I agree. Give me a short, concise, unapologetic error message.

Some years ago, the Google Voice app for Android would put a message in the notification bar whenever there was even the most brief connectivity issue (which in the early days of 3G on android was frequent) starting off with "We have a problem ... <connnecting to your google voice account or something>". Considering that I used that GV number for two highly regulated activities with potential high liability, my heart would skip a beat every time a pull out my phone and see "We have a problem".
Huberman seems to be well-respected, but I just can’t shake my feeling that he’s constantly trying to sell me stuff.
Fair? What would that even mean?

These empty promises are how we ended up electing Trump the first time and it's virtually guaranteeing that we'll elect him a second time.

Rural Kentucky is in horrible shape and a lot of people here were placing hope in this, much like they have so many other empty promises from their leaders, so at least stop acting surprised when the consequences show themselves.

There is no correct meaning of the word spanking, just a spectrum of meanings.

Sarcasm is use of language, potentially caustic, potentially ironic or humorous, to mock someone or something, e.g. if I were to respond to your comment with "What a witty and clever response that totally adds value to the conversation".

What you did was reiterate the same point that @caldarons had already made themselves in the paragraph immediately following the one you are now quoting.

Also, it's hypocritical to mock @caldarons for your failure to understand what they wrote, while also blaming the people who reply to you for not understanding what you write.

Interesting. In our codebase we do this all the time. A quick search revealed 280 occurrences of `some_var = some_var |> ...`.

I also find the pin operator much more readable, as the meaning of `{foo, ^bar} = result` doesn't require to know the context. `foo` is being assigned, `bar` is being matched on. No need to know the code before this line to interpret it.

> In that way, podcasts have reintroduced the wonderful kind of advertising inefficiencies that we saw in the heyday of print magazines

But also, the ads sometimes have a human component to them. On networks like TWiT, the ads are all live reads. There’s variability to them, occasionally guests offer their opinion of them, etc. Sure, it’s still an ad, but it’s not as jarring as the one-size-fits-all creatives that get blasted into your ears and eyes until you’re sick of them.
Those are bridges to native CPython.
There is also GraalPy (https://github.com/oracle/graalpython),
which is a standalone implementation more similar to Jython.
It seems already quite compatible with Python 3.

I have tested the latest version graalpy-community-23.1.2 as a regular Python interpreter from the command line (i.e., not through a Java program).
It was able to run my standard library-only Python scripts,
as well as a script that made async HTTP requests with the external library HTTPX.
It couldn't run a TUI program that used the Python Prompt Toolkit (`AttributeError: module 'signal' has no attribute 'siginterrupt'`).

I am curious about your experience if you have used GraalPy more than I have.
You're right, I wasn't looking at the polls but rather mainstream media pundits' views of Trump's chances which were woefully wrong. So yes, I was foolish enough to think the pundits (which represented their respective mainstream media outlets) were actually basing their opinions on polls and reasonable data instead of lying. Thanks for clearing that up.
How is it not racist to think of shifting racial demographics as the end of civilization? We are a proud nation of immigrants. America is an idea not an ethnicity.
I'd unironically take cute interfaces over many of the ones out there...
A main problem with this claims is that the value provided is clearly wrong (oversized) but nobody wants to see it. This is lying with maths basically.
How do you handle the 60 modifications? Do you store each in the audit log? That's what we do and use a time rollup to get the last change within a certain time range. But I feel like there's potentially better solutions.

Thank you! I watched a podcast episode with Rick Rubin and Andrew Huberman and they did a breathing exercise at the beginning with an app like this. Rick Rubin never mentioned the name of the app and when I tried to search the app store for something like this it was all freemium junk.

I got so annoyed I was about to make my own damn app, but now I don't have to.
I would argue an equally prescient prediction of his is from Snowcrash, the use of sophisticated disinformation and psyops to mass-reprogram the human race, and the innate immunity or resistance to it that some people have. That vision of the future is now playing out in realtime.
Out of interest what places are those?
Can't speak to Adguard:

PiHole isn't natively recursive, but you can easily set up a service alongside pihole on the pi (or in another docker, if your pihole is a container) called Unbound which provides recursive DNS.
Do you have any examples? I've been out of the Python game for _ages_, but can't you pretty much always just:

git clone ...
python -m venv venv
source ./venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Then work on that repo? Everything after "venv" is too new for me, and I've ignored it and somehow not had any issues. If there are some packages that rely on C code and don't have wheels or whatever, you need to deal with the C ecosystem which is the real hell in my opinion.

