Copying the full filesystem should've worked for OS X too, though not copying merely the contents (i.e., you need FS-level metadata).

But yes, from OS X you needed a secondary boot loader (BootX) to be discovered by OpenFirmware, whereas for classic Mac OS OpenFirmware itself found the payload to boot (which differed between Old World and New World systems).

With normal shorting the number of shares being traded is no greater than the float. Only with naked shorting can there be more shares traded than float, as in the parent's example. Interestingly, in both cases the short interest can be greater than 100%.

My understanding is that naked shorting can be used to artificially lower the stock price by increasing the supply with the ultimate goal of driving the company into bankruptcy.

So on one side you have illegal(?) market manipulation benefiting sophisticated traders and on the other you have companies that are presumably creating jobs and generating something of value being destroyed as a result of financial engineering.

You can decide if that's upsetting or not.
Their claimed reasoning for seizing control is "election fraud". Sound familiar?

This is why many of us internationals get concerned about American politics, because where America goes, others soon follow. Just like some countries used the "war on terror" branding to suppress democratic movements, it was only a matter of time before other authoritarians used "election fraud" to overthrow election results they didn't like. In Myanmar's case the junta's fraud issue is more likely to be that they didn't rig the system enough to their liking.
Nice informative article, Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like they've got plenty of people to work on the shiny new things but nobody to maintain the boring stuff. It's a shame because there are loads of engineers out there who enjoy maintaining stuff over long periods of time and generally doing the boring stuff that makes customers happy. These engineers are really undervalued in companies like Spotify. I think the success of companies like Microsoft is due in a great deal to valuing engineers who do the boring stuff.
I wouldn't do it if I were you. I would rather live the rest of my life comfortably doing a job that I enjoy than go through relative deprivation and poverty for a while just so I can live the rest of my life in the same state of deprivation and poverty but without a job.
Vue3 Calendar Component
Ehh, not really. It depends on how you define functional programming. C# supports first class functions, tuples, some form of pattern matching and LINQ extensions support basic FP collection operations like map (Select), filter (Where) and fold (Aggregate). But I think that's just scratching the surface compared to a "real" FP language:

- F# has function composition operators

- F# functions are curried and support automatic partial application

- F# variables and data structures are immutable by default

- F# has powerful global HM type inference

- F# uses option & result monads over exceptions and null

- F# has algebraic data types with exhaustiveness checking

These capabilities make writing code in F# a very different experience from C#. Some of these can be added to C# as features, but many things are fundamental parts of language design that are hard to change afterwards.
But the screen reader needs to say the word, and the pronounciation of "coin" isn't the same in every language. I don't know about Irish, but it's radically different between French and English, the only sound in common is the "k".

This means that if the screenreader picks the wrong language, then the user has to guess the spelling from the way it's pronounced to understand the text.

Though I'll concede that right now on the web it isn't much better; but that's a failing of publishing tools, not the format.

Literal victim blaming.
FYI, in situations like this the best way is to:

1. Register your videos and images with the USCO. It'll cost <$100.

2. You can now file DMCA takedowns. Send one to Apple with the USCO registration ID and a copy of the image and a link to the app in question.

3. Apple will either immediately remove that fake app, or be liable for up to $350k in punitive damages for wilful infringement and lose all DMCA protection.

4. If Apple didn't react a week later, approach a lawyer. They'll likely be willing to work purely for 50% commission, because it'll be a slam dunk in court.

5. Repeat the same with Facebook / Youtube if they advertise there with your images or videos. Take Screenshots and write down the url and date and time.

Of course, one would hope that Apple will do the right thing, but it's also reasonably easy to force their hand.

That said, I don't know anyone for whom app development worked out financially if you fairly price your own labor. So maybe just stay away from cheap apps in general.

I've only skimmed through but from the author's affiliation and the year of publication I think this may well have been one of the parallel logic programming languages that were originally proposed for Japan's Fifth Generation Computer project:

The Fifth Generation Computer Systems (FGCS) was an initiative by Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), begun in 1982, to create computers using massively parallel computing and logic programming. It was to be the result of a massive government/industry research project in Japan during the 1980s. It aimed to create an "epoch-making computer" with supercomputer-like performance and to provide a platform for future developments in artificial intelligence.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_generation_computer

Edit: Oh, I see. GHC was a precursor of the logic programming language ultimately adopted as the FGC's core language:

Shapiro's work on Concurrent Prolog inspired a change in the direction of the FGCS from focusing on parallel implementation of Prolog to the focus on concurrent logic programming as the software foundation for the project. It also inspired the concurrent logic programming language Guarded Horn Clauses (GHC) by Ueda, which was the basis of KL1, the programming language that was finally designed and implemented by the FGCS project as its core programming language.

(Same source as above)

Edit 2: Another hint is in the name of the publication this appeared in: *Programming of Future Generation Computers*. A few publications from that time had titles like "New Generation Computing" etc. and the project was launched and managed by the "Institute for New Generation Computer Technology". So basically everything with "new generation" or "future generation" etc. in its title from that time is likely to have been part of the FGCS project.

