That's not so much a nightmare scenario as it is a car that's not fit for purpose. Making the car always obey the speed limit assumes that a) speed limits are always correct (they are definitely not) and b) there is never a valid reason to exceed the speed limit (also obviously wrong).

That's why this is a nightmare scenario. You have an unthinking, unfeeling machine enforcing laws, without regard for nuance or extenuating circumstances. Laws shouldn't work that way.

You might be right; that could be a more accurate branding. Strflow uses a model where notes are pushed into a single timeline and categorized with tags, so there isn’t a functionality to text a phone number that feeds into the app.
> C++ templates are not exactly known for their blazingly fast compilation speed.

Compared to what alternative that does the same thing, in C++?

Modern C++ compilers, as such, are slow as molasses, on multi-GHz hardware with huge L1 and L2 caches, whether your code uses templates or not.

I was excited for this standard a few years ago, but I've come to believe it's missing understanding of its domain.

For example, Dynamic Configs is an important and relevant concept yet it's only mentioned briefly in the team's meeting notes & blog. Similarly, the spec tries to define how an "experiment" is different from a feature flag, but ended up giving up and leaving their attempt as a rough draft
https://openfeature.dev/specification/sections/tracking.

IMO, feature flagging is a red herring for the larger problem of feature control. That perspective is not defined, so I'm doubtful the proposed standard will integrate well with the more advanced use-cases of enterprises, e.g., experimentation.
Ethics approval for a medical device is a completely different thing from EMC regulations (which is what normally people mean when talking about FCC and CE for a device).

"I can't imagine having to have each hardware iteration certified by the FCC."

Depending on your device and the magnitude of the changes, this might simply be the reality for you. This is why I always try to tell people that you need compliance at the table from the start or you really risk making life very difficult for yourself. Find yourself a compliance specialist or at least a hardware engineer who is familiar with the regulations.

EDIT: You CAN'T just iterate ad-infinitum for free without consequence like you do for software. This thinking and approach, only works in software land. No where else.

It would be ridiculous to build a house and having the builder iterate on your house over 2-3 years to finish it, no?

> yeah but what if "you insert an item" is literally hundreds of lines, and there are 3 layers of api functions below you? What if you need to to take other locks for example to apply backpressure / flush out data on the layers below?

Well- that's what software engineering is about. If insert an item to a shared data structure is hundreds of lines of code I'd say there's something very wrong. You shouldn't need to take another lock to create backpressure, e.g. look at Go's concurrency model.

I think it's a bad pattern as a rule. There are always situations where you break rules. My tip was for most of the situations where you don't do that and most of the people that shouldn't do that. If you know what you're doing, you understand concurrency very well and synchronization very well, then you probably don't need this tip. You can be a very smart and experienced developer and easily create stuff with rare deadlocks that's almost impossible to debug if you're not careful. I've fixed these sorts of issues in multiple code bases.

I've never worked on the Linux filesystem so I'm not going to tell them what to do. We'll have to assume the people working on that know what they're doing, otherwise it'd be a bit scary. Given that we don't see the Linux filesystem deadlocking - probably ok.

EDIT: I've given this rule to many junior/intermediate engineers and I've used it myself so I would say it is applicable to almost any situations where you need to use locking. It results in code is thread safe and simply can't deadlock. This other deadlocking code base I worked on would have been much cleaner if this rule was applied, and it could have been applied, and then it wouldn't deadlock once a year at one random customer site and take their system down. Again, like anything software, sometimes you do things differently in different situations, but maybe the generalization of the rule is you don't just sprinkle locks willy-nilly all over the place, you need to somehow rationalize/codify how the locks and structures work together in a way that guarantees no corner cases will lead to issues. And sure at the "expert" level there are many more patterns for certain situations.

There is evidence that inflammation is among the causes of depression:

So we need our toolchains to run in WASM, too. Haha, only serious.
For what it's worth, other major code editors Jetbrains and VS Code also offer real-time collaboration built in. For Jetbrains, it's a paid feature. For VS Code, it's free.

I love the VS Code implementation (haven't reviewed the other two). If I'm pairing with someone remotely, I don't have any issue having them download VS Code. We provide a config in our project repo for VS Code, so it's really quick for people to get set up enough to join the real-time collab session with me. `brew install visual-studio-code` and then `code .` in our repo, plus OAuth with Github to authenticate the collaboration feature.

