Actually I did. By excluding one particular category of things. I can provide many other exclusions. General exclusions + some obligations is pretty much how laws of warfare are defined. Which is how nations agreed to wage wars more "humanely" in the past, including Israel.

And I think Israel should not wage its extermination campaign at all, btw. So I simply don't agree with the premise of your question, personally.
Google has produced a number of quite good tools. See also Bazel, for instance.

During my time there, I was genuinely impressed by the quality of many of the internal tools. E.g. it took GitHub code review tools a long time to get on par with Google's internal code review tools from 2015.
lol, you realize markets are closed right? this is all low volume after market trading.
You have probably never even considered writing a function that calls another, not yet defined function, and just moving on because your trail of thought is headed elsewhere at that very moment. Fifteen minutes later you are testing your new function and the debugger breaks on the call to your still undefined function. "Oh right", you think, "I need to transmogrify the foo here". So you define the transmogrify-foo function and continue debugging right there.

This isn't contrived or exotic in any way. It's just second nature when writing lisp in an interactive fashion.
I see this in TV shows all the time and have wondered how real it is. It would be great if there were better privacy legislation regarding car-based data (regarding gathering of data, opting out, or notification of policies), but it's no surprise the government isn't pursuing this legislation since it would affect their intelligence-gathering capabilities.

A person who is actually working within an industrialized economy produces at least ten times more than what is needed to sustain them. Your attitude is exactly what the communist rulers in the political class and the capitalist rulers in the business and banking class want the serfs to believe. They work together as brothers when it is against the common man.

I say it is completely groundless fear. Even non-talented and non-gifted persons can achieve extreme productivity with modern tools and training.
This is neither how economics nor politics works. For one, Amazon actually advocates for a higher minimum wage.

We really need to stop treating this as such a "gotcha!" The whole idea of welfare is that it is supposed to go to people who need it - working or not.

Are people on Food Stamps always going to be unemployed? No? Then are they are going to be employed somewhere? Am I supposed to be mad that these programs are working as designed?

Food stamps and medicaid in particular are also explicitly tied to family need. Unless Amazon is going to start paying someone with a family of 5 more than a person with a family of 3, these criteria are always going to be malleable. (In our state, Medicaid eligibility goes up to $80k in income and up to $100k for food stamps!)

As a proud taxpayer, I am happy my money is going towards working families. I would be more concerned had it not. And I am not going to pretend to be shocked that the beneficiaries work in (surprise) low-income jobs.
this is super neat! how did you set up your fonts folder? what tooling did you use?

Oh wow, I didn't know people did that.
That’s terrible news… unclear how deep and subtle the ramifications will be, but I guess it does highlight that propaganda has never been more empowered.
The underlying mechanism is that supply (of stocks) will decrease.
The boost in prize is an anticipation of the result.

In poor economic theory, there shouldn't be any change, but if you consider behavioral economics, and regulations that introduct inefficiencies it explains the change in price.

It also communicates to investors (through action) the plan, apetite for risk, and investment opportunities (for the company) moving forward.
One of the primary reasons companies split their stock is to keep the price in a more natural trading range where there's likely to be more liquidity.

An n-way stock split in theory should reduce the price by a factor of n (that is, a 2:1 split ought to halve the price) but what we're seeing now is likely just price discovery based on the bullish earnings report.

I also don't disagree with that.

That’s a very limited perspective. While bulk of district spend (US) is salaries, buildings, pensions, busses, cafeterias etc. there is still a substantial spend on educational materials. It’s a tiny % of the overall budget, but the larger school districts have budgets in many _billions_.

Smartboards and 3d printers etc. got popular because they came from a DIFFERENT budget - these were capital expenses.

My personal experience (ed-tech reaching ~15% of school districts) is that it is impossible to sell a solution to a district _without_ support of the teaching and learning team - i.e. teachers. And if you do, it’s impossible to get a renewal.

Lastly, 9 out of 10 startups fail. It’s not just ed-tech.
> Given that has proven to be a completely false assumption

This part is correct. The problem is in how to deal with this. If you want the compiler to correctly deal with code having undefined behavior, often the only possibility is to assume that all code has undefined behavior. That means, almost every operation gets a runtime branch. That is completely incompatible with how modern hardware works.

The rest is wrong, but again, this is a common misconception. Language designers and compiler writers are not idiots, contrary to popular belief. UB as a concept exists for a reason. It's not for marginal performance boosts, it is to enable any compiler based transformation, and a notion of portability.
Thanks for coming up with a specific scenario for me.

We have game engines but no software motors. We do have generators though.

Seems like motors are smaller (or maybe less complex) than engines.

Engines came from steam motors too. Here's a distinction:

Is a steam engine a motor?

A steam motor is a form of steam engine used for light locomotives and light self-propelled motor cars used on railways. The origins of steam motor cars for railways go back to at least the 1850s, if not earlier, as experimental economizations for railways or railroads with marginal budgets.

Wild Ass Guess: Everyone OpenAI is negotiating with is likely considering how much they can gain from potential future revenue. This typically leads them to demand high rates.

However, this move flips the question: instead of asking how much they can make, they must consider what happens if their competitors partner with OpenAI. The concern then shifts to what competitors can achieve in the market that could threaten not just their economic interests but potentially their entire business model and worldview.

