If you have cast iron and you’re having a lot of food sticking issues then you may need to reseason it. As a person that uses mostly cast iron, I prefer it, but I think it does require a bit more care.
There's nothing mercurial about firing someone over poor strategic planning. Before you hire someone, you communicate the expectations of the job, amd if an executive prioritizes quick ones over long term big wins, that is a fundamental misalignment in values - not a spur-of-the-moment dismissal.
degrowth is trendy and fashionable online in certain communities, but from what I've seen the vast majority of democrats don't agree with it, if they've even heard of it. Most of the democrats I know are big fans of solar, and would be derided online as "neoliberal" or "centrist".
I think we just have to end this, your tone is just out of control and you're doing the "assume bad faith" trick really badly. But to pick out some bits where I genuinely think you're getting confused:

> Rust has ample facilities for preventing you from reading from the buffer after cancellation

The linked bug is a race condition. It's not about "after" and if you try to reason about it like that you'll just recapitulate the mistakes. And yes, rust has facilities to prevent race conditions, but they're synchronization tools and not part of async, and lots of developers (ahem) seem not to understand the requirements.
Quite the opposite I think, some braindead bot can count that as spoofing or something.
I don't think Java finalizers should be considered in the same bucket as C++-style destructors. They are very explicitly not about RAII.

If explicit destruction is desirable, IMO the C#-style `using` pattern (try-with-resource in Java, `with` in Python etc) makes more sense than `defer` since it still forces the use of the correct cleanup code for a given type while retaining the explicitness and allowing linters to detect missing calls (because destructability is baked into the type). `defer` is unnecessarily generic here IMO.

In JS, you still end up having to write try/finally for anything that needs explicit resource management, so I don't think it's a good example. They are adding `using`, though, and TS already provides it.

Booting natively means you need real drivers, which don't exist for Windows on Mac as well as for macOS on PC. It'd be useless. Just use the VM, it's good.

And it's not the same - running Windows natively on Mac would seriously degrade the Mac, while running macOS on a PC has no reason to make it worse than with Windows. Why not buy a PC laptop at that point? The close hardware/OS integration is the whole point of the product. Putting Windows into a VM lets you use best of both.

This is just running defense for the reality distortion field.

> I know plenty of "lazy fuck" people not yet using LLMs. Having it built in to the device is likely to change that.

Sorry I just don't live in this world. Everybody and their dog uses LLM. Especially the professional crowd affluent enough to afford Apple devices. The untapped market here is tiny.

I use an iPhone, a MacBook, I use a HomePod as part of a home automation system. I'm not an anti Apple fanboy. This shit is completely stupid and underwhelming.

> That's fairly standard for ads.

Now you're just being a condescending prat. I don't need a lesson in the obvious. I told you it's stupid for specific reasons that you simply care to not acknowledge, fine. Think whatever you want, you obviously love these ads. Great.

And since when was, other things are shitty too so this must be good even a worthwhile observation?

> Prepared food is sold on a "because you can't cook, obviously"

But, if you could actually cook that particular day, you wouldn't be using the prepared food. (Whether you can cook any day or not is another thing). As someone who cooks regularly, neither prepared food nor McDonalds are beneath me.
On the otherhand, you obviously could easily be using an LLM for the last two years to write emails. So this is dumb.
As a dad, I'm ok with "dads are stupid" tropes if there are other redeeming qualities. Your Apple ads have none.

I can relate with someone that can't cook. All I want to do with that Walter is punch him in the face. And, no, the knowing acknowledgement from token Asian doesn't improve things.

My prediction, like the Google ad, that ad is going to tank like the turd it is.

Depends. I used to offload almost all compilation tasks, but now I only really do this if it's especially large. If I want to update my NixOS configuration I don't bother offloading it anymore. (NixOS isn't exactly Gentoo or anything, but I do have some overrides that necessitate a decent amount of compilation, mainly dogfooding my merge requests before they get merged/released.)

YMMV.

The dichotomy is pretty interesting to me, given that most major cities in the country have been running high-publicity programs for the last decade to do everything possible to reduce car-related deaths, especially protecting pedestrians and bicyclists. (Cities like NYC and Seattle call it "vision zero", a vision of zero serious traffic injuries/deaths). They work to separate pedestrians and bicyclists from traffic, slow cars down with "traffic calming measures", lower speed limits, and so on.

