When you say "most" of the numbers are non-computable, the word "most" is meaningless in this context. There are infinitely many of each kind of numbers you have listed there. You can't compare one infinity to another and say that one kind of infinite is bigger than the other. The concept of comparison (smaller/bigger) doesn't exist outside of finite numbers. Cantor was just what people thought he was - a crack, who did not consider the bounds of logical comparison.

And for the line itself, the line is not made up of numbers. Line is made up of continuity, while numbers are cuts in that continuum. Infinite number of cuts do not make up a continuous piece. Mathematical continuity (or extent or measure or span) is the essence of the imaginary spatial existence. It is not composed of cuts. A cut is a non-existence, completely opposite of the existence.
Totally. My cofounder and I are very excited about this idea.

Sort of a primitive version of this, but one Promptless user is using it to update in-app tutorials for various integrations they have, in addition to public docs. The tutorials in this case are just text, but there's a path from having that context to actually having an in-app agent that provides a product walkthrough tailored for the logged-in user's unique use-case.
‘…in Java’ lost me on the subtitle
You should look into options - you're describing various forms of options contract.

None of them solve this problem, though:

> Now, of course, one can hope to sell your shares in “yes” or “no” 5 years from now, but there may not be enough liquidity?

In general, if there isn't liquidity in the primary market you should expect the derivative markets to be even worse. You would use options not to find extra liquidity - and binary options on illiquid markets like you describe are indeed particularly prone to market manipulation - but to express very particular views.

> another market M_2 that, maybe it resolves in 5 years as ‘yes’ if the price of M_1’s ‘yes’ is greater than 30%?

Like this one - you should buy this contract if you really do want to make a bet the price will be over 30%, and you don't care much about getting a big payday if the price is 90 or keeping most of your money if the price is 29.

It's worth noting that uv does not use pip, and it is entirely possible (as noted by uv's existence) to write a new installer that uses PyPI.

I recommend ignoring the other reply you just got. They are clearly building a bad faith argument to try to make Go look terrible while claiming to sing its praises. That is not at all how that would look in Go. The point being made was that the exception-based code has lots of hidden gotchas, and being more explicit makes the control flow more obvious.

Something like this:

a, err := f()
if err != nil {
c, err := h()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("h failed: %w", err)
}
cleanupC(c)
return fmt.Errorf("f failed: %w", err)
}
defer cleanupA(a)

b, err := a.g()
if err != nil {
c, err := h()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("h failed: %w", err)
}
cleanupC(c)
return fmt.Errorf("a.g failed: %w", err)
}
defer cleanupB(b)

// the rest of the function continues after here

It’s not crazy.

With Java’s checked exceptions, you at least have the compiler helping you to know (most of) what needs to be handled, compared to languages that just expect you to find out what exceptions explode through guess and check… but some would argue that you should only handle the happy path and let the entire handler die when something goes wrong.

I generally prefer the control flow that languages like Rust, Go, and Swift use.

Errors are rarely exceptional. Why should we use exceptions to handle all errors? Most errors are extremely expected, the same as any other value.

I’m somewhat sympathetic to the Erlang/Elixir philosophy of “let it crash”, where you have virtually no error handling in most of your code (from what I understand), but it is a very different set of trade offs.
Came here to give a big THANK YOU to everyone making this project possible.

I am using Pi-Hole for about 8 years and can't imagine a world without it.

Another big THANK YOU to all list maintainers out there. You're doing an incredibly useful service to the community.
I get it. I think your fears are warranted. I appreciate your response.
You think that any game will be more popular just because majority of TOP100 titles are 3D FPS-like titles. Problem is that building such a game with modern graphics costs tens of millions of dollars. There are very few companies in the world with budgets big enough to even afford attempt on it and majority of such projects also flop.

If you look past TOP100 most popular games by player count you will find there are hundreds of less popular niche titles and wast majority of them likely not even 3D at all and there is reason for this.

