Your disinterest is ostentatious to the point of itself being a fashion statement.

Also, 'nerf' and 'grammable' are obvious? I know what nerf means but neither are in any way obvious. I think you've got some unexamined ideas about language that have more to do with the words you learned as you were coming up than any principled or aesthetic reason.
CPUs could in theory speculate CMOV, reintroducing prediction when predictable. But after Spectre, IIRC Intel now guarantees that CMOV is never speculated.
Why don't you do it, then, if it's so easy?

Using energy doesn't contaminate the atmosphere - generating energy by dirty processes does.

Energy usage correlates tightly with level of civilization a population has.

Perhaps you mean that it wastes energy? Anything can be seen as a waste energy if you don't understand the benefit of it.

Do you see gold mining as a waste of energy? It uses more energy than bitcoin. Go tell the gold miners they've been wasting their efforts for millennia.

I recently had an opportunity to learn something about software used in hospitals and it was a shock. Are you laughing about the JS or web developer meme as a symbol for clueless people? Well, I need to tell you that every JS or web dev is a code guru compared to the guys I have seen in medical / hospital software.

While your web dev has a very good idea about infrastructure and code maintenance these guys are usually clueless about CI, git, secrets management etc. but still they now all want to migrate their stuff to azure, because it’s cool… to say the truth I didn’t understand the reason why they want to. People that are basically relying on Microsoft wizard based development.

Shocking was that this was not only some bureaucracy software, but systems that are used for actual operations and patient management.

I guess that many people died already because windows developers but nobody did a systematic investigation so we don’t know.

To maximize for money without moving into management here are the options:

* Follow a trend, as in do what everyone else does. For example be great at both Java and JavaScript React. When I say great I only mean above average at programming but administratively great at agile and closing tickets. Beef up your resume with numbers and move into a role as a corporate principal. AI and cloud infrastructure are hot right so try spinning those into a primary focus.

* Get a PhD and become a researcher for Google or Microsoft

* Get an MBA, a PMP, and focus on the business of IT.

That’s really it. If you really want to make money go into management, and you don’t need any experience as a developer to do that.

Always be a salesperson. Sociopaths will get further than everyone else if they aren’t completely assholes.

It’s never about technical excellence. If you waste effort on technical excellence, especially in a trendy area, you will race to the bottom arguing best practices with people probably shouldn’t be there in the first place. Software is laissez faire, so most businesses just try to retain boring people and most people aggressively pushing their careers lie about their capabilities.
And the extent to which the expectation of the function of the random variable exceeds the function of the expectation of the random variable depends on the variable’s variability (or variance), as can be seen eg by a Taylor expansion around the expectation.

That’s the reason why linear (or affine) financial derivatives (such as forwards) can be priced without using volatility as an input, while products with convexity (such as options) require volatility as an input.

Thats a very honest take.
You didn’t say why.

How you learn Linux depends heavily on your goals, why you are wanting to learn, what you want to do, what outcomes you’re wanting.
The post for most parts was neat, not disagreeing there. But wrapping it up as some sort of empowering life lesson feels so utterly out of touch that I felt like reminding that it is huge privilege to be able to do this sort of thing. Someone not wearing custom luxury watch is most likely not due being afraid to make decisions for themselves. Attributing the ability to do this sort of thing to "connected world" and "people willing to help" is just distasteful to me.

It doesn't help that the whole post is titled "Designing my own watch" while the actual design work was seemingly mostly done by ochs; mixing up doing something and commissioning something done is another of those things that has echoes of ages past, and not in a good way.

For the authors defence I do say that 5 years ago was slightly different time and back then these sort of things could pass more easily.
I wish that Linux would at least try to seriously copy the UX of the MacOS. If apple can make a desktop OS that jsut works, why do i have to break my back on:
- Figure out which distro actually works on a "linux teady (tm)" hardware
- installing vpn in Linux
- cycle between different package managers looking for an up-to-date version of a software that I need
- not need to worry about differences between different distros and death by a thousand small gaps between them
- have a reliable and secure faceid that leverages dedicated hardware, not needing to compromise on security on the easier to break and flunky photo-id

etc, etc.