Those stated goals seem, to me, to clash with the idea of now making it up to people's discretion to cross roads wherever and whenever they want, rather than at dedicated, marked, predictable, traffic crossings equipped with signal lights that tell cars and pedestrians who has the right of way.

I'm curious in X years if the data will or will not show more pedestrians got hit by cars following this change.

Yeah I know, but you should never let the facts get in the way of a good story. (And to be fair, all the heavy elements came from the sun (or other suns) to begin with :)

More seriously, solar is the closest we'll ever get to fusion power. Assuming we ever get the tech right, it'll simply be too expensive to roll out significant amounts of fusion production. It would require capital that will always give a better return elsewhere.

To put it another way, would you rather invest $100 billion in a fusion plant, that'll take 5 years to get permitted and 5 years to build, and require staffing by well trained expensive staff, or spend $10 billion on a solar farm in Africa selling electricity to the US at night which can be up and running in 2 years?

Would you be happy to commit your 100 billion today betting that when it comes online 10 to 15 years from now it'll make energy at prices comparable to the solar and storage tech available then?

Fusion may indeed be the future. But who's gonna spend the capital to find out?
What's the alternative? Stand-your-ground laws but for the right to get to Starbucks 10 seconds faster?
and the separation has to be realistic.

if you have businesses and residences fronting onto opposite sides of a high speed road and the nearest legal crossing is a half mile away, that's not realistic. almost nobody will decide "hey let me add a whole mile of walking to my journey and a few minutes at a signal to cross safely."
I don't think Rust is anywhere near as complex as C++.

I agree that it seems like the team has an appetite for change that's larger than I personally would agree is appropriate. We'll see what they end up shipping.

Event with MV3 you still have access to `chrome.webRequest.onBeforeRequest` and content scripts, so this particular issue won't be 100% solved.

I don't think the solution is technical. The solution would be a strict policy, and nuke every extension and publisher from the store who even hints at doing this kind of BS.
My feeling was that this rewrite is not actually "done". Sure, all their C++ has been converted to Rust, but it seems like there's a lot of unsafe that they could rewrite in safe Rust.

And for the C libraries they vendor in, assuming none of them are exposed directly in their public API, it's likely they can replace them with Rust libraries with equivalent behavior. mbedtls seems like a good example of that; certainly it wouldn't be a small effort to switch to rustls, but it might be worth it to do so. And even if they didn't choose to do that, I just did a quick search on crates.io, and it looks like there are safe wrappers for mbedtls.

True, hence we did not transform, but replace the quantifier. The original statement "all people are not trained" was false and we wanted to make a true statement. There are people who are trained, thus we say "there exist people who are not trained", which allows us to say "there exist people who are trained". Of course, this is not an equivalent statement to the original statement.

I find it hard to believe you can flip enough burgers to pay that mortgage and still survive. Not many fast food places will pay over 30 hours a week to burger flippers. Managers yes. You would barely survive.
"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it."

You have an entire commercial banking industry that has been dependent on being able to capture inexpensive deposits from unsophisticated financial services consumers (they make the spread between the ~0% they offer on demand deposits and what they can lend at), as well as charging exorbitant fees to move value around, and that is all coming to an end with open banking and FedNow instant payments. Sad folks gonna sad. You're a utility, sorry to say.

> Are these CEOs really so irreplaceable that when they bet incorrectly they can't be replaced?

That’s the thing though, another comment nailed this perfectly. If they made a +EV decision to hire more people, but the preverbal roulette wheel landed on 00, maybe it’s not a bad bet that they should be fired for.
That seems unlikely given the mismatched memory speed (see the parent comment) and the fact that Apple uses LPDDR which is typically 16 bits per channel. 8800MT/s seems to be a number pulled out of thin air or bad arithmetic.

While I would prefer to have a large and HiDPI display in the future, unscaled 4k was more economical and has fringe benefits of not needing special setup/handling. I lost $5-6k with my failed Dell and am hesitant to spend a lot again since it was supposed to be a decade purchase.

Thinking back the only other monitor I've ever lost was a Dell as well.. including 30 years of CRTs and CCFL LCDs never had any issues with other brands :(
Given how simple the computer is, I very much doubt it. If anything, it might have a very simple xor encryption or just a passphrase. If anyone were sufficently motivated, it probably would be trivial to snoop on the DSN transmissions and crack any authentication. I'm sure it'd be susceptible to a simple replay attack at any rate

The problem is simply that you need a huge transmitter with (AIUI) some special and unique modulation hardware. Also there's nothing to be gained from interfering with the Voyagers. Really the only practical thing you could do is shut them down a couple of years before they die anyway. There's just no point.

