This is useful, thanks. Since you're using this for learning, would it be fair to characterize this as asking the LLM to write code you don't already know how to write on your own?

I've definitely had success using LLMs as a learning tool. They hallucinate, but most often the output will at least point me in a useful direction.

But my day-to-day work usually involves non-exploratory coding where I already know exactly how to do what I need. Those are the tasks where I've struggled to find ways to make LLMs save me any time or effort.
In general, if you don't pay taxes, in the listed countries you still can get treatment. It was probably a provocation - I guess?
Sounds like Cycle.js
It prevents the editor from (legally) becoming proprietary software which deprives users of their software freedoms.
Neither of the links works
tbh idk.

i wanna focus on ppl who play a lot online and are trying to improve rn.

in the future i'll prolly add more features for beginners tho.
1. My government will continue to pay my Social Security if I don't remain living in the country. My father emigrated from the U.S. to Israel after he retired and he continued to receive his Social Security for about 20 years, until the day he died.

2. "Also, how about if you get into trouble. If you're arrested for a crime (even if eventually found not guilty), will you continue to receive social security?"

"If you receive Social Security, we'll suspend your benefits if you're convicted of a criminal offense and sentenced to jail or prison for more than 30 continuous days. We can reinstate your benefits starting with the month following the month of your release." — Social Security Administration

3. "Is there any circumstances where your government could refuse to continue paying it?"

If it goes broke, certainly.

4. And most importantly: could your government invent such a circumstance in the future, and then invoke the new circumstance to deny you the payment?"

Of course!

It's about money — not love.
If Russia was playing the long game then Finland would never have joined NATO.
Yes. By banks I meant "Financial Institutions", which includes credit cards and other types of loans as well.
emacs and vim were niche way before VScode was around. The goal was never market dominance. It's not a market. It's a tool. With users. And these users are also active contributors to their own ecosystem.
Did Putin expect a protracted war?

Thanks for reading!

I hadn't heard that about credit card rewards. I'll talk it over with my accountant. Thanks for the tip!

>Also those cloud expenses look significant. That looks like an 80% increase year-over-year which is substantial. Is there a way to shave off a significant amount by moving to a different method for architecture? Or will that break your system? I worry about rapidly growing cloud expenses especially when you're not that huge of a company.

The big one is Shopify ($4.7k). That's partially because they charge a percentage of our sales and partially because we had to upgrade to the $300/mo plan when we switched to the 3PL in order to get features that bridge our 3PL's system to our Shopify account.[0]

The other big jump was in HelpScout ($2.4k) because we used to have a discounted rate as a startup, but that ended after two years, so we pay a whopping $50/seat.

>Can you share insights in the high yield dividends you're earning that are also low risk enough that the underlying investment value doesn't erode?

Oh, really nothing especially clever. Just the popular Vanguard index funds like VFIAX (S&P 500) and VBTLX (total bond market).

I had some money in VLGSX (long-term treasuries), which didn't have a good time when interest rates increased in the last couple of years, but fortunately, I was diversified enough for stocks to compensate.

The same way they already did in Estonia in 2007?

Ok so maybe the trains didn't run on time, but they invaded a lot of neighboring countries really fast. Something that Russia doesn't seem capably of doing, as was pointed out upthread.

It's not a good idea to broadly think "nazis are stupid, they won't get anything done". Sometimes they get things done and then we're fucked.
This particular argument is unrelated to the unitary executive theory.

Unitary executive theory is the straightforward idea that Article II means what it says. “The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.” So the President has authority to hire and fire executive branch officials and bureaucrats.

The arguments here are based on separation of powers. The Constitution provides for three branches of government. The NLRB is an executive branch agency. But it (and other agencies) exercise what are essentially judicial branch powers.
Could be of note that Stockholm is building the world's second-deepest subway station right now[1]. Though there's no real alternative to that because it needs to go under water (well, in the ground under water) towards the next station.

TFA’s author is one of the co-creators of Django and a preeminent member of the Python community. I think it would be charitable to assume that he does, in fact, understand these things.
This person is an unhinged libertarian.

