If by "the rest of the world" you mean a cherry-picked selection of the most advanced countries, then yes, the US is behind on internet access (and everything else).

It never makes sense to me when people say how the US ranks last among developed countries on a bunch of metrics. Of course, that just means the US is indeed... less developed than those countries. If it's not fair to compare the US to Somalia, it's not fair to compare it to Sweden either. It just is what it is, somewhere between the two development extremes.
OK, I really hate to point this out but this America we are talking about - we literally use the Visas and GCs to allow in those we want and not those we don't and how we decide who we want isn't arbitrary - it's mostly racist.

Canada isn't so bad off when it comes to wired service. Several ISPs are owned by the government: Sasktel, Bruce Telecom, Tbaytel, CityWest. And many more are co-operatives owned by the customers.

The mobile space is more challenging. A number of those co-ops and government ISPs were running mobile service back in the mid 2000s, but they never found the customer base and most of them eventually shut it down, Tbaytel and Sasktel being the exceptions.

That said, many of those ISPs have more recently turned to reselling Big 3 service, so you can still at least minimize how much the Big 3 take, giving the small guy at least some of the cut. Maybe some day they can take that small cut and build out their own network again? But, you get what you choose to become a customer of, I suppose.

It’s interesting you say that? It runs completely counter to my experience coming from the “BSD-style” rc.d init Arch used to use, and migrating to systemd.

Any specific issues? I didn’t see any. No offense.
One factor may be that Arch prioritizes not patching upstream - helped save them from targeting here, and it doesn’t go overboard with default configs, which I’ve long appreciated.

Not to distro-war, I’m very grateful for Debian. My background is finding Linux in the mid-00s and breaking many SuSE, Ubuntu, and one or two Debian systems before finding something I could understand, repair, and maintain in 2008 Arch.

systemd accentuated its ability to stay relevant with enterprise Linux, made it even easier to package for, and has been a useful tool in diagnosing service issues and managing bad software for me.

I’m not sure how often it’s posted here but Benno Rice formerly of FreeBSD Core Team has an excellent and amusing discussion of systemd’s technical merits.

Yeah, the discourse around the Net Neutrality thing was intense. I was one the few people who argued it wouldn't change much, and I remember being struck by the state of near-internet-apocalypse people were predicting at the time.

Can you please explain why I should get a 1099 from the customer?

Suppose I was a machine shop rebuilding engines for mechanic shops. They send me busted engines, and I send them working engines and invoices, which the customer pays. I'm on the hook for a warranty if the engine fails due to my mistake. There is no need for a 1099. Why is that?

In my case, the client sends rough and noisy data from CMM devices, and I return smoothed and rationalized designs and invoices, and I'm financially on the hook for mistakes that cause rework. How am I legally different from the machine shop?

Don't say single customer, since that seems irrelevant. I'm free to sell to other customers, including my customer's own competitors.

If you can cite specific documents or laws, that will help.

I would also like to know your reasoning for why you think I'm self employed rather than a NEO. You just state your view, but that doesn't explain the principles you're applying.

I also don't understand your reasoning as to why you think I'm committing or helping my customer commit employer tax fraud. I own my own process, intellectual property, and material assets. I have to service my liabilities, I'm on the hook if I cause damages, and I am free to sell to competitors. I am clearly a sole proprietor. The question is how I fall in the article's classification.

If you would please explain your reasoning behind these things, that would help me decide whether your analysis/implied advice is helpful to me. Thanks!
> Are cargo ships full of essential goods

This article is about a company transporting luxury coffee, chocolate and wine from France - hardly what I would call "essential goods". And given that coffee and chocolate doesn't grow in France, dollars to doughnuts the commodities for those products was originally brought to France on traditional cargo ships.

Totally agree with another commenter, this is simply greenwashing.

I find it interesting how nobody blinks an eyelid at the massive profits raked in by companies like Google, Facebook etc. but as soon as the ISPs that create the infrastructure that makes all this happen (and innovate massively in the process) want some piece of the cake everyone cries foul.