I hate windows with all my heart, but I can only see myself migrating to MacOS. I've tried migrating to Linux multiple times, but it always ended in multiple days of googling, copying miles of bash woodoo from the internet (lots of it, and too many issues to have time to understand what I am pasting), and other issues that make the barrier of entry just too high.
How do big binary linux applications deal with it? ldd'ing my chrome, I see it using Ubuntu's /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 and even a lot of GTK/Gnome stuff is in there, with Gnome famously providing no backward compatibility guarantees at all.

Some game devs are dropping native elf/linux support because of proton.

proton is then, really, hurting native elf/linux gaming.

Some game devs are aware of that and still try to provide clean elf/linux binaries.

Not to mention, it is a version mess, namely most of the time you get games to run-ish less than optimaly (if it runs at all) and you need some exact version of proton (wine/vkd3d) since forward and backward compatibility is super shabby, but you often end up with "if you want to run game UHEOTHC optimally, you need an external custom version GMX.ultra.74389.12 of protron which does include direct copy of closed source windows components (and you better be careful since it is illegal to redistribute many windows components...).

It would have been 1 billion times cheaper, and saner, to write audit tools for ELF64 binaries in order to drive game devs at crafting clean binaries (glibc ABI selection, dynamic loading of video game core interface libs, static linking).

I am sorry, but there is nothing to be proud of, actually quite the other way around. They are doing the "embrace and extend": does embrace elf/linux but does extend it with abomination like proton.

Shame on you, valve.
Didn't know lazydocker. Thanks! I learned something today.
If you value polish, go with your Ressence. If you value a custom watch that matches exactly your specifications, OP's choice is perfectly fine. It's obvious he will get more enjoyment that way of his money spent. Nothing wrong here.
I meant something like this browser does: https://arc.net/ where the urlbar and all the buttons of the navigation bar are in the sidebar as well, so you have more room vertically for the actual web content.

ClearLinux pulls phpbench-0.8.2 (and no other applications) for PGO[1] and then Phoronix benchmarks with phpbench-0.8.1. In my opinion, that's a valid reason to disqualify the result. It does not mean that PGO makes PHP faster or slower, it means that there are no measurements to make the conclusion. I only have theory, that PGO generally helps to reduce startup time, so that in case when app starts 1000s times per second, it helps even if PGO data is irrelevant. But modern PHP does not behave in this way, also some real-word PHP apps are usually CPU / I/O bound in database, so one may see no difference...

Some time ago I tried to apply PGO to Blender, which only hurt the performance, but that's the other story (I read it as: if application already has logical separation for kernels for CPUs, attempt to join and reseparate in PGO may hurt the performance).

Would appreciate it, haven't seen something like this yet.
This is what finally let me drop VFIO, a VM with GPU passed through for the occasional game.

It's notable this happened at all because Valve supported what was there all along. They didn't go make their own path. They, and the ecosystem, all benefit.

Truly thankful
Not too many.

But debugging RF stuff is hairy AF, so it’s a great forge for making problem solvers.
My thought was that it would be interesting to look at such timeseries data for discontinuities that you could correlate against historical events to get some insight into the impact of policy decisions, and the development of neoliberal capitalism.

The plateau at 30% (assuming it is a plateau) seems reasonable. Unless goods are counted twice, a stable upper limit is clearly 50%, as firms output something eventually, and presumably the value of the goods never decrease in the value chain.
That isn't a shibboleth because it doesn't mark you as a member of their group. It sounds like a simple preference against gendered language (or maybe the default masculine, idk).

Using the word 'head' to refer to the bathroom would be a shibboleth.

Side note: I find that preference odd because I come from a context where 'you guys' is neutral, but ultimately view it as a deficiency in the english language.
> I've only met people who are members of groups, and they are rarely unanimous about the words that should be used to refer to members of the groups to which they claim membership.

The problem of "determine what group X wants" gets even worse when we go online and the people whose words we read are now not randomly sampled from the group, instead being the tony minority who care enough to campaign about it online (or those who arent even group members but campaign for them).

> The awful thing is, I'm not sure they can.

