The opinion is not nearly as broad as certain sources say it is. What it actually says is that immunity as to "core" powers is absolute, but it doesn't define the scope of those powers. It says other official powers have some immunity, but are not immune basically if allowing the prosecution wouldn't impair future presidents. Those are both exceptions that are larger than the rule.

Some are saying it is broader than it is because they want charges to be dismissed. Others are saying it's broader because they want a more powerful executive. Others are saying it try to make the court look bad, or to get votes. Some are saying it because they're mistaken / confused. On 4 out of 5 counts, the court remanded for further proceedings without deciding whether Trump has immunity. All of these voices could have easily come out with a different take, claiming victory and saying he will likely be convicted on most counts.

Yeah, it's a pretty weird take. I would agree if they said "a lot of people don't know what CPU limits are and set them without thinking", but "you should never use them" doesn't make any sense. For example, every computer anyone has ever used has a CPU limit. There isn't infinite CPU inside your computer. That's a CPU limit.

The mistake that surprises people is "I'm going to tell my app it can use 128 CPUs but I'm setting the CPU limit to 1." OK, well, then your app is going to be asleep 127/128th of the time. It's a surprise because the app reads /proc/cpuinfo to guess how many CPUs you have, but ... that is not the correct algorithm.

Another thing is imagining that usage spikes are going to occur randomly throughout time. If app A is under heavy use, it can steal app B's CPU shares, because who would use app A and app B at the same time? Most of the time they're both idle, so it's a waste to reserve 1 CPU for app A and 1 CPU for app B, and have app A throttled while app B is idle. But you'll probably find that everything you host is popular from 9am to 5pm local time, and for 16 hours a day you are using 0% CPU and for 8 hours a day you are using 200% CPU. The idea is to guarantee some quality of service for both apps, even at busy times. The goal is not to maximize overall throughput.

You can tune your latency vs. throughput goals if all the apps are yours, but as soon as you have different teams, I doubt team B is going to say "sure we can get paged for high request latency as long as Team A is getting as much of the CPU as they can". That's what CPU limits are for, consistency when things get tough. Not for overall utilization.
Android existed (internally) before iOS, but to quote a google engineer working on it at the time, iOS released and they went "We’re going to have to start over."

> and open source-ish (Google still decides the roadmap)

Open source doesn't mean developed by committee, it means the source is released openly and under a permissive license. That is unquestionably done with android, to the point where competitors have taken that source and made competing phones without Google's involvement.
I agree. Every vendor is going to build software by making 90% of it a proprietary library and then 10% a wrapper around that which is useless to everyone. Also literally any application that uses authentication could argue that it’s a security concern to release code
We'd have to have numbers on how many drivers are operating their vehicles with cannabis in their system successfully every day to make a guess at whether it impairs driving enough to regulate it. Otherwise it's just correlation.
The mainstream alternative is still to not have a "backend-for-the-frontend". If you use something like Rails, django, nodejs, use React connected to them. Or directly to something like supabase. NextJS is the extra complexity nobody needs.

It is marketed as the solution to slow starts but React is slow so the solution is terrible over-engineered.

A much better fix is to remove React and use something that is already fast like solidjs or Lit. There are much better UI Kits in Lit that I have seen in React and in the end it is just JS so the same people that can could React, can code Lit and SolidJS.
Thanks for sharing.

The rest of the industry disagrees with you. PDF is the standard for reports, it is not meant to be a web format. You could definitely do something like arxiv where you could make an HTML version but again the standard is a PDF so it can be a challenge to get graphics/charts have the same meaning and scope of view when the format of a page has changed.

Do you not realize when you're reading literal propaganda? This quote is but one section from there, which I clicked to because it had a silly heading - and it delivered.

---

A consensus has formed among the growing community of AHI sufferers that the U.S. government — and the CIA in particular — is hiding the full extent of what it knows about the source of Havana Syndrome. The victims offer two general hypotheses as to why. The first is that releasing the full intelligence around Russian involvement might be so shocking as to convince the American people and their representatives that Moscow has committed an act of war against the United States, thereby raising thorny questions as to how a nuclear power fond of showing off its hypersonic missiles ought to be made to pay.

---

Okay, so Russia is running around randomly attacking low level embassy workers, and the US knows this and is playing PR for Russia, because they're worried about US citizens viewing Russia negatively. I'm sure there's far more absurd mental gymnastics in there as well, as that was literally from the first section I clicked to. When we get out of this clown world era and back to something vaguely resembling normalcy, there's about a 100% chance that these "citizen investigative journalists" are mostly all going to end up having been little more than Operation Mockingbird 2.0.

