Tom Peters’ work on management excellence is generally well-regarded and he started it at McKinsey.

He’s also more recently spoken pretty aggressively about how he thinks McKinsey has lost their way as a business and become a negative force.
I like how the OP moves to a time release monetizing model, where like cockroach, it's open source eventually. It could be an interesting counterpoint to the open core model, and one much more feasible for an individual developer. Only problem is, how do you make sure the source is open for some but not others for that period of time?
I can understand the inference part being useful and practical for Apple devs. I’m just wondering about the training part, for which there Apple silicon devices don’t seem very useful.
Yeah, definitely fewer bugs. Hopefully I won't mind the decreased flexibility, but the lack of HTTP updates really hurts.

"A high-profile niggle was given away by the sight of dead grass left over as exhaust from the helicopter’s pair of General Electric CT7-8A engines scorched the White House lawn on repeated test flights. Subsequent modifications to the exhausts fixed the problem along with some seed and fertilizer from the White House gardener.

The most important issue and the one holding back the Sikorsky from stepping into the VH-3D’s shoes lies with the VH-92’s Mission Communication System (MCS). The MCS provides secure, encrypted communication at very high data rates without interruption anywhere in the world. It enables the President, Vice President or other senior officials to stay in contact with the government’s command structure (including the National Command Authority that directs U.S. nuclear deterrents) while airborne and on the move."

Nothing, its basically pytorch with an Apple logo.
Just keep making things and research whatever you run into that you don't already know (tip: pick projects where you're going to have to research more things if you want to learn more). I don't think you're actually hindered by not being a professional SWE - I've learned more just from hacking around with personal projects than I ever have from writing code for my employers. There's definitely going to be some professional tooling and conventions that you'll miss out on, but those are only important for programming in professional settings, not for making things in general.

Contributing to open source projects is a good way to get exposure to new patterns too.
I maintain an OSS that is 10x smaller than the author of the post and I have experienced the same absurd community behavior.

That tracks with my experiences in life. It's why you see constant streams of fight videos coming from fast food places and not Ruth's Chris. Or Walmart, and less so Target or Pier One.

It's also why I quit listing things for free on Craigslist or FB. The absolute dregs of society come out to play. They'll demand you bring it to them, or that you hold it til they're ready, etc. And if someone else got it first, expect to receive a slew of hate messages. Not worth any of the hassle anymore.
I love this framing.

My experience of people like this uncle is also that they have generally never done something like running kids sporting events, and in some cases outwardly signal that such work would be beneath them. (Not saying this is true for your uncle, but it is in some of my experiences.)
Ironically, it hurts their business overall (unless control of employees is something they intrinsically value).

From that stackexchange link:

> Another thing that can happen in 4 dimensional space but not 3 is that you can have two planes which only intersect at the origin (and nowhere else.) In 3 dimensions you'd get at least a line in the intersection.

I tried to envisage how that could be, but failed miserably.
That's literally just all the population of India, an autocratic state where they turn off Internet for the entire population when kids take tests to curb cheating. We don't want to be a country like that.
Isn't that exactly what the Unicode collation algorithm is?

https://unicode.org/reports/tr10

tl;dr from its wikipedia page:

> The Unicode collation algorithm (UCA) is an algorithm defined in Unicode Technical Report #10, which is a customizable method to produce binary keys from strings representing text in any writing system and language that can be represented with Unicode. These keys can then be efficiently compared byte by byte in order to collate or sort them according to the rules of the language, with options for ignoring case, accents, etc

What would you say to someone who responds that AI art only exists because of training data stolen from unpaid artists?
This article was a joy to read, both for explanations and visuals.
I'm not knowledgeable at all in visual generatio but I'm now wondering about other uses to extend the method.

What other shapes can be coupled (with the technique to create those various storms) in order to create large-scale transitions, where for example a large vortex would follow a sigmoid over the other zones.

Or even in what subtle ways could the visuals follow the envelope of a Hans-Zimmeresque audio background..

Thanks for having shared this blog!
I'm pretty sure the constitution was not written for slaves and no "originalist" stance would consider them. This is a silly "gotcha" that you just made up so you can get mad.
Prescient.
How do you think humans are doing this this if you don't think machines can ever do anything similar?
Open Source is great, but there should be a clear delimitation between users and maintainers. Like you want to contribute, make sure that you’ve read the guide and present your patch as it’s stated. You want to file a bug, fill this form. You have an idea, go on this board and see if something similar has not been posted already. If yes, add your vote. You can’t build a project with the whole world micromanaging you.
The Internet is a propaganda machine, and the US and its pesky First Amendment actually allows foreign governments to post whatever propaganda they want on there and for US Citizens to consume it if they choose to.

(Note: There are exceptions for anything the government classifies as "terrorism")
Yeah. There is an aspect of "case by case basis" to it, as sometimes people are just frustrated and venting a bit. As long as they're not being destructive arseholes while doing it, it can be excusable.

