and that cost is cheaper. Both provides crappy services, one just does it cheaper.
I think they have build up a large userbase over the years. It is pretty beginner friendly imho. The upside of it being arch based is that your favourite package is not years old. For a desktop os a rolling release where every imaginable package can be found in either the official repo or in aur is a huge plus.

Endeavouros came later, when Manjaro was already large and established. It has a more sane approach than Manjaro wrt package mgmt. But by not including a *graphical* package manager they are not an option for beginners. This is possibly meant to prevent success at any cost, I dunno.
Doesn’t seem crazy to me. When faced with a situation consisting of basically nothing but unknown unknowns, it’s going to take a while to determine whether anything that happened fell within Swedish jurisdiction.
I find this a concise definition of good art:

> The true work of art leads us from that which exists only once and never again, i.e. the individual, to that which exists perpetually and time and time again in innumerable manifestations, the pure form (or Idea).

What about Toyota's plans makes you think they will ever catch up to everyone else with EVs?
Yeah yeah, I know. They could have chosen to call it Startup News but didn't.
It’s nowhere near as powerful though, and I don’t think it can do this particular task.
Pretty much. Ecosystem brings most of the value than any programming language.

Thanks you so much!
No.

…and this one is no exception -> https://github.com/RustPython/RustPython/issues/1940

Packages that rely on c dependencies like numpy, etc. only work if you write a custom implementation by hand; the “normal” package flat out doesn’t (and cannot) work.

So basically you get no packages that use native extensions, unless the project explicitly implements support for them.

Pypy is the only implementation I’m aware of that has implemented a c api that is mostly compatible (see https://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/faq.html#do-c-extension-modul...)

For eg. Python running in a .net host or a Java host… I think this kind of compatibility would just be flat out impossible.

For rust… hm… probably possible. For wasm? Definitely not.

Does Neal Stephenson have an orb of seeing? I haven’t read any of his works or predictions but if he can tell the future then that’s worthy of a scientific study, I would posit. Wouldn’t be called predictions then, I suppose.

Not sure if he’s the only one who wrote about possible future outcomes with the tropes listed in the article. But then they wouldn’t be called tropes either, I suppose.
Good. You shouldn't deprecate interafaces used only directly by users either, if at all possible.
There's actually a (very silly) reason for not removing /etc/redhat-release. There's many applications out there that rely on that file's existence, even if it's just a symlink to the proper file. Some apps use this as a way to figure out "what kind of system" it is (e.g. is it a red hat like system?) or as a way to figure out what the system is and version it is running. It's a bit annoying, as sometimes these apps either read it or they don't, so it's inconsistent.

It gets even more weird when you consider /etc/os-release has better information (in my opinion) then the {redhat,system}-release file would ever provide. There's also the random situations where if redhat-release doesn't exist, an app may look for system-release and do some sort of parsing to figure it out (again, ignoring os-release) and may get it wrong.

That's part of why you'll find Oracle Linux, CentOS Stream, Fedora Linux, and even us with /etc/redhat-release existing as a symlink to our own. I find it to be the odd bandaid to something that shouldn't be a problem, but sometimes life just isn't straightforward.
The "too high resolution" point is in terms of gaming performance. A phone has a much higher DPI screen, but it also isn't expected to run PC games which haven't been optimized for the limitations of handheld devices.
Are there any plans to rewrite the browser implementation in the Jakt language once that gets a bit more stable? Memory safety would be a unique advantage over other browsers (aside from Servo).

Don’t look at c specifically, look at syscalls. This is the real api of the operating system. It will also be confusing probably, since it is in some senses like thinking about how functions are implemented in assembly, but you don’t have to focus on the mechanics of how they work if that confuses you. One interesting exercise might be thinking about how syscalls are used to make up the standard library functions you are more familiar with.
You are correct, but do any relevant conclusions necessarily follow from this additional fact? And if not, why do you mention it?
Isn't that how z/os from IBM works? The API is a SQL api into files I think
Staged docker builds seem like a bad idea. Why would you want to tie your build specification with your runtime specification which are inherently different concerns? You lose out on independent evolution and isolation between the two. And for organizations, it forces a structure where a single team needs to manage both.

