Apple and Microsoft and Amazon next. These companies can simply copy the features of smaller players, take losses for years, bundle products, use existing enterprise contracts, etc to keep growing without fair competition. Break them up, fine them, tax them.
> It's interesting that the existence of this supposed niche is entirely contained within the larger group of people who are kept unaware of the choice being made.

I doubt a significant portion of this niche is “being kept unaware” that Patreon has a website. They probably would simply never, ever find themselves on Patreon’s website. This is basically the polar opposite of myself, who has used Patreon for many years but have never remotely considered using their smartphone app. Different people are different.

> I guess readers can decide for themselves whether a store banning telling consumers about an alternative payment method is the same thing as memory protection.

The question isn’t whether they’re “the same.” A better question to ask is how satisfied are Apple’s users compared to users of other competing products, and what can that be attributed to?

When the term “undefined behavior” appears within the C standard, yes, that’s what it means. There is no way for another document to alter the meaning of “undefined behavior” as it appears within the C standard.

When the term “undefined behavior” appears in different context, we use our writing and reading comprehension skills to agree on what it means. If we’re programming in standard C, it refers to one class of behavior. If we’re programming in POSIX C, it refers to a smaller class of behavior (even according to the C standards committee: see the usage of “otherwise undefined behavior” in N2464). If we’re programming in Rust, it refers to a completely different class of behavior.

From my very first message, I did my part by providing the context explicitly: “undefined behavior in the Rust and LLVM memory model”. You complained that it’s nonsense to talk about “undefined behavior” in any context other than the C standard, but I provided references showing that it’s not. Yet you persist in intentionally misinterpreting what I wrote in order to accuse me of gaslighting. Does that make you feel superior?
I've looked in the Rust issue tracker for SRWLocks but could only find older posts. Can you share some links?

If you're not interested in the advertisement, then you're creating a less efficient market by signaling that you are. So you ought to skip past it or block it in that case. And if you're not interested in any advertisements, the market is more efficient when you block them all. Or just run adnausium if you're basically just trying to help creators scam advertisers.

Remember in all advertising funded models that you are always the product. The market is for "high quality" (i.e. profitable) viewers, not high quality videos.
So, you think we should have the president make the laws, and the president should also control the courts so that they’re unable to stop him from making the laws?

Congress is not deadlocked. What you mean is, you support a policy which is not popular enough to pass Congress, and you feel strongly enough about the need for this policy that you think it should bypass the American democratic system and be enacted through extra-legal means if necessary.

I personally extend this to international organizations in general. International law is difficult to enforce and therefore fertile ground for corruption due to a lack of consequences even when caught.
This is fine the first few times, but after a few dozens it gets exhausting. This is also not about stifling their curiosity or imagination. It's about understanding that in a field as advanced as physics and cosmology, how incredibly unlikely it is for some layman to come up with a worthwhile idea that hasn't already be tackled. To even be able to explain why an idea is impractical or beside the point, a solid knowledge and understanding of the field is often aready necessary. Articles like from Quanta Magazine dress the topics up in language that make them seem substantially simpler, and closer to human intuition, than they actually are.
> No, power was explicitly shifted to SCOTUS because the goal is that judges can take any form of interpretation of the law that they want that's favorable to their political outcome.

> by an exceedingly corrupt and unaccountable court

I don't even know where to begin with this. Your personal politics are preventing you from seeing reality. This is some really low-level election-year propaganda you have decided to believe.

> But the quibbling now is that companies can take cases to the 5th circuit for example and argue that XYZ novel chemical isn't a pollutant because it's not explicitly enumerated in the law even if it's causing vast amounts of environmental damage

This is how the process is supposed to work. An agency is not allowed to just deem things unsafe and outlaw them. The process to determine if such a chemical is harmful or if a policy is acceptable is by way of the courts. What changed here is the agencies can no longer, unilaterally and without recourse or accountability, decide what is or is not illegal. They never had that power, yet they were allowed to pretend they did for way too long.

To circumvent that process, Congress (or your state legislature in the abortion example you brought up) can and should pass laws that direct the executive branch on how to enforce the laws and what exactly they want enforced. No, laws do not need to be extremely specific as you stated, but the boundaries of enforcement should be absolute. Nobody should have to guess if an agency is going to wake up today and decide something is illegal without an actual process.

In short, any argument in favor of the previous status-quo, supporting the Chevron Deference, is an argument in favor of unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats deciding the laws of the land with no oversight and no recourse. They may change the "laws" daily, weekly, never, nobody knows! That is an insane way to run a country...
Splitting ads off from Search doesn’t mean Search doesn’t show ads.

It just means that now multiple ad networks get to bid for those ad slots. Whoever wants to share the most money with the Search division wins. All their major properties get crazy traffic and will do just fine on their own.

Chrome can make search deals and again they are siphoning off all kinds of data. They can start selling that to data brokers instead of using it internally. Not to mention regional default search engine deals.

