I try to read at least 16 books a year (usually it turns out to be more). I cannot stress enough how much this helped me increase my skills.

One example: The Go Programming Language. I tried using Go several years back after using Java for years and my experience was horrible. Then I read this book and I understood the philosophy behind Go, followed all exercises. Am I Go expert? Far from it. But I am proficient enough to write my own tools or contribute small fixes to other teams at work efficiently.
Color management is not just for HDR displays. It's one of the reasons creatives always leaned toward Macs - system-wide color management has been a thing for ages there.

Wayland wasn't initially designed with it in mind because they haven't consulted their supposed userbase for their use cases, instead focusing on a narrow problem space that was understandable for them personally, and codifying their assumptions. It's basically another case of "falsehoods programmers believe about X".
Back when Llama was leaked on /g/ 4chan's /g/lmg/ was the best place to be up to date with local models. It still might be but not so much.

People think 4chan is just /pol/ when in fact more boards exist and their users don't really appreciate when /pol/ leaks into their threads.

George is an API leveraging AI to make it easy to control a computer with natural language.

Unlike traditional frameworks which rely on predefined static selectors, this API uses AI vision to interpret the screen. This makes it more resilient to UI changes and able to automate interfaces that traditional tools can't handle.
DKMS solved these "licensing issues." Dell is mum on official motivation- but it provides a licensing demarcation point, and a way for kernels to update without breaking modules- so it's easier for companies to develop for Linux.

_Windows Drivers work the same way and nobody huffs and puffs about that_

I'd love to have an intelligent discussion on how one person's opinion on licensing issues stacks up against the legal teams of half the fortune 50's. Licensing doesn't work on "well, I didn't mean it THAT way."
I apparently have sarcoidosis. The last flareup was bad enough to get a diagnosis. But docs think based on my history that I've had it for 20 years.

What I think is viral infections can cause low grade immune system dysregulation. Nominally there isn't anything obviously wrong. But it shows up in feeling crappy and having stress intolerance. It's a problem because medicine doesn't have any tests or treatments for that.

It's totally ass. However some people do get better after a year or two.

Yeah sure, by that logic: what's next, ban networking for septuagenarians? Ban bingo as a dangerous gateway to online gambling? Ridiculous. Or perhaps the ultimate result: a brain license. You can comment online when you can construct a logical argument free of fallacy. Otherwise, stay in your hole. I'm sure society would be much better off with a Truman Show 'constabubble' for all, consuming rehashed and reverberated stereotypical pre-preference like spoonfed semi-souls locked in eternal preteen angst where the illiterati's pop-pinnacle of eloquence is dwelling on the artfully anticipative breathless pause before celebrating the only universally valid response: emotional offense and outrage at anyone or anything that can be construed as threatening the sacred illiterati-ignobubble. Stop being spoon-fed, grow the fork up, pick up the metaphoric knife and teach your kids to use it to pop their own bubble and dissect unfiltered reality: that's the one we actually live in.

I remember reading that Thatcher used to nap regularly throughout the day. She probably got more sleep than was stated at the time.
Underrated habit - Even for people without diagnosed ADHD, there's a skill aspect to deep focus that is developed through experience and discipline. Habit is a shortcut to discipline.

What a lot of people see in themselves as ADHD is at least compounded by underdeveloped and (willfully) neglected skill in being able to focus. Not saying all, so chill everyone. But if you have self or professionally diagnosed ADHD, do you "exercise" and build your focusing muscles regularly by engaging in tasks that require focused attention? Do you discipline yourself away from the junk (doom scrolling, short video consumption)? Or like someone who is a servant of their affliction do you avoid what's hard and indulge in these behaviors that reinforce the problem?

TL;DR: The ability to focus is a perishable skill for everyone.

I live in the Okanagan in British Columbia and the local honeycrisp are still good here. I think the colder climate and smaller scale farms here make for a better apple. We also have long term storage facilities where the apples are stored in nitrogen which really helps with freshness.

The local place I go to is straight from the grower and they have a 24/7 cold storage facility of apple bins operated by the honour system. All apples are $1 a pound.

Part of the issue here is that wineries have been historically more profitable than orchards so there are many fewer places to buy local fruit. In the past two years however, there has been cold snaps which have killed 50% and 90% of grape vines subsequently so people are starting to question the stability of wineries.

Hey robinhood, any feedback on Talos?

We've been using Talos for our internal clusters for a while, but with quite small ones (3 kube node, 5 worker nodes).

Upgrading has been generally a non event, and we're quite happy with them.

How do you deploy Thanos ? In one of the clusters ?
Do you mean you just left out required args, try-catches for checked exceptions, and so on, so the example would be easier to read? Did you put an asterisk on, like "* illustrative code: will not compile"?

The entire immigration argument is racist and based on Trump's "Mexican rapists" diatribe from 2015, which he doubled down on this year.

No one remembers that Reagan signed an immigration law that gave 10 million immigrants a path to citizenship.

