Bought an iPhone 16 pro max on launch day. Went to the Apple Store with my iPhone 15 pro max, and was encouraged to transfer my data in the store. I sat there for 7 hours, with both phones connected via hard wired Ethernet, and was still not successful. The only use case I can come up with for higher speed physical is direct phone to phone data transfer during these upgrade cycles. I’m appalled by how much doesn’t work on my new phone - passwords that need to be re-established, music that needs to be downloaded. It’s not a traditionally clean “it just works” Apple experience. I’d like to plug a USB cable into both phone, and within 15min, have my new phone exactly like my old phone - exactly the same. It was so bad, I may skip future refresh cycles - and the reason Apple may thing about actually fixing the experience.

The only banter is when the producer offers tea at the end, which seems incredibly necessary to me.
That seems like a horrible design choice, though. It just randomly and gratuitously punishes the player for something they couldn't even have foreseen.

Enforcing laws on farms is challenging, often to the point of futility, and particularly when you’re talking about large-scale ranches.
I 100% agree. I'm just a casual multi-language programmer these days, but I'm familiar with Rocket.
Next.js is not nearly flexible enough. I'd never use it. It feels like rails, but somehow even more tightly coupled than that.
I think we need a version of the New Battery Technology Checklist[1] for this type of article. (Though I understand that the research itself often just aims solve specific tensions in cosmology, and it is only the reporting that over-hypes it as a full replacement for dark matter.)

Dear alternative dark matter theory claimant,

Thank you for your submission of a proposed revolutionary theory to replace dark matter. Your new theory claims to be superior to dark matter models and will transform our understanding of the universe. Unfortunately, your theory will likely fail, because:

[ ] It cannot explain galaxy rotation curves across all galaxy types.

[ ] It fails to account for gravitational lensing observed in galaxy clusters.

[ ] It cannot explain the Bullet Cluster observations where dark matter appears separated from normal matter.

[ ] It is inconsistent with the cosmic microwave background anisotropies.

[ ] It cannot explain the large-scale structure and formation of the universe.

[ ] It introduces arbitrary parameters without physical justification.

[ ] It lacks a sound theoretical foundation or violates established physics principles.

[ ] It fails to explain the observed velocity dispersions in dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

[ ] It cannot account for empirical relations like the Tully-Fisher relation.

[ ] It cannot be tested or falsified by current or near-future experiments.

[ ] Your claims are unfounded or exaggerated.

Rust is not for lazy developers and there are other languages if you want to put minimal effort in building things.

Are we seeing mass extinction caused by warming though? I see extinctions caused by pyrethroids, chemical runoff, excessive hunting, deforestation, overfishing, cats, other direct human caused disruption to biomes, but directly from carbon dioxide emission? Maybe I missed it, but so far it's just warnings that fail to materialize where carbon emission is concerned, unless I'm misinformed.
It's a double edged sword. On the one hand the model helps to explain the "impossible early galaxy" problem (since the universe is older than we thought).

On the other hand, if the universe is older there are other things that will need more research to figure out.

You should be sceptical, but there is not as yet a reason to entirely reject it. I'm not really a fan of the tired light theories myself, but glad to see different ideas being explored.
Just checked. It does load. PowerBi is slow though.
Literacy is important. Understanding Shakespeare and/or Tennyson is as much a part of that as is Pratchett. You will read Pratchett on your own, though, and you probably won't go reaching for the Shakespeare, so you might as well get some forced exposure. Understanding rhetoric is a very underappreciated skill, but an important one.
I'd rather use an external job scheduler and message queue, eg in kubernetes, rather than build it into the language runtime. With a message queue and horizontal pod autoscaling you can very quickly build an easy distributed workload with (at least to me) little effort in any language
Over-taking that approach we have 20MB+ websites (images excluded) and maybe hardware is faster, but connections are not improving at the same pace.

Sad for me is also current state of responsiveness - we had 20 or maybe 200 times slower hardware and website felt faster than now. Maybe it’s how the stars are aligned, but maybe it’s building multiple virtual element trees and discard them every click or event that happens on webpage. I dream about feeling this 20x increase in responsiveness as hardware should allow.

Eventually you run out of work to distribute across cores, but it doesn't really matter there are lots of resources not being used to their fullest potential: NVMe drives offer little benefit to games because the drives are mostly idle after the files load, 16 - 32GB of RAM offers little benefit because most games don't have enough state or data to occupy it, etc. I think aiming as low as possible - the Steam Deck - has been much more rewarding for gamers.