All the autotools/cmake/scons, library paths, header paths, PKG_CONFIG, etc. I've had so many issues building C projects that I can't even begin to remember all the issues.
Just out of curiosity, do pieces like these get written because a journalist is randomly interested in the idea, or does the author's publisher reach out to the magazine and suggest a puff piece topic?
If I follow a podcast, I follow that creator.

If I follow a YouTuber, I follow that person's channel on a particular, closed, privately-owned platform. If YouTube decides to kick them out, I no longer follow them.

The GitHub Copilot Launch Story
It seems unlikely that there has ever been someone making a prediction, never telling anyone about the prediction and then living his life as if he never made the prediction.

I predict that Donald Trump will claim election fraud in states he loses in 2024. Is that self fulfilling if it happens since I said it publicly?
Oh, and forgot to say: I also don't think learning coding on the job is realistic. Learning a new framework or language if you already know other ones, sure. But learning to code at all, just to start? Probably not.

Big companies are hyper-specialized and have many different types of coders, each of which can't do the others' jobs as effectively. They rarely have sufficient training or cross proficiency programs between them, much less for someone else in the company who doesn't code at all.

Smaller companies will need you to wear many hats and use different skills to a lower (but still adequate) proficiency, but that's not the same as not knowing how to do any of it.

What coworkers CAN offer is exposure. Like if you joined a company doing legal work but regularly working with product owners, project managers, UX designers, marketers, frontend, backend, devops, QA, SRE, etc., you can get a better feel for what each of those roles is like, and that can help inform what you might want to learn.
I would also be in favor of doing this for floating point (get rid of +-Inf, and -0.0 and make the only NaN value be the bitwise negation of 0.0).
We are working on a fully local version of this @ https://redact.dev - Beta should be out within a month or so. Huge (obvious) advantages for doing it locally
We talk a lot about software bloat. How good/fast do chips really need to be for defense purposes? Chips are so good now it seems you could be 2-3 generations back and still get the job done.
Children should be allowed to own property.
I've done genealogy lately, and I've found out something that surprised me (but in retrospect, shouldn't have):

It works the other way too. It's not just wealthier people having less kids, it's families staying wealthier because they have few kids. Most of my ancestors were fairly poor, but it made a big difference whether they shared their inheritance with one sibling or with eight. It seems to have had a snowball effect too: it wasn't just that they inherited money, it was that they could use that money to get more money - and not necessarily even by working. There was plenty of rent-extraction in the 19th century which you didn't need to be a factory owner to do.

And maybe there we are at the heart of the fertility issue: when owning stuff makes a larger difference to your kids' wealth than their own ability to work, you are effectively hurting the kids you already have when you decide to have one more kid. And it starts long before they get an inheritance.
This isn’t true. Podcasts were originally for your iPod, but iTunes was late to the distribution story. Most podcasts used RSS feeds and there were a lot of apps for subscribing to these feeds and automatically downloading the MP3 files.
I loved Snow Crash and could never finish The Diamond Age. I've read and loved almost every other book he's written.
Meanwhile if put a podcast URL into my Webbrowser I just get a bunch of raw XML. I never liked that RSS, while having some nice properties, exists as this awkward thing next to the Web, but isn't really part of the Web.

What RSS is doing feels like something that should be done with just a few extra HTML tags, not a completely new format. But the idea of HTML as markup language feels kind of lost these days.
This is brilliant and I'm excited to see it- especially for small fines. The way to do it is to require the punished party to bring cash, for the payment to be verified and recorded, and then publicly destroyed. This could lead to not only local governments and police no longer having horrible incentives, but also people believing that they no longer have horrible incentives- the verifiability is simple but important, like paper ballots.
Didn't read the rest of the comment because they said they didn't read the article and felt the need to comment on the article.
> What would be the alternative in your opinion?

Force Apple to allow alternative rendering engines, but only the ones with <50% market share. This would promote diversity in rendering engines without giving what is already by far the most dominant rendering engine the opportunity to get more of a stranglehold over the market.

