> My hope is that by choosing the MIT license for my bindings, one commercial app in the world will choose to use Qt Widgets instead of Electron

I still do t understand this logic. When you combine MIT and LGPL you don't get MIT, you get MIT+LGPL so now you have to take care of both licenses. Electron's LGPL parts don't magically disappear - when you start an Electron app all the things that happen from main() up to executing the first line of your js app code are LGPL
I can't see any issue with what's in the installation part. It all looks very straightforward for _each_ installation method.

The prize winners are ultimately selected by a group of mid-age to old professors. And to tell the truth (I work at a research institute in Stockholm), some of the old folks seem to have huge FOMO. They know that they cannot keep up themselves, they have no idea (and no way of finding out) who is actually good and who is just pretending, which leads to recruitment of an 'interesting' bunch of young group leaders. Some of them are surely good, but I know of at least one guy who holds presentations as if he invented AlphaFold himself, while having contributed one single paper of interest to the field. Large turn off for me.

I suppose that depends on the language and the elegance of your programming paradigm. This is where primitive simplicity becomes important, because when your foundation is composed of very few things that are not dependent upon each other you can scale almost indefinitely in every direction.

Imagine you are limited to only a few ingredients in programming: statements, expressions, functions, objects, arrays, and operators that are not overloaded. That list does not contain classes, inheritance, declarative helpers, or a bunch of other things. With a list of ingredients so small no internal structure or paradigm is imposed on you, so you are free to create any design decisions that you want. Those creative decisions about the organization of things is how you dictate the scale of it all.

Most people, though, cannot operate like that. They claim to want the freedom of infinite scale, but they just need a little help. With more help supplied by the language, framework, whatever the less freedom you have to make your own decisions. Eventually there is so much help that all you do as a programmer is contend with that helpful goodness without any chance to scale things in any direction.
Without even visiting the page I can predict what this writing will be about with uncanny accuracy.

1. Big words at the start - pretending to hack at a problem so big that just swinging the axe is a major undertaking

2. The prose slowly drifts to make less and less sense; words have no practical meaning anymore.

3. Simplistic images galore. Various plots via cellular automata and "pretty" images show things that have nothing to do with the topic and are only distant metaphors at best. Yet these images are the proof that it all "works."

4. A nothingburger by the end. Leaves you wondering, why did I read all this?

> In general I don't particularly care what other people say on this topic

Nor do I see why I should particularly listen to what you say on this topic, given that others have similarly claimed authority from their lawyers or from their local jurisdictions.

> The second one linking to Verasafe's page on which it clearly says that yes, you should delete it.

Right before the "But don’t panic! Enforcement authorities know how difficult it is to fulfil this obligation in practice." section, where it elaborates on your ability to claim that stripping data from backups is technically infeasible, in which case you must promise to delete the data on restoration. Just like I've heard from everyone else.

It's always seemed paradoxical to me that the GDPR is branded as this unyielding hammer against companies improperly storing your data, only for it to be riddled with amorphous holes on every axis. "Data is data, period, unless it's not on a live production system, in which case the written vague rules it abides by are swapped out for a new set of totally undefined rules!"

> You still need to remove it either directly or your retention policy for backups needs to be short enough that keeping it in backups for a while is judged as reasonable.

And how might I know a priori what's the longest 'reasonable' retention term that a business might be permitted by its jurisdiction? The whole nature of backups is that they're useless right up until they aren't, so the marginal value of each additional week is difficult to measure in the first place. And when most concrete talk of 'reasonableness' is seemingly done behind closed doors if at all, I have no idea just how far other jurisdictions' ideas of a reasonable term might differ from mine.
Are you sure they're not just "preparing for the migration" and plan to stay on premise? I also worked at many places that had it on premise - all of them planned to migrate ASAP (where asap is sometimes years).
I've been running Arch+Hyprland on my laptop for very nearly 1.5 years. For whatever reason, I've not had the negative experience you describe; it's run buttery-smooth and reliably for me. I like it.
I was originally left-handed, but my father made me switch to my right hand because he believed being left-handed was the "hand of the devil." Now, I’ve become ambidextrous, and I instinctively choose which hand to use depending on the activity. Sometimes, when I'm trying something for the first time and I'm unsure which hand is best, I get stuck and have to go through some trial and error before it feels natural.
The thing is, we may have an ear preference but switching doesn't seem to be that big a deal. UK cops are taught to pick up the phone with their non-dominant hand so that their dominant hand can take notes. I'm guessing _most_ people use their dominant hand to hold their phone unless they're accustomed to taking notes.

The fundamental flaw with Lenat's approach is that humans do not think with first order predicate calculus. We do not juggle a bunch of statements/rules the way Cyc does, but have a very fast, efficient and powerful conceptual approach to the world with a massive amount of recursive conceptual inference.

Effectively, you need to understand (compute with) what concepts are before using them in statements. And the most common mistake is to confuse the definition of a concept with the concept itself, as happens typically with knowledge graphs.

