Be aware that this is Microsoft/FAANG camp echo chamberly discussion lacking self criticism, very shallow and "safe" (pun intended) chain of though that sums up to basically here we are maintaining stuff for Microsoft, only mentioning c++ and rust, C# and Carbon.

In similar vein, just so happens that yesterday I listened to discussion to folks outside of bigtech camp and it was much more insightful and introspective, although it is with creator of Zig and Odin language themselves instead of mere evangelists and methodologist book sellers.

> Any similarities between them may be nothing more than incidental.

Due to the 1970's fuel crisis, the Federal government flexed it's power and threatened to withhold money from states if they did not adopt Right Turn On Red (RTOR), thus it seems that the commonality between states with respect to RTOR might be more than incidental.

I don't see it as genius.

I see it as someone willing to game the system, and who likely believes the entire system is rigged, so anything goes to get ahead.

In your case, the system wasn't rigged, which means the candidate started by distrusting you.

If that's the type of person you want working with you, then go ahead.

Were the system actually rigged, then I might have a different answer.

Here's a meta analysis from 2023 about the effectiveness of the vaccine with around ~3 million subjects from the different studies: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/immunology/articles/10....

A meta analysis about the vaccines' safety record with around ~99 million subjects over different analysed studies: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0264410X2...

The conclusion from the article you shared also says the resulting myocarditis doesn't seem to be alarming:

> mRNA-1273 vaccine-associated myocardial injury was more common than previously thought, being mild and transient

More common than previously thought doesn't equate to your claim of "myocarditis through the roof".

As much as I liked to watch Dr. John Campbell in the beginning of the pandemic I verge on trusting more meta analysis covering dozens to hundreds of studies than a single person reviewing a few studies. If a slight increase in transient myocarditis gives me a huge boost in immune response against COVID I will take the transient myocarditis 100% of the time (which I had as a side-effect of the vaccine, got no complications from that after being assessed).

Yes. It's kind of an odd situation, because it's one where it's a benefit to me if other people are running anti-cheat.

Depends on the job. Were this a cybersecurity redteamer I'd commend their ability to think out of the box.

It's not clear what problem you have with that comparison. It's a classical example of just how weak gravity is compared to the electromagnetic interaction. A whole planet's worth of mass is weaker than the EM field generated by a tiny magnet. And the strong and weak nuclear interactions are even stronger still.
> Google codebase is arguably one of the most curated, and iterated on datasets in existence

I spent 12 years of my career in the Google codebase.

This assertion is technically correct in that google3 has been around for 20 years, and all code gets reviewed, but the implication that Google's codebase is a high-quality training set is not consistent with my experience.
I'm not complaining, I'm just saying that the higher numbers of that benchmark result do not translate directly to better performance for all software you run. Deep learning as it is right now is probably the main application that benefits from this extension (and probably the reason why it was added in hardware at this point in time).
Rust isn't complex, low level and systems level concepts are complicated. Rust does a fantastic job at exposing you to the lower level with a very articulate syntax and philosophy of how to handle things in a fast and safe way.
It kind of does though, because it means you can never trust the output to be correct. The error is a much bigger deal than it being correct in a specific case.

10 years ago, Intellij, 1 IDE to rule them all they said. There are 14-15 at my last count. Complete cash job.

Bugs I reported went unanswered for 3 years and then swept under the carpet, still not fixed. Obvious stuff too. Breaking and annoying stuff.

The best part was when they came out and claimed they had the best latency to screen rendering, long article explaining the technology etc. behind it. Mac just came out with retina screen, and their stuff is written in Java, did not handle any kind of graphics acceleration. It was a complete joke, just pressing 'aaaaaaaaaaa' on the keyboard would start lagging after 10 characters to seconds long to render. Insanely funny stuff. If you shrank the IDE to 1/4 of the screen it was much faster! yay.

I stopped paying a little while back and jumped on the community edition for debugging and other IDEs to write the code. I'm sick of their antics.

One way it's a disaster is that file names (on Linux at least, haven't used Windows in a long time) are byte strings that can contain directory paths from different/multiple file systems.

So if you have non-ASCII characters in your paths, encoding/decoding is guesswork, and at worst, differs from path segment to path segment, and there's no metadata attached which encoding to use.

That's not a steam game, that's a user mod (read: random binary downloaded from the internet and executed). Also, it doesn't need kernel level access to do any of that stuff, it can get by just fine with normal application level permissions.

And that'd totally break down as soon as some underlying class does something you didn't expect. C++ RAII patterns and Rust's ownership systems are required for a very good reason (that the GC sidesteps but also makes all code dependent of), the NVec further up in the thread works because it's an explicit abstraction.
Are these Apple refurbished, or bought from a third party like Best Buy or Amazon? I’ve bought plenty of Apple refurbished products (directly from Apple) over the years and they always look like new (including 100% battery health).

Looks like a lot of work, basically it's the unsupported bsp pieces on all the different physical platforms, on Ubuntu.

This is a very thankless task if the board vendors (who will have access to Rockchip support) won't help either.

When there are a lot of different platforms, it's very easy to get your energy drained simply by an endless parade of small things, without getting to the point of completely solving anything. And there is no payoff since the vendors and rockchip lock up any profit.

