>. It can transport a payload of 363 tons and costs around five million - which comes out to around 14k per ton of payload.

Did the unnamed author divide the price of the truck to the weight of a single load? If so, ignoring that it's not specifying a distance and hence the 1:2 cost ratio may be highly inaccurate, why? Is that some industry standard? It would be weird not taking into account amoritization cost/period too.

Finally, in conclusion, what do "techies" get wrong?
"AI", what we used to call "ML" should be able to solve this, at least 10 years ago.
You may want to double check that the historic buildings you see in historic districts are actually, uhh, historic. Historic building codes have been around for hundreds of years in some areas and many of the buildings are rebuilds and ones that didn’t fit the mold have been rebuilt.

Not that modern concrete architecture is not a blight on our cities, but not all historic buildings were originally as charming as we may see them today.
I wonder if that translates into anything that Apple can be pushed into? Government surveillance aside, does the existence of additional marketplaces strongarm Apple into rolling back any of those features?

There has been a bit of suggestion that a powerful competitor, running their own marketplace might be able to force Apple's hand to do something it hasn't done up until now. If Meta runs their own Marketplace and offers Instagram only through that store, I don't think they gain any actual API differences - only a different set of EULA terms for distribution maybe?

I can imagine this one being really annoying as you are probably required to go through the entire app review process again (so they can make sure you didn't sneak anything cool in there)
What would have been really cheaper is if when Russia told NATO not to offer MAPs to Ukraine and Georgia in 2008, claiming that doing so would lead to regional instability while refraining would support peace, NATO had thanked them for their input and done the opposite, rather than complying.

Over a decade of unchecked Russian aggression before the 2022 Russian escalation in Ukraine made constraining that aggression more expensive, but still less so than it would be with additional Western appeasement.
But how could this possibly be correct if the route is correct within the context of the client side code which uses history API to route, which the server knows nothing about? Else you’re going back to the days of hash routes which nobody likes.
> a lot of people assumed (high interest rates = slowing economy)

A fair assumption. It is extremely likely that the economy is slower than it would have been if interest rates remained low. Things were starting to get extremely hot – which is why we saw higher interest rates arrive in reaction.

There was a lot of concern floating around that rates would overcorrect (which, to be fair, may still prove to be the case – it is still early days), leading to an economy slowing more than needed, but the so-called "soft landing" was always the goal. Explicitly so. The status quo is in quite in line with what we were hoping to see come out of the higher rates, slowing the economy just enough, but not too much.
> Things like "I'll send the message, and if I don't hear back within x minutes, I'll send this other message".

I assume you don't want to wait with a x minute timeout (and meantime not do anything). You can manage this in three ways really:

a) you could spawn an actor to send the message and wait for a response and then take the fallback action.

b) you could keep a list (or other structure, whatever) of outstanding messages and timeouts, and prune the list if you get a response, or otherwise periodically check if there's a timeout to process.

c) set a timer and do the thing when you get the timer expiration message, or cancel the timer if you get a response. (which is conceptually done by sending a message to the timer server actor, which will send you a timer handle immediately and a timer expired message later; there is a timer server you can use through the timer module, but erlang:send_after/[2,3] or erlang:start_timer/[3,4] are more efficient, because the runtime provides a lot of native timer functionality as needed for timeouts and what not anyway)

Setting up something to 'automatically' do something later means asking the question of how is the Actor's state managed concurrently, and the thing that makes Actors simple is by being able to answer that the Actor always does exactly one thing at a time, and that the Actor cannot be interrupted, although it can be killed in an orderly fashion at any time, at least in theory. Sometimes the requirement for an orderly death means it may mean an operation in progress must finish before the process can be killed.
Something is very wrong with your iPad storage. My Apple Music (also mostly unused) takes up a grand total of 28 MB, of which 23.5 MB is the app.
Maybe this is just me, but combining exercise with commute has never been practical for me. I still cycle to work, but I don't do it for exercise, only because it happens to be the fastest method in my present circumstances.

But still using it as an example, on my way to work I take the easiest, least hilly route to avoid any sweating as possible. On the way back, I take the most downhill route possible because I still want to wear the same pieces of clothing (say, a jacket) without having to wash it daily. In short, I don't go all out. Result - I don't lose weight at all nor has my physical fitness improved much.

Versus if I engaged in "pointless supplementary exercise", I do go all out, and after 30 minutes I'm all drenched in sweat.

My present circumstances don't allow it, but I imagine if I could drive the same distance to work, I would save about 30-60 minutes which I could in theory use to engage in an all-out workout.
I wholeheartedly agree. I'm trying to get involved with this project and thought that it was an effort in the right direction. Appreciate the insights.

If they let me I'll get to work on the "hard part."
Apple really shouldn't have used a monopoly strategy to block another, more theoretical monopoly from happening.
Hi! If the static output of your Next.js project is `./build` then add `&& jampack ./build` to your build command.

If the site is 100% static then it should play nice. If it's hydrated with JS: results may vary. Let me know!
You say you have no experience with deep learning. Start by learning about "traditional" deep learning models, then move on to LLMs. Learning LLMs before deep learning is like learning algebra before addition.

