There are limits to promotion at any company. Probably no limits from fresh-college-grad to the next level of software engineer (SWE-2 or equivalent). That becomes less true at higher levels. If Bob is a Vice President of Tech, reporting to the CTO, Bob may have no realistic prospect to be promoted to any position other than CTO and if the CTO is successful and not leaving, then Bob has a lack of promotion opportunity. If the CTO keeps working out, most companies would be rationally willing to let Bob leave and replace him if that's Bob's choice (and therefore want to know when he's contemplating that seriously).
You should be bullish on intel, they got so much TSMC and Samsung trade secrets through the chips act that it would be a miracle to mess that up.
I picked up an Ortek ADB keyboard a few months back - clearly an imitation of the AEK-II (but interestingly it seems to have a PBT spacebar - the AEK-II has ABS spacebar but PBT for all the other keys, so by now an AEK-II's spacebar will typically be yellower than its neighbours)

I wired up a similar adapter using a 5v ProMicro, and used the older TMK firmware, which works a treat.

Except once instances block other instances for not going along with their blocks. Then you really cannot talk to anyone from a single idenity. This makes the whole system not much better than a bunch of independent sites.

Then there is the fact that you once you choose an instance your identity is bound to that instance. Why would anyone invest in such a dead end network.
I think JetBrains made a mistake by not including a Windows Forms designer much sooner, that supports 3rd-party controls/components [0] in the Rider IDE. Dealbreaker for me now and for many other companies I've worked for or know of. Unfortunately, we had to choose Visual Studio because of this.

According to their own developer survey, Windows Forms was at 22% in 2023 [1].

WinForms != legacy, because it's very extensible! Microsoft still maintains it (last update was 1 month ago). It is also still one of the flagship products for companies that make 3rd-party controls like DevExpress [2], Telerik, Infragistics, GrapeCity and several others.

Students in academia today will not learn about WPF, WinUI, UWP and whatever else MS' pushing. They learn Windows Forms - in my country and in Europe at least.

Hopefully we'll get to switch over to Rider soon, but it's been 5 years already [3]. Big mistake.

Cool tool. Just used it to get satisfactory results.
Minor typo at the botton: "Propmpt"
You're right. The first iPhone did not have GPS. But it did have the connectivity to make other geolocation services useful, at least in a "Where the fuck am I at?" sense. (And the iPod Touch also had wifi-based geolocation services that were spooky-good, if it was online somehow.)

But from various PalmOS devices to whatever Android device is in my pocket right now, carrying wired headphones has never been a thing for me for whatever reason.

So as a Google Voice user since it was still called GrandCentral, having Google Voice available on a Wifi-connected touchscreen pocket music player called an iPod Touch was simply never very useful to me: The OG iPod Touch was lousy as a telephone, since it lacked all of the basic parts (like a microphone or an earpiece) that made telephones useful, and SMS was not yet in its heyday back then either.

I got much better use of the service with my dumb phone with T9 text input and transcription of voicemails to SMS, and my dumb phone worked anywhere instead of just where I could find a Wifi network.

Jailbroken, the iPod was an amazing pocket computer with a brilliant display, thin profile, and exceptional responsiveness to touch input, especially with third-party apps and improvements installed. It was fun having a real *nix userland installed on it, and it sure seemed novel to SSH from it.

By default, though? Almost useless except as a music player -- a task that previous iPods did better.

(I mostly used my OG iPod Touch to take offline notes. It did OK at this, but previously-used PalmOS devices did better in terms of input speed and portability of those notes.

Even relatively high-end aftermarket car stereos at the time were afraid of it: "Oh, why sure I can play music with your iPod!

Except.. is that an iPod Touch?"

"shun shun shun")

Yes, absolutely.

Also, as a pet peeve: always read your input from stdin, and if stdin isn't readable, do not assume that if stdout/stderr is a tty you're allowed to use that for input. (This assumption is broken in batch/CI/etc systems where stdout/stderr may be a tty so that a program emits color/etc, while making stdin /dev/null because there's no user interaction possible.)

The amount of RF energy absorbed by your body from satellites 400km away is really negligible compared to that phone in your pocket. If you worry about RF exposure, worry about the transmitter that everyone carries with them all the time now.

> I really want alternatives to TypeScript for developing webapps which aren't super "bulky"

I hear you, but what do you expect Dart's contribution as a language/technology to be in this space, effectively? While syntactically comparable, TypeScript is a better typed JavaScript than Dart will probably ever be (in terms of leveraging a type system to enable more complex/maintainable apps and libraries). And since every programming language compiles to JavaScript these days, you've got some compelling options if you really want to depart from JS altogether (with http://www.scala-js.org/ an amazing one, for which I find the mix of Functional + Object Orientation to lend itself very well to the web).

In all, I really fail to see a good reason for Dart to exist nowadays (and surviving as "Flutter's best language buddy" isn't a great one).

If they could export to the US without penalties, I'd expect the prices to be even lower due to economies of scale in a much larger market.

The UN has a number of programs which cost money; even just the maintenance of the building and staff costs money. There is a formula they use to "harmonize" contributions by population, gdp etc.

From the documents, it looks like Tuvalu contributes $ 2,500 p/y to the Working Capital Fund (i.e. reserves) and about $ 40,000 p/y to the regular budget (which is periodically modified and approved depending on needs of the various programs, and collected yearly from member countries, with unspent leftovers returned to them).

If these look like paltry sums, it's because they are. No wonder the Gates Foundation is squarely in the top-20 UN donors.

