Litestar seems to have a very active social outreach team while fastapi seems to have an active user base to me. It's strange to see how often it gets shilled for by its maintainers/fans in python threads to the point it makes me uncomfortable with the project.

I’d argue the internet is much bigger to date. In the future, who knows — anything getting closer to AGI would be bigger possibly but still built on the backbone of computers and the internet.

You use both terraform and ansible in the same project? I always thought of them as competitors filling more or less the same role, do you find it useful to use them together? Is it that hetzner and digitalocean TF providers do a good job but provide limited functionality, and ansible fills in the gaps for you?
Those languages have safe interfaces (the programming languages themselves) over a runtime that has to use unsafe code at some point (e.g. to write the garbage collector). If that's not memory safe, then Rust wouldn't be considered safe either, because its standard library is built on unsafe code with safe interfaces, too.

There is zero need for template recursion here, or even templates at all.

> Working in software I didn't sign up for something that people will put their lives in the hands of

It really depends. I think it happens more frequently than you thought. From life supporting software and automated planes which are obvious, to suicides caused by buggy software (see the British post bug) but also all the harm that social algorithms or private data leak can do.

In fact, there is a lot of things that can go very wrong with most software systems.
The problems he described have less to do with the technology and more to do with the fact that people just have way too much time on their hands. We consume garbage content because we don't have anything better that we want to do. Why else would someone read crap articles from SI written from a fake person?

Using the examples of both adults and toddlers to make his point is apt. At least the toddler has no choice.
> mean the company closing the account

The account with the money, not with the service.

> Your estate is a legal entity.

Only after the executor probated your will and therefore received the rights to manage your assets. Until then nobody can (at least legally) to do anything with the money. And while nobody would bother with an automated subscriptions (till there are enough money on the account ofc) there could be problems if the assets would be frozen until the executor would claim the rights for them. Or if the bank just outright cancel or disable the card to prevent unauthorized (hey, the guy is dead, he can't consent!) withdrawals or payments.

> as long as the bills were being paid

Not every jurisdiction is fine with the money operations from a deceased person.

EDIT: oh, and here even if you have a will signed yesterday and you are named the executor of the will you still need to wait a half of the year for the probate to complete. And IMMSMV you can ask the banks to freeze the assets, specifically till the rightful heirs would be determined. Specifically for a case when a loving niece, ex-gf, bff, whoever wouldn't be able to withdraw everything from the deceased's accounts.
> Apple has an enormous hardware advantage over Google, Microsoft, and even OpenAI in the space if the constraint is hardware.

The constraint isn't hardware. Google, Microsoft and OpenAI are buying datacenter-scale Nvidia hardware that Apple quite literally does not ship the equivalent of. There are no Macs that support DGX-sized workloads, and attempting to make one seems like a suicide mission a-la Xserve. Nobody is buying what Apple's selling, in the server market.

Apple and Nvidia both compete over new TSMC nodes, and with Nvidia reaching a trillion (!!!) dollar valuation you'd be foolish to assume they're not outbidding Apple as we speak. All things being equal, Nvidia is probably Apple's greatest threat in pure compute-per-watt: https://browser.geekbench.com/opencl-benchmarks

I think that's an American problem though. The fact that our electric cars have to be so big is another thing. We're just not winning on cost and feasibility.

In other words, water is wet. Cars by design are less efficient when it comes to long distance travel. But trains cannot and will not be able to solve the "last mile problem" or even the "last 5 miles" problem when the cities are just massive urban sprawls.

EVs are still better than regular cars and we can have them coexist with better planned cities and public transportation.
>Ride sharing apps fundamentally sidestep this because you see the surge pricing without incurring a cost

Somewhat, but if your plan was to ride share home your choice might just be incur the cost or gamble that waiting will make it better and not worse.

The issue will those CO2 estimations is always the same: what is counted it, and what is not. For example, are the CO2 emissions related to the maintenance of the railroad counted in? On the other hand, are the CO2 emissions related to the production of the imported parts of the electric cars are also counted in? And so on.

And the reason I propose this question is because the argument sounds like green-washing. For example, where I live it is often much cheaper to travel *by air* than by a train even on relatively short distances (<1000km). So if the final cost is correlated at least a bit with the CO2 emissions, which kind of makes sense in a general case (does it?), there is a problem with the CO2 emissions estimate there.

