Also worth noting is that while the "Early Access" changes were not kept secret, the Yuzu team went out of its way to make it harder than necessary to replicate an equivalent build from the public Git repo (there was no public EA branch, just a bunch of PRs with a specific tag) and aggressively disapproved of anyone actually forking the project or providing unofficial builds. They couldn't actually stop anyone under the license, but anyone doing so risked being blackballed/banned from official spaces, and in one case a Yuzu developer allegedly even altered the copyright notice on a contribution because it referenced a provider of unofficial EA-equivalent builds [1].

Various studies point at a lower bound for endurance when doing knowledge work. Some say 4h.

As long as they get something done those employees will still feel like they put in their day of work and they will still get good reviews. Could they have done it in half the time? Maybe, but who can tell?

I'm my own boss and I'm paid if I deliver results (and I think everyone should work like this, being an employee is opaque and overall sucks for earning potential if you are a good performer) but sometimes I put on a movie on a second screen while I'm working, mainly to make dull work (it's crazy how much you can charge to write the same old boring API or the same old Reaxt component for the n-th time) more tolerable.
I'm definitely working slower but at least I'm getting things done without losing the will to live.

Am I stealing time from my business?
You forgot to mention the 256GB SSD.

I had a Macbook Pro 2015 with 256GB SSD. (Base model was 128GB). It was a very painful experience even back then. Yet almost ten years later, we are here, still paying $200 to upgrade to 512GB, when almost every Windows laptop comes with 512GB. FYI a 1TB NVMe gen 4 drive costs less than $100.

The IM-1 Lander was supposed to land using a LIDAR altimeter, but they forgot to remove the safety before launch. They tried to make a last minute software change to use an experimental navigation system from NASA to get altimetry, but this didn't work. So the lander landed using visual navigation and IMU data only for the last 15km to the surface.

It probably would have landed upright if the LIDAR worked. It is impressive that it landed as intact as it did

That depends on how much atmosphere. Mars has enough atmosphere to be annoying, but not really enough to be useful. Winds can throw you off target, but you can't use a parachute for a soft landing.
I'd argue that North American style suburbs have no legitimate place in the urban landscape at all, regardless of the nature of residents' jobs, as in they're an insufficient, half-hearted, and often ugly solution that people just get used to living in. I find them unsettling places to be most of the time.

The difference between a small town and a neighborhood though that favors my disposition, is that there's generally more variety and specialization available in the local economy and community, as well as less of a dependence on a vehicle for visiting anywhere outside the neighborhood. There's not just 1 gym, there's 4, there's not just one physical therapy office, there's 5, there's not just one dentist or coffee shop, there's 13. Of course, I'm not visiting even 2 of these places at any given time, but others are, and it's nice to know that there are alternatives.

And it's not just meeting people for the sake of socializing, it's also a platform for a broader exposure to diverse cultures and a hypothetically larger dating pool, more education opportunities, access to an international airport, more telecom providers (in theory) that can provide better services if that's important to you.

Small towns however seem great if you've already done all that and just want a quiet place to putter around and maybe have access to the mountains or enjoy farming. There's a certain serenity you might not get near/in a city, and there's absolutely a lack of space that small town wouldn't have. People in that small town might be welcoming and friendly as opposed to cold and hard to pin down in the nearby city, but the reverse could also be true depending on where you've chosen. It's a perfectly valid choice, it just depends what you're into I suppose, and if there's train access that would be even better.
Gotta love that specific language.

They did do a workstation level Amiga - the A4000.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga_4000

It was just a little too late as the workstation market was drying up and they arrived with a Sun 3/50 competitor in a market that Sun had already started to walk away from. You could buy alternate CPU for the A4000 as it had the CPU installed on a daughter card and I think you could get a PowerPC setup in that chassis.
And more flights per day and more routes (debatably a bad thing), so scheduling is a lot easier (for the passenger).

Good considerations, a couple of points in response:

1. Do you know anybody who has gone through a revolution? E.G. I know lots of east-block programmers who lived through the fall of the iron curtain. If so, ask them this question:

"How long, before the revolution actually happened, did you know it was going to happen?"

Uniformly, everybody I ask always says they had no idea until the day it happened. Sure, these kinds of things don't happen overnight, and in retrospect, it is often easy to see how things were going to inevitably lead to it.

But apparently its really hard to see these tells before it happens.

2. But suppose for sake of discussion that some billionaire was observant enough to see it coming in time for him to arrange transportation to his castle.

As long as there is an external legal system, a rouge guard could be tried for theft or murder and locked away. But should the legal system collapse, the guard finds himself in the position that he is the one with the guns, and that whether he steals from or kills the owner of the castle is entirely up to his own decision.

As the external society gets worse and worse, and as the guard is observing that the billionaire refugee is living in comparative luxury, and that the refugee can only pay him from the very store he is guarding....

...why would he do all the work, and take all the risks of being a human target, while somebody else gets the lion's share of the benefits? When he could just turn the gun on the refugee and kick him to the curb and have it all?
The bubonic plague would probably be the classical historical example - cutting the labor supply in ~half increased wages/prices across the board with no increase in profit to capital.

In a less somber example, unions in the 20th century had some notable successes at labor-driven inflation dynamics (i.e. at least classically until Reagan broke the back of labor by firing all the striking ATCs in the early 80s). While everyone's purchasing power shrunk because of the oil shocks in the 70s, labor unions were better at fighting back for their share of the pie than the rest - so perhaps not growth, but they were certainly winning the redistributive battle in the 70s.

