What do you mean I can't capitalize on the upside?

Sure, my purchase costs went up some, but no where close to the additional value I got over normal for my sale. Put it this way, I paid a few hundred dollars, maybe a thousand dollars more for the car than I would normally, but I sold my old car for thousands more than I normally would have been able too.

That's capitalizing on the upside for sure.

taxation is theft. You don't think the government taking half your paycheck each year (income taxes, payroll taxes, sales taxes, gas tax, capitol gains tax, etc.) while debasing your currency is theft?
Sure, if you want to change the format of the whole message. If you're communicating with something that accepts JSON and you can't or don't want to change that, then having a more efficient option is nice.

Even if they did they may have preferred Rust because parsing arbitrary user provided input is one of the more risky things you can do in C. This is a perfect use case for Rust's memory safety model.
This seems a bit exaggerated. We have maritime law, telephony agreements, bern convention, international aviation regulations that were developed over time as the need became critical.

In general, you can still save a lot of money, and have a higher quality end result by building your own desktop system, unless you want a really low-end machine. Well, this is not quite true these days, but if the blockchain madness abates, then GPU prices will fall back into reasonable levels.
I want to ignore most of this article to complain about an inaccuracy that keeps coming up.

> More broadly, they said the change will break end-to-end encryption for iMessage, which Apple has staunchly defended in other contexts.

But... it wouldn't. The iMessage feature doesn't expose the contents of your message to anyone else under any circumstance.

If you're a child under 13 and your parents have opted in to this feature, you get a choice of seeing naked-pictures sent to you and having your parents be notified that you chose to, and bypassing it with no notifications of anything. (But once you're 13+, no notifications would occur.)

There are potential issues with this, mostly relating to abusive families being controlling. They'd have to do weird things like forcing their teenaged children to keep making new under-13 accounts to actually take advantage of it like that, though. And none of these issues impact the e2e status of iMessage in any way.

Apple really screwed up PR by launching the iMessage feature alongside the scanning-and-reporting iCloud Photos feature. There's so much confusion out there about this.

(The breaking-e2e aspect does exist with the iCloud Photos scanning... not that it's currently e2e, of course.)

Well the clean-up problem get's even more complicated with MEO and beyond as the amount of space becomes even larger. As for space-junk not being a problem in LEO, you are correct that space junk in LEO will de-orbit in a somewhat reasonable time-frame (on the order of a few years), but that's still problematic. It would still cause the destruction of 100s of billions of dollars worth of equipment, the ceasing of any operations dependent on LEO satellite equipment, and either increasing the risk or out-right blocking launches through LEO for a number of years. The fact that this would be temporary does not mean it isn't very bad.
Just the opposite. Need to let people raise prices to encourage slack in the system. Let’s prices settle where chip makers can produce new chips.

There are market failures where the government needs to step in, but this isn’t one. Even with climate change (where they should step in) the government can’t get to the point of saying it’s ok for gas prices to be high.

We don’t want the government to pick winners and losers when it doesn’t need to.

This is specious. There's lots of comments about how you don't get everything out of the box and for the parts that are missing it's a pain. Perhaps your particular use cases are covered, that's great.
Not pragmatic IMO - flexible usually means resonance and vibration which leads to poor finish and deafening the operator/upsetting the neighbors.

If a lighter frame was the design goal (but low cost wasn't!) then carbon fiber has an interesting stiffness/weight ratio and could have viscoelastic damping elements incorporated too. Realistically though, lightness isn't a prioritized design goal though I certainly see the appeal in marketing for home usage where you wouldn't need a crane to move the machine about.
Replying to the above comment, the parent. I think this is fascinating and definitely worth thinking about. But I don't think we should ascribe any list of traits to one thing or another: that too is discriminatory, no? Sort of like finding discrimination by setting up a biased framework from which to then go looking for it. Like setting out to prove the conclusion you've already decided...so I definitely disagree with that, but nevertheless think this is such a fascinating topic. Thank you for this, and good on you for replying here!
Desktop publishing was more than a buzzword! I had a Mac Plus in High School and I was one of the more popular people in my class. I also ended up typesetting the school newspaper, eventually I got a few of my peers trained up to do it too. The portability of the Mac Plus came in handy as I would bring it to school once a month to get the paper done.

