Is that a thing in the US, taking a day off on your birthday? To the best of my knowledge, nobody does that in Europe - certainly not in the Netherlands.
Or they simply decline non risky surgeries because they want to take a day off or leave earlier.
Complete lack of empathy in this response. Not even “I’m sorry to hear this” or “sorry that you had this experience.” You just go straight into defence mode instead of genuinely wanting to understand the posters experience. Sorry, but you don’t get brownie points just for responding as the CEO, when it’s evident in this response and others that you don’t truly care about the people that you are serving. You are much more interested in managing the reputational risk of your business.

I used to use a tiling wm but now that everything supports dragging windows into a side of the screen to make them take up half the screen, I find that my main usecase of tiling wm's: side-by-side windows, is handled well enough that I don't want to put up with the occasional annoyances.

The main pain point of stock ubuntu gnome for me right now is that when I open too many windows, my alt-tab becomes too cluttered, and it would be cool if there was a way to designate windows as background somehow (but not different workspace, I don't like workspaces), so that it would not show up in alt-tab. Ideally I would be able to have like 40 open windows of which just a handful are "active".

EDIT: The side bar could be used for bringing up windows if it didn't combine windows from the same program into one icon - a feature I absolutely loathe - seriously, I have a lot of empty screen real estate but instead you want to hide my windows behind a second click?
What is the absolute worst thing about Lambda School?
I usually use mailinator.com for this purpose. In the past I found other similar services through Google search, but certainly didn't find yours. Probably working on your website SEO will increase your organic sign-ups.
One thing I love about Mailinator is that all inboxes are public, this completely removes the overhead of creating a new email even in a disposable email service like yours. So probably something you may check for your product. Congrats for the achievement!
I suspect a causation along those lines would be that surgeons are less likely to push back surgeries to the day after their birthday if they're worried that the patient may soon become too sick to operate on.
Link to the paper itself [1]. There is a list of secondary analysis in the paper that answer some of the concerns raised in other comments.

For human beings: How about simple plain distraction as the problem?

If you refer to AI there are many examples where the training data is biased. One funny example was enemy tank recognition that saw enemies whenever there was gloomy weather, because the sample images of enemy tanks all where shot at such weather conditions to make them appear sinister to human eyes.

If you refer to a mental model, I guess it might simply be a resource management problem. Just because we do not experience the distraction actively it does not mean it is not there. How exactly distraction is compensated is irrelevant to this explanation. Explaining this with mathematical terms is probably pretty arbitrary and leads to framing (in a psychological sense). But I also like speculating on AI ;)
It wouldn't be hard at all. All the techniques developed by this university rely on cooperating malware on both sides of the airgap (and a pretty small air gap for many of them).

All you need to do is make sure the super AI is air-gapped in such a way that it can't broadcast signals in a way that they can be accidentally interpreted as valid data, and especially not with enough bandwidth to do damage before someone notices. RF is your biggest threat here, you wouldn't want the super AI to actually figure out a way to register on the mobile network using incidental EMI (which these researchers didn't do, this is well beyond the level of this paper, if it's possible at all); a Faraday cage should do it.

The biggest threat of a super AI is that, assuming you let humans interact with it, it's going to convince a human to let it out, knowingly or not. Human brains are a much bigger vulnerability than any of this airgap stuff.
If it really doesn't want to accept emails for addresses that it doesn't know are valid, a well-behaving email server should send temporary failure codes when it can't look up if addresses are valid, and let the sender retry later when the address lookup is working and it can give a definite acceptance or rejection of the email. This is not even remotely a new problem, it comes up in email systems all the time because even at much smaller than Google scale they tend to be distributed systems. Someone screwed up.
Need server on windows and client on linux so this won't work properly yet for me.
I'm nodding in agreement here. For composing I would suggest people also look into cropping the photos before sharing them to get to the golden ratio or rule of thirds. It's usually a really quick and simple edit to make and it makes a huge difference.
I would also add a third useful concept: find ways to hold the camera still when taking the photo. This can be by using a delay timer, or use the volume button instead of the on screen button, or just holding the phone differently.
I can answer you from my perspective. I used i3 and also awesome for some time but they didn't give me real benefits. Instead they made the occasional floating window look and work crappy.

