I'm not denying the effect is impressive, but assuming you're referring to the surface ripples/capillary waves, would a 1D cellular automaton be beyond the abilities of the NES to calculate in real time?

The synchroscope is a very important gauge for any power plant:

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

In short, every generator is also an electric motor. When you connect a generator/motor to the grid, it begins rotating in sync with every other generator/motor on the grid. The grid will supply any amount of power required to speed up or slow down as needed, to keep everything locked together.

The initial synchronization process may be quite violent, depending on the size of the initial discrepancy.

The synchroscope is the gauge that shows the phase and frequency difference between the generator and the grid. Before closing the switch, operators align everything as closely as possible to ensure a smooth transition.
things are still a bit messy with integer overflow

No, they aren't messy, they're fully defined. Integer overflow in safe Rust works just like Java: the numbers wrap around. It's totally defined.

You can, optionally, also enable a runtime check for this wraparound. This is usually enabled for debug builds. There is of course a performance cost to doing this.

Or just simply...Open the AI. Which they still can. Because everyone is evidently supposed to reap the rewards of this nonprofit -- from the taxpayers/governments affected by supporting nonprofit institutions, to the researchers/employees who helped ClopenAI due to their nonprofit mission, to the folk who donated to this cause (not invested for a return), to the businesses and laypeople across humanity who can build on open tools just as OAI built on theirs, to the authors whose work was hoovered up to make a money printing machine.

The technology was meant for everyone, and $80B to a few benefactors-turned-lotto-winners ain't sufficient recompense. The far simpler, more appropriate payout is literally just doing what they said they would.

I have a PhD in computer engineering, focusing on operations research (OR). I specialize in developing solutions to OR problems and advising on OR matters for startups. In other words, I can translate real-world problems into mathematical models that can be solved via integer programming, constraint programming, or other optimization methods. I can provide solutions for any type of problem you might have related to OR: scheduling, routing, etc.

Recent work includes an optimization model for the selection of indexes in Postgres: https://pganalyze.com/blog/index-advisor-v3

No, Go definitely has enums. It is sum types (that some people have recently started calling enums) that Go lacks.

Using batteries to drive turbo pumps for rocket engines has already been tried. The weight of the batteries makes the overall rocket inefficient:

"In comparison to turbo-pumped rocket cycles such as staged combustion and gas generator, an electric cycle engine has potentially worse performance due to the added mass of batteries, but may have lower development and manufacturing costs due its mechanical simplicity, its lack of high temperature turbomachinery, and its easier controllability." -- Wikipedia
I can't really think how this could be done.

Other languages either substitute enum with primitive type, string, or use strong type system tricks.

Go do duck typing, .. so..

Other than that, lead and its common compounds as used in paint are solids and are ordinarily pretty good at staying put. Unless you chew on the wall or the paint is damaged, lead painted surfaces may not be immediate hazards if you leave them alone.

Yes if the for-profit was the entire operation, I think you could definitely have issues with the IRS. It would ultimately depend on your ability to convince either the IRS or a judge that there is some purpose to the nonprofit apart from giving investors in the for-profit side tax deductions.
Apple has also added PWA to Desktop Safari in the latest OS release (which seems to work well for Tana). So their Safari team is putting some continuing effort behind PWA in general.

I have used that approach before with sentry. It was a non-issue. It depends on nature of the project of course, we had a system that was running every second so if it failed it generated a lot of data..
Technically ES did introduce types already: in the "lost version" ES4. Typescript's syntax was partially inspired from ES4 and while not "compatible" with the previous type system there is more compatibility in the syntax than you might expect.

The Type Annotations [0] proposal that TC-39 (in charge of ES standardization) has kept in front of them (at Stage 1 so far) takes the "Python approach" of standardizing the syntax but not the type system still leaving that to external tools (in part because of the lessons from the mistakes of ES4 and the type system that was standardized but never really adopted). The proposal basically assumes that most types will (still) be in the Typescript type system (and would still need Typescript or compatible tool to type check) and maximal (but not complete) compatibility with Typescript syntax is a goal of the proposal.

But you don't don't have to take my word on that, the FAQ at the bottom of that Type Annotations proposal is well written and quite detailed.

“Anywhere that accepts an Operation Enum type will just as happily accept an int.”

Hey! Just like in C! I digress, I think the issue is that the author comes from another language where enums are a thing. In go, they aren’t. Enums should be types. Types that don’t infer to an int. Use an interface. Be happy.

Here is the flaw in your plan; it was a flaw in my plan too. In more naive days, I thought that too. Then at some point we realize what you did: people don't do good things, and you aren't going to change most of them.

That's when we can take a big step forward, and learn what true altruism, generosity, and most of all, what love is: It's caring for and doing good for people who don't 'deserve' it; who act like jerks and idiots, who even do bad things. Anyone who has done good in their life learns this lesson. That is love, the only love in any meaningful sense.

That truth is well known, but not always widely discussed. Look at the Gospels in Christianity, and everything that says we are all sinners. Look at stories of prophets in every culture: ignored, attacked, lynched. More contemporaneously, do you think people who do great good, like Washington or Gandhi or MLK, did not realize what you did about human nature? All those people, those religions, those philosophers - they all know. When Jefferson wrote 'All men are created equal, and are endowed with inalienable rights', he knew who he was writing about. When the framers of the Constitution wrote about forming 'a more perfect union', they knew that would be done would be 'of the people, by the people, and for the people' (as Lincoln said later) - and they knew about people.

And it's about you too. You're a sinner, and an asshole, and ignorant too, just like me. If that's not love, if love excludes those people, who loves you and me? Remember that ancient prayer: 'Forgive us our trespasses ...'.

is there any further information on why Rust and other recent languages have started using `enum` to refer to sum types? I don't use Rust or TypeScript (edit: apparently TS doesn't have this, my memory is bad) or any of those languages and it's been very strange to see this redefinition occur

They were basically negotiating in public. I think the EC probably realized that the DMA as currently written is flawed and producing outcomes they don't want, and this episode basically highlighted it to them. They probably told Apple there won't be any enforcement against only Safari having it, because the alternative is worse. A basic principle is that you are very unlikely to compel Apple to engineer anything unless they choose to, and you would most likely lose in the EU courts if you tried to. Any regulation that doesn't factor that in is going to be doomed to fail.

Because it's technically a separate app in ios system, with all storage separation, permission… etc. enforced by the system itself. And ios don't actually allow any app to install another app unlike Android. The pwa install process is a somewhat backdoor build into safari and ios for this specific usage and never made public at first place.

To make this work with another browser. They would need to fix this, make a safe public api for it, and publish it in new ios version. (Which they think it's way too much work and rather want to get rid of it instead)

Typescript has actual enums. They behave just like Go's (for better or worse).

Honestly I think that RVs are kind of a worst-case for batter power, and range extender trailers are unlikely because EVs get progressively less efficient as the battery capacity increases (increasing battery capacity increases the weight). When you're starting with something as heavy as an electric RV, attaching even more weight seems unlikely to pay off.

(Now I'm curious if the relationship between range and battery capacity is merely sublinear or if it actually peaks at some point i.e. there is a maximum theoretical range beyond which increasing battery capacity reduces range)
Maybe it is a tactical move to create a precedent were the EU tells Apple "in this case this is ok to require execution by safari"

The last line in the article jumped out at me: “A lot of folks … they’re kind of DIY-ing it until we can get the level of public service that we really need.”

I am through "A Paradise Built in Hell" right now, and that, combined with having spent 6 years in a (small) town leadership position makes me appreciate the unfortunate consequences of thought like that last line.

It feels like leaning hard into capitalist democracy rather than socialist democracy. The idea that things don't get done unless someone gets off their butt, puts a line item in the budget and makes sure someone is getting paid to do it not because they want to but because their compensation is adequate is destined to fail in really unfortunate ways.

Part of the book referenced above is all about the failure of the "organized" parts of government in times of crisis. It turns out, most people in community want things to be better, but learning that the "city" or "county" will do it for you if you just pay your taxes kind of neuters the impulse to be a part of your community. Instead of cleaning up the road side, people end up with book clubs or art committees, because someone's getting paid $12/hr to clean up the road for you. It's not a great look, and has disastrous consequences when things go really bad.

> The histrionical descriptions of other people's takes are like nails on chalkboard and kinda gross. (bloody murder?)

Claiming that Apple is trying to “kill” PWAs is in and of itself histrionic. Especially when behavioral evidence that clearly points to the opposite is completely ignored and the bad faith intents are attributed wholly based on “vibes”. My categorizing that as screaming bloody murder isn’t an escalation in rhetoric[0] in the slightest.

> Jen Simmons isn't a "rock star."
It’s a figure of speech within the industry, granted, it typically also implies big ego issues, so perhaps the term isn’t so suitable when it comes to Simmons.

> Hiring someone with a lot of Twitter followers

Trying to diminish someone’s accomplishments and relevance within an industry by pretending they “just have a lot of Twitter followers” does nothing to refute my arguments. She’s one of 82 web developers with a Wiki bio and one of 177 programmers, that alone signifies notability.

Point is that that she’s a high profile programmer and web developer and those come at a premium. That, plus the significant efforts made in the last four years to not only support PWAs but also improve standards, runs counter to the notion that Apple has ill will towards PWAs.

While she has spearheaded a lot of the investment in PWAs, for the purposes of this debate I only brought her up to emphasize Apple’s investments in making improvements.

Even with Simmons out of the equation there’s still four years of significant engineering efforts to reconcile.

> doesn't preclude the company from stopping doing something.
You’re begging the question here. Without you substantiating the implication that Apple has stopped improving PWAs, you’re just throwing around empty words.

Nevertheless, it’s clear Apple hasn’t stopped their efforts on PWAs, given that the next Safari update will, again, include a slew of improvements to the benefit of PWAs as can be seen in the Safari Technology Preview release notes[1].

I’m amenable to debate this further, provided you put in some effort into make a credible case with substantiated arguments and you can keep the tone policing to yourself.

>and are seemingly choosing to ignore productivity studies that show their decisions don't make sense.

I also don't buy this. Companies are all profit oriented and don't like leaving money on the table if research shows there is left over money on the table.

They can't monetize control but they can monetize money. If research would show they would make more profits using AWS instead of Azure(example pulled out of my ass for simplicity), they would immediately switch to it.

So if research would be universal and clear cut that working 32 hours outcompetes those companies working 40 hours, then at least a significant proportion of companies would be using this new way of work as leverage to outcompete their competitors working 40 and beat them at profits and market share, and then that would become the new norm as it's the proven winning strategy, since that's how competition in capitalism works.

But so far that's not been the case.
