That sounds a lot like party-line arguments honestly, maybe rooted in 1960s issues

1: If I've paid on a non budget airlines _site_ (like Lufthansa,Air France,SAS,etc) and then see another livery on the plane I'm boarding that I'm not expecting I'd be slightly disappointed and lose trust in the selling airline regardless of any codeshare. If I see when ordering on the SAS site that the second leg on a route is handled by Lufthansa I'm not gonna worry.

2: Baggage allowance is clearly stated when ordering tickets online from a serious airline (because they love to show low prices for no checked in baggage and scrounge you for any extras).

3: I was actually wondering about that on a recent flight so I kept an eye on details and the baggage tag receipt I got clearly stated the route I was flying so I knew the baggage would end up where needed.

4: Bonus program points are usually stated when ordering.

5: The US should just follow the EU lead and harmonize rules a bit (maybe there's already some basic rules in place?), EC 261 has codified some basic rules to alleviate traveler worries in terms of responsibilities when it comes to delays and cancellations. (1)

It's 2024 and we really don't need to pile on bad cludges upon 1960s solutions to keep things working.

And yes, yesterday or today might've been the time to start a process to extent the flight code system within a 20 year horizon, but to extend it in a hurry because of airlines duplicating crap with codeshares is just silly.

So your original argument is "if an artist is [commercially successful] then they'll be commercially successful"?
Thanks for the response.

None.

Also, try Helix if you like Vim.
There's three speed categories as far as the EU is concerned:

- highway

- not highway, not city

- city

The 90-110km/h limits of regular roads tends to hit the sweet spot of engines more reliably than the 130+ of highways, a lot of smaller European car engines are uncomfortably close to redlining at 130+, especially older ones.
There's a train line close to me which runs on tracks parallel to a freight line.

The company maintaining the latter was asked several times if their infrastructure could be used, but they refused each time, so the passenger line, which was always there, just in a state of disrepair, had to be refurbished at great expense.

I'm happy with the result though because like in every track having just one line, the trains are amazingly punctual.

Disclosure is technically required, but in practice I see undisclosed ads on social media all the time. If the individual instance is small enough and dissipates into the ether fast enough, there is virtually no risk of enforcement.

Similarly, the black box AI models guarantee the owners can just shrug and say it's not their fault if the model suggests Wonderbread(r) for making toast 3.2% more frequently than other breads.
Apparently WordStar has not been released for free by the owners (as Word 5.5 for DOS was), it's just been unilaterally packaged by a fan hoping not to get in trouble.
Just like Google lost users when they started embedding advertisements in the SERPs?
I see a lot of misinformation in your post.

1. I'm loosely following the development for DSC (v3 or v2-tooling) and never have I heard Steve Lee, Michael Greene or Michael Lombardi advocate DSC as an alternative to GPOs.

2. How do you get to the conclusion that DSC is a non-standard system. What's your point of reference with that statement? I am not aware of any standard out there, but I'd love to be educated. I have the same question about the baroque-statement. Yes, DSC is old, but so are Chef and Puppet.

3. Why do you say DSC is half-baked? It was never intended to be an Alternative to Chef and Puppet, if that is what you're comparing it to. It's intended as a foundation for tools like Chef and Puppet.

3a. You want declarative state as a concept and that is exactly what DSC delivers.

4. The industry has not moved on to container images. These are two separate "movements" and there still is very much a need for bare-metal services. And this is still very prevalent with Microsoft services like AD, Exchange, SharePoint, SQL, or other Software like Veeam, ... I don't understand once more what your point of reference is with this statement.

The only part where I agree is that DSC is underfunded. That is factually true with v2, where in fact it wasn't funded at all for a decade. I believe DSC v3 is backed by Microsoft with a small budget, but it still isn't clear to me what the end goal is.

I think it is a good decision to remove the need to compile into MOF, which simplifies a lot of the process. At the same time I wonder why they would remove the LCM, which complicates the entire process of having state re+applied to a machine when it deviates locally.

