From the LTT review (note that Linus has personally invested in the company, but says he did not review the team's script) at timestamp[0]:

> The keyboard on the Framework 16 is unacceptable at this price [...] wasn't able to get up to my full typing speed in particular while doing really quick double presses due to the chassis flex, a huge disappointment compared to the keyboard on the Framework 13

> The problem is the midplate [..] with the keyboard off, you can just see how not supportive this super thin piece of metal is. Fortunately, this being a framework, disassembling only takes about a minute and we were able to chuck some thermal pads in the areas where it was squishiest, and.. holy crap, that is so much better.

> The amount that the chassis flex influences the feel of the keyboard is huge and the difference that this mod has made is night and day. With the thermal pads in there, this keyboard isn't quite on the same level of Asus or Alienware but comfortably beats MSI and Razor and bring it much more in-line with the price.

>Earlier pieces having a knitted or crocheted appearance have been shown to be made with other techniques, such as Nålebinding, a technique of making fabric by creating multiple loops with a single needle and thread, much like sewing.[4] Some artefacts have a structure so similar to knitting, for example, 3rd-5th century CE Romano-Egyptian toe-socks, that it is thought the "Coptic stitch" of nalbinding is the forerunner to knitting.

Ask HN: Why does Steam go down every Tuesday?
As most gamers will know, Steam cloud services routinely go down every Tuesday for maintenance, meaning any games that use Steam matchmaking stop working.

My question is: why? In this day and age we have ways of maintaining services with zero downtime using A/B deployments for example. Even running services that can't be load balanced at layer 7 can be gradually drained so as to not interrupt connections.

Any Valve employees who can shed light on this?

I've been living in Montreal now for the last couple of years and have struggled to find people to practice speaking French with, so I created a web app to talk with an AI to improve my conversational skills [1]. I launched a few months ago and am seeing a little bit under $500/month in revenue so far.

I initially started by offering the service for free, but it eventually became too expensive to handle by myself. I then decided to switch to a paid and free tier and by that point I had amassed enough of a user base that a decent handful signed up to the paid tier. I optimized for user growth > revenue in the beginning because I kept thinking, "if people are not going to use this for free then they surely are not going to pay for it".

No, it's very clearly level 4.

Here's how you can tell so that you don't get confused as easily in future. Level 3 cars can require the occupant to drive the vehicle, "When the feature requests: You must drive the car". Waymo even offers service to people who cannot drive whether that's legally (they aren't licensed) or physically (blind people can use Waymo but can't drive a car). They are simply not required to take over driving.

Yes, this makes it very difficult to apply ML and RL in non-simulated scenarios.

With simulated scenarios you can just replay and "sweep" across hyperparameters to find the best one.

In a realworld scenario with limited information, fine tuning hyperparameters is much harder as you quickly find yourself in local maxima.
> "This isn't default bad. Do you build everything at your company, or buy some things? Specialization can be a boon."

You seem to be under the impression I'm arguing a point that isn't in the text of my post. It's not material whether this is "default bad" - what matters is that it was bad in this specific instance.

The claim isn't "all outsourcing bad", the claim is a very specific "Boeing's outsourcing of these specific parts directly led to the safety crisis the company is facing now".

This is particularly salient as pre-divestment, what is now Spirit, did not have a notable QC problem. Boeing has in the past faced safety crises over the design of its aircraft, but not their manufacture.

Not everything is a proxy argument. If I mean my argument to be generalizable, I will state it clearly rather than leave it up to others to impute.
Solutions abound, but one option is to use either Javascript (config.js):

// comments!
({
no_quotes: [1, 2, (() => /* code! */)()],
...
})

Or, let the whole thing be a function. Then your config can have parameters, maybe mapped from environment variables or something.

({foo, bar, ...kwargs}) => ({
datacenter: foo === 'old' ? 'useast1' : 'uswest',
...
})

Can do as Crockford says, and write in the JSON subset of Javascript, but with comments, and convert it to JSON by running it through a JS minifier. I think you need parens around the object, though, or else it looks like a code block (boooo...):

({
// This is very much like JSON
"foo": [1, 2, "bar"]
})

Python also has JSON-like syntax, so you could use config.py:

{
'foo': [1, 2, 'bar']
}

That would require a wrapper script. Or, you can have the self-contained convention:

import json
import sys

# Yay, comments!
json.dump({
# more comments!
'foo': [1, 2, 'bar']
}, sys.stdout)
> You're really missing the point.

I got your point. I think it is you who is missing mine:

> You're really missing the point. Logo was super simple and we learned it in elementary school as children

You wouldn't have learned conditionals and other such things though. That stuff wasn't as easy to learn in LOGO because LOGO is basically a LISP. eg

IFELSE :num = 1 [print [Number is 1]] [print [Number is 0]]

vs

if { $num == 1 } then { print "number is 1" } else { print "number is 0" }

or

if num == 1:
print "number is 1"
else:
print "number is 0"

I'm not saying these modern languages don't have their baggage. But LOGO wasn't exactly a walk in the park for anything outside of it's main domain either. Your memory of LOGO here is rose tinted.