What problems does it solve that cannot be easily achieved with separate build and runtime files?
It’s highway robbery plain and simple. One does not need to contemplate the rarity of a thing to recognize the evil. Besides, it’s not rare and that you think it is speaks volumes of your knowledge of the subject.

Here’s an analogy: would there be cause for alarm if the police randomly pulled over and killed people for no reason? You couldn’t complain about it. There is no recourse. This is practically the same. The police can and will seize your life savings and say “your money is guilty of a crime but you’re free to go, have a nice day”. How on earth are you ok with that even if it was rare, which it is not?

They don’t even bother trying to prove anything, the fact you have a large sum of money is proof in their corrupt eyes. Some police forces get a majority of their money via this stealing, that should give you an idea of the magnitude of the problem.

To top it all off they don’t even stop criminals from trafficking money. It’s all just to fleece citizens. Pure evil.
I will say that the most issues I’ve encountered with Python happened on macOS machines. The default installation was always old, and success using a modern version depended highly on the techniques used to install it.

For anything that involves dependencies, I rely on venv or pyenv to create a clean environment. When on macOS, I tended to use docker/containers as well, but primarily because 99% of my Python work has been in a Linux environment and I wanted like-for-like as much as possible. But a good version manager directly on macOS should help quite a bit.
Why the system should apologize for you being stupid ? This makes no sense to me.

The Fediverse
A trap representation is not a NaN-like sentinel value. The post also didn't discuss the updated semantics of integer operations, but I assume it just simply shrinks the range of representable values by removing -2^(N-1), and operations with a resulting value that lie outside are still undefined.

Having a NaN-like sentinel with is another option, with overflowing integer operations defaulting to that value instead, but that's not what is proposed here.

The post does mention optional<int>, which could have the NaN-like sentinel (empty optional) by reusing the bit-pattern of the trap representation of the underlying int.
Started it, then almost immediately got a text from daycare and clicked away. I guess I'll try again later.
With a single timestamp how would you write a queries such as "what was the state of the record at this specific moment in time" or "what changes were made to the record between start_time and end_time"? TFA is also using an index on the range table to ensure that you can't enter overlapping entries in the history.
Rocky Linux has /etc/redhat-release as well. Reason being that some software checks that file for version / compatibility information, and we want to avoid breaking it. (They should be checking /etc/os-release, but it is what it is.)
I used to have some MySQL servers running for so many years that I was afraid to restart the machines.
If you drive 100k miles, the fuel cost difference is only 12k. Even then it is questionable if opportunity cost of time spend in charging, house charger installation, higher insurance cost, higher initial price, and lower re-sell value would be paid by cheaper fuel.

Sometimes regulation can help an industry forward quite a bit. For example when a cleaner technology requires massive investments, but nobody wants to be first. When there is a clear cut-off date, like with ICE cars in the EU, then manufacturers can justify the investments and go ahead.

At the same time, a lot of spending on green technologies often means a lot of local jobs. Which can be good for the economy if the money would otherwise be spend on products or services that come from outside the EU.

Finally, economic indicators often don't quite capture quality of life, etc. For example, if EU cities make it harder to drive a car into city centers then that may result in lower economic growth, because fewer cars are needed. But people might be more happy walking, biking, etc.
That's not how promises or commitments work. It's true that that describes the behavior of profit maximization engines, but the language of your justification implies wrongdoing.

> If a group of scientists in 1923 were given a working iPhone, would they have a chance at figuring out how the ChatGPT icon is able to launch something that talks or where Grand Theft Auto is in the machine?

Would they get another iPhone if they break the first one?

The task is no different than any other scientific endeavor, from biology to physics: they'll keep poking and prodding at it in different ways, making observations, accumulating and discarding hypotheses, until some kind of coherent and useful model becomes apparent. Hell, given sufficient supply of iPhones, this would be much easier than figuring out the brain - there's lot of value in short feedback loops and being able to do meaningful experiments on the cheap.

> Is trying to figure out how the brain works by looking at synapses and blood flow and electric fields similar to trying to see how an iPhone works by looking at transistors and electric fields?