And then of course, DSC v3 still doesn't do much if there's no tooling around it. Azure has configuration management based on DSC, but it is a pain to learn and to configure in my experience. I really, really wish Microsoft would have a holistic approach, but my impression is that they don't and just fiddle around individual components, without a clear picture of the desired end result.
WTH Is Cerebrolysin, Actually?
Cerebrolysin = pig brain snake oil

"Cerebrolysin is an unregulated medical product made from enzymatically digested pig brain tissue. Hundreds of scientific papers claim that it boosts BDNF, stimulates neurogenesis, and can help treat numerous neural diseases...

A recent video of Bryan Johnson injecting Cerebrolysin has over a million views on X and 570,000 views on YouTube. The drug, which is advertised as a “peptide combination”, can be purchased easily online and appears to be growing in popularity among biohackers, rationalists, and transhumanists. The subreddit r/Cerebrolysin has 3,100 members."

HPLC and other evidence shows that rather than containing neurotrophic peptides, "Cerebrolysin is likely composed of amino acids, phosphates, and salt, along with some random protein fragments."

It's just ridiculous how the FDA works.

The page with the download¹ has a long essay about the benefits of WordStar. An example:

> WordPerfect requires that I decide whether I want to cut or copy a block, then immediately mark the beginning of the block, then immediately mark the end of the block, then immediately position the cursor at where I want the block to go, then immediately move the block, and then find my way back to the place where I was originally working. From the moment I decide I might, perhaps, want to do something with a block of text to the moment I actually finish that operation, WordPerfect is in control, dictating what I must do.

> WordStar, with its long-hand-page metaphor, says, hey, do whatever you want whenever you want to. This is a good spot to mark the beginning of a block? Fine. What would you like to do next? Deal with the block? Continue writing? Use the thesaurus?

> After another half hour of writing, I can say, ah hah!, this is where I want to end that block. And two hours later I can say, and this is where that block should go.

Everyone keeps scanning over the inlining issues, which I think are much larger

“Zero overhead” refers to the actual functions code gen; there are still tables and stuff that have to be updated

Our implementation of noexcept for the single function case I think is fine now. There is a single extra bit in the exception function info which is checked by the unwinder. Other than requiring exception info in cases where we otherwise wouldn’t

The inlining case has always been both more complicated and more of a problem. If your language feature inhibits inlining in any situation you have a real problem
Don't want a pre-render, want it to be rendered on the fly on device with no internet connection. Think Android phone or Windows tablet on 2G network at best so bandwidth is not really there.

We basically need a "tilesource" for XYZ PNG based tiles that is fed on the fly from vector tiles and is cross platform enough that it relies only on something like Skia.
Familiarity? Ability to control a daisy wheel or dot matrix printer? A workable keyboard-only interface for selecting and moving text?

It's kinda funny that C++ even in recent editions generally reaches for the UB gun to enable optimizations, but somehow noexcept ended up to mean "well actually, try/catch std::terminate". I bet most C++-damaged people would expect throwing in a noexcept function to simply be UB and potentially blow their heap off or something instead of being neatly defined behavior with invisible overhead.
I want the best model at the lowest rate (and preferably lowest energy expenditure) and with the easiest access. Anything else is just background noise.

The post was most likely fed to the AI at inference time, not training time.

THe way AI search works (as opposed to e.g. Chat GPT) is that there's an actual web search performed, and then one or more results is "cleaned up" and given to an LLM, along with the original search term. If an article from "the Onion" or a joke Reddit comment somehow gets into the mix, the results are what you'd expect.

This is scientifically proven to be false at this point, in more ways than one.

> Unfortunately, the tech status quo is nowhere near that capability, hence all the AI companies slurping up as much data as they can, in the hope that "outlier opinions" are simply smothered statistically.

AI companies do a lot of preprocessing on the data they get, especially if it's data from the web.

