it sounds like you just don't know what it's like to be bullied. it's not just about the verbal knowledge that tomorrow at school you'll be hit. it's the visceral anxiety that tomorrow at school you will be hit. without social media, you can try to block it out of your mind and pretend it's not happening. with social media, I assume, you are constantly reminded of what's happening, because now the bully can reach out to you and directly remind you.

the reason I said assume there is because I went to school before social media - but my biggest bully was my dad, so it was impossible to completely escape the bullying. in fact I loved going to school, because those bullies I could handle. I gave them as much grief as I took. but the one at home I was stuck with, because he controlled all my movements and time with people outside school hours.

I expect cyberbullying isn't very different, traumatically speaking.
this IMO is why groupchat is best social network. Anything with more than 20 people doesnt go on my phone. sorry marketers.
It’s a much, much denser successor to sicp. I hadn’t succeeded in self-studying with it despite strong lisp/scheme chops and strong affinity for sicp.
Younger me thinks this is really awesome. This was my DREAM during Halo 2 years. Kudos. The design, the hardware, the room itself. The house is beautiful. The pictures and write ups are fantastic.

Feel free to ignore the next part of my comment:

Current me with lived experiences and knowledge of the world thinks it’s a little disgusting. I don’t think it’s your fault, or you’re intending to do that. I don’t think YOU’RE disgusting. Just flaunting wealth in your own nerdy gamer way which many wealthy people are wont to do. I don’t blame you. If I could afford a 7 figure house and 150k for an adult playhouse I don’t think I’d say no. The computer hardware alone being outdated and turning into e-waste soon enough while people including children sleep and starve in the streets just rubs me the wrong way.

Anybody remember Rich Kids of IG?

Anyway. I wouldn’t feel right with myself if I didn’t say something. I don’t think you did anything wrong, you are a product of your environment as am I. I won’t check responses to this comment just putting it out there is enough for me. Enjoy your LAN parties dude!
A tool which is of no use to them in performing their actual job.

> If you watch it over cable, you're live streaming it.

Those are multicast feeds.

> Trying to push a live IP stream directly from the remote live venue rarely works as expected.

In my experience it almost always works as expected. We have highly specialized codecs and equipment for this. The stream is actively managed with feedback from the receiver so parameters can be adjusted for best performance on the fly. Redundant connections and multiple backhauls are all handled automatically.

> That's precisely why the broadcasters/networks do not do it that way

We use fixed point links and satellite where possible because we own the whole pipe. It's less coordination and effort to setup and you can hit venues and remotes where fixed infrastructure is difficult or impossible to install.

You’re talking about a different thing. I’m strictly talking about actual forcing, and by that I mean giving legal repercussions to people who wouldn’t do it.

> 1. Always be building: It does not matter if code was not changed...

> 2. Always be releasing...

A good argument for this is security. Whatever libraries/dependencies you have, unpin the versions, and have good unit tests. Security vulnerabilities that are getting fixed upstream must be released. You cannot fix and remove those vulnerabilities unless you are doing regular releases. This in turn also implies having good unit tests, so you can do these builds and releases with a lower probability of releasing something broken. It also implies strong monitoring and metrics, so you can be the first to know when something breaks.
Agreed. A lot of people call themselves allies while actively sabotaging relationships with the 60% of the population that they need to get on board with change to actually make a difference. We just got a very visceral illustration of the harm that that kind of ally with good intentions has caused.

I've done more to advance LGBT acceptance by quietly listening to people in deep red states and then (after listening to them!) helping them to see the other perspective than 100 internet commenters raging about how everything comes down to extremes.

You can label me whatever you like, but I'm going to keep up my approach, because it's obvious that the mainstream left's approach is a total failure.
I would posit that the imperative to “grow up” is in fact part of the problem. As children become adults they’re repeatedly told to “be realistic” and follow well-worn paths taken by numerous others in attempt to avoid “failure”. Don’t do the thing you’ve dreamed about since you were a kid, become a doctor/lawyer/developer/etc. Don’t discover yourself and explore the possibilities, stick to what’s “safe”.

This systematically douses natural sparks and transforms achievable goals into unreachable fantasies. People increasingly can’t imagine themselves breaking outside of the box, pushing boundaries, and changing the world, because the world has told them that they can’t and that they're best off not even trying.

My same experience. For much of the rest of the cs curriculum I felt like we had already to some extent covered the main ideas in 61a with sicp.
Well I think there are a lot of people out there who define bullying as "when a random person in a group is selected to be harassed". And if you ask them what they think about it they would say "It's horrible and totally unacceptable".

But "disciplining" someone that is acting weird on the other hand is the right thing to do, that is not "bullying" to them. But for the person that becomes the subject of this it becomes, "you sit wrong", "you talk wrong", "you eat wrong", "your sense of humor is wrong" until it feels like you can't do anything right. Some people even think they can fix your "wrong" behavior by hitting you, and then it becomes physical bullying.

A lot of people wanna believe that bullying is like the fist scenario because that is easier than actually having to start accepting people the way they are - even if they are a little "weird".
Most people would be OK with suppressing CSAM. At least I hope most people are.