"Deep Learning with Python, Second Edition" by Google's François Chollet is a pretty good intro, and also touches on LLMs / generative models towards the end.

Not mentioned in TFA, but here's a fun Houdini fact I learned recently: shortly before he died, he commissioned H.P. Lovecraft and another writer to collaborate on a book debunking religious miracles. It was to be called The Cancer of Superstition, and apparently an outline and a few chapters did get written, but after his death Houdini's widow didn't want to pursue the project.

Seems like mostly PRC is playing catchup, and if past performance any indicator, it'll take half the time for them to throw up X times more capacity to the point where current SpaceX lead won't mean much at all except politics behind orbit rights. IMO SpaceX more like EVs / shipbuilding, PRC already pretty decent at rocketry from MIC and communications tech - putting up stupid space launch capacity to throw their own mega constellations is a much easier/quicker catchup than commercial aviation or semiconductors that's mired in global geopolitics.
Was that a heroic dose? I've had some strong visuals, but I've never been blasted into full blown hallucinations on LSD.

Too risky
I used a Surface Pro X for a while[1] and I don't really feel that Linux is more mature than Windows in terms of day-to-day desktop usage if I'm being honest. Windows on ARM worked surprisingly well on Win10 and I guess it works even better in Win11 (haven't tried, moved back to Mac).

The best insight you will get, without taking the trip yourself is going to come from reading Huxley's "Doors of Perception". A large enough dose will give you all sorts of interesting insights into your own thinking.

The closest your going to come to this, is the first time you watch the film "The Game", assuming you pay close enough attention and are tuned into it as a film and the characters in it. However it pales in comparison to the real thing.
Nice project, congrats! Several usability issues:

Page doesn’t really load/slow to load.

Bootstrap is a very dated look now.

Regenerate button shouldn’t be there at the start since it does nothing.

Not sure why there is an ascii image of an actress? That’s not a good favicon and doesn’t seem to be a reason for it being there

when i asked for a favicon it gave me a tiled list of 25 favicons (update i see the point now. you allow the user to manually crop? why not just return 25 separate favicons?)

it takes an unreasonably long time to generate

The loading spinner stopped and i was faced with a black screen for about 20 seconds, thinking it was broken

Step 2 “crop and resize shows a tab with no favicon, and then put the (25) favicons in the wrong place, over “ipsum”. This section could be called “Preview” and should only show when needed.

refresh canvas button should be automatic, no need for a button

create favicon should just say download favicon (it’s very laggy too)

upgrade to pro takes me to some weird error page

the favicon you chose for the site isn’t good or readable

I hope these aren’t too harsh! I think if you fix these it will help a lot with your skills. This actually helped me a lot giving me a new idea for a logo! The two main things you should focus on are speed of the site and a cohesive UX flow. Good luck with your mission!

In general, LSD is something that I wouldn't recommend to just anyone because the outcome of a trip depends on your mental strength. You can definitely rewire your brain, which can be a good or bad thing depending.

There are plenty of tips online, but two that have stuck with me are:

* remember that it will end

* have something with you that you've had for a long time, because it'll be an anchor.

Neither of those thoughts/things may matter until they do.

No. There are over a billion road vehicles on Earth, but they do not change how the Earth appears from space (even accounting for the fact that ~half are blocked by clouds at any given time). A few tens of thousands of Starlink satellites will not change the Earth's visual appearance.
> This is hilarious because absolutely the same argument could be applied to most of Europe getting closely integrated economically with Germany through organisations such as the European Coal and Steel Community, European Economic Area, European Union. Germany is a nation with a long history of imperialism and autocracy, why did they do it? Was France stupid to risk depending on a country that invaded them thrice in the last century?

There's a major, major difference between postwar (West) Germany and post-USSR Russia: France, the UK, and US all had troops stationed in Germany with enough manpower to crush any aggression on the part of the Germans. Obviously there were never troops of another country stationed in Russia to keep them down and reform the country's government, so the autocracy, oligarchy and imperialism continued.

> The general hope was that economic integration will lead to closer relations and liberalisation in Russia (like it did in most of Eastern Europe). It sadly didn't happen, but it wasn't that out of the question.

That's the line we're typically fed but that was only going to happen in minor/middle power countries. I think they knew this at the time but didn't have any real way to do anything else with regards to Russia and China, and of course, the market demanded an unending flow of cheap natural gas and electronics, and who is the post-WWII world order to deny the shareholders?

> Yes, because the US was doing this even when Russia was on its best behaviour, so it really really looked like nobody in the US had remembered to update the "who to be scared of" instructions. Now they have and they won't fucking shut up about China, which is annoying, same as it was back when it was about Russia.

Russia was never on its best behavior. It was flattening Grozny with artillery fire in the 90s. Oligarchs had subverted the transfer to the market economic system through voucher dilution/theft. Government openly collaborated with the Bratva. Corruption was rampant. Former KGB agents responsible for being the iron fist of single-party totalitarianism through imprisonment and murder were free to place themselves in the halls of power and undermine budding democratic traditions through false flag attacks and violations of human rights in the open.

