I am so so glad you all started this conversation here. You have no idea how important is is as to what you have stumbled on. I truly hope that once I post here, that both Ahuhz and Laweijfmvo will see my comment.

Not only does this deal make ZERO sense for a variety of reasons, an even bigger problem is that media outlets are not even asking the questions, or prodding in any way. This is one of the biggest media contracts ever, and there is no scrutiny.

1. Rogan's previous contract was reported at $100 million, new one is $250 million. So Spotify pays 2.5 more with no exclusivity? What? Not only will they not gain subscribers, they will lose them. If anyone has both Youtube Premium and Spotify Premium, and were only paying for Spotify Premium to get JRE with offline adds, they are going to drop Spotify Premium as it will literally serve them no purpose whatsoever. For anyone wanting to watch on video, they will all be on Youtube. It's a vastly superior video platform.

With all that said, how in the heck could Spotify ever make the math work on this deal?

2. Why are only Apple, Amazon Prime and Youtube now getting full episodes of JRE? If Spotify is losing exclusivity, why would it only be to 3 other platforms? Are these platforms paying to gain access?

Again, without more context and detail, none of this can be explained. These are all obvious questions, and people should be wondering why they haven't been asked yet.

There's only one scenario where it makes sense to me personally, which is that JRE is a platform for propaganda, that the big tech platforms are intertwined with the government as many think, and that the exposure problem was big for JRE. In other words, having the show be exclusive to Spotify was reducing it's exposure as a propaganda outlet too much, as maybe not as many people made the switch when JRE went exclusive as was thought.
Nuclear thermal or pulse, fission or fusion, aren't enough for interstellar relativistic speeds. They have way too low specific impulse. They don't even have enough for constant acceleration inside the solar system unless the acceleration is really low or the fuel ratio is huge.
I get losing your PRs and comments, and pipelines. But if you get banned from Github, can't you just pick different remote and keep rolling?

If it's about the PRs and comments, and pipelines, then those are features specific to Github so where is the fault for acting unhealthy?
Git is already decentralized. So no, we don't need a fediverse equivalent. Crazy idea, but what if you hosted your code on your infrastructure, like the "old days"? Or, move to an independent forge, or stay where you are. The concern isn't about GitHub directly, but that everyone storing all their source code in one place is concerning.

Git is flexible. I'm kind of surprised at how ubiquitous GitHub is given how easy it is to host your own repositories and set up a mailing list to accept patches and discussion on.
I was thinking about this recently. What does "truly decentralized" Github look like? In particular, I'm curious about decentralized code review and so on. Probably not technically difficult or mind-blowing, but I'm curious nevertheless.
Isn't there independent data about accidents or deaths per driven mile per vehicle brand/type? I don't think Tesla is over-represented there? Even in that data there can be confounders... I would look at those vs. rumours about quality control.

But hey, I rode a motorcycle for ~25 years which is definitely riskier than a Tesla.

Being careful as a pedestrian makes perfect sense. I got these things drilled into me as a kid, because when we were kids we walked everywhere.
> I chose to limit it to airlines operating in the U.S. due to our generally higher expectations around maintenance, pilot training, and workload, amongst other things.

The high-quality training that resulted in a pilot being unable to discern the correct runway to use?

Your line of argument here and elsewhere in this thread is nonsense, especially because the very US authorities you're lauding disagree with you.

If the foreign operations of Boeing aircraft weren't relevant to their safety everywhere, then the FAA wouldn't have grounded the MAX worldwide due to crashes that happened in Indonesia and Ethiopia.
I think it's both in a sort of chicken and egg sort of situation. The MD execs taking over Boeing had a terrible effect on safety culture, but the reason the MD execs took over in the first place was because of this shift in the market that you describe.

If the pre-MD Boeing management had managed to retain control of the company things may have been ok from a quality and safety perspective... but the stock would have declined because they would have refused to chase short-term quarterly success at the expense of the long term.

The most interesting thing here is the open-source bio startup aspect. This is a bold step, and I hope it prompts more startups to go this direction.

They are clearly at the early stage of tech dev. And the reward of $200k for the polymerase to allow longer reads seems pretty low to me... unless you're a grad student and the university doenst take your IP...

Honestly it's pretty hard to get lab access without somebody also getting rights to your IP, and labs are a bit more expensive than setting up an H100, so it might be tough going.

Even if no external party solves their polymerase problem I have a good feeling about this direction though. Godspeed.
Easy solution to this: don’t use github for primary repositories.
"I do however see value in small simple software."

Years ago on HN, I had commenters attack statements I made about the value of small, simple software. They literally challenged the terms "small" and "simple". After that I started prefacing these words with "relatively".

"When evaluating software utility..."

Another time, an HN commenter attacked a statement I made about how I evaluate software for myself. He suggested something to the effect that end users were incapable of evaluating software.

Because in most places cops are liars beyond what you'd ever believe.

