There are many more, but those are the ones I think are worth a peek to someone else.
Should’ve been more clear. You can now buy chocolate that is marketed as “dark chocolate” but has similar sugar content to milk chocolate. Manufacturers have adapted to our buying behaviour.
If I look at an article like this, I have the impression that Solid is in the early process of discovering their own gotchas:

I am not saying similar to Homa protocol since it's catering for data center traffic but a new transport protocol alternative to cater for rapid delay variations or jitter needs that's unique to LEO networking.
which spies even more than Chrome
Another issue is that content is now being written to accommodate the ads, it's not really value in its own right anymore. So much reporting and writing is terrible, because it's seen as a cost, while the ads are the source of revenue.

Even if you pay to not see the ads, then content won't change and you'll still be served the same "damaged goods". The quality of the writing doesn't go up when you're on the other side of the paywall.
Dear friends!
I am a simple programmer. I had a website in 2009, where I posted useful articles. I had a small ad block, which allowed me to pay for my expenses. When users began to install ad blockers en masse, the number of ad views dropped significantly and I had to close the site. Now I have no job and I am very poor. I want to thank those people who not only do not want to pay for good service, but also install ad blockers. Now you say that there is nothing to find on the Internet. Who will do something for you for free? Maybe a taxi driver will take you for free?
I gave it a try and o1 is better than I was expecting. In particular the writing style is a lot lighter on "GPTisms". It's not very willing to show you its thought process though, the summaries of it seem to skip a lot more than in the preview.
I have used Gitlab CI basically daily for over 5 years and it makes sense. I would need to think hard to come up with something that seems fundamentally wrong.

I have never used Github Actions. Can you explain or give some examples what doesn't make sense?
Remember two spaces after every sentence? The good old days.
Could you give a clear example from history? Usually it isn’t clear. For example, historians are still not in agreement about when the Roman empire ended [1].

Not when it is done right. Most or all podcasts and youtube channels are perfect examples of static ads. I have interacted and signed up with things cos I find them useful. Imagine, the entire podcast industry and youtube channels are dependent on static ads to make revenue. And people say it doesn't work.

Static / Contextual ads means:

- no data collection needed

- More money to websites/apps cos they are removing google and facebook as middlemen.

- Can be privacy friendly

- Provide free content means more reach

- Lesser scams, ad malwares and other scammy things

Behavioural ads with data economy over api's became mainstream because we had to directly make relationships with people who want to show ads in our website and apps. It's time consuming and you will need a worthwhile product to show and pitch your website/ads as an ideal place for them to show their ads to. And you cannot just create a bunch of pages and setup google ads and be done with it. Delegating this has been bad for the websites/apps and for users equally. The only winners have been google, facebook like players.

I have been writing an article on this topic for months. I will finish and hopefully I can make a more articulated case then.
I personally completely avoid UI libraries as we have our own that we built in-house, so I wouldn't know, I just know there's more of them and they're more mature in React land.

But gun to my head, Shadcn would probably be my choice. For Vue it'd be PrimeVue. Those are the two highest quality ones I've tried in small projects, so no clue how they scale in real-world projects.
I prefer the codes of Chris Seivey/ Frank Sidebottom.

Only, it too GCHQ to finally solve them.

> is a giant stinking heap of blubber,

Is it actually stinking? I'd assume no, both as most smells are associated with decay and our ability to smell is somewhat hampered in the cold, but I have no idea how much blubber normally stinks.
Too bad Andy Grove is dead.
You can use JSON using the accept parameter of the API. The url structure remains the same. It also supports YAML and I found that's easiest to read for LLMs.

Previous example but in JSON:

https://uithub.com/upstash/docs/tree/main/qstash?accept=appl...

Is there any reason to prefer JSONL besides it being more efficient to edit? I'm happy to add it to my backlog if you think it has any advantages for LLMs
> this stuff is not bottle-necked on model quality but on UX. Chat is not that great of an interface. Copy pasting blobs of text back to an editor seems like it is a bit monkey work. And monkey work should be automated.

