In my honest opinion, it's not a good idea to mix two programming languages into the same monolithic codebase side by side. It would be less problematic if used for different purposes or layers, like frontend and backend. But we know it still creates unpleasant friction when you have to work on both sides on your own. Otherwise, it creates technical AND communication friction if the C devs and Rust devs work separately. As someone who works with embedded systems at times, I can imagine the pain that you have to set up two toolchains (with vastly different build infra beasts like GNU Make and Cargo) and the prolonged build time of CI and edit-compile-run debugging cycles given the notorious slow compile time of the Rust/LLVM compiler.
The odds might be low, but they are substantially larger than zero. Most people I know are preparing in some way by offshoring what money they have, researching places of refuge, etc.

The path to violence is:
* imposition of punitive tariffs by Trump
* Retaliation which escalates to energy export tariffs.
* At some point Canada shuts off electricity transfer to the US and restricts water transfer, which shuts down the eastern seaboard. Trump declares this an act of war.

There is still the reputational risk of using selection methods with widely known disparate outcomes. Other methods also have disparate outcomes, but most of the criticism is directed at IQ tests. I've heard "IQ tests are culturally biased" but never "work sample tests are culturally biased", and I'll guess that's the experience of most hiring managers too.
I've read that bit differently: they are unable to get that "regular" job that would put them into the "top 20% of income earners", and that's why they feel like a loser.

They don't feel like a loser for their entrepreneurship career even if it never netted the retirement money before the age of 30.
What about Toolhouse and/or composeio?
As I read I was thinking this article had been AI-generated. It's too empty, a lot of descriptions of the same images it had just shown, and then some commentary about how they are fake, then repeat and repeat again.

Now I'm confused, was it AI-generated or not?
Looks like the Hailo m.2 accelerator costs $190 whereas I bought a coral accelerator for $55. So not exactly comparable.
Especially in Asia, where it's not exactly a primary language for anyone. It's funny that you'll be in a room with Chinese, Egyptians, Pakistanis, Indonesians, Ukranians, and everyone will speak English. I once saw a documentary which went deep into Borneo, via rivers, to a tribe that didn't wear shirts, and they spoke fluent English too.

Yeah, that sounds hypercapitalist. At least I hope those engineers make enough money to retire when they burn out.
It's absolutely not clear that that's true, and "financial efficiency" doesn't make sense either in isolation.

You could only make the argument that what they're doing is "more efficient" if we're getting the same output while spending less money, but since they're cutting entire programs then I don't think it's fair to assume at all that we are getting the same output. It is absolutely not implied that spending less money and reducing the federal workforce is going to be "more efficient" by literally any definition of the term that I can think of.

And it's really odd the DOGE hasn't found any "inefficiency" in the contracts that Tesla and SpaceX has with the federal government. I would personally think that spending $400 million on a bunch of famously unreliable cars pretending that they're tanks is a waste of money, but I'm not the richest person alive, so what do I know.

> who may have some conscious experience

Does it matter if they are conscious? Is it the ok to kill a person in a coma if you know he will probably wake up in 9 months? Is it okay to kill someone while they are sleeping? I don't see where consciousness comes into it.

> But similarly to 35-year-olds vs. 75-year-olds we only in extremis compare...

I think you missed what I was trying to convey here, but that was totally my fault. I wasn't clear and I'm too lazy to make a graph to try and explain what I meant. It doesn't really matter though because I in essence agree with you on this point.

> I'd respectfully disagree and continue to claim that many people are still attempting the reproductive and child-rearing subjugation of women in the world today.

I'm sorry I don't understand this sentence. Did you accidentally omit a word?

> neither fetuses nor women consented to being embodied in a universe where these biological realities exist

Yeah, sure! That's life though. I didn't consent to being mortal and having to also watch people I love die. I also didn't consent to being able to listen to beautiful music or experience the thrill of creating. I am placed firmly in a universe I have no control over and I can only be grateful even though it is not even nearly all good. Women are much, _much_ more selective for this exact reason - it is natural. A woman has a huge and heavy responsibility to choose a man who's problem it indeed will be to also look after the baby. She also reaps much greater rewards by experiencing a bond that a man can simply never experience.

