On a related note, hasn't this been solved by SQRL [0]?

> SQRL (pronounced "squirrel") or Secure, Quick, Reliable Login (formerly Secure QR Login) is a draft open standard for secure website login and authentication. The software typically uses a link of the scheme sqrl:// or optionally a QR code, where a user identifies via a pseudonymous zero-knowledge proof rather than providing a user ID and password. This method is thought to be impervious to a brute force password attack or data breach. It shifts the burden of security away from the party requesting the authentication and closer to the operating system implementation of what is possible on the hardware, as well as to the user. SQRL was proposed by Steve Gibson of Gibson Research Corporation in October 2013 as a way to simplify the process of authentication without the risk of revelation of information about the transaction to a third party.

I think it's a shame that there has not been a more popular adoption of this authentication method.

Treat each job as a university course you're being paid for. Most jobs, if you fuck up, nobody dies. In other words, don't kill yourself over it, it is not war. You're there to learn the material and get a passing grade.

And once you are finished learning, it is time to move on. Ask yourself regularly: What did I learn today? When day after day for several weeks your answer is "nothing", it is time to move on.

Make one or two close friends, and make friends with everyone else.

How do you decide what’s unnecessary and what’s not? It would depend entirely of what you want to communicate, and to whom.

We don’t know what Jony Ive intended with this website, but the fact that so many here are criticising it makes me quite certain that we are not the target audience.
I remember when I was using Windows 98, the media player [1] I was using is shipping with a tray icon which has a menu item written 'Save power when CPU is idle'[2]. It did exactly that (HLT thing). After ticking the menu, CPU just go cold.

It better to generate single-purpose tools, which can be reused, instead of single-use static generator, which cannot be reused.
Files sees an app trying to access the file, pings NextCloud to say "yo, is this sh* up to date?"

What does it do if you're not connected? Don't mind it checking whether the local copy is up to date, but I'd be concerned if the sync trigger is you opening the app.
I have to disagree with this. After many years of trying to ween myself off the internet, I've come to realise that it isn't solely certain services that are addicting - the internet itself is. Some things can amplify this addiction, but the common denominator (for me) is access to _limitless_ information.

Things that have amplified my internet addiction I think are access to unfiltered internet, online games, social media and porn at a very young age (since around 6 years old - I am gen Z for reference, so I've grown up with normalised smartphone/social media/gaming addiction), as well as how normal it is to be addicted to these things. The fact that I now (subconsciously) associate using a computer with the aforementioned vices means that I have come to _expect_ the dopamine hit when I use them makes doing actual work (because my job is mostly computer based) even harder.

It has got to the point to where I now do not have internet in my house because if I do, I'll just use it all day (despite having various commitments). I now only use the internet in public spaces, on public wireless. This combined with planning my days/weeks/quarter (this is essential for overcoming internet addiction IMO) seems to have solved my addiction. I still have a dumb phone for receiving calls and texts (SIM card is super-glued in) and a smartphone without a SIM card for navigation - the point is, access to information is limited.

If "for most is unlimited" you mean "most don't use up all their data", then yes. If you mean "most have unlimited data plans", then see links above.

EDIT: apologies for the statista link, it wasn't paywalling me when I first looked: it shows about 12% have unlimited data.
Many people watching this Bill take the view is that it is being used to slip back in age verification, as it attempted to do so, but failed in the Digital Economy Act 2017. In that Act, Part 3 was about a porn sites requiring an age verification proposal; not just declaring you age in some form but linking to some official data from which your age could be verified (like a credit card number). This section got dropped from the Act before it was passed and has led to a course case between the Govt and age verification companies. Now it looks like the Online Safety Bill is being used to repeal the Digital Economy Act 2017 and replace it with this new Act where the age verification requirement is slipped back in.

The Age Verification industry is lobbying hard to see their "investments" pay off this time, after being disappointed in 2017.
Yeah NatWest are majorly guilty of this. They used to phone me with a script that was like:

NW: "Hello, am I speaking to <robotmay>?"

Me: "Who's asking?"

NW: "I'm calling from the NatWest fraud team, we'd like to verify your transactions. First we need to ask some security questions: what is your account number?"