This is a brilliant little piece of logic programming history - thnanks for posting!

It depends on where you from. If you are average, you may still be better off in US comparing to where you are from. It is all relative.
And if you are top 5 or 10% and still face problems, it is actually good for the world. Which means some people will make a decision moving to another place and create opportunities for everyone to grow.

I think you're misrepresenting his post. He isn't blaming the victims of being scammed, but wondering why Apple hasn't noticed or taken action after they probably (/hopefully) are getting lots of chargeback and complaints from users buying this broken app.
There’s not just “1 stock.” Let’s say: A loans a share to be B who sells to C who loans to D and so on. You end up with a multiplier on nominal stock, always, and that’s perfectly normal. I really don’t understand the moralistic argument here, esp. without regard to the underlying value of the original asset. Up is not strictly good.
Yeah, I got the 5700 XT in December for a new build with an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X CPU. Everything works out of the box in Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS). And not just that, but I can run a host of Windows games from Steam using Proton without as much as a single tweak. GTA V ran out of the box, something I never manager to do with my previous build (Nvidia GPU with an Intel i5).

I'm a convert.
Im not sure if libreoffice is fully to blame, I don't think it is possible for applications to _change_ the default app directly themselves, they now need to link to the windows settings screen to have the user manually do it. It is a fair point that libreoffice currently fails to do even this.
If I have a camera with evidence of a crime is probably give it to the police. That’s different from the police going straight to amazon, and different to the police giving free doorbells to people

For police to install a cctv camera requires a due process and safeguards against misuse. They can bypass this by using private cameras - but to actually pay for them is a massive abuse.
Nice! Thats a cool side project. Not sure how Google preemptible can scale though. They are not auto-scaling - so its a fixed cost
I never had crashes but, having switched from a 1070 (proprietary) to a 6800 (open) this week, the experience is far better. Things that were previously nigh-on impossible to get right, like fixing screen tearing, or freesync without bizarre performance penalties, just work now.
This is built in to iTunes (or the Music app on newer macOS), but it comes with caveats - it doesn't really cache the converted files, so if it has to resync them it generates them each time.

I'm pretty sure the switch you're talking about is hardware level. If you want to turn rnnoise on/off you could create a new pcm rather than overriding the default, and then having the software select it. The README example of asoundrcs is for the most part the same, you'd just remove this secion:

pcm.!default {
type asym
playback.pcm "cards.pcm.default"
capture.pcm "rnnoise"
}

As for the second thing, you could do what I do and use pcm_jack, like this:

pcm.!default {
type asym
playback.pcm "plug:jack"
capture.pcm "plug:rnnjack"
}

pcm.rnnjack {
type rnnoise
slave.pcm plug:jack
}

Keep in mind this will need more setup, specifically to set JACK up, and is definitely overkill, but may be fun. Also, this config is how my setup works exactly.

Both naked shorting and regular shorting reduce the price of the stock. In the case of regular shorting, there is a sale offer that wouldn't have been and was, and in the case of naked shorting, there is a buy offer that would have been and wasn't.
6800 is already working fine on release mesa for me. Mightn't have been the case if stock wasn't buggered and I'd have gotten my hands on it a couple of months ago at launch, mind.
Ok, then stop shorting beyond 100%. There are people on HN that are foolish enough to short a stock that is about to be squeezed. Yeah it will go down one day but on that same day the interest payments will have shot up high enough to force you to cover and that's what has driven the price down. Your own bankruptcy.
Very, very much a crank site. One pinch fact, two cups of confusion, and generous splash of seething rage.

I don't know how dashcams are handles here in DK
I know in Germany there was a long debate and forbidden for a long time. I think in Germany they are allowed now, but you can't just drive around and video everything, only if you are involved in a situation. I think the idea is they don't want people driving around, recording everything to be some kind of vigilante police. Even a good driver breaks some minor rule by accident at times.

Edit: In DK you are not allowed to release the Dashcam footage if there is a person in focus / the main subject. And I assume recognizable. Also only on public roads.
Not sure how they handle numberplates.
Israeli Defence Force and Army Lessons for Startup Team Growth
Many Israeli startups and businesses share similar challenges as the Israel Defense Forces. Israel has a Top 20 military despite having a population of just 9.3 million. We don’t mean to compare software development to military service. But, the military can provide businesses valuable lessons for structuring and developing teams capable of punching way above their weight.
I'd add to this as well - if it is something you can't do while working, is it also something you can't do while working say 6 or 9 months out of 12 or even 2 years out of 3? There are probably a lot more options than you think to structure a career in this way.
Avoiding vulnerabilities that leak data to others except themselves you mean :)

I suppose the Chinese state and the apps they control like WeChat is worse in terms of what they do with the data (this social credit score etc). You're right. I was mainly thinking about the collection itself, not what is done with it.

