I have a fully staffed team it’s not 5m a year. For a company twice his size.

These are very generous consultant pitch #s not reality.
We doubled running
1-$200k/guy …
2x full stack devs (me)
2x data guys
1x MSP for IT.

That team was awesome and did serious buzz saw damage because we shipped solutions that made the company better every day.

Didn’t have to be huge. Just help someone do something better.
Long thread so I'm not sure if someone has already made this observation, but -- reading your description of the single entrenched supplier to your industry that comprises your company and a set of competitors, made me wonder about "going bigger". This is the idea: yes start a team to develop a greenfield modern solution to meet your needs, but do that with the goal to eventually spin it out as a separate company that is also a vendor to as many of your competitors as you can sign up. The benefits to this approach are that more resources can be brought to bear, meaning better developers can be hired, and the cost can be shared between the participants. This has been done in the past for example by the airlines with Orbitz, and media companies with Hulu.
Chances of it blowing up are near-zero, statistically.

Use what you like. Svelte makes some things easier.

Sveltekit is full stack, and with drizzle-orm, zod, and superforms you've got a great start.
I've seen equally many projects never achieve lift-off because they were stuck in analysis paralysis trying to architect MVP for scalability, extensibility etc.

And even if that succeeded you often end up with fear of change because the complicated architecture can't be touched.

It's really important to have the right balance here, but KISS and YAGNI are often easier to scale when you need it, than the reverse. If you don't have the mentality that the MVP must never be rewritten.
Sorry for the harsh comment.

I just found it highly unlikely that Nvidia would change its ways due to this, and I don't really see how we're being "squeezed". Nvidia are delivering amazing products (as are AMD), and it is not going to be any cheaper this way.

Building this kind of hardware is not something a hacker can do over the weekend.
If the cores share resources like ALU, routing, multiplier, etc. you can't run two cores that share same circuitry at same time.

Edit: Correction: Eben Upton said the cores share no logic. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41196880.
I don't quite see them that way either, but, I further see tab grouping, tab hiding and profile groups as three separate parts of the same overall feature. And Simple Tab Groups directly supported Containers since day 1, so I personally always really found this distinction a bit more lexical than practical.

I absolutely love the hiding feature and find Containers incomplete without them. What's the point of switching context if the context is still visible there at all times? At that point, let me just use a different User. And I'd find Simple Tab Groups weirdly incomplete as well if they insisted on hiding tabs but not providing Container functionality. Because tab groups with hiding don't feel "ephemeral" enough. Takes too long to make a group, and the interface changes too much when jumping around. That dissuades me from going on tangents online and then grouping that tangent and keeping it on the side temporarily. Chrome's approach is better for that latter thing.

I want something in between. Something that let's you see all groups on a single bar or on a tree bar, and then further groups that can be containers and switch the bar. Chrome was close with their group save+hide feature, but they eat into the bookmarks bar with no options about where.
I'll assume you mean niche in the desktop space.

So there's a catch 22 here. ARM was niche on desktop because no-one made the first move. That is, until Apple launched the M1, which is exactly the failure of imagination of Microsoft that GP is talking about. Though a quick google shows they did indeed investigate this avenue in 2016 for Windows 10, though they obviously didn't commit to it:

> On December 7, 2016, Microsoft announced that, as part of a partnership with Qualcomm, it planned to introduce support for running Win32 software on ARM architecture with a 32-bit x86 processor emulator, in 2017. Terry Myerson stated that this move would enable the production of Qualcomm Snapdragon-based Windows devices with cellular connectivity and improved power efficiency over Intel-compatible devices, and still capable of running the majority of existing Windows software (unlike the previous Windows RT, which was restricted to Windows Store apps). Microsoft is initially targeting this project towards laptops.

I guess a survey is better than nothing. But the PDF to the "study" doesn't suggest any intentions of uncovering something useful.

It is completely ok to use commercial software in a commercial environment. It isn't and shouldn't be the goal of open source to provide the best consumer product.

In the grand scheme of things I believe open source at least provides serious competition and that commercial software has its own work to do.