Me: :|

Online-only banks like Monzo/Starling are better at this aspect - they never seem to phone anyone, which at this point I'd consider a security feature.
As with some other movies, this critically depends on how you watch it. Immersion is key here, so you must watch it on a large screen, in high resolution (and definitely in one sitting).

Perhaps that is what makes them '10x developers': a great familiarity with their toolset and a deep understanding of the problems they are solving. In this sense I don't think it's bad to idolize them, as familiarity and understanding are achievable by many people, and they could all become a '10x developer'.
I had an APP scam attempt where I intentionally played their game (by providing fake details) to see how it would go. They were claiming I owed taxes and a legal case was underway that I could resolve by paying said taxes but I'd need to pay the money to the court-appointed lawyer/public defender (whose name & account details they provided me) and not HMRC.
"completely useless war", this is true for people living in Afghanistan. From the military perspective ability to test equipment, tactics, soldier's skills in a very difficult territory, without risking too many casulties is invaluable. No other major army has similar combat experience.

Yes, Afgan war costed a lot, but people do the math in the wrong way. The same troops would have to be fed and trained at home too, equipment had to be maintained, etc. so this kind of fixed maintenance and training costs should be subtracted from the overall Afghanistan campaign costs.
> If you are mostly reselling compute and storage be transparent where you get it from.

Genuine question: why or why not?

If someone is reselling compute with very few changes and wants to hide where it's sourced from, then i guess it's understandable from a business perspective but at the same time could indeed be considered dishonest. Is that your reasoning?

But at the same time, if someone is reselling compute with custom software or non-trivial automation around it, then i guess the software/automation itself is the product, in which case the compute is just a means to an end? At least in my eyes, if i'd be buying services from something like Mailgun, or something like Heroku, i might not necessarily care that much about where it's running from (except for maybe caring about latency). Would you agree with a statement like that?

Doesn't it all seem a bit blurred, where to draw that line of what's okay and what isn't? Is reselling compute without references to the underlying host/company not somewhat common?
The solution here is to implement your own font rasterisation library and make it render into canvas using javascript. Extra points if it's done through Web Assembly and spawns a Web Worker to render some of the more CPU-demanding glyphs in the background. Gives you that crucial control over kerning and guarantees that the pixels going to look the same across different operating systems. Not that Jony would care a lot about testing it on anything not Mac OS/iOS related though...

Side note: I love the website.
Then you are not the intended audience.
Rambus' RCD Chip Enables DDR5-5600 for Next-Gen Servers
Sales of games like this always amazed me. It seems like every year somebody tweaks a yaml config with the player details and hits build - voilà brand new game is out, time to shell out another $60.
Right now, zero, as I am using only free tiers. But my understanding is that it is expensive when you scale.

Vercel first paid plan is $20/month and FaunaDB $25/month, so my guess is a business with some traction would have to pay at least these $45/month.

Any BSD fans out there wish to persuade a happy Debian desktop user to take a BSD for a spin?
Nice. New process definitely sounds cleaner if it supports what your program does, but I think if you have open GUI windows or GPU contexts you want to keep around, the dylib route might be your only option.
First, forgive my ignorance of the JS/TS and bundler ecosystems.

> while in parallel checking for type errors.

Why are you suggesting this not be done during development? Is it bc while ESBuild is fast and runs in parallel, it's still only as fast as the slowest parallelized task, and in this case the slowest task is checking for type errors? And I assume checking for type errors is the slowest because it has to invoke an external resource, tsc?

Would it not make sense to have two development bundlers then? One for getting your code up and running quickly, and a second that outputs a dummy build artifact, but allows a more thorough production-like build that includes type checking (or other long running activities)? That way you get all the verification you would like, but don't pay a price on waiting for your code to deploy?
I mean, it's almost identical to the old Judicial Committee of the House of Lords, but with different hats. They've always done a fair amount of development of the common law. The court under Baroness Hale was maybe a little more vigorous at that than usual, the current regime maybe a little less than usual. I don't see any of it as outside the usual bounds of British jurisprudence.
Ok I'll play - Ireland?
I agree and should have said "should we assume the best of intentions by humans". Delegating decisions on freedom of speech to AI is a flawed and dangerous path.
Russia and China have nation-wide firewalls. I know that at minimum, China blocks most or all of Western social media sites. I don't want to live in a bloc of countries that blocks parts of the web "for my protection".
Does it not support dynamic imports at all, or does it just not support “dynamic dynamic imports” i.e. dynamic imports where the module path is not constant?

