Well, let's put it this way: There are the numbers reported on financial websites (that are best described as neither good nor bad. As in "it feels" there is about as much good news as bad. There is stock market performance, there is loan defaults, both lines going up into the right), and there is what my family and the folks back home and friends are experiencing.

What I mean is this is the financial "good news":

So why can't you address it instead of coming up with an alternative argument again?

No, I've given you a specific example - forced newlinew - of layout that is not a property of the client. ======================= is another example, this time it's formatting, also not a client property

It looks like they played with the design a little between 1997 and 2002 (even getting a little wild with an animated gif in 1999 during the dotcom era). Once they got it dialed in, they stuck with it. This is the mark of a company that knows what business it's in and where to focus.

I'd agree that China is preparing to be cut off, but it's not because of Taiwan. Dan specifically mentions this:

"In vain do I protest that there are historical and geopolitical reasons motivating the desire, that chip fabs cannot be violently seized, and anyway that Beijing has coveted Taiwan for approximately seven decades before people were talking about AI."

Consider the historical timeline: "Fortress China" policies coincide with the rise of American protectionism on both sides of the aisle and the introduction of chip restrictions and punishing tariffs. Taiwan is an emotional/nationalist issue for China, but it's only one part of their policy, not the lynchpin as your comment suggests.

These complaints are about technical limitations that will go away for codebase-sized problems as inference cost continues its collapse and context windows grow.

There are literally hundreds of engineering improvements that we will see along the way like a intelligent replacement to compacting to deal with diff explosion, more raw memory availability and dedicated inference hardware, models that can actually handle >1M context windows without attention loss, and so on.

I'm sorry you feel like it's out of reach of so many. We definitely had to sacrifice a number of things to make it happen. It's not like it was necessarily easy. Unless you are in the unfortunate position of being an only parent this can be an area where you have choice. You can:

1. Ask your school to change their policies. Coordinate with other parents.
Make it clear to the school that if they don't start to enforce these policies then you will hold the school directly responsible for any harm that comes to your child in the environment they create.

2. Pick different schools. (Home School, Private school) if you can afford it. Charter schools may be an option.

Both of these require sacrifice on your part and neither are easy. But no one should ever think parenting is easy.

The product page (https://www.punkt.ch/products/mc03-premium-secure-smartphone, click on "all tech specs") mentions a "SAR sensor". I have not seen that before, does anyone know what this does? Does the device try to estimate how much EM your body received while carrying it around or calling, or what is this for?

It is peculiar, isn't it. SV also seems hell-bent on expanding outward rather than upward, which runs against the staggering cost of land here. That approach is also rather anti-urbanist, which is unexpected for a place that's otherwise pretty progressive.

I've known people who are walking contradictions (I'm one of them), but SV is a place of contradictions. I've never seen that before.

I think the main reason it isn't recommended for all ages is that it wears off. If you get it before 50, when your immune system starts declining, you might end up getting shingles when you're 60 or 70.

Insurance companies used to only pay for the vaccine at 60. They've reduced it to 50 now because people (like me) were getting it in their 50's. I got it in my left eye and because my immune system is kinda shit, I still have it, though it doesn't give me too much grief now. But it did trash my cornea in that eye, so it's messed my vision up pretty good. And since there's still an active infection (after 8 years), I can't get a cornea transplant.

Costco and Sam's Club usually have their filling stations set up for one-way traffic, but offhand those are the only ones I've seen that way in US, Canada, Caribbean, and western/central Europe (though the Euro design of filling stations just off the highway encourages one-way traffic, it doesn't mandate it). Haven't driven myself elsewhere.

The second technical definition in this document is wrong. Great way to put the "the author is opinionated but is clueless" marker right near the top.

> Actual video coding formats are formats like H.264 (also known as AVC) or H.265 (also known as HEVC). Sometimes they're also called codecs, short for "encode, decode".

Codec is coder/decoder. It's not the format.

There's a footnote claiming people mix the 2 terms up (a video format is apparently equal to a video codec according to this "expert") but apparently acknowledging the difference is seemingly only what nitpickers do. Sheesh. If you want to educate, educate with precision, and don't spread your misinformation!

Polite rejection letters often end with an upbeat, noncommittal note about the possibility of things being different in an undefined future. Saying that this opened the door for Georgia and Ukraine into NATO is incorrect; the allies decided on the opposite at the summit.

Georgia and Ukraine hoped to receive an invitation to NATO and begin membership negotiations. Today, almost two decades later, they still haven't received an invitation nor started negotiations.

But it has been realized, you got $1B dollars from it.

Like imagine if in the future when you go to the grocery store you never "buy" any items from them. You just "loan" a banana from them secured by a gold coin. They themselves use that loan as collateral to get money to then pay for their operations.

