Thanks. I was suspicious while reading. The language makes it feel like it's an official EU project, but there's no EU branding, links to anything in EU governing bodies. At best they seem to mention they applied for eu horizon funding, which anyone can do. Very much junk indeed.
Did you also build the interview AI part of it?
There is a podcast I really loved called the Future of Coding, where they dived into cool CS papers, which now has turned into 2.5 hours of two people talking about everything that tangentially related to the topic at hand, with no editing. I really do not know who their target audience is.

I don't have 2.5 hours to dedicate to a single podcast episode, on a topic that might be quite complex, while having to suffer through jokes and poor pacing.
My daily driver has been in for repairs, so for the past couple of weeks I've been using my Raspberry Pi 4-based "Hack-in-the-box" cyberdeck that I built in 2020.

The more I use it, the more I love it: Everything I need is readily available through the package manager. There are no interruptions and no nag screens. There is an unobtrusive icon at the top telling me that an update is available, but I get to install it on my schedule.

I've resisted the urge to sign into Google for Gmail and YouTube and my other social media accounts and I'm actually amazed at how little I miss it (though I still use those services from my phone, but I've been using them less)

Also, it being a home-built computer it comes with a couple of quirks: Its fan is extremely noisy, when you scroll the mouse wheel you hear a crackling noise on the speakers and the keyboard is very uncomfortable, but all of these gives it a "personality" that only endears it to me.

This is a broad question.

AI/ML needs a math-heavy background and also a lot of domain knowledge to make any sense.

I think the best path for software engineers to go into data is via data engineering or MLOps or whatever it is called tomorrow. This is relatively close to software engineering in many cases, however it's becoming more and more about writing YAML files, too.

What these field could really benefit from though is some software engineering best practices such as testing, linting, formatting and so on.
This is based on GNU Taler, which definetly isn't your usual crypto bs
I'm just guessing but this makes sense to me

Boring email jobs where people are on their computer most of the time anyway and meetings are simply status updates, there's no reason why remote work is any worse, and likely just boosts productivity because of the mental health benefits of no commute, better environment, no distractions, etc.

In terms of jobs which require more creativity and collaborative rigor, I imagine remote work is where that element suffers.
People bikeshed given choices. When people have one choice, they get onto writing code that actually matters.

GNU Taler is not crypto/"blockchain tech" in the traditional sense https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Taler
"crypto" != "blockchain".
> Taler does not require any Blockchain technology, and is also not based on proof-of-work or any other distributed consensus mechanism. Instead, Taler is based on blind signatures. However, it is theoretically possible to combine Taler with peer-to-peer crypto-currencies like Bitcoin.

> It would be possible, however, to withdraw coins denominated in Bitcoin into a Taler wallet (with an appropriate exchange), which would give some benefits over plain Bitcoin, such as instant confirmation times.

I don't really know what to make of it.

And in Japan iirc. In the rest of the world, though, the usual situation is around 2/3 Android and 1/3 iOS.
I’m getting weird vibes from this. I know Gruber is all in on Apple. I myself have a lot of Apple stuff. But he is an outsider, a consumer. I can’t fathom what’s going on in his head to take a position like “we all should pay Apple, and we must find ways to pay even more”. He mentions owning a device to the fullest extent but quickly dismisses it because… users dumb? Install bad software? He himself wrote multiple times about App Store overflowing with crappy apps and rip-offs. Apple doesn’t demonstrate superior curation and quality control. They frustrate developers of good apps and let through tonnes of shit. Also banned any hint of mature content.

In my eyes any sane customer take should look something like “yeah, they complied in the shittiest possible way because their legal team said it’s the only way. Let’s hope they’ll find a way to make it work the right way.”

I register a prediction. Once EU DMA goes into effect and forces some way of side loading on iOS we’ll see absolutely no change in user exploitation. No amount of bad software on iOS will meaningfully change the situation to justify Apple’s involvement in the app distribution.

Am I right in my understanding that HTMx is kinda "adding data requests to document elements".

I can see how that might be useful for simple things but for anything with any level of sophistication aren't you going to have to jump right into JavaScript?

I just don't really get the big picture of HTMx. Is it making easy things easy and leaving hard things to React or Vue or whatever?

