What I would like to be explained is who is lending them the money.

In the article, they went bankrupt with 7 billion in debt. Someone isn't getting that money back. Whoever gave them the money evidently gave it to them unsecured as well, as the PE company ran off with the buildings. Lender gave some very generous terms here evidently.

Definitely think this sort of idea could become the "serverless" equivalent for ml-using apps. I'm curious what you think re: versioning, consumption from various client languages, observability/monitoring/queueing, etc.? Feels like it could grow into a meaningful platform.
Big tech moves like crypto. This stock market volatility is absolutely insane. I wonder if we ever go back to pre-covid times when the market didn't run up and crash every 3 months.
I might be in the minority, but parent's comment is probably about people like me: most of my coworkers have context free, or at best succinct commit messages. I never read more than the first line listed in the commit list, and don't even assume the description is always accurate.

Instead I'll spend my time stalking the related merge request, where the full description of the whole change resides, with probably a link to the ticket or reference documentation, and all the back and forth on why something is or isn't a good idea.

I think the world could be a better place if all of that was in git directly, but that's also utting much more burden on an already complex tool.
> it's hard to see what the crypto community is so in love with here

It is easy to see what the crypto community is so in love here.

They provide a way for traders, globally, to sit in "dollars", they bought up a whole bunch of bitcoin for what is now super cheap (and they are a large holder) [0], and are now reaping in the profits from that and their US bonds. The longer that rates stay high, the more money they make.

[0] https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/01/18/tether-purchased...
Very simply? If the conspiracy theories about their scamminess were wrong and they did what they said which was hold dollars without duration exposure (mostly cash and tbills). Then once rates got hiked they were basically the only bank equivalent in the world with captive depositors that couldn’t just take their money to competitors and they were able to keep all the interest (4-5 bn per year currently). Which incidentally they’re now using in part to load up (substantially) on btc with house money.

I don’t know what the truth is obviously for sure but this story is extremely possible and plausible. It doesn’t mean they were particularly good traders. It means if true basically they were disciplined and didn’t trade at all and are now benefitting from massive upside on their set up resulting from monetary policy and regulatory conditions driving their popularity.
It certainly is challenging, but there are a lot of statistical methods to gain confidence in those estimates.

E.g; Heat-related mortality in Europe during the summer of 2022 - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-023-02419-z

They looked at the 2022 outlier year in terms of heat across Europe, and then found strong correlations with the hottest weeks in the hottest locations in terms of heat-related deaths from the trends established over the prior 5 years. Seems pretty robust and they did a number of tests to ensure it was a reliable result.

And as usual, you come in with ad hominems. Nice to see some things never change. [edit](Ah, I see you stealthily removed them. I maintain the people who have to resort to calling names are usually in the weakest position - although I do enjoy yelling at clouds from time to time).

Long-dated bonds go down in price when interest rates go up, as our friends at SVB learned. So the bonds they claimed to have years ago should be significantly under face value on their books. Unless they're the world's greatest hammock-based trading team.

The question is why wouldn't the crypto community embrace USDC over USDT where they have actual, verified deposits, and a redemption process? And why is it always so much to ask for an audit?

You know if they produced an audit from an actual auditor who didn't run away from them (like last time) I'd believe them, right?
> we redirected the efforts of a large part of the Cloudflare technical staff (inside and outside the security team) to work on a single project dubbed “Code Red”.

Code red is a standard term in emergency response that means smoke/fire. In general, in order to “redirect” that much effort one must do some paperwork to prove the urgency and immediacy of the threat.

The MO screams China to me but I wouldn’t read anything into the name “code red” which would have been selected before they identified the specific threat actor anyway.

lazyvim is definitely the one I found easiest of a bunch of these. I've been using it for a while now, I haven't tried in neovide though, I just did and it ran but when I did an update there was a compilation error (on mac). So maybe avoid an update there? :) It was easy to fix in standard iterm2 though (just resync).
Not probably. Most definitely. The longer the rates stay high, the better they do. Even if rates drop, it is pretty much too late at this point... they've taken all the printed money.

A rebase to clean up your branch is great, and I lean on my team to do this. Unfortunately it's impossible to automate, because it amounts to craftsmanship. I've seen larger teams fall back to squash-merging, which at least discards checkpoint/broken/WIP commits. But it loses the nuance of more complex changes performed in logical stages.

> because deeply inside you really are

Only, I'm not offended by this, because I understand that I have absorbed racist biases from my environs (not according to some hifalutin theory -- I've witnessed my own failures in this regard). Such is the human condition. You're the one getting your underwear tangled over that "accusation."
With HiDPI/Retina displays, that 24px is actually 48px or 72px, so the need for pixel hinting is much less commonplace than it was 10 or 15 years ago.