If it’s the latter, you could have your Inertia page resolver be a giant switch statement of every possible page, where each case is a dynamic import call with a constant module name.

Kind of a pain but I think I’d prefer that if it meant I never had to write a webpack config again.
Eni Chooses Utility Pricing for New HPC4 Supercomputer
Suing Infrastructure Companies for Copyright Violations
Smash the tech giants into many little pieces and their market power is reduced to the point that it really is private businesses and none of this matters. youtube_v1 blocks your video, touyube_v2 or v3 or whatever will have it because they are separate and not a cartel as that would be illegal.

The problem is facbook, google, apple, microsoft, etc etc are all vastly too big. If they need to be monolithic (they don't, but let's entertain the argument ) then treat them as a utility the same way we treat natural monopolies of drinking water distribution. Nationalisation is one way. Regulated return and heavily regulated business practise is another. Generally hacking it up into pieces and letting the pieces remain private is preferred when that can be done effectively.

Nobody cares that NBC didn't cover this speech. It's not interesting as a censorship question even if the omission is following the explicit political dictates of their owners (or staff). That's a better place to be all around.
Leaker Allegedly Exposes Alder Lake's Inner Workings
It should be easy to work out the point, if you weren't being completely disingenuous.

The topic of forcing platforms to remove illegal content is completely, utterly different to the topic of forcing them to host content, whether illegal or otherwise.

And in the US, the government is _not_ free to pass laws forcing platforms to host, or remove, non-illegal content, without explicitly coming into conflict with the first amendment.
Just noting that the author’s book (Real-time Collision Detection) is an incredibly well-written technical resource and is a good read for anyone trying to implement their collision detection in their game or physics engine.
I can also remember small local shops having assistants actually know what they were talking about and recommending what is best for you.
I think it can be easy to read things like this and see them as obvious scams but the fraudsters only need to trick a few people as the payout is large, and they are strongly incentivised to come up with the most optimised flow for scamming people.
The idea that a member of parliament should enjoy at least a a much freedom of speech over private media as the broader public actually deserves some challenge.

In the UK tradition, political speech in the private sphere is somewhat tightly regulated. As an MP he can’t buy advertising space on terrestrial TV; during election cycles if he is featured on TV the broadcasters are obliged to give equal time to his opponents; there are strictly limited amounts of time permitted for ‘party political broadcasts’ and they are allocated to all parties equally. So the precedent in UK law is not that MPs have unfettered access to broadcast their private speeches. Quite the opposite.

As a member of parliament he does enjoy parliamentary privilege, and the ability to put his views on the permanent public record of Hansard by delivering a speech in the Commons. That should give him quite enough of a soapbox.

It certainly doesn’t entitle him to oblige a private entity to carry his speech without comment - and any legal regime which required such a thing would be dangerously authoritarian.

When political campaigners show up at a radio station and demand to be put on the air, we don’t call that ‘normal exercise of free speech’, we call that ‘the first step in a coup’.

JS is stable. More stable than most other languages. If you have reservations about NodeJS and the precarious NPM ecosystem, then say that. But equating JS with NodeJS and its community's dubious practices just exacerbates the problem.

Micay started working on the project and got some funding from copperhead os, with the plan being that the company could provide paid support and the like.

But copperhead os broke its promises and basically hijacked the project - but Micay being a professional, he invalidated the validation keys so that existing users would not get served code not associated with him.

Afterwards he continued working on the open source project without any partnership, while copperhead os continues to take the code, add some questionable modifications to it and sell it, while badmouthing GrapheneOS.

I wouldn’t go as far as to make psychological advice on someone based on a few interactions, but seeing how people in the industry can burn out from some rude comments, being totally backstabbed does explain his behavior. Also, do note that he is a professional security expert (the upstream android project routinely takes commits from his project) and unfortunately even with the best intentions, one can create absolutely shitty distros regarding security. Being critical of them may look “competitive”, but he only wants end users safe.
This is a good point. They could optimise the site to encourage more uploads instead of engagement. Then the government can mine the data for intelligence.

