Yep and yep. Did it on two models and by myself — you know if you ask them to cite similar problems (and their sources) I’ll think you’ll quickly realize how derivative your question is in both question and solution. Given that you’re now accusing me of arguing in bad faith despite the fact I’ve listened to you repeat the same point with the only proof being “this question is a head scratcher for me; must be for everyone else therefore it proves that one must reason” makes me think you don’t actually want to discuss something; you think you can “prove” something and seem to be more interested in that. Given that I say go publish your paper about your impossible question and let the rest of the community review it if you feel like you need to prove something. So far the only thing you’ve proven to me is that you’re not interested in a good-faith discussion; just repeating your dogma and hoping someone concedes.

Also generalization is not always reasoning: I can make a generalization that is not reasoned; I can also make one that is poorly reasoned. Generalization is considered well-defined in regards to reasoning:

Your example still fails to actually demonstrate reasoning given its highly derivative nature, though.

The shop on the left, where is that dress? Inside or outside? The window to the left of the dress with the white rectangle outline is in front of the dress at the top of the picture and behind it at the bottom of the picture.

It’s almost adorable that these people still care about their reputations. These companies only exist because the state protects their racket. No one likes them and even conservatives in other countries cite the US healthcare system as something they do not want.

Wikipedia says his great-grandfather’s name was also Elon. Compelling as the other theory is, this seems much more plausible as the reason for his name.

> Their first child, Elon Reeve Musk, was born in 1971, named after Maye's grandfather J. Elon Haldeman, with the name Reeve after her maternal grandmother's maiden name.

The title is misleading, and the implication is directly contradicted:

"Contrary to claims, mostly on financial social media, the US stock market is not a Ponzi scheme, as the majority of large-cap companies are highly profitable."

The term "quasi-Ponzi scheme" is invented for the article:

"Next, we define a quasi-Ponzi scheme as an investment where participants are willing to pay for high multiples of earnings in anticipation of future returns."

Except that's not even slightly what a Ponzi scheme is. It's not "quasi". It doesn't depend on future investors. There is an underlying value.

All he's doing is giving a name to the existing idea of Net Present Value. You pay a higher price than the data justifies because you expect it to be worth more in the future.

He accurately identifies that that comes at a cost: it materializes now some of the value that would otherwise wait until later. That puts more money in the system and causes inflation. You can't just sit on your money; you have to invest just to remain in the same place.

Economists know that. That's why they seek to maintain a low but positive level of inflation. That encourages money to go to work, rather than sit there. The Net Present Value of cash is the same as its future value, which sounds great, but it means that nothing is getting created.

There are a lot of problems with the notion that this kind of innovation goes on indefinitely. People are seriously starting to worry that we're coming up against the limits. But that has nothing to do with fraud, or a quasi-fraud.
The 8awg would need a massive connector, else it will still melt/desolder.
I've been long user of JetBrains' products - and love them. I even use ReSharper in Visual Studio (which I still consider better IDE, but for Linux / Mac - JetBrains is my choice, and heck, sometimes even Rider/CLion/RustRover/GoLand on Windows too - especcially GoLand).

But... but... I've always wanted (and willing to pay) a single IDE with any plugin that works in it - not just so many different versions...

I'm a multiple programming language user - mostly C++, but also Python, Go, Rust, C#, etc.
It was a great show. Wish they had renewed it for a fifth season. The last one was excellent considering it wrapped up the Augments, the Klingons looking different in TOS, and many more arcs!

That would need similar LTS support for the databases too. Also if you are migrating the databases once in a decade is that really something where you want/need k8s? Why not run straight on the OS at that point?
> So the thing solving them will sometimes have to be able to reason quite well across large code bases

The codebase only describes what the software can do currently, never the why. And you can't reason without both. And the why is the primary vector of changes which may completely redefines the what. And even the what have many possible interpretations. The code is only one specific how. Going from the why, to the what, to a specific how is the core tenet of programming. Then you add concerns like performance, reliability, maintainability, security...

Once you have a mature codebase, outside of refactoring and new features, you mostly have to edit a few lines for each task. Finding the lines to work one requires careful investigation and you need to carefully test after that to ensure that no other operations have been affected. We already have good deterministic tools to help with that.

Trump put Elon on stage at rallies over and over, letting all of America know if you vote for Trump, he will hire Elon to run DOGE. They were as open about this as a campaign can possibly be. Then, America overwhelmingly voted to have exactly that. Period. End of story. Cry about it any way you want but this is what the people voted for, this is what the people want. Get over yourself. No one cares about your opinion but you. The people have spoken. Deal with it.

