The intent is to gently exclude the kinds of people who would be hung up on this question.
It's precisely because they're so big that they can afford to overhire lots of designers, which then obviously need to justify their employment by continually changing things. This isn't a problem with small and tiny companies where "UX designer" might not even be a separate job but the responsibility of someone who will care only enough to make something that works and then leave well enough alone.
Unfortunately even Google started requiring JS, which was a huge attack against small browsers and the open web.
I like this framing:
> Every person in the world is provided a gun. If a person wants to, they can shoot themselves in the head. However, these guns are special so that if more than 50% people in the world shoot themselves in the head, the guns will all jam and everyone will survive. Or, the person can choose to set the gun down and walk away.
It's literally the largest registrar in the world, by a large margin.
When you're a business and want something reliable, picking the most popular provider is usually a strategy that works decently well. They're more likely to have established processes that work for all sorts of cases.
That's what makes this particular story so egregious.
Domains are a very funny business. I can't think of anything so crucial to businesses, that at the same time generates so little revenue per customer. Your entire technological infrastructure depends on it, yet it costs $15/yr. Making a single support request can turn you into an unprofitable customer.
Or hidden benchmarks, though it's then harder to get people to trust the results.
I'm completely confused by the issue, the linked page is a terribly unclear description. It doesn't clearly explain what prior behavior was, or even what the new behavior is precisely. What on earth is this garbled English supposed to mean:
> any link to an issue form an issue stared to open in a popup overlay instead of navigating to it
When I use GitHub now, I see that when I hover over a link to an issue, it provides a hover popup after a fraction of a second. I can still click the original link to navigate to the issue, or move my mouse and the popup goes away.
Is the complaint that these hover popups exist at all? Or is something else happening to certain people that they're complaining about? There isn't a link to an example page or anything. I'm just baffled here.
I'm exasperated whenever I read articles like this. Anyone who underscores the difference between humans and agents by saying "[agents] write based on their current understanding of the task, which may be wrong" is clearly working with a different species of human than the one I've worked with.
Containers are just statically-linked programs for the rest of us.
When selling a product through a reseller, the markup is around 80-100%. I was horrified by this in the 80s, but soon learned that the resellers would be out of business otherwise.
The reason resellers exist is they do the marketing, warehousing, shipping, customer service, etc.
IMO, Kubernetes isn't inevitable, and this seems to paint it as such.
K8s is well suited to dynamically scaling a SaaS product delivered over the web. When you get outside this scenario - for example, on-prem or single node "clusters" that are running K8s just for API compatibility, it seems like either overkill or a bad choice. Even when cloud deployed, K8s mostly functions as a batteries-not-included wrapper around the underlying cloud provider services and APIs.
There are also folks who understand the innards of K8s very well that have legitimate criticisms of it - for example, this one from the MetalLB developer: https://blog.dave.tf/post/new-kubernetes/
Before you deploy something, actually understand what the pros/cons are, and what problem it was made to solve, and if your problem isn't at least mostly a match, keep looking.

It seems to me that there's some overheated rhetoric that reminds me of the tech-specific spin on the Appeal to Novelty fallacy [1], where people think a new tech is going to uniformly improve on an old tech, that if it isn't an improvement on every front it is somehow a "failure", and therefore if we like the new tech and we are on Team New Tech that we must defend how the new tech is an improvement on every aspect.
Gaussian splats are definitely interesting and do something things older tech is not very good at, but at the same time, it's definitely going to end up being a tool in the tool chest and not completely murderating mesh-based tech or something because they have a lot of other weaknesses, like editability. Or dynamic animation.
What I think some people may not realize is, that's not particularly uncommon. There's a really, really long line of graphical techs that do something particularly well but their weaknesses have kept them in a limited use. It's not a problem for Gaussian splats to become a tool in the toolchest; they aren't a "failure" if we're still using meshes for a lot of things in 10 years.
Mesh-type techs are the "default" for some good reasons.
UX is really, really hard - and for some reason still not fully respected as a discipline.
You're right, I keep looking into when will Vercel update their build image infrastructure, which is currently based on 2023.

I mean sure it's not impossible if you are willing to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to tunnel additional subway lines all over the place.
When they were built, these subway systems obviously were provisioned over expected capacity. But obviously, cities grow and nobody has a crystal ball to know what the population of a city will be 50 years from now.
The thing about subways is that adding significantly more capacity on an existing line isn't really possible if you are already running the trains as close as possible together as safety allows, which is often the case at rush hour. It's not like buses where you can just add more to the schedule.

> And if you happen to land on their "bad" list (which eventually everyone will), you're locked out of life completely. No banking, no traveling, no communication with anyone, no buying food, nothing.
Not really. Government is not Big Tech. This happens with accounts of some tech companies precisely because they're private entities setting their own rules in the still wild "wild west" of the Internet. Governments set laws and processes to ensure the things you mentioned do not happen, except in very specific circumstances.
Think of it this way: being "locked out of life completely", resulting in "no banking, no traveling, no communication", etc. is not a new problem. In the off-line world we call that being sanctioned, imprisoned, deprived of personal freedoms, etc. Yes, it happens to some people, but usually for very specific reasons (called "crimes"), after a lengthy bureaucratic process (called "trial" and "sentencing"), with plenty of safeguards to catch and rectify mistakes during and after the fact (like "legal defenses", "appeals", or even "journalists"). It is not something you normally worry about.
Humanity has worked out best practices for these thing over thousands of years of various tribes and nations and governments forming, disbanding, collapsing, emerging, conquering or becoming conquered. Adding electronic IDs on top does not change the nature of the thing. So you won't get locked out of life for posting the wrong emoji in a tax report comment; that would be like being thrown to prison for drawing something on a government form - or rather, if that's even remotely possible in your country, you have much bigger problems than digital IDs, and your best move would be to emigrate somewhere sane before borders close or civil war starts.
Plenty of other things to worry about here (e.g. ID checks suddenly being required by every business, just because it's zero effort to them for some marginal KYC benefit), but getting banned from life due to ToS violation is not one of them.

Same here. I had installed Headspace long ago and deleted it. It's now reappearing if I delete it.
The article makes no sense, and stars with a very wrong perspective on things.
This kind of forgetting is normal. It's how things work when time and resources are finite. The only problem here is the belief that you can keep capacity to do something without actively exercising it, and thus the expectation that you can "just" resume doing things after a long break, without paying up a cold-start cost.
But you can't, and there's no reason to be surprised. I bet the Pentagon and the EU weren't. They didn't need those Stingers and shells for decades, didn't expect to need them soon - but they knew they could get them if they really needed them, but it's gonna be costly.
I don't get why people think this is unusual or surprising, or somehow outrageous and proves something about society or "mindsets of elites" - other than positive aspects like adaptability and resilience.
This is true at all scales. Your body and brain optimizes aggressively, too. An individual saying "I need to warm up" or "I need to hit the gym a few times and then I'll be able", or "yes, I can, but I haven't done it for years so I need an hour with a book/documentation..." - all that is exactly the same as EU going "yes we can make artillery shells... though we haven't in a while so we need some time and some millions of EUR to get our supply chain sorted out first".
In this era, the name "BrowserID" just sounds like another dystopian thing.
Military exercises where the commanders and staff are real but the troops are simulated are called command post exercises.[1] The US military's approach seems to be less like gaming and more like doing it for real. Five day 24-hour training exercises, using the same people and gear the real command post uses, with 1:1 real time. Somewhere in the back are umpires using computers to track what's happening. The objective is not so much to learn tactics as to see who and what breaks. Screwing up can set back real-world careers.
There are people pushing for more paper war-gaming, but they're in the minority.[2] "Train like you fight" is an Army mantra. But the U.S. Army War College is trying.[3] There's a lot of heavy thinking going on around how to defend Taiwan.

> They can’t tell you what the AI got wrong.
AI code generators are trolls. They confidently plausible content which is partly wrong. Then humans try to find their errors.
This is not fun. It has no flow.
I'm surprised there was no mention (at least none that I found when searching) of the relatively recent research coming out of Harvard regarding the hypothesis that low levels of lithium in the brain are responsible for a lot of Alzheimer's cases.
The research is still in the very early stages (largely mouse models, though they did develop the hypothesis by looking at differences in human brain tissue post mortem), but to me my biggest fear is that little research will be done because the "cure" is a commonly available, non-patentable supplement, lithium orotate.
As someone in middle age with a family history of dementia, I've decided to start taking lithium orotate because the risk/reward profile looks so good from my perspective. Lithium orotate has been sold as a supplement for decades, and at those levels it is very safe with extremely-small-to-no chance of adverse effects (e.g. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S027323002...), so I figure the worst that can happen is I'm wasting my money, but I'd take that for even the small chance that it helps ward off dementia.
This has been noticeable since Tahrir square; I used to say that Twitter gives you a revolution whether you need it or not.
But it's becoming increasingly clear how badly compromised the whole thing is with fake opinions and enemy propaganda.
I don't like either of the options. I don't like control by the state, and I don't like control by mad billionaires. I don't like the far right cesspool of 4chan, but can't disagree with their position that they shouldn't have to care about OFCOM.

>In my experience people complain about it because they are coming from a blocking first mindset. They're trying to shoehorn async calls into an inherently synchronous structure.
There's no "inherently synchronous structure", at least not in Javascript. The nature is synchronous, asynchronous is an illusion built on top of it. Which is why you can easily block an "asynchronous" program:
while (true) {}
JavaScript execution is synchronous on a single call stack. That's why they added Workers which is different to async.
Rust's Tokio and co are also blocking. You need threads to get something that's not an inherently synchronous with merely a facade or cooperative asychronicity.
>My government has been talking for a while making the case that social media use makes us dumber, sadder, and more scared. I believe it's true that they also see that playing out in elections, but that's not where they want to solve a problem.
The governments themselves are "dumber, sadder, and more scared". They are worried because social media puts regular people talking on equal footing to official propagandas (being able to reach everybody else). That's what they fear, because they have the lowest approval ratings and legitimization in over half a century, and they're also making everything shittier and shittier to the benefit of their corporate overlords.
I have a standard OpenAI/ChatGPT Pro account; GPT5 is my daily driver for math, and Claude for code.

The LLM took an entirely different route, using a formula that was well known in related parts of math, but which no one had thought to apply to this type of question.
Of course LLMs are still absolutely useless at actual maths computation, but I think this is one area where AI can excel --- the ability to combine many sources of knowledge and synthesise, may sometimes yield very useful results.
Also reminds me of the old saying, "a broken clock is right twice a day."

I was there pretty early. I remember being super happy on a day I got an email from Flickr that my Pro account upload quota was upgraded to 2GB monthly.
Made many friends via my photos, online and in-real-life. Many of my photos became pretty popular and picked (stolen a lot too) up by major newspapers/publications in India, USA, and even in Vietnam. Some even bought the original copy and rights. It was never my intention to sell my photos nor will that ever be but my guestimate is that I sold quite a lot (high single digit thousands of dollars).
I donated and gifted a lot of Pro accounts to people who asked, mostly students and thos who commented nicely on my blog. Many of my payments comes to Paypal and it got accumulated and there were no ways to get the money to India (for a very long time). So, I just used it to gift to others.
Before I stopped using it more than a decade ago. It had garnered over 10+ million views and my tenure with Flickr lasted almost a decade.

This is the kind of scientific research which companies don't generally pay for because it doesn't have direct commercial application, but that companies and the economy benefit from enormously because you can use the results of that science to build a great deal of useful commercial things.
4th paragraph of TFA:
> Several companies are now building upon existing techniques for accessing geothermal resources by integrating enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) into operations. While conventional geothermal systems produce energy using hot water or steam, pumped from naturally occurring hydrothermal reservoirs trapped in rock formations underground, EGS use innovative drilling technologies, such as those used in fracking operations, to drill horizontally and create hydrothermal reservoirs where they don’t currently exist.
Dr. Jessica Knurick has done a great job IMO breaking down how authoritarian governments co-opt science to their own ends and end up destroying it in the process.