I think it really is great. Makes pairing much easier, and really speeds up drugery like refactoring 500 cases where it doesn't quite make sense to do a codemod. It's not quite like the upgrade from Word97.exe to Google Docs since we have git, but it feels similarly amazing to "just" to be talking about some code, click the other user's icon to jump right to their cursor and help them get unstuck.

I personally bounce between VS Code, Xcode, and nvim+tmux, and I don't have a problem with keeping a "lowest common denominator" editor around for collaboration or pairing. I also keep a regular keyboard at my desk so I don't force people to type on my Glove80/Kinesis Advantage.
You should try to put more effort into expressing intelligence than cleverness, because this is just juvenile.
I’m not sure if I’m in the minority here but Matlab levels of tooling is an insult. Their guides were always two or three steps before being useful. Just enough to make you think whatever they were selling would solve your problems but never enough when really building a solution.

> I don't see anywhere in your citation how much of that money has been dispensed, or for what milestones.

I don't think milestones are public but I can guess that there was some money up front and that some money was attached to Starship launches. That actually explains why SpaceX is sending barely ready empty tubes on ballistic trajectories for no sensible reason whatsoever. And does stupid checkbox things like "opening bay doors" that barely work, even though there's nothing on both sides.

> $2.89 Billion would have paid for exactly one shuttle launch (https://www.space.com/11358-nasa-space-shuttle-program-cost-...). Sounds like a deal to me.

Depends if you are actually getting the thing or just brief illusion of hope of getting some part of the thing.

> An orbit regularizing burn is not a large obstacle compared to achieving orbital veloticy.

It is a key thing if you never re-lit your engines in vacuum and zero-g. They broke and exploded in earlier flights after relighting in way more favorable conditions.

> Flying rockets is less expensive than spending endless engineer hours testing on the ground and for something the size and flight profile of Starship, no ground testing can ever fully simulate the forces involved.

That would have been true. If SpaceX had computers Russians had in the 60-ties. Ability for modelling and simulations and to test things properly on the ground skyrocketed (pun intended) over last few decades. Be real with yourself. Don't but those excuses. They are half-assing it for the grant money they need rather sooner than later.

Because politics and money. Let's say the Department of Justice went after a bunch of tomato growers. Word is going to get around among the tomato growers, the companies that buy from them, the companies that distribute them, that these certain politicians are not to receive any campaign contributions. They will hire a lobbyist and go after them. So the politicians do not pressure the department of justice, and the administration does not make it a priority for the department of justice, or any of the organs of government. That's putting aside the cultural, racial, and the American political divide.

Your job as the top executive isn’t to get labor, it is to run a company (which sometimes involves getting labor). In order to do that you must manage your expenses.

If you overspend on your salary such that you put the company in a position where the company is begging for 4 months of your salary as runway, you have failed at your job and you demonstrably were irresponsible, reckless in your spending and unable to make tough choices to ensure survival. In other words, you were not worth $285k.
> DDR5 has a bit of ECC built in,

For me the most important aspect of ECC is not making the memory reliable. It's telling me the RAM is becoming unreliable, which you know because the number of errors detected and corrected is rising. DDR5 ECC does not provide that information.

Once you start seeing ECC RAM errors you know it might be the cause of system failures you see. Knowing a specific piece of hardware might be failing is far better than a random crash that might be caused by memory, or the CPU, or a software bug, or PCI bus failure and a zillion other things.

HDD SMART is the same thing. Once you see errors from a drive rising you know it won't be long before it fails. One of the negatives of SSD's is you don't get the information, so they fail without warning.

That aside, DDR5 ECC is not end to end. It might not be the RAM calls that are failing. It might be getting the bit to the pins on the chip, or the connector, or the memory bus, or the CPU RAM interface. CPU ECC covers all of that.