I use byobu(tmux) for managing my terminal splits, which is all i need. I also have removed any window decorations from my terminal. I have shortcuts configured in gnome which let me do the occasional side-by-side windows easily. I rarely use the mouse but I have the option.

Of course if you do a lot of crazy tiling like 3,3,2 or whatever, a tiling window manager might be a good idea. In my experience you just never need that. Maybe I am missing something.
Yes, gmail is complete lock in (with current legislation). You can not move your `@gmail.com` address to another provider eg. Proton.

But there is a case for making legislation forcing email providers to allow moving emails to other providers (how it should be done technically is another question). This is already in effect for telephone numbers many places.
In general I wonder there is some QA/QC process involved in surgery, may be have some sort of independent evaluators observe each surgery and ensure the work is being done upto the laid down guidelines.
Empirical success shows that the GPT-3 model has seen the sequence before(maybe many times).

Transformer architectures do map sequences to sequences. What is not known is that the task of programming is a sequence problem. This experiment seems to suggest that maybe its not a sequence problem.

There are soft limits _everywhere_, to stop people shooting themselves in the foot. Those can be raised by admins after checking the user knows what they are doing.

I do not know what the practical limits are right now; especially I do not know what size hardware AWS run it on.

If you were to search the Cortex Slack you would find people talking about instances with 100 million series, also people talking about work to improve scalability.
Yeah the games company I used to work for has gradually improved over the years - I have one good friend who stayed the whole time, and it's gone from "mandatory unpaid weekends" to "a bit of paid overtime here and there".

The key part I think is just making overtime paid, then the incentives all align much better.
> content you consume

Most content I consume is, like your comment, already shared by users without them receiving any compensation for it. It is usually someone who is not the content creator that profits from content on the internet.
As a consumer I also believe something that needs to be done to regulate big tech, but the problem of directing money into productive capital is huge.

Every unicorn's valuation is basically realized by establishing some sort of monopoly or monopsony. This leads to another less-than-ideal situation, where companies are incentivized to spend money protecting their monopoly instead of innovating. Fundamentally this is bad.

But it turns out that the capital cost of new technology is extremely high, and it becomes a corollary that anyone who wants to spend their lives developing the next technology should locate themselves in the most favorable funding environment.

Europe can avoid being a tech backwater if it can figure out how to provide a favorable funding environment.

One technocratic solution would be to make it the governments problem to reap reasonable returns from tech. Offering every citizen the option of purchasing up to 100.000 euros in tech bonds yielding 5% that EU governments become responsible for investing would unleash trillions of euros while exerting significant pressure on unproductive assets.
Probably an unpopular opinion here, but I do not understand why people prefer tiling window managers. I prefer to have lots of windows open, and being able to position them how I want with the size I want greatly increases my productivity. Tiling window managers makes you conform to their way of working.
While I think the decision is unfortunate this might help understanding it: https://drewdevault.com/2017/10/26/Fuck-you-nvidia.html
You started by comparing Apple to a government. The difference is that the government represents you, while Apple represents their share holders.

Of course my local coffeeshop also represents their owner (no idea if they have share holders), so what's the difference with Apple? Size. I don't know what your local coffeeshop is like, but mine is not a trillion dollar company. Apple is. And Apple's products are used by millions of people all over the world. That means Apple wields a lot of power. They may not be able to lock you in prison, but they are able to block or restrict your usage of your electronic devices. They have a lot of power over other companies that want to provide services through those devices.

And without regulation, all of that power is unchecked; they wield that power for the profit of their shareholders, not for the public good. They have in the past harmed users and companies because Apple saw a way to make more money by monopolising certain functionality.

