It's amusing that the issue is the use of "toot" to refer to a post, which in English is used in the standard idiom of "toot your own horn", directly relevant to the platform's purpose as a social medium.

Meanwhile, the real elephant in the room, is the completely non-sequitur name for the platform - 'Mastodon', best known as an Ice Age giant fauna and also the name of an American heavy metal band that is still one of the top hits on Google for that name.

Whatever they call posts on the platform, the fact is that its usage will remain identically at a few percent of Twitter's.

I do admire the passive elegance. It's interesting that your current water heater continues to use the old vent, rather than just ignoring it in favor of being higher pressure with a relatively inexpensive temperature relief valve. Are the hot water distribution pipes not rated for higher pressure?

How big is that pipe that goes up to the roof? I assume it's covered with something to avoid random debris or animals from getting in?

Find my iPhone data is end to end encrypted.
If your device sees a lost phone nearby, it doesn’t get to know who’s phone - it just sends the encrypted blob to Apple.

Apple then doesn’t even know the location. The lost-phone-owner decrypts it.
They will work if you leave one in a car that you drive often enough, however…
FLoC provides zero control - it's just additional personally identifying data sent by your browser, making tracking easier. It does not actually prevent any existing tracking methods.

Is there one killer app for the iPhone? The cumulative experience is the killer app. Likewise, the persistent AR environment will also show us value from the collective, incremental improvements over non-augmented experiences: the sidewalk up ahead has a splash of black ice, the pollen count is high by the creek so cycle on the main road today, etc.
I have no qualms with using names for it, I am curious why this specific application of supply and demand, which seems obvious to me, was designated a name.

As an illustration, if milk was just discovered to be useful to make cheese, and the demand for milk rises proportionally more than the supply of milk, then the price of milk would rise. As far as I know, there is no specific name for this “phenomenon”, but there is if you substitute labor for milk?

Edit: I sort of see the significance if the claim is that increases in productivity in other sectors will necessarily lead to decreases in supply of labor which will cause prices to rise overall, but is that true?

I can envision a scenario where increases in productivity are putting more people out of work quicker than it is causing people to be in demand, causing wages to stagnate or fall (in real terms)? It might even be happening now.
"Jealous 15 year old uses Apple AirTag to stalk friends"

The main criticism seems to be the flawed connection to sqlite. As useful as Mongita might be, and I don't think anyone is denying that this is good work, it doesn't make sense to compare it to sqlite.
It didn’t use to be a separate model. You used to be able to remove the stand from the standard iMac and attach a Apple VESA mount adapter in its place.

The AirTag network requires other Apple devices to be nearby in order to register the location. The chip itself doesn't have any GPS capabilities. Ultimately it depends where your cat usually goes; if he's surrounded by people or hanging out around sidewalks chances are someone with an iPhone will walk by and automatically update his location. If he's in the forest or in rural areas without any tech nearby, AirTags won't help you until he gets back into civilization.
Robot arms are cool and do all sorts of things human arms can't, however, human arms are way better at manipulating objects in the wild.

I'm currently trying to write a windows app and coming from web development (Python/Django and React) it is bewildering.

Part of the problem is with web development, complicated as it is, the tutorials at least get you to a complete, working example. The windows tutorials seem to be very piecemeal where you start with a mostly complete app and fill in a couple things, but never get the whole picture.

And like in your first link, click on "Desktop". Ok, I want to make a desktop app. Now there are four options WPF, WinForms, UWP and Xamarin. Ok...Why are there four options? What are the differences? Are one or more of them about to be deprecated? What do I need to consider in order to choose one over the others?

I could go on. The windows developer website did point to some helpful C# tutorials and the language is actually pretty nice to work with, but figuring out how to do basic things like -- how do I store state in the application, has been very confusing.
it's almost as if they're paid to. Anything Apple does, it's just 'better/innovative/practical'

Why Cryptocurrency Is A Giant Fraud
> (see wikipedia)

> Note also that the original formulation of the Razor makes no mention of hypotheses, competing or otherwise, or of any requirement for comparisons.

Well, the Wikipedia article states, in the very first line:

> ...or more simply, the simplest explanation is usually the right one.

and further down it defines what a "razor" even is:

> The term razor refers to distinguishing between two hypotheses either by "shaving away" unnecessary assumptions or cutting apart two similar conclusions.

So both of these do seem to directly relate to comparisons. It's not simply a misunderstanding of the term to say that Occam's Razor involves comparisons of competing hypotheses.

> any hypothesis that needs a third person in the car is less simple than a hypothesis that doesn't need a third person in the car.

The trouble is you need to define what you mean by "entities." Obviously this does not need to literally refer to bodies. It means facets and complications of the hypothesis.

So we need to decide which hypothesis requires more entities: one that supposes the possibility of a third person, or one that supposes the possibility of people tricking an autopilot to do what no one believes it ought to be able to do.

