Wonder if they evaluated httpx2 vs niquests: https://github.com/jawah/niquests
jklehm··on Wine 9.0 RC1 – Run Windows Applications on Linux, BSD, Solaris and macOS
Steam uses Proton + Wine under the hood and yeah it works pretty great these days!

ONNX[0], model-as-protosbufs, continuing to gain adoption will hopefully solve this issue.

jklehm··on PostgreSQL: No More Vacuum, No More Bloat
My read is that it's at 90% because they are saturating the CPU to that point with the TPS threshold they use for comparison, the TPS of Oriole is constant and way higher than pg in these charts at least.

I'd think the CPU will drop proportionally to the TPS, they just want to show how high it can go here.

jklehm··on Everything I wish I knew when learning C
It's largely the same, aside perhaps from not shipping with the java compiler by default:

  * install java (includes compiler/runtime): `sudo apt install default-jre`
  * compile: `javac MyProgram.java`
  * run:     `java MyProgram`
jklehm··on Frank Oz Says Sesame Street Has Gone Downhill. Is He Right? (2019)
I didn't realize that. Sure seems like a shift then.
jklehm··on Frank Oz Says Sesame Street Has Gone Downhill. Is He Right? (2019)
Curious if it's a shift in design away from accounting for commercials interleaved every few minutes and now focusing on watching it all at once via streaming.
jklehm··on A New AWS SDK for Rust
Boto typing stubs are changing this. Prior to that I'd of agreed 100%.
jklehm··on Pipenv: Python Dev Workflow for Humans
How do you include checksums in your freeze to catch when the package changes on the pypi server using only pip?
jklehm··on Pipenv: Python Dev Workflow for Humans
Yes it does
jklehm··on Go generics proposal moves to “likely accept”
> no final nirvana language.

There isn't one...yet!

Thanks for the insights...frustrating times to be searching for one.

What ended up working for you?
jklehm··on Why did we wait so long for the bicycle? (2019)
Tires don't last forever...I could see this being an issue.
jklehm··on Python Pip 20.3 Released with new resolver
`pipx install poetry` works just as well
jklehm··on How I think I want to drop modern Python packages into a single program
poetry, pipx, and pyenv are pretty much all you need to be happy with python project management and sandboxing. They address the issues in the article and are far more ergonomic than plain venv wrangling.
jklehm··on Target’s gig workers will strike to protest switch to algorithmic pay model
This is the reason/intention. Potatoes...even worse are jugs of water (low price high weight and bulk). It is a little less clear cut and for sure we're trying to make it easy as possible to reason about the change when picking up a shop.

Full Disclosure: I work for Target/Shipt and my opinions are my own.

jklehm··on Healthy Self-Doubt
I think there's value in docs from a level setting perspective...it's usually way quicker to talk someone through what's changed since the last update than from scratch.

jklehm··on Apple Music on Android requires its own payment details to avoid Google 30% cut
Dueling monopolies share only fleeting similarity with the appealing properties of markets.
jklehm··on Stanford Class on Deep Multi-Task and Meta-Learning
Thinking about it from the wrong direction. We have lifetimes of images that are "not cups" so when we get some cups flagged to us it's differentiated against a huge non-cup baseline.
jklehm··on Writing an OS in Rust: Async/Await
Fair point, looking forward to following along :)
jklehm··on Writing an OS in Rust: Async/Await
Isn't that driving against the lesson learned from the past though? 3rd party drivers can not be trusted to behave and hang the kernel when doing so with cooperative multitasking.
jklehm··on A fitness watch that measures blood pressure
Caffeine triggers a stress response, stress is a cause of high blood pressure.

I read that as 500 / 2.5 per week -> 200 weeks -> 4ish year lifespan.
