Appreciate the feedback.
Will do in a little bit! (sorry to get back late, as I was super busy with my job this week.)
The greatest kind of growth isn’t any of these three metrics she mentions.

It is wisdom and self-mastery: the ability to know what is right and wrong, the control to continually transform yourself, bit by bit, something that makes everything around you better.

These things she talks about are fine, but in the best lived life, they merely follow from the first.
I don't. S3-compatible storages usually are significantly cheaper, allow to offload HTTP requests. Also huge databases make backups and recoveries slow.

The only upside of storing blobs in the database is transactional semantics. Buf if you're fine with some theoretical trash in S3, that's trivially implemented with proper ordering.
Non-compiling intermediate commits is basically the normal workflow for most people I've reviewed, unless they're rewriting history. One commit will do something like refactor an interface, the next will modify a distinct subset of callers, etc. Sometimes those intermediates don't compile for any number of reasons. I'll personally rewrite history for teams that want clean commits, but definitely not universally.

How do you develop that you don't have broken intermediate working states or thoughts that you can't complete by the end of the day?
C++ has had namespaces for a very long time (since the beginning? not sure, I wasn't using computers when it was created), just like those other languages. The name collision issue that it has is the same as them.

And with those C++ namespaces you can do `using some_namespace::some_specific_name;`. Which resolves the issue just like in those other languages.

I think it's practically impossible for such a system to be globally trustworthy due to the practical inevitability of "but improper storage of private keys lead to vulnerabilities" scenarios.

People will expect or require that chain of custody only if all or at least the vast majority of the content they want would have that chain of custody.

Photo/video content will have that chain of custody only if all or almost all of devices recording that content will support it - including all the cheapest mass-produced devices in reasonably widespread use anywhere in the world.

And that chain of custody provides the benefit only if literally 100% of these manufacturers have their private keys secure 100% of the time, which is simply not happening; at least one such key will leak, if not unintentionally then intentionally for some intelligence agency who wants to fake content.

And what do you do once you see a leak of the private keys used for signing the certificates for the private keys securely embedded in (for example) all of 2029 Huawei smartphones, which could be like 200 million phones? The users won't replace their phones just because of that, and you'll have all these users making content - so everyone will have to choose to either auto-block and discard everything from all those 200 million users, or permit content with a potentially fake chain of custody; and I'm totally certain that most people will prefer the latter.
I think you've been misinformed, but this is the internet, so anything goes really. I can't imagine any lawyer, or anyone who can use google to search for things, thinking they can get a decent payday from this.

In addition to what CyberDildonics already said, C++ is also an (almost) superset of C. You can also inline assembly. If you find particular hot loops that need to be optimized at any point while profiling, it’s trivial to drop down levels of the stack to get the extreme performance you may need. There is no FFI needed in C++ to drop down a level. There is no barrier at all. You can write your code directly for the CPU, inline it into your code, and fine tune it as much as you want. I don’t know how that wouldn’t qualify as extreme performance.

You hit the nail on the head. Increasing optionality is a very powerful tool that not enough people utilize.
Humans have the capacity to reason, and the ability to obtain all essential nutrients on an entirely plant-based diet if they simply make the decision to do so. If one is in a survival situation where one must eat meat to survive, then that’s one thing. But by and large, people do not need to eat meat. They choose to. To assert otherwise is dishonest.

Dolphin is positively ancient software, dating from before even the Wii. If Nintendo were to pull the trigger they would have done so by now.

There was what happened with Steam, but no DMCA or other legal notices were sent from Nintendo to Dolphin. Valve contacted Nintendo about the launch and Nintendo's response was negative, but ultimately the decision not to allow Dolphin on Steam was Valve's own.

Why did software become worse lately?
I've seen basic functions split across apps, broken cloud services, and even big-budget banking apps that are painful to use. Reliability and security often feel lacking too.

