Why push out something half baked? You are essentially stabbing your users in the back, some of us depend on those add-ons to get through the working day. To come into the office one day and to find your work environment irreversibly borked is not something that I find it all that easy to forgive. You have a very large responsibility to your users to not mess up their workflows. Better to keep your update in-house until you are done than to push something half baked and not backwards compatible.

'a bit bumpy' doesn't begin to describe it, until this day there are many ways in which the current iteration of FireFox is behind where 56 was.
Why AI in particular? Wouldn't any non-AI based system that has 'a direct impact on human rights, privacy, employment or other social issues' tread the same waters?

Besides, 'ethics" is a fairly fluent concept that has been reified very differently in different societies around the world, despite Silicon Valley seemingly denying this diversity and projecting their own instance as a global norm.
Hah, weird. Is this sentence in the last paragraph their angle?:

> And every American can save more water at home in multiple ways, from taking shorter showers to not rinsing dishes under a running faucet before loading them into a dishwasher, a practice that wastes around 20 gallons of water for each load.

I suspect this is all about Siri. They went from being top of the game in personal assistants to being a second stringer. Apple can't compete with Google Assistant without the data set and analytics. Personal assistants and web search are two sides of the same coin.

There are reports that right now Applebot is being used to scrape the content used by Siri. If youre already scraping the web, indexing it and building search and analytics services on top of it for Siri, user facing search is just a short step to take.
Sure, now you get to enjoy all those PS4 optimizations, and watchOS bitcode portability fixes in LLVM.

They don't upstream everything, while reducing their development costs, that is the point.

This is a useful point. The beginning learner needs more straightforward instruction -- just knowledge transfer -- whereas the learner with a basis of knowledge can spend more time exploring, making mistakes.

The issue comes in when a student is so accustomed to being fed information that they bristle at being asked to think.

This point also suggests a flaw in the online MasterClass format. In a traditional music master class, someone who is already very very good at singing or playing an instrument comes out, performs a song, and then is corrected by the "master." Then they do it again, etc. An online "masterclass" is in fact a lecture-style course, which is really better suited to beginners.
I would think that they can leverage a custom search engine in more flexible ways than Google to improve UX.

Also, Apples main revenue isn’t hardware but services IIRC. They’re not a hardware company.
CRuby could still be much better at CoW. In theory, a forked process only needs a similar memory allocation to a pthread. In practice the runtime writes in a bunch of these inherited pages and fucks it up. malloc-ed memory is usually bigger than the "Ruby heap" so that kind of limits the impact you can have by trying to not write/re-write.
IMO compiling sqlite to webassembly is a better approach than declaring a specific implementation a standard and integrating it in browsers.
I always enjoy seeing honest write ups like this one. They're rather difficult to find, unlike the "entrepreneur porn" that usually gets shared.
Committing the faux pas of replying to myself, here's another take:

That makes assumptions that you have an outdoor space / back yard available for a compost bin and a practical use for said compost, and that's becoming a rarity for a lot of people.

I mean I was finally able to afford a two bedroom house with a modest back yard after nearly ten years living in student housing (the last one of which was more expensive than affordable rental housing, but there's a 10-15 year waiting list for that) so I could probably go for it (don't really have the space or the need for compost though).
- spending funds donated for browser support on frivolous nonsense that nobody wanted

- not allowing for earmarking of donations for specific projects

- breaking user trust repeatedly

- firing a large fraction of employees the evening prior to picking up funding (or because of, hard to see cause and effect separate here), almost ensuring that everybody else who is capable will jump ship or at a minimum work on polishing up their resume.

- moving income derived from one project to support others that can't stand alone

- allowing a vast gap to come into existence between how the outside world sees the company vs how the company sees itself

- chasing lofty, highbrow future goals and vague missions at the expense of squandering market share and user goodwill for existing products

- prioritizing new and shiny (but unproven) stuff over core and mission critical stuff

Do you want me to go on?
I remember there was a similar trick that hides data in GZip streams in its FCOMMENT block.

Totally agree. University isn't the only signal for need to be discounted. I think that JetBrains' license style (company pay more but individual can use products for work) is reasonable.

We have the regions in Sweden too, and they too do their own thing. I think it might be better in 5 to 10 years, because the national parliament decided to integrate the software.
I was thrown by that at first but it sounds about right if accuracy means any of these things:

The same AST graph.

The same types.

The same text tokens.

I assume they’re talking about Hex Rays. Optimizing compilers result in different code structure than your input, and Hex Rays takes many liberties on output. It’s not _trying_ to match the input perfectly, it’s trying to emit valid C that a human can understand. It’s full of casts and weird control flow. A break might turn into a goto. Functions will be inlined. Structure and class information is lost. A switch might turn into a few if statements, in the wrong order.

