I want to see a graph of how these numbers changed over the years, and a projection.

Also, I would like to see for each method the number of dollars one needs to invest to visit 2^128 patterns in say a year.

Finally, RPi is missing from the list.

Google should just turn every webpage into an image and from there OCR it back into information. That's the only way to filter out all the crap that humans will not see.

They've been rendering crawled pages using Chromium for many years now. Hidden text does not work as a ranking manipulation tactic.

Sounds more like a contract thing. Of course std::move should be able to throw exceptions (like when it runs out of memory), but when it throws an exception it should still guarantee that memory is in a consistent state.

So the fault here is with std::vector who didn't write that contract.

Same. However, for me the fun in programming was always a kind of trap that kept me from doing more challenging things.

Now the fun is gone, maybe I can do more important work.

My problem was the exact opposite. I wanted to deliver but the dislike of the actual programming / typing code prevented me from doing so. AI has solved this for me.

You might be surprised to find out how much of your motivation to do any of it at all was tied to your enjoyment, and that’s much more difficult to overcome than people realize.

I guess by far the majority of people on this planet selected:

Makes me wonder, how well could an LLM-based solution score on the Netflix prize?

(Are people still trying to improve upon the original winning solution?)

I'm looking for a dual-boiler espresso machine but I'm wondering why they are so expensive. With the cost reduction opportunities of mass production, I don't see why they should cost more than $500.

Anyway, cheapest option so far, at around $900: https://coffeegeek.com/blog/new-products/lelit-victoria-an-o...

But at that price point, I think I'm going to spend the money on RAM.

>With the cost reduction opportunities of mass production, I don't see why they should cost more than $500.

I think it's more of a supply and demand thing. People spend a lot on their hobby. And it's not as much mass produced as some other items.

With a large percentage of the population drinking coffee on a regular basis, can you really call it a "hobby"?

Yes. I have briefly encountered the real coffee nerds. They are extremely serious and meticulous about their coffee, do actual science, and, I am sad to say, the coffee was better than any coffee I have had before or since.

You will not get coffee that good from a coffee shop, it isn't economically viable. But the technology exists.

Arguably for "coffee geeks" it is a hobby!

I'd assume the coffee geeks have figured out how to make cheaper machines and put the designs on github.

They have, kind of. Check out Gaggiuino. Sadly not really open source (Gen3) but you can get a cheap $500 Gaggia Classic and add fine grained control with an Arduino and display: https://gaggiuino.github.io

Then there's the really open source Rancilio PID Clever coffee project:

Different machine, similar approach, a bit more DIY since you can't buy a kit.

Would two DeLonghi Dedica machines count as dual boiler?

Ha, this entirely proves my point that these dual boiler machines can be cheaper!

Maybe material cost? I have a lelit mara machine, it’s pretty heavy. It weighs 18kg, with a plenty of brass and copper pipes. Also the internals don’t look like it can be machine assembled an the fat that it’s made in Italy makes it more expensive in man hours

The same is true for optimization. One small change and the compiler's optimizer doesn't know anymore how to optimize the code, and your code is now slow. And there is no way for a programmer to fix it except by rolling back their changes or by inspecting the assembly output.

Well, it requires a different way of thinking but that's exactly how cars will be built if you'd use them via a subscription (fuel included).

Well it has always been the case with the mobile telephony IC. Way too dangerous to leave it open to hackers.

What are the dangers that can't be dealt with server-side?

The main danger is a virus that infects everybody's phones and then takes control of the telephony modem, e.g. like a DDOS attack.

That's why you can't have root access to the modem even though you technically own it.

Viruses injecting code into the process of the app that you use to do online banking. obvsly. Or the app you use to do second-factor authentication.

You can protect against that by requiring the app to have a valid signature. You cannot guarantee that the signature is valid unless you can guarantee that the kernel has not been modified. You cannot guarantee that the kernel has not been modified if the phone has been rooted.

For what it's worth, my banking app for my Canadian bank (and the app which does second-factor authentication for web transactions when doing web-based online banking) will not run on a rooted phone. For good reason, I think.

My bank used to use SMS for second-factor authentication, but no longer does so. For good reason. When I do online banking from my desktop, I still have to use the second-factor authentication login on my phone. Or sim-less tablet, interestingly. Whatever the mechanism, is, it is not SMS based.

That's not the mobile telephony IC. That's just the phone's CPU.
