I can imagine situations where I hold something, thinking "this needs to go there". Cleanup, but also moving days, gardening, construction. I like the concept of the "luggage from sapient pearwood" - maybe tell it where to go, drop off something and come back? Put a box on it, and it will carry it down the stairs?

This is not it. Needs to be quiet and energy efficient, but still handle stairs and garden... If I need to follow it, I could just use an exoskeleton - no, please make this autonomous.

If you've solved voice interface, navigation, low power.. Then you almost have a humanoid robot who could also put the laundry in the washing machine, not just next to it.

I’m not sure how the accounting works, but I witness the head of facilities get short with a guy who was coming to the office, but was listed as a remote worker. She said he was costing them a desk in the office, while also the expense of being remote.

This all sounded like nonsense to me. The office had dozens, if not hundreds of empty desks. He wasn’t taking anyone’s spot, the desk would otherwise sit empty. When someone first goes remote they are sent a bunch of stuff they don’t really need, but it’s a one time cost, not recurring. The laptop, the VPN, these are all things the employee has regardless of their remote status.

I don’t know if she was making stuff up just to cause trouble, or if companies like to count per-seat expense in the office and at home.

Yes you can, the question is whether you should, and if yes, to what extent.

Developing SPAs as compared to traditional web pages with Django is at least 10x more work.

In my experience, on most websites, on 80% of pages SPA gives very little additional value. Many non-essential pages are required to run on production, but especially if you are working alone, you should use the minimal effort to make them.

Such pages are for example: registration, password reset/ change, support pages, static pages (contact, background info etc.), payment flow, requesting permissions, suggesting new resources for approval, all administrative pages etc. Most of these are not needed for an initial proof of concept, but they are required before going into production.

For example, I created a website, a dance event calendar, which has approximately 200 views. (And 2M page views per month). Around 80 views use the Django admin -- so they work out of the box. Around 20 are for end users (no login is required).

The remaining 100 are for entering data (i.e. CRUD) and the pages mentioned above, by approximately 300 data admin users, and only few of these pages are used very often.

From these, only few pages really benefit from being a SPA. Of course this site is an extreme example, because for the page load time is the most critical factor for the usability -- and I can cache most of the data.

One of of the pages which benefit from interactivity is where data admins mass-enter data (i.e. enter multiple events on single form). This was implemented using HTMX, which works really nicely with Django.
I'd rather read a book / listen to a podcast from someone like Rob Walling, then navigate the Twitter feed of endless "welp, someone copied my SaaS" in order to get an occasional gem.

Temporary workaround: write nothing else but assembler source
Are they seriously praising apple for repairability ?

The same company that locks people people and third party company out of repairing their phone with parts that are serial coded. I don't know any other company that does that.

And they can't even pretend it's for security like with faceid, it would be possible to wipe the phone when a part is not recognized. I'm sure people would be fine with it.

I believe they are only making these changes to appease the law makers, and in the case of the battery because Europe said they will need to be replaceable.

This is just corporate doing corporate stuff, nothing to praise.

For me the day they locked me out of my apple watch because I dared to replace it's broken screen is when I realized apple is full of shit when it's about repairability and especially about environment.
> Imho it’s unlikely this is for natively running on a standalone headset. The overhead of translation alone would be just burning already limited compute budgets.

I wonder if with both Windows and Valve getting into ARM64, that will bring significant enough pressure on the market for ARM OEMs (and ARM itself) to start including a x86-transpilation mode similar to the one Apple has in their M-series of CPUs to increase the performance of Rosetta2.
> Can you link some think tank pieces arguing against remote work?

That's not the argument I made in my comment. I simply noted that if anyone wanted to hire a group to argue for (or against) remote work then such groups already exist and have done for decades.

If there's a coordinated press placing of "back to work" articles then the starting point would be all the articles that make that case (or talk about that subject) and look for authors, their bio's, whether these are staff writer pieces (and if so whether they heavily quote "research shows" vague sources), opinion pieces, etc.

The hardest to spot and most common is staff writers who cover all manner of things (no obvious bias) who are 90% copy pasta'ing unacknowledged "press releases" "media statements" handed to them on a plate by the Institute for Lazy Reporting.

US work from home isn't an area of any interest to me and I have no particular awareness of any of the US writing on the subject.

I'm an Australian that's largely worked remote (but not always from home) since the mid 1980s, largely for transnational resource companies.

Part of my professional career did involve tracing and sourcing released information intended to sway opinion, but that was all related to mineral and energy resources.
What I typically saw were people in the office doing a lot of nothing, because if they were in the office it was “working” just being there. Those working from home worked extra hard to try and prove they were actually working and making sure they were getting noticed.
It’s kinda…interesting…to see the sort of people that think that this topic, and point of view, haven’t both been talked about to death.
As with all things like this, the closer we get to the end of the line with this WFH discussion, the more utterly delusional (as to the originality of one’s POV) one has to be to choose to write yet another ‘think piece’ about it. As an effect of that, the more utterly braindead the opinions become.
It also says a lot about modern online society. Instead of just being grumpy that something didn’t go your way, you need to form a worldview that makes The Other Guys out to be a cartoonishly villainous cabal, set to attack everything you hold dear.