By the same logic, there's no place in the universe that general relativity applies either, since it breaks down at the quantum level. There's no place in the universe where any theory other than the one true grand unified theory applies, because everything else is just an approximation. At which point we're just arguing about semantics, and I don't see a reason for continuing it on my part.
No, they couldn’t.

As it happens, this morning I came across an LLM specifically designed to describe shoes: https://ollama.com/injoon5/shoe-explainer

Coincidence?
If you look at institutions that are more concerned with punishing the type of people who will fight back than the bullies themselves, the motivations behind these sorts of policies make a lot more sense.
> Basically, SQL syntax makes easy things easy. This gets underestimated a lot, indeed people seem to have contempt for it. I think that's a serious mistake.

The flip side of that is SQL makes hard things nearly impossible.

SQL doesn't have facilities for abstraction, and it doesn't compose, and this has consequences that I deal with daily.

The lack of abstract facilities makes it hard to construct complicated queries, it makes it hard to debug them, and it makes it hard refactor them.

Instead of writing more complicated SQL queries, developers lean on the host languages to coordinate SQL calls, using the host language's abstraction facilities to cover for SQL's inadequacies.
I find parent's comment very truthful and (mostly) reflects the reality, based on my personal experience. Saying that as someone who created many pull requests and opened/participated in many github issues for open source projects.

Physical assault is a serious crime and calling it simply ”bullying” is saying ”boys will be boys”.

The ”bullies” who beat me up in elementary school all went ahead to have careers in things like dealing kilos of meth and torturing people to death.

Not hyperbole, btw.
Can anyone comment on the current prevalence of bullying in schools in the UK vs the USA? We have been considering moving from the Us to the UK but perceived higher likelihood of bullying for our mixed race kids is one concern holding us back. It's hard to know if we are exaggerating that concern or if it is warranted, it would seem hard to know the level of hostility of a school environment prior to moving there.
> "nobody sees the first hit"

This perpetuates the myth that "real" bullying is physical and that psychological abuse is not bullying. Most of the bullying i've seen was psychological and partially material (usually taking things from the target or damaging them).

The only instances where i've seen physical bullying were in low grades where the children had not yet developed the mental capacity for creative verbal abuse or in higher grades where bullying was left unchecked for so long that the aggressors felt confident they could get away with it.
I said I believe it's a hoax. I never claimed to be able to prove anything. I believe the evidence that purports to show that the documents aren't genuine, which you can refer to. Even a lot of people in the UFO community don't find the Majestic 12 documents credible.

You can't prove they're real, either, although you might believe they are. On balance however there seems to be more evidence against them than for them.

Going from DirectX to Vulkan to Metal is simply too many translation layers to work well. You're almost always going to end up with an annoying bottleneck and poor hardware utilization. MoltenVK alone might be fine if Vulkan was more widely supported by shipping games.

I think it's more plausible that Valve decides to make a Proton for Mac using the D3D to Metal translation layer from Apple's Game Porting Toolkit—but that would be going against Apple's intended purpose for the toolkit.
I've had an account for a few months now, it always felt very dead, but something feels like it's shifted.
> Fourth big flaw in the product: having junior associates do menial tasks at $800-950/hr is a feature, not a bug, of law firm business model. So you are solving for something that the target customer doesn’t necessarily want solved.

Also, starting with menial work is how junior associates are trained to do more complex work.
A social body relies on signals. If the signals are not predictable then you're facing the exact same problem. You've also opened the door on a single bad signal infecting the social body and pushing towards outcomes that would not occur if that single influence was not otherwise present.

If you're going to rely on this dynamic, then you're going to have this consideration.
You have $1M of net worth that isn’t a house (and is therefore likely to be liquid) and you can’t afford to buy a house? Where and how much?
Why use an LLM as opposed to a more narrow purpose built model? LLMs are not beating smaller, purpose built models on tasks like POS tagging, NER, sentiment analysis, etc. And the inference costs scale quite poorly (unless you are self hosting llama or something).
As a booru and ao3 enjoyer I can promise you that a tag based system works perfectly if posters are good about applying consistent agreed-upon tags and users are good about subscribing to tags they like and putting tags they dont like on their PBL.

I dont think mega-big 'public square' type platforms will ever achieve this since growth requires chasing the most passive types of consumers who need everything done for them.

It doesn’t. They’re just expressing their jealousy in a thinly veiled and highly embarrassing way.

Thanks.

I have a copy of Programming in Rust on my desk! I'm slowly working through it (it's quite the tomb). I have also been reading the 'official' Rust book online (it's lighter and more of an introduction).

I'm a bit more hands-on so I have been doing the reading while doing actual coding. I have built a few web APIs with actix and working through coding exercises (https://rust-exercises.com/100-exercises/).

I feel the biggest issues I'm having are around ownership and lifetimes, especially in a long running process with many pieces (like an API server).
One million accounts per day, and all of them making posts about their X.