I agree wholeheartedly and that's why I recommend cursor to the point I'm being called a shill for them. I have no relationship to them, but they've shipped the first product that actually addresses this!

They have a "small model" that takes a suggestion in the chat mode (provided by claude3.5 usually but o1 / 4o also work) and "magic merges" it into your codebase at the click of a button. It feels like such an easy task, but I bet it's not and a lot of tinkering went into it and the small mdoel they use. But the UX results are great. You start a chat, frame the problem, get an answer, hit "apply" and see it go line by line and incorporate the changes into your existing code.

Give it a try.
If the content is just a bunch of text, isn't that just ten dollars a month?
I was at a 'techtalk' recently with over 100 attendees, where Gitlab was a sponsor and the second of two talks. Before either talk the GitLab person gave a short pitch on the whole GitLab AI developer productivity vision and how great they are.

There was a short break after the first talk concluded during which about a third of the attendees left, myself included.
Um, the last release for this was over 5 years ago. Clearly, this is an abandoned project. Why share it all of a sudden over here, or am I missing something?
If you aim for the stars and fail, others can remember your folly by the smoking crater you leave behind.
It seems like a damned if you do, damned if you don't. How is ChatGPT going to provide relevant answers to company specific prompts if they don't train on your data?

My personal take is that most companies don't have enough data, and not in sufficiently high quality, to be able to use LLMs for company specific tasks.
Indeed React unfortunately wins over in terms of quantity of jobs, I'd argue mostly due to network effects. Hopefully that changes some day!

Native development is definitely a pain point, unfortunately there's few options other than React Native there. Problem being that React is backed by Meta, so obviously it has a lot more money being thrown at it compared to competitors like Vue or Svelte.
I don't think it's much difference, but I've read that Markdown codeblocks (or YAML, or XML) is better for code than JSON, for example:
https://aider.chat/2024/08/14/code-in-json.html

I think it makes sense.

YAML is shorter and easier to read, Markdown codeblocks have no added syntax between the lines compared to normal code.

But JSON vs JSONL I can't come up with any big advantages for the LLM, it's mostly the same.
I don’t get why advertisers still advertise. I select brands either by nearest retail box store or by dedicated research into comparative qualities. I don’t watch or listen to any advertising-supported video or audio media. I don’t use personalized or targeted promotion codes. I don’t ever knowingly click on banner/interstitial ads of any kind.

Am I still in the minority or has my behavior become more prevalent?

(Note that I’m not talking about adblockers; I’m talking about refusing to interact with ads, whether due to no adblocker or due to not being caught for whatever reason.)
THERE MUST BE CODE EXAMPLES ON YOUR FRONT PAGE! ugh. when will they learn.
Approximately all of them. The property is "referential transparency", and it's such a sensible thing to have that people assume they already have it (per your question).

The "test/prod" was an unnecessary detail - there's really nothing saying that f(x) will equal f(x) in most languages in most circumstances! It can return different things on repeated calls to it, it can behave differently if two threads call into it at once.

It's a major part of the reason people don't see the appeal of Haskell. They think they already have "type-safety" and "functional stuff" and "generics" and "null-safety" - but it's really not the same.
correct, they're redoing a different part of the concourse now, and once it's all done the temporary stuff will go away.

that's just what's required to rehab an airport while it is still in active use.
Yes, I'm having ElasticSearch shard failures and Out Of Memory error fever every time I have to think about Java / Scala databases.

Its not the end game but most rather have more fps for high refresh rate on higher graphic setting than couple more pixel you won't notice unless you search for it and low fps and/or low graphic settings.
The correct amount of tracking ads at least. We always paid for magazines and newspapers and saw ads despite paying. But then the transaction was between the publisher and the advertiser, and MY information wasn't sold. They were dumb ads.