Android is on 80% of devices worldwide. You are telling me they can’t monetize that? YouTube isn’t a loss leader anymore.

I'm wondering how their LLM parsing 250 mil words in 9 hours compares with performance of traditional sentiment analysis.

Also, many exisiting sentiment analysis tools have a lot of research behind them that can be referenced when interpreting the results (known confounds etc). I don't think there is yet an equivalent for the LLM approach
> I would suggest that one key difference between antivirus/memory protection and Apple's app store policies is that antivirus doesn't need to desperately try to hide the fact from me that it exists.

There is in fact an enormous industry of software and operating system features designed to make it as difficult as possible for the user to circumvent.
> Exceptions or return values? Nope, monadic error handling, any day of the week.

Ehhhh...

The thing is, there are a lot of cases where I can look at the code and I know the error won't happen because I'm not calling it that way. Sure, sometimes I get it wrong, but the fact is that not every application needs a level of reliability that's worth the effort of having to reason around error handling semi-explicitly to persuade the compiler that the error is handled, when it really doesn't need to be.

> Terse dynamic code, or bloated static code? Nope, terse code with full type inference.

I think you're significantly overselling this. Type inference is great, but you can't pretend that you don't have to implicitly work around types sometimes, resulting in some structures that would be terser in a dynamic language. Type inference is extremely valuable and I really don't want to use static types without it, but there are some tradeoffs between dynamic types and static types with type inference that you're not acknowledging. I think for a lot of problems Haskell wins here, but a lot of problems it doesn't.

One area I'm exploring with the interpreter I'm writing is strong, dynamic typing. The hypothesis is that the strictness of the types matters more than when they are checked (compile time or runtime). Python and Ruby I think both had this idea, but didn't take it far enough in my opinion, making compromises where they didn't need to.

> Terse nulls or nulls & boilerplate Optionals? Nope, just terse Optionals.

100% with you on this.

> First-order generics or no? Higher-kinded parametric polymorphism.

Ehhh, I feel like this is getting overly excited about something that simply isn't all that useful. I'm sure that there's some problem out there where higher-kinded types matter, or maybe I just lack vision, but I'm just not coming across any problems in my career where this feels like the solution.

I feel like there's a caveat I want to add to this but I'm not able to put my finger on it at the moment, so bear with me if I revise this statement a bit later. :)

> Multiprogramming via locking & shared memory or message passing? Hey how about I choose between shared-memory transactions or transactional message-passing instead?

Ehh, the languages I like are all using transactional message-passing anyway, and I'm pretty sure Haskell didn't invent this.

> There is little stuff happening outside of Haskell to be envious of. Java took a swing at the null problem with Optionals a decade ago. My IDE warns me not to use them. It's taking another swing with "Null-Restricted Value Class Types". I know your eyes glaze over when people rant about Haskell, but for two seconds, just picture yourself happily doing your day-to-day coding without the existence of nulls, and pretend you read a blog post about exciting new methods for detecting them.

I mean sure, I'm 100% with you on Option types, as I said. But, imagine being able to insert `print(a)` into your program to see what's in the `a` variable at a specific time. Hey, I know that's not pure, but it's still damn useful.

square vs. round is largely irrelevant from a functional perspective

You can fit less information on it, even with the same number of pixels. There is nothing you can do on a round LCD that you can't do on a square. If you find it aesthetically pleasing, great. I like round as well. But for people who like round, and use round to display a clock face, try a mechanical watch. They are awesome. ]

Hmmm, could you elaborate?

So I know that RP2xxx doesn't execute out of flash ever. I'm pretty sure the architecture of this is all execute out of SRAM.

Im pretty sure RP2040 copies out of QSPI and then executes in SRAM, but I'm not entirely sure what the downsides of this could be.

I'm guessing there might be security implications?

Honestly we need an entirely new “technology” stacks to provide alternatives to the monopoly that either the stock market has or the secret conglomerate of Silicon Valley.
The cigarettes doesn’t qualify because it was an individual activity, not an “emergent phenomenon” in the way cartels form. You can intimidate each individual into not doing something publicly (but privately they will continue), especially if it’s not something natural (unless you argue smoking tobacco is part of human nature) but thet is not the GROUP phenomenon is what we were discussing.

Now, the idea of creating unsafe cars is maybe closer, since one could argue “cutting corners” is an emergent GROUP phenomenon. So maybe you’re saying government can ban “cutting corners” as a phenomenon across the industry. And not, say, what the pinto did.

I would say that, over time, an industry such as aviation etc. painstakingly builds up improvements, such that there is enough technology that not cutting corners is just as cheap or cheaper than cutting them. For example, square windows led to a plane blowing up so they made them rounded. Eventually things just made it into standards so it’s a lot harder to actually get unsafe windows etc.