Every example against this is somebody being like "I bought a house for 10k and now its worth $2M; I don't want a large tax bill!". And yeah; you won't get _any_ tax bill because you aren't using the house as collateral on a $2M loan.

Searching for "site:punkt.ch grapheneos" returns results that don't exist anymore. Articles are linked in the thread which supports this as well.

> They repeatedly said they forked it from GrapheneOS in their media interviews and marketing. They didn't keep following along with our improvements and have shifted away from presenting it that way, partly because we requested it.

And that also matches what is claimed here, they used to market based on this, they don't anymore.

> There’s no way in which IPv6 is less private than IPv4

With IPv4 behind CGNAT you share an address with hundreds of other users. This won't protect you against a targeted subpoena, but tracking companies typically don't have this kind of power, so they have to resort to other fingerprinting options.

On the other hand, an IPv6 address is effectively a unique, and somewhat persistent, tracking ID, 48/56/64-bit long (ISP dependent), concatenated with some random garbage. And of course every advertiser, every tracking company and their dog know which part is random garbage; you are not going to fool anyone by rotating it with privacy extensions.

I really don't care what browsers do or don't implement. I only care that Apple doesn't allow other browsers to use their own browser engines on iOS. That's it, that's all, and it also got notice from the DOJ, which is one of many reasons Apple is getting sued by the DOJ.

Until Apple lets other browser engines on iOS, they are behaving like greedy tyrants.

The difference is zfs does a lot of work and makes a lot of promises that it proved the data is good at every step of the way while it's being handled, that other filesystems do not do.

So: "I copied the data and didn't really look at it much." and it ended up being corrupt,

is different from: "I promise I proved this is solid with math and logic." and it ended up being corrupt, complete with valid checksum that "proves" it's not corrupt.

A zfs scrub will actually destroy good data thanks to untrustworthy ram.

"So roughly, from what Google was seeing in their datacenters, 5 bit errors in 8 GB of RAM per hour in 8% of their installed RAM."

It's not true to say that "Well all filesystem code has to rely on ram so it's all the same."

> You seem to think Apple are the absolute best in security, but they aren't even close to that.

Repeating this opinion ad nauseum doesn’t make it any more true. I already provided Cellebrite as evidence; where’s yours? (No, the fact that security vulnerabilities continue to be filed will not suffice. Security is best judged by the scope of and injury caused by successful exploits.)

Because doctors are human and fallible operating in suboptimal systems. Don't want to provide me with a low risk, potentially high reward, low cost intervention? I'll shop until I find a doctor who will, or source it myself. Suboptimal systems and practitioners of various quality require advocating for one's self. I had to twist Planned Parenthood's arm to get Gardasil before it was approved for older adults, even though I was paying cash out of pocket, but had no problem with a trusted PCP providing me Metformin, GLP-1 prescriptions, etc simply by arguing my case and meeting sufficient criteria it would not come back to bite them.

That's my feeling as well, I work on a fairly large and old code base I know pretty well, and generally Claude doesn't build things really faster than I would and then I spend more time reviewing. I end up using it for the most boring tasks (like dumb refactoring/code reorganization) where review is dumb as well and try to have it work when I'm not myself coding (like during meetings etc), this way I never lose time.

They are fragile, they sound terrible. Unless you had a very expensive player, they also introduced a wobble in the sound that drives me fucking crazy.

Yes, there is cover art, I miss decent cover art and the thought that some people put into it.

VHS can also fuck right off. Sure I loved the stuff that was on them as a kid, but I fucking hated them as a medium. A nice Humax from the early 2000s obliterated VHSs.

Don't get me wrong, everything else about digital media suck arse, the shitty player and bollocks practices. But the experience of the media it's self is far far better.

The problem in Europe is that Whatsapp has become the standard for mobile messaging, and it's only available on Android and iOS

This really nerfs the whole dumbphone movement for Europeans, which should be a key market.

I went on holiday with someone a few weeks ago who is toughing it out with a no-Whatsapp dumbphone. He missed the train home because he got locked out of the holiday cottage and couldn't get in touch with anyone.

I see what you're saying, and I recognize that a coding agent will spit out something usable, but it still feels wrong. When a service provider puts out an SDK, they are responsible for it and are incentivized to update it when their API updates. If I ask an LLM to generate an SDK for me, then I am responsible for the SDK code despite the fact that I am not responsible for the API itself. This is not good Conway's Law alignment; it's the kind of thing you do when you have no other choice but to accept the debt that comes with it.

> Most bug trackers have ways to triage submissions. When a rando submits something, it has status "unconfirmed". Developers can then recategorize it, delete it, mark it as invalid, confirm that it's a real bug and mark it "confirmed", etc.

All of this is possible on GitHub issues and is in fact done by many projects, by this metric I dont see how GitHub Issues is any different than say, JIRA. In both cases, as you mentioned, someone needs to triage those issues, which would, of course, be the developers as well. Nothing gained, nothing lost.
