At one point, they produced a series of 'Youtube Original' content [1] available only to Youtube Red/Premium subscribers.

It ran from 2016 to 2023, they tried celebs like Will Smith and youtubers like PewDiePie, a variety of episode lengths and formats, and even some content in different languages.

They don't produce it any more; I suspect it was not a commercial success.

Evaluating Large Language Models for PowerPoint Task Completion (2023)
If you can share a bank account, you probably get along pretty well. If you don't get along, "money issues" is probably one of the first places that will show up.
I have heard/read that should be audited by Microsoft or any of the other large software houses that do that, they don't care for any certificate of authenticity or license keys, or anything.

They want to see a valid purchase order for the SKU of the license.

So, I think using a keygen might raise some red flags if the auditing software reports back the key even if it's the same SKU you paid for (and it had better be) but the proof of a paid order is what determines if you are licensed.

Seems pretty clear most of the fantastic results from before was overfitting. Like every other case. It's amazing to me how these models can be caught red handed being overfitted again and again and again, and people don't get the memo.
That's quite a lot considering the VM has to be re-downloaded and re-installed ever month
This is how I imagine the error code looks. How else can you even return the wrong error?

```c#

public class FooError {

public Message(){

//TODO: I copy pasted this from somewhere else. I still need to update to a meaningful message

return "this is a BarError"

}

}
```
The state space here is subsets of V, but not all possible subsets and not exponential. The entire state is represented by the priority queue at each step which is bounded by the number of nodes and edges. And each state represented (encoded) by the priority queue transitions to exactly one new state (by popping the top node from the queue and adding the neighbours). And the number of steps is also bounded by the number of edges and nodes in V.

Most importantly, at every step of the algorithm, we only need to preserve the previous node in the state space (the previous state of the priority queue) to compute the new state (pop the top and add the dirty neighbours) and we can forget all previous states that existed before. We don't even need to keep track of the visited nodes, although if we did, that wouldn't change anything.

I don’t follow. Non-unique packages is a metric that explicitly only includes packages that are present across multiple distros?
"I love doing ** because it gives me a dopamine hit!" — so annoying.

Here's what dopamine does, in very simplistic words, from a dopamine connoisseur (i.e. ADHD person): it tells your brain "hey, this is important, carry on!". It's not responsible for the pleasure, it's just motivates you to continue doing a thing.

Dopamine is when you're hungry, and tremble in excitement before your first bite of a hot pizza. Dopamine is the thrill of the chase.

This attitude seems a little silly to me—being "extra vigilant, pedantic and strict" about happy-path code would necessarily imply the same about "exception and error paths". Generally speaking, bugs mostly appear in a binary fashion and not in varying degrees—ie your code either reflect expected behavior or doesn't.

Amusingly this comment and replies are exactly the problem here.

You say 300k is the maximum anyone should have, people reply stating it's way too low. Ok, so what is the number, 600, 1M, 10M? Hint, we'll never agree and it's as clear as day to me.

Comments are also stating why 99.5% don't see why we take the "rich's" money. This thread is proof of why.
That's because most CS graduates can't code. At all. So yea...
I hear you. It is no easy feat. I just have the hunger to build something much bigger and I m not just talking about money.
Same here. YouTube was my TV. But it wasn't the ads (I don't get any and don't get blocked). It's the trashy content it pushes me which I don't even watch. So my startpage is full of garbage that doesn't inspire me. Thanks Google!
Base 10 isn't so special either, there are some cultures that used/are using base 8, counting the spaces between their fingers instead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octal
Writing from Germany here. At your age of 20, getting a scholarship to study in the US, if your funding is solid, is a chance you should take almost no-matter-where-from IMO. If only for the college / campus life and living some years on a fundamentally culturally-and-otherwise different continent (OK granted, that's in both cases, US and EU).

Although it's unclear whether "joined a startup" means as co-founder, CxO, or some gig, might somewhat matter here.

As for "job experience triumphs college", for 90% of (even IT / dev) jobs that sounds like a ridiculous notion to me (the usually personally-interesting cutting-edge stuff is going to be both outside a job and most undergrad curriculums), regardless of how much edu quality may or may not have gone downhill in recent years. Sure, the big SV founder legends of yesteryear were mostly college drop-outs, but they weren't South Asians with a scholarship either. If their dropping-out had not paid off, they knew they could just return a few years later.