It might be one of those things that are extremely painful at first, but becomes better when things have settled down.

All that sites that have turned to clickbait and scammy ads, wouldn't we be better of without them? If the ad market where to collapse the real newspapers, who still have actual subscribers would still be around, things like the BBC and other local and tax/license funded media would still be around and assuming that the free market is actually a thing, companies would emerge to plug the holes left be the clickbait sites, at a price.

As it stands we're seeing those with the means paying for actual content and everyone else is just getting absolute garbage.

msn.com is my favorite example, why is that still around? Most of the ads are actual scams, all article link to other sites, which are equally scammy. Why? Because it makes Microsoft money and they do not care about their users getting scammed, as long as they get their cut.

I don't think ads should be the main way we fund content online, it's clearly not working anymore. The ad space has become the product and whatever content remains is just enough to trick people to going to the site and clicking a link or two. The content is no longer about enlightening or even entertaining, it's about trapping people in some twisted hedonic treadmill.
The linux model exposes it's complexity to the end user. Because of this the model is usually a lot simpler(the average user is expected to understand it). In the windows world the model is this huge unknowable beast with a facade over it. if you are fine with the facade this works great, but when things go wrong, it is much harder, a soul crushing wall of propriety internal interfaces. that is, it makes the easy things easier and the hard things harder.

Don't get me wrong microsoft is one of the good guys here, compared to apple they are a very programmer focused company and try very hard to provide the information needed to do things with the os. There are people who are very good with windows and understand it well, I just never liked all the hidden complexity and am much happier with linux and it's explicit complexity. I have to admit that statement is a bit of a lie, I actually think linux is far to complex and am happier with openbsd, which exposes and expects even more of the end user and is correspondingly much simpler.
Hiya, I was looking for something like this, and am finding it fun to play with.

I just have one question ... How do I add a book to it?
> My API is just a few well documented endpoints. If you can figure out how to send a POST request using any programming language, you should have no problem using it. But that seems to be too high a bar for the new generation of prompt-engineer coders.

Nice. The time has come that we need to design the API with the LLM in mind. Or, to rephrase that, test your API that it is working with the popular LLM tools regularly.
I know people are paid less.

Well, the costs for the 'in' and 'out' reader are really not the major issue for most companies, as you could conceivably set a particular perimeter that cordons of 'secure' from 'not secure' and would only have to configure anti-passback for that perimeter. The real trick (and therefore problem) is in making sure that people do not walk through doors together, that is, making sure that only a single person passes the perimeter for a single access request. Single-person passages are way more costly than the readers, and have the additional problem of not allowing all that many people to pass per hour. That means that you may even need multiple for a given people flow. And that's leaving aside the convenience issues.
If the term that accurately describes my group is now an insult, I need to reconsider how my group affects society.
There is no point in trying to justify the cost in counting the BOM, taking your watch for example, it uses a generic ETA caliber 2892-A2 (the "engine" in the watch) which is used in watches that cost 10% up to x10 of yours while it cost only $300-500.

I look at watches as a piece of jewelry more than an engineering item, they might or might nor keep their value but I like how they look, make me look and make me feel especially if there is a nice story behind the watch.
Ah, sorry, totally didn't get that it was using them as users of the API.

I would recommend API fuzzers here, which cycle through all available possibilities, and generate 'garbage' inputs as well as structured inputs regarding the specifications the APIs implement (http, and the underlying structures provided to the api endpoints).

an LLM would likely not perform an exhaustive test.

There are several projects freely available to run such fuzz tests. Eventhough that does eat up considerable resources, and 'resetting' state during such tests can be problematic at best, the same would apply for LLM based testing. (database gets screwed in some way, and the next request is not on a 'clean' state.)
It's nothing like plumbing. The risk of doing it wrong is not a leak. With electrical, the stuff you don't even know you don't know can kill you or start a fire. It's not always intuitive.

So many safety systems and so much of "code" is stuff that most DIYers don't understand and they just get away with it. Until they don't. Until their kitchen catches fire because they've overloaded a feed or they've had a fatal shock in their shed because it's too far from the house to have tripped in time. People who trusted "IP66" certification on the crap they're getting off Amazon and Ali. DIYers lack real knowledge, real experience.

