I too find Claude for Rails to be really helpful, except for some of the newer features in Rails 8 for which there is a lot less documentation. I use Claude within Cursor and it has the ability to at-mention documentation so any time I run into this I just follow up with “Can you please double check the @rails8 docs and try again.” (likewise for @stimulus and @hotwire docs)
For about 3 years, I did 12 hour days (4 hour sleep sessions) and inverted days (go to sleep at 7am, wake up at 3pm). The benefits outlined in the article were definitely there - Life felt less busy, and I had a new perspective on everything - But I got sick often, and doing a hard reversal to accommodate visiting family or friends on weekends was brutal (I fell asleep multiple times at houses when I was supposed to be "hanging out").

Overall - I don't regret it, and if you're someone who likes to try different life experiences, give it a shot! But I'm not going back anytime soon :)
It's fine to say "X will hire no additional staff" or "X will remain asleep no longer". These are established phrasings in English.
Most components on a vehicle have a reasonably constrained set of functions. You don't need to be writing the firmware for the seat to have the vehicle controller adjusting the position to each driver. You need good support for controlling the seat in the vehicle controller of course, but you don't need to be writing the firmware on both sides to get that (and that is clearly what he is talking about).
Reading this while holding my new born and man does this hit you right in the gut.

I've kept rats for a long time, I don't know why, but I do know they change behaviour for a period of time once one dies.
Love animals but “grown meat” has proven to be very gross.
Following up on this:
- No source given for the Lidia fire that started in the Angeles National Forest this afternoon.

- A specific house address was given on-air for the Sunset Fire in the Hollywood Hills that started this evening at around 5:40pm. The ABC7 copter crew had actually spotted the fire within the first minute or two of it forming (while they were trying to get in position to cover the Palisades fire after refueling), and (ABC and NBC) broadcast the first hour of the fire's growth (and provided live updates on new flare-ups). They may well have saved Hollywood from burning down.
Render is another good option. I too prefer Fly for my toy apps, but it has a little bit more of a learning curve than Render.
Does it operate by translating your higher level AI methods into lower level Playwright methods, and if so is it possible to debug the actual methods those methods were translated to?

Also is there some level of deterministic behavior here or might every test run result in a different underlying command if your wording isn’t precise enough?
Would it be crazy to suggest scaling the speed by the time taken to calculate the previous tick (moving average?) to make the dt number a consistent irl rate? Say the user sets it to 8h and their computer can run at 30tps, then set the per-tick rate to 8h/30; if their computer can run at 60tps then set the rate to 8h/60, etc.
I believe that it’s defined as the size of ω₁, the set of wellorderings of the natural numbers. I don’t think there’s any real sense in which that’s less of a concrete set than the power set of the natural numbers, even if it’s harder to picture.
My understanding of this Stanford research group collection is that it is all the ads (or all they are able to find) - I don't think they were only collecting ads from women's magazines.

If this ad campaign was mostly run in women's magazines, that supports the same hypothesis - presumably camel was running a different message to advertise toward men.

But I'm not actually able to tell from the pictures which magazine the ad ran in - am I missing that somewhere?
David Crosby of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young was quoted as saying “It's hard to bullshit the ocean. It's not listening, you know what I mean.” True for wildfires under windy conditions as well. Probably the reason why the word “wildfire” in American English is used as a simile to refer to any fast, destructive, uncontrolled phenomenon, appearing back when those earlier generations lived though them without modern firefighting tech. Your friends’ go-to attack and defense strategies, perhaps their entire realities, are just words…but wildfires have no online presence and can’t read. Umm, earthquakes don’t read either.

Side note: modern media has used exaggeration and hype to make a myriad of small or remote things sound scary. Wildfires are actually scary…what words do we use to describe the clear and present threat of death within minutes when the media has described minor inconveniences as “horrors” and “catastrophes”? People today should refamiliarize themselves with the story of the “boy who cried wolf”.
My former institution tried that for a few years - nobody actually obeyed it, but at the time I went there, they still made you pay a separate registration fee on arrival each year for internet access in the dorms, so they didn't put in wireless APs there when they covered the campus, and IIRC they tried to use Cisco's "kill nearby APs that aren't ours" setting before the FCC pointed out that would get them shoved in a locker.

Nobody actually got punished, that I recall, for bringing a wireless router, but that was the nominal policy for a number of years before someone successfully got it into the annual tuition rollup so it stopped being necessary.

To my recollection from when I left the school years after that, though, there still wasn't campus wifi reliably accessible in the dorms. (Of course, half of them also didn't have reliable air conditioning in muggy humid summers and would blow breakers if you tried putting window units in, so...priorities.)
Of course they'll hire prompt engineers and agent engineers.
> That said, most people would probably prefer if no animals were killed at all. Once cultured meat starts producing at the required scale, industry farming will probably end very quickly.

