We need some kind of ISO standardisation of language syntax. All new languages must have the exact syntax for standard constructs, so that anyone can write useful programs with the one syntax they know. The languages may differ around the edges.

It is getting out of control now. Every designer feels compelled to come up with a new way of defining a function, etc.
Discord does have a forums feature, which is somewhat searchable, so that's not entirely true.

I think the best thing for this stuff is still a forum, like GitHub Discussions (or Issues), or just run your own message board.

If my steering wheel isn't connected to my front wheels mechanically, that's asking for a lot of trust. Previously a severe mechanical issue would be the only thing to worry about. Maybe on an EV with always connected and charged batteries it would be better, but on ICE I can imagine a number of ways the electrical system suddenly fails and now the wheel does nothing, even if just for a short lag.

At least on brake by wire ICE systems I could let engine braking slow me if the brake system fails somehow (even if I have to blow the engine to save my life, worth the trade).

The article claims that they did know about it: "First, according to people close to the project, the team responsible for Gemini was not only warned about its “overdiversification” problem before launch (the technical term for erasing white people from human history), but understood the nebulous DEI architecture — separate from causing offense — dramatically eroded the quality of even its most benign search results."

It seems like you and the GP didn't read even the first 20% of the article. The author shows their CGM in the first 2 page lengths. They mentioned they did all of this because the official Libre app was constantly losing connection with their CGM. He bought a "hat" device called a "Miao Miao" and then siphoned off the data to his own CGM service that won't cut out if it receives, as the author puts it, "anomalous readings"

I just randomly picked Ford for this. Ford had like 176 billion in revenue last year, but their cost of goods was like 150 billion and their final net income was 4.35 billion. Ford sells on the order of 5 million vehicles per year.

If you can generate $50 dollars of COGs reduction in a car, that's 250 million per year. Yes, that's basically nothing in terms of their COGs, but that's like 5% increase in net income (if they can channel all of the savings into the net income anyways). Alternatively, if you want to be less cynical, Ford's R&D budget comes from that ~20 billion dollar slice between their revenue, COGs and final net income. 250 million is still a pretty ~1% slice of their R&D budget.
It was a term for politicians, too bulky for normal conversation. We said Surf the ‘net in 90s California.
how long they live before reproduction, reproduction rate, edibility (while you're waiting for them to be tame), in-captivity behavior, what they eat, etc matter a lot since they are the variables going into the equation for how many 100s or thousands of years you're going to have to devote to this.

Also, if they are basically useless now, most groups won't even realize there's a point to starting to tame them.
The sense at Google is that it's dangerous to rock the boat too much when it comes to certain pieties. It would have been a good idea to have someone doing that, and Google certainly has the money to, and plenty of people thought it was a good idea. But suggesting that or taking on that job would have been at best neutral for your perf packet (if you did nothing) or outright negative (if you actually did the job and raised red flags about Gemini's results). Someone would complain they were offended or felt threatened by your work, and then you're out the door.

In fact, Google does have a diversity problem, but it's the opposite of what the corporate apparatus thinks it is.
This stuff seems to me to most likely be an attempt to avoid the fate of people like Charles Murray. If people can find anything to call one of the dreaded -ists or -isms in your book then the signal goes out to all the good thinking NPCs that this book is ismist and everything in it can be ignored. So if you want people to engage with your arguments, you've got to lard your book up this kind of stuff as a prophylactic.

this is what I do as well but my structure is `~/git/<project>/<worktree>` for the worktrees and a bare git repo is stored in `~/git/<project>/.git`.

The workflow I do is

1. git clone https://path.to/repo.git

2. mv repo/.git repo.git && rm -rf ./repo && mkdir repo && mv repo.git repo/.git && cd repo

3. git config --bool core.bare true

Now you can just create worktrees in the root of the git repo.

This has the advantage that the `~/git/<project>` directory is still understood as root of the git repo and the worktrees are never checked out inside the working tree directory.
Hard links only work in the same filesystem. If your system only has one volume with one filesystem (e.g. a PC) that's fine, but not a very portable option for servers.

Some reactions are instinctive and don’t require thought.

Having previously driven a car with a mildly unreliable power steering system, it’s an extremely good thing that the power steering was backed up with a mechanical linkage (that worked very well — it was surprisingly subtle when the power steering crapped out at 30mph).

A drive-by-wire system had better be a lot more reliable and also notice impending failures.
The article is very interesting but am I the only one that feels weirded out by how articles like these are published on the web?

There's no author information besides "Editor at SurferToday" in the HTML metadata. I understand that some people may wish to publish anonymously, but I think if you used a pseudonym like John Surfer it would at least feel like an actual person wrote it in our current era of AI-generated articles.

There's no date of publication. Of course the page itself may change with any CSS/template change and one of the great things of URLs is that you can modify the article with more recent information, still, having a date is kind of important.

There is no attribution. So is this an article of someone who interviewed her personally or is it a transcription of the video? The video is not by Surfer Today, it's from a channel called "Imagining the Digital Future Center" with 900 subscribers, but the actual brand on the video is called Internet Hall of Fame.

I've seen so many articles like this and it always feels so strange to me for some reason.
> Most people don't know, so they are not bothered. That's why this symbol works the way it is - it would not work, if everyone recognizes it as "dead butterfly".

Yes-- symbol meanings are even more malleable and imprecise than English words, and on top of that, each of us interprets it through our distorted lenses formed by life experiences, cultures, priorities, successes, traumas, etc. Without being able to design for individual people, you can only try to design for specific groups or communities, and you always risk alienating people for whom the message lands differently. To get a little more info about some more involved communities' usage of these symbols, I did a quick google image search for some related terms, like "Lepidopterist Symposium" and "Butterfly Expert," and got these references:

I didn't see anything indicating the people in these photographs were unrepresentative. In this situation, I'm pretty confident that very few people see "dead butterflies" when they see a butterfly symbol that references one-- even people that absolutely know the difference.