Vow. That is minimalism. Clean and Simple.

Otherwise corporate website these days looks overkill, starting from that annoyingly Huge Hero banner with big image and unnecessary text. You have to scroll to bottom before you can find anything useful.

No career page though. Look like they will be hiring through referrals only or agency.
There's a risk to this as well, though - marketing becoming more important than quality, and difficulty for new products to make it into the market means stifling of innovation, which can lead to semi-monopolies. In the case of Eizo and Wacom it's probably fine, but Apple are a bit more dubious.
In fact this site and the idea was promoted heavily in the original release of the Zeitgeist movie by Peter Joseph back in 2007 and 2010. It's too bad really because the first parts of that movie minus the weird psychological intro was actually quite interesting. It was a very divisive and curious set of topics covered that caused different factions to try to debunk each other. They are still at it to this day. You can find pieces of it on youtube but now that it is a well funded movie they keep pulling it. The debates from all the people he angered are still up though. It really upset many religious communities.

Such a good opportunity for EA to mount an Anti-FIFA corruption campaign in game. Mess with some trade rules. Images of Sep Blatter bathing in the rain of cash at the press conference. Force players to choose between FI-FI-FA legacy league and the new hotness.

FIFA are corrupt from top to bottom. EA have a direct channel to a huge slab of their market to tear the FIFA politicians with their snouts in the trough a new one.

Might actually make next years' game update a lot more interesting than changing the player lists. I'd like to be less cynical about the prospects of anyone actually cleaning up corruption anywhere right now. I really would. Do you prefer Ivanka or Hunter flavours of corruption? We can't even vote that out so the Military Industrial Complex is pretty safe. No chance of health reform either. Nobody likes Ivanka or Hunter and there they go shovelling more money than you will in a decade just this month. "Now do the $other_side who are worse!"

and then partake in ritual (symbolic) cannibalism?

According to doctrine, it's more than symbolic: Catholicism teaches that bread and wine 'really' turn into flesh and blood, while only 'superficially' maintaining the appearance of bread and wine (cf Aristotle's substance theory and the difference between essential and accidental properties). So under a certain point of view, the Eucharist could indeed be considered cannibalism - however, the body of Christ is divine and cannot be digested...
I have studied Art and Craft, Electronic Art/Graphics as well as Media Art over the years. Used Cinema 4D and 3D studio Max in the past, but am in love with Blender these days. Great for Modeling, Sculpting, Animation etc. Amazing community too!!!

I do a lot of video work using Blackmagic cinema cameras and Davinci Resolve. Solid as houses, features growing with every update. Also has Fusion built in which is a powerful Compositing and FX toolset. Been tinkering with Photoshop for more years than I care to remember. Also After Affects, which is great. However I have become less and less happy with Adobe over the years, so I'am currently working on weening myself off that teet.
`eslint && tsc --noEmit && esbuild` or something like that, just simple process chaining. Means you can build something you know is going to be illegal to the TypeScript compiler, but you want to very quickly test an assumption, for example.
Steve Jobs G4 Cube 2000 Introduction
I worked in the generative trees in Zootopia and sculpting tools for the characters in Coco.

The studios are small so you’ll see everyone (higher ups less often, but you’ll see lasseter - he’s gone now though
or catmull walking around occasionally) I had the opportunity to meet lasseter once in a small group setting and he was the most intensely passionate person I’ve ever met about animation.
Hearing him speak about it almost made me cry.

The creative energy (and people) was incredible to experience. The engineers were artistically inclined and the artists were technically very smart. The mix of tech+art brings in different ways of thinking which I think contributes to the unique creativity of the environment.
CTO and lead developer on a focused project are very different jobs - my guess would be he relaxes from the very strategy and soft-skill heavy day job by diving into a challenging problem that keeps his dev chops up and lets him focus on a finite problem.

I had the same experience with them and when I told them that I'm not going to give them any information over the phone because I have no way to verify anything I was told is true so give me a phone number I can contact them to verify the transaction then I was told that I'm overly cautious and stupid phrased in a nice and British way. And the transaction they flagged was a £30 payment in a city restaurant. I'm no longer with them.