Yes. E-ink doesn't need electricity to show an image, it only uses small amounts of electricity to change the image. Technically, if it ran on batteries, you could pop in some batteries, change the advertisement image, and then take the batteries out and the image would stay like that permanently.

> I wanted a way to switch sides of the cards

Will add support for switching sides of the cards to the next release. My thought here is that once you have gotten the card correct _n_ times, you'll then will see the flipped english only side to reinforce memory recall. Albeit maybe this is better up to the user to change the mode.

I'm also playing around with another card type thats only voice and the user needs to type the answer.

> there were a bunch of translations that made me suspicious, especially translating Spanish future with English present.

There's an issue around single words vs the word in the examples. For example, "bill" in Spanish for the single card is "factura" when the examples are all using "cuenta". I'm working on improving this.

I'll run the output by a few native Spanish friends to ensure it's getting future tense correct.
From Prompt to Product: The Rise of AI-Powered Web App Builders
> The irony is that AI, as a replacement for an even average programmer, doesn’t work.

Yet.
Another lackluster article with a number of assertions with AI in the headline to drive clicks.

From the article...

> "Jobs are being eliminated within the IT function which are routine and mundane, such as reporting, clerical administration,” Janulaitis said. “As they start looking at AI, they’re also looking at reducing the number of programmers, systems designers, hoping that AI is going to be able to provide them some value and have a good rate of return.”

Hoping... - I think this is where "leaders" are showcasing their ignorance. They're being sold a bill of goods that, truly, doesn't exist at the levels they think it does.

Now, on the flip side, the first part of the paragraph above seems plausible. However, these mundane tasks have been able to have been automated for a long time. It's just that it wasn't en vogue.

Reducing the roles outlined will truly lead to shittier outcomes for these companies and I hope the ones that are diving head first end up paying the price as it showcases, not their efficiencies but their ignorance.

AI has a few great use cases. Replacing IT folks who are skilled and can think on their feet are not a prime target for AI.

Not a lot. Since they don’t need to because of writing. As far as we can tell non-literate societies put in massively more effort into preserving oral traditions.

Of course it’s debatable but there is some evidence that oral knowledge can be preserved for thousands of years.

Essentially: people are vastly overestimating AI ability and vastly underestimating HI ability.

Humans are supremely adaptable. That's what our defining attribute as a species is. As a group we can adapt to more or less any reality we find ourselves in.

People with less good minds will use whatever tools they have to cover up their inability until they're found out.
It's unfortunate there is so much cynicism and negativity in these comments. I understand many people here strongly dislike Meta but the actual article is awe inspiring to me. I didn't know how extensive and complicated the infrastructure underpinning the modern digital world was. Reading this article and seeing the sense of scale is mindblowing to me. It feels almost like a miracle and like magic. A "wonder of the world" in terms of the amount of effort and complexity.

Maybe the company in charge is bad in many ways but all of the things in the article are astounding to me.

I am not an engineer like many of you so maybe the article is old news to you guys but I couldn't help but say "wow".

I feel like if you took some old science fiction writers from back in the day and showed them this article, you would find sheer awe in their faces too.
I really like the trailing comma, where it's supported, for that it can drive the language formatter - e.g. with trailing comma typically each item on it's own line, otherwise not. I think Dart is doing this, and other languages.

Again, the argument for overall net value is not based on a single KPI, be it DAU, MAU or unproven/unsourced "utter global dominance". By focusing on 'dominance', instead of value, you're missing the whole point. You know who also had total communication service dominance (we call that "monopoly" actually) for a good chunk of the 20th century in the US? A little company called AT&T. Look them up and why they were split up. The difference being, at least AT&T was highly profitable at the time. But even if we took your argument as valid, haven't all the MBAs been telling us that unprofitable 'cost centers' should not exist, and should be extinquished, surely you must have heard that argument at some point? So why then are we allowing VC capital to provide a lifeline to some of those utterly unprofitable "businesses" indefinitely? The quotation marks around "businesses" because that's another axiom from business schools - you have a business once you start turning profit. Isn't the point for market to promote the winners and defer the losers? I am afraid the way AirBnB, Uber & co. operate looks a lot like a capitalist version of communist central planning commitees, when we still had independent and free press it used to be called "crony capitalism".

