>That assumes total victory by management over labor.

No, it assumes that companies can't pull money out of the ether. There definitionally isn't enough value produced by the collective labor of all the employees for them to each be paid more than their value.
Part of the appeal is the variety, both recreations of real tables and from-scratch originals. If you are looking for better physics, it isn't PinballFX you want but Visual Pinball. No simulation is going to be 100%, but the vpinball folks have built some very nice physics engines, the best apparently being those tables incorporating nfozzy physics.

Real pins are indeed insanely pricey, but you can still spend a lot of money on a vpin. The playfied display of choice these days is something like an 42" LG C2 OLED and you'll need to pair that with something on the order of a 3070Ti for smooth framerates on newer tables. The SSR audio mentioned in the article is another spendy item that use four Dayton Audio shakers that mount to the cabinet: the sound they transmit simulates the feel of a real ball rolling on a real table. Then there are motorized shakers, real plungers connected to analog sensors, anaglyph rendering to give you simulated 3D using passive glasses, etc.

The article also refers to a Way of the Wrench series on YouTube that will give you a great idea what goes into one of these things these days. Watch it for the vpin build, stay for all the things you'll learn about woodworking.

Why is this comment downvoted? It is a fact that big tobacco bankrolls the cannabis industry and that is where the aforementioned money comes from. The genetics are all bought up, the land is all bought up, the industry is consolidating and it's impossible for mom and pop to sell cannabis. Every recreational market, including Canada, is a disaster.

The inequality between matrix multiplication implementations is enormous. It gets even more extreme on GPU where I've seen the difference between naïve and cuBLAS going as high as 1000x. Possibly 10000x. I have a lot of faith in myself as an optimization person to be able to beat compilers. I can even beat MKL and hipBLAS if I focus on specific shapes in sizes. But trying to beat cuBLAS at anything makes me feel like Saddam Hussein when they pulled him out of that bunker.
I called the IRS some time pre-2019, after they misinterpreted my $500 taxable income as $500,000. (I had to file for other reasons.) I got an agent quickly and he was helpful and resolved the problem.

According to the stories the two bridge endpoints were in different buildings a few blocks apart. You can't just lay a cable in the middle of a public street.
How is the Bun test runner’s compatibility with Jest’s methods? Can a mature test suite be easily ported?

I like this historical example, but it doesn’t not present a way to think about government debt. What is a reasonable amount of debt? Is there a limit? Seems like the conclusion of this excerpt is just “shrug, didn’t happen”
Not all vision transformers have weak priors. Shifted-window transformers and neighborhood attention have priors well suited to images; the latter is showing extremely strong performance in image generation (such as the recent hourglass diffusion which allows pixel space diffusion to be trained orders of magnitudes faster than vanilla attention) and general image classification, and certainly does not need the same dataset size of classical ViTs.

I'm an experienced Data scientist, who's worked on a bunch of interesting projects. With Covid I've come to realize I need to work in public more often.

So an ideal fit would be a small/medium company with hair on fire problems that need solving that I can talk about publicly.

What sort of problems do I like?

A Taxi company in latam hired me to built a fleet maintenance system. It predicted and scheduled preventative maintenance to reduce wear and tear and avoid breakdowns. We also identified the leading cause of wear - leadfoot drivers. So we built a system that would identify aggressive driving.

Another example was a speculative sports highlights annotation system I built with a consultancy. It ingested sports video and identified predetermined highlights in baseball - diving catches in our case. The ML pipeline was a CNN model which fed into an RNN. Given a bunch of video clips of diving catches as training data, it could later identify those diving catches and automatically annotate the video feeds.

Who shouldn't contact me.

Good tidbit in there that systemd was about to ship an optimization that rendered their payload non-functional:

This might be why they started rushing their backdoored release, even though it was not perfect yet.
IEEE 754 can represent integers larger than MAX_SAFE_INTEGER, just not all of them:

That's still going to be a greater than 0.1% chance of hitting a non-representable value though.
I can tell you from my own experience of roughly 7 years with eating keto most of the time, that it’s my opinion it’s actually a low calorie diet in disguise. The higher fat and often slower digesting foods deliver satiety faster and better than other diets. When I am strict keto, I eat far less calories because my body is rarely telling me I am hungry and when I do eat…it’s telling me I am full in far less calories.
>> I'd love a RSS reader that groups items on the same topic.

We had the same concern with everyday industry news, and so did some of our customers, so we built it a while back!