I’m a manager that prefers an in-person team. My reasons are related to productivity. Any commercial real estate that happens to be in my portfolio is separated from me by enough intermediate aggregators that I don’t spend an iota thinking about it. I actually work for an organisation whose senior leadership prefer remote work, so I’m not just a kiss-ass or anything. What does OP’s POV say about me? Do I not exist? Am I a paid shill?

Honestly, and I say this as one, developers can be so bloody petulant.

Seattle as a city is designed with all of those in mind except the livestock part.

Plenty of wild nature preserves, coyotes running around, rabbits playing along the side walks, and parks all over the place.

It is possible for cities to be built around the concept of being integrated with nature, though in the specific case of London, it is too late to tear down a bunch of houses just to increase the density of parks.

The ULEZ has covered the entirety of London, including Limehouse, for more than a year.

The outer zones of the city are definitely dirtier, but it has less to do with ULEZ and more to do with practical travel times. Despite great public transport, getting between the spokes of the wheel is still a challenge, so people who don’t work in the city centre often drive. The further out you go, the more people like that there are.

The app isn't there to improve on this. The app is there to maaaybe cut a little bit of hassle with replacing paper menus, but mostly promises to improve the business analytics site and creates many marketing opportunities, including but not limited to screwing with (er, personalizing) recommendations, creating incentive structures, and better tracking thanks to tricking the user into giving the vendor their phone number and bunch of other data.

And, whatever else on top it is, one thing the app is not is an improvement in convenience or experience to the user.

I’m disappointed nobody tried to make a computer with only GPU-like cores.

That it’s possible we already know - the initial bring-up of a Raspberry Pi is done by the GPU, before the ARM cores are started, so, for that brief moment, there is a GPU doing some very CPU things.

> The day they actually support native Linux games

Not "the day a majority of their library is linux native"

As others mentioned valve has been developing their games as linux native already, what do you expect them to do? Force every single developer to support all the platforms possible? Delete all the games not linux native?
For me peak worse is tables where you get dealt with a single iPad, even when visiting with six people. Which you then get to pass along. And then the 'tech experts' take care of ordering for those who don't get computers, like many elderly folks.
There was a SuperH in my parents' Panasonic TV - I found the GPL license and kernel info deep in the menu system.
Yeah tethered with a newer generation steam link wireless protocol would be great. They move everything forwards whenever they try something new
I think they just have the good sense to run away, because even if they fixed things, they would be hated and mocked relentlessly for it. See for example every contemporary blog rediscovering “wow, makefiles just work, and this tech is 50 years old” and the number of contrarian reactions to it in discussion threads. For every dev that values ubiquitous, simple, predictable, and stable solutions.. there’s 3 who want to use something that’s much more complex, and has a shelf life of just a few years before it’s replaced with the new hotness.
This is only my opinion : it will work, but you will constantly feel like you're fighting against it / the expected way to do things.
> Your friend was probably not thinking "fair" or "unfair", rather, what is the employment market bringing him.

In a relatively free labor market (like e.g. California’s) that perspective is fine with me, because you probably have to pay more for the conscientious “75%” developers you need. But Sweden has a heavily regulated and unionized labor market where differences in pay are typically motivated by the collectively agreed “fairness”.

I can assure you that your argument would have been just as foreign for my acquaintance.
Well it only listed one record by genre under "gabber", but it was DJ Scotch Egg so it scores a few points from me (even though it should've been listed under "breakcore").

An alternative to Agile is Deep Work, which focuses on uninterrupted time for focused problem-solving instead of frequent meetings and updates. While Agile promotes quick iterations, Deep Work emphasizes sustained concentration, allowing teams to tackle complex tasks without distractions. It’s not a framework, but a focus-oriented approach that could complement or enhance existing workflows.
> The coup de grace is I don't even get a discount for the degraded service.

It's like self-service checkouts: the store gets to save on stuff and get their customers do the store's work instead, and we don't even get a discount for that free labor and more time spent in checkout and degraded experience.
If we oversimplify everything, yes... it's all about prop up real estate prices. But if we want to talk about this, we need to have in mind the capital amortization. The value of every business goes up or down if their fixed capital gets old or unused. For example, if you have 100 computers and every computer costs 1000, your company has that value as capital. But if they lose value in the next years and those same computers have a value of 50 in the market, then your company's value is halved (oversimplifiying it). The same happens with buildings and offices, if they lose values the company loses value too. Forcing workers to move to the office gives value to the area and the building, and the buildings around, and that's one of the main reasons why they are forcing the back to office thing.
Limehouse is way inside the ULEZ, like miles inside.
I feel you, this definitely is a Google-wide issue across products (e.g. https://x.com/levelsio/status/1831840497629065656).
These products themselves are worth a try IMHO.
Limehouse is now far inside the current ULEZ boundary.

While there are small upper-class enclaves in the city center, the most affluent areas of London are the outer boroughs. You can this reflected in electoral maps as well, where the center is mostly Labour, while the outer boroughs have typically voted more rightwing.