Main caveats:

- Hex Rays output is best when massaged by an experienced user (which is the primary mode of use. It’s an interactive tool, not a one way transform). I assume that didn’t happen here.

- The accuracy is probably based on literal structure or tokens, and Hex Rays doesn’t (and probably shouldn’t) try to guess the original structure to that degree. Decompiler output is noisy.
This is very nitpicky, but does adding extra data at the bottom of the image count as steganography? I've always thought of steganography as something that is very hard to detect, like changing the LSB of each pixel to a part of your message.
The same is true of non-gpl work.

Half the linux foundation's funding comes from 6 companies. Not to mention the full time employees paid to work on it. And I find that there's similar patterns in a lot of other widely used gpl software. Similarly, MIT/Apache software gets tons of contributions from non-corp people too.
It's not churn for churn's sake. But having a policy of having drivers in-tree and explicitly not caring about out-of-tree stuff allows them a relatively free hand to improve the internals. Which is then seen as churn by out-of-tree code.
What if the private sector were responsible for California wildfires?
Nice score, but why do you think that guy wanted to buy it? Little revenue/userbase. Moreover, he or some contractor could have built the same product in a weekend.

Also, assuming you get your money in 24 months and using a discounting factor of 5% (which is either much too high or much too low), you are looking at a little over 28k, not 30k.
> "One of the challenges to building an entirely new kernel is the vast amount of hardware support in the form of drivers [..]"

This reminds me of an interview with Linus Torvalds from many many years ago, when he was still very young. The interviewer asked him if he was afraid of getting replaced by someone young and hungry. Torvalds shrugged it of with something along the lines of: Nah, no one likes to do driver development.
It does, problem is i am in IST Timezone, Will that work for the team ?
I respect developers who make that work, but the development experience over SSH (vim, etc) is never as good as local development. You can't use vs code. You have to deal with lag delaying keystrokes. If you download a file and want to copy it into your dev environment you need to SCP it over. If you want to test a network service its nontrivial to point your local browser at the remote machine. If you sleep your laptop and open it again, you need to reconnect your SSH sessions. Etc etc.

A lot of these issues can be solved with enough extra work setting everything up - but that completely defeats the point. "no setup, no hassle" is never my experience.
I think the more important question he didn't answer was "Why?" he wants a database like that.
That wouldn't work for HTTP(S) or anything else that works over TCP since the reply would go towards the fake source IP address, thus the attacker couldn't even get past the 3-way TCP handshake.

Wow, that's a neat trick, how do you manage it?
MbedTLS vs. BoringSSL
And Searx is only useful in English or so it seems.
The OpenSUSE distros--Leap and Tumbleweed--don't get a lot of attention but they're worthy, relatively easy to use, alternatives to Ubuntu and Arch respectively.

Leap is an LTS distro that is more up to date than Ubuntu LTS and Tumbleweed is a rolling release that has enough QA that it doesn't blow up as frequently as Arch.
How is it a bait and switch? Seems like that kind of framing would apply to the introduction of any new tax which seems immature to me.

I do hope the 10 year thing takes into account how long you’ve been in the state and how much you earned within the state.

Remember. You’re only getting taxed on the amount over >30mil in assets (first 30 million isn’t taxable). That’s quite a lot of money before a very small tax begins to be levied.

I do hope there’s also allowances for income tied up in illiquid investments (eg private business investments). I would also worry about taxation on net worth that hasn’t been realized (eg private company that does a valuation that suddenly puts you over the 30 mil threshold). These seem like important nuances that could quickly torpedo any benefits.
It exists to avoid the courts stepping in to regulate them. If it weren't for the bar association keeping the worst out of view there would be a lot more lawyers reprimanded by judges instead. This is probably efficient, but not a sign that the bar association serves individual lawyers. It serves them collectively by keeping the dirty laundry within the organization rather than to submit to outside regulation.

In my experience, Apple Maps has been more up to date with recent changes to roads here in Norway. There was a new tunnel here recently, and it was updated in Apple Maps when it opened, while with Google Maps it took a while.

I'm guessing that it depends a lot on the area. Google Maps is still probably better in most places, but Apple Maps is catching up and may be better in some populated places. It's impressive considering the head-start Google has.

Apple should add an option of OpenStreetMaps overlay or something. OSM has been better than Google Maps in mapping paths in the forest and such here.
Also, a key idea of Graeber's book is that money is in fact debt (the example with English soldiers checks being used as bills in Hong Kong bars is quite striking in my opinion).

Money is basically a small abstraction over explicit debt bonds linked to material goods, making it more easily exchangeable.