12 years ago I tried to make a simple app for myself. It would display bars that got smaller as the day/week/month got shorter, and would show the weather as a set of bars between max temp and min, cloud cover, etc.
I got it working well enough to display what I wanted in text and ascii, but I could never get the interface good enough to want to use it daily, and certainly couldn't get the graphical interface working. I threw it a Claude Code, told it what I wanted the graphical interface to look like, and let it run.
It got an app exactly what I wanted, and even found a bug in the date parser that I hadn't noticed. I now have it running in the corner of my screen at all times.
The next app I'm going to build is an iPhone app that turns off all my morning alarms when the kids' don't have school. Something I've wanted forever, but never could build because I know nothing about making iPhone apps and don't have time to learn (because of the aforementioned children).
Claude Code is brilliant for personal apps. The code quality doesn't really matter, so you can just take what it gives you and use it.
Rear view mirrors are not that common with commercial vehicles and are already replaced by cameras at least on the Tesla’s Cybertruck (the least of that car’s problems).
While getting rid of the rear window is kind of a surprising design decision, I don’t think it’ll spark major controversy.
I don’t think they’ll ever give up on that. It’s still a major sales driver for licenses.
They really can’t. Windows personal versions are what makes it attractive as corporate desktops, which brings in a lot of money and favors their brand of lock in. Every Fortune 1000 has thousands upon thousands of VDIs, each with its own Office and Outlook connected to either a huge network of Exchange servers or a hosted SharePoint+OneDrive+Exchange environment, all brought together by an Active Directory.
Take Windows out and the whole rest of the proposal gets less attractive.

> doesn’t make the wrong word the right one. Just that it’s a lazy combination and people don’t need to mind
That’s a fair interpretation. I’m going one step further: if most people use the term “wrong,” including experts and industry leaders, that’s eventually the correct use. The term “open source” as requiring open training data is impractical to the point of being virtually useless outside philosophical contexts. This debate is on the same plane as folks who like to argue tomatoes aren’t vegetables, when the truth is botanically they aren’t while culinarily they are. DeepSeek’s model not being open source is only true for the FOSS-jargony definition of open source—in non-jargon use, it’s open source.
As someone who repairs and collects old computers, it might be one more tool.
Function coloring does not mean that functions take parameters and have return values. Result<T,E> is not a color. You can call a function that returns a Result from any other function. Errors as return values do not color a function, they're just return values.
Async functions are colored because they force a change in the rest of the call stack, not just the caller. If you have a function nested ten levels deep and it calls a function that returns a Result, and you change that function to no longer return a result because it lost all its error cases, you only have to change the direct callers. If you are ten layers deep in a stack of synchronous functions and suddenly need to make an asynchronous call, the type signature of every individual function in the stack has to change.
You might say "well, if I'm ten layers deep in stack of functions that don't return errors and have to make a call that returns the error, well now I have to change the entire stack of functions to return the error", but that's not true. The type change from sync to async is forced. The error is not. You could just discard it. You could handle it somehow in one of the intervening calls and terminate the propagation of the type signature changes half way up. The caller might log the error and then fail to propogate it upwards for any number of reasons. You aren't being forced to this change by the type system. You may be forced to change by the rest of the software engineering situation, but that's not a "color".
For similar reasons, the article is incorrect about Go's "context.Context" being a coloration. It's just a function parameter like anything else. If you're ten layers deep into non-Context-using code and you need to call a function that takes a context, you can just pass it one with context.Background() that does nothing context-relevant. You may, for other software engineering reasons, choose to poke that use of a context up the stack to the rest of the functions. It's probably a good idea. But you're not being forced to by the type system.
"Coloration" is when you have a change to a function that doesn't just change the way it interacts with the functions that directly call it. It's when the changes forcibly propagate up the entire call stack. Not just when it may be a good idea for other reasons but when the language forces the changes.
It is not, in the maximally general sense, limited to async. It's just that sync/async is the only such color that most languages in common use expose.
You think education is effective? How much educating do they need to do about meth being bad before people stop using it?
I've treated this as an information problem and wrote a small utility that explicitly does not store most things (https://github.com/skorokithakis/gnosis). Basically, the premise is that the things the LLM knows will always be there, so store nothing the LLM said, the code will always be there so the code-relevant things should be comments, but there are things that will be neither, and that are never captured.
When we create anything, what we ended up not doing is often more important than what we did end up doing. My utility runs at the end of the session and captures all the alternatives we rejected, and the associated rationales, and stores that as system knowledge.
Basically, I want to capture all these things that my coworkers know, but that I can't just grep the code for. So far it's worked well, but it's still early.
Hmm, what, the acetone evaporates and leaves just the plastic? Is that how it works?

