Kudos to Professor Sachs for mentioning the 2014 coup in Ukraine and mentioning the role of western powers in engineering that overthrowing of the democratically elected Russia aligned government in Ukraine in 2014. That situation led to the invasion of Crimea and the current conflict. He also mentions there is an opportunity to resolve the war due to Trump. He also criticizes NATO expansionism and brings up the Minsk agreement. These are all things news outlets fail to cover.

Jeffrey Sachs makes good points sometimes, because he has a different worldview from most people. But he’s not without faults. He’s especially popular these days with two very online groups: CCP astroturfers who boost his criticisms of America and praise of the CCP, and pro Palestine anti Israel activists who boost him for sharing their views. These two topics are obsessions of his and even in this Ukraine focused video he goes to these points at the end. It’s hard for me to blindly trust his overtly anti American stance, especially when he can’t bring himself to criticize authoritarianism or terrorism.
A minor nitpick: ICs don't give that much benefit in monomorphic languages like scheme.

For me the defining feature of C++ are its move semantics. It permeates every corner of your C++ code and affects every decision you make as a C++ developer.

Rust's defining feature is its borrow checker, which solves a similar problem as move semantics, but is more powerful and has saner defaults.
Well certainly antibiotics resistance (MRSA [1]) is a problem exacerbated by intense farming practices [2]. To the best of my knowledge there are two big sources of MRSA: Hospitals and livestock farming (the latter of which actually got its own acronym LA-MRSA as in livestock associated MRSA).

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to directly compare the development of bacterial antibiotics resistance with the adaptation of viruses to be able to infect other kinds of hosts. Surely these disease vectors follow different developments.

It wouldn't surprise me though if intensive animal farming [3] has the capacity to exacerbate these problems, if only based on the high concentration of animals kept together and the generally poor health of these animals (poorly functioning immune systems, which is the whole reason for the overuse of antibiotics).

Of course yeah, the main thing is they've not really been tested in a while against OpFor radar or AA so I have some reservations about it actually working long term. The last time they really tested at all was 2003 during the second Iraq war. Even if they can knock out dedicated AA manpads could still pose a significant threat they haven't had to encounter in a while.

If they work like they should on paper and can keep the opponents pinned to the ground under US air supremacy it'll be great but there's always that little doubt that it will work as well against a more evenly match opponent like a theoretical US v Russia/China when it's not punching down so far.

Summary
- I'm an experienced developer, I can build your full stack web app on my own.
- Be it your MVP or later iterations.

Platform
- Existing software stacks are a complexity hell, I've built a full-stack web development platform called Boomla to simplify it 10x.
- To clarify, Boomla is my startup.
- Boomla removes problem spaces, thus simplifies learning it and building with it. It improves iteration speed.
- It fully supports code, partially nocode. The goal is to fully support both, with an AI assistant.
- Version 1 of the platform was a website builder with thousands of users. It has been in production for 8 years.
- Version 2 is aimed at interactive web apps, both internal and customer facing.
- The platform is really fast due to having 10.000x faster data access compared to SQL databases. (Too good? Let's talk.)

Pros
- You get a motivated and very capable developer with 20+ years of experience. (I've built the programming language, storage, web design language, etc.)
- Get white-glove treatment as an early customer plus favorable pricing.
- You can transition to a dedicated team later, happy to help. The platform reduces the amount of things to learn and do, thus ideal for less experienced developers, who are easier to find.

MCP is great for the stateful systems, where shared context is a benefit, but this is a rarity. Developers generally write clients to use APIs in a stateless way, and we want to help this majority of users.

That said, agents.json is not mutually exclusive to MCP. I can see a future where an MCP for agents.json is created to access any API.

I did something similar to reduce the memory overhead of our Rust backend at a recent job; I noticed that when dealing with certain requests, we were using quite a lot of memory on duplicates of the same strings when processing things, so I made something I called an "alias cache" type that could be used to obtain an alias of an existing string if needed, and then introduced those to several places in the codebase where it was most helpful. This strategy also allowed some flexibility on how long strings were "cached" for, which let me tweak which layers of processing should share a cache versus creating their own (and letting the old one drop). Our use case definitely didn't have room for interning to use 2000x less memory, but I think in some of the pathological cases it reduced the max memory usage to around 50% of what it was before without significantly affecting runtime, which I was pretty pleased with!
Chips are but a tiny reason the US wants to maintain the independence and integrity of Taiwan. (The same can likely sadly be said of their democracy, given the US stance on Ukraine.)

