If the CloudReady and Chrome OS Linux distros really merge, both could benefit.

CloudReady never included Android apps due to licensing issues. A merger could bring Android apps to more devices.

Also, CloudReady added native support for installing Flatpaks, which Chrome OS lacks. I imagine if Chrome OS really wanted that on their roadmap they would have added it already, but it would be a welcome addition to Chrome OS if they merge it from CloudReady.
How about adding both? These are high-end, expensive phones.
I do this a lot.

Get an EPIRB.
If that’s a problem, have the frontend run a separate query for the article’s comments upon expansion of the section, like the REST version would have done. You still have easier caching in the GQL version.
Is it a symptom of that, or is it a symptom of the fact that it's much easier for the sorts of people who'd go to protests and do things that get them arrested anyway to call themselves journalists?
it's got a similar flavor - that was identity management going down, this is "that email account doesn't exist".
> For Apple, it's their app store. The app store needs to be eliminated. Apple has a problem with not allowing competing browser engines on iOS and misleading people by saying it's for privacy reason. Eliminating the control of the App store from Apple is going to fix the problem.

In your opinion, what is the real reason for no allowing alternative browsers?
I did something similar, opting for the simplicity of the terminal and CLI with https://github.com/kitplummer/clikan - specifically for personal tracking.
Gbaldraw, Multiplayer Painting App
Gbaldraw is an n-user drawing app. It contains a variety of drawing tools, more are being added over time. It also has a chat and private rooms. I'm seeking advice for turning this into a successful business or a potential buyer. I'm also seeking advice about monetization models. It currently allows buying ads for $1/month. It is powered by Redis and Ruby on Rails 6 with WebSockets. I have closed 58 issues on it and only 14 remain. It is a powerful alternative to Microsoft Whiteboard and contains some features missing from that app. My intention is to provide collaborative drawing software for artists and a whiteboarding solution for teams. It is a fully collaborative real time software (not turn based.)
Weird, normal-and-accepted, guess it depends what part of the industry you work in.
...until you consider the looming environmental collapse.
Yep. I love this. If it encourages devs to think twice about incorporating some library from Facebook just for easy login or something then I’ll be happy. In fact I’m going to be looking at these labels and making buying/subscribing decisions from them.
The study compared the MRI scans of people who said they “often” feel lonely with the scans of people do not report feeling that way.

This feels like a faulty approach. There is a world of difference between being alone and feeling alone. You can feel alone without being alone, for example. I am wrapping up my fifth military deployment and as such have spent a considerable amount of time actually alone compared to other adults. From numerous points of observation some adults are more capable of performing, and even possibly appreciating, time apart from other adults more than others. Some people simply cannot handle it and literally go crazy.

If the study does not account for such a foundational distinction I can’t, in good faith, consider the results valid. This distinction is hard to appreciate until you have been alone for an extended period and observed differences of performance relative to other people.
Similarly, “...Sign up and pick a username, for example, "joesmith". Now, any email address ending with ...@joesmith.33mail.comwill…” After the email there should be a space, before "will.”
It blows my mind that we are still doing this.

It's not sustainable, it's not ethical, heck, it's not even good for us. It's a pleasure/habit thing.

The alternatives have been getting a lot better and a lot more popular too. It won't be long till the dairy industry has to do something drastic [0].

Yeah, but for instance I don't remember any callout of the cyberdeck inventory section, which is critical if you're playing a combat hacker. It only occurred to me to look into it after I got past a point where the devs had previously advertised all the hacking opportunities and I realized my character might be underdeveloped there somehow.

Not that I'm complaining much. There've been tons of bugs and wonkiness for me, but I've been enjoying the heck out of the game anyway (wonkiness is par for the course in a AAA open-world game anyway). But it definitely has lots of room for polish. Given how above and beyond they went on TW3, I have no concerns it'll receive it eventually (hopefully -after- a well-deserved Christmas break).
It's well-known the amount of bitcoin mining in China.

For the use case of watching a movie?

