My approach these days is to follow a meditation mantra:

1. Slow down - the moment I'm aware my mind is no longer quiet and alert because of some trigger (internal or external)

2. Stop suffering - I do a quick body scan for the associated sensations along the body, tell myself this is just a temporary mood change, it will go away the same way it made its way into my body and mind

3. Take a deep breadth - I focus on my breadth for a few seconds and relax

4. Let it go - I know I should not blindly believe any thoughts or feelings that take over my mind and try to get back to a relaxed state of mind

I do this all the time not just during a few minutes of formal pratice. Its so ingrained in my way of being that some people close to me say my personality drastically changed.

But there's still a long way to go.
A grid set up to handle unreliable sources can deal with unreliable sources. A grid that depends on reliable sources is in trouble when reliable sources go off line.
The one thing i was hoping for from civet is the trailing closure syntax from swift, which would make jsx less needed and make similar dsl usage way more convenient. There is absolutely a place to get real world experience with syntax that did not make it or is not ready yet to be moved forward in standardisation.
This has always existed. You disclose the idea. Things that are public cannot be patented.

Put your great idea up on arxiv and it becomes prior work which the patent office can find. Or publish it in some conference. Etc. It gets officially timestamped and you're all done. You don't need any of this useless verifiable chain of communication nonsense. The world figured out how to do this centuries ago in far simpler ways.

Whether the patent office finds your prior art or not, that's a whole other question. They may still grant a patent no matter how obviously it overlaps with prior art. But then you can use your prior art when they come to try and shake you down, if it comes down to that.
You've been able to debug TypeScript (and anything else that transpiles to JS) natively in the browser for years using sourcemaps. That includes Dart, C#/F#, Go (as far as I know), and Python.

For the languages that target wasm instead, there are different debugging stories. Kotlin's is very good, Rust's is pretty immature.
Correct if I'm wrong, but this still doesn't allow us to define the dropdown content and selected content for each option separately? Maybe something like this:

<select name="commenters">
<option value="annevk">Anne van Kesteren</option>
<option value="jakearchibald">
<label>Jake Archibald</label>
<selectedcontent>
<div>
<img src="profile.avif" alt="Jake's photo">
<div>Jake Archibald<br><small>@jakearchibald</small></div>
</div>
</selectedcontent>
</option>
<option value="sorvell">Steve Orvell</option>
</select>

The value attribute would be required when using these new sub elements. This structure feels familiar and progressive to me.

Naively, I would imagine that the following JavaScript would cause 1 DOM update, 1 redraw of the option if the dropdown is open, and 1 redraw of the selected option:

document.querySelector('option:selected selectedcontent').innerHTML = 'Jake Archibald';

Obviously, things are different when using multiple. Maybe a `select > selectedcontent` element containing a copy of each `option > selectedcontent` element that is updated on change events.
It's the same situation in German except they removed the TV requirement since the broadcasters put up token online content that you can watch/read on your phone an surely everyone has one of those. So no more visits from cunts trying to get you or your co-inhabitants to admit that you have a TV because ist now a 100% mandatory fee but it's still not officially a tax though and therefore collected by a non-government entity who have had to rebrand due to how unpopular they are.
> Does this mean if I disclose an invention, that nobody can patent it after a year?

Others can. But during their application who is going to tell that there is a prior art? Patent offices only do basic checks on existing patents and not on the wider internet.

Once the others get their patent, you can appeal [1] it.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Surfingkeys https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys. I switched over from Vimium a couple years ago. I think its more performant than Vimium and also allows you quite a bit more flexibility in your configuration.

I prefer and recommend browser add-ons over Nyxt. You'll get more compatibility by being able to use Chrome/Firefox. You'll also have a much higher chance of being able to use the same environment at work - since you can typically still install browser add-ons in developer mode even if you aren't able to get rights to install apps.
Wow, so significant parts of the paper could still be LLM confabulation.
I should have referenced compiling to Wasm as well, which is what languages with very different semantics to JS (like Rust, the CLR family, and the JVM family) all do.

I really wish RISC-V had been designed in such a way that every RISC-V core must run every RISC-V binary.

However, that wouldn't mean every core must implement every possible instruction - instead, unimplemented features would be emulated. The standard would require that hardware trap everything unimplemented, and that software always contain a fallback implementation.

Then, the fragmentation problem turns from a "it won't work" problem into a "it might not be quite as fast" problem - and for general users, that effectively means everything is 100% compatible.
How about we plaster our existing area full of PV and than in 10 years we talk about space?
Better add a <optiontitle> element
Warn-to-error promotion is a good point. I kind of wish something like this would exist on the language level.