The point is, we need something beyond what we have been told. If it were simply "drunk man crashes into tree," we need no further explanations, no further entities. That story explains itself. But if the initial story isn't by itself sufficient -- "autopilot drove itself at high speed in a narrow cul-de-sac with no one in the driver's seat, against all programing and prior experience of Tesla cars" -- then we must hypothesize additional entities. Wonky programming. Hacked system. 160 lb weight on the driver's seat and fake hands on the steering wheel. Third person.

I don't know that the third person hypothesis is, in fact, simpler. But I don't think you can say that Occam's Razor suggests that that should not be a rational hypothesis. I don't know how many additional entities would be required to get a Tesla to do what was suggested in the article.
> Either side can stipulate anything they want in that contract, other than what is disallowed by contract and labor laws (and of course your rights).

Guess what this is disallowed by!

You can write "oh yeah by the way we're not going to pay you for ~75% of your working hours because we're cheap bastards" in the contract all you want, that doesn't make it legal. If they want you to work for them 168 hours a week, they need to pay for it.
With the older models there was actually a way to unclip the base and replace it with a vesa adapter (purchased separately). When they came out with the bulging design with the thin edges they dropped this in favour of a CTO option.

So it's just a continuation of established practice.
Certainly they should share - but must stretches things a little far.

Much in the same way as Amazon should provide their low-tech workers with livable conditions - but unless the law and applicable contracts specify otherwise, there's no must about it.

Cloud providers are doing an end run around the intention of the GPL - but not around its legal constraints.

(And before we consider possibilities otherwise, it might be more pertinent to at least attempt to punish companies in blatant violation - like the multitude of router manufactures routinely shipping GPL derived software without reasonable access to source.)
It seems you can always just run the AGPL licensed software and as long as you interact with it through the network or the database you won't have to relicense anything.

What you cannot do is:

1. change the AGPL software itself and provide it to end users in any form without providing updated sources

2. make a combined product and not provide sources for all of it under AGPL.

3. Also there is nothing to prevent you from releasing sources of your software dual licensed under both MIT and AGPL.

"Fred Astaire’s daughter, Ava, says she is “saddened that after his (Fred’s) wonderful career he was sold to the devil.” The “devil” in this case is the Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner. Fred is appearing in commercials in which his dancing props (a mop from “Easter Parade” and a coat rack in “Royal Wedding”) have been computerized and substituted with vacuum cleaners. The blurbs have already appeared in (very costly) spots on the Super Bowl and more are to come"

(the reason it was permitted is because his widow was ok with it - she drew the line at "putting words in his mouth", but a vacuum cleaner in his hands was ok by her)

You struggle to imagine because you went elitist. "University level strong in CS", I said college. A lot of colleges teach Visual Basic. No, Ivy League schools might not, but a lot of colleges do. Heck, my community college taught a class for kids on it in the late 90s (my intro to programming) and still teaches college students a VB track today.
That's sort of the catch-22 of consciousness. Awareness without agency is pretty pointless.
As I said in another comment, M1 seems to be severely I/O-limited. The M1 Mac Mini even has an internal USB hub iirc to solve this. It's safe to say that the next generation of SoCs will be better in this regard.
That only makes sense if you agree with the open source foundation definition of restrictive. I don't. I think the ability to freely link to whatever other software is much more important to most people than the ability to run a *aaS. We never made any claims about open source only our opinion about what restrictive means to us.
> Any natural resource which is inherently limited in supply can generate economic rent... Georgists argue that taxing economic rent is efficient, fair and equitable.

Take out "natural" and it seems like any non-inflationary cryptocurrency would be a target for a Georgist tax.
As I understand it, there are natural mechanisms that break down the mRNA.

At least in the article about reverse engineering the vaccine, they state that that "The mRNA vaccines quickly degrade in the human body" https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/reverse-engineering-source...

I think also the instability is a large component of why the vaccines must be stored at such low temperatures.

In the reverse case, I recall seeing some articles that thieves will use bluetooth sniffers to identify valuables (e.g. cellphones without the BT turned off) in cars, to steal.

Seems feasible that having a sniffer for fancy apple trackers could locate some potentially valuable things to steal.

I've worked with tools that do this sort of thing and the only way to get the sort of synchronization your asking for was to essentially peg an entire CPU core to 100% utilization.
You dont need to. Check the awesome self hosted lists on github. Work is already mostly done.
In a properly-designed CI/CD system, a dependency getting yanked isn't an emergency unless you choose to treat it as such. In particular, if you don't want your build to fail because some dependency got yanked then you need to use a Cargo.lock, and you need to ensure that you're not overzealous in your use of cargo-deny and similar tools.

