Weed can be classified as a depressant, stimulant, or hallucinogen (but never an opiate), according to the University of Maryland.

There's power-creep to consider. Modern weed isn't the weed of the 70s after all the cross-breeding. I've read about high schoolers acquiring cannibus-induced psychosis.

These tend to try the top _n_ exploits on common ports. In fact, a little obscurity rids oneself from common attacks. I usually move my Wordpress admin access to a different port and URL and that really does stop scripts from trying exploits all day long. (Of course, I make sure everything else is set for security, too.)
Yet thousands of people learned C++ well enough to use it in a professional setting, so surely << "Do as I say, not as I do" is known to be poor pedagogy. >> does not hold in the general case.

> If you find that expert practitioners don't do the things you think students should be doing, it suggests that something is wrong and needs fixing

It does not and is a very naïve world view. In any trade expert practitioners' way of working is wildly different from what you would learn in a classroom (and generally makes said student's hair raise on their head when they see. This is not too relevant with C++ though as the std implementation "ugliness" is mainly driven by material constraints.

Besides in general in programming this is not even possible. Like, from your argument one wouldn't be able to learn how to use the Win32 API or Cocoa API since the operating systems using them are closed-source and you cannot see how they are implemented & used by the teams who develop these APIs.

I think you could interpret this as "you need to know, personally, the party you're handing this off to, and make reasonable judgments as to whether or not they could be easily compromised by bad actors".

Like, meeting someone at several dev conferences should be a requirement at the very least.
Perhaps the situation would improve if it were easier/more normalised to offer to pay the core developer to fix the bug that affects you. If that were the case, it would boil down to put up or shut up.

This wouldn't be entirely without downside though, as there could be a risk that the project ends up getting steered by whoever has the most money, which may be at odds with what the broader community gets from the project. That's difficult to avoid whenever Open Source developers get paid, unfortunately. If it were limited to bug-fixes I think the risk would be slim. I'm not sure if any projects have tried this.
The default forward action in Gmail sends it as content. Forwarding as an attachment is a well-hidden option in the web UI and I just looked in the Gmail mobile app and could not find a way to do it there.
I agree completely, well said. It's probably 1 in 10 (in line with Sturgeon's Law) but there are some devs out there for whom their code is like poetry, and reading it is a genuine pleasure. For those, types and annotations and such really do add clutter and make it worse.

You just reinvented the "it's open source but we charge for support" model which has been so well known for so long that it was a line in the movie Antitrust (2001).
Yeah, I'm having trouble seeing how Rust/Nim/Gleam can be written in a logic programming style (like Prolog or Datalog).

At minimum, that means there are _two_ paradigms: logic programming and "beyond paradigms"....which sorta means that we're not really beyond paradigms now, are we?

I think the reality is that certain previously-niche paradigms became cool again, and folks started grabbing off some of the most-visible pieces of those paradigms (pattern-matching, ADTs, map/reduce/filter, maybe even a pipeline operator) and adapting them to other paradigms.
From my understanding, using triangle / shaders to do HPC has given way to a specific, more general purpose GPU programming paradigm which is CUDA.

Of course this knowledge is superficial and probably outdated, but if I'm not too far off base, it's probably more work to translate a general CUDA-like layer or CUDA libs to OpenCL.
Umm... Where to start?

It randomly won't connect to meetings on the PC. Calls drop regularly. Screen sharing sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. If I have joined on the phone so I can get audio working, it's a total crap shoot whether I can also open it using the PC client to see anything someone else is sharing. About half the time I have to join using the browser rather than the actual client. Nobody uses the actual team groups, the notifications of new messages appear in the activity section along with loads of other irrelevant things. It constantly pops up a window telling me I'm muted and when you close it, it pops up abother one. I could go on...
There are real alternatives. Elixir's Nx is pretty nice.
I've owned an RX-7 and an RX-8. They definitely didn't have flat torque curves. Even the twin sequential setup on the FC was far from flat.

