Somewhat kinda sorta related. I have been working in React for the past 7ish years or so. I decided to try Svelte/Kit for my last project that I have been working on for a year and a half. I liked it, but didn’t think much of it.

That was until I joined a new company a few months ago that was building a NextJS app. It was amazing how overly complicated all the app code seemed to do relatively simple things. Comparing readability to my Svelte code was like me trying to read hieroglyphics.

React was amazing for complex web apps coming from JQuery. But there are other more modern and much simpler and ergonomic frameworks that have built on and learned from the past decade of React development.

Seems like the industry has a bit of Stockholm syndrome thanks to the amazing ecosystem React has…which no other front end framework comes close to IMO.

I think so, but Arm won't be what kills x86. Both AMD Strix Point and Intel Lunar Lake have great performance and battery life, to the point that at least Strix Point is actually on par with Apple's M3.

RISC-V is going to kill all other architectures in the next 10-20 years with its lack of licensing restrictions.
Buybacks are just dividends with better tax implications that somehow make people angry.

Companies historically are expected to pay dividends, at least when their business is doing well. Business at Intel was doing well for most of 1990-2017. There was some time after the Pentium 4 stopped scaling before the Pentium 4M offered a recovery, and the Itanium mess; but overall pretty good until 2017.

It is probably a lot more practical to protect Taiwan than hoping somebody may rebuild Intel for the next 5-10 years. Having TSMC production in US is also more approachable for the mid term.
Ah but have you tried the conductive touch pads on the Strega that make your body’s conductive properties a human patch cable?
"Most secure election in history" was a superlative I'm not happy with either, no. But the core of it is correct: there is no evidence of wide-spread fraud.

The core of the other side is outright lies and fraud, rooted in nothing more than one person's narcissism.

Equating these two is just bizarre. "Murder, arson, and jaywalking". Or something like that.

And "both sides will, and have, claim election fraud when they lose" is just not true. There have been a few disagreements over the decades of course, some more reasonable than others, but nothing like 2016 has happened in recent history, from either party.
Random audits can generally solve this. Take a random count from a random machine and validate that it matches the hand count. If I’m trying to rig an election I would have to be very reckless to just cross my fingers and hope that the systems I hacked aren’t audited. I’d have to bribe the auditors or something, and at that point it’s simpler to just bribe people anyway and not bother with the whole hacking part.

Poverty has indeed been decreasing most places, but your framing is very misleading. Half of the people on earth still live on less than $7/day in 2017 PPP dollars, and they are not universally connected or supercomputing. Over 8% of the global population is still below the $2.15/day PPP threshold that defines “extreme poverty”, which means it’s not enough money to purchase enough food to survive, literally still dying from starvation. Note that’s around twice the population of the US. https://blogs.worldbank.org/en/opendata/march-2023-global-po...
You don't need wheels to build cities. Sleds, ramps and endless slave labor are more than adequate.
Emacs can do that (there are a couple of add-ons that layer in inference). I believe Neovim can also.

On the commercial side IntelliJ and other JetBrains IDEs now have local-inference single-line completion model included. It won't build a project for you (incorrectly... that doesn't compile...), but will help you code faster.
I’m not saying that you can’t use another project’s name, but there already exists an actor framework named Ractor, but this one written in Ruby.

And so you can have physical buttons (left, right, up, down, enter) and a screen with a menu for all those options.
Surely none of that requires a touchscreen though? Just basic generic navigation and selection buttons will work fine.
PubSub for Golang
They've made some nasty pricing changes in the past. For example they decided on per-user pricing (based on git committers) if you used them for the very common task of deploying branch-based previews on PRs. At my last job this was a sudden increase of thousands of dollars a year for a 15 engineer team. We dropped Netlify instead.
Saying that only very few people profit from the tourists is like saying only very few people profit from the factory behind the city.
You are totally right that only few people profit but this is the case with everything unfortunately.
You mean the one that was rejected? The lawsuit was wrong legally and morally— these are people who are eligible to vote casting their vote in a more secure manner than mailing it in, and doing so prior to election day.

There's just no moral defense of rule-lawyering to throw out valid ballots or turn away voters, and judges in red and blue states alike aren't having it.

>That’s orders of magnitude more auditing than will ever be achieved by randomized barcode audits and it will catch far smaller discrepancies. Even if a machine made only one mistake ever, it would stand a chance of getting caught. Not so with barcodes.

When was the last time you had a printer print the wrong thing? Moreover, if an election is close enough that a few votes matter, there's definitely going to be a manual recount, so any advantage is purely academic (eg. knowing that candidate A won by 51.704% rather than 51.703%). Point is, either the error is big enough that it's trivially detected with spot checks, or the margins are so close that a manual recount is performed automatically.
Where do you live?

And how is this supposed to work? Like, at all? Does the urgent care place have 2FA set up for every insurance company? Just the insurance companies they accept? What about folks that don't have their phone on them (which is reasonable to forget if you need medical care urgently, even if it's not ambulance-grade urgently).