The problem of abortion is linked to a society where relationships have been de-stabilized. The cure is not to kill the babies of mothers who are misled and left behind in the wreckage of broken and casual relationships, but instead to foster healthier ways of relating with each other. Society is unfortunately a bit sick at the moment and in recent decades, horrible symptoms like abortion, which were always taboo, are being brought to the surface.

I think I saw this book advertised on the (new york) subway! Pretty sure it was this one... was around last summer I think. Made a mental note into looking further, then never did. The poster was cool.
After all the Ada threads last week, I read their pdf @ Adacore's site (the Ada for Java/C++ Programmers version), and there were a lot of surprises.

A few that I found: logical operators do not short-circuit (so both sides of an or will execute even if the left side is true); it has two types of subprograms (subroutines and functions; the former returns no value while the latter returns a value); and you can't fall through on the Ada equivalent of a switch statement (select..case).

There are a few other oddities in there; no multiple inheritance (but it offers interfaces, so this type of design could just use composition).

I only perused the SPARK pdf (sorry, the first was 75 pages; I wasn't reading another 150), but it seemed to have several restrictions on working with bare memory.

On the plus side, Ada has explicit invariants that must be true on function entry & exit (can be violated within), pre- and post- conditions for subprograms, which can catch problems during the editing phase, and it offers sum types and product types.

Another downside is it's wordy. I won't go so far as to say verbose, but compared to a language like Rust, or even the C-like languages, there's not much shorthand.

It has a lot of the features we consider modern, but it doesn't look modern.
I think plenty do. I'm a startup guy and corporates have been asking when I want to coast for a while. Personally, I'd rather work hard writing code than writing performance reviews and such.
I worked at two startups before realizing that they weren’t what I wanted out of life. Work is important to me, but so is life. I was duped into this vision of entrepreneurship and making it big in startups. While every startup founder likes to spin the story of wanting to be a unicorn, in practice, few do. I happened to work at ones with an insane workload and a less-than-survivable payout.

I interviewed like crazy and landed a position at one of those well-known companies. Large companies have their fair share of problems, but it suits my lifestyle. I do my work diligently and then clock out. It’s liberating to know that if I don’t respond to a pager, the world isn’t going to end and some third-grade CEO/CTO won’t scream in my face.

Different people want different things out of life, and I made a vow never to join a startup or scale-up with fewer than a thousand employees.

You've basically summed up most social media users habits and profiles.
The whole point is a highly competent government is one the does have an appropriate level of regulation. Regulation like disallowing non-competes. I think that there is plenty of good evidence that the whole reason Silicon Valley is in California is their long (and historically unusual stance among US states) history of disallowing non-competes.

This is why all this DOGE shit is so frustrating to a lot of people. I don't disagree that there is government waste, or that there are regulations that should be scrapped. But people don't realize how much success in this country is due to having largely fair and functioning institutions. That's all getting chucked out the window now.

Perhaps that's why Chinese chicken eggs cost:

3,062 CNY/T -> $422/tonne -> $0.287/dozen @ 24 oz / dozen large eggs [1]

while US eggs are still nonsensically priced at $8.03 / dozen. [2] Like worldwide logistics doesn't even exist. Seems like a market discrepancy when there's several 100 to 1000 cargo ships transiting the Pacific currently that might be loaded with 3,062 CNY/T ($0.29/dozen) eggs.

My understanding: there actually is some difference in some cases (not saying it's true for McNuggets). But basically, a lot of time, they need special processing techniques to remove the meat close to the bone and this type of meat is then used in products that require ground meat (nuggets, meatballs, sausages, hot dogs).

Or even Toronto. I was surprised to learn Suits was filmed there, despite depicting NYC.

That said, I'm not sure Netflix cares from that regard. They've been pushing me increasingly foreign content that I don't particularly care for, because it's usually dubbed horribly or not at all.

I'm of course not against it existing in their library, but I'd have thought their recommendation engine would realize I'm not at all interested in it by now.

> There are better books I would probably recommend

I'm curious what you'd recommend.

For what it's worth my goal was to compile to machine code. Anything less would have seemed insufficient. Later I got Appel's "Modern Compiler Implementation in Java" and Allen and Kennedy "Optimizing Compilers for Modern Architectures".