People already mistake Blink-only APIs like Web USB, Web Bluetooth, Web MIDI, etc. for web standards. The market is already dangerously close to where it was 20 years ago, where a vast number of web developers treat the most popular rendering engine as if it’s synonymous with the web. Handing more opportunities for market share to Blink is playing with fire.

You want Apple to allow Gecko or Ladybird? Sounds great! But the monopoly that threatens the web at the moment is Blink.
In exactly the same way, no one knows how many Americans are killed by law enforcement officers, either.

A cynical person might believe that this was deliberate, and wonder why these various "corrections" and law organizations get to police themselves.
I had a slightly different reaction: I was very distracted by the visual artifacts (brain processing, not the actual image), especially around the edge of the circle.

He's written far better, both on the sci-fi side and otherwise.

imo, it goes Anathem > Cryptonomicon > The Diamond Age > Seveneves > Termination Shock > Snow Crash. The Baroque Cycle is historical fiction, but I didn't get into it. REAMDE is a techno-thriller, and a divisive one, where it lands depends on whether you enjoy that style.
It’s a perfectly fine cause, entirely in line with what I’d expect from them.

Just as nudging their own youth into practicing guerrilla warfare techniques while nudging ours into questioning their gender is in line with what I’d expect from them.

To claim they don’t nudge is laughable.
We have the same thing with music. What went wrong with television and movies?
What the Hell Happened to Huy Fong Sriracha?
I personally can't stand his style of writing. Tried to power through Snow Crash but couldn't do it.

Just not my cup of tea.
I think they are not trying to target Spain but rather some country in Latin America, possibly Colombia. Weird enough, all their news seem to be reposted from a Dominican newspaper but there is no Sevilla there. Maybe they thought it was close enough.
It was initially sold as a way to fix browser incompatibilities, but I still use it because there are really nice plugins like select2. I really don't see the point in SPA apps for the most part. Fair enough if you have a heavily interactive frontend, but I can build an app in Django with a bit of JQuery and end up with around half the code compared to adding in React.
So you think performance at each of those other things is negatively correlated with test performance?
Agreed. The powerful part is, “Back to focusing on the circle.”
I guess the "easy to reason about" thing people keep saying is meant to tell you that the modern frameworks allow modularization.

Personally, I do find their style of modularization abhorrent. As you said, it's full of boilerplate, it's also full of dependencies, and the worst sin in a software architecture: they don't enable you to specify a simple interface between modules. But they do solve the lack of structure you get when all the code talks to each other freely through the DOM.

Iterator is not only about collections. Its not as powerful as a yield around continuations but you can return whatever you like.

~15 (?) years ago I wrote a "famous" blog post on how to use Iterator as a poor man Maybe/Option.

}
> I do wish migrations were just generated from schemas though, a la Django.

This is a weird one to me. I really dislike the magical way Django does this and I'm glad Ecto doesn't. It also allows you to have separate Ecto structs representing different parts of a table in scenarios where that is desirable.
No surprise that they lost investors.
If I was a company invested in Scala Center, I would have immediately pulled my funding after Darja Jovanovic’s expletive-laden sexualised rant on stage during a Scala conference.

It’s baffling how a political sciences graduate with no commercial Scala development experience is leading this organisation, but for her to attack an audience and face no consequences, that’s beyond ridiculous.

When John De Goes called her out on this behaviour it was HE who got cancelled from the community (for "personal attacks").

And I literally facepalmed when language founder Martin Odersky endorsed the cancellation (i.e. career ruin) of a significant open-source contributor, Jon Pretty, due to a couple of tittle-tattle blogposts written by ex-lovers. Senior members of the Scala ecosystem becoming judge, jury and executioner of people's private lives, without any due process at all? That's morally bankrupt and deeply sinister.

Scala needs to be wrestled back from the politics, infighting, cancel culture and bait-and-switch licence abuse. The behaviour of Scala Center, Typelevel, Lightbend, Scalar Conference and others is reprehensible.

We need adult leadership now, before we alienate our entire community.

Like a lot of nerdy scifi writers, NS's characters can come off a little... archetypal rather than complex or subtle. It's a lot more pronounced in his shorter works, as there's a lot more internal dialogue in his longer ones - if you find that a deal breaker, it's not confined to the start of the book.

It might help to think of the characters as archetypal because he's writing about the future and these archetypes will be present in the future - the people who make history will seem a bit cartoonish because they'll be more extreme in their behaviour.

