I tried to learn GTK a few years ago, because I wanted to create an app that was fast, snappy and looked "native" on Linux.

But I was unable to find information about how to set up my repo and build process with GTK vendored into the project. All tutorials said that I should just install GTK libraries with my system package manager, but that was not a satisfactory answer for me.

After some hours
fiddling around stackoverflow, adding flags to my GCC invocation and being unable to solve the problem, I just gave up.

Flutter Desktop seems like a compelling alternative to GTK these days.

Nope, I was the guy that had Palm Pilots, got my whole Architecture group Palm pilots and we used to beam messages at each other in meetings. I became good at graffiti writing, my printing today looks like it. The Palm phones was a natural extension of that.

My first one was the 180 model, with the flip front cover. I did a quick check, I had my first Palm Phone in 2002-3, iPhones came out in 2007.
> Mac OS, Win16, PalmOS all have shared heaps too

Mac OS didn’t. It had a system heap and a heap for the running application. Once it supported running multiple applications simultaneously, each of them had its own heap (https://www.folklore.org/Switcher.html: “One fundamental decision was whether or not to load all of the applications into a single heap, which would make optimal use of memory by minimizing fragmentation, or to allocate separate "heap zones" for each application. I decided to opt for separate heap zones to better isolate the applications, but I wasn't sure that was right.”)

That’s why MultiFinder had to know how much RAM to give to each application. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MultiFinder#MultiFinder: “MultiFinder also provides a way for applications to supply their memory requirements ahead of time, so that MultiFinder can allocate a chunk of RAM to each according to need” (Wikipedia doesn’t mention it, but MultiFinder also allowed users to increase those settings)
Honest question: have you ever run a business? You're talking about setting up millions of accounts to pay them $.02 or $.20 or even $2.00. ACH payments cost an average of $.29/each https://gocardless.com/en-us/guides/ach/ach-fees-how-much-do...

You're dealing with a bunch of people who will try to rip you off, so you need to have anti-fraud protections. Then you need to be able to override the anti-fraud protections because Alex, Alex and Bob, Alex, Bob, and Curt, etc. are all legit performers who want the payments to go to one common bank account even though you'd like one act == one bank account. Etc.
i wonder if we can train a foundational model on this data which will eventually allow to semantically search the codebase?
A shame the author doesn't mention what FSD release the car he used was on? There is significant differences in performance now, especially the cars on the 12.3.x branches that have the new end-to-end route planner etc. It would be my first question to anyone reporting on an FSD experience.

Someone trying an 11.x version and someone on 12.x will have significantly different experiences at the moment, with 12.x having some of the biggest advancements we've seen since Tesla began doing this. 12.x is still rolling out to fleet now, with only ~40% of cars on it if the online Tesla fleet version trackers can be believed.

I'm not suggesting it might change the author's feelings completely if he was on a 12.x branch of FSD, but the jump from 11 to 12 has been siginificant.

EDIT: not sure why the downvotes - its a legitimate question the original article doesn't answer...

The article says Tesla's "Full Self Driving" requires you to keep your hands on the wheel.

I would say that is obviously not full self driving - but I suppose I'll never succeed in marketing with an attitude like that.
I’ve used FSD since the first invite beta and this version has been a step back for me. Multiple break checks on the freeway, incredibly bad path planning through intersections where it just switches lanes mid way through, random turn signals coming on for no reason, list can go on. It’s like they just tweaked some params to reduce the shakiness of the wheel but didn’t actually do much to improve confidence.
TLDR They drove down narrow 1-lane streets and had to disengage once. While this sounds quite impressive, the article spends a lot of time focused on fear of FSD. There's even a hypothetical comment that he will surely be hit by an FSD enabled car.

It's full, until it's not. i.e. it does drive the car "fully", but can and does refuse at times if you get too far off where it knows, into terrain it doesn't understand, weather it's not trained on, roads it doesn't like, drivers around you doing things it's not expecting, etc.

It would make as much sense to say that sites allowing straight men to filter for "cisgender" women automate homophobia and transphobia. People should be allowed to filter mates for any reason without guilt. Not wanting to date people of race X does not mean you think people of race X do not deserve equal rights, which I think is a better definition of racism (or perhaps racialism).

I am Indian-American and not in the dating pool (I'm married). If I were dating, I would not want to waste time on dates with women who don't want to date Indian-American men.

> Which alternative IPC + capability delegation protocol do you wish linux used instead?