You seek back a scene or two while watching something when your mind has wandered away and you missed what was going on a few seconds ago. For some non-neurotypical people it's a really common thing to do while watching a longer movie as it may be hard to follow what's going on otherwise.
Don't underestimate the ability for people to dilute the impact of bad-news as it moves up the chain. I'm sure people play-tested it and tried to raise alarms, but bad news regularly get's softened, maybe to accept less blame/responsibility?
I think what you're missing here is simply how much larger the Internet is now than it was in the romanticized past. If there was ever a time where you could reliably establish a meaningful distribution platform by personally emailing individual webmasters, surely it was a time where there was an extremely small number of regular web visitors. In fact, I would be willing to bet that, right now, the world of independent webmasters using traditional hyperlinks and eschewing the current megaplatforms is vastly larger than it was in the time you're recalling. Which is to say, you can probably reach a larger audience today using those distribution techniques than you could in the time you're recalling. You just will obviously have a much much smaller portion of today's web visitors.
Many things are in fact zero-sum systems.
You need to go to a ripperdoc and buy a cyberdeck upgrade. Then you'll go from only 2 program slots to something like six (depending on the upgrade you buy) as well as more RAM. Really opens up combat hacking options, and as far as I've seen this is never explained.
I'm interested in this too, more I see aws dominating every aspect of our life, more depressed I become.

I see a red flag in the author not including any sort of bullet-point summary of concerns.

If they have serious concerns, and would like clinicians and researchers to take a look at them, it's not going to go too far without some sort of an abstract or brief summary table.

When you structure it instead as a longform blog-post with no summary it limits the ability of busy people to quickly check into and either comment on, validate, or debunk the concerns in a systematic fashion.

A set of very brief bullet points could just be emailed to Pfizer, FDA, whoever with request for comment, and those points could be quickly addressed.
> People will be persuaded to go out of the App Store ecosystem regardless of whether it is good for them or not.

This. We devs do a great/horrible enough job of this already being lazy with implementations and saying “Chrome is the only supported browser”
I concur. Here in India I had once finalized an apartment for rent for around Rs. 35000/month. The landlord bailed at the last moment because an agent found him another tenant willing to pay Rs. 2000 more/month. However:

1. I had approached the landlord directly since his previous tenant had been a friend of mine. So there was no agent fee (one month rent) to be paid.

2. The other tenant moved in almost a month after i was supposed to, so another month's worth of rent lost for him.

The landlord didn't realize it would take him almost 3 years to recoup the losses even with the increased rent. I didn't push my case much, and found someplace else to stay.
I would say the "sauce" as in their willingness to support more hardware. Much of the "driver" support comes from Linux, and Linux already runs on the devices that Cloudready supports.

It the re-use of old hardware that might be thrown away it's just potential, it's happening at scale right now.

My mother used a Thinkpad T450 with Cloudready for years. To her it was a Chromebook with a larger screen than her old 11" one.
It doesn't; it requires you buy into the economics of monopoly.

Please optimize your website for mobile use. I visited your main landing page on my phone and was not able to read anything but the larger headlines without zooming in. In my opinion this adds friction and increases bounce rate a lot. Depending on your traffic, it could be well worth it to add some CSS media queries to make this layout more responsive. I think plenty of people check websites out on mobile first, then come back later if the service is useful for them.
There may have been contract issues, but more likely the cost of an additional year of development vs getting holiday profit made a lot of the decision.
We've seen the outcome of this. It's the turbo echo chamber that people here bemoan all the time.
Fascinating! Any chance I could know which school it is?