Most people can only afford cheap food, which means after the novelty period, regular meat will be something reserved for only the very wealthy.
All of these issues are kind of solved by uv. It took the Python community a long time to realize that Python isn’t a great language for writing Python tooling. uv solves the bootstrapping problem, and its resolver is infinitely faster than poetry’s or pipx’s. It’s hard to recommend anything else these days.
Wait, so the project is bad, but also they want you to re-create it for them for free else they won't let you register? This is some insane chicanery. I agree with the many comments here about getting legal advice.
Boxes.py for Laser Cut Boxes
A $200 6 inch / 150mm reflector with the eyepiece on the side is a decent backyard starter scope. You can see the moons of Jupiter, Saturn's rings, the crescent shape of Venus, and nebulas. Ask your local library about the local astronomy club. Someone may have a >200mm scope.
This library's eve::soa_vector is the first attempt I've seen at dealing with the "SOA problem," which is that if you write good, parallel-friendly code, all your types go to hell and never come back because the language can't express concepts like "my object is made from element 7 of each of these 6 pointers." Instead you write really FORTRAN-looking array processing code with no types or methods in sight.

Does anyone know of other libraries that help a C++ programmer deal with struct-of-arrays?
Yeah, but then you have to use onedrive…
I have experience working with the Salesforce platform via the “Power of Us” program where nonprofits can get a discount and some free user licenses. It is interesting how much the platform has changed from the perspective of an “Admin”. I have frequently heard from others that compared to the past, it is much more difficult to for a staffer to implement it, especially if it’s not their primary role or they don’t have a technical background. Apparently there are failed implementations at for-profit customers too which sounds super odd considering how expensive it all is and the consulting partner ecosystem.

Right, I think I see this better now. Because the market(s) I was exposed to (UK & OZ) tend to variable rate mortgage as normal, we don't have this strong tie to a long lived fix for the whole of the asset: people get 5 or 10 year fix if they are lucky, at a good rate and if rates are high they take a short fix as a hedge and then look to refinance variable when things drop. It's just a different kind of market.

Probably, the lifetime of debt at known rate drives a kind of derivative investment which isn't so common in my lived experience. We do have broken housing models, maybe some of our choices feed the problem. But our problems aren't the same as US problems.
Back in my ancestral village the practice was to let cow nurse her calf and get the remaining for the owner's family. This kinda ensured co-existence. The modern dairy industry has all evil practices baked into its operations. It is the thing that keeps me from going vegetarian. Even with going off meat, I would still harm the livestock by consuming dairy. A lot of vegetarians (at least those who virtue signal) do not understand this.
> I once changed my schedule for a month to sleeping 4 hours, waking for 4, sleeping 4, and then waking for 12.

That's pretty common for crew on yachts. I'd do that when racing or cruising ocean going sailboats. The crew gets split into 3rds, and everybody gets to do a 4 hour night watch. (For racing for me, that'd usually be only for a few days or a week tops. I twice spent ~6weeks on that schedule cruising the Great Barrier Reef.)

> Another counterargument is: pets. Somehow all meat eaters gasp on the idea of eating their pet, so they are not morally okay to eat an animal (as you claimed).

You seem to think humans are rational if-this-then-that machines but we're perfectly irrational enough to hold two dissenting views at the same time very closely. It doesn't prove much that people like their pets, serial killers also like their own families.
DIY it. Our dryer stopped heating, so I popped the screws off and it turns out the heating coil had burned out. Like $20 on Amazon. Our kitchen sink's faucet cracked and started leaking down the hose into the cabinet below so I bought a new one at Lowe's for like $20. Our oven stopped heating and the clock area where the control circuit is located kept clicking so I gave it a good smack like the primate I am. Free.

Considering the spam message could be written better using AI I don’t really see how a bad summary makes that much worse. Spammers can make their messages better before they were sent using AI. If you think your mom is at risk maybe that’s the issue that needs to be solved separately.

Thanks! I’ll take a look at quadlet.

I find that I tend to package one-off tasks as containers as well. For example, create database tables and users. Compose supports these sort of things. Ansible actually makes it easy to use and block on container tasks that you don’t detach.

I’m not interested in running kubernetes, even locally.
It’s sad they are so far off mission these days.

On the one hand, about 8% of their students are from Palestine. On the other, they’ve repeatedly retaliated against students and faculty members for protesting and making anti-genocide statements, and the university is on Boycott Divest Sanction lists.

Where exactly did I say you should run a deficit? The words that I said were “wide ranging governmental policy.” I was thinking of examples like the minimum wage, where people often try to use econ 101 reasoning to definitively prove that raising the minimum wage must produce significant unemployment, when the real world literature turns out extremely muddy and contentious, ie the effect is much less than expected for a variety of complicated reasons that a supply and demand curve do not capture.