> What seems more obvious to me is that most people strongly dislike the idea of for-profit government. They actually greatly prefer autocrats who substantially serve personal ends!

They assume that just because they don't want a failed form of capitalism running their government that they must embrace autocrats.

They also assume that for-profit corps do things "better" and for "cheaper". This is flatly wrong and I can show it on my garbage bill. While I can't show it on my Internet bill due to former state law, I can also tell you that government-operated FTTH is significantly cheaper than for-profit companies running the same fiber based on a municipality that did get fiber in prior to enacting said state law.

What kind of wrong-think is this blog post? Can't we have people for people and not libertarians for $$$ and fuck-the-rest?
>Back in, like, ‘07 people ran all their apps from a single city. S3 was designed to work for those kinds of apps. The data, the bytes on the disks (or whatever weird hyperputer AWS stores S3 bytes on), live in one place. A specific place. In a specific data center. As powerful and inspiring as The Architects are, they are mortals, and must obey the laws of physics.

I heard, or read, somewhere in the last week that S3 used to be globally replicated, and eventually they changed it to a single region to save on bandwidth. Is that true?
We focus on making sure that the most popular distros work smoothly. Currently, Ubuntu LTS and Fedora are the two that we provide official support for, since they are the most popular choices for folks who are either new to Linux or aren’t especially interested in tinkering with their OS: https://frame.work/linux
How are they undermining democracy though? You may not like their politics but what have they done to say they are anti democratic?
Ahh I completely misunderstood the article from a quick reading. It seems like the only solution to a tricky problem.

Thanks to anyone who replied to me pointing that out. It's a good example of when one should read the article more closely before commenting!
It's not just Capitalism, it's a symptom of all hierarchies. Hierarchies are a social contract, existing only so long as enough people are willing to participate. That will manifests differently at different layers of the hierarchy, with the downtrodden base class for instance mostly participating out of a resigned faith in the hierarchy's inevitability, but for those in the middle, the trust that their ongoing participation will be rewarded with both a share of the spoils of the hierarchy (extracted from the bottom classes) and the opportunity to advance up the hierarchy is CRUCIAL in maintaining the structure.

The fatal flaw in all this is that the hierarchies provide perverse incentives at every level to hoard the benefits of participation to oneself. It's a tragedy of the commons situation, where any given individuals misbehavior in supporting the system is unlikely to break it, but if everyone does it absolutely will be shattered.
No the employers contribution doesn't come out of your pocket. The employers contribution comes out of the employers pocket and is the cost of doing business. That's like arguing the rent for the office space or even the warehouse or servers come out of your salary. Your salary is essentially a function of supply and demand and not a function of cost. I mean, if external costs would influence salary we'd see remote workers earn more than on site ones, because employers save on office rent. In reality it's more likely to be that remote workers have a lower salary.
Actually, I have a question for you on this. There's a big push towards "shift left" in the industry.

I'm all in favour of empowering developers to deal with stuff earlier, but the amount of false positives these tools generate seem like it would just distract.

I think some kind of review and filtering of them before the average dev sees them would actually work better. Do you have an opinion on that?

It's evolution. I like Python, it gets love and support. And it's all about the data structures - really. With python all I have to do is figure out the data - the rich set of OO, functional or imperative approaches and APIs does the rest.
Thanks for the feedback. As noted, the website copy might need some work. We are a team of engineers, not copywriters, but we definitely have some work to do in that area.

Also considering this is a new product, we can only improve from here. Thanks.
I remember watching a documentary about his life, and in his early years he has expressed some "extreme-right"/nationalist views. I assume that he was click-baiting anyone who would hear him, gathering fame and fortune. Eventually he was recognised as a 'potentially worthy' opponent of Putin and was given the support and guidance to become what he became.

(Majority of) Russians are 'different'. They don't care to change. They don't understand the "modern" way of life. They don't understand the new/modern approaches of 'diversity'. (Understand = it conflicts with their ideology, traditions, mindset - of course they understand and simply disagree).

In Russia, historically, the easiest way to solve a problem is to eliminate the person behind the problem, and the problem will solve itself. I has been done like that for centuries, and I don't feel that this will change anytime soon.
In your card example, the theory that posits that you picked the cards intentionally is something that can be subjected to scientific scrutiny. We are allowed to ask where you came from, what caused you to form the intent, and then prove or disprove such claims.