Had to get my mom to drive me to a service bureau near the university that would laser print pages - $1 a page. Our highschool paper looked better than most of the indy papers in town. It was revolutionary tech that we now just take for granted.

I remember getting excited over the first bubblejet printers - finally affordable laser like quality!

Ah ... I see my point(s) sailing over your head. I'm guessing you didn't realise that since the joke is presenting this as if it (i.e. "solving" the Collatz Conjecture) were real, I'm replying by treating it as if it were real, and thereby playing along with the joke.

Never mind, on-line forums are really the right place for subtlety.
So your position is that any use of their own format is abusive in itself? The anticompetitive part of Microsoft Word is the bare fact that it exists? Under what circumstances would it be legal to use your own file format?
I think it’s implausible that someone can become aware of 30 images which are miscategorised as A1 CSAM. How would this malicious entity discover them? What’s the likelihood that this random array of odd images could make it into a target‘s photo library?

And what’s the likelihood that a human reviewer will see these 30 odd images and press the “yep it’s CSAM” button?

More likely as soon as Apple’s human review sees these oddball images, they’re going to investigate, mark those hashes as invalid, then contact their upstream data supplier who will fix their data and now those implausible images are now useless.

It must be nice to live in a sunny place where you can walk or bike to work.

Unfortunately, the rest of the world, including that which services fancy "green" neighbourhoods, require vehicles.
Because people equal JIT with close to zero buffer inventory. JIT is basically a concept of defining the correct and minimal buffer. If that's close zero, cool. If it's more than zero, cool as well. It also puts a lot of emphasis on lot sizes and lead-times. No one in the right mind would implement JIT for stuff involving sea freight without buffer stock close to production.
Some of them get that, and car manufactures have learned the hard way how important that is and so demanding it more. However there are still a lot of parts where they can't get the 15 year supply in anything that meets the other requirements.
No blowback here in US media either, but our mainstream sources have been buddying up to all of our little authoritarians especially as it pertains to COVID, so running a story about your rights being infringed upon wouldn't jive with the rest of their recent messaging.
I was speaking to a car dealer client the other week and heard some funny stories, like selling off cheap batches of vans with various non-essential electronics missing - just holes in the dash - and the promise that units would be available to fit later.
If you /really/ want to make money, you don't sell. You buy and rent out.
It seems to me that they are using an expected lifetime (in the "expected value" sense) of 200,000 km for both types of vehicles.

If those factors apply equally and dominate the reasons vehicles reach EOL, then the expected lifetime not varying significantly between the vehicle types looks like a reasonable assumption.

Using the real expected lifetime taking into account the circumstances that tend to render a vehicle permanently unserviceable in the real world looks like the correct approach to determine how manufacturing costs are amortised over the vehicle lifetime.
Propaganda, through and through.
Because of course there's a database of water conflicts going back over 6,000 years. I mean, why wouldn't that be a thing? There's probably a database of pokemon conflicts, so it shouldn't feel so surprising...

Anyway, thanks!

Why on earth not? I've been in plenty of video conferences over the years where plenty of the participants were more than 2 m away from the camera and screen. So much so that I would say that in my experience it was the most common way to do it in the offices where I have worked.

Not everyone is using their mobile phone for conferencing you know.

The funny part of that whole thread was that you have to already understand how nav meshes work (at least a tiny bit, like me) in order to make the connection he wants you to make. But, if you already know a little bit about nav meshes, he could have explained what happened in a lot fewer tweets.