This stuff is so worth it. Even if there isn't much "college/campus life". My 3 years BSc. in the UK was pretty socially "isolated" except for a GF and her friend circle, but it was still totally worth it, slightly exotic and adventurous-feeling (20 years ago by now tho =) and had that college-town vibe I'd never known before, and with the workloads they had for students, I had a LOT of time to my own doings (whether freelancing or totally hobbyist — or in your case maybe, that startup or another, they come and go).

As for that Berlin non-tech startup? What are they even about, that might matter a bit here. There's an endless stream of rose-colored ventures cropping up and folding again all the time in Berlin (and other such "wanna-be startup capital of (insert county/country/continent)" cities), you know. I'd tell them of your unique opportunity and offer to continue remote + part-time for starters. Both are now much more culturally / business-wise acceptable, broadly, than ever before. If that's not good enough for them, split, else you can over time choose to "phase it down" or re-engage more-intensely as you like and time permits.

Also, gloom and doom (cultural-mood-and-zeitgeist-wise) once more proliferate and dominate on this old continent but especially this country currently (unlike say during most of the previous decade), but with that outlook direction Germany or east-of-it is always going to be a little extra-grim as a place-to-live on this continent IMO. I mean, for moving here.. anyone is welcome to, as far as I care, if that's their goal or need, but given the choice, I have a real hard time advertising it vs. countries / cultures like France, Italia, Spain, Portugal, even Britain.. That's a personal subjective bias tho =)
> in the case of sqlite though, the technology is often used as a standalone file format. So it is very tempting to consider the ".sqlite" file to be the one containing all the data, and all the rest to be temporary files that don't matter much.

If you're using it as a standalone file format you presumably shouldn't leave .sqlite files with associated wal files lying around in places where users are going to get confused by them, either by sticking to the rollback journal mode or by using some other method

The main philosophy of XP, as stated by Kent Beck himself, is to take everything good to its extreme (hence the appellation Extreme Programming).

For example, if testing is good, then it must be done to the extreme. Basically this means you will need to have a 100% test coverage to comply to XP.

But history proves that extremism and fanaticism are bad and harmful in every area of life, including in software development. You can, for example, read about the consequences of testing to the extreme here [1]

The issue with the WinRE environment and Bitlocker bypass exploit has been known since at least last year with a January 2023 KB addressing the issue, but the WinRE environment still needed to be updated manually. Looks like 12 months later if you hadn’t already dealt with it, another issue can arise according to this article?

More information on the fix can be found discussed here: https://old.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/10atdqe/is_bitloc...

As in, compiling for FPGAs or running on them? Can't really say anything about compiling-for. I know building Verilog takes forever but I have no idea what it's doing.

For running-on, APL adapts well to most hardware. I mean, we're talking about a paradigm that's existed longer without the concept of GPGPU than with it. I don't know if FPGAs would have an advantage over GPUs, since the bottleneck is often memory bandwidth and from a quick search it seems FPGAs are worse there. But the problem is still implementing compiler passes in APL.
The original Agile Manifesto was very valuable, and really did strike a cord.

The original Manifesto was actually about being "Agile", developers being developers. How to really focus on being the best developer. Moving fast, focused, cutting away un-needed tasks.

I'm continually disappointed that it spawned some giant consulting industry that became an onerous layer on development, a wet blanket.

You should probably start funeral planning anyway if you can’t trust your kid in a vehicle without artificially limiting their speed.

I didn’t use any hyperbole about the fastest car, with highest acceleration, I was merely pointing out that a hard cap at 65mph is (imo) a silly idea as there’s many reasons you would need to accelerate beyond that to get out of an unsafe situation.

I could maybe advocate for a happy medium here, something like a black box given by your insurance company (they already do), insurance premiums for larger, more powerful vehicles being higher (they already are), traffic calming measures, or speed cameras (already exist) and punishments for speeding such as fines, points, bans or additional speed awareness courses (all already exist). If you’ve any additional input here, other than ‘plan a funeral if you don’t limit your kids speed’ then I’d appreciate the discussion as these things clearly don’t fix all the problems that we encounter on the road, but they certainly prevented me from being a dumb ass on the road when I was a teenager, and still manage to.
Strange.