Now I actually strongly support net neutrality and maybe ISPs don't really need a piece of the cake, but it is still interesting how the online companies have captured most of the profits, but are also considered the good guys in his scenario.

Sure, shit will happen, but it's much easier to preserve digital media than it is for physical media, especially when shit happens. Disk space is cheaper and cheaper while physical space is getting more and more expensive for the most of us. Also, physical media can't be duplicated (noone will actually print out copies of those old magazines, and even if they did, it wouldn't be the same).

I know you lose the experience of paper, but that experience is limited to the few that have the actual copies. Digital is available to everyone. I see more issues with more modern media, where eg. videogames cannot be played at all anymore, due to always-online drm and requiring backend servers that the publishers are shutting down (so even pirate cracks cannot help). For comparison, you can fit the whole NES and SNES library on a usb stick with space left over.
One explanation is an old one, MONEY. My understanding is that for a cargo ship of reasonable size, the diesel or black oil fuel to cross the Atlantic can be > $1 million. The wind? Free. And, with a well designed sailboat, the speed can be reasonably fast. And save on the purchase and maintenance costs of steam turbines and big diesel engines and their weight.

As you mentioned models need _random_ videos. Just 'walk outside' will produce more or less the same. My guess Adobe is more interested in 'family' sort of videos, with humans. This is what most users will be asking for. Getting them in other ways will be either illegal or really expensive.

Is this really specific to prosecutors? I feel like it would work in reverse with an incompetent prosecutor and a defense lawyer who knows his client is actually guilty. What stands out to me in those examples is that the difference is occurring because of a conflict between an explicit, codified set of rules (the code of ethics that lawyers operate under) and a perceived greater good that isn't being enforced or codified. To me, this makes it seem like the difference between ethics and morals is that ethics are codified and enforced in some sense (i.e. there's some authority with the ability to mete out punishments for violations), whereas morality covers right and wrong independent of consequences. I think in a moral context, the intent of an ethical code is to define the morality of various actions, but the question of whether something abides by those ethics is orthogonal to whether the action is moral or not; people might agree that a code of ethics says something but disagree whether what it says is moral or not.

Well, at least if you see escalating measurable harm you'll come around, I'm happy about that. You won't necessarily get the escalating harm even if AI doom is real though, so you should try to discover if it is real even in worlds where hard takeoff is a thing.

> What I would expect is for the people who claim to care about AI doom to actually be trying to measure real world harm.

Why bother? If escalating harm is a thing, everyone will notice. We don't need to bolster that, because ordinary society has it handled.
Absolutely. OTC swaps have counterparty risk, which is absent when you hold stock.

>do you write tests for it? Or do you write tests for the higher level routines which call it? I think most write tests for the function.

I try to not test things that are that simple. But I wouldn't fault anyone for writing a small number of test cases for it.

>For example, in red-green-refactor TDD, you are not supposed to change the tests when you refactor.
>
>What you've ended up with are tests for the specific structure, and not the general goals.

I'm not familiar with this methodology. But if your refactoring requires changing the interfaces then it must require changing the tests. It may be ideal to have such rigid interfaces in some cases, but I don't think you have to be so committed to one methodology. Big changes require big testing.

>If you write tests for the function then you hinder future refactoring from removeprefix(s, prefix) to s.removeprefix(prefix) once you switch to a Python which implements s.removeprefix (3.9, I think?)

How? Is the old code supposed to stop working because a new function was added? You aren't obligated to delete perfectly working and tested code. And if the new version of Python breaks it somehow, the tests will tell you quickly compared to finding out in a bigger test.

>Which is why I use coverage-based method to identify what need more tests. Coverage is a powerful tool, and easily misused.

Coverage is fine. But I mean, coverage is for people who already committed to testing every line of code. Not every project has unit tests in the first place so coverage is a moot point.