Also, a lot of not all professional work uses open source components. Research is a field where it shines and there it matters a lot.

Adobe has to work for its money as well as its competitors get more powerful by the day. And everyone hates their creative cloud.

Second this. Cross functional knowledge is the secret sauce of in-house designed software.

Nothing off the shelf does that.

Integration is where cross departmental solutions live and that’s an underrated nightmare
One thing that doesn't seem to have been mentioned, if you do go in-house, get a good designer as well. Ideally someone used to working solo, doing deep research, and who understands balancing great UX, technical considerations, and business needs.
I started a blog about 20 years ago to organise ideas while writing my final paper in a photography bfa program. It had to do recycling stuff to make photographs. I never stopped writing the blog, it keeps me sane, it keeps me aware of I have done and what I have yet to do. I read it a lot, to get back om track.
How Japan made the decision to surrender is well covered in the book "Japan's Longest Day", originally published in 1973. Many of the major players were interviewed. There's a reasonably accurate movie version worth watching, if you're interested in this.

It's a very strange story of decision-making under extreme pressure. No one was in charge. The Navy was barely talking to the Army. The civilian government had been sidelined from control of military matters years before. The Emperor was supposed to be a figurehead. And, as pointed out above, there was an attempted coup to stop the surrender.
The point might not necessarily be for consumers

Linus wasn’t writing Linux for consumers (arguably the Linux kernel team still isn’t), he needed a Unix-like kernel on a platform which didn’t support it

Nvidia is placed with CUDA in a similar way to how Bell was with Unix in the late 1980s. I’m not sure if a legal “CUDA Wars” is possible in the way the Unix Wars was, but something needs to give

Nvidia has a monopoly and many organisations and projects will come about to rectify it, I think this is one example

The most interesting thing to see moving forward is where the most just place is to draw the line for Nvidia they deserve remuneration for CUDA, but the question is how much? The axe of the Leviathan (US government) is slowly swinging towards them, and I expect Nvidia to pre-emptively open up CUDA just enough to keep them (and most of us) happy

After a certain point for a technology so low in the “stack” of the global economy, more powerful actors than Nvidia will have to step in and clear the IP bottleneck

Tech giants are powerful and influence people more than the government, but I think people forget how powerful the government can be when push comes to shove over such an important piece of technology

—————

PS my comparison of CUDA to Unix isn’t perfect, mostly as Nvidia has a hardware monopoly as it stands, but as they don’t fab it themselves it’s just a design/information at the end of the day. There’s nothing physically preventing other companies producing CUDA hardware, just obvious legal and business obstacles

Perhaps a better comparison would be Texas Instruments trying to monopolise integrated circuits (they never tried). But if Fairchild Semiconductors hadn’t’ve independently discovered ICs, we might have seen a much slower logistic curve than we have had with Moore’s law (assuming competition is proportional to innovation)
Can you do fuzzy search with it?
As you mention it explicitly, EDIFACT is a big standard, but the documentation is excellent and machine parsable to generate schema/code.

Gwion Gwion Dreamtime stories.
> Freelancers' careers live or die based on where future work is coming from. Happy clients are good for repeat business. Happy clients refer other potential clients. Happy clients are good for portfolios or case studies. Smart freelancers are all about keeping their clients happy in the long term. It's just good business.

Not a freelancer, but this is a classic "market for lemons" situation: designing things for the long term takes a significant amount of extra thought and expertise. If two freelancers give two different quotes, one of which has a higher hourly rate and will take a longer time, there are one of two possibilities:

1. The more expensive quote is way overpriced, trying to extract money out of the buyer and possibly double-dip

2. The cheaper one is a low-quality "cowboy" job that's going to cost way more to maintain in the long run

If buyers in general can't tell the difference, then the market will end up pressuring even the high quality people to cut corners and produce "cowboy" jobs.
In other words, it may not be 100% the freelancer's fault they're "not interested in the long term unless forced".

