It's only hard if an adversarial relationship is making it hard, which is exactly the case for DRM implementations. If you're writing code that runs in a trusted environment, then it is as simple as enabling decryption conditional on checking the display. That's only appears because trusted environments are nice simple places where code, file checks, system calls, CPU instructions, and all the other niceties work as intended.

Coders aren't coding all the time or even the majority of the time.

It's going to be a while before an AI can take part in a meeting between 2 project managers wrangle out a spec that makes everyone happy and then negotiate with the rest of the team to make the changes necessary.

It's going to be even longer before the AI can figure out why the site is down and bring it back up. And then figure out how to prevent the outage.

Besides that AI isn’t that intelligent yet. Training on all the jQuery code won’t yet give you an AI that can write React.

If AI writes code then now the systems become exponentially more complex exponentially faster . Unless this AI is truly human or super human it won’t keep up. If we have human level AI then coding jobs are the least of our concerns .
Did it take going to a third party and paying them to prove that there was an issue with the door, or were they able to go to a dealer? Did BMW refuse to pay for said third party? Did BMW refuse to give her a loaner and instead gave them cab vouchers? Did BMW refuse to accept the car as a return and give your parents their money back? Did BMW, after refusing to give your parents their money back delay at least 3 times to return the fixed car because they don't have insight into their own parts supply line?

Was the BMW produced using automated methods hailed as the future of car manufacture?

Because I doubt any of those are true and those all, especially in total, contribute to why this is on the ground page.

The assertion that denial of text files killed SmallTalk isn't true. What killed SmallTalk (and really limited Unix growth) was this:

Hardware cost + software cost compared to emerging cheap commodity computers. SmallTalk was expensive, and required very expensive equipment to run. So most of us either just ignored SmallTalk or viewed it as a utopian ideal that our PC IDEs could never really deliver on... but... we were making software for computers with MILLIONS of users.

So what about Unix? It wasn't until the 386 and 68030 in the later part of the 80s that the hardware finally had the features Unix really needed to be great (Xenix on a 286 was... meh but worked).

So, the idea that somehow a graphical Unix based on smalltalk would emerge... well... would have been cool... and it kind of did happen when NeXT came out with their computer... but it was Objective-C instead of SmallTalk, but most of the smalltalk on Unix dream was there.

From what I've observed as a hiker, brush clearance can be touch and go. In some regions it doesn't take many years of neglect to turn a clearing into an impassable thicket. Also, a power line can go practically up the side of a mountain, cross streams and ravines, etc.
What about the studies in the links I provided? I cited my sources. They clearly show for some groups the risk of myocarditis after vaccination is higher than covid.

Another piece of evidence. We have multiple countries that have significantly altered vaccine doses for young males or have completely prohibited using specific vaccines for certain groups. They cite the increased risk of myocarditis and other heart issues.

Can you please cite your sources? The main study I can think to support your position is the CDC study that used vaers data, but it's highly disputed.

You can't just yell conspiracy at people. You must have evidence.

We are doing real harm to people. I have no doubt in the future there will be federal funded compensation and healthcare schemes for victims. Similar to how we compensate and provide medical care for victims for nuclear related atrocities. My grandpa was one of many harmed while working at a uranium processing facility, after the DOE guaranteed its safety. He basically battled cancer all over his body for decades. I tell this story as an example of government deception, lies and media narratives that led to many many deaths and injuries. We aren't any wiser today than we were back then.
I think one can make a reasonable case that foregoing doing some natural things, and trying to force others to also forego them, on the grounds that they are immoral is the only thing that really is fundamentally different between humans and other animals.

The things that are usually cited as the fundamental differences, such as our intelligence, language, culture, etc I would argue are just differences in degree.

Knowing nothing more than what you've just told me: That doesn't sound like a bad thing, IMO; if you're using that kind of system, you probably care a lot about security, and I'm not sure I'd trust a shared-kernel system against malicious code. (I appreciate that other people may make that trade-off very differently)
The 3M Aura N95s are pretty comfortable and cost a couple dollars each at Home Depot. They're also pretty good about directing your breath away from the top so your glasses won't fog up when wearing them.

Well, forcing Safari onto users is a pretty terrible "solution" (and an abandoned cause on desktop). If Apple is going to fold halfway, they may as well just put their cards on the table. The web is already lost to Google: some 60% of all web traffic comes from Google Chrome, and that's not even counting the people using browsers based on Blink. If Apple, with 200 billion dollars in liquid cash, cannot create a browser that's good enough on it's own merits to compete with Chrome, then the battle is over. There was no war.

The dealer being a legal entity incorporated in the same state you bought the car insures that they operate under state law and makes it far easier for either the state or the individual to seek legal redress when needed.

Looking at the UK for myself.