I'm not sure if you were affected by this, but Cargo introduced a (regression) bug a couple years ago that caused it to fail when a crate got yanked when it shouldn't have. This bug was eventually fixed, but lots of people blamed ring for this bug. If this Cargo bug hadn't been introduced then most people who were using Cargo correctly wouldn't have been negatively affected by ring's old policy.
So if you could write programs with the tetris blocks, it'd be an OS? Sign me up!
So that means that if the technology gets 10x cheaper then it'll be economically viable for the affected parties to pay for carbon sequestration. Charm says they think $45/ton is achievable. I guess the conclusion is that climate change will be solved in a few years?

I'm having enough difficulty separating "hypervisor" from "operating system".
I have the opposite problem. On a PC, you can always store data, the graphics display exactly how you want, the feedback is instant, and you always know the state of things. You don't ever get disconnected from the user, nor have more than one at a time.

My favorite platform is Lazarus/Free Pascal. The documentation is a bit sketchy, but the IDE and the applications it outputs seem solid. I'd prefer Delphi, but they priced themselves out of my world 20 years ago.

I don't think it's such a mystery or revelation as the author seems to make it out to be.

When a country/people are young and poor, like we were in the 1950s, everything is about physical goods to make our lives better. That's where everyone is spending their hard eared money, incurring their labor. Manual labor, to make goods and services -- and those services that don't transmit very far.

Now, 60 years later, everyone has huge material wealth built up -- the legacy of decades of labor and productivity. So first of all there's just a lot more money sloshing around to be spent. Money is spent easier now -- do you remember how tightfisted your parents were about money? Because it was scarce! Now it's easy -- even they are more casual about it.

And then, what is there to spend on? You don't need another dishwasher. So you spend on leisure activities, luxuries, intellectual/social goods. Things that don't require huge amounts of manual labor. Things that can be recorded and replayed, and everyone is willing to pay a couple dollars for.

The people who produce things for that market are of course gonna be the ones who luck out.

But the pendulum swings back and forth, and I'm sure it will again for us some time. Go to another country, and the pendulum is on the opposite side.
I find the visceral reaction against FLoC interesting. On paper it is an improvement over explicit 3rd party tracking cookies that are used to monitor the sites you visit and are ultimately used to categorize you. Just something about "we're gonna stamp you with some labels and broadcast them to every site you visit" really provokes people even though the end results are the same as before.
This is a totally amateur and non professional question. As I understand some techniques are required to ensure that the mrna reaches the cell without being destroyed. What are the chances that these techniques have side effects and we end up with the back story to the movie "I am legend"?

Yeah, I always assumed that you could put a load balancer in between to enforce the affinity across a farm, but I think the point is that dollar-for-dollar, the need to do that means it won’t scale well for a massively public app as well as other technologies (i.e. it will be more expensive to host).
I suspect there will be a preference to turn it off by the time it launches for real. Then, maybe people who care will turn it off instead of switching?

Since the hijacked cells expressing the spike protein are your own, presumably they still emit "friendly" signals to the immune system (eg: I am self, do not attack). I am curious how the immune system would even recognize the spike proteins as bad in this case. If the vaccine has some mechanism to attract attention to the spike, is there a risk that antibodies could develop to the cells themselves for instance?
That's interesting, thanks for sharing. I don't use Macs too often so I wasn't aware that was the behavior on the platform.

I’d argue that a good mobile browser was the killer app that brought the iPhone to the forefront. It differentiated it from what else was available at the time. It’s hard to pinpoint a killer app now because the ecosystem is mature, but a killer app is often what gets a platform off the ground in the first place.

I may be misreading your comment, but in case you're not aware .NET 5 supports Windows 7 as a deployment platform:
https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/5.0/5...

And it does not specifically require any paid extended support contract from Microsoft to actually install and run.
(author here) Yes, totally agree. I think this is one of the biggest barriers to adopting this kind of tool in production.

One simple solution might be to only run the recording process on test data and never run in prod.
the problem is that people don't like the status quo, and FLOC is advertised as solving that but it doesn't.

So it's a new technology, with new complexity, and unknown additional attack surface (in the sense of attacks on user privacy) that doesn't do anything to actually reduce the tracking of users.
I'm assuming that people are good at prying into such things will jailbreak it

The desire from Western governments to pin all of the blame on China seems staggering to me. Even if it were true that a lab leak triggered the pandemic, the appalling response by most governments is clearly the cause of the majority of the deaths. To say otherwise is to admit that you as a government our powerless to prevent hundreds of thousands of deaths from a hypothetical biological weapon in the future.
it doesn't send anything like that anywhere. it matches a list of executables it downloads with what it sees running, to determine if you are running a game.
If the argument being made is ".NET isn't a language", and the response is "okay, then how do I install C#?" Linking the dotnet website probably doesn't advance the idea that C# and .NET aren't tied together.