It's not even done well.

Say you're building a feature for a password manager to import passwords from firefox. You'd want the the firefox decryption functions to be available as library.

Or say you're building a tool to extract data from broken hard drives, partially recovered filesystems, etc. Again, you'd want to have this available as a library so you can import the functions you need and use them in your own tooling.

Normally you'd expect this package to primarily export a lib with a "cli" subfolder that provides a sample CLI tool that imports the lib.

The fact that this tool requires libusb which is solely needed for the useless list usb devices functionality is extremely sketchy. It makes using this tool legitimately harder and only helps attackers.
Having filed multiple patents, it does not leave a good taste in your mouth (esp software patents). You know you are bullshitting but unfortunately it needs to be done because others will do it and deny you to use the invention.
1. Decide upon a consistent logging format within the very least your application, and ideally your organization.

2. Include all the relevant context and metadata for all involved stakeholders, so properly align.

3. Use a standardized date format, we’ve all encountered our challenges with dates: what’s the format (dd/mm, mm/dd), in which timezone, and so on.

4. Make sure no sensitive data is logged, we don’t want a GDPR lawsuit hiding in the corner!

5. Be concise, vital information should be logged, but do not go over the top. You do not want to impact the performance by causing too much I/O, or making key information hard to spot.
It would be huge to actually get a real no bullshit answer from people like him.

Either he got some strategy which is smart but he can't communicate, or he tries playing a very long game, or he actually doesn't understand it and is just a normal person and normal people need experts telling them why it sounds good but is stupid or he has some VC experts telling him how to communicate to get money without a real endgoal but pivoting to something else later.
In this age of marketed Lisp-based architectures, this paper still presents one of very few accounts of powerful compilation techniques for Lisp on so-called "stock architectures," and I have received in the interim many requests for it.

Peer review and editing is done free by academics. Publishers "facilitate" this by having horrible unusable sofware platforms from the 90's for this. These are actually worse than nothing, as review would be a lot easier to organize and conduct via e-mail.

Publishers don't add value, they subtract it.

People probably have hard time undersanding this because the system is so absurd and so obvious racket they don't think such can exist.
> does typically incorporate peer review which has significant value.

Significant value which is given gratis by said peers, which journals use to boost their reputability and, by association, their profits. Publishers are profiting off of free labor from subject matter experts. Even more disappointing is this free labor is viewed as a right of passage. Don't forget that the author spent hundreds to thousands of dollars to access these unpaid peers.
Publishers are increasingly well-known as scammy. It's why MIT ended their Elsevier contract, and why many other R1s are following suit.

Also don't get me started on the dubious quality of peer review in todays "Publish or Perish" climate.

> - Why do the weird PBDKF2 derivation here? It's not based on a password the player enters, so there's nothing to "strengthen"? Seems oddly unnecessary (or I don't understand and there's a password somewhere).

If you set a master password, firefox uses that master password instead as input to PBKDF2.

What's the idea behind a satellite guided surface to air missile system? The ground station detects the target with radar, derives a set of GPS coordinates for an intercept, transmits those coordinates to the missile, and the missile guides itself to them via GPS receiver? Seems suboptimal.

At $4M per km, a 4,300 km HVDC cable would cost a staggering $17.2 billion to import 1.75 GW of energy. Interestingly, building a Shin-Kori equivalent nuclear plant [1],[2] on a nearby island [3] would be significantly cheaper. If they can afford such a cable, it raises the question of whether it's even the best solution in the first place. [4]

I'd argue that this is an artifact of history at this point. This was the popular style when unreal was made, and that's why it's there. Since Unreal is an old piece of software that powers older games, this code won't get removed. Because of compatibility.

The industry (and this includes Unreal, albeit slowly) has been moving to runtime composition for a reason: it is simpler and more flexible. And much better at modeling reality.

Your last paragraph pretty much sums it up: the main reason at this point for teaching implementation inheritance is because of legacy code bases. It can be a valid technique (I personally enjoy the Template Method Pattern, although it is today a maligned pattern) but it does causes more problems than it solves.
Fair. It disenfranchises the poor across racial boundaries.
Thanks for sharing! The Gaussian distribution never gets old. And nice plot of this:

> 100 000 points drawn from a Gaussian distribution and passed through a randomly initialized neural network.

