I have 5 20 x 20 box fans running 24/7/365 with Merv 13 HEPA filters placed against the back (held on by the fans suction). The whole house has Merv 12 HEPA filtration through forced air system. The air in the house is incredibly clean, to the point where after working from home and not going out much for the last 1.5 years, I am finding that I'm way more sensitive to allergens outside. Otherwise there is almost zero dust, the house has no odor, and there is a nice hum that drowns out outside noise and makes sleeping very comfortable. Lasko now sells a fan specifically made for cleaning your air.

Yes there are. Every scanner out there fingerprints the OS and throws known sploits at it. Solaris is easy to fingerprint.
I guess this is more in line with the narrative that older protocols that people are more familiar with are somehow always better. That there is a hidden evil agenda for introducing something new. Or at least that we all need to pay a price for the sole benefit of a tech giant. It is a convenient narrative, which could be true, but it feels too easy a conclusion. Which makes it a good clickbait.
You are; coney in English generally has a long e sound at the end (like saying the letter 'e'), not a long a sound (like saying the letter 'a'), so it wouldn't be the same or rhyme with the first two syllables of conejo (which has the long a sound in the second syllable).

Tangent, but in line with what others have commented, American English tends to pronounce the first syllable with a long o (like saying the letter 'o'), whereas British tends to pronounce it with a long oo sound (like the vowel sound in the the word 'food'). I've never heard it pronounced with a short 'u' sound (an 'uh' sound), but others intimated they either have, or have heard it pronounced close to it, which is interesting.
Quite a few of Firefox's recent gpu changes do require Wayland and open drivers. Nvidia might get whitelisted at some point.
Nice, I hadn't come across Bevy, thanks for mentioning this. For others: https://bevyengine.org/news/introducing-bevy/
To be fair, the Olympics’ explicit primary goal is for “country pride” to have a scene.

Removing that part, none of it makes much sense (if you only care about individual athletes or disciplines, you’ll be fine with annual world events)
Ironic considering the number of farmers that do controlled burns on their farms in Italy.

Not sure about this but if true, that’s next level messed up. Imagine the kid finding out his birth was due to convenience.
By accessing the data on a website, you are forming a contract with that website and are subject to the website’s terms and conditions.

As a website owner, beyond that, there is no need to tell someone they cannot access your site if you simply block them from accessing your servers instead using a multitude of techniques.

Where does caching come into play at all here? You cannot cache content to begin with if the server is blocking access in the first place. And if you have already cached it in the act of violating said website’s terms of service, then you are still not in compliance.
I am so thankful that I am not a landlord or a tenant in these times of tyrannical government overreach.

And that's why politicians can and should enact laws that tax these externalities at the industry level. Cars might appear to cost more once the manufacturers pass on the tax to consumers, but that's just because you aren't accounting for the real cost of it destroying the environment when you buy one.
It is dead, just slow to rewrite everything.
I can tell that you're angry at Facebook. However, I don't really understand why. You're upset that they aren't taking more public credit? Perhaps this is a cultural difference, but I've never been exposed to a community where not taking credit violates social values. Help me understand?
Just wait until they get to meet delta. That thing has killed four people I know in Missouri and Arkansas who refused to get a vaccine. Past infection with alpha did not protect them.
I would make all creations public by default, and have a gallery area. This would add to my trust in what the 0.99$ does, as well as be cool on its own.
> 5B USD for an attack isn't a major barrier though to an actor looking to attack ETH, though. Are you implying that it is?

Well 5B USD may not be an impossible sum for some corporations and nations, but for some actors this is a barrier, yes.

I'm not necessarily trying to say such an attack is out of the question, I'm just trying to elucidate the question of the difference between PoS security and PoW security. I'm not convinced that your argument about the possibility of a covert accumulation of staking power does anything to distinguish PoS from PoW. You could just as easily invest that 5 Billion to build a chip fabrication plant, use that plant to covertly build ASICs, and surprise the Bitcoin network with a 51% attack.
GreenCore: Green Computing for the Future of Defi [pdf]
There have been a number of ongoing projects to address a key challenge in DeFi: the high transaction fees. We introduce a new solution, GreenCore, that alleviates this problem based on optimization theories of computer programs. GreenCore analyzes the deployed bytecodes of a smart contract and automatically optimizes its gas cost on every code path. We further develop GreenSwap, by optimizing the popular Uniswap protocol, and find that it significantly reduces transaction fees on Ethereum by over 30% on average, upto 55%, compared to Uniswap.