If I pay for online content it's NOT for the content itself (obviously not, in the case of freemium), it's in order to not have to pay with my personal information. I want to pay with money. But if I'm shown tracking and precisely targeted ads despite paying, that feels like I'm being charged twice. So the article is right: the amount of ads, at least if you consider tracking, must be zero.
I thought it was specifically some very lawyerly shenanigans that you couldn't legally talk about it while a juror in the course of your duties (without it being grounds for your dismissal from the jury) but they specifically couldn't stop you from engaging in it. Making the whole thing into an induction puzzle of sorts to leave the nullifier to persuade the others into a 'not guilty' without explicitly invoking the idea of jury nullification.
Struggling to reconcile this is cool with what about the insane energy/water costs. Are we supposed to stick our heads in the sand? Hope it will magically go away?
Motivated individuals will make for an even less fair system. Current CEOs and politicians and rich businessmen are by far the most motivated individuals, with lots of resources at their disposal.

Courts and laws have become corrupted, but you tink letting people at random make their own justice will not be corrupted?

One of the reasons this even sounds remotely possible to you is we have not abandoned the idea of the rule of law. If it were abandoned outright, the CEOs (or whatever) would never be outside of protected areas and without guards and such. Ordinary citizens however, would not afford protection.

PDX is probably the last remaining major west coast airport that isn't going to be physically constrained, if anybody wants to start a new hub.
I promise you it stinks of rancid fat to high hell, despite the interior of the cabin having been below freezing for over a century, as the freezing point of the oils in blubber is well below zero - the strips of blubber sit in a puddle of foul oil. Sour, rotten smell. Thankfully the boot room/stables are separated from the rest of the cabin by a door, so the rest of the cabin just smells of camphor and old paper.

One of the people I was with had to run outside and vomit - and then carefully scoop up all of their vomit into a plastic bag, because you only leave footprints in the Antarctic, and take nothing but what you brought with you - including your stomach contents.
We have a whole article on Intel's Board and not a single word on Andy Bryant?

Andy Bryant was large part of the reason Pat Gelsinger left Intel in the first place.

He has been the Chairman of the Board since 2012 and on the board as Vice Chairman for even longer. So yes, all the strategy and direction of Intel's CEO in the past 10 years prior to Pat Gelsinger can be attributed to him.

He also handpicked all the Intel CEO since Paul Otellini.

Pat was called number of times to be backed as next CEO to save Intel during and after Brian Krzanich 's era. He said "no" every time.

Pat agree to be new CEO to replace interim or later official CEO Bob Swan after Andy Bryant's announced his retirement in early 2020. Handing it over to his friend Omar Ishrak.

The share-holding part was the reason why Intel cant cut off its dividends the first thing Pat came back. They only wanted Intel to keep handing out those dividends.

And ultimately it was the Shareholders or Wall Street, handing out Board Membership to their circles until it is run to the ground.
When there is no justice for the people who have to suffer and/or die due to the callousness of management at health insurance companies like this, then I don't see another option. Suing doesn't do any good. The government can't or won't do anything. Nobody cares if you're denied life-saving care, or if it's delayed until it's too late. Until now, there were never any consequences. They have a captive market where all the competitors behave the same way at the expense of people who need health care.
I'm definitely a React hater personally, but Linear (https://linear.app) is built with React and is impressively fast and responsive.
> If you don't like that they have ads even if you pay then don't use the service.

The assumption is that you always pay. Either with your information, or with your money. But the key word there is Either.
My parents had mid/severe problem with lotteries, they kept saying god was going to make them win the lottery so they could pay off their debts and fix the car.

I remember when I found out that some months they were spending around 20% of their income on lotteries.

> One day the collapse is apparent to us all, and complete.

This only happens in historical retrospect. The sacking of Rome in 476 theoretically marked the collapse of The Roman Empire in Western Europe but nonetheless people all over Europe continued to live in a Roman style and think of themselves as citizens of the Roman Empire for a very long time.