Cooper and Torczon "Engineering a Compiler" was recommended here recently. I haven't seen it.
Not without Mexico's consent. Unless you think they would commit an act a war against Mexico... to fight cartels or something? Even Obama's drone strikes in Yemen was under approval of the Yemen gov, it's a very serious thing to do.
I'm surprised brute force is even needed. As far as I know, CRC has absolutely no intent to be a cryptographically secure one-way function. It is purely used against unintentional corruption of data. With that in light, does it really take an hour to find a collision? Can't you construct one much quicker?

I still want a better todo list.

It's daily. Probably pulls stuff from a backlog. Maybe with deadlines, item 1 by 10 AM, (2) by 10.30 AM, (3) by 2 PM. Alternatively, it rolls a dice and tells me what to do next so there's no paralysis analysis.

Probably some task grouping, like if you're going to the bank, there's these tasks like buying a capacitor from the store next to the bank.

It'll break down a complex task into estimates. This can be done pretty easily with AI and RAG, and I'd be happy to pay small amounts for this.
You can call it whatever you like. I didn't say it was an environmental program, it is first and foremost a revenue generation program under a clever guise to dupe towards political leaning of new yorkers.

No, that’s not how this works. This isn’t a matter of fucking opinion. You can opt to be on the side of fantasy and belief or the side of fact.

The average American is surprised to learn that Obamacare and the ACA are the same piece of legislation. It says nothing that they’re equally surprised by the existence of a 60+-year old government agency, and that those same uninformed bozos are outraged by aid programs of which their entire understanding stems from a single maliciously-crafted Fox News headline.

Do better.
I've been a big fan of the author's tiny renderer. Nice to see a tiny compiler too!

Yeah, that too. get ad revenue, then become the ad yourself.

and... the article ends. Well that was a lot more fluff than I anticipated. Yes, not much will change until the people themsevles start rejecting this content en masse. But there will be people falling for it. There are still people falling for old school email spam, so it's sadly not shocking AI works for the non-discerning viewer.

Gmail marked MY email to MY wife as suspicious?
I forwarded an email from a highly reputable organization, from my email account on a server I've run for 30 years successfully with high reputation, to my wife who has no issues with her Gmail account and GMail in their infinite either idiocy or insolence marked it as suspicious, scaring her.

Meanwhile, spammers set up temporary GMail accounts and blast spam into my inbox with fake McAfee or other fake subscriptions several times per week. The same patterns in the emails going on for months now, maybe over a year, regardless how many times I take the time to go to their site and fill out their form since they ignore their listed abuse address; their AI apparently isn't smart enough to spot these spammers where even a 6 year old would be able to spot them. I keep GMail whitelisted but wondering if I should remove them from my whitelist and start reading up on degoogling.

And they are a multi-trillion dollar organization? It doesn't add up.

Curious (if you're there to read this comment and don't mind answering): why didn't you follow up? I think (duh) there not being service in the subway was a clear problem, but I thought a catchy domain name ("yrsd.life") might have been enough to make up for it. Oh well. Next time.

Lets say you already have deep knowledge of GPU architecture and experience optimizing GPU code to saves 0.5ms runtime for a kernel. But you got that experience from writing graphics code for rendering, and have little knowledge of AI stuff beyond surface level stuff of how neural networks work.

How can I leverage that experience into earning the huge amounts of money that AI companies seem to be paying? Most job listings I've looked at require a PhD in specifically AI/math stuff and 15 years of experience (I have a masters in CS, and no where close to 15 years of experience).
> javac (or any compiler targeting the JVM) is not a real compiler according to it

I think it depends on how you interpret my "non-trivial transformation into or out of an intermediate and/or target representation". For example if javac involves IR, SSA based analysis and transformation (which I assume it does) then that would be a non-trivial transformation and I'd call it a compiler. If on the other hand it was a direct syntax-directed transformation to java byte code then I'd call it a translator not a compiler. But I'm not claiming any authority over definitions here. Words aren't my strong suit.

We are in a period analogous to the end of the Dotcom bubble. The Internet is obviously going to change the world, but right now all it can do is pets.com, etoys.com, kozmo.com.

In 10 years entire new platforms and modes will exist that generate even more opportunities than before. Some variation of this wave has been surfed up and down since the invention and industrialization of computation.

The example I gave was people being fired and immediately rehired[1][2] and you're blaming that on the fake news not understanding Trump's "trolling"?

The President of the United States is trolling federal workers by firing and then immediately rehiring them?