The big problem are WITCH companies (of which "C" is for Cognizant usually) and those that, through osmosis or purposeful actions, copy their practices.

The contracting companies probably single-handed build and maintain lots of racist stereotypes against indians, because the level of service those companies offer is always unmitigated failure, even internally. I once accidentally stumbled into working on a contract through WiPro myself, and it was a horrific experience. The way I see it, the line workers that end up the target of ire and stereotypes are just victims of actions taken way above them.

The people who can, apparently avoid working for them, or use every opportunity to escape. Those who can't yet but have ambition for more, apparently use every opportunity to escape - whether it is by jumping ship on H1B, or otherwise. Those currently stuck are in no way encouraged to do a good job, and for obvious cost cutting you get people who were in no way prepared to do the job.

Occasionally a client will get angry enough and they will pull an actually skilled person to smooth the ruffled feathers, someone they usually trot for dog&pony show when winning the contract as example of who is supposed to work on it.

But the "important" people, upper management who decide to contract with WITCH, and the upper management of WITCH who run such strategy, they all profit. The managers and/or C-level who outsource sight-unseen with no quality enforcement disappear with their rewards before institutional inertia stops papering over their decisions. The WITCH companies pocket huge amounts of money while paying pittance to line workers and providing worse than zero service.

A wrong answer is a wrong answer. In one of the questions it failed exactly in the same manner that GPT-4o did when I asked, so it’s not clear at all this is better. I could even see the chain and identify exactly where it made the mistake, but that’s not really a consolation.

I agree! Honestly, Go made building this quite pleasant, as it has nice abstractions for networking and a great concurrency model. I'm planning to keep it minimal for now, but I would like to add Windows support, SSH multiplexing and maybe some form of throughput measurement. But I'm open to ideas :)
yes, with my right hand. i don't think my hearing is asymmetric, i think i just appreciate having my dominant hand free while i talk.

I would argue that a watch can also be tracked but not in the sense that a phone can.

Assuming a Rolex gets stolen and reported as stolen, it can never be serviced by any reputable watch repair shop because it will be confiscated once that happens. In the case of Rolex, they will get serviced BY Rolex. Mechanical watches do need servicing otherwise they wont function properly. So even though watches cannot be tracked to the same level of fidelity as say, a phone with an antenna, it will likely still pop up eventually.

You can also make the argument that "Find My" and "activation locks" type stuff just means that the parts are going to get scrapped and sold. That could likely happen in the watch case too, so those features were never a silver bullet.
Correct. I’m saying that the justification provided:

> Because we want to plug into GCC, so that we can use the rest of the compiler chain to output to all of the architectures that GCC supports.

is invalidated by rust_codegen_gcc and thus is not a good reason for a new frontend.

This is the most frustrating news I’ve read about taxes. As an American, I’d like to think that our tax system was designed to be fair. Yes, Warren Buffet’s secretary famously paid a higher tax percentage than he did, because all of his wealth was in unrealized gains. I’d accepted that - with the understanding that upon Warren’s death, estate taxes would be paid, and “fairness” would be restored to the system. But, lobbying for tax loopholes, wealth left to charities where heirs are awarded outrageous management fees, etc are ways for the extremely wealthy to avoid ever paying these estate taxes. When I heard the democrats push for a billionaire tax, I was quite cynical, as I thought the fairness issue would be resolved through estate taxes. This $7B being an anomaly, suggests that the wealthy are engineering their way around paying these estate taxes. I thought those problems were limited to “step-up” in cost basis type of giveaways to the wealthy. Now I’m reading that even the basic estate taxes aren’t being paid. I’m livid. Hate to say this, but I may now support the democrats plan. It’s a horrible plan, but apparently estate taxes aren’t working either.

Buncombe honestly did a much better job than the surrounding counties. Up here in Madison County most of the updates were only posted on Facebook. A lot of the updates from here and surrounding counties were posted on Facebook as photos of text or videos with no caption.

I get that these counties don’t have the budget or the technical staff for this but it’s really unfortunate.
Which again is a completely different argument than what you started with. The argument was that nuclear power was replaced with coal and gas.

As we've concluded it evidently was not. Both coal and nuclear power has been replaced with renewables.

I would suggest you stop spreading falsehoods.

Nobody is going to escape the adtech blackhole before the US govt. actually does its job and does to Google, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, and a few others what it did to Standard Oil or AT&T.

We're talking about entities so tentacular and rich that they can (and did) run whatever service you provide for free for decades, just to kill you and gain control. No legitimate business can resist that.

So you say, but history has shown that if groups don’t exist to allow easy discrimination, they will be created to allow such discrimination.

So it’s a good sign of long, well established, and ingrained discrimination, eh? With associated infrastructure to make it easier to continue, and ‘fairer’ in that it allows almost everyone to have someone under them to take their own angst out on. (Except those ‘outside the system’ anyway, which historically were the Dalits, but now even they are in the system eh?)