Part the problem is ABI. Fibers are a more sensible approach to async, but as soon as you introduce them, FFI becomes a massive pain (see e.g. Go) in any environment which doesn't have fibers as a first-class primitive that everybody supports.

Promise-based async has the advantage that you can desugar it down to C-compatible ABI.
I freely admit I’m frustrated by the discourse around async Rust! I’m also very frustrated because I feel I was iced out of the project for petty reasons to do with whom I’m friends with and the people who were supposed to take over my work have done a very poor job, hence the failure to ship much of value to users. What we shipped in 2019 was an MVP that was intended to be followed by several improvements in quick succession, which the Rust project is only now moving toward delivering. I’ve written about this extensively.

My opinion is that async Rust is an incredible achievement, primarily not mine (among the people who deserve more credit than me are Alex Crichton, Carl Lerche, and Aaron Turon). My only really significant contributions were making it safe to use references in an async function and documenting how to interface with completion based APIs like io-uring correctly. So it is very frustrating to see the discourse focused on inaccurate statements about async Rust which I believe is the best system for async IO in any language and which just needs to be finished.

> I would ask if society gets more good out of transferring the wealth to crypto-bro's or from it sitting in relatively low yield investment vehicles?

I think rewarding people for dumping useful labor into a black hole is bad, yeah. If we're just handing it out, we could've split all that money to everyone equally and reaped much better rewards as a society (useful social services; more family stability; less poverty) than giving a few gambling addicts overpriced cars in return for nothing.
If France, the law states that a pedestrians should use designated crossing points if one is available within 50 meters. Crossing at a red light is also illegal.

It is punishable with a 4€ fixed fine. I don't know of any lesser punishable crime and it is rarely enforced in practice despite jaywalking being common. But it is still a crime.

I'm 100% with you here (see my comment above about fusion economics.)

But solar doesn't have to be local. Upgrading the grid to move large volumes of electricity from mid to high latitudes changes your equation somewhat.

> has argued endlessly with those who don't like the tradeoffs but only have a surface level understanding of the problem

But that's really not what's going on here.

ajross has an understanding of the fundamentals of async that is different to withoutboats'. ajross is setting this out in a clear and polite way that seems to be totally in good faith.

withoutboats is responding in an extremely rude and insulting manner. Regardless of whether they are right or not (and given their background they probably are), they are absolutely in the wrong to adopt this tone.
Only in this hyper-partisan world has politics become a liability for business. If a restaurant hosted a candidate it didn't get death threats and calls for boycott 20 years ago. It's hard for some retail businesses to stay out of politics because they get dragged into it. Perhaps another way of looking at it is to not take too seriously when businesses get involved in politics.

Alternatively there's a problem with being "really in the weeds" of any problem in that you fail to poke your head up to understand other paradigms and how they interact.

I live in very different weeds, and I read the linked article and went "Oh, yeah, duh, it's racing on the io-uring buffer". And tried to explain that as a paradigm collision (because it is). And I guess that tries the patience of people who think hard about async[1] but never about concurrency and parallelism.

> Would the CEO resigning or getting laid off, make your situation any better if you were one of those laid off?

No, of course not. But he is the leader, and he guided the company to a point where certain areas became "over-invested or under-performing." In other words, he didn’t do a good job. So, it should be him stepping down. Nobody ever said being a CEO would be easy.
It’s divisive to not want loaded language that is almost exclusively used by anti-abortion advocates rather than the general terminology?

I still use Ivy Bridge and Haswell workstations (with Linux, SSD and discrete GPU) as my daily drivers and for the things I do they still feel fast. Honestly a new Celeron probably beats them performance wise.

The modern AMD or Intel desktops I've tried obviously are much faster when performing large builds and such but for general computing, web browsing, and so forth I literally don't feel much of a difference. Now for mobile devices it's a different story due to the increased efficiency and hence battery life.

What I love about electric is that there is normally no transmission. Automakers realized it was cheaper and simpler to simply ditch the transmission in favor of a stronger motor.

Really depends how much money you want to spend and if you're willing to wait a bit longer for Starship orbital refueling to be tested.
