Yes, for me it also got far slower than I remember any previous version ever being.
And this is not only thinking for me. I think that today was first time I cought up to generated tokens while reading after I left opened tab for quite a long time to finish infetence.
That's a great idea. I would love to be able to do that. If only I was not forced to live in the most expensive part of my country where one square meter costs more than half year salary of average person. At least from accounting point of view I'm a millionair, just without any ability to get my own space (because needs of family always come first). Life is strange.
>> Action A+B is illegal, and A by itself and B by itself are legal. A company did A+B, but the individual employees only did A, or only did B, and neither knew about the other.
That's a really interesting idea. Can you give some real live example of such situation that really happened?
What was the Larry Ellison attributed quote about programmers ? Google shows me sth along the "the computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than fashion industry".
It rings quite true - new tools comes and gets the market because they are the new hot shot in town (like eclipse and then intellij once was). Its only matter of time before VSCode will go the same way.
As for eclipse I personally blame lack of funding and interest from new open source devs after it lost its status.
I still use it daily but with each new Eclipse release and my code base growth it really slows down to a halt sometimes and it becomes more and more frustrating. Maybe its time to switch to something that is kept alive by more than few old guys.
>>they aren't the manufacturer's customer in the market for new cars
Wow somehow this simple observation seems to be the greatest critic of capitalism I have heard in long time. It succintly shows why this system if left alone and scaled will destroy everything with its externalities.
And for something between Ticket to ride and 18XX games you can try Age of steam - this is a lot better for when you really feel the need to build some railroads and just move stuff and not to have to learn how stock exchange works.
>> Well, it turns out what they said was true for them, but is not true for people like me, who can't visualize to save their life.
I used to be exactly like this - I could not visualize anything. Which was very perplexing for young me - I was astonishingly good at math (winning some country level math competitions even) but could not get past some arbitrary but somehow low level geometry problems. Then it struck me - I could not see the solutions in my head, only on paper, which drastically limited my search space.
But latley after years od doing other thing (including more artsy stuff like drawing) I discovered that I was wrong - its it possible to learn, its just that some people gets this faster and with little effort. For me it was just a other few thousend hours of doing staff that accidentally expanded my visualization ability and then "miracle" happend.
The same was with my supposed tone deafness - guess what, I only believed my self info being tone deaf (real tone deafness is very bery rare). I just was lazy in this departament (in building my ability to perceive tones).
I actually did not ask when you should use this but I guess this could just be normal engine off switch that is always used when on ground (just you should never touch it mid air) or maybe something also usefull when when you have some fire-like situation going on. The whole not use when flying as far as I remember was because it can be really hard to get the engine to work again. And the look of the switch conveyed this message really well.
Not OP but guessing that this is about metaphorical self-destruct button (that has other important functions beside killing everyone).
Have you every been in airplane cockpit?
There always is a switch that cuts enginees off and from what my pilot friend tells me using it in mid flight is more or less equal to killing everyone. And yes, as far as I remember it is big and red and have a lot of "do not touch" vibe around it.
Thanks, it looks more like fantasy than fiction - I always liked that Count is embeded is real historic events despite me being fantasy fan and almost never reading historic fiction. But somehow in Counts case it seems essential (and that's way anime adaptation was my least favorite).
The trailer looks a bit generic and definitely has a bit different vibe than Im used to (me not knowing French does not help at all :) ). Also the Count after transformation seems to have a different style - feels not as distinguished as old school actors in previous movies.
But maybe it will be exactly what this story needs.
>> It's old, but the beginning especially is just a non-stop adventure. It always drags a bit for me after the first third, but picks up again and continues to be great throughout.
Its a pity that we can have new cuts of movies (Zack Snyders Justice League vs original one) but we will never get George R. R. Martin version of Count of Monte Cristo.
Any man made hardware is rather too organized to be good analogy here. But we have better alternatives than came along recently - LLMs or any kind of AI models as a matter of fact. Personally I would use analogy of "try running a prompt locally and then explain what really happened inside in terms of CPU operations" :)
>> If your entities are modelled mostly correctly you really don't have to worry about migrations that much
I'm gonna take a wild guess here that you have never worked in unfamiliar domains (like lets say deep cargo shiping or subpremium loans) where your so called subject matter experts provided by client werent the sharpest people you could hope for and actually did not understand what they where doing for most of the time?
Because I on the other hand am very familiar with such projects and doing schema overhaul third time in a row for production system is bread and butter for me.
Schemaless systems is the only reason I'm still developer and not lumberjack.
>> At the age of 40+, I'm a bit ashamed that I'm not as persistent as them, when they were at their 20s and 30s back then.
Don't be and be careful what you wish for.
From my perspective their behavior is borderline unhealthy and almost like a type of OCD but by sheer luck directed towards stuff that pays good. Especially Carmac and Romero are bad role models - their life is really good story to tell (both books reads very well) but not to live.
The real question is "is it good enough for the job"?
The broken english of original was clearly not enough, but a bit cringy alas correct may do the job fine and just like that another whole category of work is gone and same number of editors have to compete in ever shrinking market.
I'm guessing you are in software dev or something auxiliary to it? And probably you were passable in STEM topics at school?
Then maybe, just maybe, your whole career is just happy accident of right time (software eating world) and right predispositions (STEM).
I know mine is.
And if I would not have that I would be earning what 85% of my peers here in Poland do (barely enough to pay bills).
The only ones that are doing ok without this are the ones that invested everything in social skills (by happy accident of not having socially akward parents or by themselfs intuitively knowing that your group is everything).
So this is just implementation of my deepest believe that the best what we can do for our children is to make them as socially sklled as possibile. And limiting channels of communication does not look like a good way to this.
Of course Im not advocating unlimited access to everything for everyone - it depends on emotional development and predispositions.
Oh that's a word I haven't heard in a while. And I know it mainly thanks to Monty Python great sketch:
