A voluntary job is still voluntary even if someone wants to quit even if someone wants to strike. The choice is not to force them to work at the barrel of a gun.

The people did want to work the job until the situation changed. Are you honestly arguing that when your job situation changes the government can force you to continue working it, because they need you to? That is the very definition of communism. Your personal choice is eliminated for the good of the collective.

I don't have monthly data, but as an approximation here's a rough test where you make a one time investment of $1000, either all at once, or equally spaced over 2 or 5 years. This is simulated starting at each year from 1985 to 2005, and we count the number of years underwater starting 5 years after the first year (after $1000 has been put in for all 3 "strategies") up until 2023.

S&P:
once dca_2yr dca_5yr
count 25.0 25.0 25.0
mean 0.7 0.8 0.7
std 1.8 1.5 1.1
min 0.0 0.0 0.0
max 8.0 6.0 3.0

Nikkei:
once dca_2yr dca_5yr
count 25.0 25.0 25.0
mean 11.4 11.5 11.8
std 9.1 9.5 9.4
min 0.0 0.0 0.0
max 29.0 29.0 28.0

So investing at once, the max number of years underwater for the S&P was 8, versus 3 when "dca"ing over 5 years. The average number of years underwater (averaged over when you would've invested) is quite low, while for the Nikkei all metrics look much worse.
In particular the OC Bible was compiled as a synthesis of all the major existing religious traditions of the time after the Butlerian Jihad, which united humanity in revolt against the thinking machines. The resulting total ban on computational devices as heresy lead to the rise of the Spacing Guild’s monopoly on interstellar navigation.
Very anecdotal, but I’ve been told that one reason is your brain adapts the advent of the people you’re listening to, in order to make it easier for you to understand them.

Frankly unless you've considered it ahead of time and thought you'd handled it, IMO you want the error. What's the correct thing to do here? I don't think it's necessarily -365d, it might be, but if I was GP I'd be glad for the chance to consider it and decide what's correct - instead of it just blowing up or even worse silently going whichever way's wrong and undetected for a while.
Depends on the industry you are interested in entering.

My myopic view of the world has seen the general trend from C to C++ for realtime embedded applications. For example: in the Automotive Industry all the interesting automotive features are written in C++.
Even if it were:

There is no practical difference. "Nobody" will inspect the man page using a different viewer first. So if I download to disk and then view via man or directly via man is no difference.

A shell script one might inspect first using some viewer. While only few probably do.

Thank you for clarifying, and sorry for making that incorrect statement.
They're just spouting the various Russian justifications for the invasion. It gets tiresome when they can't even agree that Ukraine is a "real" country and that Russia is completely at fault.
There’s a fine balance with no right or wrong answer. Previous maintainers will appreciate if you spent literally more than a second trying to understand before you reach out to them, but for your own sanity you should know when it’s time to stop and call for help.

Not mentioned were code comprehension tools / techniques:

I used to use a tool called Source Navigator (written in Tcl/tk!) that was great at indexing code bases. You could then check the Call Hierarchy of the current method, for example, then use that to make UML Sequence Diagrams. A similar one called Source Insight shown below [1].

And oh, notes. Writing as if you're teaching someone is key.

Over the years, I got quite good at comprehending code, even code written by an entire team over years. For a brief period, I was the only person actively supporting and developing an algorithmic trading code base in Java that traded ~$200m per day on 4 or 5 exchanges. I had 35 MB of documentation on that, lol. Loved the responsibility (ignoring the key man risk :|). Honestly, there's a lot of overengineering and redundancy in most large code bases.

If you have a car made in the last few years, the ui on the display of the computer in the dash is most likely powered by Enlightenment Foundation Libraries aka EFL. If there is any lag or the touchscreen is not "pixel perfect", that's not Enlightenment's fault, in fact the Enlightenment project has gone way out of its way to make it very easy to not screw up graphics performance.

Personally I liked Enlightenment DR17 in the late 2000s. Nowadays I'm using i3 or Sway.

By definition, aren't those difficult questions to answer? Is there any reason to think the LLMs would succeed where humans have failed? I mean, I'm sure they would produce some output...but is a misleadingly-incorrect answer better than no answer to a thorny obscure question?
Usually, I start with the official docs. Most of the time they are starting with the basics, but non-video content can be skipped very easily.

Then it is always a good idea to read open source code. Look for not too big projects leading in the open source community. You can use trending github repositories[1] to find some interesting modern projects. Set the filter to the language of your choice.
Looking through the pull requests and issues can be enlightening.

Books (even if they tend to be outdated pretty fast) are a reliable source of knowledge, because they contain reviewed and thought through knowledge, if they are good.

The last step could be watching either professional youtube tutorials about specific topics or even live coding.

The full article is behind a paywall, but the abstract doesn't seem to say what you're saying. It does say:

1) Kids and parents have differing perceptions of the parenting style: "Birth-order and family-size differences were found in adolescents' achievement and perceptions of parenting style and parental involvement but not in parents' perceptions of parenting." Thus, your statement "the underlying fact that later children get a different parenting style" doesn't actually seem to be a fact.

2) Parenting style, whether it actually differed or not among children, didn't seem to explain the differences in archievement: "these parenting characteristics did not mediate the differences seen in achievement by birth order and family size."

Weston is mostly used for car entertainment systems, as a replacement for Windows CE.

It might be your natural affinity for learning other languages showing up in weird ways. Do you speak other languages? Have you tried to learn? Children learn language by listening and mimicking. Maybe you're still primed to do that.

Maybe it's a hereditary disposition. Are other family members good at learning languages? Music?
Apologies, by YOU I mean YOU as a human, not YOU as an individual. Like we all generally feel that the quantitative tests aren't enough. The capitalization was for emphasis for you to look at yourself and know that you're human and likely feel the same thing. Most people would say the stuff like IQ tests aren't enough and we can't pinpoint definitively why, as humans, WE (keyword change) just feel that way.

That feeling is what sets the bar. There's no rhyme or reason behind it. But humans are the one who make the judgement call so that's what it has to be.

Yeah, safetensors separates metadata and tensor data. The metadata is an offset reference to the tensor data that you are free to define yourselves. In that way, you can create files in safetensors format but the tensor data itself is paged aligned offsets.

In few lucky cases. In real life new feature is most likely change in behavior of already existing one and suddenly you have to do some heavy refactoring in numerous places.

Microlino boss: Most cars are far too big for what they're being used for
Well, Red-Black algos are supposed to be better at cache-locality, but I have an AVL-tree impl (ugg jokes, again: AVUL (ALV) is the "evil" tree of "forbidden" {carnal?} wisdom from The Garden of Eden, associated with Yggdrasil/Odin [a "pagan" God of Balance & Pleasure]) that has improved cache locality since its data nodes can be made to contain AvlTreeNode structure(s), and avoid copying any data, as users are made to provide node alloc/free function pointers to this C lib's Tree "constructor". This means, for real example, I have a command line option interpreter with const structures for each option, each node added to two AVL trees (to find by unicode codepoint and find by length prefixed unicode string name). C++ STL Map implementations can not conditionally generate code for const types and thus do needless coppies, whereas my C collections API causes 0 calls to malloc (vs STL's 2 mallocs per node insert). NodeAlloc is just pointer math to get at the apt AvlNode, NodeFree is NoOp.

Benchmarking the STL vs my AVL approach results in millions of times quicker cmd line opt interpretaion (for my gnu getopt replacement lib) due to reduction of pointer chasing...

And if I want to do something similar in C++ (overloading operator new), I have to instantiate multiple copies of the Tree code, one per each "class". What if I want to use my Sortable class with various allocators: OBJ cache, dynamic GC'd, static (no alloc, its in the .data section already)...? Well then I get N copies of EXACT SAME template code for no real reason, only differing in delete and new [con|de]structors. The cache-misses galore this causes isn't even fair to bench against the C w/ fn() ptr approach.

That’s really interesting to hear. I did a bunch of interviews with devs around real time multiplayer collab since I wanted some improvements there to things like screenheroand was surprised at how infrequently they actually did it. We focused on async sharing instead because of that. Would love to share what we have to get your thoughts, you sound like someone who might like what we’re doing too for sharing your knowledge and expertise to others in your dev team, if you were up for a quick chat, lmk or email me diamond@augmend.com.
I did, actually!

A couple date form fields on AWS had their date incorrectly set to 2024/02/28 instead of 2024/02/29. Not mission critical, but it is something :D.
These ones are the worst because you'd think they'd be so obvious at time of implementation. Maybe it's just me, I do a lot of comparisons and things like this always are top of mind for me.
One thing I realized after some rather ugly burn out a few years ago is that I mostly created my misery myself - there were demands and questions if I can take on some work but no psychopath managers, no deadlines that couldn't be moved.

I created most of the pressure myself - my biggest sin was working more hours than being paid because I wanted the project to succeed. It was never appreciated and only lead to be being angrily called on Sunday if something was broken - something my lazier 9 to 5 colleagues never experienced.

So I'd say instead of practicing no, first practice setting boundaries and practice organizing yourself.

Additionally a perverted mechanism came into play because I cared and wanted to improve the product at the time - the others kind of said: do if you like but that came without any real support and it lead to me being kind of laughed at as a hot air talker just because I was the only one that wanted to improve things.

Looking back I should have quit way earlier and of all things I shouldn't work overtime for free.

Having to say no could have been avoided if I had a good schedule that I could have used to prioritize the orders and giving the person making the demands an overview of my workload.

Watch out if there is some unhealthy inertia in your organization and especially be careful doing important silent work. It won't be thanked.

Either quit and look elsewhere or watch out that your workload is fair and similar to your colleagues even if that means to not solve that interesting problem because it's not your official job.

> its not about "usability", in general, though. do you think reddit is truly usable?

Um, apparently, yes?

Google searches were doing "+reddit" before reddit melted down. The content was super discoverable and searchable. Everything (including discord, slack, and the fediverse) is laughably bad on that front.

People switched from twitter and reddit to ... discord and slack. Mostly beause they handle identity and phone apps--apparently searchability and discoverability isn't that important. I'm one of the olds, so don't get why the fuck people want phone apps to pester them all the time, but apparently the youngs want this very, very badly.

So, yeah, apparently twitter and reddit were really quite usable for the vast majority of users.

I'm a big fan of the fact that reddit's meltdown caused a bunch of people to set up forums again. However, that's a lot of duplicated work for every single forum administrator.
That’s pretty smart. Might change the dynamic somewhat if they knew there was substantive resistance. But at the end of the day it’s pretty hard to beat regulatory capture unless you start threatening the politicians.
EV charger cables need to conduct hundreds of amps of current. You can't easily make them much longer without losing efficiency.
I'm in the camp of folks that think it confuses more than it helps. I'm glad there's still the option for those that are used to it, but too much of this kind of thing drives new users a little nuts.

It'd be interesting to provide an on-ramp for folks to progressively explore such things, but doing that accidentally is probably not it.

They're saying that likely, models of comparable size will perform worse (the paper claims as good)

But since they are (optimized up to 8 or 10x if packing terns beyond 2 bits, in practice it seems 3-5x considering larger other structures needed in memory) more memory efficient, the largest models can be that much larger.

And I have at some point inherited 5000+ files long legacy PHP code. I had to write Python program to parse that insanity to look for particular patterns and report those for manual fixing or do it automatically if possible. The example would be database access. That single software used 5 different methods to access it.

So no. I would not call C++ any special in this regards.
X11 was not initially developed for linux, but every major X11 platform -- Linux, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and FreeBSD -- uses Linux's graphics stack to display X11 at this point. It's been that way since the KMS/DRM introduction. I would say that X11 is not separate at all, today, regardless of its origins.

A simple fix would be to change it to a multiple of 4 (e.g. 124 years). Then it would fail every 100 years.
Fascinating - why does a LiDAR involve the date?
It’s unfortunate that the hashmap picked by the standards comittee (std::unordered_map) is both awkwardly named and not very performant. Still probably better than whatever was hacked up in 1998, but nowadays you can do much better for any case where performance actually mattered. Note, still don’t roll your own, but there’s plenty of options from e.g. Abseil or Facebook’s Folly.

I worked on a project a few years ago where all data was stored in hashmaps. Just swapping out std::unordered map for an optimized implementation of a robin hood hash map increased performance by something like 2x and cut memory usage in half on many larger test cases.

I don't think so. At least at the organizational level, I noticed that most companies try to screw workers, despite being in a country with one of the most protective labor laws. My former company did me dirty (I stayed only the trial period), my current company is fine but still not applying some of the laws.

When speaking of that with people the very large portion of them (like 90%) were like "keep it low", "that's how jobs are", etc. My own father mocked me when I spoke about fighting for my rights in my current company. One people encouraged me but added that they wouldn't have the courage to do it in my situation. It's astonishing how most people are carpets, ready to by walked on. Slaves who don't even entertain the thought of rising their voices.

Which brings me to the middle managers and why I think GP is right: most people just bend their head and accept to do whatever is thrown at them, of course surprised pikachu face happens when someone they no. Since managers manage slaves and slaves can't say no, mechanically it raises the question of the status of someone who is confident enough to stand for himself.
