To be fair to Republicans, we definitely didn't learn about this today. They've been consistently pushing this issue over the last eight years (build the wall) and crafted a narrative that the Democratic party did absolutely nothing to get ahead of. And it turns out the minority voters that the Democrats rely on, many who came here legally as immigrants, don't like illegal immigrants "cutting the line", regardless of how true any of it is.

A great example is the viral marketing Republicans did where they went house to house in largely blue towns asking when they'd like their shipment of an illegal family to house.
That link rather misses the problem in only considering the total population. The graphs under https://www.population-trends-asiapacific.org/data/JPN give a more nuanced view of the problem; graph 5 shows that the proportion of the population that is past child-bearing age is steadily increasing. In 1990 the 0-14 and 65+ age groups were equally large, today 65+ is three times larger. In essence the increase in longevity is somewhat masking the decline of the young.

How so?

Tuples are awkward with immutability, if you put mutable things inside them.

The payload is so big it will be a pretty dramatic phase transition for almost everything space related, assuming theres not some horrible flaw hidden away somewhere.

Quite bizarre how some people genuinely think he's just some guy who allocates capital. Or rich dad or whatever. I guess his dad was probably rich but that's clearly not enough.
Start with the big 4 or 5 and add more in there as and when they become problematic. Who decides which one? Some agency.

I think the real solution is banning under 18s from having smart phones period.
Non-CPython implementations may pass by value as an optimization for certain immutable builtin types. This is visible to code using `is`.

(It's surprisingly difficult to implement a rigorous way to detect this vs compile-time constant evaluation though; note that identical objects of certain types are pooled already when generating/loading bytecode files. I don't think any current implementation is smart enough to optimize the following though)

$ python3 -c 'o = object(); print(id(o) is id(o))'
False
$ pypy3 -c 'o = object(); print(id(o) is id(o))'
True
$ jython -c 'o = object(); print(id(o) is id(o))'
True
Ohh, nice! I adore games, especially ones for winning money. Low wagering bonuses are tough to find, but https://casinohex.jp/casino-bonuses/low-wagering/ lays out the best ones. None of that crazy wagering nonsense that takes forever to clear. It’s about time there’s a site that actually lists bonuses that don’t feel like a trick.
It has been a whole campaign based on the needs of the 0.whatever% part of the population, I’ve always been a respectful member of society thinking that lgbt people have the rights to be whatever they want and everyone has the right to define himself, I’ve been even to a gay pride, but now they’ve broken my balls, a bunch of people can’t just monopolize the debate for everyone
What's your definition of real cloud?

And can you name a real cloud that charges a half-reasonable price for bandwidth? I consider $10/TB to be half-reasonable.
The idea that the Supreme Court can overturn the 22nd amendment is in the realm of a conspiracy theory, in my opinion.
Cant use bun to deploy CDK, CDK fails as it looks for package-lock yarn-lock or pnpm’s exclusively

but if you add cdk to the path, you can still deploy, its just that your cicd and deployment scripts are not all using bun anymore
The 50% voting for Trump aren't all stupid. Though many are indoctrinated, taught to embrace confirmation bias, the bandwagon effect, and to fear the other.

IME they're a diverse group who all bought some just-so stories explaining why life was so much better 4yo. Rose tinted glasses and a repeated call to look to the past to some idealized time that never existed.

All that reinforced by a lot of loud distractions to avoid the awkward fact that the pandemic was a disaster, the tax cuts ballooned the deficit more than Biden, benefited mostly the rich, insiders lining their pockets, racking up pardons, and foreign policy that was openly corrupt.
Absolutely. I think this is a reasonable take. I think I knew America was already capable of it and it was a matter of when, not if, something bad would happen. But we’re certainly past the threshold now.

For what it’s worth, I have a feeling Canada will elect a questionable conservative next year as well. North America is trending this way. Young men are more conservative than I’ve seen in my lifetime. Things are getting worse in various ways. People are going to vote for a significant change, I think. No other party offers anything of the sort.
I took a phone selfie against a white wall and it was accepted fine.
In your fictional utopia, you would need practically every single company in the world to agree to pay labor in excess of the rate dictated by market forces. Any company that deviates from that would have a considerable competitive advantage and quickly usurp its market. This is so categorically obvious that I hesitate to call it economics. It's not even just human nature. This is so self-evident that it may very well be a bedrock principle of sentience.
Considering that all of Scott's quoted sources are American, I wouldn't be surprised if your country doesn't have the same issue. I assure you that a lot of American institutions take the Social Model of Disability literally while claiming to use a multifactorial model.