Why "alternative"? Aren't file-based operations good enough? A program reads and writes data to files/devices, which it can or cannot do according to the permissions that it sees. From the point of view of the program, nothing else is needed beyond fopen,fread and fwrite. If finer control is needed, it's not for the program to implement, but for the OS to expose. An improvement to the dbus+polkit mess would be something that programs don't link to, something that is entirely invisible to programs beyond the possibility to open certain files at runtime.
Nah, it effectively auths you against whatever saml/oicd provider you're using to back tailscale, along with the acls you define. It's not just 'network access = auth'.
> It was silly. Can we just accept that? Okay, thank you. Moving on.

For what it's worth one of my clients installs charging stations and after meeting maybe hundreds of Tesla owners I assure you(anecdotally) that 19 out of 20 don't mention the CEO at all. Most Americans don't even have a twitter account(less than a third do) so this mindset of associating your car brand with all that e-drama is only for people chronically online. Most are non car people(as in, they wouldn't have bought a BMW or Mercedes, they were happy with a toyota) just excited about the tech that goes into the car. It means no more to the average driver on the road than what Henry Fords' opinions were(and they were worse)

Now frame this in type theory, zippers? The derivative of a data type is its one holed contexts?

Or is it not amenable to that perspective all I can find is from a different viewpoint: “ The dynamic trees problem, first posed by Sleator and Tarjan is to maintain a forest of trees subject to the insertion and deletion of edges, also known as links and cuts. Dynamic trees are used as a building block in a multitude of applications, including maximum flows, dynamic connectivity and minimum spanning trees, and minimum cuts, making them a fruitful line of work with a rich history.”

I'm actually relatively impressed with Meta's AI as compared to the others. I'm not sure why anyone that responded to this thread decided to respond with the attitude that this isn't important. A lot of groups in the past, present, and future are going to lodge grievances against AI as it evolves. The best thing you can do as a technologist is listen, not encourage people to ideate that they're off their rocker for their concern.

Yeah… I have to intervene frequently when my mother is driving - she frequently turns to talk to me or whoever the passenger is, and while I’d in principle trust her judgment, she’s had a head-on with another car and driven off the road twice while doing this, and that’s only the times I have been present.

My wife does this too, and has fishtailed on the highway when she has suddenly realised she’s drifted across two lanes while not looking at the road. She frequently decides to read and write messages while driving, with me and our infant daughter in the car.

I think there’s a tendency to vastly overestimate the competence of human drivers.
I imagine it could also make congestion more efficient. I believe a big factor to congestion is human behavior. We at least have good ideas about better ways to drive during congestion.. which humans rarely follow.

My least favorite part of the article was where the author complained about the “financial mistake” of the car, about how they were underwater on their car loan.

Depreciation is a normal and expected part of buying a car. If you are financing a car you should be prepared to keep it for a long period of time. While many automakers offer car loans of 5+ years, ideally you should only finance a car for 3 or 4 years and/or put more money down to ensure you are never underwater.

At no point did the author say that the car didn’t do its job as a reliable piece of transportation, but somehow it was a “financial mistake.”

The fact that cars depreciate and cost too much is a feature of all cars.
So my other place is in Yamhill which is even more extreme, but basically all counties surrounding Multnomah are full of people who swear they haven't stepped foot in Portland since 2019 and will never go back because it's, according to them (who don't visit), a "I'm sorry you live in that shithole" level shithole. Which is obviously absurd. But that's how extreme the urban/suburban divide is here.
To be fair, the actual paper is much less grandiose [1]. This is just the usual pop-science breathless reporting.

For testing usability, you are right. For testing performance of terminal emulators, you're wrong. A very large resolution should make the differences easier to measure. On smaller screens they should all perform closer to perfect, the difference between them will be smaller and your reason to care about these results will also be diminished. Basically, it doesn't matter.
Another option would be to build driverless road lanes, repurpose the carpool and truck lanes, or designate certain streets. Seems like a no-brainer for improving safety.

I think it also would have been easier/faster to build networked vehicles that can communicate with one another over a standard protocol, but for some reason the industry didn’t opt to standardize things in that way, and now we have a bunch of rogue driverless cars that make independent decisions instead of taking into account each other’s plans.
I like this one, it took a couple of tries that didn't result in at least one the objects being yeeted out of the system
This is the genius or fallacy of Tesla's marketing, depending on how you look at it. There IS a standard from the SAE for describing autonomous driving that everyone else uses.

By that standard, FSD is still at Level 2 out of 5. (But probably approaching level 3 in the next few years.)

FSD as Tesla markets it (above the asterisk of course) would be level 5 autonomy where the car can complete a trip to any destination completely independent of any driver intervention. The current tech is not that.

The best autonomy I've seen is from other players like GM's Cruise were the car can complete trips without having a driver on hand to intervene... but only in certain controlled areas / conditions.

