Yes, this is the GOP playbook in a nutshell.

1. Rail against the idea that any social program can work, or that the government can do a good job administering it.

2. Fight for amendments to bills around it that reduce its funding or scope in key, critical ways.

3. Let the new thing fail, because you crippled the bill that authorized it.

4. Crow about how you were right all along, that government can't do this or that, and that these social programs are doomed to fail.
I mean we correctly estimated that the breakup of the USSR was a big deal without hindsight.

People who didn't panic during the covid crash made money not because they understood the situation but rather because the money supply went into the stratosphere.
> The term FOSS is meant to unify "free software" and "open source software"

I have always assumed it to mean the intersection of the two contexts. As in, necessarily copyleft.

A layperson doesn't know what copyleft is anyway; they hardly seem worth tailoring communicating for if you're not also going to explain the difference the terms encapsulate and why people might care. Just use "open source" at that point.

As far as I'm concerned the OSI doesn't have any weight and there's little reason to think we share values sufficiently for me to start caring. Do I look like a corporation trying to slap some sense of community on a product?
These formats aren't complex because they really are supposed to be raw (-:

But yeah, it would be preferable to have them use the digital negative (DNG) format, but why bother when the community makes the work for them? Reminds me of how Bethesda does things.
Outlook has this and I've been using it in a work context for many years. Create custom tags for domains and or projects, tag email, notes, meetings with as few or as many tags as you like, and create handy 'Search folders' which are basically a view on a query (you can use other query terms beyond tag of course).
The actual email just goes into big ol' "Archive". I gave up on folder heirarchy many years ago precisely because some emails map to multiple issues/domains/projects.

What popular source-available, non-OSD software is commonly referred to as "open source"?
Prove it! Can you give any example of a notable software project that describes itself as “open source” despite only being source-available, and not free software? Or can you find any article in a notable publication that uses the term this way?

> Everyone independently coming to the same conclusion based on their personal experience isn't propaganda. It's reality.

I am not discounting your experience; to say this is everyone's experience or even the majority of experiences fails to take into account the "reddit thread of lots of other people with similar or worse experiences" exist because people are more likely to post a bad experience than one that goes smoothly and without issue.

It makes it look as though dealing with government agencies is a completely broken total disaster, but it simply works for the majority of people. They only notice it being "broken" when they have an experience that ran into issues and did not go as planned. I imagine with all the random cuts to employees and entire departments, these experiences will increase.

> start getting copious amounts of automated nonsensical threatening form letters from the IRS

Have not personally encountered this or know of anyone else that has, and who also deals with taxes. I do get calls and letters from the "IRS" but they are scams. Again, not discounting your experience and you would know better than I who the letters are coming from, but "IRS" scams are a thing too.
I just had very bad JSON mode operation with gemini-1.5-flash and 2.0-flash models using their own library 'google-generativeai'. Either can't follow JSON formatting correctly, or renders string fields with no end until max_tokens. Pretty bad for Gemini, when open models like Qwen do a better job of a basic information extraction to JSON task.

In military term you'd call this "fat" the reserve: an unused percentage of your capacity which you can deploy to exploit an opportunity or to plug a hole.

Now, the difference between those reserves and what you usually get in most administrations is that you're keeping your reserve sharp and not just letting them socialize at the water cooler and on Facebook.

> There's no methodology at work, it's just indiscriminate firings to cull as many people as possible.

That is the methodology, though. Musk's biography (I believe) contains a bit about how one of his business strategies when trying to make drastic changes is to just fire, fire, fire, fire people. And if you don't realize afterward that you fired too many, and have to hire back at least 10% of them, then you didn't fire enough in the first place.

It's a terrible, inhumane way of dealing with people.
hmm, kind of feel like you're cherry-picking the most difficult versions of those jobs. No need to to into too much depth, but for instance, yeah, not all fast-food employees are working two jobs (many seem to be high-schoolers?). Not all farmers own their own business and are employees. I had a roommate who was a truck driver. He was simply an employee and worked a 9-5 and didn't own his own truck (many of them do, but this is becoming less common).

Although, I agree, there is a lot of blue-collar work that is tough, especially on the body - have done a few weeks of construction work myself, it can destroy your body quickly if you don't learn how to pace yourself and use your body correctly (it's not something I personally would ever want to do long term). But there is also a ton of cushy blue-collar work that are easy - my roommate works at an Amazon warehouse, and she says that her role is mindless work that anyone can do sorting items in boxes.