>It’s a feature, not a bug, of capitalism.

It's not a feature of capitalism - we've had capitalism without sending manufacturing overseas for decades. Rather, it's a feature of globalization, which is a tactic that isn't specific to capitalism.
Unfortunately it looks like they will again use a very outdated SoC, likely one that doesn't even match a several years old Steam Deck. Probably an 8nm chip, based on Nvidia's outdated Ampere architecture. See e.g. here https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeaksAndRumours/comments/1fjy...

Which would mean the SoC is even more outdated than the Switch 1 SoC was at launch. Reason is probably that Nintendo originally wanted to release the new hardware significantly earlier.

I really don't understand why they are planning those chips apparently many years in advance, when some other manufacturer (AMD, Qualcomm, Intel, MediaTek) could have supplied a more modern SoC without many modifications in a relatively short timeframe at a better price than Nvidia.

This would have made backwards compatibility more difficult, but I don't think this is that big of an issue anyway. Nintendo often didn't have it in the past, and few people complained. After all, old games can still be played on the old hardware.
Natural rights. Clearly. The Constitution doesn't grant rights, it limits abrogation of certain rights. The right to travel is long established in common law.
I imagine the definition of "upgrade" depends on the needs of the customer. The merchant of the license is inherently unable to evaluate this. Installing software without explicit consent, especially not-functionally-equivalent-software, is inherently wrong.
It doesn’t feel like a scam. It IS a scam. You were able to get a 3 year valid one but now they reduced it to 1 year. If my permit is valid for 10 years, so should the IDP. But then it’d cost x10 if they were to keep the same profit. So suddenly asking for close to $200 will feel outrageous. Just shows how corruption can be worse than a monetary loss.
Not really. A lot of tooling, JSON for example, naturally works with dictionaries. A TypedDict naturally connects with all those tools. In contrast, dataclasses are hostile to the enormous ecosystem of tools that work with dictionaries.

If you store all your data is dataclasses, you end-up having to either convert back to dictionaries or having to rebuild all that tooling. Python's abstract syntax trees are an example. If nodes had been represented with native dictionaries, then pprint would work right out the box. But with every node being its own class, a custom pretty printer is needed.

Dataclasses are cool but people should have a strong preference for Python's native types: list, tuple, dict, and set. Those work with just about everything. In contrast, a new dataclass is opaque and doesn't work with any existing tooling.
A good start would be looking at 3) more closely

> Trump supporters support such statements from trump

Did you ever meet a Trump supporter who used bleach? Did you ever meet a Trump supporter who thinks bleach for covid is a good idea?

If you're being honest with yourself, can you even imagine a middle-aged man drinking bleach to get rid of covid?

almost everyone I know voted for Trump, I know a lot of people, none of them ever drank bleach (as I'm writing this, I remembered I know someone who drank bleach as a little kid and had to go to the hospital, my point stands though)
In my area, restaurant food prices are going up and up - not 5,10 percent, but 50% range or more. What cost me $10 last year, cost me 13, 15$ now or more.

I dunno if this is price gouging or restaurants genuinely are paying more for their supplies. End result is the same, I am paying more if I eat out.

Yes, this is anecdotal. Yes I know I should probably eat at home. I’m just saying this to show that stock markets, GDP etc doesn’t matter if people are stressed while buying groceries or having a meal at a local restaurant. None of the fancy infographics matters if I am starving
Have you looked into tools https://www.multion.ai or https://www.browserbase.com.
"Are you male and the wrong job or you might like other men? Much less good. "

Could you explain what you're talking about here? "It sucks to be poor", that makes sense. But being gay doesn't matter imo and I fail to see how other (western) countries are much different.

I generally have similar feelings about your other points, but don't have personal experience there.
> ByteDance can't sell advertising in Canada.