The first section on reliable sources isn't the primary focus of the article. It mainly serves to contrast how Gerard was willing to ignore rules on original research and conflicts of interest when it suited him. The post from another Wikipedia admin when he finally got banned is gold:

> “Seriously, everyone, what the fuck is wrong with us? … Reading through this discussion it seems that David has called the subject a neo-nazi, has significantly contributed to a NYT article described by other sources as a “hit piece”, disingenuously used Wikipedia to push his [point of view] despite a [conflict of interest] obvious to anyone with eyes, and we as a community are incapable of doing anything other than a warning? What the fuck is wrong with us?”

> After seven years, someone finally saw what was going on.

Eh, it's pretty big. I guess.
It looks like someone started with Intel's XED code (which relies on custom tables to specify instructions, and compiles that to C tables at compile time) and hand-minimized the code into a single file. I'm guessing it's designed to never have any more code added to it.

But the “eh it’s good enough” life of Europe and the country I grew up in is… well, too small for my dreams.

Suppose that someone tried to naively derive the leap year by dividing the current year by 4. There are some years that are divisible by 4 but that are nonetheless not leap years. If you fail to account for this in your succinct implementation then you might introduce a leap day that doesn't exist at some point. I know the table implementation seems really dumb, and it's not that hard to look up a correct algorithm for this, but it's a good example. If you build a table from some correct source then you can simply use that table instead of running a calculation. There are fewer than 30 leap years in the next 100 years, by which time something cataclysmic will happen that will completely erase the need for your code anyway. At least, you will be dead before you need to revise the code again. So it's reasonable to build a function with a table given the time-limited nature of the code and the desire to be visibly and explicitly correct. Sure you could add a unit test with the table and test the calculation, but that actually adds more code to maintain than just jamming the table directly into the function.
So, you admit you don't know the difference then.

> Salaries in Germany, France and UK for those same roles are 2x or sometimes 3x higher than those mentioned in the article.

Taxation. At 2x or 3x in France you'd already be at 41% income tax bracket. Then 45%.

And of course a country like France doesn't just tax income: it taxes everything, to death.

You can be making 2x that of someone in Spain, if you pay 41% on that additional money, suddenly it doesn't really like 2x anymore.

In the UAE (say, Dubai: a very thought after destination by many) there was no income tax and if there's one now, it's mild (I think 0% on the first $125 K then 9% on money above that).

France is not a net importer of talent. It's exporting a shitload of engineers to SV and the UAE. France is however a net importer of underqualified people, many of whom do not find any work, putting a strain on the economy and giving politicians the idea of taxing people who work in France even more.

In 2023 the state's income was much lower than expected, which prompted Bruno Lemaire, the economy and finance minister, to cheat and fudge the numbers to try to hide the gigantic hole. French senate called him for it.

Yup: the situation in France is that bad they now have to cheat on the numbers they present, like Greece did (and we know how it ended up for Greece).

> This is certainly a factor for migration within Europe.

Seen the current political situation in France, I don't know who'd be foolish enough to want to move there at the moment.

Heritage foundation has already laid all of their cards on the table when they published Project 2025, which is essentially a blueprint to undo centuries worth of hard fought progress. I doubt any kind of hacktivism or controversy can change the minds of the people they are hoping to sway in the upcoming election. Everyone opposed to project 2025 should focus their efforts on ensuring that swing voters choose their side and that liberals turn out to vote like never before.
The thing that you're ignoring is how very little voter fraud occurs in the US. The countries you refer to, likely third world backwater banana republics, tend to engage in election fraud rather than voter fraud. Trying to co-ordinate a massive conspiracy with many thousands of voters is highly visible to any sort of intelligence apparatus worth a donut, and requires buy-in from government institutions to pull off. It's simply much easier to skew counts or intercept ballot boxes than to engage in meaningful amounts of voter fraud.
This was born as a weekend project. The idea came from a personal need: I wanted to practice a new JavaScript framework(Astro) and, at the same time, create a place where I could organise all the artificial intelligence tools I was finding.

I know there are currently alternatives to what I'm creating, but I really want to turn this project into something that brings value to people, focused on quick and easy access, quality curation and constant updating. Soon I plan to make it available in other languages. I would really like to hear feedback on how I could turn this into something better.

Thank you very much
It depends who is calling the shots on what to build. If it's the business or a product manager, then some engineer is going to be rewarded or punished for the impact (or lack thereof) that is already locked in, and all that's left is politicking about who it's going to be.