Can someone please sell me on it - why should I be excited given that to get anything hard done I have to jump straight into JavaScript.
Makes a lot of sense from an investment perspective. Essentially only one of these companies needs to become really big to make it worth.

The ones losing out here are the founders most likely.
I'm concerned that really new cars are always expecting to be able to connect eventually, and that as a result it would start having issues after being disconnected for a long time.

I would say start with something like pico 8. It's not necessarily 3D but is easy and has a huge community around it. You'll quickly be making small games so there will be confidence boosts. And eventually you can embark on creating the game he wants to make.

I'm not comfortable with this line of argument. It makes it sound like these delivery companies are generous charities that act on the riders' best interests. Instead, they are just exploiting the most vulnerable not only on their extremely low pay and lack of welfare and benefits but also by treating them as disposable servants. It sounds a bit like something rich people say during a banquet about servants taking home their scraps. That doesn't sit right by me.

At least delivery robots are a realization of how these types look at people.
I don't think comparing a 2017 phone to a 2023 one is a fair comparison by any stretch.

If you want something more similar I would suggest the standard "Samsung galaxy S23" which has 8Gb compared to the IPhones 6Gb
parediffusers – `pared` down features `diffusers` -
I developed minimum function to generate images library without using huggingface/diffusers functions to understand the inner workings of the library.

Why Developed parediffusers?

While huggingface/diffusers is a powerhouse of versatility, its complexity can be a maze for those eager to understand the core of Diffusion Models. parediffusers has simplified the code by abandoning generality and only supporting stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2.

Key Features:
Simple Design: Operates at just 13% of the code length compared to StableDiffusionPipeline.

Direct Understanding: Using the diffusers code as a reference, I wrote a all mechanism minimum code, includes UNet and VAE, using only PyTorch and transformers with reducing code to ensure versatility.

Explore parediffusers and understand code which generate images: https://github.com/masaishi/parediffusers

Try to manage his expectations so you could do something simpler that he imagined and he would not be disappointed. And if he is still interested after the simple thing is done, you can explore it further.
I find it a bit insensitive to tell 'what he has to do' while not being in his situation. I do believe that you believe this and this comes from a good place but I can imagine that this can be quite a sting if he tried everything and then has to read this

I started work in a new company December 2023 and they did exactly what you said and boy, am I feeling great about this workplace! I do focus on my work, I achieve results, I make sure they are visible (some documentation and internal knowledge base management are involved but I don't detest it; it becomes the way to gauge my performance and I am not against it) and everyone is happy.

It's amazing how difficult this is for so many managers out there though.

It didn't seem to be a big deal for me when I started looking for work in a new country after being out of the job market for 14 months due to passport issues. But that could be that I was keenly aware of just how bad that looked, and took steps to ameliorate it.

Fear, uncertainty and doubt (often shortened to FUD) is a manipulative propaganda tactic used in sales, marketing, public relations, politics, polling and cults. FUD is generally a strategy to influence perception by disseminating negative and dubious or false information, and is a manifestation of the appeal to fear.
You should better compare it with humans consuming stuff they created themselves. Or in a perhaps more sickening way, an author who only reads what they have written themself.

We know that there is more than one AI software but there is not as much variation as for humans.

And as someone else already wrote here, humans have something like a ratcheting mechanism. I would paraphrase it as "Humans have learnt to stand on shoulders of giants". AI does not have this.

I have opposed Tailwind to no end. But I gave it a try and the portability it brings to markup is beyond description.

You just move HTML from anywhere and it would just look exactly the same (subject to your overrides/customisations of course) so I don't think Tailwind is going away anywhere.

Rather, it now can be thought of as a mini language or notation built on top of CSS.

Both MDN and the W3C complain about Prettier putting closing slashes on HTML tags such as <input />. While allowed due to backward compatibility to XHTML, they have never been specified, do nothing, and browsers ignore them so it is pointless to put them there.

Our Ruby guild is ~6 ppl and counting. We are all remote, and not a single one is in the same geo.

We throw "BTW this or that..." several times a day, it's obvious that we can, sometimes via DM, sometimes on specific or generic channels, depending on who we think might be interested in it. Knowledge propagates, discussions ensue, sometimes the original topic devolves into something else and ideas are born.