But even if it was, that was the most powerful stock configuration made and it topped out at ~184 lb/ft. :)

Torque was never the strength of this motor.
This is kind of similar to the way Wolfram Mathematica highlights code. If everything is fine, everything is mostly black. Color is used while editing to highlight the "Head" and brackets of the expression being changed. It is also used to bring attention to missing/excessive parameters or invalid option names.
As hard as this story is to read, I remain convinced that we must be sovereign over our own lives, and should be legally entitled to end it if we so choose.
You don't need to automate git commits to fake the timestamps; just change system clock to the desired time, make the commit and then reset the clock to local time when you're done. It all happens on the local machine so the timestamps of commits should be considered completely untrusted information.
1) Not everyone (current and potential future maintainers) has the time to go to dev conferences.

2) Simply meeting IRL is a terrible proxy for credibility.
How does Ollama distribute these models? The downloads page on the Llama website, https://llama.meta.com/llama-downloads/, has a heading that reads:

> Request access to Llama

Which to me gives the impression that access is gated and by application only. But Ollama downloaded it without so much as a "y".

Is that just Meta's website UI? Registration isn't actually required?
Then you would create a Dockerfile that uses the digest SHA you want as a parent image, add your packages, build a new image from that Dockerfile with an updated tag, and push the image into the registry. a digest will be created for it once uploaded into its registry.

If you are not uploading images into registries (why?), you can use "docker save" to turn that image into a tarball and then checksum the tarball.
Yeah. I eliminated a persistent bot attack on a webapp in minutes by simply adding a very easy question on user signup (like "what's 1+1?")

Security through obscurity is an overused concept: it doesn't work against determined humans, but on the greater internet, when your adversary are bots, it is extremely effective.
If you're able to purchase a separate GPU, the most popular option is to get an NVIDIA RTX3090 or RTX4090.

Apple Mac M2 or M3's are becoming a viable option because of MLX https://github.com/ml-explore/mlx . If you are getting an M series Mac for LLMs, I'd recommend getting something with 24GB or more of RAM.
This hits all the right notes for me. I recently bought a full set of SA Retro keycaps for my WASD CODE v2 (in blues), on my Mac. While pricey, I love them. I get warm fuzzies every time I sit down at it. I use this board on my Mac, and out of a dozen mech's I've tried, I just don't think it gets any better than a WASD.

The article also mentions new buckling spring boards. I have a Mini M from Unicomp on my work computer. The action doesn't seem as crisp as I remember on actual Model M's from back in the 80's, but given that it's supposed to be the same internals, made on literally the same dies, I have to chalk it up to memory. I like it too.

For "just" $110, I will probably buy one of these. I don't have a Kailh-based board, though I've like the feel of that brand of switches in various testers I have.
Shouldn't this have been done in a library instead of a specific project? Then others could also profit from it.
The tactics of Russian operatives have always been more nuanced than simply "eliminating the adversary". Typically, such extreme measures are reserved for traitors, like Sergei Skripal or the helicopter pilot who defected to Ukraine.

In certain instances, they opt for psychological warfare techniques, similar to those employed by the Stasi in East Germany during the 1970s and 1980s.

What does hook mean in this context? Is it some kind of plugin or addon to MPV or can MPV do that out-of-the-box?
Sadly some think Flagging is for stuff they don't agree with.

From the guidelines:
"Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, flag it. Don't feed egregious comments by replying; flag them instead. If you flag, please don't also comment that you did."

Even more sad is that is still flagged...
I don't agree about the cognitive load, people are different and the idea that there is a "single developer mind" is completely wrong. For example, YMMV, if you look at LINQ in .NET is a natural query language over different paradigms. I don't think it adds a cognitive load.

And, we should also think about the way that computer science and/or software engineering is studied. If there were a better teaching approach about multiparadigm thinking there would be less cognitive load. My argument is that when you work professionally you don't spend the same cognitive requirements that studying at university because even unconsciously you assume that you know most of the material.

