The simple things with chips in them don't (or shouldn't) have the expected growth of computing power that makes parts obsolete.

Like, if a washing machine or a car's fuel injector needs some chips, we should be able to reuse chips from older washing machines and older fuel injectors which we generally throw out because of a mechanical failure with all their electronics intact, but currently it seems that all these chips get just discarded, no one cares about them.
That first sentence, man. Like, I feel bad second guessing people, in some ways it's not my right -- but it so feels like the kind of "respectability" talk I used to say out of what I thought was "the truth," but now realize it was a sort of habitual way to defuse the room.

So I will state clearly -- yes, I am aware my opinions are absolutely related to my skin color and that's precisely why you all need to pay special attention to them. Not because of some sort of silly inherent genetic thing, but because I have experiences that many of you don't.
Incoming WebGPU set to reinvent Browser Gaming
I had the impression that most of the server's cpu time is used for simulating the game's content, not the players themselves. Most of the available cpu time is usually spent on monster AI and monster physics.

I assume that WorldQL is also used to store monsters besides the blocks, otherwise my understanding is that players cannot interact with monsters from other servers.
Is it possible to create redstone circuits on different servers that then interact with each other?
How is the Spacia if you splash through a bit of a puddle on the highway?

Does the wheel jerk, bump steer a ton at that speed?

If you happen to have noticed, how does it handle something like a steel plate (temporarily placed during road work) ?

I have just recently found out about the Subaru Sambar / Daihatsu HiMax microvans and have been very curious. Since I'm unlikely to find an opportunity to test drive a Sambar, I was imagining that these little citycars might be a bit unstable at higher speeds, wet conditions or travelling alongside semi-trailers on CONUS State roads and certainly the Interstate.

Which is what DeepMind has done with the AlphaFold code (Apache licensed https://github.com/deepmind/alphafold) and published model predictions (CC licensed at https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/). I guess they could publish the weights but that would probably be useless since nobody else would be running the exact same hardware.
I've had a couple, the keyboard fails. Just get some reliable or repairable hardware and throw linux on it.

Toyota has this figured out. After the 2011 quake they built a system to identify critical, difficult to replace parts in their supply chain and size buffers for those parts. Any they aggregate demand over larger time intervals than other manufacturers. They lasted 18 months into the pandemic shortages before they ran their buffers dry.

Can you explain exactly what you were trying to accomplish with this comment? Government noninterference in access to abortion services provided by licensed medical practitioners meets my definition of social progress. If you feel the need to distill that down to "abortion is progress," I'm comfortable with that. Abortion is progress because it means that women have access to abortion that is less obstructed by non-medical interference.
Second popular one was Schoolbus.
I wish there was a UK equivalent. We had Station X for a while, but they seem to have disappeared now.

I think System76 have showed that they understand why Linux hasn't gone mainstream with the creation and continued 'mild innovation' of Pop_OS!. I call it mild innovation because none of what they are doing is particularly revolutionary, but it does show an insight into modern users.

UI tweaks, batteries included Nvidia drivers, excellent branding and targeting on the download page (makes it look genuinely attractive to download) and a load of other small things.

At the moment, for these reasons, Pop is being recommended by the Linux Gaming subreddit that offers an easier and better out-of-the-box experience than even previous favourites such as Ubuntu or Mint (which is also based on Ubuntu, as is Pop).

I feel like the only other distro that adds a 'cool factor' is Manjaro, and I feel that even though there are a thousand distros, there is still space in the market for more that focus on design and user experience in the way that Pop does.
I didn’t say “no rest breaks” would be in a written contract. The first three or four jobs I had, there was no written contract.

Illegal aliens somehow manage to have agreements with people paying them money. Lawmakers disagreeing with your terms of employment doesn’t have any bearing on the meaning of “theft”.

The fact that you’re coming up with such convoluted legalistic reasoning shows what a lie it is.
Well no, TIDI had to be added in. It's purposefully slowing down in-game ticks.