And now, we see this with China. People look at a country that spent the first decade-and-a-half of its digital transformation hacking international targets and wonder why no one wants Huawei telecoms infrastructure or TikTok installed on half of the phones in the country.

Does Starlink work in Norway or Alaska?

This is not fair compare. Motorola and Intel that time outperforms first RISC machines, because have much better silicone level (even when logic level was not best).

But game consoles are fair, as they was specialized machines, made with good silicone and with large scale production.

On the same time, I'm not agree to consider 68020 as genuine CISC machine - I think it is more fair to consider it hybrid - RISC-optimized CISC (or, as it named on rumor talks - "mini on one chip").

I think, genuine CISC machines was most S/360 and some mini-machines, like Alto in which was documented feature to develop your own microcode (in S/360 it was marketed feature with high value, because with custom microcode, 360 could run software compiled for older hardware like 1401 or 7xx/7xxx series).

And I agree with you, RISC achieve market adoption, when micro-processor (one-chip CPU) market share become so large, that these games with compatibility with old machines become non interest financially.

So, as resume, I say, RISC machines are not players of CISC market, they are essentially players of micro-market, which in mid 1980s was not much more than games and terminals for mainframes and mini's (micro with, say 128k RAM is considerable to run accounting for small business but impossible to do more).

In 1990s, RAM become so cheap, micro's swallowed mini's market, and appear clouds, so become possible to run large enterprise accounting on micro hardware. And at that moment, created Alpha, and than AMD-K8, which was essentially Alpha with hardware translator of x86 instructions to RISC.

So, after all these adventures, RISC entered market via back door :)

This looks like it covers several use cases people are picking the SSG and its plugins to handle in the first place, especially if they're picking Astro or Eleventy.

Is there a reason for preferring them as a separate post-build step? I guess the tradeoff is faster rebuilds when you're developing vs the possibility that you miss subtle bugs resulting from introducing stuff like width declarations for images?
Here is a summary of the very short resolution as describe by the UN news page https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/03/1147931:

* The Council would demand “an immediate ceasefire for the month of Ramadan respected by all parties leading to a permanent sustainable ceasefire”

* It would also demand “the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, as well as ensuring humanitarian access to address their medical and other humanitarian needs” and “that the parties comply with their obligations under international law in relation to all persons they detain”

* Other provisions would have the Council emphasize “the urgent need to expand the flow of humanitarian assistance to and reinforce the protection of civilians in the entire Gaza Strip.

* In this regard, the draft would have the Council reiterate its demand for the lifting of all barriers to the provision of humanitarian assistance at scale, in line with international humanitarian law as well as resolutions 2712 (2023) and 2720 (2023).

The resolution it self is up on the UN web page. However I’m having problems accessing it.

I’m not so sure, if you’re serving massive files this is not perhaps the option you want. If your SPA is so big you can’t handle a container that has its app code and assets in RAM perhaps it’s also too large.

I see it as a pragmatic trade off between speed and RAM. Even free tier EC2 instance should have enough RAM to handle pretty much any SPA even if the text content is duplicated (compressed) especially seeing as with a unikernel you have no RAM used up by Linux processes.
That has nothing to do with pyenv.

Also, this really isn't a problem -- just blast out of the old venv, make a new one with a new version, and you're good.

> But coroutines _are_ an option for parallelism, and an especially effective one in the I/O-bound world.

Parallelism means that code executes simultaneously (on different CPUs). Coroutines (on a single threaded executor) don't do that.

> The parallelism comes from the OS handling I/O scheduling for the coroutines instead of the application code.

Where exactly is the parallelism that is enabled by coroutines? Coroutines are nothing more than resumable functions.

When it comes to I/O performance, threads vs. async is really a false dichotomy. What we should be comparing is

1. threads + blocking I/O

2. non-blocking I/O (select, poll, epoll)

3. asynchronous I/O (io_ring on Linux, IOCP on Windows)

Coroutines may only provide syntactic sugar for 2. and 3.
This describes much of my own experience, but I didn't know it might be attributable to ADHD.

Is this something you figured out through introspection of your own experience or is there something you read that showed you it was ADHD that was the root cause? Are you formally diagnosed?

The economy that Volcker hiked into wasn't nearly as leveraged (because the debt had been inflated away / soft defaulted upon). A small rate increase on a lot of debt vacuums up as much money as a large increase on a small amount of debt. However, the duration on most household/corporate debt at the moment is such that it hasn't felt the sting of rate increases yet. As usual, it's complicated.
Lol, thank you. Fixed.
I disagree with the guy you're replying to, but he brings up a fair point to a certain extent.

Here in the US, we view China as the bigger bad. In Europe, it's Russia. And it makes sense. Worst comes to worst, it's going to be Poles, Germans, Turks, etc dying on the battlefields in Eastern Europe, not that many Americans. We'll be dying in the Pacific or North Asia instead.

It'll be for the best if our European allies succeed at taking over continental responsibilities, allowing us to shore up a similar consensus in Asia.