Man who threw away $750M in Bitcoin wants to buy the dump where it's buried
The best accounting I've seen of how much work people did historically were the mini-series that were aired on PBS a few years back: "Frontier House", "Colonial House", "Texas Ranch House", "1900 House", "The 1940s House", "The 1900 Island", "Prairie House", etc. Average modern families took up residence in a building of the times and had to use only the tools of the day to work as they did then. (Though they didn't have to grow their own food.)

Without exception, the work was backbreaking and unrelenting. Some of the moderns chose to quit rather than finish the month-long 'experiment'. Everyone came away with aspects of shell shock in realizing how hard life was back then for the average person, even just 70 years ago. It also became obvious that the lives of slaves or those working with only hand tools were that much harder still.

No, it's just insane to imagine that anyone in the past had easy lives. Nasty, brutish, and short, indubitably.

Right, but "no-code" implies something: programming without code. Excel is not that in any fashion. It's either programming with code or an ordinary spreadsheet application without code. You'd really have to stretch your definitions to consider it "no-code" in a way that wouldn't apply to pretty much any office application.
According to the article, the overall unemployment rate is 4%. So something is happening with IT jobs, not the economy. I call it bullshit that it's the AI, it's the outsourcing/remote jobs
> Electron, like the JVM is nice and cross-platform with no BS.

If we were talking in person I'd look at you like you had 2 heads now. In my bubble it is extremely en vogue to hate on Electron being a piece of bloated shit…

…but then again, I will agree that this is a piece of social signaling and would need some actual evaluation. There's probably some real problems with Electron that have caused people to start hating on it, but who knows how relevant those are. Trivial junk can easily snowball into social signals like this.
How often do you know that that far ahead? If someone asked me to guarantee that a service will be replaced in 4 years that'd be hard. Ask me about 12 years and it's basically impossible.

> I can say that finding real devs who have all those traits is not easy!

Sounds like some very high bar to meet, that's for sure!

> We typically have two days of interviews with them and we specifically talk about tech debt.

> Our job is to ask the right questions and ask to see the right things to get the goods. We get to look at code, Jira, roadmap docs, internal dev docs, test runner reports, monitoring and load testing dashboards, and so on.

Call me a skeptic but, given that scope, I have trouble believing that two days is sufficient to iron out what kinds of tech debt exist in an organization of any size that matters.
> This is just ... strangely done. The ball bearing factory was SKF's [3] in Gothenburg Sweden. Finnish girls come from Finland typically, so this part is just strange and glitchy.

Well it's a lot closer to visit Finland when you are already in Sweden than from the U.S. This was probably circa 1950 or earlier, so cheap jet travel didn't exist yet. Maybe they met up in Stockholm on weekends.
We should up that threshold until these companies start posting consistent losses, then ease up.

I tried researching this, but couldn't come up with an answer: if an insurance company pays doctors to review and dent claims, does that doctor salary count as "quality improvement activities", or administrative?
AI is a tool not a worker, you still need people to wield the hammer. Especially because hallucinations could seriously cost you.
Back when I was in the reserves I was hanging out with my Navajo buddy in a bar, both of us in uniform, when these two swastika wearing idiots walked in. Pretty amazed there wasn't a bar fight by the amount of shit I was talking. I just thought they wanted attention so was happy to oblige.

Thing is, I will die for their right to free speech but I don't have to like what they say nor quench my right to free speech. Plus, when you're walking around with an 82nd Airborne combat patch and a Combat Infantry Badge you get to talk a lot of shit.
You sound like you've never had an issue, and hey, congrats, but let's not pretend that there aren't plenty of horror stories and legitimate reasons to worry. And suppressing legitimate worry is a bad habit, particularly for folks who don't have white, male, and several other "default" identity markers in their profile.
Interesting:

"While Apple does waive the CTF for the first million installs of an app, this does not apply to app marketplaces themselves. This means every download of AltStore costs us €0.50, period. This is clearly unsustainable for a free app supported entirely by donations — especially considering we already have millions of users — and we’ve seen a lot of discussion hypothesizing how we could possibly afford this.

To us though, the answer is obvious…we can’t! So instead, we’re going to charge €1.50/year for AltStore PAL and pass the CTF onto our users."

So Apple's rules either require a deep pocketed free to play peddler like Epic, or push small independent stores into subscriptions.

This is still malicious compliance.

Not to mention that I never wanted "alternative stores" but sideloading... why would I have any store control what I install?