"Illegal immigration" is never about drugs or crime. It's about brown people "invading" our "white" country. Read anything about Stephen Miller's thoughts and you'll understand he literally wants to "reverse" the trend of minority "growth" in our country ... at ANY cost.

We are a nation of immigrants and undocumented workers have a massive positive impact on our economy. This is a fact.

People come to our country because of what we sell, which is the "land of opportunity" and ruled by laws. And the second someone crosses the border and says, "I'm seeking asylum," they are no longer "illegal". They are simply undocumented.

So, I have serious doubts about anyone saying they're against immigrants and that it's coming from a racist (even minimally) perspective. Racism is a core tenant of Nazism and Fascism.
The main issue that I have with self-help and pop-business books is that they are always way too long. They are forced to be because "books" are expected to be a certain length.

There's always one or two good ideas that you get early in the book, and then the rest is repetition and filler.

Because this issue is so common, I think that it actually is okay to just listen to a youtube video summary of most of these books.

My other trick is to always get the first edition version of the book; they tend to be shorter and clearer.
It's definitely higher than 5km/s, but I would not go up to 9.5km/s. My napkin math was - booster provides 2km/s and the LEO is 7.2km/s, so if the ship arrives nearly empty LEO it must provide a minimum 5.2km/s. I did not account for gravity + friction losses which could be guesstimated to 2km/s. If we assume that ship handles all of them (which is not true booster does some) we come up to 5 + 2 = 7.2km/s.

The equation you have uses block 1 prop + dry mass numbers. Block 1 does not have significant payload capability and the last one just flow on OFT 6. As such let's use Block 2 numbers, first one should fly early next year. Dry mass target 100t, payload 100t, prop mass 1,500t. So (3.72 km/s) * ln(1700 / 200) = 7.96 km /s. This is with using min advertised payload of 100t and Elon's forward looking 100t number for dry mass. Way above 5km/s, but reaching 9.5km/s with 100t of payload will be challenging.

I've pulled stats from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Starship .
The goalposts just keep moving...

The claim upthread was that you couldn't make a web app at all without a framework ("or it would just be a document"). I said yes you can and the goalposts shifted to: sure, but only "brochure-ware" (referring to simple unambitious projects). I show an ambitious interactive project made without a framework and now the goalposts are moving to: sure, but large distributed teams couldn't work like this? You know, this solo project is more ambitious than 99% of the projects I work on at my actual work. You know, projects that have 10, 40, or 100 devs working on it.
I think the connection to facebook was the greatest obstacle. No one wanted them to have any kind of control or trusted them.
I think most modern chips are routing constrained and not floorspace constrained. You can build tons of features but getting them all power and normalized signals is an absolute chore.
our architects love building the house before making the drawings. i imagine we will probably figure it out eventually when the feature set can be strictly defined.

(maybe you eventually want a bath tub and a toilet in each room? maybe not?)
You likely work at the top of the food chain in your IT structure as a result? You put care into your work and get results, people leave you alone?

I am the person everyone calls when things hit the fan, when disagreements need to be settled, when unfixable things need to be fixed, when something needs to be figured out. Do I feel qualified, never, no. I don't feel I'd last one day at say Facebook, no chance, I don't have skills to fit into a team, to play nice, the patience needed to grind the political structures. I like my dark corner.

If you’ve never used it don’t declare it dead. Angular is updated regularly every 6 months. While react is busy thinking how to create more SSR apis, the angular team keeps improving developer experience.

IMO right now it’s easier to start an angular project with much less foot guns than react.
Isn't this just a return to pre-90s internet? Back then the internet was only used by a few educated people. The masses watched TV etc to fill their time. Now it's tik tok etc. The early 2000s was an unusual time when more people actually used the internet, but it's going back to normal now.
Took too much time
Technically the opposite of documentation is anecdote.

Literal interpretation of anecdotes lead to superstition.

It’s a bit more sophisticated than that. On a mild sunny day your local network will be saturated with PV power and the supply voltage will creep up. It’s an enforced regulation here (Aus) that the inverters will curtail/shut down based on grid over voltage. No networking required.
Absolutely not. Certainly it's necessary that the database schema be compatible with whatever the application believes the schema to be, but the application need not be in control of it, and at the orgs I've worked at, there's no way we could build zero-downtime systems if the application had to be in charge of schema.

Consider even a very simple case: let's say I have a database with two (identical) application servers talking to it (that is, I've horizontally scaled my application due to load and availability requirements). If I need to do a schema change, and the application needs to be in charge of schema, how would that even work? If I deploy the change & migration to one of the two servers, once the migration is complete, the second server will freak out because the schema doesn't match its "authoritative" view anymore. If I deploy the change to both servers at the same time, and somehow designate one of them to actually run the migration, then the other one will immediately panic on startup because the first server hasn't completed the migration yet.

