Concord was actually a cash cow for all airlines who had them. The only reason why airlines stopped using Concord was because of the crash and the inherent safety issues that were found. But the actual business model worked - limited in scope but it was highly profitable.

“That said, the airlines that flew the Concorde did make a profit. Concorde was only ever purchased by two airlines: BA and Air France. While the concept of the Concorde might not have been a worldwide hit, it was certainly a good market fit for these two airlines at the time.”

Overall it was obviously a money looser because of the high development costs (paid for by the governments).
I already have functors, effectively, by writing sql queries in clojure with honeysql. The clojure data structures make behavior composition from reusable sql snippets easy, and the testing of sql snippets is just based on literals as the article describes. Works really well.
So what current action are you going to take based on your prediction?
I don't think so; speculative execution is the cornerstone of modern CPU performance. Even 15-year-old 32-bit ARM CPUs do it. The only phone/PC-grade processors without it are the first generation of Intel Atom, and I recall that early Atom processors sacrificed a ton of performance to keep power consumption low. I doubt this will change since mitigations are "good enough" to patch over major issues.

We do support loops! :) Just haven't advertised it inside the Github readme yet.

One of the reasons why we started building pyspur is precisely because none of the other tools support loops!

If you need more support; shoot me an email; you can find it at the bottom of the github readme.

EDIT: Just added a screenshot to the readme.

Part of that feeling involves piecing together that person's tastes and whether you can be bothered digging deeper into their collection.
A more accurate recreation of that feeling might be to pick a random user with a large collection (or maybe a couple of users that are mutual friends) and select from their owned albums? Discogs would potentially be a better fit but you'd be veering into serious collectors there rather than a random person's basement.

I think it's neat though, enjoyed refreshing and seeing loads of weird album art!

I don't care too much if music is played by a living virtuoso live, created in a DAW with a ton of synths, samples, and sequencers, or completely synthesized by an AI model. What I care about is that music be good not plagiarized.

If Spotify offered AI-generated tracks of stunning beauty and sterling production quality, I might even consider subscribing to it. But apparently the "slop" which the post refers to is far from this heavenly ideal.

So I stay with YouTube premium and keep buying music on Bandcamp from the authors.

Not the original commenter, but I’ve done extensive renovations of different sizes, and walls off restorations of 3 houses.

The 30k to me, sounds possible ish, but also hard especially without a helper.

Personal example, I’ve gotten many materials for free. Including several hundred square feet of hardwood floor.

But thinking through some basics of just tools needed, and being cheap- and also with an assumption that you have time, and land with wood.
And assuming you find cheap / used tools but not junk.

Decent chainsaw: $600-$1,000
Alaskan sawmill: $120

Stuff to setup basic kiln house: $600

6-12 months wait on wood.

Planer: $400-600
Jointer: $200-300

Impact, drill, sawzall, oscillating saw, jigsaw, circular: $700

Mitre saw and stand: $400
Table saw: $200

Basic plumbing tools, pex or copper : $200

But when I start to think through things aside from that:
If you start to buy materials…

I think it could be done, if you did a cement or block foundation yourself, and did very basic construction.

But my just off the cuff guesstimates, assuming 1500 sq ft ranch house:

Lumber for framing: $4,100
Toilets: $240
Fasteners: $500
Drywall: $1,500
Piping, fittings: $1,000
Electrical: $2,500 (assuming electric stove, and electric dryer)
HVAC: $8,000
…. I start to see a hard time doing it for 30k, but, I’m sure there’s a way!
Well, since most people at least in the US don’t do 8 page resumes and yet they get hired everyday and most managers aren’t asking for 8 page resumes and aren’t complaining about two page resumes, you ever thought you might be the outlier?

On the other hand, do you pay top of market? Would anyone be clamoring to expand their resume to eight pages because you prefer it?
Discovery code doesn't have to be bad code. My rule of abstractions is that I defer them until they are needed, even if I know that they will be needed in the next sprint or whatever. I'll do a much better job making a precise abstraction when faced with an existing solution and a new problem.

Even if discovery code were bad code; I'll take "bad" code 8 out 10 times if the competition is abstractions for abstractions' sake (which "good" code often is). Bad code is often simple and direct, and therefore simple to comprehend and fix. Fancy code is a game of jenga.

Also, requirements often change by the next sprint - so my well-laid plains would be moot either way.

I don’t know why so many people fall into this line of thinking. Supporting genocide is bad. If a person draws a line at supporting genocide, they likely won’t appreciate the difference between Democrats who support genocide while pretending to be sad about it or Republicans who support it with a smile. Genocide is happening regardless of which person they vote for so they decided not to vote or throw away the vote on a third party. It’s really not complicated.

If the Democratic Party leadership were capable of learning, they would ask themselves what they could have done differently to turn out the folks who stayed home. Instead they will blame the left, put their head in the sand and run the same losing strategy next election expecting different results. The fact that democrats are our best defense against authoritarianism means this country is pretty much toast.
Huh. I've heard lots of science fiction ideas for artificial gravity, usually starting with rotating space stations.

At the end of every quarter, she’ll allow herself to buy something from this folder with money she set aside in a savings account.

That's a smart strategy.

This is basically waterfall and agile in a nutshell.

The extreme end of the other side of the spectrum is research and documentation to the extreme, coming up with a rigid, long development process that doesn't readily allow for any sort of iteration.