UK National Security Requests spike is huge 6/30/2015 to 6/30/2019 https://www.datawrapper.de/_/ys8L7/

but if you look at products in eg the highest period ending 6/30/2015
https://www.datawrapper.de/_/3J2Qg/

Total of 485 most requests (291) are for google docs. Bad info sec maybe?

Looking at web search alone (national security).It does have a small spike similar sort of period in that 2016-06-30 to 2019-06-30 (in that its not been used at all in any other period! So of the 21 periods, its only been used in 7 of those periods)

Does go up to a whopping big 23 in 2017-12-31.

Beards and thick facial hair severely compromises the effectiveness of an N95.

When I was an EMT we got fitted for them in case we had to transport patients with tuberculosis or other aliments.

Firefighters and other emergency responders are generally required to shave for this reason.

Yep, exactly the same here. Even more crazy for me actually since I'm on Vancouver Island, so if anything significant does go wrong with the thing it's at least an entire day shot taking it over to the mainland to be serviced. Can't believe I ended up ordering one, but I really like it! Fingers crossed.
Intriguing New Approach for Predicting Earthquakes
I agree with you that not everything has to be done a certain way. Programs don't have to be written in C or functional programming for it to work well. But there are places where those excel in terms of performance and/or reducing complexity.

I am also not arguing that incompatible APIs will disappear with blockchain usage. But things like an EVM can be used as a template to build underlying blockchains to provide a common datastore and execution layer for multiple systems to work together. It is harder to achieve with traditional SQL databases, which shouldn't be publicly accessible.

Also an advantage I thought of is it would be harder in this case for corruption to take place in the PCR testing regime since all transactions are immutable, and transparency ensures that the public would be able to check against those if they so wish. A closed system would allow the government or participating platforms to manipulate data records for their benefit, with less chance of scrutiny.

I agree with your points about the vulnerability of smart contracts and private keys. These are challenges that I hope will continue to be addressed as we try to figure out how to make blockchains accessible for mass usage. I think that smart contracts auditing is still far from mature, but the immutable nature of contracts would allow audited contracts to remain secure, as opposed to some code running on some company's server.

In the end as with everything in life, there are trade offs. It's about picking the right tool for the right job, and to continue experimenting with potential improvements that new technologies can bring and to reduce their externalities.

My experience buying from them was a dream. Everything is done online and no haggling. The one time I did go in for service was also simple and took a couple hours.

Well, don’t get caught up in unimportant distinctions. Security vs. privacy depends on the relationships between the subject of data, the holder of data and those seeking to use the data. Consider the relationships between browser end users, Google, and the parties who provide Google’s revenue. If we want to distinguish privacy from security here, we have to argue about how to characterize these relationships and hash through the details of the flow of data. It’s pointless and unhelpful.

Off the top of my head: Nova (Panic's new code editor) and Craft are both pretty new such apps. Acorn and Pixelmator Pro are both image editors that aren't brand new, but aren't quarter-century old incumbents by any stretch. There's the whole Affinity suite of Adobe competitors. And while BBEdit is a quarter-century old incumbent, of sorts, it's pretty far from being in maintenance mode -- and it certainly has company.

It's certainly true that the center of gravity is tilting toward web apps, but not every kind of app makes a good web app, at least yet.

Yep, and they've gone up... they were about $1.20/ea when I bought my last batch.

I've been buying them from ISP: https://www.industrialsafetyproducts.com/3m-9210-aura-n95-pa...

(As a bonus, they have the 9210, which has better straps, retail you generally only see the 9205, which is ok too, but the straps are just rubber bands and they don't fit as securely.
I don't wear glasses, but an issue I've noticed while wearing N95 masks is that my eyes start crying. I've thought it could be caused by the warm breath being directed upward toward my eyes.
> Beards and thick facial hair severely compromises the effectiveness of an N95.

Yes. A little stubble, less so. (I'd wager it's still fairly effective at keeping the wearer's germs in, though.)

> When I was an EMT we got fitted for them in case we had to transport patients with tuberculosis or other aliments.

Sure, but as with the oil worker example, that's a slightly different scenario than a member of the general public going to the grocery store.
> If this was truly acceptable and not in some grey area, why doesn't Backblaze simply route all downloads through Cloudflare by default, rather than having each individual customer go through the hassle of setting this up?

Because Backblaze makes more money charging you for repeated downloads?
In fairness, in today's market "blocking haggling" is a pro consumer move because dealerships are charging above MSRP for many EVs.
Yea, I am not surprised. I actually was trying to target Pop_OS! to use as a daily on a desktop of mine, but... I had issues with the installer due to it not liking a network ethernet device I believe. I did get past that, but then I had an issue with wanting to use btrfs for snapshot features - the installer though does not setup your partitions correctly for that.