The unfortunate reality is that some of this may be true. Building in danger zones where the home will need to be replaced in 10-20 years is an awful investment on a 30 year mortgage. If the property is untenable after 20 years then the owner is out a good chunk of money.

This isn’t a big deal when property is cheap and can be paid off within 5-10 years, and rebuilt. But housing has become dramatically more expensive relative to cash flow than it has been historically.
Tax free income in the form of “forgiven rent” for all tenants! It’s a great time for them.
Could you share specifics on how to set this up?

I’m interested in having a “local” personal knowledge base (currently using Obsidian—>Hugo site —> GitHub —>AWS Amplify / Netlify)

Your setup sounds extremely useful. I haven’t tried Emacs / org-mode / org-roam, but the more I read about it, the more curious I am getting. If you have advice, I’d love to hear it.
Revenue neutral is a campaign slogan and nothing close to the policies that are typically put forward. I'm not saying there is no such thing as revenue neutral carbon tax, but when the rubber hits the road, revenue neutral on the campaign trail becomes a normal tax with a few token rebates.

In the higher up the income distribution the percentage of a person's income spent on consumption decreases, as highest earners typically put their money into wealth generating assets. So a smaller percentage of their income is actually taxed.

If you make 30k a year, you are spending everything you make on essentials. They're for the full amount of your earnings will be taxed by any consumption tax. If you make 300K a year, even if you spend 2/3 of it on consumption you are still being taxed at a lower rate.
> No, Haskell is weird since a string is [Char].

I can think of various langages where string is not a built-in, but i can’t think of a langage where string is not some sort of sequence, not just in its implementation but in its interface.

The definition also breaks down quickly e.g. is a complex a primitive? If not because they have real and imaginary parts, why are floats which have a mantissa and an exponent? And what about functions? What even is a child? Are value-less sum types primitives but valued ones not?

More importantly, how does it matter? What does the distinction you draw provide that is useful?
What I hate is when I'm shopping on Amazon and it's one for $5, or get a pack of fifty for $7.

If the majority of the cost of selling cheap things on Amazon is fixed (Amazon stocking fees, carrier fees, etc) then the actual profit to the seller on the $7 item is probably higher than it is on the $5 item. They know very few people will buy the $5 individual item; it exists to make the higher priced, higher profit item look like a bargain.
Such images of the Tiananmen square would have been wiped off the face of social media if so - every big social media company uses PhotoDNA or similar to catch likely matches before someone in the real world sees the illegal images on their platform.
On device data scan, however well-intended it may be, is an invasion of privacy. Server scan is entirely different matter, because it is an optional service which may come with any clauses its provider may deem necessary.

I understand that it doesn't scan everything, but it don't matter. What matter is there's an implemented technical capability to run scans against external fingerprint database. it's a tool which may be used for many needs.

I hope some countries will prohibit Apple doing that. Germany with its strict anti-snooping laws comes to mind. Maybe Japan. The more, the better.

Oh, and by the way, every tech-savvy sex predator now knows what they should avoid doing. As always with mass privacy invasions: criminals are the last to suffer from it.

> Like what exactly did they gain by making a weird non-PCIe NVMe situation?

When Intel did exactly that, there was a clear plausible chain of decisions leading to that madness. I have no clue what may have led Apple in this direction, but the excuses probably aren't any more pathetic than trying to explain why Intel has shipped two mutually-incompatible "solutions" for preventing NVMe drives from working out of the box with unmodified Windows.
Read the papers published by Apple. The target database is (intentionally) designed to make it impossible for Apple to know what the targets are.

This is a complex cryptosystem designed to keep Apple out of the loop. There is a target database whose intended targets they cannot know, and customer data they prefer not to know.
I'm waiting to see us come up with clever ways to shrinkflate food that is priced in weight (e.g. $6.99/lb).