No such inquiry is allowed with fine tuning, because it's designed to terminate the scientific probing. The designer is beyond understanding by definition. You say that fine tuning proponents are still "open" to figuring out why or what this intelligent designer is, but unless you can provide an example of a reputable physicist actually working on this, it's a false claim. If there is such a poor soul out there, they are working on a sisyphus task, hoping beyond hope to understand the supreme being that made the universe.

First we were supposed to believe that the earth was flat, because that's how God made it. Then when that was disproven, we were supposed to believe that it was round, but that it was made 6000 years ago, in 6 days. Then when that was disproven, we were supposed to believe that maybe it was older but it was the center of the universe. Then when that was disproven we were supposed to believe that maybe it revolved around the sun, but that God made us in his image. Then when that was disproven we are supposed to believe that evolution did happen, but only because God willed it by fine tuning the universe. With each new claim, religion moves the goal post further and further beyond the reach of contemporary science, but they are all designed to trap the mind within religious bounds, where once you get to God you are not allowed to ask any more questions. Look up Hegelian dialectics for a fascinating example of this. Fine tuning is but the latest example.

Here is one physicist explaining how to falsify one version of the multiverse theory: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/blog/2014/06/30/why-the...

The reason why the behavior of people accepting the argument is important is because with an unfalsiable claim like fine tuning, if you're not patient enough to wait hundreds of years for physics to figure it out, one of the few things you're left with is appeal to authority. If you can trace the claim back to a bunch of religious quacks who otherwise never made meaningful contributions to science, you may decide that it's not worth your time. (I am obviously not talking about people who found evidence of fine tuning, but about people who then use that as evidence of a supposed intelligence).
Care to provide some links apart from 'they said it on fox news'? Its exactly the type of narrative putin would like to push to marginalize another high profile murder, and we have seen he can be an expert with playing foreign powers and media against each other
I recently had to explain to some Gen-Z folks what things were like ~12 years ago when I worked for Twitter. Their initial reaction was as if I said "Yeah I worked for the Galactic Empire on the Deathstar project a while back".

It was truly amazing that one could start / join a conversation with so many relevant and insightful folks (depends on the community; there was always useless noise). I remember trying to learn Erlang a bit and whenever I'd tweet something about it, Joe Armstrong himself would often start a short thread with me to resolve my misunderstanding.

I think the term "enshittification" really covers the process well [0] to explain what happened.

I want to agree, and I understand the position, but there's no room for nuance when you throw around the work 'always'.

I think I disagree that it is always good.

For instance, if a company is paying someone to work on open source, and they use that to leverage the project in a direction that is against its other users' best interest, can that be good? I don't think so.

There are numerous examples of situations and behaviors you could come up with that are not 'good'.

I'm all for people making a living, but I don't like bad behavior, no matter if it generates 'freeish' source code or not.
They were lining up because their local area had had a significant shortage of dentists, not because of some socialist death panel agenda.

Behold, a capitalist "utopia" where your medical bills being paid can depend on how many people you can share your GoFundMe with, or where you divorce your lifelong spouse while on hospice care so as to not saddle them with debts arising from your end of life care.

When I did factory work back in the '80 (when people still wore watches to tell time) quite a few folks on the floor wore their watches that way to protect them from damage. Whether that makes sense or not depends on what you're doing with your hands.
It's not clear what you're complaining about here. The fact that many people use this option, the fact that Julia included it in the article, or the fact that it's an option to change the default branch name in the first place.

Also it's pretty sad that this is the only part of a very informative article that you deigned to comment about.
When I moved to the PNW, it was for Amazon, and during my interview loop, I asked everyone, "How long have you been at the company?" They all had pretty much the same answer: three months, five months, eight months, and some that had been there for a few years.

But I decided to get out of Dodge and interviewed at Microsoft, and I asked everyone the same question. The responses were shocking to me: five years, ten years, 12 years, 22 years. One person even told me that he hadn't been with the company very long: only 18 years. And he wasn't being coy.