But the whole "destructive arsehole" approach is over that line, and needs dealing with accordingly.
I'm pretty sure that SiFive isn't allowed to sell their RISC-V core designs to any Chinese company already.

All Chinese RISC-V core designs have been proprietary designs thus far.

Because RISC-V ISA is open standard, there's nothing else the US government can control.

What is ML, Sir?
Do you trust LLM so much that you don't check what it writes before sending the email?

LLMs can write better English, but the curating step is still critical, because it also produces a lot of garbage.
Ok now add in the $210 trillion in unfunded liabilities that aren't part of the national debt. And mix in a little wage gap, AI impact, political divide, foreign conflicts, wars and military spending. Oh and the current annual interest expense is about 38% of all federal individual and Corp tax revenue.

How do you service the debt? You print and print. And then that causes more unrest. You can't default and you can't keep rates high enough for long to matter on inflation. Because you have to print to service the debt which only grows with higher rates and time, which you have less of when unrest grows.

Hyperbole isn't a knife. Any more than a political cartoonist's brush. It is satire. Biting humor.

The more ridiculous the caricature, the less you are supposed to take the details literally.

The "culprit" is a lightening rod. Taking the heat for what is obviously the result of a lot of people's seemingly poor or unfortunate judgements. Google search was a thing of beauty. Now it is an ugly swamp I have personally stopped trying to wade through.
The two-party system is a blight on democracy. You ever read George Washington's farewell address?

Why does the US bend over for one of the worst allies we've ever had. Who takes our money and constantly, publicly spits in our face, has their leaders come to our country to campaign against our own elected leaders, throws huge public hissy fits when we decide to sanction a division of their army notorious for rapes and brutal killings, never listens to any advice we give them, breaks all our rules, and expects a handout in the end, and uses our own money to buy off our own politicians through a lobbying group?

Can't wait for us to be rid of them

Maybe you only need a small bit on the flex (main CPU and the DDR to prove signal integrity?), and the rest can just go on an ugly quick PCB for software validation and bringup. Stuff it with test points, current shunt points, larger parts for easy probing, add some mounting holes too fasten it to a test rig, whatever.

Then just glomp the flex down to the test PCB with some nice Samtec connectors (you can enough free samples for a small batch of test units even) or an edge connector on the stiffener.
I've got 20+ devices running ESPHome, about 3/4 of them are part of my Home Assistant network, and maybe 6 or so that are standalone and just using ESPHome to talk to MQTT for other stuff (cheap Chinese weather station that I replaced the insides of with an ESP32, etc). I've got my rain water tanks monitored, my soil moisture in my greenhouse, the temperature and humidity in all different parts of the house, air quality in the kitchen and kids rooms, etc etc.

It's such an underrated project. In literally 5 minutes and with $10 of hardware and no programming at all, you can build your own IoT devices in your home and get real-time data on anything you want on your property.
The man who killed Google .* is its CEO.

To name a few.
Letting PMs making cardinal decisions, contradict with others, then renaming and rebranding same functionality shutting down popular products on the way.

Google cloud is a sad example of how a better product failed to take over the market, despite the fact the buyers are tech savvy and appreciate great technology.

Waymo is a complete failure, it runs, indeed, but it takes roughly a million dollars per car for the equipment and assembly, so it’s easy to see its lack of sustainability.

At last, Transformers, an invention made in Google, became its biggest threat.

No unified strategy that combines and integrates all parties and plans, so it seems. And it is sad. Very very sad.
It's not a crock of shit, it's borne out by years of experience.

Lawyers must attend school to get licensed, and of course no one reads case briefs as children. But good lawyers very likely did show an interest in parallel skills such as logic, rules, justice before they got to law school.

No one talked about "children," the comment was about experience before starting university. That includes about 12 years of school, and maybe experimenting at home. I started to learn programming in high school (as did Bill Gates, at around the same time), then continued that interest and study in college.

I think you will find that many of the people we consider "good programmers" did indeed start learning to program before entering university, or did it on the side while studying something else. A computer science degree is nice to have but by itself it's not sufficient to get to even "good at programming."
When the marginal cost of creating another copy is essentially $0, the market price for the product tends towards zero. People are then willing to pay more for the convenience of having the product readily available than for the product itself.

People pay for streaming services and buy stuff from app stores, because it's convenient. But if the service is not convenient enough, the catalog is too narrow, or the price is too high, piracy and free alternatives start looking more attractive.

Pros and cons? As you increase in seniority your bonus ranges can grow significantly faster than your base salary, so while some years might be great, others may not be. And then if you leave mid-way though a year you miss out on any "bonus" you would have received if you stayed the entire way.

Perhaps, but isn't the value of Kagi that it's user-tunable? If you open a page and it's distasteful to you, you can remove it from future searches, and you can uprank the sites you find useful. Related, no idea if they actually do it, but presumably, Kagi is getting signal from that about what people find useful, and integrating that into their rankings.

