I understand the frustration you feel when things you invested time and money don’t go the way you hoped but this is just how things are and this is also what makes the people that succeed so special.
The best advice I can give you to find what to do next, is to simply sit down cut all unmeaningful connections and stay with what matters for example your job, this might sound a bit strange but the best way to start doing something is by doing nothing just sit down and think.
There is no one here our anywhere that will be able to tell you what to do that’s a question only you can answer but I can give you some guidance, you have 2 paths to choose from related to a way of making a living of your projects:

1- Offer a service our product to the masses. This is the market where you offer something that more people are interested in, for example VPN’s but also this is the one with the most competition, and most of the times your competition will have a better product our better publicity. If you want to take this route you will need a very good business plan to convince other entities of funding your project.

2- Offer a specialized product our service to a small group. Let’s say you find a solution to a problem most people don’t face but you know the people who have this problem, this is the option I would recommend you take since there is much fewer competition and the people that face this problem will reach to you instead of you having to invest time and money into convincing someone into buying it.

I think I have over resumed what I wanted to say but yeah, my advice is you take some time off and when you find something you want to really put the effort into make sure is something that people will actually be willing to pay for. Speaking of this there is a high demand for people like you in other places on the internet that are more “under the radar” and are more that willing to pay someone that’s able to solve their problems. :)

Hope you have a nice day!

This article is amazing. It explains not just why DeepSeek is so successful, but really indicates that innovators elsewhere will be too: that extensive opportunities exist for improving transformers. Yet few companies do (not just China, but everywhere): incredible amounts are spent just replicating someone else's work with a fear of trying anything substantially different.

Look around! I'd say so! :)
It's absolutely a valid and serious answer? You asked for reasons, omitting two options, and they gave you a list of points for and against not including those two options. That's a good response, you don't need to agree with it, but I don't see how you can call it not serious?

I’m really curious what kind of activity someone could exhibit that would cause you to believe they could end democracy.

Genuinely. Because for me, it’s enough for someone to incite an insurrection, and to argue in front of the Supreme Court it should be legal for him to use the military to murder his political opponents. Why does that not read “wannabe dictator” to you?

Because I gotta say, if you’re wrong and he wants to tear down our democracy, the time to defend it was the election. Now we just have to deal with the fallout.

How much of this is about defending Israel from criticism of their genocide and how much of this is real? The platforms are full of hate speech, but they also don't actually care. Twitter in particular was engineeered in the past few years specifically to allow more hate speech.

I love ROS. There are setup files for stuff inside ROS (pathfinding etc) that I haven't enjoyed, and I've definitely struggled with things like keeping it all standardised with like dockerfiles, but the ROS itself? the concurrency is amazing. I constantly wish I had it on non-robotics projects...

as others have mentioned, it has scaling issues. But for getting things done on a base level, its super powerful. The fault-tolerance it allows has benefited our robots a lot - it's often possible even with severely degraded systems to manually guide one around.

I do agree with what others have said about how the best usages are often to not go too deep into the ecosystem and instead use its messaging and concurrency protocol in limited ways, and have a lot of your internal logic siloed, to avoid hardcore dependency. After all, the idea of this kind of system is to allow new nodes to listen to sensor data (coming in) and/or planning goals (going out) to be able to make their decisions. Not passing some kind of intermediate calculation to some other subsystem
I'm not saying JSX/TSX don't have a place, but calling them "old-school" is a bit... odd. I feel like it is only 5-6 years old.

To me old-school means at least a few generations old: ASP (classic (1996) or .Net (2002)), Rails (2004), Django (2005), PHP (1995), JSP (1999), ColdFusion (1995), etc.

Anything that is the current "standard" seems like it should be called "new-school."

It is generally believed by people who study nuclear strategy that this in fact does not work.

ROS is like the One Ring. Binds everything in the darkness but corrupts you into his dark slave slowly. It must be thrown away into the hot lava.
Technically yes. But what I mean is that, even in terms of the spirit of the law, the situation is a bit murky, because Congress effectively wrote a law that requires the executive to prosecute a specific company on a specific deadline.
> Who will take up that mantle once we're fully gone is an interesting question, I think China and India both could make a solid case for themselves

With the exception of the USSR, every superpower’s decline in history has involved a burst of violence. China or India won’t take over if America collapses because America collapsing (versus slow fading over lifetimes) almost guarantees nuclear war resetting the table.
It’s a black hole money-pit everywhere. There is no return on spending money for people who will never be productive again.

The only way that kind of wealth transfer works is with a growing proportion of workers, but that has long not been the case in many developed countries.