Taiwanese independence is primarily about containing China's naval power projection and their ability to keep unimpeded shipping lanes open during times of war.

China can currently be easily blockaded, and within a few weeks of such blockades, their supplies of food and energy will be put under tremendous strain. That's why it's so important to the US Navy that China does not obtain Taiwan.

Fighting a war with a superpower that has that kind of Achilles heel is much easier.

The first 80s song I heard was a literal copy of Phil Collins. But there are no emotions attached to it (for me), and the lyrics are random. It’s more like supermarket background music IMHO, not something I would pay for, especially when we have centuries of music to discover already, why make fake stuff like that?

Edit: I have just heard the funniest most ridiculous metal song ever without a touch of metal inside. Breathe of Death, it’s like a bad joke.

If thats the future of anything, I’m going back to plain C (code) when I retire and I’ll never approach the internet ever again.

Dynamo: A Transparent Dynamic Optimization System
https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/358438.349303

> We describe the design and implementation of Dynamo, a software dynamic optimization system that is capable of transparently improving the performance of a native instruction stream as it executes on the processor. The input native instruction stream to Dynamo can be dynamically generated (by a JIT for example), or it can come from the execution of a statically compiled native binary. This paper evaluates the Dynamo system in the latter, more challenging situation, in order to emphasize the limits, rather than the potential, of the system. Our experiments demonstrate that even statically optimized native binaries can be accelerated Dynamo, and often by a significant degree. For example, the average performance of -O optimized SpecInt95 benchmark binaries created by the HP product C compiler is improved to a level comparable to their -O4 optimized version running without Dynamo. Dynamo achieves this by focusing its efforts on optimization opportunities that tend to manifest only at runtime, and hence opportunities that might be difficult for a static compiler to exploit. Dynamo's operation is transparent in the sense that it does not depend on any user annotations or binary instrumentation, and does not require multiple runs, or any special compiler, operating system or hardware support. The Dynamo prototype presented here is a realistic implementation running on an HP PA-8000 workstation under the HPUX 10.20 operating system.

It's a giant misdirection to assume the complaint is "style".

Writing is a very solid choice as an approach to understanding a novel problem. There's a quip in academia - "The best way to know if you understand something is to try teaching it to someone else". This happens to hold true for teaching it to the compiler with code you've written.

You can't skip details or gloss over things, and you have to hold "all the parts" of the problem together in your head. It builds a very strong intuitive understanding.

Once you have an intuitive understanding of the problem, it's very easy to drop into several different implementations of the solution (regardless of the style) and reason about them.

On the other hand, if you don't understand the problem, it's nearly impossible to have a good feel for why any given solution does what it does, or where it might be getting things wrong.

The problem with using an AI to generate the code for you is that unless you're already familiar with the problem you risk being completely out of your depth "code reviewing" the output.

The difficulty in the review isn't just literally reading the lines of code - it's in understanding the problem well enough to make a judgement call about them.

Correct arguments all around re: utility scale solar, but the incentives for an individual farmer to immediately adopt are huge: local generation makes power cheap, shading makes water use more efficient, etc. Obviously there is a capital cost for the system and costs for maintenance, etc., but given the trend of increasing global energy costs and the resulting burden on households (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41560-023-01209-8), it seems like a very nice idea.

I think it’s a bummer you’re getting downvoted because there is a connection, and it’s actually quite relevant to some other comments.

The connection is not in the characters or plot, but in the expectations of the audience. People have now had many years of being entertained by poorly rendered silly stuff like this TikTok. There are thousands of variations on this theme that have racked up huge viewership numbers, despite looking super cheap with almost no narrative. In fact to some extent the crappy aesthetics are part of why people like these.

So with this cultural background, when folks see something like Flow, they are not going to reject it immediately just on aesthetics. Arguably they recognize the aesthetics as a choice, and to them, the lack of explanation along the way is aligned with that choice.

I write a lot in Python, but I love to write small utilities in Rust as well. The tooling around command line stuff is just really good in Rust and the distribution (just a binary) is just simpler. On top of that Rust forces you to handle errors with IO, like paths correctly to a degree that gives you much more confidence in the resulting tool.

Give it a try.
