> emotional regulation to avoid throwing good money after bad

I was once interested in going pro, and I landed on some advice that said to go to a poker house and fold every hand for 3 hours. Poker has very high variance, and you can easily have 3 hours of hand shuffled poker and not get a single playable hand. That was when I realized I didn’t have the emotional regulation to play properly, especially, since part of the exercise was to throw away the strongest starting hand even if you are dealt it during this exercise. Also, that was about the time I realized that poker is generally an extremely boring game, with the very occassional periods of high emotion.

It did teach me a lot about going on tilt though, it’s very easy to throw away a lot of profit after a big loss.

No, this is an example of an existing technique called hypernetworks.

It's not "recursive self improvement", which is just a belief that magic is real and you can wish an AI into existence. In particular, this one needs too much training data, and you can't define "improvement" without knowing what to improve to.
Isn't the keyboard and touchpad exactly the same as on the 16" ?

I assume they're taking the same approach as Apple, and have the same input components but just padd around on the larger models.

The screen resolution is a tad too low on the framework laptops, but 3~4K would allow for enough pixels to reduce screen elements comfortably. At lrast that worked pretty well with the macbook pro, 13" at max resolution was good for 99% of my work.
Yes, and there has been some discussion of that

That’s a harsh judgement to make without considering whether, for example, he might mostly keep work books in the bookshelf where he works. I’d also suggest doing a little homework, since you could easily correct that false impression from his public presence.

It doesn't need to be intentionally "generating propaganda". Their old diversity-by-appending-ethnicity system could easily lead to "a sign that says Black", which could then be filled in with "a sign that says Black Lives Matter", which is probably represented quite well in their training data.
Probably try to find someone to do it for me. This sort of thing is massively complex due to international law and tax differences. You can maybe abstract the issue a bit by using tokens like bits then paying out, rather than using currency directly. But in the end you still need to pay out and still need to conform to law in whatever country you pay to or do business in.

I would probably avoid doing this at all costs unless it was perceivable that it would result in significant return, significant enough to justify the initial pain and ongoing costs.

Someone else mentioned KYC, which is also very important here to avoid fraud and potential legal issues. KYC is not easy to get working because bad actors will always find a way to break it. It is also not cheap and is very heavy with overhead.

Be aware that engaging in these things may also put you in the hook for complying with laws like GDPR or equivalent, depending on the data you store and how, which can add to things.

Nice!

Those screenshots remind me of my attempt at Doom-style 2.5D raycastinb engine in MacPerl on pre OSX vintage Mac. I wonder if I have any of that Perl4 Quicktime code archived here, and if so, whether I could get it running again?
That's my point though. That it is harder to maintain a feature that not only doesn't exist on both development platforms, but can't work on one of them.

Signal is only like 42 people.[0] You gotta triage a lot of stuff. I wish the feature still existed, but I can totally understand why they did that. I'm pretty sure not all 42 people are programmers.

This seems like a very one-sided opinion/experience. While I've certainly had my own share of odd experiences and heard similarly odd stories, this doesn't really strike me as specific to The Netherlands as a whole.

Agreed. Moreover here's what I want to see and hear more about: for any position that a student feels is extremely wrong, go to the lecture and defeat the argument! Winning isn't cancelling. Winning is getting the other side to stumble, and reconsider.
I hope you manage to figure it out. My guess would be something redirecting output to /dev/urandom by mistake rather than /dev/null but I would be entirely guessing.
> How many European colonies failed in the new world?

In at least one case the failure of the colony resulted in the country which founded it being forced into a slightly one-sided merger with its nearest neighbour, which is why the British flag now has blue in it.

Modern nations may be mindful of this and wish to avoid repeating the mistake. On the other hand, they may have a case of the FOMOs after looking at how successful the USA became… at least if they convince themselves their new space colony won't also declare independence just like the USA did.

This is a good tip! It also captures what has been frustrating about golang for me. The language feels a bit stuck between simple default cases and allowing complexity.

I feel like there are two relatively distinct populations of go developer: those who love how easy it is to start (true!) and those who are frustrated by the compromises the language has made to allow for more complex cases (required!). There's also a hidden third population of people who no longer sing the praises of golang as a simple, straightforward language but accept its compromises and write productive code with it. Those people, I think, write fewer viral blog posts.
AI is a problem, but unlike Chess and Go, Poker involves each player having information that is unknown to the other players, and actively misrepresenting it.
I really appreciate them highlighting both the refurbs and the b-stock this way. My 13" framework is a refurb - I've had no problems with it, and I'm glad for the opportunity to reduce or at least amortize the production costs. I'm really looking forward to when they get the marketplace up for second-hand parts, but I love this as part of their overall commitment to reducing waste & encouraging repair and reuse.