They would be looking at that (after speed-running the relevant part of the "tech tree" to understand fields and transistors), and importantly, how it correlates with observed behavior such as ChatGPT saying something, or crashing the weird fire-breathing demon plane???! simulacra in Grand Theft Auto V. Same is the case with intelligence, except we're not free to circuit-bend people the same way the 1923 scientists would be with their iPhones, due to ethics and stuffs.

It's particular acute with Python. The language itself is poor - the value is in the massive ecosystem (particularly around ML).

Compare this to say, Rust, where the safety guarantees are useful in their own right.

There would be value in Rust even with zero packages, but I couldn't say the same for Python.
> In the UK there are lots of deals on second hand EVs

This is sort-of true, it's still a very small market. AA.com are currently listing 159,000 used cars in the UK, only 6,000 are EVs.
As some internal systems will be made available as a product, they do sell it (maybe).
I have a use case where there's no DDL, just a description of the tables, with provided data types, and descriptions of all of the columns, in JSON.

I could generate DDL statements, of course. But wondering if this is the best way to hint at the model of the database structure.

Also, how would you go about supplying the very verbose descriptions of all of the data types? Would SQL comments be best? Postgres-style column comments?

Thanks!
To be fair, Manjaro filled a gap for users looking for a beginner friendly Arch. I understood Arch only recently got a decent UI-based installer and Endeavouros was non-existent back then. I am pretty sure Manjaro has quite a large userbase.

Since Arch stable is indeed stable these days, the Manjaro approach to package delaying does not make sense, I agree with that.

This is exactly what I do with my team. I staff the upper levels first with people I trust (people have worked with me for 15 years across 4 different companies now) and then start fleshing out the rest of the teams beneath them with high potential n00bs.

It’s been a very successful model and continues to be.
Ahaha same, I thought about it for a few seconds
There is an enormous amount of skepticism towards the US TSMC deal in Taiwan, in the sense that Tsai Ing-wen “sold out” Taiwanese IP and top engineers due to political pressure.

And in fairness, the US does not have a strong track record wrt its overseas military shenanigans actually helping locals, to put it lightly. A lot of people in Taiwan are anti-CCP, but at the same time, not pro-US because they see the US as an untrustworthy or at least unreliable military ally.
The card states:

> This model was evaluated on SQL-Eval, a PostgreSQL-based evaluation framework developed by Defog for testing and alignment of model capabilities.

But this explains the testing part.

However, does it mean that only the PostgreSQL-flavour of SQL is supported?

Would it work for Trino flavour?
This is one of the most articulate explanations of KMT. You hit it on the nail that KMT isn’t so much pro-Communists as it is pro China.
Yeah, I think it is funny that in a standard binary, it would replace negative zero and makes some sense. In two's complement, it replaces the minimum value.

Fair that sentinel value is sentinel value, I suppose. But it is not like it is not a known and unique number in that encoding.

I guess as someone that likes php and is meh on Next JS and uses both for most of their job, this seems like an unfair comparison. You have node woes listed here, but nothing about different PHP versions or the headache of migrating from 7.4 to 8 (which every app is overdue for). And while composer can be good, managing php extensions is a nightmare in my eyes. Xdebug in particular is bizarre to me. I'm so used to being able to debug something in an IDE by default that I'm surprised when I switch to a certain PHP version for a project and forget the debugger won't work here until I set up the extension again.

Im running a very small podcast hosting company, and spotify is NOT a good player in this space. They are not respecting the standard in any way. As an example, instead of linking to the source url, they make their own copy and serve that instead in the app, so the hoster does not see any downloads, cannot do statistics, etc. It also add copy protection... They also do not refresh the original URL regularly or the content, so if a change was made to the file , description or image it will not show up on spotify unless you do some custom stuff (breaking other players).

So the break is already happening in this world...
Agree that often politicians sell out their people and natural resources (the rights and endowment of future citizens) for short term gain. This is a natural consequence of politicians being inherently terrible people by and large.

I'm left of Bernie and voted for Biden but I tend to not like takes like this. Is there a specific policy that he championed that is responsible for this?