If startups only ever made what people already want, there would be nothing new.

There's no surefire recipe for introducing something new that people don't currently want because it doesn't exist, but that they will want once they see it. And there plenty of ways to screw it up, so that someone who comes after you with the same thing will take over the market.

Sometimes people don't want something until somebody else has it, and they don't even understand it until then. Especially someone in their peer group. The marketing may have explained it accurately, but people don't trust the marketing rhetoric, and brush it aside as the usual half truths and exaggerations that advertising is chock full of.

Elixir gives you Agent, which is what you want, but for reasons, Agent is a bad choice.

What you're not seeing with the handle_* functions is all the extra stuff in there that deals with, for example, "what if the thing you want to access is unavailable?". That's not really something that for example go is able to handle so easily.
it takes me literally half an hour to thoughtfully find and apply to a single job, which has less than a 1% chance of me getting a job. In reality the percentage is probably closer to 0.2%. I'm a software developer with a decade of experience. It's a really shitty job market out there and I don't blame the automation of a task that seems hopeless anyway.
It's not as if Android offers anything either. Third party tools like syncthing can be used to backup the camera folder, but the root android folder is protected against copying because of permissions issues that Google refuses to fix. Same if you connect it to an external SSD. You have to root your phone truly be able to make a simple, complete backup. But that comes with a lot of disadvantages for financial apps, security, etc.
Patent trolls buy them from people who reduced them to practice and then went out of business. Their inventions being copied is often part of why those companies went out of business.

Without patent trolls, there would be no reason for startups to get patents - you are just going to go bankrupt before the litigation finishes otherwise.
“Slow” scripting languages worked in the 90s for the web and they work even better for now, plus you have more to choose from. The key is to shell out to other tools for heavy lifting, like a database. Multi process architectures are where Linux really shines.

Rust can fit in that picture, but it doesn’t need to be routing http.
That's a pile of tricks, not a mental model though.

A mental model might be something like "JavaScript has strict and non-strict comparisons", but there are no strict less-than comparisons for example, so remembering to use === instead of == is just a one-off neat tip rather than an application of some more general rule.
I'm a lazy developer and I love languages with an "if it compiles it works" feel. I'd much rather hack around in rust or typescript with half my brain switched off and a beer in hand and eventually get working software than hack around in javascript with half my brain switched off and a beer in hand and get more and more broken software until I eventually give up.
I've avoided all the stupid ideas of the past 20 years or so.

The only effective way to deal with property crime during or after the fact is with increased surveillance. The success of Meta Ray Bans may make the decision for us, but until then, it's fair to point out that this is, in fact, a conversation about how much freedom we want to give up for security.

It seems more effective and less intrusive to deal with the upstream socioeconomic causes of crime (too much inequality, not enough opportunity, an overemphasis on materiality and consumption, and an underemphasis on community and expression).

This is a fascinating post. It reads to me like some kind of cross between literate-programming and poetry. It's really trying to explain the idea that when you run `just foo` the very 0x0A byte comes from possibly hundreds of cycles of code generation. Back in the day, someone encoded this information into OCaml compiler -- somehow -- and years later here in my computer 0x0A information is stored due to this history.

But the way in which this phenomena is explained is via actual code. The code itself is besides the point of course, it's not like anyone will ever run or compile this specific code, but it's put there for humans to follow the discussion.

Or you could do with almost zero effort in a BEAM language. And sometimes setting up a kuberbetes cluster is not easy. Suppose you want to have one part that is hosted on a cloud service and another that is on-prem.

It's certainly possible with kuberbetes, but you'll be fighting the kuberbetes paradigm. Plus you're checking in to this kuberbetes middleman for part A to understand the availability of part B, for example.

Kuberbetes is highly devex optimized for stateless services that are kinda cattle. Not all use cases fit so neatly into that rubric.

Strawman on the WYSIWIG editor vs text editor question. That is not an "automated decision-making system"

> Automation bias is the propensity for humans to favor suggestions from automated decision-making systems and to ignore contradictory information made without automation, even if it is correct.

Note this 1998 NASA paper to further refute the IDE/WYSIWYG editor claims.

https://ntrs.nasa.gov/citations/19980048379

> This study clarified that automation bias is something unique to automated decision making contexts, and is not the result of a general tendency toward complacency.

