IMO its both ends. Overhiring and layoffs are both indicators that managers need a strategy change. Unfortunately Wall Street boys don't understand that employee productivity is directly correlat…

After WW2 China was in another civil war, their economy was worse than Ghana's and they also were trying to build a nuke at the same time.

Most of the Vitriole is still contained in twitter/x, bluesky will soon have the same problem and I expect it to be worse/require more active user maintenance due to the decentralised aspect…

then you've never really wanted a lisp...

It is maddening to see people who usually are pretty serious and mature turn into zombies parroting whatever political propaganda the state decides to push out this year. Some key facts: 1. Tiktok isn…

They wont be able to, because their main product, the AI model and algorithms, are trained on Chinese citizen data, thus marking it as non-exportable. This is already well known, which is why the bill…

It is already well known that tiktok ai models and algorithms trained on Chinese citizen data is non-exportable, so tiktok will never be able to sell to a non-chinese entity.

Just because it doesn’t say “ban” doesn’t mean its not one. It is well known that China lists algorithms and AI models trained on citizen data as a non-export so tiktok will never be able to sell to a…

Tiktok cannot be sold as the CCP bans any export of algorithms that are trained on personal preferences etc, so the only option for Tiktok is pulling out of the US market. The sneaky shift from "…

Again, US social media enterprise refused to operate in China because they were unable to comply with existing local laws. China did not pass a law and force a US company out retroactively. Tiktok com…

The weird thing about parentheses is that lispers only really get how powerful and how simple it makes programming after prolonged exposure, and thats why every now and then we have articles that try …

pinyin because remembering the exact stroke is a pain, plus pinyin is meant for rapid conversation.

modern written chinese was designed and constructed as a lingua franca for hundreds of different cultures and languages within china, so the grammar is as minimal as it could be without being ambiguou…

1. any example on how this is confusing? 把 is "to do to". like 你吃了饭 you ate rice vs 你把饭吃了you did eat the rice etc 2. Its grammatically correct to say "我在走" but it sounds better whe…

From the article it seems they were needlessly using classes and doing funky stuff with Python everywhere. It speaks more about the quality of team than the move to Go. I've used both and maintai…

Journalists need to hype something up

Its spoken by many people all around me. There's more to preserving a language than translating it to a foreign language.

Deep learning (research) has hit a wall. Hint hint no more funding. Deep learning applications are just getting started and from what I'm seeing on the ground, will take no less than 5-10 years b…

I very much doubt that. There's a reason why innovation in games often happen, entertainment is not an easy problem to solve, with no set quantity to achieve

Yikes. That does not look sane to me. Duplicate vnodes doesnt work, so you HAVE to use some function to generate it instead?

It does not look well for an outsider looking into Ruby maintenance to see a technical discussion devolve into a discussion about politeness and race. Luckily matz made the right call. Felipe is right…

Trouble with TDD is that it doesn't fit product development. 1. TDD isn't faster than simply writing test cases down, and executing them manually, especially when UI is involved. 2. TDD quad…

thats the chinese system basically and why the chinese online merchants ecosystem is much bigger

it's ironic that with all the hate on outsourcing that there's love for java. The real reason why Java is a champ is because outsourced labour uses them. https://blog.jetbrains.co…

Contrary to what people think, good design is explainable, though designers may do most of the creation in their head. It's like asking why some code should be written this way, there's alwa…