I'm not sure I follow (maybe there's other details you know about that aren't in the article, or I missed it). I don't think there's anything preventing a Canadian company from paying a foreign company for ads? In theory I'd have to self-assess PST maybe but I order stuff (both physical and digital) from foreign companies with no Canadian presence on a pretty regular basis.
I've been building and using these tools for well more than a year now, so here's my journey on building and using them (ORDER BY DESC datetime).

(1) My view now (Nov 2024) is that code building is very conversational and iterative. You need to be able to tweak aspects of generated code by talking to the LLM. For example: "Can you use a params object instead of individual parameters in addToCart?". You also need the ability to sync generated code into your project, run it, and pipe any errors back into the model for refinement. So basically, a very incremental approach to writing it.

For this I made a Chrome plugin, which allowed ChatGPT and Claude to edit source code (using Chrome's File System APIs). You can see a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHzqlI6LLp8

The code is here, but its WIP and for very early users; so please don't give negative reviews yet: https://github.com/codespin-ai/codespin-chrome-extension

(2) Earlier this year, I thought I should build a VS Code plugin. It actually works quite well, allows you to edit code without leaving VSCode. It does stuff like adding dependencies, model selection, prompt histories, sharing git diffs etc. Towards the end, I was convinced that edits need to be conversations, and hence I don't use it as much these days.

Link: https://github.com/codespin-ai/codespin-vscode-extension

(3) Prior to that (2023), I built this same thing in CLI. The idea was that you'd include prompt files in your project, and say something like `my-magical-tool gen prompt.md`. Code would be mostly written as markdown prompt files, and almost never edited directly. In the end, I felt that some form of IDE integration is required - which led to the VSCode extension above.

Link: https://github.com/codespin-ai/codespin

All of these tools were primarily built with AI. So these are not hypotheticals. In addition, I've built half a dozen projects with it; some of it code running in production and hobby stuff like webjsx.org.

Basically, my takeaway is this: code editing is conversational. You need to design a project to be AI-friendly, which means smaller, modular code which can be easily understood by LLMs. Also, my way of using AI is not auto-complete based; I prefer generating from higher level inputs spanning multiple files.
Code ownership is a scam
Project 2025 Plan for Trump Presidency Has Far-Reaching Threats to Science
Online PvP games absolutely have pacing. Back then it was just about the skill ceiling and learning curve. In today's gaming era it's also matchmaking ranks and rewards and battlepass content. I do miss the days when you could buy a big budget multiplayer game and always jump in with all the tools pro players had. But it sounds like he had several complaints with the game dumbing down the skill ceiling (e.g. sniper bunny hopping) and bugs that let a novice player wipe the enemy team. A well paced multiplayer game has techniques that seem feasible to master but require a good amount of practice. A bad one only lets the top 1% of players achieve those skills after thousands of hours, or doesn't have such techniques at all.
Not disagreeing, but if diesel tax is per gallon and cargo trucks have a worse mpg (looks like 7.2 is considered the average?) then they are paying more per mile in tax, possibly 2-4x more than a car (15-30 mpg)
Groceries are simply an example. There's a metric called the PPP: Purchasing Power Parity. It is possible in a short period of high inflation for goods and services to outpace wage growth. So, despite wage gains, the PPP of the median American may be lower in 2024 compared to 2019. People are going to feel that as an affordability crunch.

That’s…not a moat. Here, I’ll let chatgpt tell you:

True moats often involve factors like network effects, brand strength, intellectual property, or significant operational efficiencies that are harder to replicate.

Superman doesn’t have a competitive moat, even if he manages to be the strongest and produce random powers out of nowhere - other superheroes pop up and monopolize various cities despite being nowhere near as powerful. Why? They are the recognizable local brand. That’s a moat. It’s not something Superman can easily do anything about. Heck, Superman’s strength even makes him unrelatable to most humans, actively harming him in the brand area.
Wonder if you'll regret your vote when we find ourselves headed more than ever towards a true fascist dictatorship.
€200 billion is the US defense budget for 3 months (the budget is about $900 billion annually). So I don't think it's as big a number as it seems.