Perhaps we can create some new, arbitrary unit of weight will be created, like ib, Ib, llb, ld, etc. that looks like a typo and tricks my mind into thinking I am getting a deal on a pound (lb) of ground beef when I am actually buying less of it. Bonus points if the unit of weight is not constant, fluctuating week after week based on market conditions, maybe tied to some new digital currency.
I Review 2k Olympics Photos and Deliver 25 Right Away
Sometimes we look at Apple code too, within reason and where strictly necessary.

The problem is that there are safe ways of doing this and terrible ways of doing this. When I look at vendor code, my goal is to understand what I need to do to the hardware to get it to behave how I want. I don't care how Apple's code works; I only want to use it to help answer questions about the hardware, and then build my own driver with my own approach.

However, I've seen other people (including a Corellium co-founder, in a past project that predates the company) "reverse engineer" code by literally translating it back to compilable C code, with the same logic, functions, and everything. And that is where you run into copyright problems.

And the issue is that unless you re-do all the work from scratch, it's not easy to tell from the output whether this has happened or not. I've been bitten by this in the past. And so, as the Asahi Linux project founder, I can't afford to accept contributions from any random person that are not clean-room, without having some level of trust. I have a few long-time friends in the project who I know won't screw this up, so I'm not worried about them taking a peek at Apple's drivers in Ghidra. But if it's someone I don't know, they need to build trust and we need to have a conversation about this first.

Corellium have so far refused to have any conversations with us. They never replied to any emails they were CCed on, nor have they joined our project IRC channels.

So, without being able to build trust that their approach is kosher, I can't just take their code and use it.

Practically speaking, Corellium certainly have internal documentation on the hardware that they could share (much like we're dumping info on our wiki) that would be immensely useful to us, but I doubt they'd ever share that, as it would potentially help someone compete with their product. Asahi Linux is, in this way, fundamentally at odds with Corellium: we're trying to reverse engineer the M1 and share that knowledge, while they did so to build a proprietary product and keeping that reverse engineered knowledge a trade secret is important to them.
It's the best argument. Every other argument is based on a slippery slope what-if scenario.

Also, I pay for iCloud... but they're not paying me for using my phone and bandwidth. I never agreed to that.

They can't just pull the rug out from me after we already have an agreement. I mean they can, because I probably "agreed" to it and some fine print garbage EULA, but those fall apart in a court of law.
If you had to suggest a “get started on Emacs org-mode” guide to a newbie, which would your recommend? Might kick the tires this weekend…
For me, this crosses a line. There should be no need to "strike a balance" with authorities wanting what are essentially unwarranted searches. The right balance is, "fuck off".

I'm looking into privacy phones for the first time and will be switching.
Dude, this is all great in theory but in a court of law you'll get completely horsefucked if you have child porn on your hard drive. The judge and jury won't care about /dev/random or a fall to reform
I grow tired of this. Put up or shut up. Show me a mechanism for action anywhere in any application of mRNA, which has been studied and in use for decades, that even shows an indication of the possibility of this.

We know how mRNA works. We know what protein is being coded. We know that it codes that protein correctly. We know that the mRNA flushes when it's done. I'm not asking for a smoking gun. I'm asking you to substantiate even the possibility of it with actual peer-reviewed science and not hyperventilating, middlebrow fearmongering.

Bring something real to the table. For once. Any of you.

This is a very naive view of things, which given your comment history (inane one-liners without even a short moment to compose something more substantial and with more thought about it) seems to be your model.

Going 'full nuclear' without capping the per-capita energy budget is still going to release a very large amount of energy. Besides that heating in many places is based on natural gas. Then there is the per kilo-watt hour cost of nuclear energy which is way higher than solar or wind when taken over the full lifetime of the installation including the eventual cleanup / disposal.

Nuclear energy is an option but it isn't the only option and it has serious drawbacks, just like every other option on the table today.