So part of the job of a "wrangler" is to understand what's worth investing in and what's not -- to know that it's worth spending double in this particular area because it's a long-term win -- and to be able to evaluate the output of the work, to make sure that what was delivered actually is higher value.
We need to go back to the 1960s/1970s, where Tektronix oscilloscopes and other such equipment came with user manuals that had detailed explanations of how the electronics worked.

As an example, check out the user manual (not the repair manual, though that's available on this site too) for the popular Tektronix 465, and scroll down to the "Circuit Description" section:

Good students select and focus on the most relevant information in a class, and rehearse it for themselves or practice skills outside it. There is some limited evidence that making note taking easier or notes easier to read leads to worse memory for key material.

It's easy to take for granted just how much Fucking God Damn Technology we have mundane access to today.

That 14700K or 7800X3D CPU? That's more powerful than entire national supercomputers back in the day.

A 64 gigabyte stick of DDR5 RAM? Bill Gates once said 640 kilobytes is enough for everyone. And you probably needed multiple sticks.

A 20TB hard drive? With helium? Do you understand the bandwidth of a station wagon full of hard drives barreling down the freeway in the 1980s?! Wait, nobody probably even knows what a station wagon is anymore...

1gbit/s internet? 10gbit/s ethernet? We sung the melody of dial up modems conducting international diplomacy better than any politicians.

360Hz liquid crystal display monitor with billions of colors and millions of pixels? We used to completely evacuate air out of glass or ceramic tubes and fire fucking lasers with them to show monotone pictures in neon orange or green.

Modern, minimalist user interfaces? To hell with them, Windows 95 was the pinnacle of human engineered interface design.

...Wait, did we actually devolve? Maybe it was a mistake to make sand think after all.
Pretty sure the Subaru Crosstrek mentioned in the article doesn't have one, but a WRX STI (also marketed as "AWD") has a lockable center diff.

I agree with the other comment: if the Parks Service wants locking diffs (or ride height or whatever else) they should say so, not rely on inconsistent marketing terms.
Its not just the obscene use of bio mass (wood pellets) to run power stations.

The company is burning more wood than any other power station in the world.

As well as receivig vast subsidies from the Government in addition to the £2.36 million a day it already receives for burning biomass.

Cutting down prime forest timber to make the wood pellets and make a profit.

Then there is the cost of shipping all that fine wood to Airstrip One from the other side of the atlantic.

Drax has won the support of the government thanks to claims that its generation is “carbon neutral” because the trees that are felled to produce its wood pellets absorb as much carbon dioxide while they grow as they emit when they are burned in its power plant.

I have read some bollocks in my time but that comes a clear first.

The FTSE 100 owner of the Drax power plant made profits of £500m over the first half of this year, helped by biomass subsidies of almost £400m over this period.

It handed its shareholders a windfall of £300m for the first half of the year.

I think he’s toeing the line of “listen build it yourself but you’re missing a decade of expertise I can add to your stack tomorrow”

That said, my feeling is the guy doesn’t have a prebuilt fit for his company / he’s already shopped extensively.
Fair enough..
Even if it does I'm suspicious. The open source RISC-V verification systems are not very good at the moment:

* riscv-arch-tests: ok, but a very low bar. They don't even test combinations of instructions so no hazards etc.
* riscv-test: decent but they're hand-written directed tests so they aren't going to get great coverage
* TestRig: this is better - random instructions directly compared against the Sail model, but it's still fairly basic - the instructions are completely random so you're unlikely to cover lots of things. Also it requires some setup so they may not have ran it.

The commercial options are much better but I doubt they paid for them.
It's just loading a dynamic library from an arbitrary file, as traditionally done for third party software addons (e.g. Photoshop plugins since the early 1990s and VST instruments and effects since the late 1990s).
This summarizes my career nicely.

Great approach advice IMO.
Do you really employ 200 people, all of whom don't know how to code? What kind of sweatshop are you running?
It’s not that simple. “Naive” torque vectoring will shatter CV axles if the drivetrain isn’t designed for it. Consider the scenario when three wheels are completely stuck in mud/sand and one is spinning. If the load is transferred from the free wheel and the others don’t gain traction, something will give.
> Notably, if a tire on an AWD car is in the air, only that tire will spin

On the contrary, here's a demonstration of the opposite. Subaru AWD, three wheels without grip, power goes to the wheel with grip.

