Not sure. But rust/regex (of which I am the author) is above pcre2/jit in rebar's measurements. Hyperscan is too. All of rust/regex, Hyperscan and RE2 use finite automata, no JIT and no backtracking.

There is more to the perf of a regex engine than whether it uses a JIT or not. :)

Many of the curated rebar benchmarks (in the README) do not just list numbers. They also try to contextualize those numbers. (I am only one person though with limited expertise, so they tend to bias toward what I know. But still, it's miles better than what you'll see in most benchmarks IMO.)

And of course, make sure to read the BIAS document.

I've had it translate back and forth and write songs in Simlish! It even knows and is fluent in fake nonsensical languages.

Prompt: Write an a cappella cover of a Philip Glass song in Simlish.

ChatGPT-4:

Creating an a cappella cover of a Philip Glass song in Simlish presents an interesting challenge. Philip Glass is known for his minimalist compositions that often consist of repetitive structures, and Simlish is a nonsensical language. Since Glass's compositions are largely instrumental, I will create an a cappella adaptation inspired by his musical style while using Simlish-like sounds.

Verse 1:

Doo doo zib, doo doo zib, doo doo zib, doo doo zib,
Bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob,
Glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb,
Sul sul sul, sul sul sul, sul sul sul, sul sul sul.

Chorus:

Froodle froodle, zibba zibba,
Dag dag, drib drib, yibbs yibbs,
Slooble slooble, wib wib, dor dor,
Lerpna lerpna, gort gort, zor zor.

Verse 2:

Doo doo zib, doo doo zib, doo doo zib, doo doo zib,
Bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob, bada bada zoob,
Glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb, glarbni glarbni glarb,
Sul sul sul, sul sul sul, sul sul sul, sul sul sul.

Chorus:

Froodle froodle, zibba zibba,
Dag dag, drib drib, yibbs yibbs,
Slooble slooble, wib wib, dor dor,
Lerpna lerpna, gort gort, zor zor.

Remember, this adaptation is meant to be playful and fun, as it doesn't have any real meaning or convey any specific message. The focus here is on capturing the essence of Philip Glass's minimalist compositions using Simlish-like sounds in an a cappella context.

Alright, my argument is that parent needed to redefine what those words mean. Intelligent means having high intelligences, high IQ. That does not imply being reasonable or having emotional control. It does not imply ability to shut up when you do not know what you are talking about either.

Moreover, being able to admit mistakes (specific thing mentioned by parent) is oftentimes detrimental for you. People who do not admit them are typically rewarded, people who easily admit them punished. So, what you are looking at is "ethics even if it does not benefits me".

Yeah - saying 'linked' is not helpful, maybe something like 'resemble' would be more informative. On the the Elsevier ScienceDirect page for the paper itself, there is a 'highlights' summary:

• The Hiroshima glasses are condensates produced by the Hiroshima nuclear explosion.

• The wide silicon kinetic fractionations in the Hiroshima glasses can only be explained by condensation.

• In Hiroshima glasses, oxygen mass-independent fractionations resulted from chemical reactions during condensation.

• A scenario was established to describe the formation of the Hiroshima fallout.

• The Hiroshima glasses can be considered an analog of the first condensates of the solar system.

(My apologies if I am inadvertently reposting an LLM-generated summary, but it looks reasonable to my nowhere-near-knowledgable eye.)

I keep thinking about parking cash in box spreads on SPX directly -- pay net $98,000 in option premium now and earn $100,000 in a few months, effectively lending to the market at the rate implied by highly liquid option prices.

The section 1256 tax treatment is especially cool not so much because of the 60/40 taxation but because if you have several consecutive years of 60/40 gains you can edit your past year's income by incurring a current year loss and having a carryback loss.
This is really cool! Any reason Apple savings isn’t included?
The problem is fraud + disputes. Who's liable for people sending money to fraudsters? For letting fraudsters operate on the platform? See the fraud issues of Zelle, which is basically a free money moving service comparable to FedNow.

The service the networks provide is a way for all participants (banks, people, businesses, etc) to trust one another, as well as a healthy rules-based system to address disputes. Getting this working is not trivial.
Typically the person including the JS tag that then fetches the massive third party payload has no idea that's what is happening.

It is very common to get multiple departments and contracted companies sticking their misc JS in since every marketing SaaS tool they use has it's own snippet. Your SEO guy wants 3 trackers, your marketing has another 5, and you sell on XYZ online market and they have affilliate trackers etc.