That's on top of a ~1h tech sync meeting every other week, where anything goes, questions get asked, ideas get challenged, notes get taken.

It works. In my experience it works better than watercooler because it's non-interruptive, scales across TZ, and everyone gets a chance to jump in or catch up later.
Assuming that there are no differences in productivity, working on-site is borderline morally evil.

It's unhealthier (loads of sleep deprivation out there), it's bad for the environment and its costs are higher. We can argue all day if the perks of in-person work are worth the cost, but if there aren't any perks besides "I just prefer it that way" I don't think there is even a valid discussion to have. We are talking some of the largest CO2 reductions possible from the average fellow together with more free time, less usage of infrastructure and possibly changes in the housing market.

A corporation doing this "just because" is comparable to a corporation purchasing mattresses to burn them in an open field "just because"

I think regardless of where you work there is an upper limit in time you actually are productive during a day and it is way way below 8 hours. Usually I do more in the first 2 hours of my shift than I do during the remaining 6 hours. Others might be more productive at different time of day depending on their own internal clock. We just can't be 100% focused on hour work and uninterrupted for so many hours.

Also since commute time is not accounted for in your work time, this is a moot point. You don't work more because you don't commute. You just have more free time to do stuff out of work.

Removing the exponential allows some linear algebra based tricks. It makes the state space linear. Linearity allows a kind of running sum, where the state space at time T is quickly computable from the state space at time T-1.

That linearity model simplification has model expressiveness costs, which is why they don't fit the training data as well.
Not everybody does annotations. Me or my family don't and I just asked my team mates, they don't either. Actually we are totally fine with viewing PDFs in the browser and that for sure speaks in favor of a HTML-based alternative.

Growing Pains for Typing in Python
I think there are lots of jobs that are meaningful in a macro sense, but tedious in a micro sense. Most teachers I know like having the identity of a teacher, feel like they are meaningfully contributing to society, but really don't enjoy 90% of the actual work they do.
So I'm not a morning person. As a new parent of a 1-year-old, I realized I can get an extra 45 minutes of sleep in the morning by leaving books in our baby's crib for her to look through when she wakes up. One night I left Computer Engineering for Babies in there, and after waking the next morning I looked on the baby monitor and I saw her turning the pages of the book, methodically pressing both buttons for the AND gate, one button at a time for the OR gate, etc. It was probably one of my proudest father moments so far. She was about 18 months at that point, and I hadn't seen her really understand the gates before.

1) Choose a type of game

2) Don't reinvent the wheel

I would suggest to take advantage of the library of open source games with source code available to explore. Maybe you could improve an open source game instead to create a new one

If is an adventure game, you could just design a new campaign for Wesnoth.

My advice would be to make a role game. With cool design and some bits of still 3D here and there.

It can use a mix of techniques, so you can take advantage of it to teach your child lots of new concepts.

Is easy. Much less frustrating than trying to recreate Saint Andreas type games. You don't need to mess with physics or how to make your characters walk an jump without glitches.

Can be finished in a weekend. Just a good history, several pictures of locations and some cards of characters to interact around. You can start with really simple rules and a few characters and call it a day. Mission accomplished.

Can be expanded. Add it more and more rich and interesting later, so your child will be entertained for much more time.

Is creative. Ask your son to design characters and monsters first and then draw the cards yourself. You could use an image manipulation program or use Stable diffusion to give life to your child ideas in realistic characters and cards, and your son will absolutely love it.

3) Don't use copyrighted material to create your game. Is teaching the wrong lazy lesson to your child. If you need a location background just use your own photos. Remember Flappy bird and use the game as an opportunity to educate your child in good practices.

4) If you feel brave, use blender for creating a small 3D scenery, or mm3d/freecad etc to draw detailed maps of buildings and areas.

Difficult to answer.

IPNS uses the IPFS kademlia DHT, which has some performance problems that you can argue are fundamental.

For solving a similar problem with iroh, we would use the bittorrent mainline DHT, which is the largest DHT in existence and has stood the test of time - it still exists despite lots of powerful entities wanting it to go away.

It also generally has very good performance and a very minimalist design.

There is a rust crate to interact with the mainline DHT, https://crates.io/crates/mainline , and a more high level idea to use DHTs as a kind of p2p DNS, https://github.com/nuhvi/pkarr