Normally your requests would just be dropped if it had to process everything within a 1s tick. Now all reload times etc get slowed down by a huge factor depending on load.
Trusting two people with my secrets necessarily seems riskier than having to trust only one person with my secrets. Maybe the feeling is similar?
I won’t really get into it, but I at this exact moment have three separate little cousins who right now are all trans. They say so. Their parents say so. Everyone is dead set locked in on it.

It’s been… causing rifts in the family. I don’t know anything about anything, but statistics tell me something isn’t exactly lining up.

Clearly some are in a phase, but FFS don’t say that to the parents!
From the title, I thought it was going to be an article about the present day. Sort of a “surprise! -it’s right now” kind of feel, and then talk about the second quantum revolution etc etc.
https://feedreader.com has been working out really well for me for long period of time. It is not as popular as others, and that's a good thing.
I don't think this is an unreasonable structure for a company genuinely worried that their technology will disrupt and replace a large fraction of the global economy.

If OpenAI genuinely produced a strong AI (I'm not saying they will, I'm saying they think they will) the investment returns would be 10,000x, or possibly uncountably more than that.
The situation would be the same if Apple did not have a contract, since they can afford to pay a higher. The contract lets manufacturers more easily invest in future capacity.
Sure, but a sidewinder missile is pretty quick too ... this is apples to oranges since you can easily fit a girl and a dog into a Subaru Sambar, try that in the rod :)

> According to the article, the number of calls went up from 133 to 459. In percentage terms, that's an enormous jump, but it absolute terms, it's still basically nothing. There are 55 poison control centers in the country, so this works out to 8 or 9 cases per center.

> Let’s upperbound an average worst-case situation. [estimation...] That’s .3 people per hospital per day seeking emergency care for Ivermectin.

I think that Ivermectin for covid-19 is snake oil, but I like to avoid hyperbole in the other direction too.
Actually I am planning to shut down emergency scenario of banking apps (installed only because of early pandemic situation) and using only the web access point trough real computer.

There is no absolute in this, but I am certain that in my day to day life I have enough privacy compared to regular users of a smartphone or computer.

This old iPhone is only active for the banking transaction and only in use cases when I don't have a laptop around.
So the compromise is acceptable.
When will players learn to parallelize their simulated DOGE coin miners?!
Crazy. And also good, since that hardware is likely getting used more now.
DID is real enough.

But my take is that conventionally clinical DID presenters will not be particularly public about it, because it stems from the most brutal trauma in childhood- not something to showcase to get upvotes or likes.

I don't have any perspective on non-clinical cases.
Maybe if you haven't researched other successful programs like this.
Anecdotally, I find that parts that used to be in stock are simply bought up en masse by speculators, and then are resold at a huge markup. So you will routinely find that all the authorized distributors are zeroed out and all the unauthorized distributors are selling for 2x-100x the price.

I'm not sure when this became a thing, but it's very real to me. It's a snowball effect; these folks get better and better at buying everything up, and then get all the capital to continue and expand the process. I have stock notifications everywhere and everything is gone as soon as it is posted.

Regarding the article - it is definitely not all about fancy fabs that can't be built - these are analog and power parts! And microcontroller fabs are fancier, but usually many many nodes behind state of the art. Maybe it is a capital thing, but every fab I've ever encountered is more than busy. Sure, you lose money trying to do the hardest thing and failing, but the problem is so widespread across so many non-edge products that it must be explained by other factors.
Yay, higher and higher tax rates to help pay these people. /s
Does this solution handle PvP style play? Interesting project, keep up the great work!
I agree with what you are saying. I personally have never seen something in the real world that looks much like "wage theft". I have seen hundreds of examples of basically the inverse, workers deliberately lying to employers to earn more.

I think it's best if we just keep the word "theft" out if it. It is a misleading rhetorical tool.
Sort of: when I wrote a lot of Python, I used REPLs pretty heavily and I’ve also used notebooks a bit. The issue is that Python isn’t designed in a principled fashion for interactive development: reloading imports and other objects doesn’t always work the way you’d expect.
I thought it was pretty clearly inspired by the film "The Wicker Man": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wicker_Man

Contributing a patch is a one-time operation.