Most if not all tiling window managers allow you to do that by switching to a floating mode.
I can only imagine the discussion that occurred on moving it from the start to the end. Do leave it up there or do we admit we are evil?
I think it's because most tiling WMs have a really steep learning curve, often not even providing basic things like window title bars or automatic lock/suspend, expecting the users to configure all that to their liking. Perhaps some sort of a gateway drug is needed, something can help introduce people to tiling while also providing good defaults and the usual desktop environment comforts (title bars with buttons, lock/suspend, volume and networking controls, a proper settings app, etc).
This reminds me of a hack that my colleague used to extract data from an "airgapped" device. The device was a computer that had a broken Ethernet card. It wasn't able to send packets but could jam the other cards connected to the Ethernet segment (coax Ethernet - all cards in the local network were galvanically connected to the same wire).

So he wrote a piece of code to transmit bits via the "jammed" and "unjammed" states. This was on DOS, so it was easier due to all the hardware being directly available without OS getting in the way.
Uptimes in Germany are usually 99.9% for most hosters. I think Gmail has lost to all of those yesterday.
For some people, that _is_ their way of working, and it works very well for them. I think it is mainly the quick access with a regular, predictable arrangement completely driven by the keyboard. Low resource usage is a bonus. It is like having some of the benefits of the CLI but in graphical form.
Not a bad idea. Wonder how long they have hidden this add-on since this is the first time I'm hearing about it having been in existence for over an year now. Though for some reason I still don't trust Google to keep their word.

I think uBlock is more than adequate in blocking these & so much more trackers which are so prevalent.
I never agreed. Google just stopped asking after a while. I think I could refer Google to the data protection office, but the chances that they'll actually do anything about it are slim to zero.
> To answer your reductio ad absurdum more directly, if you’re doing something that doesn’t work, it doesn’t make sense to keep doing it.

Getting into your car doesn't get you to work in the morning. Why do it? Because it's a part of a larger process.
More than a decade ago we had to digitize some org’s patient cards into a database. After running few “test” queries against that dataset out of curiosity we found out that you’re less likely to be alcoholic-y if you live on 4-5 floor. The explanation I thought was that they hang out outside, but those who live higher have harder time to go home and prefer to not go. Building with 6+ stories usually have an elevator and “the problem” disappears.
Yeah, they updated their rules page in the last hour.
Why not a combination of the two?
And on top of that the “security” is useless because any software that runs as one's user account can simply do things such as ptrace the compositor or override the compositor in the PATH with a malicious one or LD_PRELOAD the compositor. As soon as malicious software run as one's own user, then that is that and it can do anything that the user can do.

The argument raised against this is that it should be used in conjunction with some measure of a sandboxing technique, and that X11 is “impossible to sandbox”, but X11 sandboxes exist: how they work is a proxy server that sits in between the sandboxed application and the real server that determines what to let through and what not, the sandboxed application thus believes it is the only thing running inside of it's own X11 server, which maps it onto the bigger one.

Then the counter argument is that that “doesn't count” and isn't “true sandboxing”, but that is the exact same technique that sandboxes that use Wayland use for say DBus, or PulseAudio, and has always been the standard way of sandboxing such daemons and servers.

That's always the highly theoretical argument that comes in to defend these promises that are false on a practical level “it doesn't count”, even though the practical result is the same.

All the ways to circumvent Wayland's security “don't count” even though they can all the same be used to compromise it.

I am quite convinced after having spoken with many a Wayland developer that nigh none of them actually care about the “security” they so often talk about: they care about a certain theoretical elegance of a “secure system" that only exists in theory but exists in no reality as something that actually has been practically realized. All the actual, effective, real world ways to pierce it are wished away with that they “don't count” as they don't exist in their theoretical dream world.
I switched to i3 a while ago, and haven't looked back since. Standard drag-based GUIs now seem clumsy and frustrating.
No it isn't. Shareholders have no interest in owning a failing company, it is in their best interests for the company to be sucessful and profitable because they are the ones with skin in the game.
Hint for Windows users that also want to have something like that:

That closest you can probably get to that is with Powertoys FancyZones. Its not exactly a tiling windows manager but its close enough.