The solution for all these countries (even the US) is to dismantle all wealth transfer to old people. It might be the only way to incentivize production of families that raise productive children. Or tell old people to expect declining quality of life (faster than it already is).

The problem is that those are a really vague and metaphorical 4-5 lines so it's hard to argue against somebody projecting whatever the hell meaning they want on to it.

I'd argue that "agile" where I have done it and it worked well is at its core about tightening up OODA loops - with code (refactoring+tests+iterative improvements), with customer interaction (frequent interaction/experiment driven tests), with team organization (retros, adapting team processes).

Feedback loops are, however, not mentioned once in the philosophy and neither are any concrete examples of "agile" or "not agile".

Agile as a concept will stop being broken when people stop saying "to me, agile means X". Which will probably never happen - I suspect people will just stop talking about it one day and start using different terms for all the concrete steps that are sometimes filed under "agile" but which actually work.
Or stop calling one thing another when it isn’t.

I don't know about europe but 40 to 80usd for 15GB for 30 days in Mexico is completely crazy when you can get a physical telcel sim card with 25GB and unlimited data for whatsapp and all major social medias, which means you can easily go for the smaller 10GB (15usd) or 7GB (10usd) choice if the most you will transfer is on social medias and whatsapp.

One should prefer that they don't.

Hate speech, as we saw with the insane fire-storm over Sriram Krishnan's appointment, and the deep-seated hated with Hindus/Indians in the US, is actually a great breaker of the elite-controlled illusions.

The faster these break, the better.
Similar experience with PRUSA for me -- I had a MK3S+ (which I loved) and paid ~$250 for the upgrade to the MK3.5S. Very, very impressed, for a modest investment I now have the new color LCD, a good chunk of the MK4 features and the print speed is at least 2x improved (if not better, I haven't quantitatively measured it but it's noticeably faster).

I went for the 3.5 upgrade as the upgrade from 3S+ to 4 was almost as much as outright buying a new 4. I'm glad I did it this way because now I'm thinking of getting the CORE One and then I'll have 2 excellent printers.
Again, if you read Marx he claims that successful communism comes after capitalistic development. The communist party can take communism as an eventual goal instead of as a necessary truth right now, since the latter has always ended in disaster and the former puts off communism until later. The communist party is most definitely focused on communism as a goal, its goal is turn China to communism when its ready, China is not communist ATM.
This was clarified on Snopes; he was referring to groups such as fundamentalist Christians who rarely vote, urging them to come out this one time and vote. Not very eloquently worded, perhaps, but certainly his intent, as explained by spokespeople and by himself in subsequent interviews, was not to shut down voting.

Okay, thank you for confirming you have no answer.
No green lights, when the reds go out it is race start but there is a random delay after all reds lighting up and then going off.
You get what you ask for.

The Californian Ideology is either pro-corporate or corporate-naive. Either technology itself is deterministically going to democratize things (like the Internet was an auto-democratic force, they thought—or now AI is going to help liberate everyone, hah) and/or you just don’t need to worry about private interests.

But private (corporate) interests didn’t just come out of nowhere. The Internet was created by the US state (federal) sector and then handed over for commercialization around the Clinton era. Should anyone be surprised about the turn of events?

Now the author, just as naive as the rest, talks about reigning in corprorate interests by enacting laws. And who is gonna make the politicians do that? The rich control the government. Many of them are the tech-rich.

Biden said in his farewell address that he was worried about a rising Tech Robber Baron era. Yikes. Someone should have done something about that. Like the departing president, perhaps?[1]

All of this was mainly done by the rich. Not by nerds (because not all nerds are rich). But the less wealthy California nerds who bought into the Californian Ideology helped it along.

[1] It’s not that he did nothing. It’s that he did a half-spirited job of it. If he really meant and was motivated by his own words he would have done more.
> That cert is on the /client/ side, not in the printer. It has nothing to do with printer functionality, only with talking to the printer.

What do you mean, if my software can't talk to the printer then that affects printing functionality.

> but politically suicidal for any government that tried to implement it

Labour just got into government and literally the third bullet point in their manifesto is:

* Reform our planning rules to build the railways, roads, labs and 1.5 million homes we need and develop a new 10-year infrastructure strategy.

So i would hope it's not political suicide to follow through on that

Interestingly, the executive branch is still under Joe Biden at the moment.

TikTok content has changed in tone and tenor since President-Elect trump's policy reversal. Looks like he'll have ByteDance working for him like he did Russian fake news during his last regime.
Sorry to potentially pour oil into fire here, but I'm curious: did they really?

"Officially support" printing without internet connection?

Was this explicitly documented as a feature or did this just "happen to work" as you expected?