The better models they have access to, the better the preprocessing.
Basically just less set up time. But if you’re able to ask that question then this answer wouldn’t apply to you.
B is the number of data vectors going on. You can erase the line labeled by B without much loss. (You just get the diagram for the feed-forward of a single vector.)

Still think that the way Spotify distributes money (pooling subscription money then dividing it according to stream numbers instead of dividing your subscription solely amongst the artists you listen; I don't want to pay for garbage I would never want to hear) is completely unfair.

I don't think a co-founder would just jump ship just because. That would be very un-co-founderish.

I would also assume that he earns enough money to be rich. You are not a co-founder of OpenAI if you are not playing with the big boys.

So he definitly wants to be in this AI future but not with OpenAI. So i would argue it has to do with something which is important to him so important that the others disagree with him.

As someone who uses Twitter to only follow Japanese people in Japan speaking Japanese, nothing was ever forced into my feed under the old management, it was all related Japanese hobby stuff, I saw zero English and zero politics.

Now it's super obvious that every n-th algorithmic entry has to be some blue check content to push their paid engagement numbers, and it's always some US brain rot, the algorithmic feed is completely useless for discovery now.
> - replace strings with enums where possible. E.g. "USD" should be from an enum

When they talk about things "costing more", I think that framing is confusing. Things don't cost more the dollars instead cost less.

>The general inflation is of course due to reckless COVID spending and rising energy prices as well as reckless and ineffective sanctions.

Reckless spending played a part, but a major (if not the biggest) component was every company getting it into their heads to "test the price advantage" of their products. This amounted to jacking up prices knowing people would suck it up and buy, lying that it was "supply chain" forcing their hand, and simultaneously posting record profits every quarter for three years after the vaccine dropped.

For someone who cares deeply about the future of the company, lining up several significant departures temporary or otherwise on the same dates--including your own--seems the opposite of damage control.

I could imagine a parody of the discussion between Altman and the board go something like this:

I think WG21 has been violently against adding additional UB to the language, because of some hacker news articles a decade ago about people being alarmed at null pointer checks being elided or things happening that didn’t match their expectation in signed int overflow or whatever. Generally it seems a view of spread that compiler implementers view undefined behavior as a license to party, that we’re generally having too much fun, and are not to be trusted.

In reality undefined behavior is useful in the sense that (like this case) it allows us to not have to write code to consider and handle certain situations - code which may make all situations slower, or allows certain optimizations to exist which work 99% of the time.

Regarding “not pan out”: I think the overhead of noexcept for the single function call case is fine, and inlining is and has always been the issue.

But I recently created a disposable account because it happens that my regional train lines have hired good community managers and so I know I can reach them. Otherwise I just never use it.

> component was every company getting it into their heads to "test the price advantage" of their products

This happens all the time. Companies are constantly maximizing greed. What allowed the price increases is the available cash (due to reckless spending). If customers hadn’t been able to pay, then companies wouldn’t have increased prices.

I hear this comment a lot and it’s like saying “bob didn’t die from smoking, he died from the giant tumor.”

That's not free speech, that's just might makes right principle which don't need a fancy name.

Free speech, at least on the Internet, means say what don't get the majority nod and enjoy getting harassed to literal suicide, death, mental health consequences, or all of above. Right makes might, not the normal way around.

IOW, free speech do come with consequences, and it's super-proportional on the Internet.

> Statu quo seems to be hybrid work for many big companies.

That’s the status quo until they rescind that as well. The companies who transitioned to hybrid early have been ending it since mid-late 2023 and the efforts have only ramped up in 2024.

Hybrid is a great way to cripple remote work too: remote work requires good communication hygiene in the company, hybrid makes that falter by reinstating the old direct back-channels, now you can degrade systematic communications and hobble remote workers, then justify RTO on those grounds.

And then remote work and quality of life is back to being a perk of upper management, “as it should be”.