Bubblesort appears to be inferior to insertion sort in every single way. It's more complicated, it's slower in every situation. I don't know why you'd ever use it. What's the point of it?
Some people are more productive if they don't have to think about positioning, sizing, and switching between a bunch of overlapping windows. Tiling WMs generally let you set up and save a configuration so that all your programs always open in the same place.
> you will never be able to use someone else’s computer without feeling a seething frustration that it isn’t running i3 with your config...

That's why I try my best to cope with the defaults and change when absolutely necessary. It spares a lot of frustration when you use another config since you can always go vanilla.

RAW naturally doesn't make you a better photographer, but there are clearly benefits that can result in better looking pictures than what the in-camera JPEG conversion is capable of. Not only that, I even see one of RAWs promises fulfilled: That over time, RAW development programs will improve, resulting in better looking images developed from the same RAW. If I develop a RAW taken 15 years ago with a current development program and compare the result to what I got back then, this is clearly the case.
Ah the free software religion, or as I have taken to call it, GNU minus rationale.

-----------------------------

> One reason is that free software gets the whole community involved in working together to fix problems. Users not only report bugs

This works only for popular open source software, and still doesn't apply to infamous Unix mail servers or likes of GNOME. The 'community' is often more interested in adding features than fixing bugs.

> so never use a service where in principle a program would do.

Comfort vs Freedom tradeoff. Sometimes data privacy / freedom isn't just that critical to justify costs and difficulties of self hosting.

> Service as a Software Substitute (SaaSS). For our freedom's sake, we have to reject that too.

For what it is worth, SaaS has only benefited freedom of people working in big corporates. It has loosened the grip of enterprise software directly sold to C-suites by wine-and-dine sales methods.

And know what, software writers have to make good amount of money too. Just giving away free desktop / server software doesn't work out for most developers. I will happily accept if an open core software has a value added SaaS. And "live cheap and write freedom respecting software for some semi-arbitrary definition of freedom", is just disrespectful to talented software developers.

> someone has the power to silently impose changes in how the user's computing gets done.

Again a convinience and security etc.. thing. Most use cases, you don't care.

“Abusability” Testing
I'm having the same experience. I thoroughly enjoy the game, mostly because I'm a sucker for world building. The universe is fantastic, albeit a bit too pubescent and "edgy" at times. It also runs fine on my 1660 super. I don't really mind the "shallowness" of the gameplay mechanics. Horses for courses, I suppose.

But man, oh man, is it buggy. I've never been soft locked this many times in a game before. As a software developer, it's honestly a bit amusing to find the obvious cases where the individual sub systems trip each other up.

Primary offender is the scripted mission system vs. telephone. You get a phone call just as you enter a scripted cutscene? Two calls coming in simultaneously? You start a yellow dialogue while on the phone? Welp, time to reload.
I feel the same way. There are projects like EvilWM, which is still rather nice, that has the 1px border and looks alot like a tiling window manager.

As I get old, I started to look more toward simple Windows managers, like OpenBox. I really do like having the buttons, and a window border I can actually hit with my pointer.

Personally I think it would be fun if someone cloned Windows 3.11 and added a few ekstra keyboard shortcuts.
>Tiling window managers makes you conform to their way of working.

That's not true, i often just use the tab-mode.

Using tiling for a long time, i go berserk having to rearrange window's with the mouse, then one is over the other...etc, it a mess!
> The new Firefox for Android that launched in August loads pages 20 percent faster than at the start of the year making it the fastest Firefox browser ever on Android.

But messes up video experience when going full screen, dropped support for almost all extensions without warning, sometimes I have to restart the app because it freezes, header sometimes doesn't show up when scrolling up and ux is not quite there yet.

I had to downgrade the android app version and don't even get me started on my experience with Firefox on Ubuntu (random crashes, sometimes I can't close tabs or open them, I keep hearing audio from a tab I already closed and some more).

I really love the product and I hope the Firefox teams makes it better.

Sorry for the rant.
That i3 has a floating mode is good, however it's not a good floating mode for a floating-based workflow.