Virtualizing older macOS on M4 hardware has nothing to do with Rosetta 2. And it would be ridiculous for Apple to remove hardware features that Rosetta 2 relies upon before they're actually ready to retire Rosetta 2—that would force Apple to invest more software engineering effort in updating Rosetta 2 to work without those features.
What's preventing everyone from putting their faith in another broadcast medium just to have it sold to Elon again? It's hard to trust social media these days. They have 0 incentive to be "good" from a variety of perspectives not just political.
> I have wondered a bit about why a sheet of typing paper folded into a paper airplane had as much appeal as it did when I was young. I think the kind of poverty of youth (my single, working-mom, a secretary, sneaking home the paper for me) forced a kind of creativity on me. We all made do with what was around the house.

This may be presumptuous of me because I obviously don't know your head, but I think you've missed the mark here, even though you know the secret when hoping you've passed the magic on to your kids. Exploration. The paper airplane isn't exciting because you have to make do, it's exciting because it's an avenue for exploration. How can I make it go further? What happens if I throw it upside down? What if I throw it from high up? Can I get it to curve? There's also a degree of self competition (i.e. if I can do X can I do X+1?)

It's easier when we're younger because there's so many more things to explore and so many things are so new we don't yet know what we don't like to explore. As we get older, we remove things from the list of things we're willing or able to explore, and our level of exploration must go deeper in order to be as magical since we know the surface stuff or can guess it pretty well. I think this also explains why adults can pull magic out of otherwise "boring" hobbies. Think stamp collecting or bird watching. And it's why we can find magic in things we thought were boring as a kid, because we're old enough now to explore what we once didn't understand.
Why why why do people share articles with sensational headlines like this? Its no wonder science journalism gets a bad rap. This kind of thing really undermines all the people who are actually trying to communicate science properly.

Fair enough. I just wish it was made clearer earlier. Good luck with your project.
> Composite(a * b) distinct :- ...

Wait, does Logica factorize the number passed to this predicate when unifying the number with a * b?

So when we call Composite (100) it automatically tries all a's and b's who give 100 when m7ltiplied

I'd be curious to see the SQL it transpiles to.
Well CS and software dev in trenches moved a bit.

There are still jobs where people write frameworks, database engines or version control tools. Those jobs require heavy CS and algorithms, data structures day to day. But there are less of those jobs nowadays as no one is implementing db engine for their app they just use Postgres.

Other jobs that is vast majority is dealing with implementing business logic. Using database with understanding how it works in details is of course going to produce better outcomes. Yet one still can produce great amount of working software without knowing how indexes are stored on disk.

Also a lot of CS graduates fell into a trap where they think their job is to write a framework - where in reality they should just use frameworks and implement business logic- while using CS background to fully understand frameworks already existing.

This is absurd. Does it happen? Yes. But this is not the primary driver.

We turned housing into retirement funds. The median family's wealth is their primary residence. We cannot have these assets depreciate in nominal terms for this reason, and we actually need them to appreciate in real terms for people to have a nest egg.

It's awful, but it's the truth.
Possibly. Given the era that this started it is more believable. If a small group secreted it away in the 40s it wouldn't be that difficult to keep it secret. I think that is where all the UFO reporter discrediting came in handy. Anybody that was in the know didn't share and outside reporters were painted as kooks which discouraged others from speaking up. Throw in a few "disappearances" of credible reporters and nobody wants to talk about it.

Fortunately we can all talk to millions of strangers around the world in an instant now. Even the kooks can find a community to share to that might be able to coorberate their story.

What happened on Oct 17? I can't really find anything that would cause such a dramatic uptick on that day specifically.
My niche moved there summer of 2023, took some time to get going, some cross posting for a while etc, but by the end of the year it was almost exclusively on bsky.

But have noticed the uptick, gained like 400 followers the last week. But it's a bit weird, as it's a Norwegian community, no relation to American politics.

I guess it also can feel dead because it doesn't have a viral algorithmic feed like Twitter. But for me that's not an issue, ad even on Twitter I followed few enough people that I always used the chronological view.

But I do like the custom feeds of bsky. Like a search/hashtag on steroids, making it easy to discover others discussing the same theme I'm there for.
My question is, why would you want your containers writing to the box where they run? They should be context independent.

> Yeah I could get higher-quality 10G cards and put them in all the machines but they seem expensive...

Bulk buying is probably hard, but ex-enterprise Intel 10G on eBay tends to be pretty inexpensive. Dual spf+ x520 cards are regularly available for $10. Dual 10g-base-t x540 cards run a bit more, with more variance, $15-$25. No 2.5/5Gb support, but my 10g network equipment can't do those speeds either, so no big deal. These are almost all x8 cards, so you need a slot that can accomidate them, but x4 electrical should be fine (I've seen reports that some enterprise gear has trouble working properly in x1/x4 slots beyond bandwidth restrictions which shouldn't be a problem; if a dual port card needs x8 and you only have x4 and only use a single port, that should be fine)

I think all of mine can pxeboot, but sometimes you have to fiddle with the eeprom tools, and they might be legacy only, no uefi pxe, but that's fine for me.

And you usually have to be ok with running them with no brackets, cause they usually come with low profile brackets only.