A Go module specifies the exact versions of its dependencies. These versions do not change unless the author explicitly updates them.
I've long decided that this is basically the only skill in poker. OK, that's too trite, but it dominates all other skills.

If you can play even a little bit - eg you know some hand rankings and don't get too drunk - you're better than some players, and you can find a game you can beat.

If you're the 20th best player in the world, but instead of looking to play against weaker players you yearn to challenge yourself against the best, or in general if you move to bigger and tougher games every time things are going well, you will lose money in the long run.

It's not quite that simple in practice. You might be one of the worst players in your local cardroom, so your only winning move is not to play. Or you might be one of the best, but you don't travel to other games, so you win in spite of your self. I've seen so many people like this! If you play on the Internet, however, that's effectively not possible.

As sibling said, I think the right move is they withdraw from linkerd, and start their own project. CNCF should appoint new stewards of the project or archive it.
Require resets to be initiated and authorized by the F&I department, whose security and KYC processes should already be substantially similar to those of other institutions that regularly approve $50,000+ loans.
This was no accident either. This was deliberate, programmed discrimination.
I think Forth counts, in a "Turing-complete" sense of homoiconicity. A Forth program in a classic indirect threaded system can self-modify, reach in and change core interpreter words during execution. But it isn't obeying any formal soundness principle, since it's just a thin layer over the machine.

Compiled Forths might opt to wall off some of those options behind the compiler interface, in effect making the language slightly less far-reaching.
This is what Rust does with `cargo run`; I think Poetry for Python tries to do the same thing but I haven't used it in awhile.
Agree - your first paragraph restated better what I wrote elsewhere in this comment set. Telling a student what's going on in a subject is one thing. Intent to mould an outcome isn't. Teaching is not a by way to lobby.
yes, and it might make sense, and we will see ... but.

the real economics low-hanging fruit is to build those regular NPPs in increments, basically cheaper AND faster (which also means even cheaper). get real economies of scale, apply all of the last century's industrialization benefits on nuclear energy. (because current cost overruns are insane and mostly because of too-slow AND super-duper-artisanal (which means even slower) plant construction.

Precedence climbing is a natural and efficient way to parse expressions in a recursive decent parser. It's used by Clang in LLVM.

One use case that I'd be interested in for this is training it to use my voice a la Descript. It's been really nice that our Head of Marketing can iterate on video voiceovers using my voice and all I had to do was read 30 seconds of copy.

Any plans for something like that? It'd be really interesting to have prospects what with an AI version of me to answer some basic questions.

They kind of buried the lede: the alternative is their "subhosting". This is similar to Cloudflare's "workers for platforms", or some of Fermyon's former marketing.

The idea is that your SaaS would offer an interface for your customers' developers to build integrations directly in your own product. I guess like building Zapier into your product.
Feedback taken. I'll add more details on how this works for us technical people. LLM integration is in progress and coming soon.

Any idea what would make you feel safe? 3rd party verification? I had it verified and published by the Microsoft Store. I feel eventually it all comes down to me being a decent person.

"All the data in the world" is an article like this that refers to a multiple year old study, but of course refuses to link to the study, which describes a grand total of 31 "organizations" that supposedly switched to 4 day work week? (I guess "89% of participants" sounds a lot more convincing as a headline)

An article that refers to a study, which is positive about a 4 day work week, which was written by someone who works for a company that advocates for 4 day work weeks? A study which was literally written by somebody who over 30 years has made it their career to push this idea, and who directly financially benefits from pushing the idea? Written by somebody who profits by selling multiple books about how "overworked" Americans are?

Man, they've sure convinced me. I guess the millions/billions of companies across the world that don't do 4 day work week just really have no idea what they're doing. Those 36 data points provided by the most biased author you could possibly find really is all the data in the world.

Exactly the recipe I swear by as well!
Interesting idea!

I didn't like being locked out until I disabled my adblocker, but maybe you have your reasons.

There are 6 or 7 events listed for the entire Burlington, Vermont metro area (over 200,000 people), which is way, way less than what's actually going on in the area.

The locations of all the events that are there are off: UVM Patrick Gym isn't at the administration building where the pin is (but at least the pin is on campus). The others make no sense, though: the Flynn Center is on Main Street downtown, not way out on North Ave, and Higher Ground Music is located on Williston Rd, not across town at the South Burlington indoor skating rink. I don't know where it's getting its location info.