I've been on Linux some 28 years now, and it used to be like that¹. But today? I haven't had a kernel or graphics driver update failing on me for years. Maybe 10+ years? Granted, my Linux is the most boring, hardly-configged Unbuntu LTS. Boring hardware. Boring drivers. Everything optimized to "Just Work" - My machine pays my bills and if I'm down for a day because I fiddled around with some fancy custom trackpad module, or special Bluetooth whatevers, it's costing me actual money.

I'm certainly in my terminal 80% of the time (developing in nvim etc), so can't say much about how much it is needed by someone who doesn't know or use that terminal.

I don't see the issue with inequality in theory. As long as democracy remains robust and free of influence from the wealthy, and the poor continue to increase in wealth in aggregate. In practise I feel that the wealthy have been exerting undue influence in politics. This, however, can be addressed with targeted policies. It doesn't require restructuring society.
> I don't get how wal2 fixes the long-running reader problem though. Maybe they were just referring to the former problem?

Because with a single wal file you can't checkpoint it during a read since said file may change out from under you.

With two wal files, the one you are actively appending to can be treated like in wal1 mode but the one that isn't being appended to is immutable for the time being just like the main database.

This means you can treat the actual db file and the immutable wal file together as one immutable database file with some underlying abstraction. That abstraction then allows you to perform the checkpoint operation since the abstraction can keep all that immutable data accessible in some form or another while reworking the data structure of the db file.

Then once the checkpoint is complete, the abstraction can clear the now redundant immutable wal file, become transparent, and just present the underling single DB file.

And now once the wal file you are actively appending to reaches a sufficient size, you "lock" that one, rendering it immutable, and switch over to appending to the cleared wal file you were previously checkpointing. With this you can now checkpoint again without blocking reads or writes.

Easier to fix is a real win.

Europeans laugh at our cheap 2x4 houses too, but being able to demolish a non-load-bearing wall in two hours and build a different one in a day or two means I can literally reconfigure my house when living situations change -- like the college kid needing a quiet room to study in, or closing off a new bedroom area for the sister-in-law needing to move in for a few months.

If you're running an internal cloud, you can likely absorb that.

I think comes down to a couple of things:

- Small orgs don't have the resources to run internal clouds, nor should they be doing so. This limits the pipeline of available candidates.
- Large orgs promote the wrong people to management, and they make decisions based on their mental model of the world that was developed 20 years ago. They're filled with people who don't understand the difference between cloud and virtualization.
- Large consultancies make more money by throwing raw numbers at the problem rather than smart automation. i.e. it's easier for IBM to bill T&M and a whole project wrapper to patch the server than automate it.
- Finance & HR teams want you to bend to their ways of working rather than the opposite.

Of the rest, you get into many of them are simply in ops because they're less skilled software developers, or they're now being asked to assure security, and that scares them so they try to lock everything down.
That's way higher than my experience.

I had a kernel update break a memory management API that JavaScript engines use about a year ago, and then before that my last kernel induced update breakage was in like 2012 with fglrx.

That broken kernel update also would not have made it into more conservative distros, as the change was rolled back 5 days later.

Meanwhile I have previously experienced the windows issue in this topic in like 2019. The windows 7 installer created even smaller reserved partitions than the windows 10 one (100 Vs 500 mb iirc), so users with systems upgraded from 7 to 10 would have seen this sooner.

And for completeness sake I've also experienced OS X fail at updating to High Sierra as that updater didn't like something about the way my employers provisioning software had set up the partition layout some years earlier.

Yup, these are all niche technologies - some of them (airships) had their time, but today they are all much less common than the alternatives ("regular" airplanes, regular trains, regular ships). Interestingly there is also a parallel between hovercraft and supersonic passenger airplanes: their best-known applications (Concorde and the hoverferry across the English channel) both started in the 1960s, were never really profitable and were discontinued once the original vehicles were getting obsolete in the early 2000s.

Definitely earlier. I used these in 2011 while employed by a major government contractor. We had a stupid in-house system for paperwork submission that only worked on IE6 running on Windows XP. For my team I made an VirtualBox image based on this that could run on our customer-issued MacBook devices. Anytime we needed to submit expenses, just load the WinXP virtual machine.