A lawsuit may have some leverage to find that something could have been "reasonably expected" to work in a certain way, but that's quite uncertain territory.

i.e. I would expect an Apple Watch to also work with Android Devices, but this was never officially supported by Apple and it's arguable whether it was reasonable for me to even expect this.
You can gain a lot of intuition for system behavior via particle models like this and their many, many other interactives.

I also recommend looking at their library of learning resources that put these interactives into context: https://learn.concord.org/collections
Yeah it's very interesting... It appears to lead itself astray: the way it looks at several situational characteristics, gives each a "throw-away" example, only to then mushing all those examples together to make a joke seems to be it's downfall in this particular case.

Also I can't help but think that if it had written out a few example jokes about animals rather than simply "thinking" about jokes, it might have come up with something better

> Isn't JLR in Solihull? That's two hours from London.

Not 100% sure, I'm from the middle of nowhere, sorry, Derby - where Rolls Royce is primarily based. I know there's peak-time, non-stop, trains between London/Derby that take about an hour. I know this because when I got my first job in London, I still hadn't found a place to stay, so I was commuting from Derby to London every day. And when I finally moved to London it took me almost as long to get to work even though I was living in the city!

I just assumed with JLR being around Birmingham that travel to/from London would be about the same (because Birmingham is very close to Derby).

EDIT: Just checked with trainline.com, there's several morning trains from London Euston to Birmingham (New Street) that take 1hr 17mins.
Regarding the printer comment, I've bought HP printers that have stickers covering the USB port with a "NO" symbol, and removing the sticker the port works just fine. I'd like to think there is an engineer in the belly of the beast ensuring this stuff slips past the marketing team.

Society doesn’t exist according to the extreme version of liberal ideology. We’re all just individuals with some negative freedoms. So yes, accoarding to that mindset nothing is wrong. Because we can all just individually opt out of these networks.

No problem at all.
Yes, but the two are related because increasing earned income tax and other taxes to fund non workers on people who do work sap the incentive to work in a manner that increases productivity (either via working more hours or working on hard problems).
This is great, hate speech is all the opinions I don't like, right?
I feel like you ignored the many qualifiers in the parent comment. I read it as painting broad generalizations rather than stating universal facts about all twitter users.

yeah. Celestial navigation is a pretty standard thing to study if you're planning on taking up sailing or learning about satellite positioning. Celestial navigation with drones raises more interesting possibilities, but I don't think defence of key strategic assets against drones relies on the possibility it might be too difficult a problem to solve, and there are commercial solutions in the "drone navigation for GNSS denied environments" space. Don't even think the people that jailbreak consumer drones specifically to remove the geofences that prevent them flying near restricted areas get into trouble, at least not until someone spots them flying at the end of a runway or outside a military base.

Contrary to what "tariff man" has claimed for years, tariffs are actually paid by US importers and ultimately by US consumers --- not by China.

The USA has no way to collect tariffs from China, just like China has no way to collect tariffs from the USA. The only people these governments can collect these taxes (aka tariffs) from is their own businesses and citizens.

The fact that this brazen lie not only persevered but actually worked so well is an indictment of the American voter's intellect.

We did stand up, that was the entire 2024 campaign. We really truly believe the guy who incited the insurrection in 2021 that ended the history of peaceful democratic transitions of power in the USA is going to do more of the same damage to democratic institutions in 2025. Given what happened on 1/6 I don’t know why you see that worry as hollow.
This is an excellent summary of the beginning of the end of two great empires. The Arabs would destroy the Persian Sassanids completely. The Byzantine with the loss of their bread basket of Egypt and Africa would be permanently weakened. The Crusades of later centuries did not help the Byzantines. The Fourth Crusade where the Crusaders sacked Constantinople left the empire even weaker. The Fourth Crusade is why many of the treasures of Constantinople were brought to Venice.

And, it's a bit older than that: the SR-71's derived from ICBM targeting systems,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missile_guidance#Astro-inertia... ("the latter of which was adapted for the SR-71...")

(Actually the very first one, in that history, was an intercontinental cruise missile—a jet weapon that slightly predated (~1958) rockets powerful enough to cross oceans. ICBM's came a bit later. I'm pretty sure the first generation were pure-analog circuits, but I forgot where I read about that).
I've come to understand 'naning things' to be glossing over many actual difficult things: knowing the concepts you're working with, explicitly, choosing where and when to use abstractions, knowing CS foundational terminology, and maybe the most common not following single responsibility principle. There's many others I'm sure. Failure to name a thing indicates you may not actually know what you're doing or why.

TL:DR "naming things" itself was the joke all along.