Civil rights violations are simply status quo. I come from a family with members in law enforcement and the criminal justice system. They have had to kick detectives out of interrogation rooms because the detectives get abusive and simply ignore "I'd like to speak to my attorney". The cops just won't stop harassing, lying, and even abusing the suspect.

Most people are not going to do well in a stressful situation with a person in a position of authority abusing them. And our criminal justice system here in the US is ok with that.
To be fair, this is an inevitable consequence of using distributed revision control.
GP means has our understanding and perspective of how programming was done in 1969 changed in the last half decade, or do we pretty much believe the same things about it.

Vindication for Alan Turing and the computational analysis done for the Apollo Program have certainly reached a wider audience in the last ten years. They have certainly changed substantially since 2000 for the general public.

Centralization is just too convenient for most people. Most people - technical or otherwise - won't accept the slightest quality-of-life (edit: and network size/activity) hit in exchange for the greater robustness of decentralized options, regardless of the application.

Note how the vast majority of people who use or interact with cryptocurrencies converge around a few centralized options. Even a ton of the technical people who develop cryptocurrency-related systems do.

Disagree. BLM caused the politicians to throw the police under the bus before it was determined if they were actually in the wrong or not. Of course the police are going to be more interested in avoiding possible incidents and less interested in going after trouble.

BLM got what it "wanted"--there's a definite drop in police shootings where they were active. But it was a cat's paw result: The increase in criminal black deaths was far greater than the decrease in police black deaths.
Oh, certainly, there's nothing to prove it was the green tea. We did rule out any other cause of liver failure we possibly could, but there's nothing to say we didn't miss something. But green tea in high doses IS a known cause of liver failure (admittedly, not known to us at the time, but there's case studies on pubmed I found once I started searching), so it remained the most likely cause after eliminating anything else plausible apart from the good old doctor standby of "sometimes shit just happens, shrug emoji" also known as "idiopathic."
If you don't need to collaborate with people sure it does. Everything works well until you need to collaborate.

Because no one that matters cares about a company that makes $10 million per year, neither the cofounders nor the board. Everyone wants 100x that because they want to become 9 figure wealthy or more. Better to close down, fuck the customers, and then have the cofounders start a new "journey" in hopes of getting that unicorn status and become fabulously wealthy.

Which has about zero to do with actual reality.

The reality in the US is if you want re-elected you better be tough on crime, which means people going to jail. No one seems to give a shit if the people that committed the crime are going to jail, as long as someone is found guilty.
Exactly. If ordered to do so, a good engineer will be better at cutting costs to the bone than the greatest MBA.

I'm specifically referring to the "problem" of developers who were getting paid $500-750k+ who may have to settle for a mere $200k working at a non-FAANG company.

For non-development roles, getting laid off sucks, there's no way around that. but they can hopefully find a comparable salary at a different company.
What I find interesting about that spectrum is that it's also suggested by the tension between character and plot. It's extremely difficult to make both equally important. It's much easier to either sketch out the character motivations and then see what kind of plot happens to them, or, to sketch out the plot and then see what kind of characters that would suggest. But to do both at once is a real challenge.

It's also similar to songwriting in that sense. If you want to write a really good song, do you write lyrics first or music first? Generally speaking, if you pick one or the other, you'll find that one "serves" the other. Writing both at once, though... that's really hard.
LLMs have been game changing productivity-wise for me

But I found that LLMs are often wrong and hallucinates, so I have to double check with google or other resources.

So I built a google and chatgpt alternative to answer any question and hallucinations are more obvious. I do this by using by multiple LLM's including search enabled ones i.e. GPT4, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Mistral, and Llama.

>Moving off github is a good idea anyway, since they took away source code search for non-signed-in-users. I experience that annoyance every time I need to find the source of an error string in someone's github project.

It could be done in part for cynical registration metrics reasons, but I'm guessing search is probably costly and this helps reduce automated activity. I also imagine they might face issues with bots searching for certain patterns to identify vulnerabilities and leaked credentials. Why is it unacceptable for you to register an account to make your debugging process easier?

I can't reply to pests directly due to thread depth limit, but:

Bessica Raiche built her own airplane out of piano strings and silk when she read about the Wright Brother's flight. She was the first American woman to fly solo. She is worth remembering for many reasons, the flying just makes her relevant to this discussion.

I think Bessica Raiche is a worthy person for young women to hear about. Frankly she is a worthy person for young men to hear about too, she inspires me. If you are ever in a position where you need to be to keep at something, I think remembering that a person built an airplane out of wire and bamboo poles and then flew it solo, crashed, and kept at it is hard to beat. If she did it today it would be remarkable, but she did it in 1910 when it was completely unreasonable to try. She was competent in multiple fields and a renaissance woman. She was able to achieve remarkable things, and more mundane things that were still remarkable given the time she lived.

