I test drived a car days ago. I turned on the engine and the radio started playing pretty loud. I tried to turn it off because I wanted to listen to the car during the test and talk with the seller on the passenger seat. The two of us started fiddling with the touch screen and the buttons around it. He eventually managed to turn off the screen which had the side effect of turning off the radio. I joked about doing the same while driving and crashing into something while my eyes were where they shouldn't be.

Contrast that with the cars of a car sharing service I'm using. They have a big circular button with the usual on/off icon close to their screen, encircled by a volume gauge. You understand what it is as soon as you see it.
Can iar still make this?

It is a contractual obligation with the product manufacturer.

My dream has always been for one of the consoles to buy the scraps of Flash from Adobe, add good controller/save support, and then open it up to developers to make 2D games. Having shipped games in Java, Flash/AS3, haxe, objective c, swift, javascript, unity -- I've never been as productive and happy as when I was using Flash. Swift/SpriteKit is pretty nice, but I'm tired of the Apple treadmill and seeing my games die after a few years unless I put more work into them.
>"A fossil natural nuclear fission reactor is a uranium deposit where self-sustaining nuclear chain reactions have occurred. This can be examined by analysis of isotope ratios. The conditions under which a natural nuclear reactor could exist had been predicted in 1956 by Paul Kazuo Kuroda.[1] The phenomenon was discovered in 1972 in Oklo, Gabon by French physicist Francis Perrin under conditions very similar to what was predicted."
Some Mexican workers get a dramatic quality of life improvement. Others become unemployed as demand drops alongside the increased car price and as the "automate or not" formula gets tipped a little more against them.
My project is ~3.6 million lines of code with a 300 ms incremental null build and a 2-10s touch-a-header-file build. I only generate a few hundred exes, and most of the code lives in a single dylib.

I know that's not large, but I've got one Makefile that's only about 200 lines long. It's a pretty good trade-off.
Wow, every paragraph has a great story!

Sure, but that ignores the reason why sites like Newgrounds had the massive library they did, you could get paid to put your content on newgrounds because you got a slice of the ad revenue. Massive games libraries like Newgrounds didn’t exist for solely for artistic expression

This is good to know. You can get replacement USB-C boards[1] for the 2016/2017 MBP, and I've been wondering whether they have the improved ports that newer model years got, or whether the replacement board would wear out as quickly as the original board. Your experience suggests that maybe they're using better ports.

> "Sharding is always something you do on day 1 for every project ... SPOF ..."

Cannot agree with that. If one does that or not, would depend on things like Service Level Agreements (SLA) — and one can have a pretty high SLA uptime %, without sharding, e.g. if there's an underlying pretty stable hosting provider that live migrates if there's a hardware failure.

Thanks for writing about the last time you used Redis. Interesting to hear that, in that case, the machines had sth like 64 – 128 RAM, and 250k – 500k RPS. Yes I agree that I'd need to benchmark and think about what type of machine(s) to use (some time later — a bit too early for that now). Sounds as if you are / were a pretty large company / project, needing that much memory and machines :- )
Some websites will restrict search or other behavior if your VPN is in a major public cloud, such as AWS, as it's an indicator that you might be trying to scrape their site. For example, you can't watch Netflix or purchase from Nike from an AWS IP. I believe in Nike's case they are trying to prevent people from automating the buying of limited edition sneakers.
Loot boxes: Lords call for 'immediate' gambling regulation
The independent repair program is bullshit and is just a marketing move to try to appear good and avoid regulation being passed. Louis Rossmann (a popular unauthorized repair shop owner) explains it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rCUF-V1esM
It's not rocket science, and there are other methods available as well. It does take a lot of energy and time though. Probably easier for a low tech setup to just bombard U-238 with thermal neutrons.

Once you get enough U-235, just use beryllium to reflect the neutrons back in and add a moderator(water, graphite, etc). Just don't be anywhere near it when it finally goes critical.
Just to state the obvious: silence very much is not consent.

Does brand advertising even work on FB? All these big brands pulling out seems like PR more than anything that is really going to hurt FB long term. Seems like the big money is in D2C and retargeting, which (AFAIK) is not cost effective for the big brand advertisers.
Funny you mention tracking, one of the few modifications made to the Space Jam website at some point in the past 24 years was the addition of both Adobe and Google analytics.

Here's a calibration guide for a recent TV: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/lg/b8-oled/settings

A quick look at the screenshots will give you an idea of the sheer number of settings. Can you fathom the sheer size, and awful daily usability, of a TV remote that would expose physical controls for all these settings?

Cars are becoming this way too. One example is ambient lighting customization in newer luxury cars.

You can't have physical buttons for all this stuff. It just doesn't scale.

Edit: I feel we were stuck for a decade in this worst-of-both-worlds situation where the number of features were exploding but could still be crammed into a 50-button TV remote or car dashboard [1]. Now that features have grown even beyond that, manufacturers are forced to move less-frequently used features into an alternate interaction mechanism. For cars, that's often a touchscreen; for TVs, that can be a remote that doubles as a pointer, allowing to control a TV like a mouse controls a computer. Thanks to that, my current car that I linked earlier [2] looks much closer to the very simple and usable car I drove as a teenager [3], both of which are IMO much more usable for an untrained user than [1]. This doesn't mean I think the Mercedes dashboard is bad; it's an AMG car, so targeted to enthusiasts who may appreciate having a physical button for traction control. But I don't think it would make sense to expose this button in an entry-level commuter car like mine.