What I agree is that you would not find many people who are profficient in Haskell/OCaml/Lisp at the same time of imperative languages. You can know both but it is rare to work interchangeably in both. Again, I think that part of this is how we learn computer science and that new pedagogic ways could help to be at least good in both.

My personal frustration with logic implementations like Prolog is that the promise on focusing in the "what" instead of in the "how" is not fullfiled. I think that SMT solvers like Z3 are great in this topic at the expense of narrowing the problem space.
> Like, meeting someone at several dev conferences should be a requirement at the very least.

This is utterly and completely unfeasible. Most open source maintainers, especially those that are struggling and are pressured to hand-off maintenance, don't have the time, means and will to travel to meet up with prospective co-maintainers, not just once but multiple times.

In practice it would just result in projects getting abandoned, the prospective co-maintainer starting a fork, and everyone switching to use the fork.
How can this be a joke if there are companies that actually work like this?

I agree, I just don't want this right to be tied to any perverse financial motivations: e.g. a nurse walking around an overwhelmed and understaffed hospital, calmly asking anyone if they want to an injection.
I don't think that #8 implies that projects should stop accepting contributions from Asian-sounding names. To me it means that people should be more careful who they give access. It doesn't matter if it was China or some other state or organization pretended to be China, the problem is that people don't expect that open source contributor wouldn't act in altruistic way, but can be a malicious entity.

> I don’t disagree on any of your technical points. But I also think for practical purposes you’re missing the forest here. I agree with the sentiment of the article - I think the big trend in general purpose PLs is a blend of multiple classical paradigms.

You’re not wrong. That may even be the sentiment of the article. But the article certainly doesn’t phrase it that way — it’s saying that modern programming languages are ‘beyond paradigms’. That’s clearly wrong, and that’s what I’m arguing against.
> If you're writing something that will run on someone's local machine I think we're at the point where you can start building with the assumption that they'll have a local, fast, decent LLM.

I don't believe that at all. I don't have any kind of local LLM. My mother doesn't, either. Nor does my sister. My girl-friend? Nope.
I never heard of anyone around me required to do a drug test for work. May be different for people carrying guns, like police and hunters, but that's because of gun license requirements.

A drug test may be legal, or suggested, when there is reasonable suspicion someone was high during work hours. Maybe air traffic controllers and similar professions need to be evidently clean. Otherwise I don't think drug tests are legal in Germany. Even asking about consumption is illegal in most cases.
LLMs have shown some limited ability to generalize.

(Opinion) I think internally, they record how closely 2 words are in meaning based on the training data.

If everyone uses similar language to describe different problems, then the LLM should be able to at least act like it’s generalizing
Yes you are the exception.
Haha, if you want to go with the food analogy, I'd say they are discussing over meat sticks brands without having tasted a real steak.

Or better still, running a meat stick factory because doing the dishes is hard.

But I don't know if such analogies are any good other than being funny.
Lucky on the battery.. ours started swelling after about 7-8 years of heavy use, and made the trackpad click by itself. I think I also had to replace the display cable and one of the ram slots stopped working. Other than that it was a solid computer for about 10 years until we replaced it with a 2012 model, still in use.
You could have a valid point. It's a bit like the "people using two monitors are more productive" meme again...
That's exactly what Jia Tan did, but this failed a few times during rebases as well as with commits done from the web UI.

Vastly more powerful systems that are slower. Pretty much the only office tasks that are faster are crunching spreadsheets and sending data to a neighbouring office: everything from booting the machine to keying in data to making phone calls takes longer.
As it happens I also used to speak Indonesian, although I unfortunately forgot that somehow, despite learning it very early. German, Dutch and Afrikaans stuck since they're basically the same as you say.