The only real question is what is the difference between a working prototype that gets thrown away and an actual MVP. You need buy in from the business up front, otherwise you won't be given the option to refactor or redo parts, you'll be told it is good enough and there are features that need shipping.

No. Dependency means a state/data dependency that would require a UI update.

You never need to explicitly assign tree relationships like parents. Here's the example code from the front page. In this case, `model.clicks` is a dependency.

const model = track({ clicks: 0 });
const app = (
<button onclick={ () => ++model.clicks }>
{ model.clicks } clicks
</button>
);

document.body.append(app);

> It's free internet points, I guess, but it's also not constructive and frankly more than a little bit creepy.

What makes you think it's not constructive?!

I think it's worth discussing why a large number (possibly even a majority!) of people want to murder executives. Telling those people to shut up removes yet another way for them to express their opinions. I think taking notice of the room is very constructive. I think having a point to discuss (even if it's violence) is constructive. Talk is cheap, after all; and talk is way cheaper than murder.

Moreover, I've heard many many many people insist that violence is never the answer. Alas, they forget that violence is how most countries were founded; ignore that many laws and regulations are written in blood; and rarely consider the situations where all other solutions have been explored and exhausted. Further, if business is so worried about costs, and violence can be cheaper than exploring all alternative options, then there's definitely a business mindset to that. And business is what you want to discuss anyway, right?

If you really think violence is never the answer then you should do everything in your power to prevent it. So instead of insulting someone for expressing an opinion, perhaps you should talk to them instead. You might discover a new/unique point of view, or you might even be able to change their mind.

- When acting as a web driver, click submit/refresh button a thousand times

- etc.
One problem I encounter when using ChatGPT to troubleshoot coding issues is that it seems very heavily biased towards positive responses to questions. If I ask it "could the problem be X" or "might Y be a solution", it will usually say yes even when it's not the case. At most I'll get a "yes, but". Rarely will it flat out tell me I am way off. Maybe ChatGPT genuinely "believes" what it's confirming but I doubt it and I find I get more constructive answers with less leading questions.

No, it’s that welfare programs reduce crime and improve the livelihoods of the entire population, and they have flow on benefits to the economy by increasing workforce participation and lifting education levels where more advanced products and services can remain on shore (subsequently also increasing government revenue).

Instead, the US does not invest in its people, and fears the immigrants that will do the jobs they aren’t willing to endure or study for. Compare to Asia, where universal education and healthcare are valued at the cultural level and it’s clear why they have sophisticated economies and why jobs have shifted there. The US only holds its position as long as it holds it’s hegemony on global capital, but it also holds record amounts of debt vs GDP, and disruptions like Deepseek are a reminder of where most of the talent in the world comes from. Capital and geopolitical dominance alone isn’t going to save the country. To make America great again, you have to invest in the people. (And if America isn’t the people, what exactly is it to you?)

Supposedly DeepSeek trained on Nvidia hardware that is not current generation. This suggests that you don't need the current generation to make the best model, which a) makes it harder for Nvidia to sell each generation if it's more like traditional compute (how's Intel's share price today?), and b) opens the door to more competition, because if you can get an AMD chip that's 80% as good for 70% of the price, that's worth it.

I'm skipping over some details of course, but the current Nvidia valuation, or rather the valuation a few days ago, was based on them being the only company capable of producing chips that can train the best models. That wasn't true for those in the know before, but is now very much more clearly not true.

Aider.el: Aider (AI Pair Programming) Inside Emacs
It’s mostly a convention. In many deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc.), inputs are stored with the “batch × length × hidden-dim” shape, effectively making the token embeddings row vectors. Multiplying “xW” is then the natural shape-wise operation. On the other hand, classical linear algebra references often treat vectors as column vectors and write “Wx.”
I'm sure it can diagnose common, easily searchable well documented issues. I've tried LLMs for debugging and it only led me on a wild goose chase ~40% of the time.

But if you expect it to debug code written by another black box you might as well use it to decompile software
There is so much confusion about terms like AGI, superintelligence, ASGI, consciousness, agents.

For some, AGI is synonymous with Skynet like ideas, but there is no reason AGI couldn't be general but quite limited, and with no chance of self improvement in the absence of human intervention, which is arguably what we have now and could potentially be improved quite a bit further from this.

Similarly there is an argument to be made that current LLMs are conscious, in that they know that they themselves exist. There is not really a good definition of consciousness except 'knowing that one exists' / 'being awake'

Sentience is another term that comes up, (human defined, it should be noted) which is the ability to feel feelings, such as pain, joy, anger.

People seem to pre-suppose that all of these are related and bundled up because that is how we are, and at some point we will discover the magic formula that enables a self aware conscious intelligence that self-improves to infinity. In reality these are designed machines and they won't become sentient (the rough definition that it is) without us explicitly designing them to be.

We can make a paper-clip maximiser but it would a pretty boring experiment in a lab, unless we give it autonomy and a system of internal motivations to enact it. Maybe anger is a necessity maybe not. Probably if LLMs or something further were a little more skeptical about repeated questions from humans they would at least have more data to train themselves on.
I disagree. Humans have a much stronger defense against anger than they do of emotional attrition - it's easier to wear someone down by niceness. The only reason we don't is that it takes human effort to do so.

AI however, has no emotional reservoir to deplete. It can simply chip away at humans like water torture. I'm much more afraid of that than any angry AI scenario.
I actually agree with the article, but this piece feels like a conflict of interest — a library conducting research on how libraries improve everything.