Not to mention this setup breaks red/black deployments: even in the case where I only have one application server in front of the database, how do I bring up a new deployment, allow both servers to run while the new one is passing health checks, and then bring down the original server? They would both have different "authoritative" views of what the schema should be.

This also completely breaks the ability to roll back, at least without also rolling the schema back too. That's risky; I don't want to have my service rollback depend on schema rollback also working properly.

This kind of "application is authoritative about schema" only works when you can schedule downtime to do schema changes. That would be a non-starter for any company I've worked at.
In my view, in most cases ACs now perform one of two roles (1) summarize what reviewers have said, and/or (2) if there is a high variance in scores, they request the reviewers to sort it out among themselves, and THEN summarize :). I am exaggerating here - sometimes they do engage, but these cases are far in between. Among my personal experiences, this has only happened twice: (a) during an ARR review where I was an author, we had requested the committee to intervene because one set of reviews went wildly off-track (along the lines of "more experiments", like you mention), (b) as a reviewer, I had pointed out some glaring benchmarking omissions, and the AC took time to understand the concern and decided to bring it up for discussion.

> I crave for someone to actually _criticize_ my work

Yes! But if you are not doing mainstream DL, good constructive criticism is almost impossible to obtain. I feel like many reviewers expect half the paper to be a tutorial if it is not a trendy topic. Which I find is unfair for multiple reasons: (1) for a trendy topic much more complex topics are unexplained, because it is assumed the reviewer has heard of it, (2) yes, the previous point makes sense, but this is what cited materials or the Appendix is for, (3) most conferences have a page limit for the main paper, so you cannot go about rambling and arbitrarily explaining ideas, and (4) this is supposed to be a rigorous review process, it is not supposed to be easy. It shouldn't come as a shock that some papers take (sometimes a lot of) work to review!
This is interesting. Could you provide any information about this commercial product? As far as I understand, the most sophisticated treatment happening is low oxygen storage. But neither of these things explain why apples straight off the tree are also bland.

What about the spammers that already destroyed the internet by steering it entirely towards advertising & surveillance capitalism? It's like the pot calling the kettle black.

We're all complicit in the enshittification of the internet and technology in general, just that we delude ourselves into believing we're on the "good" side because we call it "advertising" or "marketing" or "analytics" instead of spam, more spam and spyware.

The end result is exactly the same however.
You're mixing up unrelated concepts. In particular, the payload capacity to LEO of 100 tonnes has nothing to do with this calculation.

Europa Clipper isn't a 100 tonne payload; it's about 6.
I've been building sites since the 2000s and I'll let you know why React or jQuery "won."

It's because when you write code using these libraries, your code looks nice.

I cannot say that for a LOT of libraries, especially MOST frameworks. Sorry for calling AngularJS out but look at a code sample from early Angular: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42823436/angularjs-error... (It looks terrible.)

React will be unseated like jQuery got unseated when someone makes something that looks nicer. Every time you write a library (or even API at work), make sure to look at your code samples and you better be 100% be able to say "this is pretty."

It’s only relatively recently in history that we have relatively reliable methods for passing on knowledge. It is probable that all the “firsts” we know about were just the first occurrence that survived. It is probable that astronomical knowledge like this was discovered and forgotten and discovered over and over again, until finally it persisted.
Which one of these technologies is React built on top of?

It's trivial to include macro structures that invite investigation, and utf8 is irrelevant. It doesn't matter what encoding scheme you use. utf8 is fine. All that matters is that there is structure.
But most people don't use it for the only thing it does well and pick appropriate approaches for the other parts; they use it for everything and this has transpired into the reinventing of browser mechanisms like CSS in user land. This is the real problem. Not the tool "React" (or others like it) but the cult that vehemently denies their bets were wrong and doesn't take responsibility for the real damage it's caused.
> compiles to stable and mature Go and can use every existing Go library

Go+[1](goplus), around since 2020, is already an "extra features" version of Go, that compiles into Go

> It has immutability. It has advanced enums. It has algebraic types.
> It literally addresses every major complaint people have with Go

V[2](vlang) is a Go alternative language that has such features. It was originally given the title of child of Rust and Go[3]. On top of that, even has a Go2V transpiler available.

Speaking of Go alternatives, Odin[4] is not too far away as well, and has recently taken the position of labeling itself as an alternative to Go.

> if only it had this X advanced feature, it would be totally great

Not only are these languages labeled as Go alternatives (Go+, Vlang, and Odin), but they have a significant number of fans, more GitHub stars, and/or a large numbers of contributors.

It could be argued that the field is already kind of crowded. If we squint a little, several other languages could have been added to the list (like C3 and Jai), as alternatives.

You guys must have had some heavy import duties or something. I was buying $9/CD for the older releases and $19.99 for new releases. My parents gave me $20/week for lunch, and I'd skip lunch and save that money to buy a new CD at the end of the week. My parents were far from wealthy.

Once I got into electronic music, things did get a bit more expensive because of the damn "import" stickers coming out of Europe.