I have worked in both computer science and classical music, and found many crossover talents. Two previous Director of Music at my school (UBC in Canada) in the last few decades are both musicians and engineers/physicists.

hmmm .. can you point a superoptimizer at these instruction sequences and have it find the minimal sequence (a single instruction) that implements it?
Concision is a style choice to be used with care. Spending screen space on additional characters and descriptions detracts from the ability to fit more logic on the screen at once and grok the larger flow. Splashing symbolic alphabet soup into your IDE in the name of concision isn't usually a good idea, but naming something "conv" in the immediate local context of a convolutional layer doesn't seem so bad.
You bring up a good point, even though I enjoyed drinking / partying with a startup I worked at in college, an experience I wouldn't trade for anything - at 26 I draw serious boundaries between work "outings" / social groups and personal friend groups. Personally, if I ever had a startup there'd be no alcohol at work and work would be for work. The last thing I need is someone claiming someone said something off color at a work outing. Work friends also get messy when you leave a company for good or bad reasons.
They like the current IP law landscape almost solely because it's the monster they know rather than the monster they don't. Moving the needle to either of the extremes (more ip control vs less) would have some positives but a load of unknown negatives.

Remember, free and open source software is more reliable: (https://www.gnu.org/software/reliability.en.html)

"One reason is that free software gets the whole community involved in working together to fix problems. Users not only report bugs, they even fix bugs and send in fixes. Users work together, conversing by email, to get to the bottom of a problem and make the software work trouble-free."

And Service as a Software Substitute (SaaSS) takes away your freedom: (https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/who-does-that-server-really-s...)

"The basic point is, you can have control over a program someone else wrote (if it's free), but you can never have control over a service someone else runs, so never use a service where in principle a program would do.

With free software, we, the users, take back control of our computing. Proprietary software still exists, but we can exclude it from our lives and many of us have done so. However, we are now offered another tempting way to cede control over our computing: Service as a Software Substitute (SaaSS). For our freedom's sake, we have to reject that too.

With SaaSS, the server operator can change the software in use on the server. He ought to be able to do this, since it's his computer; but the result is the same as using a proprietary application program with a universal back door: someone has the power to silently impose changes in how the user's computing gets done.

Thus, SaaSS is equivalent to running proprietary software with spyware and a universal back door. It gives the server operator unjust power over the user, and that power is something we must resist."
yet nobody complains about the endless onslaught of questions like "How does your company leverage cloud blah blah blah" and "How do I become a software developer without a compsci degree?"
Well yes, that would be a better way to say it, no recursively nested objects, there is a Github discussion about it here:

https://github.com/graphql/graphql-spec/issues/91

And if someone else is interested to take a look at my clone project (it's in Clojure), for the GraphQL issue you can search for "request recursively nested objects".

To have clean URLs I have in the past had a setup like this, which won't be possible anymore:

http://foo.localhost/ -> 127.0.0.1:80
http://bar.localhost/ -> 127.0.0.2:80

This way you can have multiple services running on the default ports.
I'm a theano diehard, and I'll never get over how google came along, introduced a shittier version of theano, garnered worldwide acclaim for it, and killed the better library in the process.

No identifiers in your body? Is there a pill to take to erase one's DNA?
Why would your routes with REST magically be specific and your queries with GraphQL not?
Did you take off the protective cover? It's not very noticeable to the eye, but it greatly diminishes the trackpad response.

I had to stick tape to it to peel off the cover.
I'm not buying either of the points, about romanticising or the portion.

What means to do we have of discovering new content, right now. All the eyeball time on social media, all the searches done for the most part on Google.

You've basically two methods of discovering new things when considering the sum time of everyone who might recommend something they've seen.

That's not romantic at all to me!

FWIW I don't think the link hunting of 20 years ago was systematically better, but it was definitely more individually minded, problem is it's been systematically spammed/undermined as well as the SEO issues I've mentioned so people are generally going to ignore 'link suggestions'

My main point is, diversify away from one or two central platforms. The issue is their consensus of what should and shouldn't be seen and the size of the market behind this.
Please look a little harder.

You articulated my feelings much better than I could've hoped to! I also struggled with mental health qualms through college, largely aided by an ADHD diagnosis at 22. Now that I know I'm on the fringes of the autism scale I've accepted that dating / relationships usually don't provide more social energy or positives than stress, negatives, or situations that make me feel lost or socially distant.