It felt like Pop_OS! went out of their way to rewrite the own custom installers and then just decided not to support btrfs for whatever opinionated reason? I dunno - but it made me rather unhappy with the situation and I switched back to my Ubuntu Budgie distro of choice. Sad - because I would have dog fooded Kinto.sh seriously on Pop_OS! had they supported btrfs properly w/ snapshot support. Most Ubuntu based distros don't change the installer so much that proper btrfs support is broken.

I do support them though and may purchase one of their laptops in the future and sure - I would love to work for System76 - despite not yet using their OS on anything besides a VM. I do think they get a lot right, and love that they open sourced their BIOS for their laptops. We need more companies like them selling Linux pre-installed.
The bug was filed in November. More than enough time for a fix. Eventually you have to go public to force Apple’s hand.
This is a decent read. It's funny to read that the the CCP did a literal translation of German Marxist texts including its propensity for long convoluted sentences --which is the opposite of most Chinese styles --but that dovetailed nicely into the idea of the four olds.

It's also quite interesting that one of the motivations to simplify the writing system wasn't so much to make it easier to learn but rather to make it difficult to read pre-communist texts once you raised literacy --which they did in order to achieve better indoctrination.
I think they are using AI in gaming terms, not literally AI. I hear NPC behavior in games being called AI since… more or less ever.

Your second paragraph is not totally correct though and that’s actually what the article is about. It explains how “run away” is implemented and why this implementation leads foxes to interesting places more often than you would expect by simply running around.

BTW what do you mean by “navigate the navmesh like the player”? The player is unaware of the navmesh, am I reading your comment wrong?
Woke culture had a purpose but it has become a victim of its own success. The author of the SA article clearly wants to carve out science as biased by the mere fact of asserting that all genes are not equal. They seem to think we are all perfectly one as capable as the other in all things. That is insanity. It leads to a spiral of blame and anxiety as we see ourselves as nothing but victims of the world at large and that we're helpless to do anything about it.
Well, three, "how many bytes do I get if I open it and read all the bytes out". Or maybe four, how many bytes do I get if I open it and read all bytes which aren't holes (ie. how many bytes do I need to put into an archive that supports sparse files) :)

Yeah, I know they are aware of the concept. It's just that they are mandating masks, but barely mentioning the facial hair issue outside of a few publications that, lets face it, basically nobody reads. It just screams politics over actual safety.
This has been studied. A beard does compromise the seal, but to a lesser extent on n95s than in other masks:

Just got around to looking at that Stack Exchange thread, and I'm reminded why I dislike that site so much:

It's full of PLPs (Pedantic Little People, or you can substitute a different P-word for "people"). And why is it full of PLPs? They get little brownie points for answering, and when you get to certain levels, then you're allowed to do even more! So they compete with each other and downvote your answer for, well, pedantic reasons.

I suppose this site has some of that, but it's not nearly as obnoxious.

Anyhow: I finally found a teacher who played standards, and actually studied with George Shearing! But they're few & far between.
I have an old oryx4 (intel8th gen/ nvidia graphics). Its my daily driver. Its been quite durable, (I did have to replace a fan which wasn't too bad. In fairness I think my environment may have caused that. But its basically a clevo model laptop rebadged, so getting a part wasn't bad.).

The screen/keyboard/ trackpad are decent. It can run steam/ unreal engine/ jetbrains/). Lots of ports. Its a great development machine. Its always been great with the auto updates and software installs for the most part. (although right now, its in some state where its got some libc packages ahead of where the next upgrade thinks it should be. so it fails.... my first real linuxy state issue).

My main gripes are battery life when using the nvidia graphics and having to reboot to switch from nvidia to intel. For me its mostly a lugable hooked up to external monitors. They have a "hybrid mode" now, but when I tried last year it didn't seem to be great. Battery is much much better without the graphics card running.

I'd buy another.
I would suggest these two as a crashcourse to the math that is used in SDR:

We are maintaining a long list with theory/math: https://brmlab.cz/event/dsp#zdroje , and engineering stuff: https://brmlab.cz/project/sdr/start#links . However, I agree it is rather difficult to get into the topic. I'm playing with SDRs for almost 10 years (increasingly "fulltime" lately), and we still need to employ a professional mathematician to help me with some advanced problems.

Scientists spent several years trying to convince the powers that be that Covid spread was airborne.

>In an open letter published today (July 6 2020), 239 scientists from 32 countries urge the World Health Organization and other bodies to address the potential for airborne transmission of the coronavirus. The authors write that a growing body of evidence suggests “beyond any reasonable doubt” that the virus spreads indoors through tiny aerosols—a finding that should be reflected in the WHO’s recommendations.