Maintaining a fork and keeping it up to date means you have to constantly integrate upstream work into your work if you want it to remain relevant.

It's the difference between fixing a single issue and owning a project indefinitely.

They actually have binary releases created through github: https://github.com/armosec/kubescape/releases/tag/v1.0.64

The only thing the installer script is doing is autodetecting your OS, picking the correct binary release, downloading it, making it executable, and copying it to /usr/local/bin. The installation instructions could just as easily tell you to do that. As with most go programs, the entire thing is just one file. No libraries, no config files, no dependencies.

Heck, wrapping it in a deb, rpm, and tarball for pacman would be easy as heck, just a one-line installer script: install -m755 <program> <prefix>/bin. I guess single-application developers just really don't like package managers.
I had to livestream my child's funeral. I didn't want to use an iPad, or have an iPhone in someones hand livestreaming to facebook, as I thought I needed to do better, being a techie, so I rolled with my own.

Someone recommended Owncast (should out to Gabe), tried it on my System76 Meerkat that I use for my TV, and it worked a treat. I bought an Asus ZenScreen so I could use a portable monitor (without its own power supply), and just use a single extension cord for the Meerkat. I wanted to keep it as bs-free, and simple as I could.

I had issues getting the monitor to work, even though S76 had something in their FAQ about setting it up. I tried and failed, and with the funeral fast approaching, I emailed their support (months after I had purchased), not only was it answered pretty quickly, but I got a personal call from them with instructions on how to fix my issue, and it worked! Can't rate them high enough - and Pop!_OS is a bloody wonderful OS!
If find yourself shaking your fist at something the kids are doing and pontificating about how its the moral downfall of the species you should probably stop to consider whether you might have just gotten old. I'm sure every generation that's ever existed could have typed that post with a few madlibs and it all turned out fine.
Yeah, WoW's combat is effectively just a MUD, to the extent your position matters it's only very approximate even though the animations look much more precise. The Darkmoon rabbit fight made this extremely obvious, because the mob is tiny (it's just a rabbit, it's a reference to The Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog in Monty Python and the Holy Grail) but it's a public fight with potentially dozens of people trying to attack this rabbit at the same time with huge swords and casting spells and stuff, which looks completely ridiculous, but it's a joke so, it's OK that it's silly.
I have nothing but good things to say about them. I picked up a Lemur March-ish, 2020. I had previously stayed away from them because a coworker had an earlier model, not sure which one, but it was just too clunky compared to my Macbook Air. The first things I noticed was I couldn't get used to the feel, Apple really has their HW quality dialed in. However,I bought it at the time Covid was entering the picture so I decided to dial in my home office, dual screens, corsair keyboard, M$ mouse. Perfect for me. When I go mobile, it's back to the Macbook Air.
Where System76 shines is their support. Hands down, it's perfect. I had a situation where the bluetooth/wifi stopped working, not sure why, we had just been evac'd so I thought maybe it just needed to be re-seated. nope. Not expecting much, I did something I don't like to do, I opened a ticket, and hands down it was probably the best support experience I've ever had. One of thier engineers called me, sat on the phone with me and walked me through patching different firmwares, upgrading kernels, we went the distance, when we couldn't get it working, they shipped me a new card.
I had another situation where the battery started going bad, same positive experience, ticket, handled.
Like I said the hardware is not Apple, but I need linux to dev, so I make it work.
I'm gonna stick with them, I feel they're on the up.

Bernstein was amazing indeed. But if he were alive today, he'd probably have more ready access to music psychology and ethnomusicology perspectives and more readily get feedback from people who have answers to the questions he's posing.

I'd share with people anything from Bernstein otherwise, but for music theory, these particular lectures are not what I'd recommend sharing.
Depends on the ROM. AOSP barely has any Google on it compared to "stock" Android; it uses Google services for system resources like DNS, time synchronization, cert stores updates, etc. This is configurable. Of course, it uses Google servers for updates.

I believe that webviews and such use Google Safe Browsing.

AOSP doesn't have Google Play Services at all. There's a trivial amount to "de-google".