Don't these kinds of frankenstein mashups of different malware components of various quality occur pretty often, is there some reason the interviewees and reporter imply this is a mystery? Or are all the components previously unseen? If the latter, then would warrant speculation of how the competently implemented stack was burned by someone who didn't know how to set up the monetization properly.
This seems like the largest misconception of what FB is about. Your feed doesn't matter. We can all pretend to mass #deletefb, but you have already given enough data that they can carry it through all these "properties" without much loss.

They have pretty much every app, website, device manufacturer in their pocket.

It's sick what VC funded diarrhea can accomplish. The fake liberal crap that these companies put out is at odds with their business model that eat away at the societal fabric in a meaningless manner.

Supreme Court ruling forces taxpayers to pay for private religious schools.
Considering they're already being ripped off anyway, and most consumers don't know they're "smart", the margins would be higher selling a "dumb" cable that costs less to make, at the same price as they sell them at today.
Proactively doing the things that the ethicists are calling for. Use Model cards for any model. Actively think about and discuss the limitations the model, intended uses, etc. That goes for everyone.

For someone like Yann specifically? Publicly state that the ML scene is optimizing in a myopic way, and invest in doing so less myopically. For example, I think the translation space has a clear goal and the right goal and is making strides in improving language models in many useful ways.

Ultimately, if there aren't ethical and useful ways to apply facial recognition, leaders should be steering people away from those research topics.
We have massive unemployment. A disease with no end. Massive deficits. Massive Debt. Yet we are at an all time high. Trying to predict stock prices is hard. In general the markets will go up, but trying to predict day to day prices is hard.
Those cheap power supplies are ubiquitous, so it's more about Apple building their cables to exist in the built environment than dealing with the fallout of consumers busting up their expensive phones by charging them on whatever's lying around.

Guarantee there was a consumer study where they compared reactions between these scenario.
It’s one of those things that people think is a grand idea, right up until it’s been in force for a few weeks and it turns out that China is reading all the internal US message traffic.

The favicons on the duckduckgo browser are often worse than other browsers in my opinion. For example the BBC website where DDG interestingly enough just uses /favicon.ico and the other browsers use the apple touch icon. (Information I found from just looking at the pages headers)

Don't really understand why they do extra work to get worse results... This feels to me slightly worse than just a privacy concern, it's a misunderstanding of their domain which leads me to the question of what else do they not fully understand.

The good news is that you can have the DDG search engine as a default in other browsers.

(I understand that the DDG browser is probably not their main focus and any lack of knowledge can potentially be just on their mobile browser.)

That's complete BS.
Speeds have not been updated to match the technical characteristics of modern cars. There's a reason why Germany doesn't even have a speed limit - the limit itself is pointless. They only fine you for dangerous driving.
Same. I should note that I'm a generally thoughtful person and am careful with my electronics. I don't have kids. My cats don't eat cables.

That said, I travel plenty, and I shove cables into my bag like anyone else. I can't think of a single cable for a single product (Apple or non-Apple) that I've destroyed. Some peoples' cables look like they get slammed in a car door twice a day every day.

Workers owning the means of production is not in fact one of the major factions in US politics, regardless of how much Twitter leftists and Republicans would like you to believe that.
I'd love a computer like the Raspberry Pi -- but one where every chip on the system board is "plug-and-play", that is, all of the chips have pins, and all are pushed into sockets such that any one of them could easily be pulled and replaced by another chip that matches the pinout for the given chip, with no desoldering or re-soldering...

One of the reasons I like Metafilter is the community.
Yes, it's way too low. Seeing companies cheapen out on bug bounties makes me feel less secure about them. It shows that they don't believe in the importance of security, provides less incentives for ethical hackers to find security issues and it means that less ethical hackers will be that much more tempted to use vulnerabilities they've found unethically.

I think you just wrote "my preferred argument disagrees with yours, and there's no reason for us to consider any other".
Depends on the implementation. Like others said GraalVM doens't support it, GCJ has (had?) a JVM interpreter in the runtime to handle non-static stuff, or you could compile dynamically loaded classes separately to native code and later load them on the fly.
What is your argument that it's still bad? That was kind of a non-sequitur. If we have a model that takes in skull measurements and accurately predicts whether you are an introvert or extrovert...what is the problem with that?

Simple applications that don't use reflection are pretty easy to compile with graal native image.

You absolutely don't need to use a framework like micronaut.
You do however need to understand what libraries you are using, and if/how they use reflection and dynamic class generation.
That's true, but that small amount of effort is still about 1000x more than is required to use Instagram.

And it was really the discovery of such web pages back then that was the thrill. It really did feel like exploring an alien planet or following a treasure map of link exchanges. Each click was an investment of a couple minutes at the rate pages loaded, so you really couldn't explore every link. And browsers didn't have tabs -- you were looking at one page at a time and maybe bookmarking it for later.

#1 might be confused for not finding the intended result, but could be discerned after looking a bit more.

Also, if a lot of people add in "-site:pinterest.*" (or click on pinterest sites but come back, then find the intended result) that might be a hint it's not adding real value.