"Trivial personal users moved to free alternatives ages ago"

Of all the things that didn't happen, this didn't happen the most.
That's what bothers me the most about this. The reason this is even an issue in the first place is because universities are aren't adequately providing what the students want.

So you want to study, say, engineering.

First you have to apply and get admitted to the university, and many people aren't admitted. The acceptance rate I can find for UW is 54% in-state, 46% out of state.

Then the university tells you that if you want to study engineering, you have to study a lot of other non-engineering things it feels like you should study. All of which are pretty costly and time consuming.

You might have to take courses in things you already know, because there are few courses you can test out of and the universities limit how many credits it can bring over.

Then on top of this, the universities don't provide anywhere near enough adequate quality classes for students, which is the whole reason why there's this level of demand in the first place.

Not only do they not provide enough, they know they don't provide enough, so their response is since it's "really competitive" they need to be "really strict about making sure that no one had an edge over anyone else." It's not about making sure students needs are being met, even for classes that the university is forcing on them. It's about restricting students, so that they suffer a roughly equal amount from the university's failures.

The attitude of the universities seems to be that since they're the only game in town, students have to suffer through all of this. Imagine a system where students could take classes from anywhere they want, and then could get a degree just by passing assessments at the university. I imagine the number of people paying huge amounts of money for inadequate classes would plummet.
It’s really a different mindset shift. In react, you think about components — updating components and replacing one component with a new component. But in hotwire, you think about pages. First implement everything as full page transitions. Only after you get all your functionality working with full page transitions, then you do a pass back through it and ask: how can I minimize the amount that changed between the transition from this page to that page? “Oh, just wrap this part in a turbo frame or have this one controller action reply with a turbo stream in this one case.”

I don’t know if that’s helpful, but realizing that I needed to shift from thinking about components to pages was the a-ha when Hotwire all started making sense.

They literally advertise their AI thing under the pretense of how many people you can fire and how much money you will save.

Apparently their technology is simultaneously an AI that solves business problems as well as an AI that builds AIs that solves business problems
Yeah and the worst part is, nobody, not even quite serious vendors selling stuff with all sorts of bells and whistles, do any sort of benchmarking on all these various paramters. (That I’ve seen)

So even if people wanted to believe and buy so and so product, they have no way to substantively compare who is more honest.
> I think this misunderstands how the companies that have stayed in business for so long have done so. Excel is the software we all use every day because it kept adding more and more features, stealing the best ideas from new products that tried to innovate.

Not convinced. I think a lot of companies keep adding features because they don't know how to do anything else - adding new features is how managers get promoted, so it's what devs get rewarded for, so it keeps happening even as the RoI drops lower and lower (and in many cases eventually goes negative - but this is masked because the core idea was good enough then the product as a whole is still profitable). At "best" a bunch of esoteric features act as a de facto moat that can shut out the competition in a tickbox-feature-comparison, rather than being something that's actually adding value in day-to-day use.
AVX-512 is around a dozen different ISA extensions. AMD implemented the base AVX-512 and more with Zen 4. This was far more than Intel had implemented in skylake-X where their problems started. AMD added even more extensions with Zen 5, but they still do not have the full AVX-512 set of extensions implemented in a single CPU and neither does Intel. Intel never implemented every single AVX-512 extension in a single CPU:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVX-512#CPUs_with_AVX-512

It also took either 4 or 6 years for Intel to fix its downclocking issues, depending on whether you count Rocket Lake as fixing a problem that started in enterprise CPUs, or require Sapphire Rapids to have been released to consider the problem fixed:

Even the populated areas in the Palisades fire have roads that are remarkably poor. A lot of them are windy, with negligible visibility around corners, and are barely a single lane. I doubt that a fire truck can get through many of them easily even under ideal conditions.

Look, I'm not an accountant, if there's one here to correct me on this I'm keen to hear it. I can understand that it may be useful to associate customer support costs to accounts in some ways. It obviously impacts unit economics. But none of that is what COGS is about (again, marketing is a major factor in unit economics and not traditionally considered in COGS).

COGS is about me as a customer buying a widget, receiving a widget, and the seller having to have made me a widget. That's an incomplete view of a business, but incomplete views can still be very useful. Understanding customer support cost for example must be done over some time horizon, i.e. what's the 6 month post-purchase support cost, which means we don't know the cost for 6 months. COGS is known much faster.

As for whether it should include storage, or any other particular piece of technology, for a SaaS business, I guess that probably depends on the business. The important bit for accounting is the direct cost of providing the service. If you're renting out GPUs by the hour then clearly a GPU hour is a direct cost. If you're just hosting a web app and not selling any particular slice of infrastructure then that's probably not a direct cost. Fixed size plan storage is probably somewhere in the middle, although cloud storage is clearly a direct cost.

Still, my point is really that businesses should only use subscription pricing when there's ongoing COGS, because that's what people intuitively associate with ongoing value most of the time.