ULEZ has expanded outward step by step, but the strongest resistance to further expansion has come from the more affluent areas further out.
Just wanted to post back to share that I researched such incidences and except for a few cases where the hospital was sued and lost and doctors fired, I didn't find any examples of this as an accepted or legally viable practice. If you have some examples to share, I'll be interested.
Calling stuff a "conspiracy theory" is just a thought-terminating cliché, and measuring the ability of humans to conspire [0] by equating that ability with stuff like Elvis still being alive isn't the attempt of an argument, it's just a slogan.

[0] for which there is no communication between them required, or even conscious desire to "conspire" of single one of them. Consider how mobbing can go. People don't go "so, we're all racist, and this new guy is X, so I propose you are kinda sarcastic to him, and I forget to remind him of the thing tomorrow". It doesn't even happen that way in bad fiction, much less so in real life.

Or put more positively, consider how teamwork and healthy group behavior can go, too. Most of it is simply done, gets fine-tuned by doing, and only some of it is thought, spoken or written about, usually in hindsight, often as a rationalization.

Definitely agree. Sorry if the article sounds a bit negative, but I'm overall still in favor of building in public, for various reasons like the ones you mentioned.
Have to disagree with this. At a group meet-up where everyone arrives at different times and wants their order to come shortly after they do, a digital system is so much better. These type of meetups are quite common as a parent.

It takes 14,493,515,821 cycles to boot Alpine Linux in an qemu.

perf stat -Bddd qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -cdrom alpine.iso -boot d -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp 2 -net nic -net user,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 -nographic -serial mon:stdio -monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:1234,server,nowait -d in_asm,cpu -D qemu.log

It takes 1,927,757,029,221 cycles to summarize a 1625 token Dijkstra essay with LLaMA 8B.

perf stat -Bddd llamafile -m Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct.BF16.gguf -f ~/prompt1625.txt -c 4096 -n 40

Ignoring things like AVX512 you're looking at about 100x more compute to do something serious with LLaMA.

However! If you just want to demo it working, then you could generate 4 tokens using TinyLLaMA 1.1B which takes 25,164,386,466 cycles. That's about the same cost as booting Linux. So you could do TinyLLaMA if you can do Linux.
International law dictates that reserves soldiers that are not in active duty are considered civilians - hence targeting them is a war crime.

And yes, there's something called collateral damage, which depends on the situation is considered legal, so yes, if you actually target a military target and happen to also hit civilians that reside in that target it is not a war crime. But it is a war crime if you just generally lob rockets in a direction hoping to hit something.
He's got the kernel of a good idea. Deterministic data flows are a good thing. We keep almost getting there, with things like data flow architectures, FPGAs, etc. But there's always a premature optimization for the silicon, instead of the whole system. This leads to failure, over, and over.

He's wrong in the idea of using an LLM for general purpose compute. Using math instead of logic isn't a good thing for many use cases. You don't want a database, or an FFT in a Radar System to hallucinate, for example.

My personal focus is on homogeneous, clocked, bit level systolic arrays.[2] I'm starting to get the feeling the idea is really close to being a born secret[1] though, as it might enable anyone to really make high performance chips on any fab node.

few comments

- you are ordering food and drinks, speed is not essentials, if you're in a hurry you don't sit down in a diner/restaurant

- you assume that everything on the menu is perfectly clear, but what exactly is that thing with the mysterious name? (for example peri peri fries means nothing to me) you can ask to a person, not to a PDF

- you really want X but you have food allergies or some other dietary restriction, again you can ask that to staff, not to a web site

- most importantly, you're assuming that waiting is generally considered an inefficiency, that should be addressed or fixed and that should be the goal of every place serving food and beverages, while it usually is the moment were people sit and relax and have a little chat, it is called lunch break for a reason, isn't it? It's the generalization of XKCD #303.

p.s. in my experience in places that use QR code menus orders are not served faster, actually the opposite is often true.
+1, well said
TBH running through a Win32/DX API shim isn't much different than running through SDL, yet Linux games using the SDL are considered "native" but Win32 games running through Proton are not?

(the Win32 and DX APIs are also much more straightforward to use than wrestling directly with X11, Wayland, Vulkan and the Linux audio API flavour of the month)
I have never used it, seems interesting and I will definitely will.
> Interfacing with C from Rust is harder

Sure, harder, but not really all that difficult. Run bindgen over the NDK headers and see what happens. Sure, for ergonomics you'll want to write safe Rust wrappers. After that's done once, it's done.

> Rust has fewer cross-compile targets.

Not really an issue here. Rust supports all the targets Android runs on. Natively, even:

$ rustup target list | grep android
aarch64-linux-android
arm-linux-androideabi
armv7-linux-androideabi
i686-linux-android
thumbv7neon-linux-androideabi
x86_64-linux-android
Presumably this car is a small and light one - not a large truck that takes a lot of space and pollutes a lot...
Because they don't care, and their customers don't understand any of this shit?

It feels like the usual case of vendors buying service to better exploit the users, and themselves getting burned and/or exploited by that service too.
Remote power management can be a godsend. If you can get an ipmi console in, you want it.