I have two Samsung Ultrawides, one at home, one at work. They both work perfectly fine with my M2 Max MBP, including at 120Hz. I have connected them directly and via a Lenovo TB4 docking station. No issues either way.

One thing you should be aware of is that having two seperate monitors can be an advantage for Window management on macOS. With two monitors, I can swap spaces on one of them and keep everything as is on the other. With only one it's not that easy.
svk is a tool to do exactly this. You can always copy the actual repo, you have read access to it after all. Something like svk vastly simplifies this workflow and can keep your local copy up to date.

Keep in mind that the intended workflow with svn is to perfect a patch locally and commit when you are done. So something like svk is considered a special case, not an integral part of the workflow. git actively encourages you do split your work in separate commits using rebase.

So there is a big difference in intended use, perhaps not as much in technical ability. Linus would likely have gone mad had he forced his workflow on svn.

Think of how trivial it would be, from a storage perspective, to have a central repo of every (publicly-funded, at a minimum) research paper ever written if copyright issues were not present.

It could be run by an international non-profit or as a collaboration between governments. It wouldn't be particularly expensive to run when weighed against the huge long-term benefits.

It's really a failure of the U.S. and EU governments to not clamp down on the Elseviers of the world who bring very few benefits at a high cost to open science and society at large.

The CCP purposefully subsidizes its own industries to the point of economic lunacy specifically to destroy the domestic industries of other countries, and thereby make them dependent on Chinese exports (yes, this is the famous venture capital model of "subsidize the service until we have a monopoly and then jack the prices to the moon", but applied to geopolitics). They have plenty of headroom (and a huge domestic market) to pivot away from an export-focused economy while still gripping the rest of the world by the balls for at least a few decades.

Hi! Author here. This was actually my second article on wages and inflation (the first one can be found on my site - Dec 4, 2022 - Wages and Inflation). In that one I tackled the generalizability of the result, especially to the US economy. I 100% agree that for a result to hold, we need similar assumptions and conditions (basically the issue of external validity of a study). Regarding wage growth and inflation and the causality between the two, it actually has been studied quite heavily. From my previous post:

"Due to the simplicity and logical appeal of this theory [wage-price spirals], it has been heavily tested empirically. Most empirical studies to date suggest, however, that wages do not cause1 inflation. Schwerzer and Hess (2000) from the Cleveland Federal Reserve did an overview of the economic research at the time and found very little evidence supporting the idea that wages cause inflation. Only one study showed a causal impact2, while three others, and Schwerzer’s and Hess’ own work were not able to find this causality. The reason for the ambiguity in results is because inflation and wages move so closely together that attempting to separate and isolate which one causes which is not straightforward to do. Their own work focused solely on establishing the direction of causality, using what is called in economics and statistics “Granger causality”, which is a test whether the future values of one time series3 (inflation in our case) can be predicted by past values of another time series (nominal wage growth) and vice-versa. The review and analysis conducted by Schwerzer and Hess suggests that increasing wages do not cause inflation. On the contrary, evidence likely points to inflation driving increased wages."

So I would say so far the preponderance of evidence suggests there is unlikely to be causality of wage growth on inflation [in the US]. Multiple methods have shown the causal link is unlikely.

Are there circumstances in which wage growth can be the trigger of runaway inflation - I suppose there will be such conditions (how feasible/realistic they are is also a question). Have they occurred it in the US - does not appear so.

However, regarding the main issue at hand (i.e. current inflationary surge), there is even more evidence that it has not been the case, and we are nowhere near wage growth that would make us wonder about the wage-price spiral. Real wages are growing well below productivity.

Summarizing - you are 100% right that it is important to keep an eye out on external validity issues. It is also important to state the underlying assumptions (whether it is regarding the conditions of the economy or the mechanisms). It is something I am trying to get across with all of my writing and maybe could have done a better job in this particular case (although I have written a more theoretical post on the same topic, so that influenced the writing here)

I guess most of it is because these light aircraft just won't die. These are simple, well built machines, and treated well and with the appropriate maintenance, they can last essentially forever. Because they have been in use for so long, we know just about every failure mode, and they were build in a time where the idea of safety was comfortable margins and aerodynamic stability. It results in robust machines suitable for training.

Sure, they are slow and inefficient, but these are not airliners where the point is just to get passengers to their destination as effectively as possible. Here, flying is the entire point, who cares if it is slow? And the fuel costs are less than buying and maintaining a more modern airplane when you already have a 50 year old but still usable 172.

Clean sheet airframes exist of course, like carbon fiber, high performance machines, good for those who want high performance, but usually, that's not a priority for flight schools.

Interesting example on the difference between Sonnet and Opus (from https://chat.lmsys.org/):

Here's the prompt: "Fix the subtle grammatical errors here: ```As the notice above states, it is not recommended using the latest CDN version directly in production. Though Babylon's team won't do it deliberatly, it is always possible that something went wrong during build or deployment of a specific version and that the CDN was updated with some code that will break your production application. We also can't guarantee 100% uptime, though we do our best to do keep the server online.```"

Sonnet's response: "Here's the corrected version:

As the notice above states, it is not recommended to use the latest CDN version directly in production.

We also can't guarantee 100% uptime, though we do our best to keep the server online.

Changes:
1. "using" changed to "to use"
2. "deliberatly" changed to "deliberately"
3. Comma added after "deployment of a specific version"
4. "do keep" changed to "keep""

Opus response: "Here is the corrected version:

Here's GPT-4 for good measure: "Here's the corrected version:

Only Opus correctly identifies that something going wrong is a hypothetical future event, and not something it should be discussing as having happened in the past.