"On October 13, 1910, Raiche was awarded a diamond-studded gold medal inscribed "First Woman Aviator in America" by Hudson Maxim of the Aeronautical Society of America".

"Bessica was a physician, one of the first women specialists in obstetrics and gynecology in the United States"

"Bessica served as president of the Orange County Medical Association"

Have you ever heard of her before? Her Wikipedia page is less than 1 page long and only has one section. Earhart's Wikipedia page is 64 pages long.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bessie_Raiche

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amelia_Earhart

If you want to be remembered, it's better to be rich and connected than a remarkable and competent person.

I'm sick of Amelia Earhart, the rich poser who got herself killed through what is credibly believed to be willful negligence and incompetence with her own equipment (the negligence and incompetence with her equipment is well documented, we just don't know if that is what killed her because she was so far off course that she was never found). It's ironic that if she had been a better navigator it's likely that she would have a worse reputation, because she might have wrecked closer to where she was supposed to have been and they could have figured out what happened.
Hmm... Is China betting on RISC-V chips? China is too big to rely solely on a single chip architecture. I saw another attempt to develop a new chip architecture in China, called Loongson64.
In recent years, I've seen a lot of contributions to libraries/software, such as the Linux Kernel, Chromium, LLVM, V8, and ffmpeg, by Loongson, a Chinese chip company that produces an architecture called Loongson64.
Apparently, China wants to develop its own chip architecture, chip design, and chip manufacturing capabilities, and RISC-V is one of the options, but there isn't a single path to achieving that.
Issue/discussion portability is much harder than code/history portability, I think is a deeper issue.
Duly noted that a person on the opposite end of a debate disagrees with my position.
Self hosting is painful and not a real solution for most people. Mailing list also have terrible UX. I'd rather risk Github nuking all of my 50 or so repos than work over a mailing list.

This was a good reminder for me to request an export of my Github account.

I have no intention of leaving and don't expect any issues myself, but it made me realize I have a lot of stuff there that I don't have local backups of anymore.
Yeah, this sort of thing is as old as politics itself. It's still worth pointing out the BS whenever it pops up, though.
There are actually two steps to the design process:

- First, requirements. In ato, you define how your circuit is connected and the requirements for the components that sit within it. From there, we generate a netlist and a BOM.

- Second, the netlist is turned into an actual object during the layout operation. We use KiCAD's layout tool in our case. There are infinitely more dimensions in the real world than there are instructions in a computer. So we do need that second step to point the requirement to one implementation in the real world. But technically there could be a quasi infinite implementations that fit the requirements written in ato.

The manufacturing files are a combination of the ato output files, like the BOM and the KiCAD output files, like the gerbers.
Avoiding register spills in vectorized code with many constants
> But if you get banned from Github, can't you just pick different remote and keep rolling?

If you have a local copy. I imagine that if you have 1800+ repositories on Github, there'd be at least a few you probably didn't have installed anymore, because you knew you could always get them back from Github.
I really wish gitea offered a paid plan for individual users so that there was a good alternative to Github available for personal private git hosting without having to self host.
So glibc's qsort doesn't sort arrays of items when fed nonsense input? No kidding. Of course it won't. But reading off the end of the array is concerning.

At a higher level, who's misusing qsort in this way? I'd say PBCAK.
This is why I never use any OAuth/SAML authentication from places like Google, Microsoft, or Facebook when registering with a site.

Always use email address and password (with 2FA where possible) to ensure you have ultimate control over your base account.

If Google chose to just ban my account, the downstream ramifications of me losing access to linked sites that use that account for auth would be very damaging.
Both amd and intel have hitched their wagons to ARM.

> For me this test truly only tests how good you are at that test.

International students are a completely different story. As you say, your entire educational experience had been in another language. This is not the case for students in the US. All students here have taken many multiple choice tests in English by the time they get to the SAT. For example, there are state- and federal-mandated tests that students must take.

> Perhaps the SAT can be predictive of performance for those who grew up in the system that prepares you for the SAT (or ACT). For anyone else, this is however meaningless.

It is perhaps close to meaningless for an international student, but for a student who went to school in the US, it is not meaningless at all.

Universities in Canada definitely do have issues due to the high school GPA system.

In Quebec, it's not present, instead you get in based on a Z-score renormalized based on how good your class was at standardized tests in CEGEP, which itself disproportionately looks at your standardized tests scores and those of your peers in high school

As far as the rest of Canada, highly competitive programs have to calculate the strength of a high school to normalize for grade inflation, especially in Ontario. It's a huge problem and makes it unfair for some students who don't go to the right high school.
I hadn't thought of that aspect but I strongly suspect this is the cause.

If a change happens gradually you're not going to notice it until there's some glaring indication of it. And you often won't notice that things haven't returned to baseline when you know there was a deviation. (Observation: Long Covid is more common amongst athletes. Really? Or are they actually measuring a baseline and seeing they aren't what they used to be?)
