linkers are a hot spot for innovation in infrastructure now. LTO (link time optimisation) is the hot topic for Apple’s new generation of linkers, enabling them to optimise across functions, etc. All languages are trying FFI (foreign functio

The opposite of docs is also expertise: learn through experience, then have a career moat. It’s why Microsoft and Apple get away with secret API, which also gives them some leverage. Docs tend to be good only in the post-prototype, pre-domi

But game theory also presumes a closed, on-the-record world. E.g., it doesn't handle dumping (loss as strategic gain) without opening the scope of game, but there are no scope bounds since value of any type is exchangeable (land for p

If/since the universe of human bad faith is finite, it does seem possible (and useful) to detect all such forms in transactions that are on the record. This won't solve out-of-band corruption and might indeed increase its value, a

Casting this as a slave narrative may be under-selling it. The whole point was that he went far enough away (sailing, Australia) to not only speak with the anger of the injustice (what happened to him), but to target the structural aspects

Right. 4 clay cylinders inch-long, perforated, with geometric symbols on the outside, are not jewelry (otherwise found in the same tomb) but ... labels with a new form of writing because... they were found next to the pottery? The article

Not sure this article captured it for me. Plato's Meno has Socrates showing that even a slave can reason mathematically. It's not really math alone but modeling more generally that activates people's reasoning. Math and logi

Medicine has two time frames: emergency (now) and sometime. It's terrible at "concerning but no strong urgency", i.e., getting in within two weeks.

For those thinking freezing could be an option... there's a fair bit more than just avoiding ice crystals. Medical hypothermia in humans (which is just a few degrees colder) is bounded not really by not by time-cold but by restoring no

Cursor tracks ok, but the implementation seems to replace a low-level pointing device. I.e., it's very precise and jittery - all attribution and no salience. Also maybe like Siri it should be modal. E.g., dwell away to silence, and t

Being dependent as a fall-back seems like that's the right solution: Provide your own index, but vector in the default if you don't get it right. That way users get tailored search without losing scale.

People learn to work better by reflecting on work. So any framework for self-observation is better than none. I suspect that algorithms as a framework demonstrates the structural aspects (e.g., how some searches are more extensive), but mi

The App Store flow is about abstract features so to me it doesn’t speak to value. Eg it’s easy to know when something’s due, but really hard to know when to work on what —- what to do when. Saying “schedule easily” sort of buries the lede.

Out of the frying pan, and into the fire? Be very careful when you feel desperate. It's a recipe for bad decisions. Long-term: sooner, softer, smoother. Recognizing and addressing issues sooner means you can make smaller adjustments.