Yes, exactly. Pulling a huge npm dependency is usually not a problem if they didn't go out of their way to make it super hard to analyze at build time.

This is tree shaking though, dead code elimination means it will find code that isn't used at all and remove it - for example you might have if (DEV) {...}, and DEV is static false at build time, the whole if is removed.

So first it performs dead code elimination, then it removes unused imports, and then it calculates what is actually needed for your imports and removes everything else.
I am very annoyed how effortless this seems for you
Oops, fixed that. (But as far as I know even performance-oriented Scheme compilers like Bigloo don't generate very efficient code nor do they auto-vectorize. I don't think there is any Scheme compiler that is in the same league as clang performance wise, but I'm happy to be corrected on that.)

CO2/capita numbers matter from an assigning blame point of view, but physics doesn't care if a ton of CO2 is emitted by one person or ten people.

It's a bad argument to do nothing, but it's also not completely wrong. At this point we could turn off Europe and the USA and would still blow past 800ppm CO2 by 2100.

Hey! Manik here, one of the co-founders of Tegon. Would love to know what are the sources whose context is generally missing in issues in your experience?
I can give examples of things I think fit that, but not offer
arguments - because some people can claim "meaning" in almost
anything.

A fairly clear one would be widespread "over-zealous use of
intellectual property technology to stifle culture". It's getting
easier to do with all kinds of digital handcuffs, TPMs, and mechanisms
that take agency and meaning away from the owner of a computer and
place it in the hands of who really controls the computer. It's
concomitant with "surveillance capitalism" but I think marks a
qualitative change from computers as enabling tools in the 20th
century, to systems of social control in the 21st. That marks a
significant change in the "meaning" of computers qua purpose, optimism
and opportunity (for everyone not just geeks and developers.) I feel
quite sure artists who worry about AI would say similar but in a
different way.

Okay. No worries. I don't have time for it either. :)

I see that you are discouraged. I say this in the kindest way possible: have you considered that maybe the barriers you perceive are only there in your own mind?

> the copyright owners of publications are not even the scientific institutions that produce those materials

"COPYRIGHT UNDER THE INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT UNION, 1959 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED by THE ORIENTAL INSTITUTE, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS" is what the dictionary itself says.

These are the people behind the "The Electronic Publications Initiative of the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures"[1]. (as I learned by clicking the "terms of use" button next to the download links of the dictionary.) Based on that it seems they wouldn't want you to host the files on your own site, and they don't want you to sell copies of their books, or profit from it in other ways but you could very likely just make the search system which refers people to the right page of their dictionary without copying their actual entries. That seems to be fair play both legally and on an emotional level. If you want a more integrated search experience that is where reaching out to them and hosting it on their own site could work.

I know nothing about assyriology and copyright things can indeed suck, but these people in particular seem to be good eggs. It is possible that secretly they are copyright Scrooge McDuck about their dictionary but if so they are going very weirdly about it.

"The former State Department secretary led the businessman by 5 percentage points among federal employees in a July poll by the Government Business Council, the research arm of Government Executive Media Group, with 42 percent of respondents saying they would vote for Clinton, compared to 37 percent who said the same for Trump."

I think it all depends on what tradeoffs you prefer. SaaS is more expensive, and I've seen many people get burned in various ways with it. I've never seen one get burned by self-hosting.

I self-host everything specifically because I remain in control of everything and I maintain physical custody of my data, and the software I'm relying on won't change underneath me. Maintenance isn't a big deal. When something goes wrong, I can fix it immediately rather than waiting a random amount of time for some external entity to do it. Setup costs don't matter to me because they're a one-time thing.

That said, I know people that I'd recommend SaaS instead of self-hosting to.
That's a blessing and a curse though for interactive applications. One FM transmitter can easily cover millions of people - and 20MHz of spectrum isn't very exciting spread over that many people in my eyes.

So the way to use it more effectively is to build more transmitter stations at a lower power, but at that point you're competing with cellular networks which have access to probably 10x the spectrum and already have a load of infra built out to support that.

For example, if you used FM for LTE/NR it would be completely congested 100% with even just signalling overhead of the time apart from very rural areas (as suddenly everyone's phone that has no service because of being out of the reach of any mast suddenly gets it - perhaps because of thick walls etc).

Similar if it was used for WiFi - the transmit power would have to be so low to avoid interference it would have no benefit over current spectrum (2.4GHz doesn't work in most places for this reason).

And rural areas already have starlink - which has 2GHz of downlink frequency alone (plus they can add more somewhat easily, which is impossible for FM).