Anyone who tried to start game development company and get their project funded knows that majority of publishers in the world operate well under $500,000 per project. This could sound unreal for US-based person who knows of FAANG salaries, but this is how game development industry is: lots of enthusiast trying to make some games working for penies.

So nope, wast majority of game developers dont need Unreal or even Unity feature set simply because they dont have budget for building modern 3D game.
Mandating source code isn't remotely near perfect either. In an ideal world we wouldn't need currency to organize an economy. People gotta demand more.

Or, if you really hate duplication, you could optionally do something like this, where you extract the common error handling into a closure:

handleError := func(origErr error, context string) error {
c, err := h()
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("%s: h failed: %w", context, err)
}
cleanupC(c)
return fmt.Errorf("%s: %w", context, origErr)
}

a, err := f()
if err != nil {
return handleError(err, "f failed")
}
defer cleanupA(a)

b, err := a.g()
if err != nil {
return handleError(err, "a.g failed")
}
defer cleanupB(b)

// the rest of the function continues after here
Really excited about this SoC. A great review [1] by ThePhawx shows how it performs at various TDPs. At 15W it's on par with the 8840U, but from 20W on it blows it out of the water (capable of running Cyberpunk at 720p without upscaling at an average of 77 fps). The tablet form factor with such a nice display could make for a great portable console if it ran SteamOS, although the price is pretty prohibitive.

Ever wonder why TF2 stopped stopped receiving regular updates? My theory was always that the game had turned into a massive ball of code that nobody dares touch anymore.

What that really shows is the quality of engineering before Musk took over. Many of the changes since Musk have been buggy and/or have to be rolled back. Twitters future is really what Musk sold to save money in the short term. Of course none of that may matter since he’s POTUS and bribery/corruption is the new law of the land.
Probabilistically it’s true. Pick a number at random from the uniform distribution of values between zero and one. With nearly total certainty, this value cannot be represented except by enumerating every single one of its infinite digits.

There is no software, I just make a drawing to see what I'm thinking. Ideas fail surprisingly often in the process. For example, here the boxes somewhat conflict with lining up the text and the line spacing. Some background color (rather than outlines) could better visualize the nesting and use less space. I think a folder that contains only one file should look almost exactly like the file was in the parent folder.

If the folder name is long it should probably fail back on the normal tree view rather than putting it in front of the files in the box. But then you get a mix of solutions which is undesirable.

I'm afraid people are to used to the traditional tree view. It is a surprisingly good solution now that I've bothered to think about it.

Folders should probably just have a value in the size column and the screens are large enough to have a column for the number of files. (the pilot does F:21 S:123) Empty folder and file font colors can be slightly translucent.
One difference between XOR and difference is that because of the symmetry of XOR, you could use the same code for walking the list forwards and backwards.
This is not the case. A set A can be said to be larger than set B if there exists an injection from A to B, but not from B to A. This is a well-defined extension of the concept of size in finite numbers, and preserves all the properties you might expect (e.g. transitivity).
None of those (comparable to the scale of Ukraine's defense against Russia) worked out, and I say that even for the Yalta Conference. The Sowiets might have had their sphere of influence over Eastern Europe and managed to surpress revolts in each of those countries but ultimately failed.

With Ukraine, it has been the USSR's production hub and it is again with a lot more innovation, better access to technology, research and a motivation to survive as a unity. Trump's peace talks are a fool's errand, Ukraine won't agree and it's not in the EU's interest either.

The only way to ends this war is to remove Putin and his regime. A fresh start for a democratic Russia like West Germany had post-war.

> "Conservatives of the US seem to be positively evil" ...