Also, nothing's really stopping most developers from just scaling it naively to those tiny sizes, in fact it's what commonly happens.

I agree we should keep support for custom icons for each size, and it's probably a best practice, but shouldn't be a _requirement_ anymore.
> We need to remember that scientific research and technological innovations are not disembodied and “neutral”, but subject to cultural influences. As fully human activities, the directions they take reflect choices conditioned by personal, social and cultural values in any given age. The same must be said of the results they produce: precisely as the fruit of specifically human ways of approaching the world around us, the latter always have an ethical dimension, closely linked to decisions made by those who design their experimentation and direct their production towards particular objectives.

I wish every AI hype guy yelling "luddite" at the top of their lungs whenever they encounter resistance could simply understand this utterly true point. People have become so confused by what is essentially just accumulated marketing, they don't even have a consistent or rational idea of what something like progress actually is, or perhaps at least, what it could be. SV ideology has created a culture existentially committed to what amounts to an empty signifier: "progress" becomes simply whatever the economic winners happened to do, something defined after the fact.

Everyone wants to believe history is simply climbing this one big mountain, and we simply need to keep up and go forward. But perhaps we are just in the ocean, holding on to whatever planks and buoys we can, hoping we can weather the storms we might see on the horizon.

You say lowered, I say writing in such a way that communicates what the author actually intends to communicate. If what you're trying to say doesn't land among your intended audience that's a you problem.

Having read the book and seen the movie adaptation I have to disagree. Alex is charismatic, popular, a feared leader, independent, and rebellious. The brutal rape scene while singing makes him look like an absolute badass (a la the Joker) existing well beyond the reach of society's rules and importantly, makes him look powerful. Ultraviolence sounds like an achievement in DOOM. When he's caught it's framed as a betrayal not "we finally got the bad guy." Then they make him sympathetic through the torture and weakening him and making him unable to defend himself to the point of being driven to suicide. It's harrowing, not the cathartic comeuppance of a terrible man. And then the police apologize, let him go and arrest the man he brutally beat to near death.

The narrative considers Alex to be horrible but the view as seen by the camera/reader thinks he's hot shit and a tragic victim of a dystopian society.

As another example, when you watch Dexter you're rooting for Dexter and the show makes him cool despite him ya know being a killer.

In a lot of ways I think it's actually a hallmark of media literacy that readers/viewers largely ignore the narrative as a source of moral judgment because it's fiction and we like compelling villains and instead finds it in how the characters are actually portrayed.

The fees on this kind of debt are incredibly high, and banks are kind of desperate right now for higher interest loans.

I think banks kind of have a "fool me twice, shame on me" attitude when it comes to bad loans - if they are adjusting the fees accordingly for the risk they should (theoretically) be fine on average in the long run.
Halide v17.0.0
I am generally on the same opinion as you are. I dislike superfluous comments and documentation. In fact, I usually try not to read these as these can be deceiving.

But this is one of the few cases where I think comments are worthwhile. That is, as an out-of-band channel where you explain things that are not in the code base, that is not common knowledge to skilled programmers, and that is hard to express in other ways.

This is a simplified example, normally, one would say more than that. Something like "for historical reasons, the backend is configured with a size limit of 1024, larger messages may be dropped". This value may be the result of a conversation with someone from the backend team, and without this comment, a newcomer will have absolutely no idea about the why, even if his is a programming god. And there is no easy way to express that in code. "MAX_SUPPORTED_SIZE" without any context may be insufficient, as it may raise questions about why this limitation even though the software used for the backend shouldn't have this limit.

I don't think the value of comments is only on the trickiness of the code. Some code like bit twiddling hacks may be tricky, but these are the kind of things good programmers should know, or if they don't, learn. There are publicly available resources for that. But parts, even simple parts, that require domain knowledge, or worse, knowing specific people in the company definitely benefit from comments if code can't express it.
My bad. Sarcasm doesn't always land.
What's the realistic threat model here? Someone hacks your company and during their exploitation window they're going to focus on... keylogging/MITMing random devs (likely far more paranoid/observant than the average computer user) so that they can get access to their personal machines via some artisan crafted attack to maybe make a fraudulent transfer from one person's bank account? In what world is that a low-hanging fruit to go after?

The reason N5 came together for TSMC is because they run more experiments per unit time than Intel does. They're doing this 24 hours a day across multiple shifts, which makes it possible for them to improve a given process faster.
