In other words the DeFi crowd just recreated fiat currency, and an NFT is literally nothing more than any other crypto hash. The ultimate fungible token!

Seriously you proven the point. You bid on token that is supposed to represent something that it actually isn’t tied to at all. So each token is really just a commodity, that suckers think is rare, but since the tokens aren’t actually tied to any object (virtual or physical) through any meaningful access control to enforce exclusivity, the tokens are actually indistinguishable hexcodes. At most it’s license plates rather than cars, but more like trading cards of license plates, since the NFT doesn’t enforce access controls, but the state DMVs — that have nothing to do with the NFTs — do.
it already is!
I'm paraphrasing from memory, but the priest made it clear that the Japanese considered fruit trees unworthy of their garden, not just "requiring different maintenance." (Well, of course, I don't know how fluent the priest's Japanese was, so there might be a game of telephone occurring here ...)
Methinks this would make a useful money laundering scheme because I can’t for the life of me figure out why people would pay millions for a digital image that is posted publicly on the internet.
Agree. The dependency on private services is not appropriate for officials or agencies communicating with the public. This is especially problematic when you consider that the public's responses will be subject to content moderation and censorship based on Twitter's whims.
and how many APs do you have at home?
nothing stopping you from using a local ubiquiti controller though. you aren't tied to their servers if you don't want to use them. that said, they seem pretty problematic from a security standpoint based on these leaks and your networking infra should be rock solid.

The world will be a better place when people are ok being wealthy without feeling the need to make every single penny possible.

Just completely forget "resolution" when talking about CSS pixels as they have nothing to do with the actual resolution (virtual or physical) when it comes to layout. A CSS "pixel" is just another way of saying 1/96th an inch just like saying a pt is 1/72 an inch.

Em is indeed "font size * value" which is the difference, and only difference, vs using pt or px or pc or any other absolute sizing reference. Per CSS spec though this is only a difference for the _developer_ not the _user_ as the other person originally stated - either way on any screen at any zoom the results are identical to the user. Well negating the user only zooming portions of the design which, by definition, is not going to give a proportionately scaled design back. Also you can actually implement this in CSS using px you just need to tie it to calc() - though cleaner to just use em if that's all you wanted to do at that point. Like the original commentor said though, eventually em is going to read back to something which defines font size in absolute measures, such as px or pt, so for all of the debate either way eventually your font is all absolute measured based it's just a matter of what the original measure is currently set to (16px by default).

Which comes to what I really wanted to say after clarifying the above, I like defining the root font size in px and using rem everywhere else. In that way I can think in terms of "I want this header to be 3x as large as the base font on the page", easily change the base font to whatever px value I want (scaling all the page text accordingly), and I don't have to worry about inheritance if I change a parent's font size. Best of both worlds between em and px IMO. Like I said you could get the same thing, or something more advanced even, with calc() and a variable but no reason when rem has been built into browsers for ages.
VHE is implemented and stuck as on indeed.

There's also the fact that only pc and sp are retained on WFI, without the other GPRs.

I honestly don't mind information about crashes being sent as long as it is very sanitized and easy to disable- similar to how Fedora reports issues.

They send only a list of functions on the stack without any of the arguments or data.

Where Google goes too far is sending everything in the name of security or better yet to "serve" the user.

Is there any reason to worry if you run a local controller that doesn't have any connection to a cloud account?
This is a federal agency with legal authority:

1 - why should they have to answer to Amazon on how they conduct elections that they have been handling for longer than Amazon has existed?

2 - since it is Federal, any change to the way they handle things would likely delay the election - but perhaps that's what Amazon is really after - or they're taking a page from the Republicans and will use it to sow fake doubt about the outcome

Pixels are meaningless unless you're an artist, especially with modern graphics APIs where it's often difficult to actually draw individual pixels.

IMO: everyone who's used font size outside college knows what an em is. Just standardize a point size in terms of a physical measurement (maybe stick with 1/72 inches since everyone except Microsoft apparently uses that) and make the "font size" a coefficient that maps ems to inches.

Furthermore: cap height doesn't capture as much as an em does: there's spacing between letters which has little to do with cap height. Everything about this is wrong.
>Does F# not put types first and data second?

The F# and ML view of the world is, roughly, that data and types are not separable in any way that's useful. Types are just how programmers make sense of data, and they exist in every language. The difference is whether or not the compiler will use them to help you make sense of your data as well, or whether you have to do your own manual type-checking.

As for programming with maps the way it's done in Clojure, I would say generally no, that's not idiomatic F#, and it's a big blind spot for F#. OCaml has row polymorphic records, which would be a better fit for the treat-everything-as-a-map style of programming in a static language.
I don't get all this pursuit of consciousness. There isn't anything more to it than continuous stream of associations with feedback. Why would it be impossible for machine to talk to itself in similar manner?

Also many people don't really consciously contemplate stuff like "sometimes wonder if there might also exist a color that mixes the redness of red with the coolness of blue". If the "consciousness turing test" asks them to respond with such material, they would fail it.

The chilling effect is on the prospective unionists -- there isn't much point in being in a union if the union unconditionally accepts orders from your employer.

As a reminder: there is absolutely no evidence of impropriety at any level here. Amazon's demands amount to handwringing and FUD; acquiescing to them sends the message that Amazon, not the union, ultimately calls the shots in union elections.

The whole brands aspect has really confused me. If you search for "nature" on unsplash right now the first result is a picture of a person prominently holding a product in the most blatant product placement way possible. So far they're basically working as banner ads, no sensible user would ever want to use a sponsored photo for their work.