If I run into SEO crap on Google, I'm not sure they ever know I hated it and went elsewhere. They see that I searched and I clicked, and they got their money and don't care.

First off the rank, Bill Gates, is genuine (to the best of my knowledge) in his efforts to address global disease etc. In this he appears to be relatively effective in the sense that much of the money going in to this venture is having an on the ground real world spend on the target problem.

Then there's performative philanthropy.

How the Ultrawealthy Use Private Foundations to Bank Millions in Tax Deductions While Giving the Public Little in Return

https://www.propublica.org/article/how-private-nonprofits-ul...

It’s a simple bargain: The rich get huge tax breaks by donating art, property and company shares to benefit the public. But some donors collect millions while offering little or no public access.

There are many such articles and there are a number of variations on a theme; money goes to Foundation, Foundation has high costs for services provided by other companies owned by family and friends, money is recirculated within a closed system with less money going to any actual charity work than taxes that might other wise be paid. Throw in a bit of dark money laundering, buying fame and good will, etc.

There are real philanthropists, there's also a lot of other activity masquerading as charity.
They also had paid developers working on Apache Spark.

As well as Apache Cassandra before they switched to FoundationDB which is still open-source and maintained.
What I don't understand about this explanation is that Google's results are abysmal compared to e.g. DuckDuckGo or even Brave search. (I haven't tried Kagi, but people here rave about it as well.) Sure, all the SEO is targeting googlebot, but Google has by far more resources to mitigate SEO spam than just about anyone else. If this is the full explanation, couldn't Google just copy the strategies the (much) smaller rivals are using?
* An ENEMY STATE has controlling influence of a widely used social network in the USA. People's minds are influenced by it .. "You are what you eat" holds for what you read/watch and consequently think

* This legislation won't lose Biden the election, banning abortion by an insurrectionist will win it

* We are in a country that needs people to work together to be a successful country - we are big and highly populated democracy

* Rugged individualism - "me first" - is easily attacked by influencers, subject to divide-and-conquer techniques. From marketing to foreign influence, it is a weakness.

* Healthcare (even as expensive as it still is), reproductive rights, free ability to vote, and ability to have civil-war-free existence in our lifetimes are contingent on a healthily functioning government.

* To support OUR STATE we must find a middle ground of unity. We must recognize the forces that divide us. We must choose the path to that maintains our ever-evolving sense of personal "freedom". We must be good citizens.

I suspected there were some emulation libraries out there because I recently upgraded the MMI in my i3 and went sniffing around in their ROM packages <https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?p=25544316#...> to see what's up. It seems they have a dedicated chip for infotainment <https://www.sunplus.com/products/sphe8388.asp> running an ARM CPU and then just package the Airplay and Android Auto emulation libraries combined with Qt and libinput shims for translating the car's head unit inputs down into normal Linux events

However, it's pretty janky (only connecting to my phone about half the time without restarting the MMI :-( ) and their Linux distribution skills could really benefit from some "adult supervision" as well as my firm belief that modding cars should really be done via open source and not "order from the Internet, plug into your car, pray"

I could be wrong but it doesn't look like a real place to me. It's purportedly 3 miles from Stanford shopping center, so almost certainly supposed to be Tesla's engineering HQ, but it looks like it's surrounded by a dense city rather to than an office park that from satellite view looks like mostly parking. Now I haven't been back to Palo Alto much since I graduated from undergrad 15 years ago, but I doubt that Page Mill Road now has the built environment of Lakeview, Chicago...

Edit: actually this is probably Tesla projecting what Page Mill road will look like when this finally comes out in 2525....

This is one of the posts where I just can't go away without commenting. I will be always on the side of the open-source developer basically in any situation. BUT (of course there is "but") in the post about selling plugin (Why I'm Charging What I'm Charging) author stated that he is made decision based on the fact that he bought Mac for developing Apple Silicon support. I will not pretend that I read everything in both posts and even fully understand cross-platform part in the project BUT as Apple hater I will say that author could just drop Mac support as alternative. Again I don't know if author's project can run on Windows ARM and if he ever bought Project Volterra. So if Mac made you paywall your plugin than sell it to Mac users and leave Win\Linux open source.

Same here, plus a dozen or so random ESP32 variants just sitting in my electronics parts box because they're so cheap. It's incredibly freeing to just have all that hardware available at arms reach whenever you have an idea. They're surprisingly reliable and with modules like the sprinkler controller, they can be programmed to be independent so that they keep running as long as they have power. It took me months to realize that HomeAssistant microSD card had failed last time because all of my hydroponics gear just kept running.

By far the biggest time consumer has been wiring them up to DC/DC converters to drive relays in a waterproof Sockitbox. Another really useful part to keep around are wire terminal breakout boards: https://www.amazon.com/whiteeeen-Development-Expansion-ESP-W...