That’s possible as well. I wish common terminals (the kind that is shipped with the OS) would do ReGIS, Tektronix, or even sixel (yuck!).
The problem with your comment is that the word "real" is just there to move the goalposts. There are people building high-quality stuff like this, yes.
I built a tiny utility like this that works very well yesterday:
I’m happy it relies on libcursesw for terminal abstraction instead of hard-coding ANSI sequences. This way I can continue using my VT-100 compatible terminal.
I still need a VT-230 or 330.
It could easily become this fast or even faster, if we would just stop worrying so much about "playing god" and focus instead on getting good at this job. We don't have much time for this either, as AI is on the trajectory to take over that mantle in the next decade or three, whether we like it or not.
But seriously, we may not have much choice. Natural evolution stopped being able to adapt to environmental changes after it created us; genetic engineering is essentially the only way to make biology adaptable enough again.

> What good is AI that is so good that you cannot sell API access because it would help others to build equivalently powerful AI and compete with you?
Its awesome and world dominating, you just don’t sell access to that AI, you instead directly, by yourself, dominate any field that better AI provides a competitive advantage in as soon as you can afford to invest the capital to otherwise operate in that field, and you start with the fields where the lowest investment outside of your unmatchable AI provides the highest returns and, and plow the growing proceeds into investing in successive fields.
Obviously, it is even more awesome if you are a gigantic company with enormous cash to to throw around to start with when you develop the AI in question, since that lets you get the expanding domination operation going much quicker.
I'm from a Cambridge background, not Oxford, but the trick to this sort of essay is that the journey is the destination. That is, ultimately it's not expecting you to reach a single right conclusion, but to present evidence, argument, and references.
The rubric doesn't say, but I'm guessing you'd get three hours per essay, one hour per question, minus the minutes spent selecting which ones.
> My impression has always been it's more important the build the correct thing (what the customer needs/wants) rather than more stuff faster.
The process of learning what the customer needs/wants is a heavily iterative one, often involving throwing prototypes at them or betting at a solution, then course-correcting based on their reaction. Similarly, the process of building the correct thing is almost always an iterative approximation - correctness is something you discover and arrive at after research and prototypes and trying and getting it wrong.
All of that benefits from any of its steps being done faster - but it's up to the org/team whether they translate this speedup to quality or velocity. For example, if AI lets you knock out prototypes and hypothesis-testing scripts much faster, you can choose whether to finish earlier (and start work on next thing sooner), or do more thorough research, test more hypothesis, and finish as normally, but with better result.
(Well, at least theoretically. If you're under competitive pressure, the usual market dynamics will take the choice away, but that's another topic.)
I have some of those at work: they're test platforms for the audio ICs, for things like SoundWire interfaces.
The original version came with Turbo Pascal 6, the C++ port came later.
So this is a modern port of the port. :)
Borland did the same with other frameworks OWL came first in Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5, and many of C++ Builder tools are actually written in Delphi.
Anyway, Turbo Pascal 5.5 adoption of Object Pascal, followed by Turbo Vision on version 6, was my introduction to OOP, and it I was lucky have gone that path.
Got to learn OOP, and all the goodies that Turbo Vision offered as a framework in an environment like MS-DOS.

Depends on what you do.
For things like drawing (Procreate and co), editing images and even videos on the go, using it with a MIDI keyboard and AU plugins for gigs, reading ebooks, watching a movie in bed, etc its way better than both the Mac and the iPhone.
Paired with a BT keyboard, for niche stuff like focus writing apps (closer to fancy typewriter with no distractions than a full laptop or phone) it's also great.
This is encouraging. The title is a bit much. "Potential points of attack for understanding what deep learning is really doing" would be more accurate but less attention-grabbing.
It might lead to understanding how to measure when a deep learning system is making stuff up or hallucinating. That would have a huge payoff. Until we get that, deep learning systems are limited to tasks where the consequences of outputting bullshit are low.
They've used AI themselves to speedrun the company turning from customer goodwill/"Don't be Evil" to full GoDaddy/Adobe level scumbags. Companies usually wait severay years until after the IPO for this.
Hope they crash and burn.
Skills you don't need, atrophy. Skills you need, don't. It's very simple, and the "you won't have the skills you used to need but don't need any more!" line of reasoning is tired and invalid.