It really depends on what your application is.

Where I'm at, most of Kafka usage adds nothing of note and could be replaced with a rest service. It sounds good that Kafka makes everything execute in order, but honestly just making requests block does the same thing.

At least then I could autoscale, which Kafka prevents.
Well, then I totally misunderstood the problem. I'm not a researcher, so I don't think I can contribute much to your topic.

However, Ransomware these days can:

Lure on you system for a pretty long time until they take action (14 days or longer)
Encrypt USB Disks, as they are attached
Encrypt network drives
Infect other systems connected to your network
Delete existing backups on many online targets (also cloud)

So even if you do a "cloud" backup and have the credentials on your system to do "convenient" backups, it may just delete them.

A way to overcome this is to have an "append only" backup, so that the older backups are secure. I'm not sure you covered this, but as I already stated: I'm not a researcher.
I often get asked by people how I learned to do X, where X is a skill that takes time and dedication, be it designing electronic circuits, playing musical instruments, programming etc.

The answer is that you need to enjoy learning, because when you learn a thing most of the time you suck at it and most of the time there is something that you can't do or don't know. The person who is writing books because they like to learn about the universe, humanity and themselves will likely become better at writing books than the person who ticks off "Written a book" on their bucket list.

The way I look at it, if you want to become really good it needs to be a quest with a many small goals sprinkled on top. The quest needs to be something you could do literally forever (e.g. play music, write code) and the goals could be single projects, etc.

But for me the goals are just a means to do the quest, not the other way around.
>>> extremely limited in third-party SDKs like Zephyr

So is almost any non-trivial peripheral feature. Autonomous peripheral operation, op-amps, comparators, capture/compare timers…

Zephyr tries to provide a common interface like desktop OSes do and this doesn't really work. On desktop having just the least common denominator is often enough. On embedded you choose your platform because you want the uncommon features.

In this case, people are the problem for being suggestible and buying Apple obsessively. I've worked for 3 different tech companies which bought and forced me to use an expensive company-supplied MacBook, in spite of the fact that their software project ran in production on Linux which is free. The problem is that people are brainwashed.
Does anybody know how to make it work with UUID as primary keys? I got stuck on that a while back and it randomly corrupts when using rowid. Couldn't figure out a solution other than migrate my schema to use a sequential integer instead.

It is kind of funny that both of the incorrect versions, peaked or peeked, sort of make more sense just based on the definitions of the individual words. “Peaked my interest” in particular could be interpreted as “reached the top of my interest.”

Way better than stabbing my interest, in a French fashion or otherwise.
>Most problems with Windows laptops aren't Intel's fault, IMO.

Intel works very thoroughly with Microsoft, and it is absolutely on Intel for bringing forth the most inexcusable failure mode: Laptops "sleeping" with the CPU still on and proceeding to cook themselves in your backpack because they thought they were still on mains power.

Why is this on Intel? Because they removed a C-state that actually slept properly in favor of a C-state that theoretically saved more power but in practice almost never works with how people actually use laptops.

AMD might also share the blame here. I don't know, because I don't care to know further with how stupid everything is.
I agree. The whole poin of my taking notes by myself in college was to help me memorize the fundamentals and help me reason out the more complex stuff through dedicated focus time. Notes I got from other people (when I missed class or for comparison) just didn’t stick to my mental map of the course, and I suspect AI is useless for that as well.

It would be better to take my existing notes and automatically create quizzes or flash cards.
Just don't fall into the trap that this means you shouldn't have goals. I would phrase it as: The way is more important than the destinations, but destinations are also worth having if you want to continue on the way.
Its a fine word "Pledge".

It seems to be part of the core manipulative vocabulary of modern day officials.

All potential governments here on Airstrip One spout out many "pledges" during their quest for power which once in power never come to pass.