And if that doesn't satisfy you might still like his longer books like Anathem - the characters were still recognizeable there, but there was a lot more humanity to their behaviour.
> Others chase their children down with a belt while screaming obscenities. Both of these people are accepted in society if they describe their actions as 'spanking'.

Hitting children with a belt is neither broadly accepted by society nor is it legally acceptable. Calling it “spanking” doesn’t give people a free pass from the law.
The issue is what replacement means, no? The racist tone of it comes from "replacement of white people" being an endeavour conspired by the State to dislodge white people, instead of a natural state of affairs where immigrants have a higher fertility rate than the native population. Characterising such state of affairs as "the end of civilisation" then becomes extremely racist.

Discourse does not exist in a vacuum, replacement has a semantic meaning in this discourse apart from the literal one...
> But at least in my case, whenever I tell people about some idea, I kind of tend to lose interest in the idea. So I just went to work on it instead.

I think that's great advice.
I wonder what you suspect the effects of widespread sustained climate change will be? Of the 'real life' problems coming down the pipe, energy cost, food security, and industrial disturbances are the happy, rosy ones.
I recall walking down a new road in the middle of condos on the way to the Western Wall in J'lem. Like all the other cheap construction in the city, the buildings were stone (wood is found in the five-stars) and the road zig-zagged on its way. "Good way to prevent enfilade," I joked with my hosts, and they replied seriously: "exactly".
I thought RustPython is what Ironpython become after being abandoned for a while.
Nitpick of the nitpick: name shadowing is one of the most important QOL improvements a functional language can add. The pipe operator can alleviate some of the pain of lack of shadowing, but sometimes you really do want to have a chain of transformations to a value that don't fit well as a pipe, such as when there's more than one intermediate value being used in parallel. In those situations, forcing programmers to give each intermediate value a new name each time is pointless overhead and doesn't actually improve "purity" in any meaningful way.
Nice work! Does the trick for me.

Tangentially, I would love to have something like this in which I can "program" my own breathwork routines (reps and sets including breath holds). Been trying various apps, but haven't yet found one that ticks all my boxes. (Tips welcome.)
I don't even have a clue how I solved it for myself, but again, didn't have a problem.
> 23 billon that AWS users pissed away.

While I agree that running your own hardware can be _seriously_ cheaper, this is like saying that renting is a waste of money and everyone should purchase a home.

Capacity planning isn't easy for a lot of small companies. Neither is the engineering time to set up, manage, and troubleshoot the hardware. At a certain scale, these are no brainers to take into your own hands, but for a 15 person engineering team that's completely focused on the product, it would be pretty expensive in human cost to set up and manage your own hardware. Sometimes, it can be set-and-forget, but rarely will it be as set-and-forget as a cloud provider.

Is it more expensive overall? Yes. Is it "pissed away" money? In some cases, maybe. In many, no. The ease of running and reduced upfront capex is absolutely valuable.

Do you have a current guide for installing it?
It would be best to release the gas at low concentration (there's only a little methane in any parcel of air), and it would probably be released over oceans to avoid too much human exposure. A bigger concern could be making sure very little was transported up to the stratosphere before it reacted.
I love how pins make it explicit you are not assigning something without having to look at the context. I prefer it being there even if you couldn't shadow a variable.
By analogy/homology:

Technically, software isn't exactly physical either, of course. It works with information contained in physical states, but isn't -technically- itself physical.

Arguably this can be demonstrated by moving it to a different physical representation (magnetic, optical, diode charges, dynamic memory cells; little endian, big endian; AMD, Intel, ARM, Turing Machine In Game Of Life, Minecraft Turing Machine) without affecting its behavior or functionality.

I don't think there's anything particularly mysterious about this kind of phenomenon, per-se.

You could grok the behavior of the software by poking at the hardware its running on for long enough; but it might be more useful to split the problem into separate layers that are easier to reason about. (Hence the need for reduction and emergence)
Hitting “+30s” for free in Apple Podcasts competes pretty well in my experience.
He means that companies exist to make a profit, supply customers and their needs and to pay employees.

If they make a promise to spend money and economic conditions change to the extent that they would lose money, it makes sense to not continue with that commitment.

Comparing a company making a profit with a politician trying to get elected is not fair.
Can you play a TikTok video on, say, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts?