The best thing we can do is to limit our consumption. But that's easy to say from the point of view of the developed world, where consumption is excessive. It will be more than offset by the developing countries gains leaving us with a situation that is net worse than things are today even if we do our best. This is not a simple problem and naive one sentence solutions are not going to get us to a sustainable situation.

Nah I saw it and have been busy and agree with you that context is hard on the internet and I got it wrong with the best intentions, glad we could talk it out :)
Let me see if I understand.

Facebook does X, which the Government decides causes Y amount of harm to society. The Government compels Facebook to fund independent research to verify this claim.

Independent research finds that Facebook does cause some amount of harm to society. Government uses that evidence to compel Facebook to act in ways that might reduce that harm.

Facebook agrees and decides to implement controls that might reduce this harm.

Facebook then wonders, “hmm why not just stop paying for this research, it’s actually leading to worse outcomes for us” and decides to shut down that research.

> What's the alternative? Asking the ftc every single time what they should do?

Maybe nothing that extreme, but certainly reasonable controls to operate in a way that’s verified by independent research as to not cause harm to society.
Godot is great
Well that's one of those things where you wouldn't have a sense that it was a problem until you observed it being a problem.
Once again Wired reminds us that controversy sells clicks.

The barrier to entry to compete with Facebook is too high, they have too much power over humanity and they are alleged to have abused that power, so they will be scaled back, just like those who came before them (AT&T, IBM, etc.) Not sure what they are planning matters while this process is playing out, but click on…
The biggest problem is having to deal with USCIS, at least until you get your green card. Simple things like renewing your driver license, getting a mortgage, filling your taxes becomes way more complicated and sometimes impossible. Depending on the type of your your visa, you may have to postpone your foreign travel or job changes while done paperwork is stick in limbo at the USCIS. And if somehow you get into a complicated situation because USCIS messed up your application (happens more often than you think), be prepared to be stonewalled or ignored while you pull your hair out trying to fix it.
Neat concept. Suggestion to the author: show the out of sample fit stats and how the interpolation versus extrapolation regions are determined.

If New Zealand is like Australia, I wouldn't say it's only for the rich ones but you do need to be middle class because the flight costs + hotel costs are obscene. But you don't need to be a millionaire or a celebrity or anything like that.
It's a balance. There's also the saying that "the prototype usually becomes the product", which means that by the time the team has made all those tech debt mini-concessions along the way and have allowed engineers to sneak through pull-requests with zero discipline (it works just send it bro), they've basically sacrificed any sort of compound interest that could have been gained by teaching the team the correct fundamentals from the beginning.

There's a 6-month startup phase in just about every SW project I've led that sets a strong course for the lifetime of the project that is awfully hard to correct, both for better or for worse. My advice is always suck it up early and collect the dividends down the road.

Its beauty comes from being small and orthogonal, but flexible enough to expand to accommodate the project. It's great for embedding, batteries-not-included; when you're writing your `class` implementation you can integrate it with your engine's object system.

But many modern engines lean more in the data driven direction. Most or all of the game logic is implemented in config files and the embedded language. You're not writing scripts that manipulate game systems built into the engine, you're building your game systems in the embedded language. Now you want a bit more heft from your language.
Funny that this link itself is talking about the history of the WWW but uses AMP...
So Facebook has a comprehensive access control system in the internal APIs. As part of the FTC consent decree, Facebook has been doing sweeps of all data types and having the owners of those data types tighten up the access control rules on those data types - particularly, product teams have to remove access control checks that aren’t fine grained enough. I’m guessing one such change broke the ads research tool.

I love learning about nearly anything and have been working my way though several classic texts in computer science to help round out my fundamentals. I'd like a job focused in math, science or anything that would let me dig into the heart of a complex problem.
Driving around the mountains in Marin county CA people live in these incredibly picturesque and beautiful spaces on forested mountain tops. I had never really seen anything like it other than possibly villas on the Italian coast, or parts of Japan but I believe the whole country is a lot wetter. My understanding is this kind of architecture and landscaping really only took off around the 1970s, but I can't blame those who are able to afford it for wanting to live essentially IN nature.

On the other hand city blocks, suburbs and good size lawns are boring in comparison but at least they are harder to burn down in dry weather.