Plus, you've got the fact that the elderly are both a major market for medical services and famously techno-phobic....

Same with Bosch.

Two problems:

Buttons stopped working after warranty expired so had to pay for a service call to have it fixed. Luckily no parts were needed. I don't recall the reason right now.

It has a spinny disc, so like a potentiometer but not. It is a flat removable ring and behind it it uses a touch button of sorts

You have to pull it off amd clean it before every use for it to work and when it does work it is very fiddly to use.
Tracing Colonial Mexico with Maps and Ink (2020)
Frankly it seems like he is upset my team wasn’t prioritizing his team. He managed an upstream service that called mine, and called my service out for not meeting our availability SLO — in our case, we host applications, so degraded availability depends in part on application availability, not platform. Instead, we onboarded an entire organization, tripling our request volume and meeting a very strict latency SLO. It was much higher priority than supporting his own platform.

Since I have the option to move teams, I will probably do that to stick with my manager even if he ends up being my director anyway. I just don’t want to be leaving over a years work for which I received great praise in a position where it ends up not being appreciated by this new director.

I think the big turning point in the conversation was when I expressed doubts about staying on his team. I sensed a few sour grapes statements.

I really don’t want to deal with this fallout from the conflict between these directors. It’s unnecessary except for the fact that I now feel like I have to defend myself from this guy.

Meh, I was more or less forced to buy a USB c only pixel phone, for my headphones to work I had to buy 4 dongles in 6 months so far, one worked but had constant static noise in the background, one straight up didn't work, one died after 3 weeks, I'm now using an apple dongle which works fine excepts it only outputs 50% of the volume on android so in a lot of places it's just not loud enough

And yes I refuse to buy e waste bluetooth headphones that cost 5 times the price of wired ones, kill the battery 5 times faster and have to be trashed every other year because of glued/soldered tiny ass batteries

This was one of the first lessons I learned about good UX design and was the canonical example when discussing what Mac OS classic did right and Windows did wrong.

I think it was Norman Nielson thing or one of those old school gurus.

How are people allowed to work on UIs without learning the core syllabus? The basics of their trade? I grew up on this stuff and I'm not even a UX specialist or a UI designer.

Or are they getting overridden by bad product managers and other shitty stakeholders?
That reminds me why corporations have an easier time pruning, They're not democratic, they are basically feudal.

Like, there's a king on the top, he has his board of nobility, VP dukes, knight middle managers and the peasants who do all the work and own nothing. Whatever the king and nobility say is law, they're accountable to nobody (except for the pope/national government).
I definitely don't want my car controls tied to a phone app. No matter what I should be able to configure my car's functions long after the company stops distributing their app. But there's no reason why we can't have a "best of both worlds" sort of deal. I have a modern Mazda with a touch screen that comes with a center control knob and has physical controls for a good chunk of the settings you'd ever want to change while driving. So I don't have to go through menus to change my air conditioning from low to high, but I also don't have to use a tiny character led display and a "push 3 times, then hold for 5 seconds then pull twice and rotate 37.8 degrees" multi function button to find and access settings outside of those physical controls. In fact, the touch screen disables touch input at speed, so the control cluster MUST be able to access any functionality without relying on the touch display. It works pretty darn well. In fact the only thing I'd argue it could do better is be more responsive and have a decent set of distinct tones for navigating the screens without sight. It's not often I want a setting in the menus while driving, but it would be a lot nicer if each menu screen had a distinct set of sounds so that by ear I could know where I am and memorize those controls if I needed to.
You should check if there's a system setting to adjust the touch sensitivity, it's usually billed as a way to compensate for screen protectors but it'll probably also help with dry fingers not being detected reliably.
I like that this post only takes a few paragraphs before the nod to “father of academic racism”(1) Arthur Jensen. It seems like other IQ bloggers take more time to cultivate an air of respectability before name dropping the “concerned about race mixing” guy, but I suppose the destination of “IQ discourse” is always the same even if the route is direct or circuitous.

Not sure if this is a "thing" or if there's a problem with it, but why not live-stream video of every vote being counted so the entire population could validate at least the counting portion of voting.
SMIC will be more than happy to satisfy the demand for advanced fighter jets and cutting-edge microprocessors if Samsung and TSMC don't have enough capacity to make up for Intel's hypothetically closed fabs. If not buying from SMIC means that US AI, supercomputers, fighter jets, drones, etc., are too expensive to be competitive in countries like India, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, and the UK, until the ashes finish rising, well, probably that will suit some people just fine. Not US legislators, though.

Intel was right on their EUV assessment though and did invest early. Early EUV had terrible throughput and wasn't at all viable for mass production.

TSMC's 7nm where they jumped ahead of Intel used quad-patterning DUV which is also what Intel was trying. TSMC only started to introduce EUV at 6nm and 5nm which is when ASML had made great breakthroughs and vastly increased WPH. And even then EUV was only used sparingly at the most critical layers. Because other problems were still being solved like uptime and compatible pellicles.

