Corporations is a clever way of organising people in such a way that all humanity in them is suppressed and whatever little evil in them is empowered. Corporations do so by putting a mask on employees that lets them act anonymously, on behalf of the corporation, and creating the only objective metric - profit. Anything that goes against this metric is ignored, and the few ideas that grow this metric are empowered. No normal person would dare to approach a Jeep customer face to face and try to poison his car with ads: such a confrontation would be unbearable to anyone with a somewhat functioning moral compass. However the same person can do this easily when covered by the corporate mask: not needing to confront the customer openly makes it much more bearable. Corporations wouldn't be able to do this with a bunch of saints - those would just sit idle and refuse to do this evil shit even under the mask of anonymity, but so long as some employees have a seed of evil in them and a bit of creativity, corporations will make that seed grow.

> the only major limitation here was the psychology of Trump's party.

The party that has 50/50 chance of winning the elections has been communicating to Putin all this entire time that they will hand him Ukraine when they win. Now they conclude that this strategy didn't help Ukraine and therefore it's time to hand Ukraine to Putin. Brilliant strategy, I wish them to enjoy their Russian friends who will definitely not screw them over very soon.

> Then you are slowly building a database engine.

> When do you split the files? How do you track which data resides in which files? Does one file represent one kind of data (table)? Does it reflect data within a given time range? Do you sometimes need to retrieve data that crosses file boundaries?

Not really. Splitting anywhere from per-day to per-year is probably fine! Or split arbitrarily and merge the files at runtime. Make it configurable! Add tools to split or merge files, it's really not that hard, a far cry from a database engine.

> You quickly lose the simplicity inherent in saving to just a single file.

No, you really don't.

> Which is where Sqlite shines. It's a single file. But with a full, user defined schema. And can update it and query it incrementally, without having to read and write the entire thing frequently. It handles all of that complexity for you.

That you need a particular tool or library to interact with.

I'm not going to try and sell you on the benefits of using plaintext tools because you've already clearly made up your mind, but there are reasons even if you can't see them. SQLite has like 160k lines of code complexity that isn't necessary and is inherently less composable.
In what specific way did this post misrepresent or abuse the Dunning-Kruger concept? (Btw, the graph used is the same one used on the Wikipedia page for DK.) If you’re able to explain what you understand to be misrepresented, you can clear up the misconception for others — like me.

I started with DarkBasic but moved to BlitzBasic after a few months. Wrote a couple of small games and really enjoyed just messing around with it - it felt just like when I started programming on my first computer.

I still use BlitzMax for game development (when I get time) - there's an updated version with some nice language additions support for more architectures, including the Raspberry Pi: https://blitzmax.org/
That is correct, and is definitely a problem. basically there should be a button that toggles for no code data leaving the network (unless its the proxy you configured). Right now you have to be aware of what features do and don't rely on the proxy which is not a good UX. At the very least there should be modal popup asking for an override or cancel on features that require our custom models.

I can solidify this option with stronger guarantees.

Separately, we're working on Soc II at the moment and should have type 1 soon, and type 2 pending the observation period.

I know trusting my word is difficult bc I'm a random person on the internet, but we do NOT store you code data or use your code data to improve our product in any way (like training models).
In retrospect, I think the warning signs were present at least as far back as the incident with harming the name of the person who told him that submarines aren't helpful during cave rescues.

Possibly even further back, given the fight with the Top Gear car review show: https://www.drive.com.au/caradvice/remember-when-tesla-tried...

Those two incidents together definitely make a hypocrite out of Musk, even if he did win the lawsuit as defendant in the caving case.
I was lucky enough to read it during my studies and to have a teacher that made very good Slides focusing on the most interesting parts.

I think finding someone that guide you through the book allows to go way faster than alone.

Now, while the concepts were extremely illuminating, I think following the book but doing the exercises in haskell is also a nice path. Haskell was another lecture following the one on SICP by the same teacher, and it uses most of the same ideas, sometimes formulated a little differently, but on a more modern language.

I still remember my exam where we received ~6 pages double column of printed lisp, no comments. The code was a compiler, and we needed to change it so that it can jump back in time using call with cc. Difficult to do in 3h and on paper but very fun.
To say it bluntly, everybody hates the US right now. I think that too many people inside the US do not really understand that.
That is why those models are in high demand. Not only for a doomsday scenario, but as a general convenience to fly non-stop.
I am arguing this point, because it’s a huge flaw in the premise of the tool in question.
If you use the product filter it only shows laptops that come pre-configured with 2TB of storage. If you choose a custom build you can configure the latest X1 Carbon with 32 GB RAM, 2 TB storage, and a 2.8k display.

If you choose the custom build route some even can ship with Fedora or Ubuntu, so presumably Linux support is reasonable.

It's not adb / avd or some device emulator. It's an app that you install on your device, and then it can load your app from your development device using a link. I was able to run it in 5 minutes without having android studio or any other android development kits on my laptop.