I've been at Microsoft for more than ten years, and I still feel like the new guy. I started at the tail end of the Ballmer days, and I'm sure it was a real grind back then, but I'm glad to see a company that -- in my experience -- treats people well enough that they'll stick around.
"I am not inventing anything. I have not seen a single source that would indicate a commitment not to accept new members into NATO until the present day."

You are inventing a strawman again. 1997 isn't present day. Bye.
Haha yeah, that’s well put — “latest” depends on time, and something that depends on time is not deterministic, so those principles conflict. Currently a Framework project has the opposite priorities as Go and always gets the latest version of the data.

When I first started working at Observable I explained reactivity to my now-wife as “when one thing changes, other things that depend on it update automatically.” She was at an asset management job at the time working in Excel all day, which of course is also reactive in that sense. But she interpreted my statement differently; she said “Oh that’s terrible! If a number changes I want to know.” E.g. if the estimated budget for a project had ballooned, she wanted to hear about it so she could check why, ask other people about it, try to contain the damage, warn others, make other decisions differently, etc. “Automatic” would be harmful, like in your Go example. She was also thinking about coarser-grained data than I was — a single very impactful number, not a stream of mousemoves or pageloads or ad clicks or whatever.
Error design depends on context. For most of the systems I work on, fail fast on request for anything out of spec is the correct design. B2B/Microservices/API focused systems. Windows however has focused on bending over backwards to provide compatibility (including memory patching popular software that was broken, like Simcity https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/windows-95-went-the-... ). In the context of a user desktop where a user has no control of correcting the system code, the final experience is more important that correctness in many cases. It doesn't matter who is "in the wrong". Microsoft learned that it doesn't matter why the BSOD occurred, just that bad software/hardware was giving them the bad reputation.

So yeah, fail fast/halt catch fire on any invalid input/condition is my personal preferred design, but I can see the value in this approach in this environmental context. The important thing here is that context and not applying either dogmatically. Don't take Mr Chen's approach in reactor or HFT designs for example. Fantastic approach for game engines.
> upgraded Python ... all virtual environments and all PyPi packages are broken now.

Misleading. Continue to use the older version, or packages will need to be installed in a new folder for the new version. Recreate venvs and/or simply reinstall any --user.

Russia is not an European country.
It requires running water and indoor toilets for this. Also not being run by mafia.

The current conflict is going to break it up into smaller chunks sooner or later. I'm going to enjoy watching it burn.
> I'm not sure that's an accurate reflection of the man's views. Your sequencing is not construable to a new fact.

> He did recant any notion of Ukrainians being Russian. He also asserted ukrainians Right to independent self-governing.

I never followed Navalny very closely, but my understanding was he opposed Putin but he was also a Russian nationalist, so (at least pre-2022) there wasn't tons of distance between them on the topic of Ukraine.

Since Trump and especially since the more recent invasion of Ukraine, I think there's been a tendency for Western liberals to concentrate on Putin, oppose him, and therefore idealize his opponents as being and thinking just like themselves. So the liberals would tend to avoid thinking about certain uncomfortable facts, and Navalny may have been incentivized to conform to their views (given he was in prison and his main protection was the attention and sympathy of foreign liberals)

Jerome Powell of the US federal reserve knew that he would put companies out of business, and people would lose jobs, when they raised the rates. In fact, that was the goal.

"In September, hiring was much greater than had been expected, with the unemployment rate staying near a half-century low. Strong hiring typically empowers workers to demand higher wages, which, in turn, can worsen inflation if their employers pass on the higher labor costs by raising their prices."

Virtually any organization can promote a sense of place and belonging in people, facilitate communities, encourage cooperation, etc. Only one type of organization does it by arranging very serious lectures about things that didn't happen.
It’s possible to hate them and recognize why they’re doing at the same time though…although I do think there’s also a hefty dose of arrogance and self importance in there.
I’m old enough to remember when we (devs) felt this way toward Microsoft…so if I was Tim Apple I’d include that risk in my calculus cause what came next was two decades in the penalty box.

Seems like they hate us (developers) back though so it’s a mutual relationship I suppose.