What I am saying is that the problem with CO2 emissions is real, but it is being abused (green washing, etc.) in the absence of a commonly accepted and well understood way of estimating them. And the worst thing about it is that it makes the entire topic more ambiguous for everyone, stirs the speculations (people even denying that the problem exists) and makes it harder to focus on working solutions.
I'm not sure how big a differentiation it was. There are no haggle dealerships, a lot of people still need financing, and people still need to get their cars serviced.

> But it also raises questions as to why they used the INES format as opposed to some internal format of their own

The answer to that that I've seen is simply they hired a man who previously worked on INES: https://web.archive.org/web/20061228071701/http://www.n-side... . This man is then top credited in Animal Crossing for "NES Emulator Program".
> CPUs will increasingly gain specialist hardware to accelerate AI workloads

Maybe, but then you're describing a coprocessor instead of the CPU. The CPU portion of the M1 SOC should be simpler than Apple's Intel processors, considering they don't support the wide bevvy of AVX/SSE instructions in-hardware anymore. The goal of the ARM transition is to keep the CPU side as simple as possible to optimize for power.

Personally I think we're going to see more GPU-style accelerators in the future. People want high-throughput SIMD units, ideally with a good programming framework a-la CUDA to tie it together. It makes very little sense to design dedicated inferencing hardware when a perfectly usable and powerful GPU exists on most phones. It's practically redundant to try anything else.
I'm thoroughly confused on their pricing model. What is a unit? Am I reading this correctly that $500/mo comes with 25GB? So $20 per GB transferred?

Which we're talking about running a real browser downloading all the bloat of a target website, 25GB doesn't go very far. Is this just absurdly expensive?
> make Org Mode extend "today" past midnight. See: http://doc.endlessparentheses.com/Var/org-extend-today-until.... I set mine to 3 (as in 03:00).

That's pretty neat. Now I'm trying to remember how I live without it.
Using the ELK stack for almost a decade to have somewhat wide events + no sampling, on not Meta scale and a few GB/day make it absolutely affordable and super fast. Unfortunately Kibana was a bit better/easier in the old versions than nowadays but it’s still pretty straight forward to get everything out of it.
So, a website fits that definition. Sounds like browsers should be sued.
How do investigators find leaks in a craft that has exploded? I imagine it’s difficult to determine (though evidently possible) whether a defect is in the design, or if it has been introduced by a defect in manufacturing/installation of parts like with Boeing.
It seems to me like you've just described hiring a mathematician on arithmetic skill. If you hire this way of course many will use code practice tools to pretend they are juniors or incapable of delegating since most of their time should be occupied with less low level ways of doing things or assigning things.

I can go a long time without writing for loops, the better I know the surrounding tools in an ecosystem, the less I accidentally reinvent something with details that low.

I don't remember all that much about pandas, but enough to try to use it to do a matrix operation instead of writing the for loop if I were assigned a ML task for some reason.
They aren't (that would make Nintendo's case pretty clear cut), but you can find them fairly easily through the regular channels if you're familiar with piracy.

Of course! Tugboat by OneTrust provides compliance checklist and preparation tools (i.e. InfoSec policies, audit management, controls mappings).

We provide a similar compliance checklist/preparation tool to Tugboat, as well as HIPAA-compliant infrastructure and technical configurations. We’ll set up your application on compliant infrastructure deployed in your cloud, integrate CI/CD pipelines, and provide real-time logging/monitoring. Providing the technical piece that's compliant out of the box lets you save weeks of manual work configuring it yourself.

By covering you not only on an administrative/compliance front, but also on a technical/cybersecurity front, we help you actively enforce good security and monitor compliance comprehensively.

With metrics, you're always sampling. It's impossible to know the value of the measurement at every point in time.

When you collect any form of metrics, something is choosing that sample rate.
[upper class folks would likely get worse care]

I agree that upper-class folks' experience would change in ways that would generate loud protests. But the biggest anger points likely wouldn't involve quality of care. Instead, we'd hear shouting about:

providers' increased emphasis on cost-effective care. (You don't need an MRI because there's nothing in your symptoms that warrants it.) Right now, there's a lot of overtreatment in the U.S. medical system, catering to patients' desire to get big workups.