At some point I really don't get how people can't just accept that historically, the US is a car-centric suburban-centric culture, and that's just who we largely are. If you want to do things like improve the environment, you can either scream and stamp your feet about it or you can meet people where they are and devise solutions that work in a car-centric culture.

It just is what it is, like Brits drinking tea, Scandinavians liking their saunas, or the French being obnoxious about Frenchness.
It makes it a lot harder if you check the balances!
There’s a number of benefits to long battery life besides being able to work for long stretches unplugged.

- Longer cycles means cycle count accruement and thus degradation is slower (sometimes dramatically so)

- For longer trips, charging can be done overnight with a tiny trickle-charging phone brick, which is also better for battery health

- No need to bring a brick, cable, or power bank for shorter trips

- Impact of phantom drain during standby is greatly mitigated

- Laptop will more often than not have enough charge to be used whenever you pick it up, without having to leave it plugged in all the time

- Bluetooth and wifi can be used liberally without fear of chewing through battery too quickly

- You as a user spend a lot less time thinking about your laptop’s battery

There’s also secondary effects, like a machine being efficient enough to have long battery life generally also reducing its heat output and making it more practical to keep cool with a slow fan or passive heatsink.

More like road safety. Ads are meant to be payed attention to, which is an anti feature when you are supposed to be focused on driving.

Same thing really with infotainment and requiring them for basic car functionality. Most of them suck anyways and you cannot operate a touch screen without looking at it. Stop putting climate control behind that screen.

I was profiling my code in the early nineties. Sure, I created primitive profiling tools on my own, but regardless.

While 486 AGI stalls were trivial, especially Pentium changed the game with its U and V pipes. You could no longer trivially eyeball what code is faster. Profiling was a must.

Heck, I even "profiled" my C64 routines in the eighties by changing the border color. You could clearly visually see how long your code takes to execute.
Sadly I think that’s why non-open source commercial deep (re)search implementations are going to be largely useless. Even if you’re using a customized end point for search like Kagi, the sources are mostly garbage and no one except maybe Google Books has the resources and legal cover to expand that deep search into books, which are much better sources.

No, that's not really the main reason. The main reason is that almost every modern Western political ideology is either a development from 18th Century liberalism [the more common case] or a reactionary response against it or some subset of its descendants [excluding the overlap, the less common case], and some are both descendants of 18th Century liberalism and reactions against other descendants.)

As a result, most ideologies in the West have some claim to the name “liberalism” and an even larger majority have deep seated opposition to one or more things with an association with that name.
It makes it slow, but it also means that the EU cannot turn authoritarian with one election, like the US did.

But what the hell - though I do think the job title is bad, but then I've had a few of those myself.
True, but not in the way I think you might be inferring. A construction planning/quoting engineer can give incredibly well detailed and highly accurate plans and timelines for building a building, road, bridge, etc. They don't know how to make the steel, or how to weld properly, or how to mix the concrete, or how to measure slump, or a thousand other tasks the construction workers know by heart. I don't need to know exactly how my developer does XYZ, but I can have a strong enough understanding to know if it's the right approach, how long it will take, what problems to expect, how to work around them, etc. I have an on-staff developer who is brilliant, and even though I don't know SQL very well, nor the language our EMR is written in, he comes to me sometimes for technical advice because I understand what is happening internally, and even come up with ideas on how to solve problems without being able to implement the fix myself.

It requires honest appraisals of your own skills and weaknesses, which is tough. But when I give an estimate on programming projects, we hit my targets on time, on budget, because I know how to write a spec, how to manage a dev team, how to QA, and how to keep development running productively. I can code a little, but I'd be the worst coder on my team, but that's not how my time is best spent.

I don't really understand.

I wouldn't expect "much added value" in the first place, because I expect those gigabytes to go into texture (or video) resolution. So I wouldn't be disappointed by the results.

And the raw impact of a game being that big is that I have to tie up a few dollars of drive space while it's installed. That's annoying but only a little bit. It's on par with the game costing $1-2 more.

a long time ago i envisioned that mail clients should really display mails as a conversation just like you describe. a list with all my contacts. and opening the contact gives me all emails received and sent with that contact.

if you want to use different aliases in deltachat, i think the best option for now is to create different deltachat profiles for each. you can have multiple profiles active at once and you get notifications for all of them, you only have to switch profiles to see all the messages. switching profiles is a single click and feels like switching folders in traditional mail clients.

"other commenters mentioning the high price"

I understand that everybody has different financial circumstances, but personally I find it so odd how people prioritize their spending. $50/mo to level up your math game? Too much. 8x $6 lattes per month - totally worth it. $200k+ for a university education after which you STILL won't know basic math (or much else useful for most majors) - super totally worth it.

For me I'm just willing to pay a lot more than other folks are to learn interesting skills. Math, sailing, music, leatherworking, perfume making, whatever - to me that's such a good use of money.