No devs engaged at any point and the site performance isn't their responsibility. They can't do their job without their snippets so the incentives are very sticky, and the circus goes on.

It's kind of like an NPM dependency tree of martech SaaS vendors...
This is probably the best advice.

My therapist helped me first acknowledge that it would be a long process to overcome procrastination and to stop being too harsh on myself. Then, I tried to do the smallest possible step that I was capable of doing towards the task I was procrastinating on. This could be as tiny as just sitting at my desk for a few seconds. The next day I would sit for a little longer. Then I would just open the file I was supposed to work on, etc. That's where the therapist was very helpful to me, she helped me overcome the guilt of doing something so ridiculously insignificant and be satisfied with it, while at the same time treating the deeper roots of the problem.
That would be great, but history has shown doing those things to be less realistic. I'm in Phoenix and Waymo is all over and driving safely. We need this everywhere ASAP.
Yeah, if there are pathological conditions (e.g. depression) my advise doesn't really apply.

What I see is a push to make procrastination look like a character flaw and trying to sell "solutions" to it. Even to the point of using ADHD medication to increase focus, training courses, etc.

This causes a lot of anxiety and pressure to perform in otherwise healthy individuals.

As if procrastination is THE reason you don't succeed (and why daddy doesn't love you), and if you could just fix it, all your dreams will become true.

Success is (in my experience) more about luck and prioritization.

Luck because there are a lot of things you don't control, and prioritization because most things don't really matter, and learning to focus your energy in the ones that do, will take you a long way.

Quite true, that maybe a target, but still it's quite hard to achieve due to 3rd party services you would use, or even simply the hosting you would upload your site on.

I only just learned about this in Matt Levine's newsletter [1], and assuming they don't get regulated out of existence, it seems almost too good to be true. The effective tax-discounted rate of return on a 5.6% interest-bearing account is really only 3.5% because it's ordinary income (paying taxes of .37 * 5.6). But as long-term gains it becomes 4.3% (paying taxes of .238 * 5.6). And while it is compounding you pay no taxes at all.

FedEx may have the worst and least secure digital platform for a major company. Some examples I’ve noticed:

1. I moved into a 10-unit apartment building and wanted to set up FedEx Delivery Manager. I just put in my new address, no verification whatsoever, and I was immediately given access to the previous tenant’s delivery instructions which included the buildings private garage code. Any thief could have done the same.

2. When I moved out of that building I wanted to add my new address to delivery manager … but I couldn’t. The site errored every time. The reason? Some forums revealed the correct hypothesis that if you have special characters in your password then some parts of the site are permanently broken for you. Including the change password flow. So I had to have my wife make a new account with a worse password.

Truly amateur stuff for an otherwise very impressive company.
> I really wish this were true, but especially in programming I don’t think this is the case.

I should have made my prior assumptions clear. The "most people" I'm referring to are CS graduates or people with IT diplomas and the percentage among those who are trainable to a capacity of competence in most companies are roughly 70%.

> Perpetuating the lie that all our brains have an equal capacity to program is a terribly cruel injustice. Some students would be much better served by finding another career that they can excel at.

When I was still a uni student I used to be a CS tutor in a help desk setting and I especially remember one guy who used to come in a lot. He had a really great attitude despite being humbled by the fundamentals. He used to repeat to me: "Sometimes you have to ask for help when you need it." After that semester I didn't see him again. I also remember a particularly annoying guy who used to come in and waste my time and the other tutor's by bringing in a problem and then solving it himself within seconds of sitting down just so he could talk about how he solved it and how much he knew. The world is not a fair place.
A modern farm vet can credibly service farms within a 100 mile radius of their home because of motorised transportation. Without that form of transport, travelling 100 miles and back in a day becomes untenable, and vets may only be able to operate within a few miles of their home.

So without motorised transport, we'd need more farm vets per square mile of agricultural land in the country.Thus more farms vets in total employment and more people living in rural areas overall.

I don't mind being targeted online since it changes the ads I see from "Acai berry smoothies" to "beach vacations". Something I am not interested in, to something I am interested in (due to browsing history). That makes my experience better and I understand the trade off while using a free product (Google Maps, Facebook etc etc).