Our Newsroom feed reader uses NLP and ML to group similar articles for low-noise research/reading:

https://newsloth.com/#features

Currently, it detects and groups articles from a few hundred popular global news sites, and gradually growing to cover more sources.

We also have a feed builder/generator that turns unstructured public webpages into structured RSS feeds, to make it a flexible and unified feeds platform:

It doesn't seem to have been actually included in the Arch (binary) package but only because the backdoor build system itself didn't include the backdoor for Arch. If you cmp -l liblzma.so.5.6.1 between xz-5.6.1-1 and xz-5.6.1-2 there are only tiny differences. I'm guessing they didn't notice this before writing the advisory.

Yeah I saw a Github discussion where he mentioned that the code for uploading telemetry data was disabled, but he also said he plans to re-enable that at some point: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/discussions/2605#discussionco...

I would prefer to have the telemetry become opt-in before data collection is turned on.

That would be Python. I do not like it, which does not mean it is bad, it is a matter of taste

Hmm, that's an interesting idea, I could make a secret link that people could use to upload files to your space, without ever seeing the resulting image link. Thanks for the idea!

I also had another story: my friends asked me to troubleshoot their DSL connection. It dropped out sometime after the sun set and came back in the morning.

Sure enough, this turned out to be RFI from newly installed solar invertors, creeping down the shield of an unused CB radio coax that ran parallel to the phone wiring.

Grr, I hate DSL...

Long story short: don't use JSON numbers to represent money or monetary rates. Always use decimals encoded as string. It's surprising how many APIs fall short of this basic bar.
The real question is how much you can trust this. Those kinds of permission systems have been tried before - e.g. .NET used to have something called "Code Access Security". It was retired largely because the very notion of VM-enforced sandbox was deemed inadequate from experience. IIRC SecurityManager in Java was something similar, also deprecated for similar reasons. I'm afraid that Deno will just be a repeat of that.

I am a full-stack developer focused on improving user experience. I build client-side experiences around HTML and JavaScript, supported by proficiency in writing, design, web APIs, backend services, data wrangling, and CI/CD. My website reveals a history of passion projects and instructive content where I identify pain points in software and develop low-friction solutions.

This is great! As someone outgrowing Duolingo this is perfect. I do agree it would be nice to be able to switch between dialects.
I thought this tool would be great for me when I found out recently, but it simply wouldn't match on things that I expected it to, and I haven't been able to integrate it into my workflow. How are others using it?
You're assuming a few things:

1. I'm using GPT 3.5 level LLMs

2. I'm not using humans in the loop to verify solutions

3. I'm not using testing or self-correcting strategies to verify and correct solutions

Given these assumptions, then I agree - hallucinations eat your lunch, big time.

What I proposing is using GPT4 to annotate existing solutions and propose drafts, with humans in the loop to approve and revise, and self-correcting workflows to test solutions.

And I'm basing this off my own experience with upgrading project build and packaging systems, using the AI to annotate, draft, fix errors, etc.

I have full oversight over the final solution. And it has to be simple and clean, or I write another draft.

The result is that I can understand and upgrade build and packaging solutions maybe five or ten times faster than I ever could before. Even quite cryptic legacy systems that I would never touch before.

Now multiply that times every open source developer in the world.

That's why I think we could execute a major build and packaging modernization effort.
This is dead code from before Bun 1.0. This code exists but is not run and probably stripped from the final executable (Zig is great at dead code elimination). We do get the Linux kernel version to detect if syscalls like pidfd_open are supported and enable fast paths.
I wonder why regular distros even need installers.

I mean yes, it's friendly to new users. Yes, some steps must be run that cannot be expressed as one-size-fits-all files in a tarball.

But could a power user not untar a filesystem and run a script and be good to go? I know that's a de-facto installer - I just wish the tarball was easier to get at, I guess. Seems like a lot of data (deb packages) tied up inside code (one big 'install' function)

This particular submarine may offer some reprieve from the april fool's joke:

Which innovately uses the very classic stirling engine, an engine which operates on the sole basis of heat differences, no internal combustion.

Plants Do 'Scream'. We've Simply Never Heard It Until Now
Go (the game). I wrote a clone of AlphaGo in Go (the programming language) 8 years ago. Along the way I learned to play Go.