To be clear: the author wrote it because they knew you'd like it, and interpret their florid prose as "unfiltered". The rest of us using boring English to tell you that it's been driving us around for almost two years now don't get the same kind of click traffic.

Meh. Believe what you want; read what you want; fear what you want. Whether it "works" or not is a question susceptible to factual analysis, not vocabulary.

No, I had to do this when I moved to Europe with my non-married fiancee.

Some states can give you a statement saying "This person never has gotten married in our state", but they cannot pull the records of every state. In fact, the state that I was living in could not even do that -- only individual counties could pull records saying "This person did not have a wedding within this county". There are no central records.

When I tried to use that as a record of non-marriage, it was not accepted for the above reasons. My fiancee and I needed to give a signed oath to a notary that we were not married, and take that document to the state's office to be apostilled.

And also pretty totalitarian. IIRC, to the point of resettling and mixing communities to discourage rebellion.

> If you know you will need to provide a good public API, building it from the get go and a React/Angular app on top might still be worth it.

That is a different point than you made earlier in your comment though. That you start building an API on the server side does not mean you’re creating a good, well-balanced, API suitable for public consumption (being consumption in other teams or even other companies).

>There would also be no incentive to be a landlord, so the units would get converted to condos, no more would be built and anyone who can't afford a down payment is homeless.

You missed the second half of this sentence, which is the downside of the tradeoff.
>Then don't tax payments on principal or interest.

Mortgage payments are already tax deductible, and one of the biggest perks for owning a home.

>Having individuals negotiate rates with a bank is a much better situation than facing price fixed rents.

Renters are a Group that are already unprofitable to lend to, so banks would reject most and hike rates higher for the rest.

Your proposal only makes sense if landlords provide no service, but this isnt true. Just like how a bank makes a % interest for taking risk and providing capital that owners wont, landlords do the same thing. Landlords get paid a profit to take on risk and long term liability (to the bank), and again provide capital.

In short, banks loan cash to landlords because they are more credit worthy and take on liability. They in tern loan a home to renters, who have worse credit and much less liability.

It is all about paying a premium for others to take financial risk.
I'm on Gnome, and I moved from Gnome Console to Wezterm because of the latency. It wasn't noticeable when I used terminal as a small window, but most of the time my terminal was fullscreen, and the delay was unbearable.
Regardless of how good FSD turns out to be in any manufacturer's vehicles, I can't help but think that there are better ways to tackle transportation than giving every single person their own car that they have to pay for.

I live in a city with an unusually high number of highway miles per capita. I have to drive 24 miles each way to and from work. AI that can complete this task for me, safely, is pretty cool, but still largely hypothetical and not available to most people. What I'd really like is public transit and an honest national conversation about urban sprawl. My metro area is more-or-less three Manhattans placed side-by-side, but with 2.5 million in population. That's insane. Another automotive technology isn't going to solve that.
It does sound kinda sketchy, but the preceding sentence to your quote mentions it 'has been shown in earlier work' so presumably there are some studies somewhere showing the experiment, links and how much we can learn from it etc.

It still might have flaws, but it's not like they just got people to draw charts and interpreted it as 'collectivist' and 'individualist' for the first time in this study.

Last time I checked it is a contract just about anywhere, including the United States. Marriage rights are primarily property rights. (or "liabilities", ask any divorce lawyer).
No, only my anecdote. The state is offering significantly reduced coverage for more than double the cost of previous coverage. Getting the state plan still requires you to get additional private coverage in order to satisfy mortgage insurance requirements. I think it would be impossible for a layman to just give you "evidence" that will fit whatever arbitrary checkbox is formally needed. I cannot fathom a way the state isn't profiting here and both the state and insurance companies are exposing homeowners to incredible burdens.

Now you frame this like I am too high risk or people in this capacity are too high risk, but that is the whole problem. Insurance cos are inconsistently making these determinations and the state's governance is directly responsible for the lack of regulation and enforcement. Nothing in my area has changed, but the insurance company has enacted the equivalent of ex post facto evaluation due to the state of CA. As example, my roof in great condition, passed inspection when purchase property a few years ago. I don't have certificates or invoices for repairs done to it in the 50 years of my home's life because I've only owned the property for a few years. The insurance company canceled my insurance stating I refused to provide such an invoice. They also claimed I'm now in a dangerous fire zone (I'm not) which I wasn't a year ago. They also claimed to need invoice of repairs for my plumbing, which again, is in wonderful condition. They stated simply providing inspection receipts wouldn't cut it and expensive certificates were needed. Anyways, I doubt you will read this but it's ridiculous and I'm not the only one in this state going through it.
