a rust programmer, so you know what I do for Greenfield personal projects, but I'd rather just use OCaml, C++, or even C# if I had to pick something else.