If you want to blame Intel's decisions then look at their use of cobalt contacts or COAG use. They tried to do too much at 10nm when shrinks were getting harder.
MSFT published a study at least two years ago, where they (outsourced?) engineers to build a language model trained on Wikipedia and others, and then auto-read current Wikipedia pages, and performed edits to "correct" them.. with statistics on correctness and model performance.

Startled, I asked wikimedia engineers on Libera IRC about it and they refused to comment in any way, which was uncharacteristic. It appeared to be manipulative, lawyer-like you might say, on the part of MSFT because "what you gonna do?" The writeup (by outsourced engineers?) bragged of high "correction" scores as if it was a contest, in the style of other LLM papers and studies.
Tons of other countries require voter ID. You could say they’re all just being racist or whatever. But that wasn’t my point.

My point was — when it comes to challenging things you agree with, you write long explanations with nuance.

But when it’s things you disagree with, you say they’re “simply wrong”. That’s what I was getting at.

You need to have a consistent standard for discussion, and clearly the latter approach isn’t very helpful or productive.
Is there a way to import data in from a table, or would I have to manually break it up into 1kb chunk insert queries?

It doesn't require it to be a touchscreen, sure, but it practically requires it to be a screen. But I'd much rather just quickly tap a checkbox instead of press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press navigating the giant array of settings.

And then on top of that people want AA/CarPlay which is designed around touch inputs first, so you're going to have that screen be touch anyways.

None of that should really be changed by the driver when the car is in motion, and you'd have to manage the deep navigation of a bunch of button presses on a screen anyways so arguing you'd be less distracted is a moot point.
I dont mind the fact that they havent tested it with food, but I cant understand how they never recalled every single unit after noticing it for the first time.

Its like they see it, and be like "Ah, everyone who bought it got screwed over, and it will hurt our brand, but its still cheaper to quietly ignore it". Despisable
> as Rust and Python tend to obscure too many details behind high-level abstractions.

C on the other hand forces handling too many low level details for a reference implementation IMO. Rust also isn't really good in that regard.

In a reference implementation what needs to be made explicit is the logic that needs to be implemented, rather than details like memory management. For that I would prefer something like Datalog instead.

If AMD can be turned around, why can't Intel

I’m sure they “can” be. That doesn’t mean it’s a simple matter to ensure it will happen. Misdiagnose the problem, trust the wrong leadership, or fail to secure sufficient financial backing and the venture may become unsalvagable.

AMD’s return is really exceptional. It was by no means sure to work, and I don’t know if anyone knows exactly what went right that made the difference compared to countless other failed turnarounds.

Ironically, I do think widespread confidence that the situation can definitely be salvaged is a detriment. It prevents taking desperate measures, which may actually be the necessary steps.

My home page on my computer is simply a static HTML page with a table structure and then a link in each box in the table.

It is utterly trivial and totally useful.
Easier to handle edge-cases - real examples:

- What if certain rows in a table don't need to be embedded?

- What if we use a single API key for embedding database rows and user queries and it hits a rate limit - how to prioritize user queries?

- What if some rows should be vectorized using a different model, depending on an external configuration?
I like the strategy used by multi-function displays in plane cockpits. They have physical buttons along the side that can trigger different actions, labelled by text and icons on the screen alongside the button. This allows you to find and press the button even if there is turbulence or engine vibrations making it hard to use a touchscreen.

I share your feelings. I had switched to Dendrite 1 year ago and its flaws made me open my eyes to the major problems I had with the design of the protocol.

I started to worry that it would not improve and I reexamined XMPP.

Finally I switched to XMPP that I had abandoned more than 5 years ago because I think there is a better chance that the community will finally offer clients with the important features, on all platforms, in the coming year and that it will last over time.
> long after the company stops distributing their app

There is a cool idea called open source, but I suppose something as radical as giving users ownership of software for their car isn't something companies would be willing to consider. Much better when you get to charge a subscription for heated seats.
That's interesting, but obviously they meant 'in places where it has been banned a long time', there being countries where that's not the case doesn't stop it being an example of this, that terminology/marketing sticks around outliving a point it might've been making.

The EU (incl. UK at the time) banned it 2.4 decades ago.

I'm unclear if this was intended to be sarcastic, but it's certainly possible for e-readers to be more accessible than books, at least for models that actually have physical buttons (and especially considering that e-readers can have zoomable text).
I think what was more interesting to me was GnomeJS itself! I had no idea this was a thing, and it appears that they have built a few official things in Gnome using it (weather app, sound recorder app).

Very interesting!

When is it the time to talk about alternatives replacing the current apps in favor of faster apps? 10 years or rare usage? Twenty? At some point the edge cases should be covered by the scripts not by the app, only to make it slower for everyone.

I get what you're saying, but I don't care how it's called. Some things must die. Eg. Python 3 and the depreciation of was a very controversial step, but ultimately the right choice at the right time.
Actors in Rust still kind of suck because there are no first-class resume arguments. In order to provide a `&mut State` you have to either:

- handle messages sequentially per-actor (like Ractor, and like Bastion in practice)

- create your own future trait without async/await (like Actix)