Suddenly, the desire to be the one partnering with OpenAI isn't just about accessing a lucrative revenue stream; it becomes a strategic imperative to mitigate risks and maintain competitive parity.
Does the partnership include the comment sections on their articles?

Very interesting and I'll have to read more to understand how it fully works, but _initially_ the space requirements doesn't seem too impressive? Am I missing something here? Is my calculation/assumption completely off? Maybe the solution here is more flexible?

One alternative approach for many of these problems is to start with a perfect minimal hash function which hashes your key into a unique number [0, N) and then have a packed array of size N where each element is of a fixed byte size. To look up the value you first use the hash function to get an index, and then you look up in the packed array. There's also no error rate here: This is exact.

PTHash (https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.10402) needs roughly ~4 bits per element to create a perfect minimal hash function.

> Store 1 billion web URLs and assign each of them one of a small number of categories values (n=8) in 2.22Gb (params include ν=8, κ=1, =0.1%; 19 bits per element)

Assuming that "n=8" here means "8 bits" we need 1GB (8 bits * billion) to represent all of the values, and then 500 MB for the hash function (4 bits * billion).

I also don't quite understand what "2.22Gb" here refers to. 19 bits * billion = 2.357 SI-giga bytes = 19 SI-giga bits = 2.212 gibi bytes.

> Store 1 billion DNA or RNA k-mers ("ACGTA...") and associate them with any of the ~500k bacterial IDs current described by NCBI in 6.93Gb (ν=62, κ=4, =0.1%; 59 bits per element)

"~500k bacterial ID" can be represented with 19 bits. 1 billion of these take ~2.3GB, and then we have the additional 500MB for the perfect hash function.

Another data structure which is even more fine-tuned for this problem space is Bumped Ribbon Retrieval (https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.01892) where they have <1% overhead over just storing the plain bit values.

EDIT: Aha! One thing I forgot about: The alternatives I mentioned above all have a construction cost. I've been playing with them in the 100k-1M range and they've all been pretty instant (<1s), but I don't have any experience in the billion range. Maybe it's too slow there?
I know these guys were US kids, but when I was at university, it did seem that foreign students from large population and highly competitive countries seemed to not have the same focus on honesty. I mean, I saw US kids cheating, but some of the foreign students would actually laugh at you for not cheating. I just took it as a difference in culture. The same way what would be considered a "bribe" in the US would just be "doing business" in some other cultures.
Yea, especially when their rational is DMs are the most asked for feature.

It doesn't. Even with insurance, etc. I doubt they spend this much. They pay below market for most positions I've seen (though their benefits are on a good level) so even with taxes, overheads and all I don't see where 500k would come from.

I'll remind you that the pro-Western Ukrainian governments held the water blockade for 8 years causing quite a lot of damage to Crimeans whom it ostensibly considers Ukrainian citizens under Russian occupation.

I'll quote the article titled "Ukraine’s water blockade of Crimea should stay, because it’s working" from "EuroMaidan Press"[0]:

"72% of the water from the North Crimean Channel was used for the irrigation of crops. And the absence of this water today causes difficulties for food production. ... in the last 50 years, when the irrigation functioned, the peninsula received a new layer of fertile land. However, in the last 5 years, this soil has not been moistened enough and is already degraded."

It's worth the reading if you haven't read it the first time I provided the link to it.

With this track record it's quite easy to imagine more drastic measures to solve the Crimean problem.

It's not a new thing either, here is a leader[1] of the Ukrainian nationalists (infamous UNA-UNSO) saying "Crimea will be Ukrainian or uninhabited" [2].

Cars are sufficiently dangerous to justify government interfence, but lets not go overboard - no need for realtime surveillance across a network: a local black box is sufficient, with adequate protocol and logs of each lawful access, maybe with the key on a government server so that no one with just local access can read the data without a record of that act...

I know it's never going to happen, but Nvidia really should spin off their consumer division - it's such a complete afterthought at this point. They are sitting on all of this amazing technology but just kind of stringing along the market at this point.
It's a matter of perspective, when I started out it was news when 10mb demos was allowed and it's just continued from that point until they said screw sizelimits. My main point is that 64kb more or less doesn't restrict you in terms of amount of code and you still have a fair bit of latitude for an artist to do whatever they want.

My reference on non-generated is that what is nowadays called chip musicians used to do 10-40kb mod's with regular tracker tools that would easily be compressed with an exe-packer to work out of the box for a 64k, logotypes,etc were commonly just palettized images (wasn't much of an issue for mode13 graphics and even early hi-color things).

But more than anything, the top-2 64k's (And some oldschool prods) at Revision probably were the ones with most experienced man-hours put into them.

As for Notch, it's basically the commercialized version of the Fairlight demotools. Also appending Zip's to .exe files is one of the oldest tricks in the book to package datafiles "nicely", works well since the central directory of a zip file is found from the end of a file and you can compile the exe separately and then just insert data-files by making a zip and appending it.

We should build compilers that insert these checks for us (if they cannot statically determine them unnecessary). The ability to omit these checks doesn't IMHO justify undefined behaviour.
Yes, you can surely improve things from C. C is not a benchmark for anything other than footguns per line of code.

The debug modes you mention are also available in various forms in C and C++ compilers. For example ASan and UBSan in clang will do exactly what you have described. The question is, then whether these belong in the language specification or left to individual tools.
