Fischer made the space pen as a commercial product, all R+D entirely at their own expense. NASA just bought some of the pens from them.
This is a myth, using a pencil in space isn't clever or thrifty, it's a disaster waiting to happen. The graphite from pencils breaks off in small fragments while writing and the fragments can create shorts in electronics and to top it off they're also flammable. None of those are properties you want to bring into a spacecraft.

I feel you, but how would you function the if you like all other aspects of your work?

In one of my previous jobs the boss was asked publicly during a townhall why RTO if a few months later they praised WFH and insisted this is the way forward to the whole company. He seemed surprised, chuckled a little, then paused, and then said that he talked to his colleagues, that is C*Os, and they all confirmed office is much more fun, hence the decision to go 3:2. It was one of the most stupid public answers from a CEO I've ever heard. So if they play their games instead of being honest, it's not surprising employees follow.
Yes, while it's a great practice, it's just something that newbies of any programming like me at the time may run into. Often when being taught programming, hash functions are purely functions of input data. My point was that Python, for very valid and good reasons, does not do that.
Yes I'm aware. You'll notice my hardly coherent comment makes even less sense if you're not aware of the totality of the circumstances surrounding the pen/pencil story and the ludicrousness of Bear Grylls drinking his own urine. (Comparable to loose graphite shavings in a space station!)

This is a really cool development, but there is a certain slice of the population who have watched Bear Grylls who believe you can simply drink your own urine and it's good for you. Similar to how a certainly slice of the population truly believes the US Govt spent $1B developing a pen, while the Russians simply used a pencil.
I'm so happy to see one of the greatest 20th century American poets quoted right at the beginning! Elizabeth Bishop was amazing!

> the bulk of the conversation about AI’s greatest capabilities is premised on a vision of a theoretical future

Yeah. 99% of the positive opinions I read about AI are "in X years it will do Y, Z, and that will change everything". As if the future is easily predictable.

Where are the flying cars? Where is the moon base? Why isn't everyone moving around on Segways? You never know what will happen. Some techs do grow exponentially, but not all, and it's impossible to know for sure which one will, ahead of time.

Alas. I doubt anyone will change their opinion. "This one is different." Ah well.

This does not appear to be an interesting, state of the art, purported best practices way to access Secrets Manager; its just a shim for legacy apps. And that does make sense, as there are many languages which do not have SDKs available, but do have an HTTP client library; though I question how much of the demand for something like this comes from how insanely complex authenticating with the AWS API is.

I had the same feeling about 10 years ago before I got a new mouse with a wheel for scrolling. Prior to that the increasingly vestigial and disappearing/reappearing if hovered over scrollbars were a huge annoyance. There should be a part of UI design that is concerned with the foibles of the particular user and automatically customizing the UI to fit them. For example font size based on age (if known). So if you enlarge one browser tab it might enlarge others until the font is a similar size.
Awesome app!!!

Are there any good resources for understanding models like this? Specifically a "protein language model". I have a basic grasp on how LLMs tokenize and encode natural language, but what does a protein language actually look like? An LLM can produce results that look correct but are actually incorrect, how are proteins produced by this model validated? Are the outputs run through some other software to determine whether the proteins are valid?

I'm a believer that AI is currently over-hyped, but to me this feels applicable to a lot of things that have gone on to be revolutionary.

Sure. However workstation and server class motherboards have a much lower risk of not following Intel recommendations on voltages and clock speeds.

The error rate on the workstation boards are pretty high, on the order of a failure per week for 50% of workstations they were collecting telemetry from.

I tend to prefer open source games, which there are a fair many of good quality.

I've spent a few thousand hours playing Return of the Precursors (rotp); turn based space strategy. First I played the readily available version for about a year, then I discovered the fusion fork which has me so addicted I sometimes loose entire days playing it over and over and over again. Note: you have to tweak the rules to get the perfect game. And you have to restart the game as soon as you know you're doomed, until you find a game where the random odds give you a fighting chance. The fusion fork is infinitely more challenging (and some tweaks make more intuitive sense.)

Warzone 2100 if you want real time strategic warfare (I beat the game by only building engineering units :] )

The Ur-Quan Masters is a great multi-mode space adventure.

The only games I've paid for recently are the old Wizardry games (6,7,8) which are throw back dungeon crawl and D&D style adventure.
One other weakness that I sometimes wonder about in relation to Forth is that modern processors are just much more complicated to reason about internally. I am not sure how much efficiency I can pull out of them at reasonable cost considering they likely have.

1) Out of order execution
2) Multiple levels of caches
3) Branch predictors

Forth has several neat advantages. I think it might be a better way to reason about a complex problem. It can be bootstrapped on almost any piece of hardware. It can be made to be very memory efficient in its runtime.

Those things were true in the past and they are still true now. But I do wonder whether the performance part of it is still true. Not because Forth has changed, but simply due to the fact that modern hardware (+ compilers) can take mediocre code and make it into pretty damn performant code.

1) What's your evidence that this EU prosecution is related to Integtrity Initiative based in England?

2) What's your evidence that this is true? Which NGO are you referring to, who are also related to today's news about the EU?

3) If we lived in a universe where X did breach the DSA, in three different ways, wouldn't that universe look very similar to the story in the OP? You say the law is not being wielded in good faith - would it change your opinion to learn that twitter are on this list

https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_23_...

> 12. Providers of very large online platforms or of very large online search engines shall give access without undue delay to data, including, where technically possible, to real-time data, provided that the data is publicly accessible in their online interface by researchers, including those affiliated to not for profit bodies, organisations and associations, who comply with the conditions set out in paragraph 8, points (b), (c), (d) and (e), and who use the data solely for performing research that contributes to the detection, identification and understanding of systemic risks in the Union pursuant to Article 34(1).

It's literally the law.

And you say "not wielded in good faith" as though the EU should crack down on every single digital service which doesn't provide research access - when in fact, Twitter/X are a very large online platform.

4) You didn't really answer - do you agree that there are some EU prosecutions, which ARE NOT motivated by conspiracy reasons? In such a world, there would have to be a real, genuine, non-conspiracy prosecutor sitting in an EU office, looking for companies who are breaking the law. And if such a person exists - how do you know they aren't responsible for punishing this instance of law breaking? Why does it have to be a conspiracy? There's no evidence for it.

Not at all; I think you have a problem with your reasoning patterns.

And this is just the one case we know about. I'm sure this is happening far more frequently than has been admitted. Something the story doesn't say is what kind of drone it was or how close it got to the shipyard.

Web components are a nice idea if you squint hard enough, but architecturally they're inadequate for solving the problems modern frameworks and libraries address — that's why you see them used nearly nowhere. I think needless to say that the answer to tooling fatigue is not more new tooling. As someone who's spent way more time working on frontend applications, libraries and tooling than is good for anyone's hairline, I would say the main thing we really need is time. There is clearly a best practices converging across the tooling landscape, best ways to solve common problems etc, but we're not quite there yet. But I can see it in the distance if I squint.
That sounds more like the lack of certificate-based authentication (or some other stronger authentication method) was the problem, not the lack of a private overlay network.

So this was not, apparently, a break-in to the operational side of AT&T. Someone unauthorized got hold of data they were already selling to marketers. Is that correct?
