This isn't a bug - at least not until someone can explain how we can fix it.

It is indeed a bug, for John Deere has sold millions of farmers gear dependent upon cm positioning, each farmer spending enormous amounts pf capital for this gear, made enormous promises predicated upon this, and so clearly it isn't impossible.

Right?

I ran a stressed app some years ago. We only had a wee little backend because our revenue was v.low, but we wanted to do stuff like sleep inside and eat, and so were motivated to cut costs to make profit.

What I did was make a table of all the queries that were being run on my backend, and I ordered them by the number of times that they were called and the cost of calling them (I honestly can't remember the measure I used for that but it was like cputime*memory or similar). I then did two things for the top queries.

1) Optimised them where I could.

2) Looked for where they were being used and tried to stop it.

(2) was very successful.

I've written similar comments in other forums and have gotten a similar response. To me, global warming is on average true, but doesn't encompass the full range of negative local impacts.

Climate change feels euphemistic compared to climate instability. Like, all things change, so it's chill, right? I like "instability" because it feels like the time of chaos and contempt that the scientific consensus tells us we're facing.

But... then I realize I'm wordsmithing a problem. While rhetoric is important and all, I think many of our current issues get over-talked and under-actioned. I don't know that the wording is significant relative to other barriers to bringing about change.

It may be annoying to assemble the machine with memory modules on the back of the board, but as far as manufacturing the board this connector is ideal for putting memory on the back: it's just exposed pads on the motherboard, no soldered connector. So it's even simpler to manufacture than something like putting a M.2 slot on the back.

One thing I learned about recently was that clothes now are a single size where clothing from the past had features that allowed changes in weight and size without needing to throw the clothes away.

It might be time to look at adjustable clothing styles again, but it would require a fashion change as there isn't much that can be done to a t-shirt to make it "adjustable".

It is. Who benefits from rage? It encourages clicking through on a link, commenting on an article, or reflexively voting for a candidate in an election.

Assuming this thing really works, warehouse jobs are done within 10 years tops. You'll have 2 techs to prop these things up when they break down or do light maintenance.

On one hand this is a great thing for humanity since these robots can't die from exhaustion or unsafe warehouse conditions which are rampant in the industry unfortunately. But it's going to look very bad for anyone doing manual labor.

There's no intrinsic reason why it can't be.

It entirely depends on how many externalities are created as debt to the future in order to ship blueberries around the world. Internalize those externalities and the grinding force of the market will eventually eliminate or mitigate them.

The future we should all be striving for is one of extreme abundance for everyone, not forcing everyone into hair shirts.

Global income inequality has slightly decreased since 2000 [1] due to globalization. For the same reason, quality of life has greatly equalized across the world. The utility gained from switching between flying coach and flying a private jet is less than the utility gained getting access to electricity or antibiotics. If you want equality, you should want capitalism.

I'd perfer to see many positions within STEM so neither of us can cherrypick.

Do you have a real article with real data? This is just a post by some person on LinkedIn. It doesn't provide any background or support for the claims given. It even misuses the aggregate wage gap number from the BLS to apply at the job level...

"The term “gender pay gap” describes the disparity between what men and women earn in the workforce. Women earn, on average, 82% less than men do in the same job in the United States."

Perhaps you have some data from an authority like the BLS?

Before the Russian/Ukraine war, I worked for a US company that did business operations on Russian cloud providers - one (very major one I don't want to name here publicly) had their main support in some sketchy all-russian telegram channel that I only could access via my personal device. You'd type your issue in english, get a bunch of russian responses, and then sometimes hours/days later your issue would mysteriously vanish.

The point of the investigations was to determine if any rules were broken, and potentially to propose new rules if something bad happened that didn't break the rules.

It turned out no rules were broken, and while things got weird for a short time, ultimately the underlying cause was a confluence of self-delusion and a couple traders being in truly irresponsible positions (and paying for it). No further action was deemed necessary.

I like to think of reality is a wide highway, and we have a lot of flexibility in the lane we pick in most cases, and other times we're funneled down to a single lane.

When systems are built on top of systems built on top of systems, cause and effect get lost in multiple levels of hysteresis.

This again leads me to believe that we as humans have not and may not evolve past the |individual| and breach the theoretical line between what is good for one (me) and what is good for all (everyone).

Only when we as humans evolve our philosophy of existence in a manner which puts our continuity above all else, will we progress to our next universal evolutionary jump.

Until then only modest progress will continue slowly understanding limitations of physical matter (resource depletion and renewing), social strife churning at a snail's pace (the entire world is uneven at many levels socio-economically), war among ourselves will continue (instead of protection from outside or unknown source, we force offensive military campaigns to manage more of the above), and lastly academia has been inundated with the likes of Catholic Hereticism in the likes of Galileo style subjection.