Some of the most dangerous work you'll ever see comes from people who are handy with tools, thought they knew enough, but didn't. Of course there are "professionals" who deliver poor work too and when they do that, you can lean on their insurance, their certifying body (eg NICEIC in the UK) and get it fixed.

Stick to stuff that doesn't need the work to be inspected to code/regs, unless you're having a pro check and certify your work.
I know that it was decoded into 2 micro-ops and thus had to be decoded by the wide decoder, so perhaps 2 cycles?
can the watch turn me into different aliens?
Not to highjack this topic, but she was recommended (like to many others of you no doubt) quite a bit in my Youtube feeds over the last few months; and the first few videos I watched seemed to be solid enough. Yet as I watched a few more, I couldn't shake the feeling that she's so out of left field that she's not just a 'quirky renegade' anymore, but rather a quack who dresses up her quackery with just enough 'real' physics to make it all sound very convincing. (By that I don't mean that she says factually wrong things, but that her conclusions or extrapolations from established facts seem to me, well, outrageous). However, I don't know enough physics to be able to tell if this is a correct feeling, and the Youtube comments are, as usual, one big fanboy fest, which is true for any large enough channel - even those of flat earthers and similarly delusional content).

So my question is - just how serious should she (and others like her, who denounce 'mainstream' academia as much as those other fringe groups who go on and on about the corruption of 'mainstream' media) be taken? Anyone have an opinion on this?
I think in the era of LLMs good docs/FAQ are of an even greater value.

You can write a support bot that sends a user's question + docs/FAQ to an LLM to automatically deal with the basic questions and only involve a human in the loop once a question goes beyond what's in the docs.
I feel the need to point out that it's not difficult for people whose identity is not centered around their jobs, since I see that disconnect in the comments. I found the author's take full of the pageantry that I often associate with people who make big deals out of fairly inconsequential things, but before I begrudge the author their take, I have to remember that my career is of relatively little importance to me.

Hypothetically, when you meet someone new, do you introduce yourself as your job? Is one of the first exchanges of self-identifying information what you do for a living? A lot of people do and while I do not understand it, I guess that is what their lives are. Tbh, I find it a bit sad. Generally, my career does not enter the conversation unless there is some relevant reason. I'd rather talk about my productive hobbies where I am making or building or learning a thing.

Breaking this down, when we use our jobs as our identity, I find it exceptionally difficult to pull the "why do you do it" out of that conversation, because a career is just a paycheck, in the end and involves very little personal enrichment. Of course, not everyone views careers that way and I'm not here to try to change minds, but shed light on why it might seem silly to many of us.

Perhaps we are not one of the lucky few with those unicorn jobs that both pay the bills, offer a bright future, and promote personal growth. They exist, I am sure, but they are the exception to the rule.
As someone who isn't American but grew up in California in the 90s, I find myself often explaining American public behavior to others who are baffled by it.

As I see it, the US - the first place with a supposed egalitarian bent on the cosmopolitan society - created a system whereby people from all backgrounds and ethnicites could interact in the public sphere without tripping each other's emotional wires - that is the basis for Political Correctness. Keep your baggage at home, and out in the real world and in the market you can interact with everyone as equals (so, Mike Munger's "the answer is trasaction costs!").

The system worked pretty well for a time (fine, it's called the 90s). The problem is that the edifice kept on being built up, as more voices raised more touchy subjects that needed to be sanitized in public, enough that it began to bother people. I think that as alternative means of communication allowed people to more be "themselves" in the digital, if not real, public domain, the discrepancy between public discourse and private thought became more glaring.

Now, for every system, there are those who naturally like to uphold norms, and these are the ones you say are "virtue signalling" - I think they're just norm upholders. But for the rest of us, it takes only one euphemism that hits us the wrong way to get us questioning the whole over-built edifice.
The fact that one political side arbitrarily took it up as a cause, of course, made the other side all the more dogmatic in its application.

So it will be eventually torn down and replaced by something identical and the cycle will continue anew. ~fin~