Hello, potential friend.
Qt Quick doesn't launch a browser.
I really enjoyed Gollum for awhile, but I'm not a Rubyist, and past a certain point, every time I tried to run it or Jekyll I got dependency problems that I'd eventually solve, but without understanding. It was undoubtedly user error; I should definitely have learned and used rvm or something.
Similar story for my wife, though it was an underfunded Catholic school with only right-handed sports equipment that pushed her to be ambidextrous. She's split pretty much 50:50 on which hand she does something with, though I've noticed she does actually seem to pick her left hand when its a totally new skill she hasn't done before.

My right hand is all but useless, I'm very left handed. Golf is the only exception, but I'm terrible in either direction and right handed clubs are easier to rent or buy.
I’d estimate that fraction of Nvidia’s dominance that’s dependent on their distinctive advantages in kernel primitives (add vs. multiply) would be a rounding error in FP8.

The CUDA tooling and ecosystem, VLSI architecture, organizational prowess… all matter at multiple orders of magnitude more.
Sounds like the awesome architecture for transformers would be colocation of memory and compute.
Could it just be that for centuries leading up to now left handedness was considered "bad" to "very bad" (still many languages have the connotation) and before that we have no real data about how common it was?
As I said - it’s not perfect at answering every question right. What I am saying is that CoT promoting does have an effect on the quality of LLM responses. Ask how many r in strawberry or a similar question to t1 and llama 3.1 and you will see that CoT strategy has some effect.

Thank WiPro/Infosys/Tata/Cognizant/HCL and everyone who apes their practices.

The end result is that you see a mention of "Bangalore" and you get immediate shivers because it doesn't matter how nice and good as a person the people you are forced to work with are, if the entire qualification you can discern is that they are statistically expected to speak english, and their work environment and supervisors enforce certain counter-productive behaviours. Which is honestly abusive to the poor person in Bangalore, because it's not like they can learn the skills this way either.

To the point that I once had security team in a company where specific area of security might involve "uncomfortable questions from government" in cases of failure (fortunately not defense industry) actually sponsor my efforts to bypass supposedly crucial firewall - because connectivity including said firewall were handled by TCS.

I think I disagree with most of the comments here stating it’s premature to give the Nobel to AlphaFold.

I’m in biotech academia and it has changed things already. Yes the protein folding problem isn’t “solved” but no problem in biology ever is. Comparing to previous bio/chem Nobel winners like Crispr, touch receptors, quantum dots, click chemistry, I do think AlphaFold already has reached sufficient level of impact.

Why do you believe this was malicious and/or explicitly to make money? The use of lead pipes was a well established practice that started in the early 1800s and continued until the federal government banned them in 1986.

The original people involved had no awareness of the danger. As awareness grew, you could make the case that people in the 80s could have stopped installing these pipes sooner, but by then, most of the system was already in place and the continued installations were based on 150+ years of precedent and policy.

A majority of the decision makers (not necessarily just politicians) responsible for the policies and a majority of the pipes are dead.

The exemption is a matter of pure practicality. There are only so many crews capable of doing this work and so much of the water system that can be disrupted at one time.
I'm predominantly left-handed, except on the computer. Where I use the mouse with my right hand and play FPS games using the mouse on my right hand, as well. Not sure how common this is.
Yeah If you're using narrow strings for UTF8 you're making a mistake. wstrings also are not a good representation because of the platform differences, unless you don't care about Windows in which case it's fine but still not great semantically.

In most type definitions you cannot convert UTF8 via simple iteration because the type generally represents a code point and not a character.

You can have a library where UTF8 characters are a native type and code points are a mostly-hidden internal element. But again, that's highly opinionated for C++.
std::tolower / std::toupper are rubbish functions that can't do proper Unicode but still pull in the bloated locale machinery for what should be a simple conditional integer addition if all you care about is ASCII. Both have no valid use case and should be marked [[deprecated]] and erased from all teaching materials.

When we first started using Kotlin, it was like you said. The devs were eager to try all the new possibilites and apply them wherever possible. Resulting in sometimes needlessly complicated solutions. After the initial excitement faded, everyone is now much more conservative.
Kotlin is still very much appreciated by pretty much everyone. But now sometimes I even have to remind a coworker when there's a language feature or a built-in collection function that might help them.

That’s me being very very generous and just restating the supposed goal of this effort since rust_codegen_gcc provides a much better solution to the “I want to be able to hit all the gcc targets”.

I’m not actually convinced that a new fronted actually helps as much for that effort especially when weighed against the very real downsides we see in c and c++. I have a strong suspicion that addressing under specified parts of the current implementation can be done more cheaply and effectively using other mechanisms.

Indeed, I don’t see the typescript community really complaining that there isn’t another implementation of typescript. And cpython remains the de facto Python implementation with other distributions seeing less adoption due to network effects and I don’t really see cpython benefiting from the existence of the other frontends.