The problems with automation bias has been known for decades and the studies in the human factors field is quite robust.

While we are still way to early in the code assistant world to have much data IMHO, there is evidence called out even in studies that edge towards positive results in coding assistants that point out issues with complacency and automation bias.

> On the other hand, our eye tracking results of RQ2 suggest that
programmers make fewer fixations and spend less time reading

no inspection. This has been reported by another paper that studied
Copilot [24].

One thing I dislike with erlang based languages (both gleam and elixir) is that they use “<>” for string concatenation.

In F#, “<>” is the equivalent of “!=“. Postgres also uses <> for inequality so my queries and f# code have that consistency.

Using Gentoo as an example of how Linux is hard to use is a bad argument. I have Mac, Linux and windows PCs and they all have fairly ridiculous thing that users of those OS's excuse because they are used to it. I'm not sure how that is an excuse. I'm just reiterating what my og comment said here.
I'm not surprised that China, Russia & UK have plans for their own constellations, and eventually India too.
The thing is, why 10? Why not 9 or 11? The code says "if you see 'string of newline character', output 'newline character'". How does the compiler know what a newline character is? Its code in turn just says "if you see 'string of newline character', treat it as 'newline character'"...

As a human I can just Google "C string escape codes", but that table is nowhere to be found inside the compiler. If C 2025 is going to define Start of Heading as \h, is `'h' => cooked.push('\h')` going to magically start working? How could it possibly know?

Clearly at some point someone must've manually programmed a `'n' => 10` mapping, but where is it!?
TypeScript sure, but Rust? Half your brain switched off? There is a middle ground between unfettered madness and the Rust compiler's strict regime. Maybe try Elm.
By definition of going to war, they are willing to risk their very existence. Taking out satellites and making orbit entry fraught with hazards seems a very rational choice for many opponents on the world stage.
Yes. The research has conclusively proven an increased likelihood of offspring in those cases.

Generally the textbook commons are resources which are not easily divided up into private ownership, like large bodies of water that feed a large number of people via fishing. Of course in some cases new technology can enable privatization of previous commons.
Starlink satellites are vulnerable to repeated uplink transmitting their preamble code (which is public and the same across any user terminal). The satellites are so tuned to that code you can jam them through their receive sidelobes.. taking out all beams on the satellite.
I was about to write this complaint myself then I found your comment. The planet would've looked completely different and unrecognizable when we had rings.

Artificial wombs are fascinating and I hope they eventually become a viable alternative for mothers.

But I see them as being perhaps a somewhat more distant future possibility to fully replace a real womb due to the all of challenges.

When I think about the long term future of humanity and human development, I can't help but assume that things like artificial intelligence and simulation will have a significant role. In other words, trans-human and post-humanism.

Many techno-optimists like myself already anticipate superhuman artificial intelligence in less than 10 years. We might eventually (some decades further down the road) arrive at the point where it is easier to produce a "son" or "daughter" with the exact qualities we desire by 3d printing and model/knowledge configuration.
> I really like AI. It shortens the trip to google, more or less.

Is this "AI is good" or "Google is shit" or "Web is shit and Google reflects that"?

This is kind of an important distinction. Perhaps I'm viewing the past through rose-tinted glasses, but it feels like searching for code stuff was way better back about 2005. If you searched and got a hit, it was something decent as someone took the time to put it on the web. If you didn't get a hit, you either hit something predating the web (hunting for VB6 stuff, for example) or were in very deep (Use the Source, Luke).

Hmmm, that almost sounds like we're trying to use AI to unwind an Eternal September brought on by StackOverflow and Github. I might buy that.

The big problem I have is that AI appears to be polluting any remaining signal faster than AI is sorting through the garbage. This is already happening in places like "food recipes" where you can't trust textual web results anymore--you need a secondary channel (either a prep video or a primary source cookbook, for example) to authenticate that the recipe is factually correct.

My biggest fear is that this has already happened in programming, and we just haven't noticed yet.

This is computing CRC-64, not CRC-32, so there's not really a comparison. But perhaps most importantly, ours works with a variety of polynomials (there are a lot! [1])... we're just using the NVME one, but it's trivially adaptable to most (all?) of them. (The Intel instruction you link to only works with two - CRC32 and CRC32C)

Finally, it's based on Intel's paper [2], so they also believe it's extremely fast. :)