> And those other languages have accreted way too many features to be simple enough.

I agree (though less so with Lua) but you don't need to use those features. Sure, my preference would be "less is more" and thus my personal opinion of modern Python isn't particularly high. And Perl is rather old fashioned these days (though I think modern Perl gets more criticism than it deserves). But the fact is we don't need to reinvent the wheel here. Visual Basic could make raw DLL calls meaning you had unfettered access to Win32 APIs (et al) but that doesn't mean every VBScript out there was making DLL calls left right and centre. Heck, if you really want to distil things down then there's nothing even stopping someone implementing a "PythonScript" type language which is a subset of Python.

I just don't buy "simplicity of the language" as the reason languages aren't often embedded these days. I think it's the opposite problem: "simplicity of the implementation". It's far easier to load a JSON or YAML document into a C(++|#|Objective|whatever) struct than it is it to add API hooks for an embedded scripting language. And that's precisely why software written in dynamic languages do often expose their language runtime for configuration. Eg Ruby in Puppet and Chef, half of PHP applications having config written in PHP, XMPP servers written in Haskell, etc. In those kinds of languages, it is easy to read config from source files (sometimes even importing via `eval`) so there often isn't any need to stick config in JSON documents.

i'd venture a guess that they were given up on since they couldn't be styled like all native elements. also, check boxes remove one from whatever design the UI is meant to have. if you're recreating the look/feel of a control panel with buttons/knobs/sliders, check boxes are not something you would find. a flip/toggle switch or push button is common for 1/0 binary type options. a knob or fader allows for values between 0-1. you just don't see too many check boxes out in the wild.

The usual technique is to keep a 4-element array of sums (so sum[j] is the sum of all terms of the form a[4*i + j] * b[4*i + j]), and then take the total at the very end. This allows for the use of vectorization even with strict IEEE-compliance.

Generally, I would recommend against -ffast-math mostly because it enables -ffinite-math-only and that one can really blow up in your face. Most other flags (like -funsafe-math-operations) aren't that bad from an accuracy standpoint. Obviously you should not turn them on for code that you have actually tuned to minimize error, but in other cases they barely ever degrade the results.
> you should have the know how to handroll a couple lines of ASM

For what architecture? What if this code is in a library that your users might want to run on Intel (both 32 and 64 bit), ARM, Risc V and s390x? Even if you learn assembly for all of these, how are you going to get access to an S390X IBM mainframe to test your code? What if a new architecture[1] gets popular in the next couple of years, and you won't have access to a CPU to test on?

Leaving this work to a compiler or architecture-independent functions / macros that use intrinsics under the hood frees you from having to think about all of that. As long as whatever the user is running on has decent compiler support, your code is going to work and be fast, even years later.

> I feel like the people who calculate that it's more cost effective to deal with the hit from a security breach vs spending money on good security have won.

They do win, unfortunately because they're right. Why spend much on designing security when the inevitable breach costs nothing other than bad press for a few days and then all is forgotten.

The only possible solution is to have significant fines for every data item breached.

Ideally I'd ratchet up the fines for each occurrence. First breach should hurt the company financially a bit but not be too disruptive, offering a learning opportunity.

Subsequent breaches the fines go up, by the fifth breach or so the fines would wipe away the company entirely, since they clearly didn't learn.

Anything short of something like this, companies will never care and leak all your data to the wind every year.

Worth noticing - most of the decisions in the world are made without statistics gathered by independent auditors, but by using the information and experience that’s available.

Just remember, this flaw was on the one model right at the start of the company. Recalling the boards at that point (where the company probably wasn't making a profit yet) could have killed the company. Definitely not worth doing.

But short of a total recall, they did the next best thing. They released detailed instructions on how to repair a laptop while having the schematics for the laptop be open, and going out of their way to design the laptop in such a way to make repair as easy as possible, and said that self repairs would not affect any warrantees.

No other laptop manufacturer would have done that.