We're nowhere close to evolving as a species on the whole. Combined with the perceived ideology that (right now especially), rigid frustration abounds in various social, work and familial circles simply due to the nature of our current macroeconomics. It's unfathomable to me that the grander picture is always blurred to the current state of existence.

About all I really use Copilot for is auto-completing console.log statements. That's most of what I like it to do. I don't need an AI to write code for me. I already know the code I'm writing better than the AI does. Sometimes the AI guesses what I'm about to write and fills it in, and sometimes I let it, but I don't trust based on my experience with it, and then I have to read a paragraphs length of code to make sure it's right before I allow it, and it's usually wrong so I've just wasted some time thanks to the AI. It gets it wrong more often than it gets anything complicated right, and often suggests buggy code. I can't really see paying for that for myself. I don't think auto-completing console.log statements is worth $20/month.
Let's stop pretending stock prices still have any strong correlation with the real world.

I'll come find you on Github, but I'd certainly be interested in getting involved in a Metrowerks compatible linker. The BeOS toolchain suffers from being so old that nothing modern compiles anymore and so this combined with other projects might make a replacement more viable. Because BeOS PowerPC uses PEF as the linker and a load of the support code is in the form of object code (they pretend to be static libs, but they are just object files) and as the API is in C++ and uses whatever the MW standard mangling was, replacing the linker without the object file format is not really viable.

One flaw in your comment seems to be the assumption that "superiority" is a one-axis quality. You could have a group where everyone is superior, just at different things.
Much of the US can grow cotton without irrigation. So in effect it can use effectively zero water in some places and a great deal in others.

People assume water is in a limited supply simply because they live in an area poorly suited to human habitation. Instead there’s more than a 10x difference in annual precipitation between the dryer areas and wet areas of the US: https://www.eldoradoweather.com/climate/US%20Climate%20Maps/...

Yes, there are male chessplayers who mistreat females -- that is unfortunately true for any activity. Institutionally, however, there is heavy discrimination in favor of females, even though chess is a mental game. At big open tournaments there are often prizes reserved for women, and there are women-only tournaments and a women's national and world championships. There are no male-only tournaments (I'm not saying there should be). For a given level of chess ability (as measured by Elo rating), a female can make considerably more money than a male, whether through tournament prizes or as a streamer.

And for a child, both machines would be entirely obsolete by the time the child grew up and entered the workforce, so I would question how much advantage you were really buying.

Never tried those, so I couldn't say. I guess it would.

Even so, creating all the abstractions needed to implement even regular matrix multiplication in Spiral in a generic fashion took me two months, so I'd consider that good enough exercise.

You could do it a lot faster by specializing for specific matrix sizes, like in the Cuda examples repo by Nvidia, but then you'd miss the opportunity to do the tensor magic that I did in the playlist.
You probably didn’t scroll down very far then.

Did you already know that these ‘hardiness’ climate zones are only based on mean winter minimum temperature? They say nothing about drought prevalence, peak heat, or the timing, frequency and duration of cold snaps?

If you did, well, sure, this probably wouldn’t have been very informative. But for anyone for whom all that was news, this is pretty good information - and in particular is valuable context over and above just a raw map of the zones.
I love this. Looks great too. Hacker News is actually a great use case for this because it lets me get a quick overview of what's behind a link to help me decide if it's worth clicking on.

The Arc browser, which I've been using since they launched, has a very similar feature available. It's an AI summary of the target link, rather than a render preview, though, but it accomplishes the same task.

here is a counter-anecdotal evidence I moved to the US 25 years ago, still hate F with passion

I gave it a serious go. After trying to get used to F for 20-some years, I went back and set all my thermometers and online weather maps to Celsius.

Farenheit is an absurdly bad scale choice. It is needlessly granular for everyday use and feels wholly arbitrary.

32 degrees is freezing, so how far is 19 F from freezing? 32-19 ... ummm 13 degrees and that is as far as 32+19 ... ummm 51 degrees ... what are we talking about? -10 and +10 Celsius ...

I still don't know if 120F would burn my hands or not, if 150 F scalds or not. I have no sense about temperatures above 100F (and that one only because it is a threshold for fever)
> but the 800-pound gorilla in the room is climate change. Where I live, winters are 4.5 degrees warmer.

The George W. Bush administration (e.g. via Frank Luntz) advocated for the term "climate change" because Republican strategists wanted to leverage perceived uncertainty about global warming as much as possible.[0]

This is a PR effort that seems to have largely succeeded (both in adoption and its goals) and it's unfortunate that when we are literally talking about warming we adopt a term that is less precise; you are talking about global warming here.