I pay for all the games I play, sometimes going way out of my way to do so (obscure japaese studios who don't sell outside), but I will never pay a company that attacks my rights. I say that as an x-nintindo superfan who owned every generation and 100s of games up until the wii when I learned of nintendo's outright delusional takes on reality and there abuse and misuse of laws and the legal system.

You are free to also delude yourself and call it piracy and "stealing" all you want, but emulation and playing ripped games absolutely is - and will hopefully remain - your right.

447 occurred from a design flaw in Airbus aircraft that have independent joysticks instead of the Yoke available on Boeing fly-by-wire.
The first officer who had more experience than the pilot flying the plane was unaware that the pilot was pulling back on the joystick. If the plane were properly designed as Boeing fly-by-wire craft were designed, eg, 777 at the time, then the accident wouldn't have happened because the first officer would have realized the pilot was pulling back on the yoke for the stall.

A principle in safety is that you want things encoded in the "hardware", eg, you can't put your car in reverse without putting your foot on the brake, even though you are taught this in driver's ed.
The Airbus designers forgot this major principle by using independent joysticks, a lesson not forgotten by the Boeing fly-by-wire craft.

The thing is, I don't even think you need a Murray-esque argument to make a good case here.

It's pretty clear that smarter doesn't necessarily perfectly correlate to civilizational ascendance.

All you need to do is make an argument that doesn't literally hinge on the hereditarian hypothesis being incorrect, i.e. an incredibly fragile idea.

They just can't help themselves.

Also, the infamous "Murray gambit" of being obsequiously philosemitic to the point of raising eyebrows (which just offended all parties) would definitely have a different tenor coming from Jared Diamond.

I'm a Software Engineer with ~12 years of experience. I've worked across a fair few stacks at this point but have a fair amount of experience in Python & JavaScript, not to mention general DevOps stuff. I've also worked across a few different roles, from Lead Dev to Engineering Manager.

I'm currently nomading around Southeast Asia and am keen to find some contract/freelance/consulting work. I'm pretty flexible with what I'm looking for in all honesty, my main want is to help solve problems and write some great code.

I started flying in 1999, and I have to say, this article more closely resembles my flying then than my flying now. Dual VORs, one with ILS, no LORAN, obv no GPS, and all pitot/static vacuum gauges. Not CHT, I think it had an EGT, no fuel flow or digital engine monitor. I remember when I went from a C152 to a C172 and finally a 200RG Arrow, one of the biggest learning curves was folding/unfolding your maps faster to keep up and keep a clean sterile cockpit.
Its hard to state how much aviation has progressed in the last two decades.
Right. I would love to know if Intuit will be liable for any bad advice. Any customer who takes bad advice and loses their court complaint will be very sour about the whole thing.
I loved Debt for the ideas, but I abandoned this since it seemed to be pushing their politics so hard. I've read Zinn, GGS, later pop science anthropology books, 1491, 1493, as well as kept up with john hawks, razib, etc as far as paleogenetics; I wanted to like this book but a lot of it didn't add up - the theory was so complicated and specific. There also didn't seem to be much room left for the evolution of larger scale social structures... yet to me the way things went in history seems obvious. Most of the actors and roles in early human history have cultures shaped by their survival imperatives - and the variety of belief systems we know about match the needs of that culture. Anyway, I would love to hear a good defense or explanation of the book, to make sure I haven't missed anything! I abandoned it possibly 1/3 in, and then read reviews, which mostly confirmed what I had been thinking, so I never went back.
Doesn't the context affect things much more than whether you like the particular results?

I'm a Software Engineer with ~12 years of experience. I've worked across a fair few stacks at this point but have a fair amount of experience in Python & JavaScript, not to mention general DevOps stuff. I've also worked across a few different roles, from Lead Dev to Engineering Manager.

I'm looking to get in at the founding or early stages of something that I can really get my teeth stuck into growing and being a part of. Until I find that I'm also open to contract/freelance/consulting work. I left my previous role at the end of 2023 for exactly this reason, and I left Singapore after 5 years at the same time. I'm currently traveling remote across SEA whilst I search for my new home.

You can absolutely check it out in multiple places. You get a warning because the behavior is unintuitive.

If you want to force it to do it anyways you just use -f/--force.

When you check out a branch, the expectation is that the working tree is in sync with the current head commit. If you check out the same branch in multiple places, then if you commit on worktree a, worktree b won't say that it's still on the old commit, it'll just say that the diff between the current head and the contents of worktree b's working directory are a bunch of uncommitted changes. That's why it's unintuitive.

This is clearly not the intended behavior for most users when they want to check out the same branch in multiple places. They want to check out a given commit that happens to be the head of the current branch in multiple places. To do that you use --detach so that the worktree head points to the commit rather than the branch itself.
Musk stated that he predicts that 2023 going into 2024 will have a shortage of transformers and that based on the rate of improvement of AI that there will be a shortage of electricity in 2025. Maybe these are moves by tech companies trying to preempt what might be coming?

They haven't found anything that would require an agricultural society to support it. Also, the time and location matches the origin of the oldest known strains of farmed grain. And the remains of people from agricultural societies differs dramatically from non-agricultural, again not far away in time and space from Gobleki Tepe. And the amount and type of animal remains suggests non-agricultural diet, with animals hunted and slaughtered elsewhere and carried in (the site wasn't used year round). So dawn of agriculture. A popular theory is this sort of society grew big enough (due to abundance of animals in the region at that time) that they needed to start farming for non-essentials, such as grain for alcohol, kicking off what would become agricultural societies.