Yeah, I am probably somewhat biased, but saying that the average fast-food employee's job is more difficult that an average SWE's job (with its deadlines, stress and politics, not to mention all the years of studying), that seems like a stretch. I'm all for the blue-collar worker, but let's be reasonable. Yeah, at least from what I've seen, often, it's not their jobs that are tough, it's the circumstances of their life (many of course are low paying, which makes everything difficult) and lack of advantages they had growing up...

... although, I do admit there are a lot of devs that once they get over the learning curve just coast at their jobs, learning little that is new and working on the same system year after years. Hmm, interesting...

> I'd prefer for Rust to opt for correctness/bug-freeness over performance, even in release builds. If you are doing number crunching you should have to opt out of these checks.

You can turn those checks on, in release mode, of course: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/codegen-options/index.html#o...

But I think the behavior on overflow is to "panic!()" (terminate immediately)? So -- I guess from my POV I wouldn't in release mode. I just think that tradeoff isn't generally worth it, but again, you can turn that behavior on.
Do like in the good old days of portable UNIX scripts, write a POSIX sh script instead, use Perl or Python.
Do we actually want "I just want a stable job" people being a significant part of the federal governments workforce?

I generally wouldn't want those people to work for my company, so not sure why I'd want them to work in my government.
> What is the root issue with unsigned integers?

If I play "Appeal to Authority" you can read some thoughts on this from Alexandrescu, Stroustrup, and Carruth here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18795453/why-prefer-sign...

Unsigned integers are appealing because they make a range of invalid values impossible to represent. That's good! Indices can't be negative so simply do not allow negative values.

The issues are numerous, and benefits are marginal. First and foremost it is extremely common to do offset math on indices whereby negative values are perfectly valid. Given two indices idxA and idxB if you have unsigned indices then one of (idxB - idxA) or (idxA - idxB) will underflow and cause catastrophe. (Unless they're the same, of course).

The benefits are marginal because even though unsigned cannot represent a value below the valid range it can represent a value above container.size() so you still need to bounds check the upper range. If you can't go branchless then who cares about eliminating one branch that can always be treated as cold.

On a modern 64-bit machine doing math on smaller integers isn't any faster and may in fact be slower!

Now it can be valuable to store smaller integers. Especially for things like index lists. But in this case you're probably not doing any math so the overflow/underflow issue is somewhat moot.

Anyhow. Use unsigned when doing bitmasking or bitmanipulation. Otherwise default to signed integer. And default to i64/int64_t. You can use smaller integer types and even unsigned. Just use i64 by default and only use something else if you have a particular reason.

I'm kinda rambling and those thoughts are scattered. Hope it was helpful.
If a compactified spatial dimension exists in our universe, and was big enough to fit an atom, why couldn't we see two atoms that seem like they're in the same 3-dimensional coordinates?

Sometimes compactified dimensions are analogised to a straw: seen from a distance it seems one dimensional, up close (an ant's perspective) it's got one long dimension and one short dimension.

I don't know how far to take the analogy. It sounds like surely photons with wavelengths smaller than the compactified dimension would be likely to take a spiral path, looping around compact dimension n times for every m units of 3-space travelled, which would seem like they were mysteriously slow if you weren't expecting the compact dimension to exist.

I vaguely remember the idea of wavelength-dependent speed of light is a thing that's been ruled out by tests with supernova data, but not to what wavelength or sigma.

It does seem plausible that Trump is acting on behalf of Russia.

It also seems plausible that he is trying to enrich himself and his supporters.

It also seems plausible that he doesn’t understand economics.

I’m genuinely lost as to which of those is correct. Can anyone eliminate one or two?
>It is about total benefit to society, period.

Money is the best tool we have to measure that. Sure it has pathological cases, but overall it's the least bad version to assign value. In the government case it's much worse at this since it's not voluntary and measuring aggregate government services vs. tax. The consumption/price is completely unrelated, etc.

>I know of several people that are 'employed' but net negatives and society is way better off with that arrangement than having them on the streets.