The Flynn and Higher Ground Music have dozens of events on their websites that aren't listed on the map. I'm not sure how it pulled a random handful; must've been from an incomplete data set, though.

It's an idea that has promise but I don't find it useful right now.

Disregarding simplifications from symmetry, the first three moves comprise 9 * 8 * 7 = 504 possible combinations. Surely you can enumerate at least that. So you'd only need 9 bits, saving you a bit. And I'm not sure why you'd need to mark whether X or O starts: X always starts.

> Dependency injection has always been such a bad name for the concept. It is just passing dependencys as arguments.

No.

Dependency Injection means using tooling to "inject" the dependency, instead of passing an explicit argument.

> Think of Guice's `@Inject` as the new `new`.

Like many architecutral design patterns, toy examples don't illustrate the concept well. It's used for doing things like switching a large service-based system from using external databases and remote services for production, to in-memory everything for testing.
The current standard isn't. Google uses non-standard E2EE, and they and Apple are working on getting it standardized.
>What's the big deal with calling illness an illness or mental health disorder?

I'm not on medication and have ADHD. You're just essentially calling me disordered, disabled, and untreated. The consequent stigma impacts my social and professional opportunities, and this stigma is justified primarily on the basis that if I just simply hate and disparage who I am enough I might be motivated to take ADHD medications and thus become "better".

I dunno, when you call me less orderly than other people, and less able than other people, but I'm not being described a "lesser"? Utter horseshit. I've heard this sort of rhetoric in disability communities many times before but no, being disabled and disordered is a bad thing. That is WHY Russel Barkley likes calling people disabled and disordered - because that give people an impetus to get "Better".

I simply an intolerant of people using languages that portrays me as less capable, when autism + ADHD has opened up many doors for me that otherwise would have been closed. It's just fucking unfair and defamatory. If people want to be on meds, go on meds, but I don't see why you have to call me "disordered" in the process.
OMG! Some people can have adverse reactions to a drug/vaccine? Like the conspiracy theorists were right! This is totally the first drug to ever have adverse reactions...
Had this discussion on Discord as well. Like most things Forth it depends how you use it. If we consider the classic indirect threaded systems, then every field in a definition is an address called an execution token (XT). In most systems you can convert an XT back into a text label. This allows pretty simple de-compiling for example.

It is trivial to collect those Xts as data and execute them later.

CREATE XT-LIST ] THESE WORDS COULD BE FORTH CODE [

XT-LIST now contains six XTs. They can now be read one XT at a time and executed.

So if one accepts that those XTs are data, BUT they are also code since they can be "executed" by the Forth VM then I think we can say Forth is homoiconic.

However if that doesn't suffice it is perfectly legal to pass text strings to EVALUATE.

: TEST S" THESE WORDS COULD BE FORTH CODE" EVALUATE ;

That's all I got.

You need to be good at deciding which cards to hold and which cards to throw away. You need to know when to get out of a game, and when you should really go out running. Also never count your money while you are playing. You will have time later. But to be realistic the most that you can hope to is to die while you are sleeping.

People are usually being hurt harder by deflation than by inflation though, and it's demonstrably the best way to get overthrown (which usually doesn't happen with inflation) by a lunatic dictator. (Weimar Republic gets a bad rap for its hyperinflation period, but it survived it, and in the end that's Brüning's *deflation* in 1930-32 that caused the eventual demise of the republic and the birth of the 3rd Reich).

The kind of intermediate-level inflation (not tour typical inflation, but also not hyperinflation) that exists in Argentina (or Turkey for that matter) is typically caused by governments addressing underlying problems by driving inflation up (it's not an unintended consequence of poor monetary policy, they aren't oblivious). Sure it's not nice, but the problem is: how do you solve the underlying problem anyway. If you just say “I'm gonna play the "strong money" card no matter what” you're not solving the problem, you're tying your own hands and now you have two problems.

Be careful what you wish for.
They would not have to collude; there is no incentive for either to publicly endorse a secure algorithm. Both Russian and U.S. intelligence services want the ability to break into anything.

They would publicly endorse insecure algorithms, and then employ more secure algorithms in their own classified systems.

I think encryption quality is best evaluated by math and technical testing, not international political triangulation.
I'm a bit surprised `rev` isn't in coreutils, it's ancient. Originally written because `cut` doesn't allow selecting fields from the end of a line. So to get the last field in each line, you reverse each line (right to left) with `rev`, select the first field with `cut`, and then reverse it again with `rev`.