We won't know when our society has collapsed. Our grand children may.
Glad I'm not the only one. I see 4o as a lot more of a sidegrade. At this point I mix them up and I legitimately can't tell, sometimes I get bad responses from 4, sometimes 4o.

Responses from gpt-4 sound more like AI, but I haven't had seemingly as many issues as with 4o.

Also the feature of 4o where it just spits out a ton of information, or rewrites the entire code is frustrating
GitHub was in an odd position; HR had politically captured every department. A buyout by someone so big was pretty much the only way to do it.

The justice system doesn't have a great track record of being actual justice either.
I love this idea. In the past I stored our coding style guidelines and philosophy in our wiki. Putting it into git brings it closer to where it is used. Also, it makes it more easily accessible to AI tools, which is an added bonus.

How do you imagine murdering the guilty would be possible when sending them to jail is not? Do you think courts are corrupted, but if random people just took justice into their own hands that would work out to be fair and just?

I know nothing, but reading the news "CEO assasinated" my first thought is he was murdered by a rival organisation.

CEOs are not martians. They're some of "the people" we are talking about. They rose to the top through ruthlessness and disregard for laws and such. You think giving up on laws will make them less powerful?
The GPU prorgramming language tech landscape is generally pretty low-tech on the compilers side.
Tensor cores are not supported.

(Culturally of course the big one is the fragmentation and the proprietary nature of everything which is the reason so little gets done on GPUs and the horror of attempting multiplatform software there)
Yes I enjoyed and used the ads in print computer magazines in the 90s.
I think having highly relevant, content based static inline first party ads is tolerable and occasionally useful. Especially for specialist hardware / software. 3rd party ads that track you across the Internet are just evil and I will block them forever. As others have said, I would probably pay €50 per month for news, but not to a handful of mainstream sites. I need broad diverse coverage. Some micro transaction system is needed.
I wasn't sure if your use of "stinking" was literal or not, I didn't think you were lying. Thanks for clarifying!

Yeah, I remember reading about this and the reality is, Everest is still a very extreme environment even by today’s standards. It’s very expensive and risky to fly helicopters in the thin atmosphere and weather conditions so it’s very hard to get material up and down.
I thought the point was to prosecute them and condemn them to death. Do you think random murder by whoever is upset enough will work out to be fair in the real world, not a fantastical one?
Some YouTubers scream in panic that you dare to install ad blocker. Well nobody told them to build their business around such ad-driven solution.

There are thousands, and thousand of useful places, each for free. Take a look at awesome lists at github. These provide so much value to the society. It does not require any subscriptions, nor money.

There are millions of people who share education, and knowledge for free. If you build a business, you need to build it around things that are sustainable.

The old boomer internet is also over. Google will not lead anyone to any niche blog, or site. Now everything is inside big tech siloses, where "the algorithm" spoonfeds people with what zuckerberg likes. Go advertise any real http domain with any useful data. Nobody cares.

Its difficult to tease these things out, but Hegel was the dominant philosophical force of the 19th century in the UK, so any logic immediately following that period had to deal with the immensity of his influence. True, once we get to the 90s, its not clear if the authors are entirely aware of the intellectual history and are just building off of ontologies that they have uncritically adopted as "logic," but in broad strokes it is still the case that the development of logic in the 20th century is as a direct response to Hegelian philosophy.
This.

I understand ads are a necessary evil for some kind of product, and it allows some content to be freely accessible.

BUT no the step from "ads" to "personalized ads" is not worth the loss of privacy, All the CPU times, all the Brain times, all the money wasted in creating always more complex infrastructure to provide a "better" ads experience.

So I'm genuinely interested to know the other side of the tradeoff, as content creator, what is the difference between "classic ads" (i.e I'm a tech blog I have ads about tech products) and "heavily personalized ads" in term of money making.

If someone also has the number as well in term of click rate etc.