I guess the racism is mostly due to growing up in Pretoria while apartheid was ending, and my stuffy old family and everyone around me was still using the k-word and stuff like that :/ Getting out of SA was my first real act of self-agency and I haven't regretted it for a second. On the contrary, when I look on social media at how the people who never left my hometown are doing... it's so grim over there. Left a sour taste for sure, and I don't mean to say that all Afrikaners are racist.

I don't want a capable if mercurial accountant.

I don't want an accountant who's optimizing around what most people think would work.

Surely optimizing your taxes is almost the definition of a worst-case scenario for an LLM? There is not only an authority which has the final say, but serious penalties for hallucinating.

How about trying to think about what would make better sense to attempt? This seems like a poorly thought-out idea on its face. Unless it's LLM-generated: 'what would be a good article about what GPT can do, what are people really interested about'.

at this point, the entire raison d'être of a lot of mainstream historians is to say "the previous guy categorised this slightly wrong!!" and hope this is seen as controversial enough it'll get talked about, but not controversial enough that they'll get branded a revisionist historian.

take "The Dark Ages" as a case in point. the available evidence has broadly been covered, because there is very little, so historians, who have to be seen to be doing something, have decided a rebranding is in order, with the vague notion that "The Dark Ages" is offensive to the very dead people of that era

It can vary a lot based on quality and size.

https://www.mineralminers.com/html/morlrgh.stm has some larger sizes, though nothing as large and crystal as the one in the video.

The linked one has the largest crystal - with inclusions - at 547.1 carats and $1094.

You can get smaller pieces in bulkish quantities for about $2 per carat at about 10 carat sizes (side note: its way to easy to find over priced "healing stones").
Jumping on this as a fellow idiot to ask for suggestions on having a local LLM generate a summary from a transcript with multiple speakers. How important is it that the transcript is well formatted (diarization, etc) first. My attempts have failed miserably thus far.

I don't show as colorblind on any of the tests, but on some monitors I can't distinguish this shade of green (https://htmlcolorcodes.com/colors/nyanza/) - or any paler green - from white. I worked at a place which used an alternating white/green background pattern to distinguish data rows (because company branding was a darker similar shade of green). Moreover the coding culture there was to favor manually created (not programmatic) data grids if the information was static, so it was manually colored. I was always getting asked, "why did you break the color pattern?" and my response would be, "what pattern?"

The funny thing is we were supposed to be making Ada compliant websites. But I guess it didn't prevent using the website, just an aesthetic choice. Or "can't see one specific shade of green" isn't a disability.

For what it's worth I also have never been entirely convinced "navy blue" is different from "black" and that the existence of navy blue as a distinct color isn't some elaborate joke being played on me. Someone gave me a pack of dress socks of all different shades of grey, black, and navy blue as a Christmas gift, and they meant well but do not know the apprehension they caused.
Per Wikipedia Eugene Debs was convicted of federal charges for defying a court injunction against the strike and served six months in prison. The world we live in means that someone is going to draw an equivalence from similar words for political gain. For e.g. prison is prison doesn't matter if it's for defying anti strike injunction or financial fraud. Likewise anti-war is anti-war be it a WW2 or Vietnam.
As April Fools jokes go, this is really well done.

Instruction-Following Evaluation for Large Language Models
> For the rest of us, another half-decade+ wait to get useful levels of compatibility especially on mobile

Chrome already ships it with their currently released browsers, so you get a significant amount of mobile traffic (about 42%) from Android devices supporting it already. I don't know what the current status of Blink on iOS is, but once that releases, you'll also get iOS users.

WebKit has reacted positively to the proposal, though the Github issue documenting their position refers to an internal radar ticket so I have no idea what their timeline is.

If you build for Chrome today, compatibility will only grow. Chrome doesn't do compression levels above a certain point but I doubt Safari and Firefox will be affected by a different limitation when support eventually lands.

Plus, if your web server is configured well, you can have the gzip/brotli/zstd content available right next to each other, and just follow the browser's preference to pick a supported compressed asset.

There really are no downsides here.