This comes from the fact most economic chains are far from synchronous (example: a farmer needing tools to prepare his field, but being able to pay for said tools only after the harvest, the blacksmith needing coal and iron ore to produce said tools, but not being able to pay until the farmer has paid him, etc).

In this context, the banker (or any other lender) acts as an intermediary, evaluating if the debt can be repaid and bearing the risk instead of the creditor for a fee.
Specifically with PNG it has a concept of "private" chunks which you can use to store arbitrary data. Conforming decoders will ignore these chunks, and may or may not drop them if the file is modified. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Network_Graphics#%22C...
It might help to think of Palantir itself, and all the other tech giants as artificial intelligences.
“However, is it considered Time Machine when an iDevice backs itself up to the cloud?”

No. Strictly speaking, iCloud doesn’t even do backups; it syncs data. Difference is that, with backups, you can get a copy back if you accidentally throw away a file. You typically also have multiple ‘old’ copies.

iWork apps (1) kind-of have backups in the form of versions that get synced to the cloud (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205411), but I think that’s implemented independently from iCloud’s syncing (You can use it to have multiple versions of a document locally, too)

(1) Third-party apps can use this, too (https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guideline...), but I wouldn’t know how commonly this is used
twisting the truth shouldn't be expected.
Haven’t you heard people whine about how Apple is so much about privacy but they take money from Google to have it as the default search?

They don’t have Google as the default search because of the money, they have it because they think it is the best. Even despite the privacy problems and the control this grants Google.

How does a maps service sell more hardware? Because using their own maps service Apple can completely control the experience.

Now maps was hard and search is much harder still so we may very well never see this released. But even then they can use this as leverage while negotiating with Google, both for money and for control.

I would prefer those sensor by the side so that when the bin senses someone is near it automatically opens up eliminating the need to wave first.
The commercial decompiler they compared to is RetDec, which is not really a competent commercial decompiler. By "the commercial decompiler" I was expecting to see IDA Pro, the de-facto standard of this industry. Or at least Ghidra if they need an open source & free one.

Also, I'd argue their benchmark is unfair. Checkout the appendix F, in the second example RetDec did actually produced correct result (though its output is not the most readable and it didn't de-optimize enough to remove noises introduced by compiler optimization), but they dismissed it as "difficult for human understanding". And in the first example I suspect they hand-picked a case where RetDec failed to perform function signature recovery because the function argument is floating point.

Edit: also, they run their benchmark on MIPS, because apparently their NN performs worse on x86 than MIPS. But no traditional decompiler was heavily optimized for MIPS.
Could anyone post the answer? I am sure it can be stated in three sentences.
Slightly off-topic, but any personal experiences on how to get involved in the ecom space? Or if you can point me to any online forums, that would also be appreciated. I'm aware of ecom-reddit.

I'd love to hear stories on running a online store, consulting in the space or building software around the platforms (like Shopify).

A few examples of Apple begrudgingly admitting fault after five years of miserable failure in something that would bankrupt a smaller company can very reasonably be described as "Apple's inability to admit fault."

If they had been fixed in 30 days then maybe you could argue they were good examples.

Most of CA water goes to crops we export. During CA mega drought, we were sending alfafa to China in the shipping containers that would otherwise go empty. In this bizarro world, it was cheaper to ship to China than it was to truck it to dairy farms within CA. It was legit Bizarro World.
I guess that's where vscode's remote ssh extension comes into play.

There's things to be said about it being closed source, but it _definitely_ also removes, IMO, the pain points of remote editing.
Even worse, they are talking about RetDec, which by no means is a commercial decompiler. I mean, not even Ghidra.

I guess their accuracy means "the same AST", because according to Appendix F of this paper they showed at least one case where RetDec did produced a correct decompilation, but with optimization quirks so it doesn't look like exactly same as the original.
32 bits isn't really enough. One uses 24 bits for RGB, and the remaining 8 bits aren't really enough for the remaining graphics renditions that a modern terminal emulator should support.

Factor in things like the KiTTY underlining system, invisible, the little-recognized new (sic!) ECMA-48:1991 graphic renditions (encircled, framed, and overlined), and strikethrough; and one actually needs 13 to 14 bits (depending from how far one takes the KiTTY underlining system).

Moreover: No-one doing this style of terminal emulator really does Unicode properly. To do so actually involves having a string of one or more code points per cell, not simply exactly one. Some of the terminal emulators based upon external GUIs (e.g. X11) do do that, or approach it. (Although at the same time they take a giant leap backwards from video terminal semantics to paper terminal semantics, so it is a matter of swings and roundabouts. See https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/593613/5132 .)
Sorry, brain seemed to filter away the crucial "almost".