For comparison, some of the biggest contributors are the US (55m to Working Capital Fund, 750m to yearly budget), China (38m and 500m) and Japan (20m and 220m), although the highest per-capita contributions amoung sizeable countries are Norway and Sweden.
On this particular issue Firefox-on-windows is unlikely to be a solution. If they can and are doing it to Chrome on Windows they can to Firefox too. It might be more work as Edge doesn't share a codebase with Firefox like it does with Chrome, but unless FF is somehow encrypting everything in a way that blocks MS⁰ it won't be particularly difficult.

> The point is to either host your own instance, or use the instance of someone you trust and/or whose moderation policy you align with.

This should be the goal but will never happen with an activity-pub-based fediverse. It just doesn't scale to everyone or even every small group having their own instances because. Current fediverse software is also too complicated and too resource hungry for even most technically inclined people to self host.

You really need a better foundation that is designed for efficient communication between millions of hosts from the start.
Multiple AI models in single chat
We're building a tool to join different AI models in a single chat interface. For now, we have multiple LLM models and image generation models.

The different problems could be solved here. For now, we're focusing on content creation/marketing and the problem, of people getting used to content, created by popular models and skipping it. And with our tool, you can create a content with one model, than rewrite it using another one.

We're looking for our early adopters, feedback, and happy to have user interviews.

I'd love to have a standard command-line tool for "run the following program with its output set to a pty, and then pipe the output to stdout". That's the most reliable way to get programs to display color and similar.

Any tool whose output is ever parsed, including "parsing" as simple as "tool | grep xyz", shouldn't emit terminal escapes to a pipe by default. If `xyz` has an embedded color sequence in it, that grep will fail. Or worse, produce unexpected results. (The standard color sequences end in `m`; a grep for 'msomething' could match 'something' preceded by a color sequence.)
I think one of the core arguments for larger organisations is that incompetence can not ruin everything.

Firebase is a good case study for this: They heavily argue using Firestore and server less functions. If you succeed solving your problems using their offerings, then they will also guarantee that things run well and scale well.

Firestore, as when I used it last, did not support all the operations that can make traditional DBMS go in their knees. You have document level isolation, ie. no joins or aggregating functions (like count or sum across documents). These functions need to be implemented in another way using aggregators or indices.

So I agree that development is more fun when developing on proper runtimes using fully fledged databases. But when you manage several thousands of developers on all levels, then I think it makes sense to impose another architecture.

>Without loss of generality, take the case of just one red ball, rest are green. If you pick the one red ball on your first draw the chances are now 100% that the next ball is green (since there aren't any red ones left) whereas before you had picked the red one you had just a 99% chance of picking a green one.

Your reasoning can conclude that picking a green ball next time is more likely for any specific bag contents. But you can't then conclude that picking a green ball the next time is more likely, period. Picking red the first time gives you information that changes the probability distribution of likely bag contents.

Lots of confounders there. MacOS is probably a lot more power optimized than Windows, given the shared iOS codebase, and OS quality can impact battery life hugely (useless wakeups, etc).
Greetings

Unfortunately my probability skills are quite bad and i easily get confused, could someone explain where my reasoning fails?

I assumed since we have a uniform distribution of red to green balls, then the expected value would be 50 red balls.

So I assumed I can use this expected distribution to figure out the probability the question asked

in an urn where there is 50 red balls and 50 green balls, and we draw one red ball. The ball we draw next is more likely to be green (since we have 49 red balls vs 50 green balls)

Is my mistake that I took the expected value of the uniform distribution before the first ball was drawn? And I should think of the expected distribution of the urn given the first ball drawn was red? If so how would I go about that probabilistically? (i.e. how would I calculate

Exp [ n given first ball is red ]
)

I can see that if the first ball was red, this removes one of the possible values (all balls are green)

And I can see how from all possible urns, the more they have red balls, the higher the likelihood the first ball drawn is red. I would assume this will skew the expected value somehow.

Is it like

```
expVal = 0

for all possible n (101 possible values):
# possibility of first ball being red when we have n red balls * n * probability of n?

expVal += (n / 100) \* n \* (1/101)

```

I'm sure the above is wrong, because this will just decrease the expected value where I am expecting an increase but I'm not sure how to model it

I would appreciate any pointers/help

My wife is a doctor, most of of our friends have at least one, often both as doctors. Most of them are living healthily, but that may be also due to location - Geneva, Switzerland which has strong French influence. Meaning good high quality food is default, portions smaller than US, tons of physical exercise is a default here, we have beautiful nature and mountains at our doorsteps so that helps. My banking IT colleagues fall into exactly same category.

But then there are the rest, which have various issues like eating crap, overweight, no sports etc. Yet they know fully darn well where it leads to. Either they make some mental bypass like smokers 'it won't happen to me', or they are at peace and enjoy themselves.

Proper knowledge of consequences is not enough to persuade everybody, regardless of their IQ. Also, even healthily folks that are say anxious go sometimes on regretful binging spree when things get tougher.

I have a suggestion that would make this very valuable for anyone starting in the field (part of which you already have implemented, great!):

Provide various templates for both pre-instructions as well as post-processing prompts. Like, some "tested" prompts that ensure (as best as possible) that the output is in certain formats (JSON, a list, a restricted CSV set, etc.), or that the input will ensure (as best as possible at least) to prevent basic jailbreaks from the main prompt.

It would take me a long time to get up to speed to what people working with ChatGPT every day have already figured out to work best in warming up GPT with a prompt as well as ensuring that the output doesn't escalate into something unexpected. Having those (reliable) templates would be fantastic for anyone starting!

2. Is an onerous burden on the entire population. We had enough issues with Digital TV.