However, the difference in this case is that the vending company (or someone along the chain) is using it to serve demographic ads to the customer of the vending machine. I still have to pay for the product and it's not changing non targeted ads to targeted ads (there were no ads before). I'm sure they aren't passing along some of the ad revenue to me since there's no competition (I'm sure all vending machines in the area are owned by the same company). So this is just a source of extra revenue for the company and serves no purpose to the user.

I think the problem with Vice is not that they are moving to just social media / YouTube, it's that the whole segment news publishers is dying. If you are running an org with hundreds of positions, management overhead and other fixed costs that come with operating a traditional company, it's very hard for your to compete with the likes of Substack and other independent journalists. In fact I'd say that there are very few companies these days that can make it work, either you are the New York Times or a similar org in which case you can use your sheer weight in the space to survive, or you're an org like Daily Wire that has a specific angle (conservative news) and then subsidize your standard revenue with products (DW launched a razor company, and a chocolate company, both are billed as the "conservative alternative" to Harry's / Hershey's).

Outside of those groups, everyone else is getting clobbered by Substack and Twitter. 10-15 years ago if you wanted to be a journalist you had to go work for one of the major newspapers, nowdays you can strike out on your own with a Substack and Twitter/X account. Those guy put our news just like they would at the major newspapers, but they have a fraction of the overhead that those guys do.
Modern CPUs have many limits to protect the CPU and later the clock behavior. For example, clock limit, current limit (IccMax, 307A for 13900K), long power limit (PL1, 125W), short power limit (PL2, 253W), transient peak limit (PL3), overcurrent limit (PL4), thermal limit (TjMax, 100c), Fast Throttle threshold (aka Per-Core Thermal Limit, 107c), etc. It also has Voltage/Frequency curves (V/F curve) to map how much voltage needs to drive a certain frequency.

Intel 13900K has a fused V/F curve until its maximum Turbo Boost 2.0 (5.5 GHz) in all cores, and two cores at its Thermal Velocity Boost (aka favored cores, 5.8 GHz). How much to boost depends on By Core Turbo Ratio. For stock 13900K, this is 5.8 GHz for 2 cores, and 5.5 GHz for up to 8 cores with E-cores capped at 4.3 GHz.

As you may have noticed, the CPU has a very coarse Turbo Ratio beyond the first 2 cores. This is to allow the clock to be regulated by one of the limits rather than a fixed number. In reality, 253W PL2 can sustain around 5.1 GHz all P-cores, and after 56 seconds it will switch to 125W PL1 which should give it around 4.7 GHz-ish (IIRC).

This is why when a motherboard manufacturer decides to set PL1=PL2=4096 without touching other limits, it results in a higher number in benchmark. The CPU will consume as much power as it can to boost to 5.5 GHz, until it hits one of the other limits (usually 100c TjMax). This is how we ended up in this mess in the consumer market.

Xeon, on the other hand, has a very conservative and granular Turbo Ratio. My Xeon w9-3495x do have a fused All Core Boost that does not exceed PL1 (56 cores 2.9 GHz at 350W), which makes PL2 exist only for AVX512/AVX workload.

(Side note: I always think that PL1=PL2=4096W is dumb since performance gain is marginal at best, and always set PL1=PL2=253W in all machines that I assembled. I think even PL1=PL2=125W makes sense for the most usage. I do overclock my Xeon to sustain PL1=PL2=420W though (this is around 3.6 GHz, which is enough to make it faster than 64-cores Threadripper 5995WX))

This is a very complex question.

Traditional farming is not sustainable because they don't have pesticides and so once in a while your whole crop is destroyed and your whole village starves to death. Some traditional practices slowly destroy the soil over time.

Fertilizers like nitrogen (one of the largest fertilizer uses) are needed for the best yields, but modern farming creates enough as on farm to be sustainable without the addition at lower yield levels.

However when a crop leaves the field it takes away some things like sulfur, potassium, and that needs to be replaced for the next crop. I'm considering this a failure of modern transport to bring those back and not modern farming - but this should feel like a meaningless distinction.

When I say modern farming is sustainable I mean that modern farming is building up soil over the decades. While we need to replace anything actually removed with the crop, the soil is getting better year after year.
That’s… not what I said. If you want other people to host services (like to federate), it’s going to be pretty impossible for the vast majority of people to actually do it if you only allow IPv4 connections.

You cannot federate behind CGNAT, and most folks can only open ports over IPv6, because they don’t live in America where everyone can get their own public IPv4 address. This is a pretty big miss IMO.
I also ask people to walk me through some recent code they write. So if you didn’t know the git answer no biggie
