I'm just not sure what people mean when they talk about "consolidating power" as something distinct from convincing people that you should have lots of power. "Russia style" consolidation of power under Putin involved quite a lot of winning hearts and minds. Rather than inducing a recession, for example, Putin doubled the Russian GDP over his first 4 years.

I'm not naive about the fact that Trump would like to stay in office after 2028 (he doesn't exactly keep it a secret), but the desire doesn't make him any good at it.

The running joke is that American legislators make "surprisingly" good stock trades for "reasons." Regardless or not of whether these picks actually tend to be good long term investments, it really, really rankles to know that a legislator expects poverty to come, is banking on that, but is otherwise not telling diddly squat to her constituents.

Does Tcl have lexical scoping yet? If not, I'd have to disagree that it would have been a better language. JS is not one of the better languages I know, but it does have lambdas and lexical scoping. And as bad as JS's type system may be, at least it's not stringly-typed.
That's likely because it offloads most of the job to GPU. On a potato it's also very choppy, but CPU fans stays quiet indeed.
Gate's notes seems to put the most strain on CPU instead.
I also stopped using social media, and now I use RSS to read fun and smart things. It helps me learn more and waste less time.

> An exception that doesn't change the rule, where are the Vulkan extensions for DirectX neural shaders, and RTX kit?

DirectX "neural shaders" is literately the VK_NV_cooperative_vector extension I mentioned previously, which is actually easier to use in Vulkan at the moment since you don't need a custom prelease version of DXC. Same for all the RTX kit stuff, e.g. https://github.com/NVIDIA-RTX/RTXGI has both VK and DX12 support.

This feels like pretty typical millennial sensibilities (including me). We don't like class differences made explicit via performative gestures. The fact that they are happening even if you don't participate is irrelevant.

I like lush beautifully designed resorts, my room cleaned, and top-notch local fare room service, but all the other service song-and-dance, the waiting on you hand and foot (as is typical in some developing nations), I can do without.

I wish these type of page animation should be rendering to 120fps with less than 20% CPU spike for seconds and no warming up of CPU / GPU on a modern 2025 machine.

Nice! I browsed through the 1953 edition quickly, and it's very similar. So probably some updated version of that.

I was just blown away they send you all that material for free by simply applying. This would have been before the internet was big, so probably isn't as exciting now.
> All of the nerds will adjust their pocket protectors and spew their dubious word-salad (for or against), but the fact of the matter is that nobody truly knows what the nth-order effects will be until they happen

It doesn't really matter if they analyze the nth-order effects correctly because there is enough wrong with these tariffs that the 1st order effects will be bad enough that the higher order effects won't matter.

Even if Trump is right that the US should not have a trade deficit it only makes sense to apply that to US trade a whole, not to trade with each individual country.

If you apply it to each country independently then you cannot trade with a country that has something you need but doesn't need anything from you. That would exclude circular trade (US buys from A, A buys from B, B buys from the US) for example.

Thanks for sharing this. I was thinking of giving it a try, but hearing that zero downtime deployments don't work is a deal breaker for me, which is sad because Coolify looks amazing otherwise.

Don’t know about you, but personally I want the extensions I create to be available widely. The fact that vs code market place is used as an easy place for me to distribute it only to limit the reach based on the business needs of Microsoft sure does feel like being embraced extended in the attempt of extinguishing usecases that I do in fact support.

Can’t fault cursor for letting people install extensions when most of those, if not all of those, developers want their extensions on cursor.

In that specific quote he’s talking about Ivy League universities, not Wesleyan, but the quote would be too long. I thought it was clear, sorry for the misunderstanding.

Regardless, I absolutely agree with you, except for one thing: I would have no problem being under care of a Hungarian, but I doubt you’d ever see a MAGA enthusiast saying he prefers that than an American doctor.
Another commenter mentioned that zero downtime deployments are not possible, isn't this a loss in your opinion, or did you find a way to do it using Coolify?
For me the idea of "stealing IP" in a society like China seems to miss the entire point of what they're doing and seems to fall short of having respect for cultural differences. What we think of as "respecting intellectual property rights" can also be seen as "hoarding property" which is antithetical to communist ideals.
The US economy is the largest in the world, disposable income, both average and median, are highest and second highest respectively. Median income is 30-40% higher than comparable developed economies, and significant higher than China.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposable_household_and_per...

Even industrial output the US is second highest, and it's closer to first place than second.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_sec...

And supporting a whole family on a single income well was a very narrow window of time, and it required the US to have no real economic competitors. Where US workers had no competition on the world stage, but their output was sold on the world stage. So even if the US go isolationist that's still never coming back.

On the basis that the only response to a youtube claim is a better informed youtube rebuttal, see (say):

Dr. Offit describes what would have to happen in order for DNA fragments to cause harm by explaining three protective mechanisms in our cells that DNA fragments from mRNA vaccines cannot overcome.

First, the cytoplasm has immune mechanisms and enzymes that destroy foreign DNA.

Second, the fragments would have to enter the nucleus, which requires a nuclear membrane access signal that these DNA fragments don't have.

Third, even if they were able to enter the nucleus, the fragments would need to have an enzyme called integrase to become part of our DNA, which they also don’t have.

I’m not a huge font nerd but this looks really swanky. Gonna use it as my DE default font for sure.

I appreciate the site’s overview and comparisons and such too
It’s right and wrong. Globalisation has hurt the rust belt, but it’s also allowed for much cheaper goods, which many people have enjoyed. It’s also made other economies much richer, which has allowed them to purchase U.S. goods (China being an immense iPhone market, for example). It’s not zero sum. If the world economy grows, and the USA holds onto a massive slice of that growing pie, then the USA wins - as it has been doing.