If we are heading towards an economy with labour shortage (demographics collapse), taking up people from the economy and keeping them employed with a useless skillset is going to be a double negative.
Yeah. Daddy is cancelling all that unnecessary and expensive insurance so you can have a higher allowance. Why were we paying for that anyway?

Also, all those so-called "experts" with their agendas are out on their asses where they belong! The private market is sufficiently incentivized to keep their workers healthy and develop treatments for whatever ails them.

Besides, we all know that if you just live a proper, completely monogamous lifestyle, you can't get an STD. Why should Trump voters pay for those that fall ill to their own sexual deviance?

Take your pick from these (and likely more) lines of reason.

Whether this will actually benefit Trump voters is an exercise left to them, but so far they seem to think it will.
I don't see how LEDs are going to be that much better than OLED other than less risk of a higher sustained brightness. I got a QD OLED panel 6 months ago and have basically paid it no mind and there's not even a hint of burn in. It does a pretty good job managing the brightness at idle without being distracting, in that when I leave it on accidentally for 4 hours at a static desktop it lowers to 25% brightness to save itself.

I also have an early generation 65" B series LG OLED. I wouldn't say there's burn in per se, but you can notice some inconsistencies at 50% gray. Even still it's more uniform that any LCD display I've seen.
I have about the same in iCloud and then dozens of drives of video footage. Beyond the "keep it in case you need it" aspect, another angle is that it's often cheaper to just keep everything than spend all the time it would take to do a thorough cull. Video is much slower to review, but also chews up far more space, so maybe that balances out.
I think the article misses the point: It's not about how complex the data structures are, it's about the result, in all its details.

Comparing different RAW converters (Lightroom, DXO), their image rendering is slightly different. If you compare the colors with the JPEG image, even more so. If the goal is to faithfully reproduce the colors as they were shown in the camera, you depend on the manufacturer's knowledge. To me, it makes not sense to have some "open" DNG format in the middle, when it's flanked by proprietary processing.

It's not about the format, it's about knowing the details, including parameters, of the image processing pipeline to get a certain look.
The source hasn't been lost. It's just that the source was written in a combination of assembly code and COBOL, before COBOL was standardised. They can turn and recompile it any time. Doesn't mean that it's easy to modify or maintain.

There were successful efforts to translate it to Java, already underway (CADE-2). They were probably going to finish somewhere in the next two years. The efforts were for bit-for-bit identical reproductions. [0]

An AI will not help you here. Because this little piece of assembly was created for mainframes, not for computers today (AS/400s, I believe). Even the concept of paths don't operate the way systems do today - the drives were direct access, and tape-based.

There is not enough material to train a model on, to make it close to accurate.

> Instagram has been around less than 15 years. I'm suggesting you do what people did for the previous 100 years. You're not willing to do that to avoid ads? You're not willing to call or text your friends?

The fact that instagram is relatively recent doesn't matter here, what matters is the social norms. You're a social outcast if you don't use ad-ridden software.

I'm not willing to be a depressed loner with no friends in order to avoid ads, if that's what you're asking. Just because I can unalive and no longer see ads doesn't mean that I have to like seeing them.

Social norms have changed, and I can't fix that by myself. I'll happily argue that social norms being ad-funded and brainwashing the populace, myself included, is bad though.

The cell phone provider's website has just as many ads as the app, they're equivalent. There isn't a webpage for my landlord.

Note that genetic programming is a specific subset of genetic algorithms that focuses on searching for "programs" (hence the name), typically encoded in the form of a tree structure similar to an AST, though other representations exist. In theory, you could use GP for almost any situation where you'd want to synthesize a mathematical expression or piece of code for which you have a criteria to optimize (i.e. "fitness"). In practice, since GPs are basically just semi-randomly searching a huge combinatorial space, they tend to work best in low-dimensional problems, ideally with a fitness function that is cheap to evaluate. They can work nicely for finding nonlinear symbolic formulas for regression, for example. But there's also some other cool results over the years - Hod Lipson has published several cool results in robotics with them.

Until a few years ago, the popular deep learning methods like CNNs weren't great at that kind of thing, but LLMs definitely changed that - it's safe to say that by drawing on huge amounts of data LLMs are much better at most practical programming tasks. They're not necessarily a complete replacement though, there's definitely space for hybrid approaches, eg https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.07102 or https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06924-6.
