I think this is a pretty common goal. This video is a bit pessimistic, but it shows a lot of evidence that many tech billionaires are aspiring to that end. Most notably Peter Thiel…

The use case for more is managing the history of it in a specific way to make it easier to understand. Most applications don't need this level of management since most applications…

its getting worse. Noticably very bad. I have started double checked with web searches more and more. It went from 100% of the time to only 20%

I hate to be that guy, but this is super common for stripe

I am also learning about the linux kernel, but not in an embedded context. Here are some good resources I have found. https://man7.org/tlpi/ This book is considered the best overvi…

Expanding on your first criteria. The technology stack is fundamentally wrong is a good reason for a re-write. Language too slow. Doesn't handle the workload well. Other stacks hav…

Observability is so key for successful infrastructure. A poor infrastructure with good observability is going to be more successful with than good infrastructure and no observabili…

Conspiracies aside, there are a lot of reasons for this. Reducing liabilities. Responding to complaints. The "Shiny new thing" effect reducing over time. This is going to be the bi…

1955 with the advent of the field with some very hopeful mathematicians, but the research never produced anything. 1980 after the foundations of neural networks, but it was too com…

Apple products communicate with each other even if they don't know each other, so an airtag will utilize the cellular of a nearby iphone in order to get information to apple's serv…

Subpoenas are for criminal cases. It looks like this was a civil matter. A better comparison would be the Twitter user that was tweeting Elon Musk's jet flights. This was before tw…

For the most part, ML doesn't control high-risk things with a human in the loop. The worst cases for ML so far have been stock market crashes from algo trading. Its entirely possib…

Another article conflating AGI risks with ML risks. AGI has catastrophic possibilities. ML risks can range from accidents to annoyances. Other than that, good insights from someone…

Japan is a fascinating case. It's GDP is stable despite a shrinking population. Is it only staying stable because of the population change? If western countries with a similar birt…

Thank you for creating this. I have used it a lot in a few different projects. So much better than postgres's procedural built in

I don't think its possible for any platform that allows for arbitrary code execution to be completely safe. The exploits of today are far more sophisticated than they needed to be …

I think there are a lot of frameworks on the edge of viability, but the bar is a lot higher than it used to be for front end tooling. React(70%), Angular(25%), and a little bit of …

Cython is pretty good for C interop. Numpy is implemented in it

If they choose to move forward with this migration, it will be huge for the project. Make or break type of decision. They are socializing this pretty well Processes -> Threads is t…

I find that any IDE-type setup in vim causes vim to lose the most important thing, speed. If your movements slow down because of too many plugins, the experience is far worse than …

Why not do num1.add(num2)? Or str1.append(str2)? Like with many things in C++, its another grenade, but when used appropriately is pretty great

Its not really well known what is the motivation for witholding funds, but in some cases, it has been shared that is stuff around AML and people have extrapolated. Conventional pay…