And the part about life just being totally unaffordable now isn’t really to do with China stealing from the US - housing is catastrophically expensive in many countries, and is more to do with how it has evolved as an asset class than trade relationships.
This is absolutely new, happening to law-abiding residents, and seemingly immune from judicial review.

The only comparable situation is the Japanese internment camps from WWII.

The point is that it wasn’t that way in 2008, and in comparison the UK has stagnated and been overtaken since then.

I agree, GDP is an incomplete measure, but it does provide a comparison point.
sure but you can basically say whatever you want. Remember the trump tax plan is just 'cut taxes on the rich and provide industrial subsidies' and that works just fine. No need to chop share prices while you're at it with a silly tariff.
It depends on the nature of those tools, whether they increase national security or not, which I'm sure you'll agree affects the outcome.

We had an experience not as bad as that, but cancelling on us a week or two before we were due to fly (and had booked everything else). They wanted US to cancel, but I saw no advantage to us in doing so. I assume it was to maintain some reputation on their side. We declined.
LLMs work with tokens, not letters. So that's not going to work.

I think this is really interesting and would be fun to find out what really happened.

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/apr/04/revea...

I have three theories, based this article.

1. The administration used an LLM on certain data and it incorrectly conflated the countries.

2. Certain companies listed regions of export to avoid customs, duties, or for other reasons and it now indirectly got exposed. The article alludes to this without saying so?

3. The administration listed what seemed like inconsequential regions for the purpose of preventing Australia, for this example, of just saying it was exported from Norfolk Islands to dodge tariffs. Although, this is giving the administration way too much credit and if they are reading this don’t steal this as reason. :-)

He did not say "companies vs individuals", he said "single maintainer", which is obviously a high risk factor to consider IMHO.

I wonder why they all start their own projects instead of putting their heads together. They could achieve so much more and make a bit more money on the side, while each of them would have to spend less time on it. It would also attract risk-averse companies.

A wire is uniform only in theory, in reality its area would keep fluctuating at every mm by very small amounts. Does this equation actually take the effect of this fluctuation. What does A1 and A2 look like, I am assuming A2- A1 = delta Q right?

Putin wasn't who consolidated power in Russia, Yeltsin did, when he successfully carried out his coup. Russia stopped being a semi-functional democracy in ~1993, even if it wasn't yet clear to anyone living there at the time.

Putin just stepped into the nest of ~unlimited executive power that was already made for him.

The the fine article is about listening to music alone fostering a sense of well being.

The comment to which I responded was about how degraded that experience is relative to music in social settings.

When a person does not have access to those social settings they are not better for that person…and as your comments suggest, often worse than nothing. On the other hand headphones are better than nothing.

Yes, this is my whole point. The American Rescue Act and subsequent policies that were very much propping up salient jobs (certainly not wfh tech jobs that are, definitionally, resistant to lockdowns) fueled inflation that led to the end of zero interest rate period which led to large layoffs in tech.

> Wanna have a bottle of water from Flint, MI?

Flint falsifies your point, it is a democratic bastion. If you'd expect that to radicalize people, it should be deep deep read.

> yeah, it is out-of-bounds conduct

Out of bounds is a social norm over time. Donald Trump, their far and away champion, gives such egregious conduct I can't read this with a straight face.

But we can go further back. Was 'just say no' not egregious enough for you? AIDS shaming? The vicious anger against gay people? I can take any snapshot of the past - conservatives will always be the cry bully at any of the years in time you want to pick.
Also, what about all the coups, military operations, political pressure etc etc? Was that the gentle giant?
I’ve grown older, but I don’t think I’ll ever stop traveling. There’s something enriching about setting out alone, discovering new places, and connecting with people but not just on the surface. Before I go somewhere, I take the time to learn about its history, its society, its ways. That way, when I meet someone, there’s a chance for real connection, not just polite small talk. Because if you only skim the surface, everything can seem familiar,sometimes even too Westernized once u look closer, the uniqueness reveals itself.

There’s also something powerful in returning to a place after many years. When you see how it’s changed, you might begin to understand how societies grow, shift, and evolve. And in doing so, you also begin to see your own world more clearly how it too has changed, often in ways you might not notice from inside your everyday bubble.

Different societies don’t just look different they understand the world differently. And sometimes that can be painful to confront. In Western cultures, individualism often makes it seem logical to live and work far from family, sometimes because your hometown couldn’t offer things. But maybe that wasn’t a failure of the system, maybe that was the system. One that only works when social bonds are weakened, everyones reflexes on human connection and personal sacrifice (grinding) is normalized.

Now, we live in a world where people struggle to understand how others think, vote, feel. A village in Uzbekistan, a town in Sicily, a city in the Midwest, or a neighborhood in New York they’re worlds apart, thats is very very obvious. I’ve been to many of these places, sometimes twice, and they’re not the same planet. And they’re drifting further apart.

But this isn’t new. The ancient Athenians were explorers, traders, thinkers, learners. They brought ideas home and reshaped their world. Yet, with time, even they began to say, "This is how it’s always been. Things are the same" They were resistant to understand the underlying mechanisms, as the world around them shifted. Their knowledge came through a lens that blinded them to the reasons of transformation. And eventually, their dominance faded suddenly and decisively driven by the same forces they could no longer truly understand.

It’s a pattern worth remembering. Because maybe, just maybe, we’re living through something similar today. Seeling the world is an enabler for effective introspection. I avoid the touristy places though, they feel like crowded movie sets.