I've been using a combination of my own AI, LeelaZero and KataGo to teach myself in Go. For 8 years I've languished at the same level of play. Then I met a real human teacher who taught me Go at the end of 2023. And since then my game improved. I beat my own AI (which was intentionally trained to be impoverished in skill) for the first time in January.

Learning Go is teaching me all sorts of new ideas in pedagogy and putting a dampener in any enthusiasm that involves LLMs in education.
Fluid and Crystalized Intelligence
Uh... no. `6513249` as an integer is 3 bytes `0x636261`.. which in base 64 is `Y2Jh`.. 4 bytes (article lists in little endian, but so be it).. we've already switched from integer to string to type and support the premise.. base64 is clearly worse. And let's flag this as cherry picking, Base64 is always a multiple of 4 bytes, so `2` (1 byte as either an integer or string) in base 64 is `Ag==` (4 bytes).. so even /worse/.

QR codes (like barcodes) were built with data in mind, supporting 4 types.. integers (numeric 0-9, use 3.3 bits ea).. "alphanumeric" (not really `[0-9A-Z$%*+-./:]`, use 5.5 bits ea), binary (0x00-0xff, use 8 bits ea), kanji (use 13 bits ea). As you move up the compression/data usage mostly gets worse.

By incorrectly converting binary (0-255) to base64 (0-63) you waste 3 bits per element (8 bits {because the space is > "alphanumeric"} to hold 5 bits of data). This is a tale of not understanding encoding, and using the wrong tool for the job.

Which the article further does by advocating for decimal instead of binary.. the example:
`072685680885510189821994892577900638215789419258463239488533499278955911240512279111633336286737089008384293066931974311305533337894591404330656702603998035920596585517131555967430155259257402711671699276432408209151397638174974409842883898456527289026013404155725275860173673194594939` (in decimal, 285 bytes as a string, 950 bits in QR)

can be
`B9IiBlcmVoIHNlb2cgc3NlcmRkYSBzc2VuaXN1QiI6InNzZXJkZGFiIiwiZWRvYyBSUSB0bmVtbnJldm9HIFdTTiB0c2VUIjoiZW1hbmIiLCIxMjMxMjEiOiJkaWIiLCJzc2VuaXN1Yl85MWRpdm9jIjoidCJ7` (in base64, 158 bytes, 1264 bits in QR)

but if done correctly,

I'm sure there's more to it, but just comparing the profile output shows aggressive use of prefetch and broadcast instructions.
You're catching down votes but this is almost certainly accurate.

A lot of that data is almost certainly not very useful beyond a one to three month time window. Google can you use traffic data on search to keep tabs on trending topics, tune the algorithm against new human behaviors, and other time boxed benefits. There isn't a lot of use for data that's 6 months old in this context.

Many years ago I was working in an environment where I got interrupted constantly. I’d get up to answer a question when someone called me over, and before I could get back to my seat, three other people had questions. I’d spend hours doing laps around the room. My boss noticed this and stuck me in a room by myself and told the whole team they weren’t allowed to talk to me. He designed one person as their way to ask me a question, with the assumption that the questions would get answered before it made it to me. I got so much more done. Things that would have taken a week were done in a day.

Some time later I ended up back in a shared environment and generally used my hood (on the hoodie I usually wore) as my “do not disturb” signal. If my hood was up, I was working on something and probably shouldn’t be bothered. It was a completely unconscious thing I did; I even do it when working from home. As I enter a flow state or go deep into thought, the hood goes up without fail.

I also found stepping away from the desk to be extremely helpful when stuck on something. I could beat my head against the wall for 4 hours… or I could go for a walk for 20 minutes, and probably solve the problem in 5 minutes when I get back.

I’ve also found vacations immensely helpful for solving problems, especially the really big ones. If I take 2 weeks off I usually come up with all kinds of ideas and answers to work problems. I write them down to get them out of my head, so I can go back to my vacation, but come back to work with dozens of ideas and solutions. This doesn’t happen if I only take 1 week off. I’m about to have my first 2 week stretch off since 2018. I can’t wait. There has been a lot of build up.

The managers who treat knowledge workers like factory workers really don’t understand the nature of the work.
I can definitely see the value of not wanting to write the boilerplate kind of stuff you need to do for more shell like scripting. I can also see wanting to emulate the traditional syntax while abstracting away whether you are on a Unix system and still allowing traditional JavaScript syntax in between the sheep-y parts.

On the dependency side it'd be slick if you could bun --compile these like normal bun apps.