What I mind mainly about Google is that they use it as payment for their services but don't provide any option to opt out and just pay with money. Though I suppose even if they did that at this stage, I wouldn't trust them.
It's also the only provider that I know of that keeps your emails as ransom if you don't continue payment once you're on an upgraded account, instead of downgrading it for you at the billing cycle.

Good thing I only used my PM email to test things out, paid for an upgrade because I liked their public image, only to come back a year later and have no access to anything unless I pay up.
Just tested it and yes, it keeps recommending metal even after adding a handful of obvious non-metal songs.

> Microsoft refuse to accept Smartphone is the future of computing hence there never was MSN on Smartphone.

This. When WhatsApp came around, it wasn't free, but it was the a lightweight cross-platform mobile chat that worked. The only other smartphone-friendly chat app was Blackberry Messenger (BBM) -- and only on Blackberry. iMessage didn't exist.

Google Chat was light and unobtrusive on the desktop, and there were some 3rd party clients for GChat on iOS, but Google then decided to throw out GChat and build a few new chat systems from scratch. MSN Messenger never worked IIRC, and improvements to Skype came too little too late.
True but Huawei is no longer a player on western markets. I didn't really consider them.

This sounds really exciting. I love your live demo, really slick introduction and tutorial - and answered some questions I had about E2E! I've got a couple of other questions though.

> 12 full stack preview environments per commit with up to 16GB of memory and 6 CPUs

Quote from your pricing. If we had a monorepo with over 12 small test/integration jobs, but not 12 full preview environments, is this usable? Are they one and the same, or can we have eg. a suite of unit tests that don't count toward this full preview limit? Do some teams keep some unit tests off Layer and just use you for the more interesting pieces?

Second, do you have any documentation about which databases you support? Concretely can you restore a MongoDB snapshot super-fast?

Third, do you have any story around secrets if we want the staging server to hold some secret API keys? Currently we can do this with AWS (own account) CI machines in Gitlab deploying to ECS with AWS secrets - they stay end-to-end encrypted and nobody sees them. Is there any similar way we can get secrets onto a staging server without you having access to them? I suspect this would be a deal breaker for the staging use case for my team.

Similar to above, our database snapshots are stored in non-public S3 buckets, how would that work? Again currently it's a case of giving the CI AWS role permission to access them, not sure what an equivalent would look like.

One more, is it possible to access the built docker images? We deploy Docker images to ECS, and currently they're the exact same ones built and tested in CI which is a nice reassurance. Do your customers have an out-of-band process for building + deploying to production outside of Layer?

Aside, I think this may be a typo on your pricing page? "We'll never increase your the terms of your bill once you start your subscription."
Fair enough, but I would still maintain that even for "internet culture", don't let journalists shape your views of it.
I’m running a 3060 Ti with a 3600X, and I agree: raytracing isn’t remotely worth it.

DLSS though has been amazing. I hope AMD manages to get close soon with a similar feature, it’s brilliant for 4K gaming, and all my displays are 4K in my house these days.

Theoretically, having their Apple-issued dev certificate revoked (IIUC which bans all apps tied to that certificate) and Apple dev account closed.

But I guess these folks have contingencies to create new dev accounts that look unrelated and still come out net positive of the dev account cost quickly.
Unrelated to Spotify discussion, I remember quite a few years ago that there was research on algorithmically detected fatigue in human voice, the scope of the research was to implement a means of fatigue warning for airline pilots and ATC staff.

My point there is that there is absolutely intrinsic value in researching in this field, but it just seems to be rather misguided whenever companies suffer from a high VC valuation.
The tool uses ffmpeg to load the video, and according to the "anatomy" section it's based on mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, so it's only using the audio to do the alignment.

What do you mean by "temporary dilution of shares"?

All the shareholders will get dividends, for example. The same as if there were no shorts. The only thing that those who lend their shares will lose is the voting rights - and those who don't lend their shares will vote normally.

Nice one! Have to give it a try next time when posting.
I don't know if you are aware of this, but you are basically arguing against the idea of fungibility in finance. It's one of those fundamental concepts that banking is built on.

It's one thing to argue for making sure shorts are well-regulated, but
this something entirely different that has the risk of fundamentally breaking our society.
I've been diving head first into the Gemini space this weekend and discovered some really great content. It takes me back to web of the early 2000's where you had websites with manually curated content (webrings! link rolls!) instead of corporate milked content aggregators.

Combined with my love for minimalistic websites (hello http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/) I find Gemini a perfect small web to enjoy.

I've even started updating my static site generator to update both HTML and Gemini output.
Well if 'readable by a human' would be enough for screen readers then we wouldn't have to worry about accessibility surely?

Your explanation makes a lot of sense. Nonetheless it's bit of a hard sell as it seems to parallel fractional reserve banking to a degree, and we've come to accept the later as the best currently available compromise.
It’s very common to use it on the HTML element, less common to use it on elements further down the tree. Like many accessibility features of the web, it’s often neglected by developers.
They soak up investor money that would have otherwise gone towards sufficiently capitalizing the company (via equity raises).