I don't think Twitter is the wrong format to tell this story: probably more people read it as a result, and that's to the good. But I will note that one thing about blog posts is that the format encourages editing and revision, while Twitter encourages spontaneity. In this case, the story could have benefited from a second draft for the sake of clarity.
> but I guess that's too 1999 for the author

This is incredibly condescending.
This is overly cynical. I agree that in general cooperation is very hard, and if things can be solved by a private entity, that is a good strategy. But the world has united behind causes before. A good example is the hole in the ozone layer. The world identified CFCs as causing this problem, and united behind the Montreal protocol. Now, the hole is shrinking and is expected to be closed by mid century [1].

I emphasize this because international cooperation is important to solve many problems. Let's not misrepresent the situation and pretend it's impossible. It has happened before, and we would do well to make sure it continues to happen.

I worked in the DELL Manufacturing plant in north Austin (Metric Blvd) on the 386->486 heydays. The DELL Optiplex 386SX will run around 800 to 1200 DLLS and came pre-installed with MD DOS 6.1 and Windows 3.1. When the 486 machines started churning out of the factory Windows 95 came to be and the PCs came pre loaded preloaded with a short action snippet of TOP-GUN and MS Encarta Encyclopedia so you could test your optional and expensive Sound Blaster 16 card.

Before Rust, it seemed there was a law that every sufficiently critical code path would eventually be rewritten in C or C++.

After Rust, giving up a bit of performance to not have to maintain the C code underneath seems preferred. And often you don't even sacrifice performance.
If I were you I'd investigate how you can get the source of this page (for example with a beautiful soup python script) and filter out http* links (for example with python re library) and how to save them somewhere like a flat file (python file operations)

or sage this page as linkstocheckout.html and in a terminal try filtering out urls with grep:

```

grep -Eoi '<a [^>]+>' linkstocheckout.html | grep -Eo 'href="[^\"]+"' | grep -Eo '(http|https)://[^/"]+'

```

Go watch the original iPhone launch keynote with Steve Jobs. Before the iPhone "mobile internet" was a completely separate version of the 'net - if a site even bothered to create a WAP version of themselves to render on phones. Before the iPhone the only thing consistently useful on a mobile "smart phone" was email. Having a real web browser that rendered real web pages was a watershed moment!
For a single machine, you don't need to operate a nomad cluster: `nomad agent -dev` instantly gives you a 1-node cluster ready to go.

On the DARPA derived internet, no less.
A base64 implementation is very small, but not completely trivial to the point where you should implement it yourself, or paste in a one liner from Stack Overflow. It's widely used with JSON. C++ has no package manager to make it easy to import tiny libraries for purposes like this, so C++ libraries should be a little more self contained than npm packages or rust crates. It would absolutely be reasonable to include a base64 implementation in a C++ JSON library for those reasons.

We Have No Bananas (2011)
7 years ago I had just aborted an internship, my foray into being an employed adult, because I found myself unable to deal with disagreements. Contrary to my naive hope that the confidence boost from being a Professional Software Developer(tm) would solve all my emotional problems I now knew that my limitations would follow me around anywhere I would go. But I had no idea how to change and was too stuck in my own anxiety and arrogance to ask for help.

Around that time I Somehow stumbled upon this[1] article on how to make a Buddhist bone trumpet. It took me completely by surprise, the topic, the author, the tone, the context of Buddhism, nothing fit together like I expected. It was the most absurd thing I ever read and I kept laughing, at the same time it felt utterly genuine. My curiosity piqued I read the other less bizarre articles from the author about Buddhism and life in general. It dawned on me that my attempt at completely controlling my life had, in fact, caused me to lose control over it. The process of learning to accept unpredictability and open myself to the world, that started the evening I read that article, was by no means always this fun, but looking back boy was it worth it.

Sort of, but in the EU law came in a few years back that made it illegal to charge extra to cover CC processing fees over - say - payments by cash. This meant that companies either swallow the cost or increase prices across the board to cater for the likelihood of that item being bought by card.

Now, this is great for supermarkets or companies able to get very low processing charge percentages - shitty for everyone else, including the likes of me who receive less than 5% of payments by card and thus have a higher percentage to pay.

Personally, I break the law and state on my invoice that CC payments will be charged extra. shrug