I'd recommend looking into GrapheneOS too once it gets 5a support.
The left i remember from the 90’s and early 2000’s would have been skeptical of huge corporations suppressing political dissent and providing political training at work, for example. They aren’t skeptical now because the corporations are “on their side” on the issues they now consider most important. Issues that conveniently don’t threaten corporate power in any way.
I'm currently using my System 76 Gazelle from about 2013. I've replaced the spinning disk with solid-state and recently replaced the fans. Had problems with the Nvidia drivers, so I have no acceleration. Other than that, it's just worked.
What I see in your previous posts is somebody taking a lot of effort and time to made fun of the "weirdo" in the room.

Making jokes in the workplace about burning the home of somebody is funny and acceptable activity to you? Seriously?

And what was the purpose of taking the photo of the creepy guy climbing the tree, except to mock RMS? Your friend looks like a spoiled brat in that photos.

I had seen before this pattern of coworkers teaming against the smart, different guy in the room, releasing rumors about people, and all the stuff that I see in your post... all while pretending to be friendly. And I think that they are really disgusting people, to be honest.

Richmond has been a great example of how changing police policies and the way we try and "treat" crime can have a massive positive effect even when many view it as coddling or paying off criminals. most young criminals were born into a situation that led them to become who they are... If they have another financial incentive or opportunity to change many of them will. Obviously not 100%, but very few people have a dream of becoming some piece of crap criminal who adds nothing to society. The unfortunate truth is that over the last couple decades the opportunities to build yourself up from nothing without selling your life/soul to the military or some other group as I did is not nearly as achievable.
It really does! It will have perverse unintended consequences. In the field of economics, this is known as “The Cobra Effect”.

Look further up. I wasn't the one who mentioned it. I was the one who replied and said it wasn't relevant.

Then someone said I was wrong because people don't actually mix drugs like that, and I contradicted them based on personal knowledge of it happening.

Then you asked me why it matters, perhaps not realizing that I had already said it does not, further up the thread. Now you're saying it's not worth mentioning. I agree, which is why I made my original comment way up the thread, so this has become a bit circular.
Their premise seems to be to make up subpar hardware with software and I just don't see that happening. I see their predicament, they can't exactly go and make full laptops themselves, and no one in the business can have the silicon that Apple gets by virtue of paying TSMC billions.

But as it stands, Clevo is a bad partner - they are consistently years behind what even Asus, Lenovo and even Dell provide.
So long as you have the reasonable assumption that most people who shoot other people have short planning horizons, this makes sense. You provide an incentive that actually affects the people in question, and they respond.

The vast majority of people, in every community, are already influenced by incentives that are much heavier than this one; it's not gonna cause a spate of murders, because it they currently are responding to a time horizon that's driving their behaviors.
I've told many people 5hat for all the good and bad I've done in life, the one thing that worries me if there actually is St Peter is my work on the congressional maps. Not to self agrandize (sp) and what's done is done, but the impact continues to be awful for the state and the country as a whole.
Not sure about GCHQ, but in the US there is a stark left/right divide in support for intelligence agencies. Notably, if you could find similar polls from 2003, the polarization would be almost completely inverted.

I wasn't aware; that is unfortunate.
By naming it "OpenAI" they've implied what their value system is, namely point 1 in your above list. Putting "open" in the name implies libre/free/open sensibilities, in that the harm from releasing technology that could be used harmfully is outweighed by democratizing the technology and allowing everyone to use it for a variety of reasons, including for good and to combat bad actors.

Openness, in the libre/free sense, is also making sure to minimize gatekeeping or putting the creators in a position of making judgements about what's good an what's not.

All the other points you list are ancillary. OpenAI is a prime example of "open-washing". OpenAI got good will from the community by implying they were open (free/libre) and then hid behind all the other points you listed to not commit to openness.

If they wanted to have a discussion about the moral hazard of AI and their business model was to create a walled garden where only approved scientists, engineers and researchers had access to the data and code, that's their prerogative, just don't name it "OpenAI".
I now use VS code for reviewing PRs and it's easy to spot and then touch up comments.