I sort of wonder if I'm giving something up by basically giving up on dating - but I've reached a very warm peace with it all as of late.
Yep, brilliant. I wish there were a tool that could go lowercase all my passwords out there so I could get that extra security.

Making it less terrible after-the-fact, after tons of bad press and outside pressure, and when you desperately need the devs to stay on and fix the problems left after the launch they no doubt told you was not going to work… not sure that deserves much praise.

Don't get me wrong, it's better than not doing it, but it doesn't fix the underlying issue with the system there.

There are definitely some cons, but I don't think the learning curve of the query language is one of them. It's simple enough that you can easily pick it up after 15 mins of reading the docs. There is also a schema proved by every server that tells you exactly what can be queried. This is much nicer than having to refer to documentation of unknown quality before you know what a REST api can provide.

Now actually implementing a server on the other hand is much more difficult.
>we are well past the point of no return

what is this based on? if it's the most recent study from 11/12, there is a lot of debate about the validity of the model they used to arrive at that conclusion.
My company's HR people and recruiter both spelled out the bonus plans in great detail (cash vs equity, what you're rated on, typical amounts for my incoming level, etc etc). Don't just accept wishy-washy answers, this stuff matters.
Gatsby does this, and I’ve built a POC that did the same thing to try to get my workplace to adopt it. I shelved it after a demo as I didn’t love the idea of maintaining a bespoke API solution. But I’m with you, I think it’s a great idea if there were a community around it.
Probably wont help you, but here is the condensed version for me. Born in the early 80s. First home computer mid 90s. I “liked” computers. Took desktop publishing in high school (photoshop, basic design, art classes), worked summers for a photographer doing digital alterations and mock ups. Started university and majored in business, minor CS after a friend told me If I took CS101 intro to programming that he could get me a gig working nights with him. Learned PHP 3 and how to make incredibly insecure web admin stuff and sql. Graduation, worked insurance, investment advisor, construction, and also was a math teacher. All the while, I did some side projects with php/mysql. Lost my teaching gig and put out a tech resume through a recruiter and managed to impress one company to bring me on as a developer. Been doing that since (over a decade), taking on greater responsibility and having a few amazing mentors.

Most of my portfolio at the time I started real dev work was tools to help in the classroom and a few sites made for very small businesses. I didn’t know about source control, unit tests, any of that. I could parse form data and get data in and out of mysql. Somehow I learned proper schema design and enough html/css/js for “dhtml” that I was worth taking a risk on. Probably some books I had read

JAX autograd will work on most any jitted fn - the control-flow limitations are no autograd for code with for/while loops since there's a statically unknowable trip count through the loop body. Much looping code can be handled differentiably using a "scan" though.
I'm not saying it's all bad. The art style is amazing, the sound track is awesome. The lips sync, facial expressions and body movement are pretty damn good. Yes there some nice side missions and the main story line is ok I guess but it's not really cyberpunk or really engaging.
They advertised it as a cyber punk open world RPG and promised so many things and then literally changed the marketing of the game to an action shooter after the game came out...
Agreed. I think the AI could use a lot of work. I notice most enemies have some kind of "approach distance" where they won't come any closer. Perhaps it's intentional but if enemies never come closer to engage, at any point in time or their HP, I can just hide behind something a few meters away and pick them off with quickhacks and headshots, even when they're completely aggro'd.
Is this not a fundamental truth of shareholder value theory? No one should be surprised when a duck quacks.

CloudFormation isn't abandoned and is continuously updated as AWS adds services and options in existing services. The AWS Management Console UI for CloudFormation might be largely abandoned, but the AWS Management Console component for X, in general, seems often to be only distantly related to X in terms of support; the main focus often seems to be on using the service via the API, SDKs, or (for setting up resources) CloudFormation, instead of the console UI.

Hard disagree, I’ve played through both multiple times and was disappointed with how they presented and discussed the metastory even though the gameplay was far more polished and fluid.