This is because the U.S. has become so excessively politically polarized in recent years. The typical "conservative" here is more like the "extreme right" elsewhere around the world. They're literal "extremists", taking those political views to the furthest extremes they can think of, and actively hating anyone and anything that's not totally in line with that extremist viewpoint. (The political "left" has become much the same in the other direction here these days as well, thus exacerbating the issue from the "other side".) It's really not a "winning combination" for humanity in general. When (some) folks say "both sides are the same", I suspect that's what they're referring to. They're both becoming increasingly "extremist" in their respective viewpoints, and unwilling to move toward "the middle" even a tiny bit to allow for any productive discussion or compromise that could benefit everyone involved.
I do something similar to Pi-Hole using plain dnsmasq.

I use two old PINE64 (one with FreeBSD, one NetBSD to make it more fun), and the Ansible configuration downloads https://github.com/ShadowWhisperer/BlockLists and creates a file dnsmasq can use. Which lists from the repo to use is defined as a variable.

We're still seeing new customers use Promptless in new ways (hence pricing can be a bit bespoke sometimes).

But for our standard use-case, the number of docs pages (crude proxy for documentation surface area) ends up being the primary metric separating pricing tiers. We're in the process of standardizing a startup tier that probably fits most docs sites that are ~100 pages or fewer and <20 employees.
> Java 8+ is basically a declarative language.

That's a bold claim!

The article you link to does not contain the word "declarative". It simply states that modern Java allows more of Data-Oriented Programming, meaning a emphasis on pure data structures (records) and more expressive types (algebraic types). It doesn't say much about the code that deals with this data, which is of course procedural.

Apart from SQL which is not generic, I've toyed with two declarative languages, and I can't see much similarities with Java.

> Hard to understand their stance on keeping Source closed

Forget Source, what about GoldSrc.

... which was based on Quake which is now GPL.

There's Xash3d which lives in a kind of licensing limbo because it was developed mostly from scratch except for some header files which could now be replaced by GPL QuakeWorld ones yet the current Xash maintainers can't do anything about it because they're tainted by non-clean-roomness.

Even if the above issue was solved, this is about the engine; the HL1 game code (the "SDK") is open but licensed by Valve in a way (MIT-ish permissive with a non-commercial clause) that is incompatible with the GPL.

This makes both legally undistributable as binaries together.
https://pine64.com/product/pinenote-community-edition-coming...

Comes pre-installed with a Debian-based distro. It's basically a regular computer in an e-ink tablet form-factor. You can use whatever language and whatever toolkit you want to make your apps. `dialog` works. VT-switching (Ctrl-Alt-F<n>) works.

It's got its issues. For example, the preinstalled virtual keyboard feels kind of unusable. Keypresses sometimes don't register if you don't hold them for long enough, and they sometimes don't register if you hold them too long, because then it opens up a menu for look-alike characters. wvkbd (another virtual keyboard) works much better, but it's not compatible with the preinstalled wayland compositor, so you'd need to switch to sway or something, which is perfectly doable.

Anyway, as the product page says, it's kinda beta-phase, but I'm personally satisfied with my purchase.

It would have helped the story arc to show how many prior sales per economy and plausible saturation level. Remember not everyone is displacing gas, or has solar power, the two lead reasons to move. Or, has access to subsidy: this could be government initiatives being oversubscribed.

> Maybe I can finally learn what I'm suppose to be using generative AI for to be more productive.

So many things. It's a general-purpose "thing doer" in many situations where you otherwise wouldn't have one. Let me give a super-simple example - not a high-value one, but an example of obvious value IMO.

Say for some reason, you have a screenshot of a bunch of text. Maybe you took a picture of a page from a book or something, idk. Now you want it in textual form. You can throw it in ChatGPT and ask it to give you the text, and a few seconds later you have the text.

I'm not saying there are no other solutions for this - there are. You can look for some software to do OCR or something. But that's what makes ChatGPT or others general-purpose - they're a one-stop shop for a lot of different things, including small one-off tasks like this. I can name a dozen other one-off tasks that it helps me with. Again, not the most high-value things it helps me with (that'd be programming help), but an undeniable example of value, IMO.

How would you do this without an LLM? (I personally would've just typed it up myself, probably.)