>The biggest problem is that you decide to not refactor because there are so many tests to delete, and you have to figure out if the failing test really is okay to delete (because it was implementation specific) vs. one that needs to be updated (eg, because it handles a regression case).

This work is very easy compared to fixing the real product in most cases. If you didn't write a bunch of frivolous tests it isn't that much work.

>>Those types of tests are not unit tests
>
>Correct! And no one said they were.

Well this is a discussion about unit tests. If you want to talk about other types of tests you need to be clear about that.

>That's fine. You do you.

I was just pointing out that unit tests are not always feasible to do. But I wish they were. The stuff I see at work was not designed by me, so it's not my fault it is infeasible to test at least.
I'll vote for anyone who isn't Trump, hasn't sworn fealty to Trump, and isn't likely to kowtow to Trump or his acolytes and their agenda. That basically means a Democrat, but it also means writing in my neigbor's cat if that is the alternative to a Trumpist candidate.

There are "establishment" Republicans I still respect and might vote for under normal circumstances, but not in today's political environment.

That said, I disagree with a ton of things with the Democratic party and liberals/progressives in general too, but at this point, purging Trumpism is what I see as most important.

Yes, I understand there are broader issues that fueled the rise in Trumpism in the first place, and agree they need to be handled and heard.

It is, with the caveat that the public version is probably broken for everyone but me (various dependencies on other tools on my system that need to be weeded out), and extremely out of date (the newest commits from 9 months ago). I do keep intending to bring it up to date, but there are a lot of things in there I want to change before I start pushing the newer changes... I wouldn't recommend anyone try to make that version work at this point.
I suspect it's a brand name they tested across multiple languages, etc
The name "treeshaker" for an application delivery tool possibly originated in Lisp. The first time I've found it was in Lucid Common Lisp, a (no longer available) commercial implementation of Common Lisp for UNIX. Lucid CL 4.1 in 1992 included a tool called Treeshaker. Lucid CL was one of those Lisps which have the idea of an image (see for example the "image" feature of Lisp 1 in 1960), a saved memory dump of the current heap of a running Lisp. An application then is an image plus a runtime. The image typically includes almost all code AND data from the memory, which sometimes creates the wish to create smaller images for application delivery. Lucid CL then included a tool, which before saving that image, removes all kinds of unused code and data, depending on some meaning of what „unused“ means. For example the symbol table may have variables, types, functions, etc. which are not referenced anywhere. A treeshaker tool might also get a list of things to remove. Thus in a graph of reachable Lisp data&code, the connections are pruned. Either a GC or a specialized piece of code then collects the garbage, shrinks memory (-> shakes the tree and everything which is cut loose is falling down) and dumps it as a possibly smaller image.

The treeshaker thus was not a compiler tool, but a tool to remove what was determined to be unused code of a Lisp heap. Remember, by default such a Lisp image would also contain a compiler, an interpreter and an implementation of a read-eval-print loop. Thus if we break (-> interrupt a thread which then provides a REPL) a running program into such a read-eval-print loop, we could still use all the code, which is in this heap (which was restored from an image). Thus it would make sense to remove the compiler too, and possibly the read-eval-print loop, too.

It is cool seeing hacks like this. But this is something to be careful with, as GH100 had hardware changes to meet CUDA fence requirements.
This. If ISPs want to QoS traffic into different lanes... fine.

But those lanes should:

- Only be created by regulation
- Be freely accessible to any app
- Not involve any app-ISP payment

Control flow is doable with gotos. What benefit therefore is structured programming?

Dynamic dispatch is implemented under the hood with lookup tables and function pointers. Sometimes, it is nice for a language to wrap a fiddly thing in a more abstract structure to make it easier to read, understand, and write.

One is pruning dead stuff and shaking the tree is then letting them fall down. The garbage collector then takes it away.
This is correct. Slicing can offer significant performance gains in certain situations. For example, lower latency when certain users need it while not overburdening the network by having to give that to every user.