It gives you a sense of how complex the folding of the space by NNs can be. And also the complexity of the patterns that they can pick up.
This feels like it was taken from the brave new world. Humans are already around, unless we're going to kill one off for every job replaced by an LLM, I'm not seeing how it is going to reduce environmental footprint.
It's interesting that NASA, despite working on control algorithms, apparently didn't consider using them for building a reusable rocket. (SLS isn't planned to do a propulsive landing, and neither was its predecessor Ares V.) Though they probably did use them to some extent for the "sky crane": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_crane_(landing_system)

Review: The article covers 5 models used in a RAG setup and evaluates their performance according to tutorials given by the respective platforms. The results are overall close but larger models show small improvements.
It then evaluates the models on safety categories where some models perform better than others, with one performing overall better.
The article presents it's methodology well so it felt the results are useful to understand for specific applications.
I liked the safety methods discussion. Likely an article that I'll refer to later when making architecture decisions
It's very easy to get access to arxiv.org, if you're at a university or a company doing research you'll surely have a colleague to vouch for you. Even if you're a lone wolf, just ask someone on a subject-focussed site or email a local professor.
All other modes are valid for short data.

For instance the CTR mode can be used to encrypt any number of bits, down to a single bit.

The problem of the other modes vs. ECB is that they require the generation and the transmission of an "intialization vector", i.e. either a counter value or a random number, depending on the mode, so besides the short encrypted data a longer whole block must be transmitted. This can be avoided only when a set of small data are considered as parts of a long sequence of encrypted data, so the encryption mode is not reinitialized at each new message, but the last state is remembered.

ECB is a valid encryption mode only when it is used to encrypt random numbers having the length of the block (or other kind of data for which there is a strong guarantee that there will be no repeated values). It is secure for challenge-response authentication, if the challenges are unpredictable random numbers. ECB would be a perfectly secure method for encrypting other encryption keys, which must be random, except that one might want to encrypt together with the values of the keys other data, such as identifiers or error detection codes, in which case ECB could not be used to encrypt the additional non-random data.
Obligatory if DNS validation is good enough, DANE should've been too. Yes, MITM things could potentially ensue on untrusted networks without DNSSEC, but that's perfect being the enemy of good territory IMO.

This would allow folks to have .internal with auto-discovered, decentralized, trusted PKI. It would also enable something like a DNSSEC on/off toggle switch for IoT devices to allow owners to MITM them and provide local functionality for their cloud services.

While the answer to your question is "no", there is still something you'll be able to do: to express yourself and to understand spoken language.

Like other people said here, understanding will probably still be limited, esp. in writing. But expressing even complex things becomes easier.

E.g. instead of saying "Do you have medication against migraine" at a pharmacy you could say "Do you have something for pain here" while pointing at your head.

This is what we call fluency, and starting at 800 words I would argue you have basic fluency in the language. And also regarding understanding spoken language – those words might be enough to express that you haven't understood something and ask people to simplify.

Words are not enough, though – pronunciation and grammar also play their part.
> harder to learn than other things

"harder" is relative to a reference. Even "hard" is relative.

The simple nested arithmetic code you stopped at in SICP is easy for most people working as developers. Maths from 5th year school are sufficient. Nested lists, prefix notation isn't "hard" for "most" people.

It's just lightly harder for someone who has never seen that. When they have seen XML or JSON, then it's even easier.

Actually "hard" Lisp code looks and feels different. First "harder" hurdles in Lisp are typically evaluation, recursion, macro expansion, compile-time vs. runtime, meta-notation (code as data), ...

I learned 2 years PASCAL and MODULA 2 on an Apple ][ (and i still think that was fun), before getting in contact with the Lisp alien world. I was hooked in a short time.

The academia is not the real problem. Once you pass the initial filters, you will be judged by other academics, who are usually pretty reasonable. (For every reviewer 2, there is also a reviewer 1 and a reviewer 3.) They may not always notice that things work in different ways in different fields, and they may not have enough time to evaluate you properly. But they will usually at least try to see behind the metrics.

Governments are another matter, because they lack the expertise to judge your work. Immigration officials in particular are something academics often have to deal with. For some type-2 fun, try applying for a visa that requires something beyond a PhD from a reputable university and a job offer.
This made me chuckle a bit. Here, take my upvote.
I recognize the effort. The syntax is definitely not my flavor though, all examples in Civet looked less readable than the TS/JS equivalent.

The one feature that I liked was pattern matching, but I wouldn't use such a different syntax just for that.

What I would like the most from a TypeScript superset is additional runtime features, like being able to validate if an object matches a certain type, and a more comprehensive standard library. The first one got alleviated a lot by Zod becoming a thing, and LLMs integrated into your editor being able to generate the equivalent validation code. The second one seems like it will never become part of the language itself, and it's up to runtimes to provide batteries-included APIs if they want to. Deno and Bun are definitely more inclined that way.

The devs seem pretty happy with it though, so I hope they continue hacking and building the language that they would like to use. :)