AFPS is more complex yes, and it's sad they let down Time Machine (somewhat) with it, considering the capabilities.
But that's pretty much on point with current Apple, they would rather have you pay for iCloud "backup" than make an individual/personal solution that doesn't require subscription to their services.

It's a bit sad because the whole point of Apple was, "we are not IBM" after the PC got its start. They are very much IBM now.

As for ZFS, it has its use for sure (servers) but it's very heavy on ressource and very complex. I don't think it's just because of the buyout of Sun, overall, it's just overkill for a personal computer; and since Apple completely left the server market, even for SMBs, there is no real reason to push for it.

In the end it's not really about any filesystem, the problem is mostly that Apple is not a user focused company as much as it used to be. They could make better technical UI/Apps/Solutions but they don't care that much, they make too much money selling gadgets (those are good but really not the same thing as "proper" computers).

> though for large files I'd imagine it could be slow as it will need to iterate through all records to determine the offset for records at the end of the file.

Yeah, it's not doing lazy evaluation, so you need to watch out. It's probably not the solution you want for (for example) looking at 500GB disk images.

You get that in a multiparty system. When it’s just two, doing something relatively out of the box like proposing a 4 day work week is essentially rocking the boat.
Expert systems did catch on and do see widespread use - they're just not called AI anymore. It's 'business logic' or 'rules engine' now.

The issue with SVMs is that they get intractably expensive for large datasets. The cost of training a neural network scales linearly with dataset size, while the kernel trick for SVMs scales with dataset size squared. You could never create an LLM-sized SVM.
This problem was solved at least as far back as ancient Rome. The solution was and is the secret ballot. If nobody gets to see your ballot before it goes into the box, and if it can't be tied back to you, nobody can hold you to a vote. Thus, even if someone threatens your life, bribes you, etc, the secret ballot preserves your ability to vote your conscience.

Remember people, it's not fascism if no one is allowed to call it that.
Yeah.

If I ever raised a family [0], I would very, very strongly prefer them to live in a reasonably-sized condo or apartment in a big city, rather than in the suburbs or in the sticks. There's more to do, better and more diverse food, a far more diverse set of people (and ideologies) to meet, and the environmental impact of one's consumption is much, much smaller per-capita than living outside of the city. [1]

It's to city managers' great discredit that they don't prioritize making it reasonably possible for families to have a decent quality of living within the cities that they manage. (If they did this, one would expect the quality of living for every ordinary person in the city to inevitably become substantially better.)

[0] And I will not, because I would be an absolutely terrible parent.

[1] Or, that was the case prior to the collapse of shopping in many big cities. Now, I guess many folks get stuff shipped direct to them, just as if they were living in the middle of nowhere.
>the musicians equivalent of a paid internship and pays better than most entry level jobs

what entry level jobs are you talking about? The horribly low Federal minimum wage is $7.25. minumum wage part time would come to $600/month. That's the extremely conservateive bar minimum I'd consider for anything to be "paying" (extremely poorly, but making something resembling cash flow).

So with that metric: what scene are you in that brings in $600 in tips or 6-12 gigs a month?

>You may only make $50-$100 a gig starting out but you make it in an hour or two and as soon as you start drawing a crowd you will start getting better gigs.

Not even close to reasonably paying and you greatly underestimate how hard it is to draw a crowd these days.

I'm treating this as a means to live, not some little hobby you do on the side. This isn't even close to an "entry level". my first gigs in tech had me making $12/hr for 20 hours of work during the school week, and people would rightfully call that way below my worth. But it passes my metric of $800/month, so it can be considered "entry level".
Yeah, having spent the last few years in REST world I sort of thought the same thing.

>My developer friend in Japan who always wanted a family never received much dates and when he did not one commited.

I had absolutely no trouble getting dates here when I moved here. There must have been something about your friend that just isn't attractive to Japanese women. Is he religious, overweight, or have a beard? You can't expect a person to be equally attractive to any arbitrary group; different cultures have different standards.

I’m way out of my depth in this subject, but I find this incredibly fascinating.

I had to read up on supersolids; still not fully understanding.

I once had a naïve perspective that we’d figured out all the “big” stuff in science, but I’m now of the perspective that we’re still only scratching the surface.