Either Nvidia has to open up CUDA to third party providers, or someone (OpenCL?) has to finally manage to create a high level cross hardware abstraction that has all the features of CUDA, can match CUDAs performance on Nvidia hardware and is as easy to use as CUDA.

No it's true.

I think this add is targeted at the people being dup'd in the ads.

People associate the younger generation as a little bit weird and head of the curve wrt technology, and this Actor being younger and visibly a bit weird re-enforces that connection.

This ad is saying, buy this new technology or you'll be getting dup'd too.
Right. That's policy routing. You can talk to an ISP, have a cable installed and a peering session, gain trust, offer cheap or free traffic delivery, and then publish a route via that session. Your trusting peer may/will then send traffic to that route via you.

This happens legitimately, e.g. when an end-user becomes multihomed or starts using anycast, so the trusting peer can't necessarily discover this algorithmically. Route signing helps.

I thought so too... that was 13 months ago.

I still am okay, but only by pure blind luck. And okay in a "rice and beans diet" way. The actual interview gauntlets are worse than my first job search.

And yes, luck = preparation x opportunity. But I was literally cold called by a founder. My experience spoke for itself, but it only helped me tread water instead of sink into the abyss. Sure didn't work the other hundreds of times I kept searching.

Assumptions are horrible on the internet because it only enrages those who do not fit your strawman. I did everything "right" and I end up laid off twice, draining all my savings and a bit of my stock, and being gaslighted for over a year when I could grab multiple offers in 3-4 months the last few job hunts.

I work in games, I'm not making 500k salaries and was well prepared for layoffs. but I was doing very well for myself. So it's tiring hearing people deride my decade of experience with "well maybe you weren't actually a good worker". I'm definitely not a 10x-er, never have been. But it's backwards hat I have more experience now and am desired less for my experience.

It's just bad times. The sooner we can accept that, the easier it'll be to come together and weather the storm. But with layoffs it seems like all the elitism comes out instead.
Expected a safety fight. The talk didn't deliver :(
> analogous conformance test suites exist and are run automatically

I'm not clear on how this is even possible. "Conformance" for C++ means adherence to the published ISO/IEC 14882 standard. In the case of Rust, it's "this is what the compiler does this week". Sure, a third party has built out a CI system for Rust and uses it provide evidence that Rust does what Rust does, but that's nothing similar to having evidence any random toolchain conforms to an accepted, published, international standard of what the C++ language does.

When it comes to providing test evidence for functional safety (for example ISO 26262 or IEC 61508) I can point to Perennial or Sold Sands results and say with confidence that my toolchain does what it says on the C++ box. When it comes to Rust, I can point to Ferrous and say "the core Rust language when built using rustc does what the rustc developers claimed it should do last week, excluding any crates or libraries." To which claim are you going to trust the lives of you and your loved ones?

They aren't analogous at all. There is just reams of marketing spin here and eventually it's going to kill someone.

Thanks for feedback, I fixed it.
Yeah. It's a mixed bag for sure. However, the situation on the ground, where I am, looks like it's becoming a semi-mainstream platform.
From Wikipedia's entry on George Santos:

"Santos ran as a Republican for the United States House of Representatives in New York's 3rd congressional district, against Democratic incumbent Tom Suozzi, launching his campaign in November 2019.[24] Normally, the Nassau County Republican Committee, known for the tight control that its leadership exercises over often competitive races for its nominations, would have discouraged an unknown candidate with such minimal experience. However, Suozzi was expected to win the race easily, and no other candidates had put their names forward."

If you otherwise meet the requirements for the seat--citizen (usually), resident , not a felon--you too can find a ballot line for a contest a party expects to lose.

I should add that I have no idea whether Santos actually was on the primary ballots.

I wanted to use ZFS badly, but of course all data must be encrypted. It was surprising to see how usage gets much more complicated than expected and so many people just don’t encrypt their data because things get wild then.

Look, even Proxmox, which I totally expected to support encryption with default installation (it has „Enterprise“ on the website) does loose important features when trying to use with encryption.

Also please study the issue tracker, there are a few surprising things I would not have expected to exist in a productive file system.

I used Emacs from 2012-2018.

I originally started using Emacs because its haskell-mode and erlang-mode beat anything out there. (I stayed for a lot of other things, too.)

I stopped using Emacs because of its poor LSP support. VSCode's Haskell LSP was better.

I briefly tried to reboot using Doom Emacs for Rust development this year, but the LSP support was still quite terrible.

There are reasons to stop using something after 10 years.

(Also, I've been using Vim on the side 1997-now. It never dies, but I never turned it into an IDE.)
I’ve been using Colima to host docker containers and VSCode with devcontainers to do something similar. Being able to spin up a full stack environment on the fly for working is amazing. It may not be as fast as Zed, but it’s a well thought out workflow that’s very reproducible. It’s been a quick workflow to start using, but is still quite flexible.

Regardless of which stack you use, I think this is a great style of working. When you have a reproducible dev environment, everything is so much easier. (As vagrant users will probably attest to - it’s not a new method).

But having this feature of SSH remoting is also quite handy without the dev environment stack stuff. I also find it quite nice to work with a local client, but remote SSH environment when I’m doing data work (large genomic data files). In this case, instead of reproducibly, the main benefit is data locality. If my large dataset is on a different server, it’s far more convenient to write the analysis code on that remote server. This new Zed feature seems like it will also support this workflow, which is also a win in my book.