I have a few theories why this happens: Are we all too distracted to do focused work? Does the industry focus too much on the newest trends rather than building things right the first time? Have easy coding tools led to devs who don't grasp the fundamentals?

Plus, what does the rise of AI mean for software quality? Could things get a LOT worse before they get better?

What are the worst examples of bad software that drive you crazy? Are there shining examples of exceptional quality that give you hope?

That's not quite a correct benchmark if I'm understanding what you benchmarked. Xoshiro and PCG need a chain of serial ops to generate a number, but not a lot of parallelism, letting the core do other stuff while it is working. ChaCha needs a lot of parallelism, and you are essentially saturating that core running it.
Just as before, a major part of photo or video evidence in court is not the actual video itself, but a person testifying "on that day I saw this horrible event, where these things happened, and here's attached evidence that I filmed which illustrates some details of what I saw." - which would be a valid consideration even without the photo/video, but the added details do obviously help.

Courts already wouldn't generally approve random footage without clear provenance.
Letting go of optionality is a good thing when you have a safety net to fall back on. If you don't have one, the next best thing is to have various escape hatches available.
I have a few Samsung Android devices and I mention them specifically because of all the crazy stuff than Samsung brings to Android.

For audio:

* Have different volumes for different app

* Have one app play its sound on your phone and another app to another device.

* Have two apps play at the same time.

For UI:

* Hide status icons that are just always on and thus meaningless.

* Customize the navigation gestures

* Put apps into windows, split screen, etc.

* DeX for desktop environment when connected to a display -- I can even remote display to my LG TV and the magic remote can be used as a mouse pointer.

For Apps:

* Linux shell and apps (Termux) -- even X windows.

* Firefox, Chome, even Samsung Internet as browsers. Samsung's browser has some unique features for phones and tablets and I end up using it the most.

* VLC for playing downloading media easily on my devices

* Smooth integration with Windows via Phone Link -- notifications, messages, photos, remote access.

* Lots of notification customizations

I could go on. There are so many features that I have never used but that's ok -- we all need and want a different set of features. I use many of these all the time. I used to have an iPhone (and my whole family has i-devices) but I think I'd have trouble going back to such a restrictive environment. But I still fully recommend iPhones and iPads for most people.

3/6 of the houses I spent a lot of time in as a kid had finished basements.

Anecdotally, finished basements are practically required if there is any sort of hill, which fairly common in the west, whereas they're likely to be absent for houses built on the floodplain.
I worked part time at google through an employment agency back in college. So I was one of those “not employed by google”-google employees, working part time on a 2 month project.

Almost 10 years later the employment agencies call me out of the blue to tell me google has conducted an internal investigation showing that contractors had lower pay than “real” employees and they are now making up for it and if I could submit my updated bank information.

I mean, that sounds like a Nigerian scammer, but since I did in fact work with the agency that called me, I updated my info and two month later they added ~$200 to my account.

Today I learned "gish galloping". No, I am a wordy person and I apologize for that. I think you'll find it isn't an excessive amount of arguments, but an excessive amount of detail to a very straightforward argument. At least that is my hope.

> Basically, you think that the US is forging alliances in the Indo-Pacific because really it wants an excuse to go to war with China and crush it. In reality, the US is using its military, specifically it’s deterrence capability as a bargaining chip in alliances with countries who are fed up with China.

Yes in broad strokes. I'm trying to not add nuance now.

However I would disagree with the "countries that are fed up with China" - that's a very American narrative but based on polls and looking from the region, these countries are mostly looking for whoever will give them the best bargain and play both sides.

> Yes, it wants to counter China’s rise

Right, I'm glad we agree on that.

> but it’s doing that through diplomacy.

I don't see this as very possible in any case. What country could convince through diplomacy another country to e.g. stop growing its economy? Are there any such examples?

Do you have any examples of diplomatic missions or examples you think show the US as having done this?