We should work to convert every process that uses energy to green energy. Then the issue becomes moot. Make everything electric, make all electricity production renewable (or nuclear). For things that can't easily run off of batteries like intercontinental flights, use electricity to produce methane or ethanol, and accept that this is a lossy process, price it accordingly.

AFAIK, one of the things that produces the most CO2, and that we're not doing very much about (or even discussing) just yet, is the production of concrete.

Jellyfin.
I bought prior generations of Nintendo consoles. I had not considered current consoles. I recently reconsidered via discovering current games via emulation and am now put off by present behavior. What did they gain? historically downloading a small file has been a poor predictor of people's willingness to spend $20 let alone $400 for console and game.

Also historically emulation has been teaser because they tend to trail console release by years and only gain good support by the time present generation is passe. Probably the biggest issue here is emulation is unusually good because nintendo released gamecube 1 2 and 3 and their latest effort is weak enough that PC actually plays at a higher res.
Tin whistle could be worth looking at. You'll still need a good ear and a lot of practice for your intonation though.
Magit is not slow. At least the components that make Magit are not slow. transient, magit-section, forge, etc. are not slow. Magit delegates things to Git, and that can be slow in certain cases on specific environments. Learn how to use built-in Emacs Profiler to find things that make it sluggish.

For example, Magit tries to display tags (in addition to branches) in the refs buffer, for the project that has too many, yeah, that may be slow. The solutions is simply to remove the hook

(remove-hook 'magit-refs-sections-hook #'magit-insert-tags)

It's just a single, isolated example. People complaining "Emacs is slow", is like choosing to drive a nail with the handle of a screwdriver and complaining how hard that is. Well, maybe learn how to use the tool, no?

Emacs is a Lisp machine made to run Elisp byte-code. It's not a final product built with some C and Elisp that you may never need to learn. You do need to have at least some basic understanding of Elisp.

Even if someone is impatient, they could develop inner curiosity and type in ChatGPT "what happens when Emacs opens a buffer". Basic understanding of standard hooks and hooks in general, advising functions, etc. is all required for you to be the "user of Emacs". No wonder we see people claiming to have used Emacs for over a decade and still switching to VSCode. Turns out, most of them never wrote a single Elisp package, or ever understood how some copy-pasted magical elisp snippet ever worked. I can't claim to be a chef or even good at cooking if all I ever do is microwave pizza. Even if I did that for twenty years.

I'm not saying that everyone using Emacs should know how to setup Gnus, master keyboard macros or should be able to whip up a new minor mode in zero-gravity. But please try the built-in Profiler. Learn how to use describe-command, describe-key, etc. It is not that difficult.

'Krasnol argued for keeping powerful/dangerous features, but making them opt-in (and a bit of a hassle to enable). You countered that there will be "some fraction" of users incapable of not hurting themselves with those features, who "will still stumble upon it anyways and will still refuse to take any responsibility for enabling it". My counter to that is that we shouldn't remove such power features just because "some fraction" may find and misuse them.

That's the should/should not part. The rest is my take on why companies remove those features anyway - they have no incentive to provide anything above bare minimum, especially not when they could be on the hook for "some fraction"'s mishaps.
I'll echo OP's frustration / lament. I have domain expertise in a specific platform, and it is pretty common that I'll see an answer which could use some clarification or additional detail about edge cases to consider. However, 1) I never ask questions on SO, and 2) I don't have time to wade through unanswered questions. As a result, though I would like to give them free labor by adding useful comments, I will never be able to.

The point is that SO is missing out here.
A small number of months from now, it would seem.
If you read their writeup about fixing the game, the issues appear to stem from it heavily using a texture format that most GPUs don't support natively and almost no games having done much with that texture format before, so losslessly reencoding them was eating truly astonishing amounts of VRAM to avoid load time issues, and they reworked a bunch of memory management things to make it playable without 12G+ of VRAM.

I don't know if there were any other issues, but at least on that one, it doesn't seem like they needed deep knowledge of the game to try reworking it.