I'm more afraid of how they'll modify their existing products to manipulate users into paying for "Premium" Getty stock photos over the free Unsplash ones :/

> Unemployment laws are such that folks can be forced to take contract gigs

Suitable work definitions can never require you to lose money by working. And that's without the peeing-in-a-bottle type tricks to be more profitable. You're also allowed to include all of your costs (gas, depreciation, etc) in the calculation. If you had a Hummer you'd be paying more for gas than if you had a smart car so the value of the contract changes.

> UBI and national healthcare like we've got up here in Canada would seriously improve lives for folks that find themselves unable to cover expenses without working themselves to the bone

National healthcare is helpful because it covers 'acts of god'. UBI seems like it would be harmful to the economy by inflating itself into irrelevance while destroying wages.

> I think that everyone should have a right to a pleasant life

I think that everyone has the right to pursue that, and must not have unreasonable obstacles placed in their way.

For a Tesla Model 3, the vehicle is about 1600Kg with battery, and the battery is about 500Kg. The battery is heavy, but less than a third of the vehicle weight.

Aircraft, though... Aircraft already have "wet wings", which are fuel tanks. If the battery provided some of the wing's structural strength, that might work. Probably worth trying in military drones first.

Also, the nature of most schooling goes against using it to teach critical thinking. Most schooling is forced on the students. It is difficult, though not impossible, for a system that coerces people to also teach those same people critical thinking. There is an inherent contradiction there.

Sort of. They appear to be in a bit of a holding pattern, having not released a competitive SoC in that space for some years.

The rumor is that the Switch contract only came because Nvidia had a firesale on those older chips that they expected to make their way into flag ship Android devices, but instead sat in inventory for years.

Maybe after the ARM acquisition goes through (if it does), they'll start looking down that line again.
You can run the AP locally with the standalone controller appliance in a container or VM[1]. Pretty simple, and doesn't require a UNBT login. Probably still worth doing a factory reset on your AP first, if you're paranoid like me...

You can use AWS Accounts like microservices. The biggest security walls in AWS are the account barriers. Those have to be specifically configured to cross. Sometimes (1%) its unavoidable, but if you have multiple services running on an account, you force yourself to weave arcane webs of IAM permissions crisscrossing all over to get what you need where. It's a terrible model that people inflict on themselves because it's how everything used to work.

context.Context is used in a number of situations, including for a "don't call it a request-scoped global". And whatever, web frameworks always end up with one of those. Would love to see languages do better, but ok.

My concern with its use in golang is that so much seems to get jammed into it. My experience with it is that it ends up being a holding pen for all the things that other systems do with initialization-time dependency injection / resource lookup sorts of things, but replaced with "oh just pass `ctx` as an argument everywhere".

From what I've seen of Go, it looks like that happens because of the state management idiomatic constraints of the language, which in turn seem GC-related.

In a garbage-collected language, I'd put a bunch of context-y things into some sort of request executor datastructure, the web framework would manage the initialization and retention of that, and request handlers would operate against those intialized data structures. That doesn't line up all that well with idiomatic Go, and so we end up needing to hide those sorts of things somewhere else. Enter context-abuse.

Of course, there are plenty of use cases where those sorts of patterns aren't relevant. Right tool for the job and whatnot.

Again, I'm a casual golang user at best -- I bet I'm missing some newer / better approaches, and would love to learn more about what they are.
Oh yeah, security. Can't wait to see all the exciting new ways the device manufacturers will employ all these features in a user-hostile manner.

Throw the patriotic and military-worshipping stuff out too. It annoys me as much as the "social justice" stuff annoys me. Perhaps more. I'm in principle opposed to the patriotic and military stuff, although I'd probably make an exception if the country was actually being militarily attacked for some reason other than because of blowback for its meddling overseas. I could imagine supporting some social justice messaging in sports, I just don't like it when the messaging is based on highly questionable arguments but promoted as obvious truth. Most BLM-type messaging falls into that category for me. The theory that minorities are disproportionately shot by police started to seem questionable to me once I corrected for things like police encounter rates and homicide rates. I should emphasize, questionable - I'm not saying the theory is false, just that it needs to be investigated further as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not sure. Bullying, offline and online, is rarely done to random people you don't have any connection to and without other people. It either ties into offline, i.e. they're bullying someone they know, or it's an online community thing where some people from some community have fun together bullying someone they might not know.

My point is: in both cases it's not "I'm miserable and unhappy", it's either a community-building thing, or it's a social status thing. If you're bullying someone in school, that's a power move to assert status. They're not unhappy, they're just trying to get ahead; under different circumstances, they'd just mug people to take their money. Now they bully them to get more status.
> We use open source to build our software (hey nothing special here : bazillion companies do that)

That's not true. Supabase improves and builds the open source ecosystem it uses.

In the case of PostgREST, we've added performance improvements that could very well be in a private fork(which other companies have done), but Supabase, in the good spirit of open source, decided to make these changes upstream.

The same goes for realtime, the team has been improving its performance to an enterprise-grade and making all these changes open source.

Even the storage API[1] presented here is OSS.

I believe all of these efforts are a net win for the open source community at large. Zealotry doesn't help anyone.

>Learning languages is relatively simple and enjoyable, especially when the overwhelming majority of those people never end up working on difficult problems in said language.

Learning languages is not simple and enjoyable for everyone, especially not when they're languages with a radically different paradigm. I will definitely look twice at a JavaScript programmer who says they're also interested in ATS and Forth, for example. It should be fairly straightforward to suss out a rough level of understanding, and beyond whether or not learning languages is easy, it's a fairly strong signal of intrinsic interest, which a lot of employers want from their employees.