Anyhow, I'm glad we started out with my doing mental gymnastics, but now we agree that the US wants to prevent China's rise and that China is trying to avoid military conflict with the US. None of this is super crazy / convoluted.

Regards for sticking with my verboseness.
You’re right. But I think we’d need a world where we don’t have people who would pollute a lake to pocket a million dollars.

Ah, the old 'Pankernia' theory.

I'll see myself out.
There is no generally-agreed definition, but I would use the word "robot" only for machines that have manipulators (i.e. some equivalent of arms with hands; something similar to octopus tentacles or elephant trunks also qualifies as a manipulator).

Originally "robot" was used only for humanoids, but the only essential capability that distinguishes robots from earlier machines are the manipulators, so in all other respects they may not resemble humans or animals nowadays.

Good point – I'd nearly forgotten about design mode! I wonder what other browsers include a user-facing feature and UI to enable it and make it useful?

You can enable it in the javascript console (document.designMode = 'on') , but the lack of an editing UI makes it less useful.

The onramp to web page creation – and javascript programming in the browser for that matter[1] – is tantalizingly close. I wish it were a bit more discoverable in mainstream browsers.

Idk since when, but Safari on iOS had extensions available for quite a while.

Customers for other trades similarly "don't know what they want", unless it's "fix this for me".

The main difference in the software world is that you can potentially build things "once" (or rather, keep building it forever) for a huge global market, which means that it's hard to know when something is good enough. With roofing or coffee, you do good enough work (differs between companies, sure) and move on to the next customer.

But you don't think about adding continuously running rainfall test for the roofs you do to ensure no regressions (leaks) appear.

This has not been historically true.
Quite the opposite, governments and large companies even explicitly run services for digital timestamping of documents - if I wanted to potentially assert some facts in court, I'd definitely prefer having that e-document with a timestamp notarized from my local government service instead of Bitcoin, because while the cryptography is the same, it would be much simpler from the practical legal perspective, requiring less time and effort and cost to get the court to accept that.

This is another suspect observational study, IMO. The 0-5 Magnesium Depletion Score is computed from variables that pre-correlate with Metabolic Syndrome irrespective of Magnesium: 2 points for kidney disease [1], 1 for alcohol use, 1 for GERD pills, 1 for magic-diet pills.

When they try to control for alcohol use, they find another MetS correlation: non-drinkers. But people with diagnosed MetS/(pre-)diabetes/obesity often quit drinking, so they should have checked for heteroscedasticity wrt alcohol use.

I'd wait for a randomized study before stocking up on Magnesium tablets. But a multivitamin supplement is usually a good idea anyways.

That case could still be appealed and overruled. And then it could go to the Supreme Court, which would likely take years to resolve. Better to be safe than sorry, rather than hope that the case will stand.

It also doesn't fix the problem where a number of contractors sue you even if they might be wrong. It could very easily be a class action lawsuit like the one that cost Microsoft a lot of money. They could use those rules as a start and then throw a few other things together such that Google thinks it might have a problem in court and wants to settle rather than risk getting sued by every single contractor.

Hardly any of my coworkers (I work at Google) are American-born, many are not citizens, they have way different political cultures than the classical American ones. We rarely discuss politics at work, not because no one is interested, but because political ideas are so diverse, it would be super awkward to talk about Biden or Trump, it might make more sense to talk about Xi or Modi, but that is way out of my comfort zone. Maybe if I knew more about Indian or Chinese or Middle Eastern politics I could...chat about something? Yes, no one likes Trump, but if that is only 50% true in the USA, it is 99% true in the rest of the world outside of maybe Russia.

Many techies are also "liberal libertarian": they want the government to stay out of a lot of things. They want..low taxes, but also want the government to stay out of their bedroom, not dictate their life saving medical decisions, they want to wear whatever they want regardless of biological gender, they just don't fit in with the current Republican party which has thrown off libertarian values in favor of going deeper into the culture wars.