You mentioned seatbelts “being available”. That’s the point, it’s just one technology. Anti-lock brakes is another. Industries do this gradually without government “banning unsafe windows.”

For example, the government “banned monopolies” and broke up Ma Bell. Into a bunch of large pieces. But for decades they couldn’t get the cost of long distance calls to get low. If they instituted “price controls” that would be the attempt you’re talking about of eradicating the “emergent cartels” among the phone companies.

But as technology improved, and Voice Over IP used packet switching, costs quickly dropped to zero. What the catalyst really was, was that peer-to-peer file sharing networks initially designed to GET AROUND THE LAW (copyright law) in the form of Kazaa etc. made the government start fighting THAT emergent phenomenon, and the Kazaa developers turned to other uses and founded Skype.

It is that tech that now led to dropping of costs overnight to zero and the explosion of audio and video innovation, webrtc etc.

And now the governments can try to “ban end to end encryption” including in webrtc. And according to you they will be successful.

Maybe they can just mandate that everything cost nearly $0, but mandates and bans are not what made it happen. It was a slow process of technology improving, usually DESPITE government.
Certainly is a problem for me and I've seen others say the same. Every doctor I've been to has mentioned it as an issue.

It's always interesting to me to see what you can get away with washing/getting wet without ruining it. I bought a bunch of vinyl 45's off of eBay several years ago and they were pretty gross. I stumbled across a forum where someone recommended washing them with water and a little bit of dish soap. As you can probably imagine, a lot of people freaked out in the responses and said it was a terrible idea. I gave it a whirl because the records were cheap and they sounded perfect after they dried. There was no warping or damage, although a few of the labels got a little messed up (but the needle doesn't go there anyways, so I didn't mind). I guess you're supposed to use distilled water, but Chicago water worked just fine.
In practice, projects that take this approach do the majority of development in house, and external contributions are small. It makes sense that a company that may have spent several years developing a product can sell commercial licensing. The only alternative way to monetize AGPL works is to provide services and support.

Nobody is forcing anyone to give away their rights. You can always distribute contributions under AGPL in a forked repo.

The alternative is that if you're making meaningful contributions then it's in the company's best interest to hire you full time to do it.

Contributing upstream can benefit the ecosystem around the project, and the money that comes from commercial licensing also benefits it. In some cases the project would die if it didn't have the commercial side. They're not running a charity and if they aren't generating enough revenue they'd likely be working on something else rather than maintaining a FOSS project that doesn't make any money.
How is that different from Bellcore [1][2]?

Bell was broken up in the early 1980s, they already had plenty of shared software infrastructure by then. The monorepo is an interesting complication but hardly a dealbreaker that can't be restructured around.

Why is everything only plotted between 4 and 8 if the scale of the least liked topic should be 0 and most liked should be 9. Also 4.5 is the midpoint, but 4 is displayed as bright red and 6 is a muted gray blue, why? This makes no sense except to be psychologically disingenuous.

Your congressional representative can introduce articles of impeachment against any federal judge. You elected that representative to, you know, represent you.

We also need to remain mindful that just because some law or policy isn't preferred by yourself, does not mean there is consensus or that it is the right thing to do. People very often associate the lack of a specific pet law/policy to mean Congress is ineffective when the reality is that law/policy is not actually popular outside of our information bubble.

That would be spear hunting. Endurance hunting is where you jog steadily after a faster animal, never allowing it to catch its breath and cool off, until it collapses from exhaustion.

Humans have the best long-distance endurance of any land animal in the world, at least in hot dry environments; it's why we have so little hair and so many sweat glands, among other things. There are still African savanna tribes that successfully practice endurance hunting.
Civil litigation basically means that the taxpayers are on the hook for any damages. I am betting if there were to be personal responsibility, these types are acts would be history.
I know of one hunter-gatherer tribe that does this.

1. They start by learning how to track animals so well that they can identify an individual from among a herd's tracks. (in other words, crazy, crazy good)

2. Long before the hunt, they bury water in ostrich eggs under strategic trees

3. They then throw a rock at some antelope which then flee in panic.

4. Track the juciest individual (this is key - you have to chase the same animal for days on end)

5. Repeat rock throwing, individual tracking, and strategic water drinking until the animal's muscles stop working. Then you get it with an arrow.

> Tokens Don't Lie

> But how do people feel about these topics

I find it notable that tokens don't necessarily express people's feelings. Put another way, tokens aren't how people feel, they're how they write.

Samstave mentioned in this thread that Twitter is a 'global sentiment engine'. I'm sure that's literally true. Sentiment measurement is only accurate to the degree that people are expressing their real feelings via tokens. I can imagine various psychological and political reasons for a discrepancy.

If you did sentiment analysis of publicly known writings of North Korean administrators, would that represent their feelings?

I think the interplay with free speech is interesting here: In a setting where people feel socially and legally safe to express their true opinion, sentiment analysis will be more accurate.