Not really. If a self tail recursive function does not benefit from the optimisation that could be triggered by loopify, the generated code between the tail calls and the loop branch are almost exactly the same (some difference in code layout might happen). OCaml is already very good with that kind of code.
This pass is mostly about triggering other optimisations. Another thing is that it is applied before inlining. So if a potential for that where triggered by inlining, we might want to go through the whole process of optimizing that function. This is not something that we do by default since it is quite expensive. Also we often prefer when the performances are somewhat predictable. And inlining is notably not really predictable by default. So if you were to rely on that kind of change to do some magic on your code, maybe it would be a better idea to specify it. (with the @@loop attribute).

This has the obvious problem that you need to know a lot of details about the compiler to get the best performances, but this is the reasoning around that decision for now.
50% accuracy out of the gate is incredibly good for investment analysis.

Agree with your sentiment. But overseeing elections is not the official duty of either Trump or Biden, that goes to individual states. And using the military to neutralize political opponents is only extreme if Biden does it. Trump openly wants military tribunals for treason against his opponents, which is his way of grasping for jurisdiction in ordering military intervention in the halls of power.

That assumes that there aren't strong psychological/cultural forces acting against rationality.

Like not wanting to hire non-white people.

Like not wanting to hire people who are "too old"/"too young" for the field.

Like not wanting to make sure that your employees are well-treated, satisfied with their jobs, and healthy enough mentally and physically to concentrate on the job regularly.

> But shouldn’t be high in public if it’s going to inconvenience others or put others at risk.

Laws vary, but public intoxication is usually a misdemeanor. Driving while intoxicated can be a felony. Working while intoxicated can be a fireable offense. We have existing frameworks to deal with these cases.

Babies and small children are sometimes sources of inconvenience in public. As are people who walk slowly. And tourists. And photographers. And dogs. And (especially) the people who think it is reasonable to push their cart down the middle of the aisle and leave it there while they decide which of "fifty kinds of breakfast cereals, with different names, whose ingredients all read exactly the same", they will choose to ensicken their children with.

The convenience objection sounds like a slight incremental discomfort to me.

I get it though. I am pro-legalization also. I believe it's proper and correct for government to have no role in the freely-chosen personal and private activities of competent adults. But I don't want to deal with people in public being any stupider (more graciously, "less conscientious and aware") than they are already.

That said, I'd much rather deal with a hundred people high on cannabis, lsd, mdma, and/or psilocybin, than a dozen people who are noticeably drunk on alcohol. I'm hoping for social preference to shift to newly-legalized intoxicants, which are better for everyone in all respects, than the status quo. And that these early years are just a period of adjustment and recalibration.
There are several conflated ideas in conflict here. First lets be clear and define 10x work as work on something very impactful, say a business idea, an important piece of art, or a scientific breakthrough. My model here could be Richard Feynman for example. If you 'stumble' on one of these ideas (e.g. after potentially years of routine, hard work training you to have a) the skills required to act on it and b) the knowledge to notice it) the by all means, drop the routine and let the excitement take you.
Any project such as this will have such a phase. Note however that the routine 'grind' (hate that word) was required to get there, and at some point, the proof of concept will be done, and the routine will be required again to keep it going and get it fully out into the world.

I used to hate routine by my kids showed me how necessary it is. Maintenance is essential to life. Routines get the maintenance done, and free up your brain to have ideas and energy for the hard work. An observation: Where I work there is a Nobel laureate who takes walks at almost the same time every day (past my window). I would think he knows about '10x work', and also about the utility of routine.
> Is there any way to short Open AI and this nonsense that AGI is round the corner?

NVDA is a decent proxy for OpenAI, their market cap would evaporate if big tech stopped buying.
I always felt morning routines were a bit ridiculous, but the thing is if you have a regular job to you go to, you kind of automatically end up with a routine and it's easy to take that for granted, and on top of that there are so many external forces that ensure you keep working that choices don't matter very much.

It's a stark contrast when you're self-employed and there are zero things to provide structure to your days unless you them there yourself. It's a life circumstance that provides you with a lot more agency, and just how you structure the day can have a fairly tangible impact on not only your productivity, but also your physical and mental well-being

It's a possibility but I'm not using those myself so I don't have good intuition on what is a good UI for that.

A relatively simple thing would be to add "preview block" which e.g. for mermaid blocks would add a panel with rendered diagram.

A much more complicated solution would be to add codemirror view which renders diagram when cursor is outside the markup and switches to editing when inside markup.

But that's significantly more complicated.
The standard guarantees that you can get a pointer to an object in the map and this pointer will remain valid after rehashing and insertion/deletion of other elements. That basically forces implementers to use “buckets with linked lists”, also known as separate chaining. This is not cache friendly (and also suffers from excessive allocation). Other hash map implementations like abseil's don't provide this guarantee so they can put everything right there inline, which is much more efficient.
